How To Defeat Dragonlord Placidusax - Elden Ring Boss Gameplay Guide

[@ghxulish]

I hate that i have to go all the way down and lie down again just to try again💀

[@silverfreddy3328]

Right?? Lol

[@Addict10r]

is there no stake of marika?

[@frankbonham282]

Same. 😭

[@nunyabizwacks6711]

@@Addict10r nope :(

[@benhack3318]

On god it’s the walk of shame

[@highinTokio]

some bosses really need a stake of marika nearby...

[@w0nky]

no because the way you just dodged his laser beams EFFORTLESSLY its honestly wild. I can bust him up good but that is the ONLY attack that gets me

[@dakotadavis1210]

I swear to god bro

[@Huntxrd]

yup, same here haha

[@skylergambill1986]

SAME.... infuriating.

[@rambro1stbud]

This was probably the only boss in the entire game that frustrated me for HOURS. But, without spoiling too much, I had stumbled into a "bad" ending and really wanted to undo it. There's a feeling you get when you take down a hard boss in a FROMSoft game that few other developers can replicate.

[@smurfaccount555]

its currently pissing me off

[@rvanmidlum]

Same here! Malenia was easy compared to this fight 😅 she only took me 3 tries... this dragon frustrated me for days! Just finished the bastard 😏🤟 tho it was frustrating as can be... the fight was epic! And the boss animations were the best of the game for me 😄👌🏼

[@A_MF_Bird]

To use the needle you just need to be in the arena, you don’t have to kill it.

[@rambro1stbud]

@@A_MF_Bird Yes, absolutely right. But killing the boss is an achievement, so it's worth doing anyway if you're going for platinum, which I eventually did.

[@A_MF_Bird]

I’m going for the plat so I killed it too. Just fortissax as my last remembrance

[@monkeywithachainsaw]

He really does try his best to finish you off, this is the bos I've died the most to after getting their hp down to less than 10% it really feels like he's frantically trying to stop you from beating him

[@buddy305luv9]

This guy got me 5 times during my first playthrough. Dragon lighting claw got me all the time because you don't know when he's coming back around after the smash. Great tip on the frost. It helped a lot.

[@TTT3-]

It took me two mins because I had the black blade and mimic tear it was so overpowered

[@theretrobanjo3513]

Ill never hear this boss name again without giggling thanks to screamer

[@LoztEvel]

Thank you so much man. I fought him 100 times and after this I was finally able to get him.

[@omarramadan1115]

yeah after this u can get him after 98

[@neondouble_]

This fight is only shit because you have to walk 8 miles through a bunch of birds to get back

[@aglioeolio8494]

Bruh theres a site of grace not far from there. Why are u so far away dawg??😭

[@brianhollon178]

Bro!! You saved me with this video! Beat him the first time after watching! Thanks a bunch!

[@WindexMartini]

The fucking lazers man, get me every time! 🤦‍♂️

[@Lukanky_]

Your tips were really helpful for this fight! Im a first time souls player and after cheesing Malenia with maxed out mimic tear I decided to beat a boss without summons for the first time to really experience the intensity of the game. Plasidusax was tough tbh but after about 7 tries I finally beat him which also helped me in improving my fighting and boss reading skills in general. Really great video keep it up :)

[@HedwigGuerra]

Such a cinematic fight. Awesome tips as always ! He does look like two fingers when you enter the arena.

[@YScourgeOfTheStars]

Hey man great video I realised why I was dying getting him rlly low, I kept facing him head on, rarely going behind him if ever. That left him able to try his big attacks rather than trying to get back face to face. After giving him the run around I got him easily (easily being an exaggeration)

[@KinGJayHey]

just watched your fire giant guide lmao now im stuck on this boss. wish me luck hopefully i can beat him tonight

[@KinGJayHey]

beat him LETS GOOOOO

[@theJOSHfeed]

Hahaha, well done man!

