Gideon will also use Comet Azur if you don't get it from the Primeval Sorcerer yourself in Sellen's quest line. What do you think of Gideon? (P.S. Do you like what happens to him in the convergence mod?)
Oh, he doesn't use frenzy? That's unfortunate. It would have been nice for him to have had no moral qualms about that too considering the fact that the flame of frenzy is the most monstrous entity in the lands between that we have yet encountered. But alas. I must respect him for this one point in not using it.
He also doesn't use any from Erdtree, dragon communion, dragon cult, fell god, fire priest, snow witch, bloodstone, beast, gelmir, crystal, or golden order if I'm not mistaken. But yeah other than those frenzy is the only one.
@@ghostderazgrizYou can take Golden Order fundamentalism and Gelmir sorceries off of that list. He uses two fundamentalist incantations-Triple Rings of Light and Law of Causality-and Rykard’s Rancor.
@@wigglerrave4020 Ah right, didn't think of causality, though never saw discus. Forgot about Rykard. I don't think he uses carian either, unless he uses phalanx, and he doesn't use selia.
When I fought him on my first play through I went after dragons and just used the same stuff they did was pretty fun stun locking him and giving him rot with the breath attack as well as the claw attack
Those sorceries seem lik just the kind he wouldn't learn too. Pretty good way to kick his shit in with something he doesn't know how to use, if that's true
I hate that he was right, in a way, we never become a true lord, only a puppet of the forces around In any of the age of fracture offshoots, we put Marika back together, implying that we basically just restored the status quo that was before the shattering where she was in charge, In age of the stars, we hand control over to Ranni who decides to not interact with the lands between and we go away And in age of frenzied flame, what good is being a lord of all that remains is ashes?
For someone with the name All-Knowing he definitely didn't see us ramming a giant weapon up his ass and tossing him aside like a wet noodle. Its ironic that the one time he actually does something himself he's a complete pushover. A well deserved fate for such a person.
He is hardly a push over. Imagine fighting him even with his base abilities as soon as you get to the lands between. He would destroy many. It is a testament to how you have prepared that he is easy by the time you face him. The fact he can use so many spells of different schools of thought shows he is not a weakling. He always was your rival. You just leave him in the dust in the foot race to the throne. Which may be part of why he gets convinced to block your way. He has become irrelevant. Knowing he can't win no matter what he does he decided to meet his end by the person he has been trying to get ahead of this entire time.
@@jacobfreeman5444 thats not how game scaling works lol. Just be real, a boss the size of the tarnished that really just spams op spells that you have to dodge through until you 3 tap him isnt a clever representation of Gideon or his story.
I like to imagine that while waiting for us Gideon met Godfrey and started monologuing but immediately stopped when he realized he wasn't us and let him through because he got scared. Something like: "ah, I knew you'd co... Oh hello sir, no believe me I wasn't talking to you I thought you were someone else, please allow me to clear out of the way"
@@ghostderazgrizI doubt it, Godfrey was talking as if he had only been with morgotts corpse for a few seconds, and the idea that Gideon, the player, and Godfrey all getting to the throne room at the same time is super unlikely
@@Dune44 yeah you could use any meme of this kind honestly: kissing him to death, hugging him to death, downloading 5 petabytes of brainrot memes into his brain etc.
What i hate the most about him is him being immune to death blight. I get that he's a story boss and whatnot, but he's a fucking tarnish, breath in my dark skum and get impaled in the ass by my big back borollic tree of death.
Honestly one of the most startling moments of the game for me. I kinda didn't take Ensha seriously at first because he came across as an edgy tryhard thug. Last thing I expected was to teleport to the Hold, find it dark and deserted, and then get JUMPED by my own boss's hired muscle in the _safe zone_ of all places.
I love this. The idea that a large number of players didn't catch onto the importance Gideon places in seeking Miquella and his Haligtree, didn't realize Gideon was lying about Ensha going after you of their own volition, and didn't realize he was going to betray you until the final act. He's not even that clever, but his half-baked attempts and faux politeness are enough to convince so many Tarnished that Gideon is just "that guy who gives me more stuff after I take the bosses' stuff."
