I fought it melee. 1) It's a Golem so you'd want to go in with a Colossal Weapon/Colossal Sword as those have huge strike damage. 2) You'll only do real damage on the glowing yellow parts, in this case the wrists. Anywhere else is a waste of time 3) Be patient, wait for it to strike, then move in while dodging to position yourself where its hands end near the ground. Get two hits in on the glowing yellow parts and back off immediately. 4) Repeat 5) Slash weapons, like Katanas, do less damage to armoured enemies.
Easiest strat I found was to just go for the legs with Flame of the Redmanes. If you stagger it once, the fight is over. You riposte and then start using the Flames again while it's getting up. It will fall back down again before it has a chance to attack and the cycle repeats. It took 3 Flames of the Redmanes for the first stagger iirc, so you just need to survive for like 6 seconds and then it's gg.
There's Miyazaki's idea of "the easy mode" half the VG press pester him about : *put a pillar next to the OP enemy for the player to catch a break. But put the OP enemy on a tiny arena next to a death ledge to make it a simple yet fair fight* ^^ I love this game, first entry to the Souls and FromSoft games and I'm flabbergasted every 30 seconds with its sheer magnificence and game design grandeur 🧡
He was supposed to be a guard for the fort above, like how castle Morne has its archer golem, he probably was a creation of the nearby magic town of Sellia to help with the war by guarding fort Faroth, for how it ended up down on the ledge behind the forth, you can assume that the massive dragon Greyoll, before she was affected by the rot, probably tried to nest in front of the fort, the golem probably didn’t like that and tried to get rid of them, only to get slapped off the cliff by the obviously much larger dragon, which can be evidenced by why you find him flat on his back and rather unresponsive to you until you get extremely close or attack first, also, the archway you can use to get down when coming down has damage that looks like something had smashed through it, and not that it was naturally crumbling. It’s a shame you wouldn’t have been able to fight him above, like some sort of fort guardian field boss, but obviously they wanted to go with something more exciting, like a massive crippled dragon.
It's a golem. Attack where he's glowing (in this instance, his wrists). Use strike damage, not slashing damage. He's made of stone. Not everything can be RoB spammed.
I wish you could get his magic halberd as a reward for killing him. He drops one sometimes but it’s a regular golem halberd. His version is epic, imagine if it came with the laser attack as the ash of war. For how tough he is that would be a fitting prize IMO.
Much as I hate the concept it sounds accurate for the most part, like where the Golems would be, like in leyndell capital they use holy buffed weapons, and in the fiery areas they have fire based stuff and look half melted a smidge.
@@arceusdominus2612 No.... the golems are supposed to be from Farum Azula or something I think. So it wouldn't make much sense except for the magic one, as Selia did a lot of experiments and all that.
According to the lore it was a golem made by that fought in the battle of aonia swamp. It was knocked away during the rot explosion, and landed here. Because it was armored and enchanted by Selian magic it was way stronger than it’s normal counterparts.
Something to note as well. If you find yourself fighting more than one golem, use the Crystal Darts on one of them. They have the same effect on golems as they do on the stone imps in the catacombs. Meaning you will drive it berserk and it will aggro and attack anything on site…including the other golems
@@LordOfChaos.x true but magic/faith/bleed/katana/builds that don’t utilize Greatsword/Ultra weapons might struggle, at least in the beginning so this is a good tactic early level until you can go all unga bunga on their hinnies 👍🏿
Oh and his purpose there is to “guard” one of the treasures that’s hinted to you by the portraits you find in the game. Each portrait hints a location, go to that location and the ghost of the artist(?) appears and leaves behind a item for you. The item there is actually a ash of war… I think it’s some arrow rain ash of war for your bow, I have it but I can’t remember the name of it off the top of my head XD
@@phazedkilledyou Im not really sure its that good of an ash of war to base a build around personally. I dont ever use bows for actual damage tho so i wouldnt know.
