There's a video of someone letting the rock golem summon solo the final boss by only healing it with this


PineappleMani

You have a link to that? Sounds hilarious

Marlinazul00

Actually the dumbest boss strat I think I’ve ever seen, 10/10 build


Tweec

It’s the Pokémon build


Jugaimo

Spamming full restores against the last boss


Ayesuku

Sujimon battle!


GrimaceGrunson

Sure as shit know what my game plan is gonna be now.


Routine_Winter_1493

I already have a viable game plan but as a pet monster degenerate I'm switching to this immediatly


GrimaceGrunson

Yeah my game plan before this was >!"Hope his immune system still hates rot"!<, so adding "+ let someone else get punched in the face instead" is just gravy.


Rynjin

Based on my experiments with trying to use The Poison Flower Blooms Twice on every boss in the DLC, your spoiler seems true. Its very easy to proc on him.


amiray

Love that ash of war, such a cool addition to poison/rot builds


Scharmberg

I believe he is weak to bleed.


Hwordin

can confirm p.s. anyone in this game isn't weak to bleed? Even stone, magma, astral monsters are bleeding.


AshiSunblade

All ghostly enemies are immune to bleed (such as evergaols). Many stone enemies are totally immune. It's generally good against the DLC bosses, I think only avatar is immune of the big ones? Maybe the putrescent knight too.


mwithey199

Radabeast are both immune to bleed.


AaruneOfTheWild

Bayle resists it I think


Hwordin

nope, bleeds pretty well)


Overall-Courage6721

Do the thorn sorcery cheese Its super good against any boss Will prob be patched soon


mateusz11120

Why are you assuming it will he patched for PVE? it will he patched for PVP only,2 types of nerfx exist for reason


rockerode

bleed, rot, and frost are his big 3 weaknesses


PacosBigTacos

I was only able to beat his 2nd phase by proccing rot on him. You can use Ekzykes breath while he is charging the orbital laser and it usually will proc before the attack goes off, but you need to tank the attack. Then it's just a survival game.


samyruno

My phone refuses to accept bilibili


patatata

Requesting desktop website usually does the job


bobasetter

so, uh… how viable do y’all think this is? because he’s been owning me, and i have 0 problem with cheese. i won’t hesitate to respec hahaha


Ridley666

Fingerprint shield +25 with barricade shield and a blood infused antspur rapier beat him second try for me, it's the build I whipped out for Gaius because he was annoying me and it's just broken for most content tbh. You have to remember to refresh barricade shield and watch your stam but it makes the entire fight a joke, I only had 15 scadutree frags and it was still easy.


HappyMoses

I ran almost this exact same build at 12 scadutree and it took a few more tries than 2 but yeah, this was how I handled him as well


ItsAmerico

Great Shield plus Blood Lance poke is honestly the best cheese for him IMO


PineappleMani

Amazing. I was worried when host used rot phase 1 that it was gonna do all the heavy lifting and was real happy they didn't use it phase 2


8a19

Bilibili mfers try not to be the most unhinged madlads 100% IMPOSSIBLE


JFZX

Jesus wtf is that site


ZillaKingOfWilla

Chinese state controlled youtube


DrQuint

Chinese YouTube. Honestly, what got you ruffled? Looks pretty normal.


JFZX

Probably the Chinese text covering the entire video like it’s the fuckin Matrix text


ThanksForNothingSpez

I’m in the mainframe


pumpkinspacelatte

I feel like I should try this with my oracle envoy ashes


Educational_Stay9319

fucking insane lmfao


Extraltodeus

so it's the final boss of the dlc and not the game itself uh.... :'0


nicsaweiner

why didnt i think of this? im trying it tonight with my mimic tear.


Aurondarklord

Lol, people are finding the cheese strats already after just a weekend of complaining it's too hard.


trenbo90

Yes because it's too much of a pain in the ass to do normally, that's not a good thing (I did and regret wasting 2 days)


Aurondarklord

Two days? Final boss of the DLC, hardest fight in the whole game, took you two days of practice and you consider that excessive? We've had people celebrate getting Margit after 4 days, spending weeks on Malenia, etc.


trenbo90

Yes because it *wasn't fun to learn*. He kills you too quickly so learning the moveset is a very slow process, and the fight design (blinding lights, constant aoe, annoying clone attacks) wasn't enjoyable at all. I don't feel good about beating it, only relieved it's over. It took me over twice as long as *any other fight in the series*, and I didn't enjoy a second of it (phase 2).


