Ephesians‬ ‭6:10‭-‬18 says, Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless.

I think the amazing part about Igon is that alongside how much he hypes us up for this fight and helps us, we are also helping him. This is a quest for retribution, and when it's done we brought Igon's soul peace. It's literally as he says, his body is broken beyond repair but his spirit endures to fight with us. It's one of the most beautiful NPC questlines From has done and despite Igon dying it's a very happy and cathartic ending for his questline.

[@vermillion6159]

Agreed. Everyone likes to say how depressing most Souls NPCs are and how their questlines often end in a tragedy, but Igon (like Alexander for example) gets to go out with peace of mind, which is enough to make it a "good ending" to me.

[@GentlemanMudkip]

There was a comment I saw that I fully agree with. With how a lot of NPC questlines end typically in fromsoft games, Igon and Ansbach have the two most legit "Good" endings to their quests. Both ultimately are about retribution and they both achieve it in the end with your help, and pass away with their souls at rest for doing what was right.

I usually try to solo bosses without summons, but after a while I realized this boss was too frustrating to be fought alone so I decided to summon this guy, and BOY am I glad I did. Definitely feels like the way the boss is intended to be fought.

[@Domihockeyrocky]

Agreed

[@Random__Dude.]

To be honest I'm still too proud to summon him. But I maked a compromise with myself : if I'm able to nearly defeat Bayle at least 2-3 times with a flask left ,than I'm sure I'm able to defeat him solo. This way I had it my way but I also wouldn't miss out this amazing NPC.

[@The_Beverage_Stand]

as far as I am concerned any summon who's sign is actively *inside* the boss arena, (Igon at Bayle, Hornsent and Jolan at Messmer, Thollier at the putrescent knight etc. .) are fair game, they are *meant* to be summoned as the fight is part of their character arc

The timing of many of the lines was well synced with the music, specially 'There is life in me yet", the laugh before the "piteous Igon" part and his final laugh. Also love how in the "piteous Igon" part you can tell he's pushing away his pain by putting on a mask of bravado and laughing louder and louder.

I gave up on the dlc. I really wanted elden ring to be the first souls game I finally beat, but I gave up due to the difficulty spike at the start of the dlc. But hearing the absolute madlad Igon cackle in the face of his fear makes me feel some kind of resolve deep in my chest. Man was beaten into nothing, and still managed to find the strength to keep fighting, so I'll do the same

[@jesusojeda7850]

Just make a mad dash for some of the early scardutree fragments, that will help you a lot. I can understand if you don't like guides, but you could check a video to get the ones you can pick right away without going in to any legacy dungeon or advancing the story, with that you can easily reach lvl. 5 in like 10 minutes.

[@marcguerra1006]

The pain…. The exquisite pain

[@lourensss4692]

You can still farm runes in base game and get stronger, don't give up yet! Even it you go way over levelled it's fine. Get some more levels and upgrade your stuff, you can even summon and have a blast with coop. It's your journey, take it slow one step at a time you don't have to make it difficult and unenjoyable for yourself. Try dex-arc + rivers of blood, most enemies and bosses suffers bleeding a lot, that katana has fire damage too. I believe in you!

[@Evoke-Chaos]

I think the way they built up Bayle and how he looks, his whole level, the jagged peaks, the closer you get to the summit the more intense the atmosphere and of course Igon, makes him the scariest boss in elden ring, maybe all of fromsoft's games. Even the way he shows up at the arena is terrifying!