[@shanekuntz6383]

Your video helped me the most, thank you my man!!!

[@theJOSHfeed]

Happy to help!

[@rvanmidlum]

Thanks for the vid! It helped me remain my calmness after days of frustration fighting this epic animated boss 😙👊

[@Syn217]

Appreciate the guide. I was able to kill him!! But we both ended up dying at the end so I didn’t get any runes lol

[@Rewardcrazyv]

This mans name got me messed up

[@gganu1234]

Great guide thanks...I think dragons and death rite birds are clunky boss fights , its hard to see what they are doing due to camera issues and their attacks can basically kill you in a couple hits and some attacks are 1 shot kills...this falls under the criticism of just being unfair and feels cumbersome instead of enjoyable. I love the game overall, but fights like this I have no desire to do in NG+, just not fun.

[@grimreefer213]

There’s a lot of fun enemies and bosses in this game but the dragons are not one of them. The dragons in Elden Ring suck

[@jpthedrummer4258]

Agreed

[@suzannev12]

This is so fun to watch, so much happening at once. It's almost beautiful. I love all the extra info you give. Lore run some time?

[@oni_jpg117]

DAAMN you made that look easy😭😭😭 im currently stuck on him lol this will really help

[@theJOSHfeed]

Good luck out there!

[@oni_jpg117]

@@theJOSHfeed I just beat him!!🤣🤣thanks to the running to the left to get behind that fire 🔥 thank you lol

[@theJOSHfeed]

Good job oni!

[@oni_jpg117]

@@theJOSHfeed thanks! Lmao 🤣that took too damn long lol

[@theJOSHfeed]

He has a lot of health and does a lot of damage, but a seriously cool boss all the same

[@Elgarnan1]

My second favorite Dragon Fight of all time across all games. Rivaled only by Midir

[@jasond1775]

Midir is probably my all time favorite fight in all their souls games (haven’t played Sekiro)

[@30vortec]

Getting ready for this fight . The last trophy I need for my first platinum trophy evaaaa

[@1CED_OUT]

I almost beat him before watching this but out of no where he decided to stomp me when he was on a smidge of health

[@rossedwardmiller]

I lost to him many times and got him first try after watching this vid. Great work.

[@theJOSHfeed]

Happy I could help

[@BK.338]

Duel wielding black knife actually does a decent amount of damage and lowers a good chunk of his hp

[@vladimirzatopek]

Thank you for help! 🤝

[@dbuk-gh5zk]

bro thank you so much!!!! I was getting destroyed by his fire lazer beams.

[@Whyiseveryhandletaken6942]

Before I fought placidusax, I thought the runback to Rennala was the worst of them all.

[@darkguardian830]

This fight is epic 👏 😎

[@nicobenji0248]

Thank you finally understand how to dodge his dragon lazer lol

[@TheSandkastenverbot]

I hate Placidusax. You can't reach him from afar, he one-shots me with 50 vigor when I go near and everything I tried does a fraction of the usual damage 🤬

[@captkalik]

Envoy longhorn bubble shower can melt This boss , the drop Rate of the weapon isn’t great but it took me 20 Min to get it and its bubble shower ability melts dragons especially this one

[@MrNomad1978]

Love your Elden Ring videos man; you helped me defeat the Fire Giant!

[@taudream8126]

He likes this boss. 🤝

[@Bdog-kx5wp]

What is the closest grace to this boss? I don’t think it would be beside the great bridge… or would it?

[@Ziaurelijus]

It is,just from grace go back lift down

[@Southsidebum]

Turn around pull lever ride down run passed enemy carefully drop down run down ledges lay down now we try again

[@ncgsupreme]

Nice tips but I don’t think I can get pass the teleportation spam

[@ncgsupreme]

just beat ‘em

[@Xenemachine45627]

I've been using the black flame to great effect but I keep getting killed by the dragon lasers.