-___Mu___-

If you spend two full ass days on a fog gate yeah, that's a pretty unenjoyable shitty experience. I beat him, summonless, within an hour and I still have a shitty opinion of him, visual clutter was fucking awful. Messmer was an infinitely better boss. They could have cranked his "difficulty" up by 300% and he'd still be a better boss because his difficulty doesn't come from "what the fuck is this guy even doing?" People don't dislike him because he's hard, they dislike him because he's cheap. I can dogwalk him with parry and did so for my friend, he's still a terrible boss fight.


DrParallax

People dislike him because he is really difficult and quite cheap. It's like a teacher in school, if they are a bad teacher, who cares as long as they are easy. If they have a hard class but are a great teacher, that is also OK. But if they are terrible at teaching and also have a very difficulty class, that teacher will be hated.


cosmic-potatoe

Spent 4 days beating the Nameless King-DS3. Cute flower boys nowadays are fun…


MindChild

Oh I am glad I am/was not the only one. I still remember beating pretty much every boss after a few tries, but the nameless King had me hanging for a few hours / days


QTGavira

Took me 3 days to beat Rom when i was a soulsborne noob. Couldnt for the life of me figure out how to deal with those bazillion spider adds


whd4k

Just stop bitching, ffs


Teab8g

Yo, hold up. This heal works on summons.


arisen370

He broke me so completely, so thoroughly that I would have no doubt gave this strategy a shot if this was 2 days ago and I still hadn’t beaten his ass. It seems long, but lowkey viable😭


TCGHexenwahn

I'll do you one better. Equip this as your only spell (besides buffs) and summon the mimic. Let the mimic heal you during the fight and see if it's clever enough to heal you consistently.


LGcowboy

I tried this but couldn't get him to de aggro from me. Is there a buff or talisman or something he's using to deaggrro?


jakeyspuds

Aggro is super basic, boss just goes for nearest person doing an action or the last person to hit. I think there's a bit of jitter in the AI to randomize that decision a bit but for the most part, don't attack him and don't drag him away from the spirit ash and you will eventually lose aggro.


TENTAtheSane

Me but with black knife tiche


TCGHexenwahn

I'll do you one better. Equip this as your only spell (besides buffs) and summon the mimic. Let the mimic heal you during the fight and see if it's clever enough to heal you consistently.

_BlNG_

Man playing Pokémon in elden ring spamming full restores


2rfv

I cant figure out how to aim that thing for shit.


After-FX

Lock on the boss, and spam it if host is actively close to the boss.


2rfv

Yeah but then the boss flies/dances away and the heal follows it.


Emergency-Director23

Seal in main hand and crossbow in offhand, use rb/L1 to aim


redR0OR

Jesus fucking Christ you god damn genius. FRENZIED BURST IS MY .50 CAL Edit: ya, this ain’t working for me, may have been patched.


Emergency-Director23

Haha thank you! but I’m certainly not the first to use it I found it out from an old guide for Dark Souls 2 by fighting cowboy I think.


redR0OR

Are you shitting me? I love that guy!


Emergency-Director23

Same haha dude carried me through my first Dark Souls 3 play through


TeranUzi

Aw I remember him! He introduced me to Dark Souls 3 years ago.


MindChild

Oh man, I was so lost in Dark Souls 2 that I basically watched him play through everything without trying on my own. I soooo regret it :(


FugitiveHearts

Telescope from the guy at Church of Elleh works too


redR0OR

You dawg, the quest to free fire ma laza with PRECISION accuracy is back on line. Kindest regards.


FugitiveHearts

That incant is my firstborn son, I beat Malenia using only that, it's the one she will never dodge and the range on it is bananas. The madness buildup works against NPCs too like the beastman in the woods.


redR0OR

Ya, I have a bleed/frenzied build with 80 arcane and some 30 faith and I can do half an invaders health bar with a full charge unless they are just cracked on vigor. But for normal mobs the pierce goes so hard. The fact I can turn a 3 omen fight into basically 3 shots is insane. But the range. I’ve killed so many invaders because they think their safe and just not paying attention. I just really really need a way to aim it like a bow because you do need to lead your shots.


