Bosses like Sistsr Friede,Sword Saint Isshin,Ludwig the holy blade and Slave knight Gael are better than anything Elden ring has to offer. Before you say something about nostalgia I wanna make this clear: I started with Elden ring and then went back and played the other games. In the days before the SOTE release I went back and played every souls game and their DLC.

FS was making a statement when they had Midra impaling his own hand while withdraw8ng the sword. The pain a normal person would've felt in their hand didn't even register for Midra because of the level of torture he's endured up too that point which is evident when you see every barb of that sword mpaling every part of his torso and sticking out off his skull. Who knows how centuries or even millennia been impaled with the Sword of Damnation. It was apparently bad enough that he was to tear, not cut, his own head off just to get the sword out

[@n_mu6572]

This is obviusly what tarnished can do in the frenzied flame ending and i really think this makes the tarnished frenzied flame ending to be non canon or not the main ending since the original lord of frenzied flame is this guy

[@sneaklone_]

Nope, the erdtree was burnt once before, and it was by this guy. Frenzied flame ending is also canon

[@lordmiow]

Frenzied Flame is canon by all means and theory speculation out there. There's no other way because it was part of embodiment One Great as a whole with other Outer Gods that prophesize Land Between would be cleanse, melt and then reshaping it back in cycle.

[@Theamz]

The DLC is implied to take place before the ending of the main game since some NPCs call the protagonist “Tarnished” and “aspiring lord” meaning that we haven’t fought the Elden beast yet. Obviously the game just came out and we haven’t discovered every piece of lore to place the dlc on the timeline but so far we have an idea.

[@knatspray]

This guy was close to completing the path of the Lord of Frenzied Flame. He failed and was more than punished for doing so. Impaled through every part of his body and cast into the same abyss that all madness goes. He retained his abilities, but Nanaya tells him to endure where he lays.

[@trissi4468]

So the Borderlands PR team argument actually holds up to this fight. A lot of previous titles, and even the base game for Elden Ring, had the quintessential "Forgive me, Zanzibart" character. My first time fighting him I snickered when he said this and then I was enraptured by a videogame character that perfectly embodied madness and gave me a new favorite music score.

This is so amazingly cool. This dlc's bosses were just stupendous

[@BlacklistedSoup]

They cooked

[@migs192]

Tbh it'd be cool if he inflicts madness if you were too close to him. That will keep you from spamming melee attacks on him and make the usage of summons not too op. Granted he is considered too weak to be the Lord of Frenzied Flame (lore wise) but imagine, if someone like him is already that dangerous, that'd make Melina's reaction toward the Lord of Frenzied Flame all the more meaningful. Also that ultimate move where he shines and crashes down and sets the ground ablaze, it's so weird they didn't make the burning ground inflict madness if you just walk in it before the fire goes out.

[@TheReclaimers]

I’m pretty sure the sole intention of Midra’s fight is to make the player get as close as possible, as his ranged Frenzy attacks are horrifying. And Frenzy build-up from being too close just doesn’t sound fun

[@migs192]

@@TheReclaimers boluses will help with that and the madness build up should not be too fast. Just about as fast as it recedes when you're not building up madness. The idea just really pairs well for someone with a madness inducing sun for a head and it would still be fun cause you're facing against a Lord of what is one of the most badass endings in the game. Some urgency and carefulness when fighting such a being tickles the mind and emotions. Also let's say the distance that inflicts madness could be... maybe when you're practically touching him. But despite my ideas I doubt they'd change his AI now or ever.

