Elden Ring - Streamers Reaction to Commander Gaius (My Gameplay Shown at the End With Build)

This is one of the few bosses that immediately punish you for summoning or drinking anything right after the fog gate. Like he will charge you and instantly delete 80% of your life bar and you can't dodge while doing other actions (though the charge is near impossible to dodge anyway).

not really the correct way, just the easiest. the boss' is fine, ppl just have fragile souls veteran egoes and cant handle precise dodge timing to avoid AOEs and good dodge direction, most of these ds3 ad bb veterans can only spam r1s and jumping attacks while backwards dodging in terror whenever an elden ring boss flinches lol. hopefully fromsoft dont nerf this boss to appease souls veteran egoes like what they did to radahn.

If they literally changed his charge attack to only include the front of the tusk it would literally solve so many issues.

That is true 99% of the time. Gaius genuinely has some wonky hit boxes. And then there is something to be said about screen clutter making some bosses way harder for no real reason. The final boss, for instance, has a lot of particles that fly around and blind you. Same thing for a certain boss at the top of a mountain.