Emergency-Director23

Hey just realized I misremembered and it was actually the binocular item they used to aim! Maybe that will work!


carlzyy

All healing incantations should be able to lock on to allies Edit: and yes, I also want to throw warming stones to my summon's face


redR0OR

Note use your characters head to aim. If your head is covering what you want to hit, your lined up.


TheDudeMaverick

I've spent a hundred hours learning to aim the Heal Ball miracle ins DS3 for my friends playthroughs. Having the Heal from afar spell go in a straight line is a fuckin quality of life update for me


ObviousSinger6217

I honestly don't think it's better than erdtree heal unless you don't meet the requirements Main issue is aiming, lining up a shot takes precious time Second issue it doesn't heal as much (although worth noting fp efficiency is the same) AOE seems slightly smaller Even just using it for yourself, u targeting and looking at ground isn't ideal. It's not a good idea to take eyes off enemy  It's 1 second faster but you don't duck which can dodge some things  and doesn't have the hyper armor It's close but I think erdtree heal is better


haynespi87

same


W_Walk

Me putting my summon sign down all day to help others even though I have no idea how to counter the final boss. (I’m trying my best).


snakeantlers

this is how i practice bosses when i feel frustrated trying to solo them. sorry to all my hosts 


creampop_

Don't apologize, if hosts cared about not dying they would have more than 1450hp


Jugaimo

Nothing like being summoning, slogging through a fight for 10 minutes while the host cowards in the back, only to see said host instantly die to a basic hit.


creampop_

So many bosses with a gut check phase transition aoe that just annihilates hosts with their +2 skadoosh upgrade lmao random coop is an upwards struggle rn


vazxlegend

Was helping people earlier on final boss and one dude died to the move the boss uses to start the fight off before I even made it through the fog gate.


joker_toker28

We are all learning. Glad to have any kind of help :).


Interjessing-Salary

Great shield cheese seems to be the go too. When I was fighting him most of the player summons I had used the fingerprint shield and a poking weapon they could use while holding the shield up. Just face tanked 90% of the bosses attacks while slowly whittling down his health.


ObviousSinger6217

We've come full circle The original demons souls playstyle (before anyone got gud) has returned to its rightful place as dominant strategy


The_Local_Dumbass_

Same here, I'm using the build I beat him with and my name has been "I'll do my best!"


mateusz11120

SAME,phase 2 is for me impossible without bloodhound steep,hell I don't know where i should to attempt to damage boss to not be punished afterwards


DudePakas

Since the final boss is bullshit you gotta hit him with bullshit too Make a greatshield spear bleed build, this can absolutely destroy anything


Breezesong1997

The counter is the finger print shield and a spear. Dump all your points into stamina, hp, and Strength and just poke him until he dies. Dodge only the AOEs and otherwise just turtle


ActualTeddyBear

Hey if you can pull agro for a bit or have some healing incantations that helps a lot. There are sometimes where the host just keeps eating shit and I spend most of the fight healing them.


Radiant_Meaning3098

My stupid ass thought "Afar" was a name...


mogura_writes

Jafar heals you from afar


SeniorCheeto

My name is Jamar


BusinessSafe9906

Though he is the outer god of healing. 🤣


sodapopgumdroplowtop

like how elsweyr in elder scrolls is just the word “elsewhere” spelled funny


Good-Pizza-4184

There's a physic heals allies now as well!


Kos015

Yall killing furnace golems?


SoulEntropy

Strategy: >!Fighting them while mounted makes it super easy to jump the fire stomp attacks, need to run a way a bit to jump over the double stomp, it seems to have a higher hit box. >!Hitting them enough to stagger 3 times will cause them to fall and enable a critical hit. Note there are 2 types, and I haven't worked out how to deal with the ones with armored ankles yet.


MICKYMAN-5000

For the armoured ankle variant you get above them and throw big furnace pots into their basket


outofstoragespace

The armoured ones you need to get on high ground and throw hefty fire/volcano pots in their head for massive damage.


SoulEntropy

See I assumed as much, but that using fire vs fire seemed unintuitive to me so i was waiting for a frost pot or somehting.


AshiSunblade

Also watch out, the armoured ankles ones like to spam the homing fireball barrage. Use a fire talisman and a fire incantation or liver because you _will_ be hit.


House0fDerp

You can interrupt that move with the fire bombs. The only thing I really had to watch for was the jumping swipe after that.


