Crucible Knight Duo VS Bosses - Elden Ring

[@virael3801]

Gotta love how both Godfrey and his army have insane poise/poisebreaking

I knew Crucible Knights were taller than Tarnished, but seeing them beside Gideon was crazy.

crazy? i was crazy once, they locked me in a room, a rubber room, a rubber room with rats, and rats make me crazy.

Everyone is taller than Tarnished (except maybe the midget militia). Even rotting corpses and commoners. My headcanon is that Tarnished all have Napoleon's complex, that's why they are so ambitious.

Seeing these two kick everyone’s ass makes me feel better about being terrible at this game

[@daeryxaqueryx]

I hated having to fight them, but I mad respect their skills--they're tactically very smart, have incredible poise, and have these tanky shields that diminish most incants and spells you throw at them. And their armor set is primo badass. They're very dominating against most humanoid enemies, but the problem is when they face giant monstrous enemies with huge AOE attacks, their speed is a negative against them. If they were able to spam their winged incantations more often to dodge the AOE attacks , they probably could take down most giant enemies.

[@Peter_mikaelson]

[@adammclaughlin845]

@daeryxaqueryx Mad respect for a Crucible Knight appearing right near the start of the game when virtually no-one will be able to beat it? It's considered skilled when a boss reads your controller input, doesn't have a stamina bar and moves straight from one attack to another in a way the player can't? In that case this is the best boss ever.

[@BleachSkyWalker]

@@adammclaughlin845that's how boss AI works lmao,almost every enemy reads your controller input and also i didn't find crucible knight unbeatable at the start,maybe you're just bad at the game?

Jesus, I remember spending hours over several gaming sessions getting through the Aurizia tomb, dodging those hell-forsaken chariots and then having to fight these two chad units at the end. It was so effing exhausting and infuriating that after I finally defeated them, I had my character slowly walk outside the tomb entrance, sit down at the edge of a cliff, and just stare mindlessly at the scenery for about ten minutes.

I'm happy that they made Radagon and Elden Beast a shared fight because that is how it is in the game. So doing a BvB should include both because they are an endurance boss fight. Similar to how we keep both duos for godskin

Agree! Radagon should have that beast on his back!

Totally agree, they’re not two separate bosses, splitting them up would be like splitting up God Devouring Serpent and Rykard

Personally I’d have preferred second phase radagon which could of been queen marika but from a lore prospective the Elden beast is cool

[@jaym5880]

​@@ghostlyswat12What if we still had the elden beast fight, the only difference is that the beast is emerging out of the cracked body of radagon and both are acting on their own. Kind of like the Twin Princes in dark souls 3, radagon does the melee and the elden beast does the ranged while still keeping radagons ranged abilities, parry and grab.

[@592Johno]

Yep, these ones do appear to be the Farum Azula ones and you'd be correct in thinking that they're stronger than the regular ones because (outside of bosses) they have about 1.85x the HP of the next regular Crucible Knight you can find (the Leyndell ones) at 5,512 HP compared to 3,000 HP. Can't speak on their damage, but it's also a fair bit higher iirc.