@@luna7157 when you confront him about ensha he doesn’t mention ensha acts ahead before they could actually get time to plan and get everything before fighting us i disliked him from that moment
I like Gideon. One of my favourites. On my fist playthrough I played as a faith/intellegents mage so i could use every spell i picked up. And I practically combed the whole game, exploring every landmark and dungeon as well as killing every boss and miniboss to try and find every quest character and lore significant item in the game, while brutally murdering anything on my way with my magnificent spells. So a NPC that sought knowlege and traded it for new spells seemed pretty cool to me; only to end up faceing him in the end, both of us armed with powerful, high stat spells. So yeah, Gideon just ended up as a mirror to my first character and thats all very cool.
I did a fai/int build for my first character too, but the int was only so I could use those Golden Order fundamentalist incantations. But I had just about every incantation there was, and I made damn sure to use as many different kinds as I could when I faced him. In the end, it was a blast of madness that got him, so he did the dying from madness death pose.
@@WretchedRedoranthat’s so poetic-his mind is his greatest asset, yet it betrayed him in the end. I looked it up and he’s actually quite vulnerable to Madness, while most enemies and bosses are immune. It’s fitting that it’s one of the few magics he never uses against you.
Fun fact: if you learn Comet Azur, he will NOT use it during the fight, but he will if you haven't got it during Sellens questline. I like to imagine that Azur only bestowed the knowledge to one worthy person, and it's either you or Gideon armed with the spoils of all of your accomplishments.
I get comet azur before meeting selen and gideon still have comet azur. I guess you need to talk to selen first to make it canon if you stole comet azur first.
I don’t think we get to judge Gideon for breaking into the bosses homes, stealing their things and looting their corpses. We basically do just that but we add murder charges on top of everything else.
@@darthmaul8278Sometimes it's wise to allow another to do the dirty work. His real failing isn't cowardice. It's his lack of care and empathy for the lives of those around him. He shows himself to be an intentionally genocidal monster against those he sees as weak. A truly pathetic man.

Same, I let him finish his dialogue and hit him with three spinning slashes from Nagakiba + Bloodflame Blade & Flame Grant Me Strength… I didn’t see a single one of his moves beside healing from a flask. Lol
I was playing Elden ring when it came out but I was off and on cause I was busy at the time and just catching up when I could and I remember a TH-cam short like a month after it released and it was captioned something like “it’s your 30 play through of Elden ring” and it’s with a modded move set he sprints at him and decks him in the face with a kick beats the F**k outta him then runs to the next boss I’ve never been in such stitches laughing in my life
Ironically, beating Malenia and Mohg before Maliketh makes Gideon so much easier, since he loses most of his spammy spells in place of the slower Aeonia and Bloodboon. Not that it matters if you oneshot him, but it's very convenient if you're doing a challenge run. Because that guy kills many of those
@@oficialbrindes4369 I think it originated from a TH-cam channel called BjorntheBear. He makes Elden Ring boss battle videos and Gideon says it as he's getting wrecked by other bosses or opponents.
There’s little doubt in my mind that Sir Gideon Ofnir, The All-Knowing goes to where you killed the bosses to study them for a bit but he definitely doesn’t do it to learn their sorceries/incantations You tell him the sorceries/incantations yourself and he gladly listens.
When do you tell him the spells? Every playthrough I've ever done I've only told him the locations of the bosses. You can even tell him where some of them are before defeating them so you'd have no way of teaching him their spells at that point while he still rewards you with his own
@@connorsucks3847 when you killed them. If you kill Rykard, Malenia, or Mohg and talk to Sir Gideon Ofnir, The All-Knowing, you tell him about them and the fight and he learns the spells/incantations based on your words.
@@LegendaryBrah just checked the wiki and while he does have additional rewards if you speak to him after defeating them it's apparently not required for him to learn or use their spells. The only requirement for that is that they are dead before the fight
gideon is such a cool character and clearly pretty important, it would have been cool if he was a tougher boss or if he showed more of a role throughout, i like him either way tho
I defeated basically every boss in the game before facing him this last play through, aside from the last few bosses of course. The dood had a full array of attacks I’d never seen from my first play through. I was like, “uhhh, new moves huh Gideon?” Makes sense now lol.
Im 100% sure that Gideon only learns the attacks from bosses if you speak to him after you encounter them. So basically if you never speak to him he cant learn any attacks and will be heavily nerfed during his encounter
It would makes it harder actually as the spell he learn when you tell him about Mohg and Malenia are slow spells that replace spell that he can spam and makes him hard in challenge run
Romans 8:18 “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing the glory that is to be to revealed to us.” God bless all of you have an amazing day. Remember God loves you, and will always forgive you.