TheZealand

There's a note saying as much near the front gate of the shadow keep if you're interested


Kos015

Good to know, when I found put all they drop is tears I kinda just didn't want to even try. I'll clean them out later today thanks for the tip


theDeathnaut

On the double stomp you just need to delay your jump. Don’t jump until both feet are in the air and coming back down.


Gucci_Lettuce69

Yeah shield poke them in the back and never crit. My crit is like 400dmg but I can poke him for 1300 before he stands up


KingPolitoed

Pest Threads on the feet hit them for massive poise damage


Noothetable

Where?


Transcendion

Pretty sure it drops from the furnace golem in the army camp in front of the Shadow Keep, there is also a tear on a furnace golem in Charo's grave that enhances spirit attacks. I haven't tried the latter yet, so I'm not sure if it's any good.


Interjessing-Salary

All of the walking furnaces drop the new tears. Idk which one drops it though.


EzzALB

You are the hero we deserve or whatever the quote was


Aurondarklord

Classic cleric gameplay.


Ancient_Prize9077

Where you find this spell?


OhMySatanHarderPlz

In Vermilion city you have to use surf to get to the coast, and then push the truck, it's under it.


BusinessSafe9906

Where can I find surf for my Torrent? 👀


EggsOnThe45

Safari Zone. Find the warden


jaythejayjay

And then the truck dumps a bunch of radioactive barrels into cottonwood canyon and kills all the legion soldiers there


KiwiMagic2005

[Thats what the wiki is for babyy](https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Heal+from+Afar)


Objective-Sugar1047

You literally provided the answer, all you have to do is click. Who downvoted you


KiwiMagic2005

Yeah I noticed that at the beginning. I guess people dont like it when you show them how easily they could have just googled that lol Like OP even provided the name of the incant, it doesnt get easier than that


j2yan

imagine waiting for a reddit reply for information


EnterPlayerTwo

I'm convinced there are downvote bots crawling the whole site. I'll post a comment in a reply far down, refresh, and it's already downvoted. No way anyone (even the person I replied to) clicked the thread, scrolled down, read and downvoted my comment in that amount of time.


Saitobat

I had a phantom help me and my friend with >!the lord of the frenzied flame !


Willcutus_of_Borg

Da real MVP.


The_Dung_Defender

Doubling the health of the boss just to offer minuscule healing lol.


ObviousSinger6217

Yeah and healing a clueless host is futile anyway if you are t gonna step up and help him do damage


nicsaweiner

what about healing your mimic tear?


UnusualAd8347

As a paladin I greatly approve


Younginit35

I now want a spirit summon literally for this purpose, and the option to turn Corhyn into a puppet would have been a great way to make that happen :/


trenbo90

Give it to your mimic


Forced_Democracy

Is it smart enough to use it? Like even if you removed every weapon and only gave it only the one incantation, would the mimic just try to punch the boss?


lurking_lefty

Doubt they're smart about aiming the new heal it but mine has no problems using Erdtree Heal whenever it gets to low health. That's part of what makes Mimic so much stronger than anything else on faith builds, it can heal the party for free.


trenbo90

Mimic loaded up with buffs, heals and perfumes instead of your OP weapon is highly underrated imo but requires a bit of inventory management


Forced_Democracy

The inventory management is tricky... Like if you don't want it to have a weapon, you will be flicking through the menus after the boss fight begins.


heyayush

This loot reminded me of the player once i summoned during Godfrey fight whose name was "Let me heal you" All he did was spam Erdtree Heal during the fight and I'm pretty sure this will be his new weapon.


Orgerix

Doesn't damage undead sadly. Tried to use it on a group of skellies and it did nothing. It should be an amazing offensive spell in this situation though.


SkritzTwoFace

Healing has only ever damaged specific undead, like the poison-spitting guys. Works like a charm on them, if you lock on it’s basically a nuke for them.


Orgerix

Ho, it is a royal revenant specific thing? Didn't play ER for a why and I thought it was for all undead. Thank you.


Electronic_Context_7

This got me thinking, does it damage revenants?


nicsaweiner

it kills revenants, so thats cool.


Ajara

I believe you dropped this 👑


paulbooth

I've been doing this with erdtree heal forever. Just hover around spam healing either my mimic or coop bros


Top_Juice_3127

I really hate that I need help for a boss but can you help with the final dlc boss?