[@gnielsen07]

Use a tear that negates damage in your mixed physick, and use perfume bottles that negate damage when he does his laser bullshit. It saved me

[@danieldavis127]

I broke my game i went ng+1 and a site of grace was on the island as soon as i spawned in the world so i fast traveled there hoping to skip some stuff and it immediately puts me in his boss fight every time i die no site of grace no anything i just spawn right infeont of him

[@paindonthurt8217]

[@NeonBanshee00]

Almost had him then those fuckin yellow laser beams 1 shot me

[@HuwPewPew]

Video starts at 2:00

[@Nuggyboiiii]

what weapons is he using?

[@wil_d3nn012]

What weapons ??

[@jamesinglis6616]

Placidoooosax

[@mynamesjeff347]

This one is really stupid , just can't hurt it or move fast enough

[@brianpoole7581]

They make it hard to summon co-op also. You can do it, if you message some people

[@Clee_toress456]

This boss is so aesthetically pleasing. However, lord have mercy his entire move set is complete AIDS

[@rsk2735]

I feel like I cheated just maxed out the black blade and summoned a mimic tear and he died fast as hell😭

[@tztpandagamingyt6327]

I took him down in seconds trying whilst trying different weapons, I have a max malikeths blade and using destined death over and over took the fight less than 2 minutes

[@MonkeyDLuffy-ed4fj]

This boss is harder than Malenia because the mimic tear is useless in this fight

[@Miiasuii]

Thank you so mich i beat him now thank you😊

[@weebobo955]

God skin peller is easy killer for all big bosses

[@robinmartin4162]

Now imagine it on my ng3 bow only...... it's frustrating but I have super light load dodges haha

[@PokerIsLife13]

I’m fighting him right now and I swear he has a move that gives him health back… am I wrong?

[@theJOSHfeed]

He has no healing in any of his moves, no. He does have a lot of health overall though.

[@edmartinez925]

For me just 2 tries. I used the black knife tiche ash, godslayer greatsword, and the lion greatbow with radahn's spear. I've barely beat that boss with very little hp left and used up all my hp flask.

[@universe6princeofsaiyans]

Its Pluh-sid-uh-sax ... not Plass-ah-doo-sax

[@theJOSHfeed]

Yes, that's the joke.

[@nocapjustkickz1982]

got em on the 6th try. Comet azure ftw!

[@D91Mart]

Oh just dodge thats all you have to do its that easy.

[@braindeadlogistics]

placid-doo-sax XD

[@Gideontheallspamming]

I’m over level I need 200k to level up and he gives 300k I gain 1 level from him I’m probably over level.

[@isaiahrodriguez2208]

DO THE ROAR !

[@mohramdhan707]

This guy only beat me 2 times, mostly i died 8 times try to reaching the rest place

[@sinisterblades7609]

The hardest thing about this dragon is his name tbh

[@rock_is_gud]

Ngl for Somereason I can't kill radgin or elden beast but I can placidusac

[@SurfingSushi12]

ohh my gawd yo burcher the name lol

[@dakotadavis1210]

The lazers can not be dodged I don’t care dude. It’s the ONLY hard thing about this boss. They made it relatively easy to get its health down but as SOON as I’m about to beat it the lazers come out and I get one tapped. Absolutely ridiculous

[@urbanmarinecc]

beep boop

[@NyxJinxxx]

His fire does touch his tail and this video really doesn’t help at all lol😂 seriously clickbait

@@solidfeline9093 that it doesn’t actually show any useful info.

[@solidfeline9093]

@@NyxJinxxx what would you consider useful info

[@jasond1775]

The numerous replies of people saying they got it first try after watching the video suggests otherwise. Who trolls guide videos??

@@jasond1775 man you reply ok a video that’s 4 months old and think I care, fuck off millennial this guide doesn’t work lol

Mimic just use mimic

Bro in my 8th try he only had about 300hp mofo just kept teleporting then suddenly only one strike and my entire health bar is gone 🫠💀