@thulsa_doom true but I remember people crying their eyes out when old rivers and mimic tear got nerfed. Particularly mimic tear for PvE and Rivers of Blood for PvP. I specifically remember a lot of people being like "great now mimic tear is gutted." Even now most of the people I see using summons are still using mimic tear for the DLC so I guess it ain't gutted, lol. Some people legitimately got mad cause mimic tear won't completely by itself win the game for you anymore. You now have to actually press SOME inputs.
Doesn’t excuse that, many patches later, he became one of the most unnecessarily-spammy fuckin’ fights when he was a cakewalk in earlier patches of the game. He spams spells every single second & a half, which is ridiculous! This forces me to get more & more angry & aggressive, especially in terms of using Tiche to help do the dirty work.
Put some respect on Gideon’s name. He was one of the first Tarnished and made the Roundtable to help others but was continually disappointed by them. Vargram does his own thing, Vyke went crazy, Bernahl became a Recusant, and everyone else seems incompetent.
I started panicking when he used literally every boss’s spells; as I had defeated all the bosses in the game besides him, Godfrey and Radagon! Had me pressed until I realized he was a glass-cannon! 😂
I only wish that he had thieved some of the power and poise of the other bosses, too. For such an interesting character he goes down just so quickly and has no impact on the ending. Gideon is one of those people who should have an ending associated with him. Since he is basically the only character in the game except maybe Morgott to end up 100% loyal to Queen Marika, he represents a unique belief system for the player and a unique outcome for the Lands Between.
The twist that he's a bad guy would've been well worth it if the game had half decent story telling. I think I talked to him once or twice in my first playthrough and didn't even realize it was Gideon from roundtable until I replayed 😅
I loved how when we first travel to Roundtable hold he starts showing off calling the tarnished mere guest and will only accept him as equal after he shows him a great tune. My first question would be something like: first show me how many great tunes you have grandpa? What, none? Then FO plox, Ty 😂
Him, bernald and vyke probably have greats runes, becauses they manage to go to montaintop of giants (after capital where you need 2 greats runes) also fingers readers say when you gain a greats runes that the fingers have the same interest in us as in Gideon. There is probably a lot of demi god forgetten by history (the golden line from whom godrick descends probably, like godefroy)
He knows an impressive amount of things, and is a legitimately skilled sorcerer. However a coward is still a coward. He's no stronger than a weak tarnished, and no match for you.
If only he had just a little more healing/defense, or Rennala's forcefield, or any of the teleporting spells. Just something to make him take a little bit more dage so we could actually enjoy the fight and not instakill him
He's a pretty interesting character, and it's really cool he knows a lot of magic and can throw a lot of different attacks at you. It's just a shame he is very weak and vulnerable to damage, making his boss fight way too easy. If his fight was harder he'd be way more respected because he is a cool ass NPC
Second mouse gets the cheese, he may be underhanded, but he isn't unwise for the most part. killing him means he dies, unlike us, he would rather stay safe in such a tumultuous time and bide his time instead of diving headfirst into grave peril. A thief yes, a smart man, also yes, two things can be true at once
If he truly was all knowing he would have known that he could steal 30% of our runes every time we die when he follows us. If he had done that, then perhaps he wouldn't have been so weak
If you try to fight him with spells he is hard. He does a lot of damage and can cast faster than you. If you don't defeat him the first time i remember him not repeating his speech and immediately casting spells from the second time.
He will only have the bosses spells if you tell him about them and get his rewards in the Roundtable Hold. You can still get the rememberance's but just dont tell Gideon.
Dude he needed us to even get a great rune they set this standard of having a great rune but then i think wait u dont have one none if these mfers do whats going on here 🤔 and then he sees us kill all these guys and he is like yup i can beat em 😂 whats wrong whit this man are we sure he isnt driven mad already

@@Livan-yuruikami He is easy, when you have damage options. I am talking as a guy who was trying to beat him with
low damage a few times
>calls himself all-knowing
>attempts to drink empty flask mid fight
He was my gossip buddy 😂😂 and personally his fight was fun like bruh you are using a fraction of the power of the people i had to fight at 100% power
I haven't seen any of his spells I've always just ended his lease in life before he finishes talking
He doesn't last very long against rivers of blood
He needs "HELP!"
😂😂
Can someone explain me why Gideon asking for help is a meme in souls community?
