Funny that one of my sloppiest kills is the one that succeeds. I added on some extra footage with a few strats that didn't make it in the main video

I had such a clean phase 1 too, I shouldn't have greeded for a cool ending with Messmer's 6 hit snake combo and just killed him then and there

2 minute kill at RL1 with split holy/phys damage (80% holy resistance)... FromSoft, why have you done this?

Inspired by the peak kills of u/Zealousarchmage

a backwards jump towards the boss? ruined my aura farming (btw i have no death on for practicing new strats jic you were wondering why i didn't die there)

cool gank, the dynamic between yegor and leena is really good and i've never seen a frame trap happen so it's a thumbs up from me

leena keeps jumping around making her hard to hit yet she's a lot squishier than yegor

leena throws some of those arrows which you can throw back to her or yegor for big damage, although leena seems to input read it around 60% so it's only useful for getting an instant stagger and critical against yegor which is honestly a godsend on +0 because it speeds up the fight so much

leena's powered up phase is really tough though, I had a strategy down for it so that it was easy, but it felt kind of wrong...

basically you just miss some punishes on purpose so then you can chase her down when she jumps away, dodge the fire projectiles she shoots as she jumps and then you dodge to her back and she will whiff whatever follow up she does, take a few hits but don't overextend because you'll repeat it because she always jumps away when you're close

yegor is mostly static but he has some pretty big area denial

yegor's powered up phase is honestly disappointing, this was my first time seeing it so excuse the horrible gameplay but it doesn't seem like he has many moves and they don't really help close his weakness of dodging to his back, seems like the strategy is the same as his normal fight where you just dodge to his back and attack every time

overall, i wish yegor was a little more threatening in his powered up phase, but i think the reward of him being easier than leena makes sense considering she's much harder to take out first

if there's a boss i'm most likely to replay to do a hitless kill on so far, it's probably this one

im not sure if im going to be able to draw big bang

No hit/buffs/aux again like the last, hopefully this isn't as painful on the eyes

kill was done using the boss arena mod (hence the weird item drops and gideon in the roundtable) because maliketh is already dead on my save

the miserable visual effects are done through reshade (post-processing injector)

this boss is really fun, i think i like it more than hermann

looking at it in hindsight i can't believe i didn't recognize that the ice swords have patterns on how they blow up, i genuinely thought it was luck until i got hit and i noticed it went inwards that time

i don't think i'm even going to try for the no hit though