You're supposed to attack the titans where they have fire/lava bursting out, that's their weak spot. For most it's the legs, but this one's weak spot are his hands which is a bit tricky. I took him out with a greatbow and lots of dodging,
The real boss is the sorrow you experience when you realize it's not guarding anything interesting, and that there's no way down to Radahn's arena from there
Yep. I found this guy myself, ground my way up on my first playthrough, powered through beating the dude, and I was so disappointed. Absolutely no payout.
Totally agree: I beat it (come on... it's not thaaaat difficult with all columns to hide out), and was quite disapointed about the unexisting loots & xp :D
I don't know if anyone has said that, but I found that you can actually cheese it by standing on the edge of this platform(which is the farthest to where the golem is), and just shoot it with arrows. It will come to you but stops midway and starts to go back, and during the process it will not do any attack moves. This may because how it movesets are coded, and the agro range is low for this one.
II will continue to try and melee him with Mogh’s trident, the Bloodhound’s Fang and/or the Great Stars…. If I cannot take him down with melee then magic but I refuse to snipe this guy since he is SO POWERFUL and the space is so confined I consider it a personal challenge to take him down without ranged weapons from the branches above - though I respect anyone that can defeat this one in any method ! So good luck to you all and please post more here about your experiences so we can all learn more.
Fun fact for those struggling, the axe talisman and the bubble tear that increases charged heavies can stagger this giant with ease of charge attacking his ankles
You can just do like 2-4 fully charged power attacks with a colossal weapon, then they fall over facing whatever side you are closest to when you hit them last. Then you just crit their chest and it does like minimum half hp, one shots other golems. It helps if they have fire ankles but it's not a big deal if they don't.
If you have the watchdog staff use that. Or the giant sword. Even bloodhound Fang and keep hitting the art. You need to break his stance. Rob is a terrible weapon for this fight.
"Immune to bleed, poison, and scarlet rot" Uses RoB It's usually a good idea to have a few high leveled weapons in different categories. And the visual appearance of flesh/armor can hint to what will and won't work.
@@ProjectOrionGaming 'just for the laughs' the countless panic rolls and lack of understanding of golem attack patterns says otherwise. Bonus points for chugging heals and accidentally qeueing corpse piler only to hit nothing.
I once tried to rush to deeproot depth to enter leyndell as an illegal immigrant. so i had to fight the two golemns before the coffin. but i played a bleed build and it seemed almost impossible so i got this hammer you find close to where you pick up the mimic tear got it to +5 or something and beat the two golems fight was still insanely hard for me, but it was possible just by carrying another weapon
A rune arc and the ash of war rain of arrows is what you get from here. Rune arc is sitting under the giant and roa is dropped after you talk to the spirit sitting in his chair.
My guy, fighting golems with RoB powerstance is like signing up for a UFC match with Hulk. Go for hammers, UGS, or just claymores. Darkmoon greatsword weapon art quickly brings them down to their knees in like 2-3 hits.
There are random variants of field boss enemies around the map. If you want a challenge fight the runebear in the consecrated snowfield. Thing is a beast, had way more HP than other runebears
@@300kyuubi more like russian f***ing bear... This was the true endgame fight for me. Came back to it after beating the whole game, still kicked my ass A LOT...
One of the painting solutions is down here, which is the only reason I ever found this guy. Beat him after a few tries in regular ng, but man, it was stupidly difficult.
Focusing on the glowing parts is harder for this one than the rest - this golem only has the weak spots on his hands, unlike the rest in the game that let you hit their exposed ankles.
tbh one of the easy ways to beat giants is spamming strong attacks to break their stance and then riposte, 2-3 fully charged attacks should do the trick (to stance break them)
Oh, you found the Hard Mode Golem. Only really a secret if you aren't finding the paintings lying around the place. After BotW's memories quests, this was a piece of cake.