@@oficialbrindes4369 I think it originated from a TH-cam channel called BjorntheBear. He makes Elden Ring boss battle videos and Gideon says it as he's getting wrecked by other bosses or opponents.
Hey don’t talk shit on us hyenas.
Comparing him to hyenas is an insult to hyenas.
“I have the highest IQ of all Reddit”
- Gideon Ofnir
So... 10.
There’s little doubt in my mind that Sir Gideon Ofnir, The All-Knowing goes to where you killed the bosses to study them for a bit but he definitely doesn’t do it to learn their sorceries/incantations
You tell him the sorceries/incantations yourself and he gladly listens.
When do you tell him the spells? Every playthrough I've ever done I've only told him the locations of the bosses. You can even tell him where some of them are before defeating them so you'd have no way of teaching him their spells at that point while he still rewards you with his own
@@connorsucks3847 when you killed them.
If you kill Rykard, Malenia, or Mohg and talk to Sir Gideon Ofnir, The All-Knowing, you tell him about them and the fight and he learns the spells/incantations based on your words.
@@LegendaryBrah I've never once told him about the fight with Mohg after it happens but he still has access to Mohgs spell when I fight him
@@LegendaryBrah just checked the wiki and while he does have additional rewards if you speak to him after defeating them it's apparently not required for him to learn or use their spells. The only requirement for that is that they are dead before the fight
Sir Gideon, the Rat
Doesn’t know what’s going on in the shadow realm though, does he? See all this new stuff I’ve got, Gideon, and you can’t use it
Gideon the copycat-ninja of the stealingan
all that just to get two shot by inescapable frenzy
Gideon is one of my favorite characters actually, i love his fight
And due to his thieving we do the honorable thing and steal the still beating heart from his body
gideon is such a cool character and clearly pretty important, it would have been cool if he was a tougher boss or if he showed more of a role throughout, i like him either way tho
He can actually be kinda tough if you fight him on his own terms... But he doesn't deserve a fair fight.
@@lonelyshpee7873 fair
@@lonelyshpee7873 a fair fight? I told him to get rekt and then tea bagged him.
Hes basically a vulture. Scavengin the corpses left behind
Damn that’s rly cool, I’m gonna try fighting him at an appropriate level to get the full boss experience
I defeated basically every boss in the game before facing him this last play through, aside from the last few bosses of course. The dood had a full array of attacks I’d never seen from my first play through. I was like, “uhhh, new moves huh Gideon?” Makes sense now lol.
Still a great fight in my opinion
Im 100% sure that Gideon only learns the attacks from bosses if you speak to him after you encounter them. So basically if you never speak to him he cant learn any attacks and will be heavily nerfed during his encounter
It would makes it harder actually as the spell he learn when you tell him about Mohg and Malenia are slow spells that replace spell that he can spam and makes him hard in challenge run
Romans 8:18 “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing the glory that is to be to revealed to us.”
God bless all of you have an amazing day. Remember God loves you, and will always forgive you.
Says the guy using a +10 mimic, rivers of blood and giant's flame take thee
Nothing wrong with those. They're are part of the game and work as intended.
@thulsa_doom true but I remember people crying their eyes out when old rivers and mimic tear got nerfed. Particularly mimic tear for PvE and Rivers of Blood for PvP.
I specifically remember a lot of people being like "great now mimic tear is gutted."
Even now most of the people I see using summons are still using mimic tear for the DLC so I guess it ain't gutted, lol.
Some people legitimately got mad cause mimic tear won't completely by itself win the game for you anymore. You now have to actually press SOME inputs.
Doesn’t excuse that, many patches later, he became one of the most unnecessarily-spammy fuckin’ fights when he was a cakewalk in earlier patches of the game. He spams spells every single second & a half, which is ridiculous! This forces me to get more & more angry & aggressive, especially in terms of using Tiche to help do the dirty work.
His boosfight is a genius concept, but I leveled up so much to defeat Malenia that I had to spare him to hear the last of his speech
L gideon
Thank you! For whatever reason i could not figure out what the eye surcoats were related to but now i do. Thanks
I DON'T HAVE A GAMING PC so can someone explain what happens in the convergence mod instead of being a Chad and saying "jUsT dOwNlOaD iT AnD sEe"
man is a budget mimic tear...
i never knew
yet again, all of this is completely lost even after 300 hours of playtime. This is such bad game design
that’s so cool i never even thought about us affecting his spells
Put some respect on Gideon’s name. He was one of the first Tarnished and made the Roundtable to help others but was continually disappointed by them. Vargram does his own thing, Vyke went crazy, Bernahl became a Recusant, and everyone else seems incompetent.