[@GetenIce]

I agree, there should be a very slow madness buildup that gets slightly faster the closer you are Madness doesn’t even do that much damage so I don’t think it would be unfair, you could even make the effect start when he does the head slam Either way he’s an amazing boss

[@GetenIce]

@@migs192 I agree madness damage doesn’t inflict that much and I love the idea of feeling like your on a timer before the madness takes over vs the literal god of Madness it’s not like his health is that big or his attack strings are insanely fast I think it would’ve been perfect

[@nintendoman8915]

Just so you all know that despite him being the weakest lord, he was already burning the room around. Let's say in an alternate timeline, the tarnished failed right. This guys power would slowly accumulate over time to actually destroy the world. And by destroy, I mean destroy. So, in the second phase, when the music is basically telling us. He cannot leave the room, otherwise he will destroy everything and anything. It really makes you think if the weakest flame of frenzy in its infancy could do this. How power must we be as we are pretty fit to be lord of frenzy flame.

True. Our player, being someone who was strong enough to beat Radagon and the Elden Beast, is likely a much, much stronger vessel for the frenzied flame. People don't realise that the frenzied flame doesn't magically make you stronger. Even in game, it only gives you a certain kind of power, the power to destroy the erdtree. But you still have to be strong on your own. You still need to have a high faith and mind stat even to use frenzied flame incantations, which you can still do without the frenzied flame anyway

Well no. I think its more like Nanaya was a Finger Maiden for the Frenzied Flame,in Nanaya's Torch another failed FF Lord is contained. The Hornsent absolutely HATE FF,so they raided Midra's Mansion,killing Midra's followers( the beheaded corpses at the front door). But he was not strong enough to be a vessel for FF,so Nanaya ordered/cursed him to "endure". ( Also could be a Irina situation,where Nanaya was his wife but the FF assumed her identity). The hornsent could not kill him,so they put that Golden barbs into him to contain the FF(Remembrance Greatsword description). When we arrive,he pull that shiet out and goes full Frenzy.

@@005kakiu3 I noticed that too. After he ascends his body language is absolutely rapturious, like he's in ecstacy with every swing of his sword.

I love how when Midra is in his mortal form, he is hunched, rigid, with jolting movements and an anguished voice filled with pain. But when he lets the Lord of Frenzied Flame finally inhabit his body, he suddenly becomes so graceful, with this regal air about him and beautifully destructive power. He never utters another word. It's such a cool contrast, showing how the man was burned away, and all that remains is a puppet to be controlled.

[@calmack6637]

do you think that means we are essentially fighting shabriri/ god of chaos’ vessel?

Him doesn't talk probably because his head are gone

​@@calmack6637 I think so. It is definitely not the god himself, so we are only end up seeing a fraction of his power, but even still we get quite a show

@@TheYogmister it is said he wasn't strong enough to be called a proper lord, he rejecting it while the player seeks and embracing it. Frenzied Flame wants a host that brings about its motives not denying it.

[@ashes336]

I love how Midra and the Lord of Frenzy Flame tarnished move in a slow, almost graceful manner which heavily contrasts the frenzied, manic movement of other enemies afflicted with the flame of frenzy. It just shows that they don’t suffer from the effects of frenzy, they actively embrace it.

[@PR1ME98]

So from what I getting here is that he was about to be consumed by the frenzied flame but imbedded that MASSIVE barbed sword in himself so the sheer pain and agony stopped him from succumbing to it. But in the cutscene he basically went “fuck it, forgive me, I can’t handle this shit anymore” and let it take over. Damn…..Flame of frenzy be fucking everything up :/

[@dinolover]

Can you blame him? Imagine dealing with this shit for years and then some insanely strong freak comes and kicks your ass in 4 hits. You'd say "fuck this shit" too

[@lordofshades9852]

Actually he didn't do that to himself, the hornsent around his mansion raided it, killed almost all of the people inside but couldn't kill this guy. Instead they just shoved a giant growing sword in his skull so it can be his prison

[@1umbreon4life]

yeah, what the person above me said. the swords description goes into more detail, but it looks as though the Inquisition (led by Jori) used it as their most brutal form of execution, involving embedding a spike into someone, which would then grow and pierce the victim from the inside. You see the basic spikes embedded in the line of bodies in front of the Manse, which gives you an idea of just how much the one used on Midra has grown.