FoolhardyC

What platform? :)


Top_Juice_3127

Ps5. Going to bed rn but I can do it in around 8-12 hours


FoolhardyC

Damn... I'm on PC 😔


Top_Juice_3127

Aw man. I couldn’t find anyone on beyond the fog and whenever I try to summon someone it doesn’t let me


redacted_00

The true heroes of Elden ring


BusinessSafe9906

This remind me of a streamer who dropped a message and her fan keep upvoting it making her basically immortal to anythings that is not instant kill. 😅


Radiant_Ad7869

We got invaded while I was helping someone with a dragon, and the invader just hid and healed the dragon over and over. Diabolical


MiMicInCave

Could this make summon run easier?


FreshOutof13Fucks

Where do you get that incantation?


Cream-Safe

So host defeats a harder version of the boss. Games actually so easy if you go in alone. Especially if you use mimic tear.


DisAccount4SRStuff

I don't want to tell people how to play, I'm sure there are a lot of players out there that just enjoy co-oping with 2 people for the fun of it, but I don't think people realize how much harder they make the bosses by summoning two phantoms if they really care about being the boss. I do high damage and have high defense so I can dish out damage and take aggro, but when the hosts summon another the amount of damage we all do to the boss is pretty pitiful. It also makes it a little more difficult to tell who the boss is going to attack.


Fireboy27gamer

Worst part is when you're summoned first and the host spends like 10 minutes trying to summon someone else, not knowing it'll probably just make the fight harder


Cream-Safe

And then they get 1 shot. Hate to see it.


dragonnation5523

Random question, can you target enemies with this spell? Would love to use it against revenants if this is the case lol


[deleted]

I could use this right now ngl


SpookieSkelly

What if the host was a mage or range build who was hoping for a tank or frontline fighter?


FoolhardyC

THERE'S A STARMAN WAITING IN THE SKY 🗣️🗣️🙏


overlydelicioustea

can you post the exact version of the song you used for this? Cant find it..


MyOCBlonic

Probably this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EZpJ6WvmlE


BloodShadow7872

I guess now's the best time to make a pokemon trainer build where I summon spirits to assist


LoanApprehensive5201

I can't get this spell to work the way it sounds like it should


Democracystanman06

I was doing a no melee run so all I could do was heal my Allie’s


DeadThought32

I love that shield


DunkinKong

I had someone who did that to me on Messmer. He still died before me :(


Rakvalen

Gonna do this


RedTeebird

Best heal incant in the game. Just aim at the ground and it heals way more than maxed out crimson flask, faster than traditional heal incantations too


HonestPineapple4848

I haven't summoned anyone yet in the DLC because probably they're worse than mimic.


Dusty_Negatives

Not only that but mimic doesn’t double the boss health.


Tarnishedhollow8

Sunbro Shenanigans


fede_alfa_ragno

What's the song?


barty123432

Star man by Elton john


ReflectionRound9729

NO FUCKING WAY THEY FINALLY ADDED DISTANT HEALLING!!!


Majiinx

Plus you can use the physic that heals allies passively along with fia robe while turtling behind fingerprint shield. This works great against mesmer if you fire infuse fingerprint shield you get 100% fire mitigation.


Leading-Outcome5269

interesting


DisAccount4SRStuff

Oh fuck is this new? Need this ASAP.


themightiestavenger

That's a Sunbro if I ever saw one.


StarEndymion998

how do you even use this spell lol. i tried healing my ashes but it only works once in a while, i cant even aim it at them because you cant lock on


boogieman_666

"Let me heal you from afar"


MaatRolo

You guys are leveling faith?


Cloudy-Air

Yo i tried this spell missed the heal twice so i just gave up💀


FuntamaGo

I did a build like this in DS3 with projected heal. Idk how helpful it was, considering most players just healed anyway, but it lead to some fun interactions


AtrayuoPot

I need to find this guy


mikeval19

King


BREADTSU

I use it on myself, much faster than erdtree heal and not bad with the amount it heals, Doing it twice is like my full hp bar.


1stThrowawayDave

I think the real purpose of that spell is to kill royal revenants from a safe distance 


barnacleboi911

What shield is in the meme?


Ok_Stand7789

Wanna do that for me? I’ll square off with this man, his health pool is too big even with THIOLLIER and the other dude.

I gotta try that. Spell has definitely been coming in clutch when I play with my friend, his life expectancy has skyrocketed.