I really didn’t know how he fights
I always just run up while he talks and fuck him up
I started panicking when he used literally every boss’s spells; as I had defeated all the bosses in the game besides him, Godfrey and Radagon!
Had me pressed until I realized he was a glass-cannon! 😂
"I knew you-"
LOOK INTO MY EYES!!
I only wish that he had thieved some of the power and poise of the other bosses, too. For such an interesting character he goes down just so quickly and has no impact on the ending. Gideon is one of those people who should have an ending associated with him. Since he is basically the only character in the game except maybe Morgott to end up 100% loyal to Queen Marika, he represents a unique belief system for the player and a unique outcome for the Lands Between.
I didn’t know that about the boss powers. Pretty cool
I had no idea. Because when I got to him I was lvl 190 so me and my Mimic Tear buddy destroyed him before he finished his speech.
Dang, it's almost like the renowned wizard is learning spells
Still he says - I need help 💀
I wouldn't call him thieving... Because his "quest" is asking us to share knowledge of what we know bout them after he tell about them a little 😅
All we tell him is where they were and what they seemed to be doing.
Facts knowledge on the lore or universe!!
The twist that he's a bad guy would've been well worth it if the game had half decent story telling. I think I talked to him once or twice in my first playthrough and didn't even realize it was Gideon from roundtable until I replayed 😅
I loved how when we first travel to Roundtable hold he starts showing off calling the tarnished mere guest and will only accept him as equal after he shows him a great tune. My first question would be something like: first show me how many great tunes you have grandpa? What, none? Then FO plox, Ty 😂
Him, bernald and vyke probably have greats runes, becauses they manage to go to montaintop of giants (after capital where you need 2 greats runes) also fingers readers say when you gain a greats runes that the fingers have the same interest in us as in Gideon. There is probably a lot of demi god forgetten by history (the golden line from whom godrick descends probably, like godefroy)
Ok, but are you one to talk tarnished? How many weapons and spells have we stolen? How many victories are won by summons?
He knows an impressive amount of things, and is a legitimately skilled sorcerer. However a coward is still a coward. He's no stronger than a weak tarnished, and no match for you.
If you do all the quests for Gideon his final state is hard as fuck and it’s awesome. If you ignore him, he’s just a pushover boss and it’s hilarious.
If only he had just a little more healing/defense, or Rennala's forcefield, or any of the teleporting spells. Just something to make him take a little bit more dage so we could actually enjoy the fight and not instakill him
He's a pretty interesting character, and it's really cool he knows a lot of magic and can throw a lot of different attacks at you. It's just a shame he is very weak and vulnerable to damage, making his boss fight way too easy. If his fight was harder he'd be way more respected because he is a cool ass NPC
Second mouse gets the cheese, he may be underhanded, but he isn't unwise for the most part. killing him means he dies, unlike us, he would rather stay safe in such a tumultuous time and bide his time instead of diving headfirst into grave peril. A thief yes, a smart man, also yes, two things can be true at once
There was a owl/vulture comparison dichotomy, and you decided to go for hyena...
If he truly was all knowing he would have known that he could steal 30% of our runes every time we die when he follows us. If he had done that, then perhaps he wouldn't have been so weak
If you try to fight him with spells he is hard. He does a lot of damage and can cast faster than you. If you don't defeat him the first time i remember him not repeating his speech and immediately casting spells from the second time.
He will only have the bosses spells if you tell him about them and get his rewards in the Roundtable Hold. You can still get the rememberance's but just dont tell Gideon.
Dude he needed us to even get a great rune they set this standard of having a great rune but then i think wait u dont have one none if these mfers do whats going on here 🤔 and then he sees us kill all these guys and he is like yup i can beat em 😂 whats wrong whit this man are we sure he isnt driven mad already
I do the exact same thing as Gideon really he's working smarter not harder by getting other people to do it. Honor is long dead in the lands between.
Well to give some credit he uses spells we can only learn throu rememberences and we need a finger reader. And I killed 10 times more albenorics
hes all knowing not all fighting, he looted their homes and corpses to gain more knowledge on spells and lore
He should be more thank for more enjoyable boss fight
