    The Crucible Knight isn't pondering his orb, or sorrowfully reposing on his divan. He's pumping iron. He's getting ready. Your defeat becomes a protein shake for the next training cycle. I admire that.

    As tough as a lot of the gaols were, I really like that there's zero penalty to attempting them. Since you can retrieve your runes without re-entering the gaol, you can try those bosses whenever you want without having to risk losing your runes if you have to give up on the boss and go elsewhere.

      I need to go back through Stormveil, because I seem to have overlooked an evergaol that was actually in the castle. I'm thinking back to my run through the castle and I guess I ran into one that's on a raised bit above one of the courtyards that you can get to via the rooftops. It's that area where there are like 2 knights close together. I tried that way just the once before opting to just make it through the castle.
      When I got through the courtyards and got to Godrick I wasn't worrying about much else at that point. I'll have to go through an adjustment period when I get back into Elden Ring. I've been away from the game for over 2 months thanks to some real life crap and also choosing to concentrate on Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3 instead.

    Me entering the "first" evergaol before reaching Margit, thinking it's a part of the area, only to have my ass handed to me. Then I figure it's some kind of high level content and leave it alone.
    20 hours later, after clearing the castle, upgrading, leveling up a bunch and encountering several more evergaols, which I dared not touch since I thought the "first" is supposed to be the easiest, I go do Blaidd's quest (another evergaol) and realise the boss is a chump. Then I clear out 3 more evergaols and remember the "first" one.
    Payback time! Since I thought it was "first" and easiest one I stroll on in and promptly got my ass handed to me several more times before I decided to leave it alone until endgame.

By that time I'd already bruteforced and cheesed my way through several roaming crucible knights and have banged my head against (and defeated) the boss fight with the 2 of them in the hero tomb. So when I came back for the evergaol knight I was well versed in the ways of crucible knight asskickery and promptly wiped the evergaol's floor with him.

    0:02 Welcome to another Evergaol with our favorite guardian buttplugs. Those things are as threatening as ever.
    0:06 And here is your nightmare for tonight. This is Crucible Knight. One of the Knights who was loyal to Godfrey before he was banished from Lands Between. These lads fight for so called Crucible of Life, a thing that has been shunned by Golden Order and seen as something awful which could explain this guy being in Evergaol. There are a few theories going around about what exactly was or is Crucible of Life, but for now I'll just say that Gold in this world while it is something seen as holy and beautiful it is hiding something sinister underneath.
    0:10 The music in the background is OST of Sir Alonne from Dark Souls 2 DLC Crown of Iron King. Amazing soundtrack that I recommend all of you to listen to.
    0:18 This is Claw Talisman which you can find at Stormveil castle. It increases damage of your jump attacks. Pretty useful.
    0:22 Buuuut this guy is EXTREMELY strong, has A LOT of Poise and is most likely a good old troll from Fromsoft by putting this guy also very close to Stormveil which is to most people the very first Legacy Dungeon.
    0:24 And he does A LOT of damage too.
    0:31 Don't bother running away, he will catch up to you. Also this game has a system that feels REALLY artificial. You see, certain enemies will make a certain attack whenever yo try to heal. It ISN'T actually an input read, but this attack triggers from the very first frame of your character taking out the flask which makes it look like input read. You can watch a video of Zullie the Witch, a great youtuber that covered this subject in more detail. My advice. Trigger easy to dodge attack and then heal.
    0:34 Those Knights are complete bullies. They are basically black knights (DS1 tough enemy) of this game, but even more broken.
    0:40 Also he has ranged attack (sort of, he just stomps in front of him and creates stones from the ground) because fuck you.
    0:42 One saving grace is that he walks slowly
    0:45 But his charge can take care of that. ALWAYS look at this guy. Never look away.
    0:48 And he has magic because fuck you. This attack is a Crucible Spell, this allows him to create wings that let him fly for a moment and dunk on you. They are called Aspects of the Crucible which also hints at something about certain people which we will get to later.
    0:50 And also a tail attack because again... fuck you.
    0:53 And it has REALLY long range and it goes twice sometimes when you are too far away I believe, better learn those dodges.
    1:01 Sponsored by G Fuel I guess.
    1:07 Oh my God. Do NOT go into that Hero Grave. This is Auriza's hero grave which has easily THE MOST infuriating carriages of DOOM, horrifying lay out and most of all it has a REALLY hard boss. My advice. When you are seeing two carriages on fucking stairs going by each other use Magit's shackle (or Mogh's which you can find in Leyndell's sewers). If they didn't patch it yet this thing will trigger a mechanism near those stairs that will destroy those shitty things and give you Tree Sentinel Armor. Again, it is a bug, not something planned, no lore reason behind it. It's just that this effect has very long range and it affects that mechanism. Pray it's not patched.
    1:09 But the worst part is that this grave has TWO CRUCIBLE KNIGHTS by the end. One with a spear, another with a sword. You get sword, shield and armor for it, but it's REALLY infuriating either way. Good luck.

    This animator has a bunch of screws and wires loose in his head. This is so brilliant, laughed so hard xD

    The dash during the heal was insane 😂

    It was so satifying getting to the point of parrying every crucible knight attack. Great job on displaying basically everyones frist experience lol

    This perfectly captures my experience with these guys! Stupid strong and no matter how strong you get they can take you out if you're slippin

    After all this is done I'd love to see a randomiser run episode where they're screaming at the absurd encounters that can happen

    The end when he walked into that awful heros grave and saw 2 of them was just a perfect depiction of how it felt. That was one of the hardest boss fights in the game for me, I did it pretty underleveled and it took me about 3 stupid days lol

      My feelings about this boss fight when I saw there's two of that badass boys:
      "NOPE, NOPE, NOOOOOPE!!" **Dies impaled**

      I found best way to learn it was put my sign down to be summoned in over and over. Biggest problem was keeping whoever summoned you alive for long enough to actually learn anything lol

    This was awesome, had a really good laugh throughout. But if this was the Crucible Knight, then I can't wait to see what you'll do with the Bell Bearing Hunter :D

    That one Crucible Knight was the first time I died double digits to one enemy, first time I thought about quitting the game, and first time I (very) audibly screamed when I finally beat them😂

    I just fucking love the memes around those crucible knights, whats funny is my first run of the game started with a friend dropping me a full set of their armor
