That scream and axe attack combo is incredibly powerful. Makes me want to jump back into the game before the dlc.

[@moodybastard170]

The way Gideon's "I need help" cut off at the end was hilarious.

[@kubomagico8853]

I'm impressed with Rennala. When she have perfect RNG she destroies. Rennala weakened Black Blade Kindred's magic resistence with the moon then showered him with her magic that deals the most stance damage and then she fired the Commet Azure. All this while dodging all his attacks. Just impressive.

[@kubomagico8853]

He almost won against Raikard as well

[@aperson9847]

It's really a shame she decided to summon right there when one more spell would have won the fight for her.

[@karamuto1565]

I knew that thing was an absolute monster when I met it. But this is insanity.

[@hitlord]

Rennala somehow always impresses me at these. She's absurdly weak, but somehow her AI defaults to the perfect attacks in almost every single video. Enemy is big? Spam Star Shower. Enemy is small? Spam Comet and Crystal Barrage. Enough distance from either? Comet Azur. Seriously, it's incredible. She doesn't miss a beat. I thought BBK would annihilate her, instead he almost died. Edit: Need to say this though: The Gargoyles weapon change animations are SUPERB. Seriously, I never get tired of seeing them. Edit 2: Surprised to see Malenia's Rot work even on immune creatures.

[@bacicinvatteneaca]

I mean, she's supposed to be a naturally superhumanly intelligent human, getting INT levels we can only reach by leveling up (which she can't do) to extreme extents

[@davidnewhart2533]

Malenia's rot didn't work on Kindred. Kindred was taking damage from the aoe attack.

[@hitlord]

@@davidnewhart2533 It did, you can see two damage ticks happening while he's in the AoE.

[@62swordsmen]

Though I do wish she's used her Moon Attack more often, its the only thing that could get her out of sticky situations and the attack itself is no slouche, she could probably stun most of the bosses with how much damage it can do to the poise. If she took advantage of that more when an enemy is coming at her with their strongest attack, I'd guarantee you she'd have as much wins as Malenia

[@reapordeath]

​@hitlord the aeonia has tick damage, you literally cannot rot these guys, there's nothing TO rot.

that glowing attack that seems to delete half the bosses healthbar at once is legitimately absurd

It's supposed to have a knock up effect so on smaller enemies it only procs once, but since most bosses can't smacked skyward they take dozens of tics

That’s funny even the black blade kindred dies around the same time I die during the malenia boss fight 😂

[@CursedPR]

You should buff The HP of Baleful Shadow and have him fight the bosses to see how he holds up. Or maybe have him as is, and pair him up with Alecto The Black Knife Ringleader and see if bosses can survive the duo.

[@manowa3395]

Alternatively, let's run Blaidd through the gauntlet and scale him up to the bosses. lol

BBK was probably the single hardest fight in the game for me. How much he loved and his type of attacks especially with the polearm always just wrecked me. So super satisfying see him beat down so many bosses.

It's less about the raw power against a player and more about the hitting power of the moveset, against a player they're not that terrible once you have it down.

Okay… I understand Gideon did not survive… but up until his showcase no boss enemy survived that one move done onto them, and Gideon ate that same move like as if the DPS didnt exist. Gotta give him style points for tanking that.

[@solutartxiv]

as well as taking more damage because of knowledge above all

[@handtomouth4690]

That's because Gideon is basically just a NPC player, and so gets knocked down and gets i-frames from being knocked down, unlike every other boss. Kindreds strength comes from multi-hitting attacks with destined death effect.