I usually kill these golems pretty easily with the spectral lance ability on the clayman’s harpoon ( does a good amount of dmg to enemy’s poise ), throw a few spears at them and they’ll topple down allowing me you to do a “visceral” attack to their chest, the golem enemies seem to take a lot more dmg from these “visceral” attacks than most enemies so it’s probably the best way to take them down. I also use this same spear against dragons, soooo much fun to throw spears at their face’s causing them to topple down for a visceral to their faces XD
I see someone started with Bloodborne. They're called critical hits in Elden ring. Oh, and good choice with the clayman harpoon. Best spear if you're an Int user. Though I personally prefer Ice Spear instead of Spectral Lance so I can further focus on Int scaling.
Man, even in a fresh NG, this guy is like endgame levels difficult. I just kept building up posture damage with the flail R2 while on horseback at his legs, which was doable but frustrating, since he could basically 1-shot me. And RL 80 is supposed to be the recommended level for Caelid.
I found that golem by mere coincidence when I was doing the painting locations, I was able to took him down first try but he nearly got me, although I don't remember if it drops anything relevant at all or he was just there chilling
@@saobie3142 I just beat him. You’re def going to have to have your shit together. He ain’t no joke! He hits hard. Also just found an evergaol (new). Nearby.
@@mr.duanesharpe Im pretty sure iv beaten every boss in the game, but just out of curiosity, where is this evergaol you found? I wont pull any punches against mr golem then. Aside from not using crystal darts to trivialize it, ill be packing big time
@@saobie3142 yea but go fight it. I’m level 281 as an astrologer with blades. There are 165 bosses and you’ve prob missed a few. I guarantee it. I haven’t updated my PS5 to the new version and I’m still on 1.0 so I missed a few things. Oh well! It’s in Caelid by the Sellia Glintstone Tunnell just to the left of it. Search Sellia Evergoal (YT). You might have beaten it 🤷🏿♂️. I’ll have to go do a search for all areas in Caelid before I go to NG+.
I did killed him on new game plus 3. He doesn’t give you anything though just a normal gollem axe that other ones can drop. You need to have a weapon with high stagger damage and use critical hits to finish him.
You can riposte this guy by the time he's woken up if you're efficient about it. focus *his left* wrist with your biggest attack(s) while he's offline, quickly move on to the right wrist while he's standing up and hit him there too. if he's still going strong, give him a jumping or charged heavy attack on the leg to finish the job, and bam you've knocked his ass down before he even summoned the lasers. more free dmg, free riposte, and plenty of potential to get him caught in a loop to keep it going
I killed it first try with a fire build and it resists fire but it was definetly a lot harder than other golems. Tho, this is not a boss, just a magic halberd one but it's the only one, there are two more magic golems but they're archers and don't have those cool attacks.
Funny, this video came up today for me just as I'm coming back from the ending of my one and only play-thru, to finish up any side quests I can and clear any optional bosses I missed. Like Stray Mimic Tear, two Death Rite Birds, checking all the Evergaels...now I see this guy. Looks like any of the other Golems, but with a Carian machine gun twist, lol. Getting down to his location would fill my rl Madness bar in no time. So no Site of Grace down there is just a double-decker sufferfest sandwich....
@chris kelvin I would also double check that you explored all catacombs and hero graces. Magic towers as well. Grab all bell bearings to stock up on smithing stones and glovehorts. Do as much as you can before you move on to a ng+. It’s amazing how much there is to do.
@@ryanodowd2516 Finally beat him last week. I do have all of the bell bearings, unfortunately burned down the Erdtree before I finished the paintings. Still finding new Sites of Grace here and there- even one in Limgrave I never had! I am exploring the depths and crevices too. So many bosses & areas and besides the Remembrances, there’s no in-game tracker of what you have killed so far! I’m trying my best to compare my memory to the interactive map on Elden Ring Wiki to tick off all the bosses, field bosses and greater enemies. Almost there. I have no intention of doing another fresh game or any NG+, just this one game. Already hundreds of hours in.
I beat him the same way on first play through. NG 7+ he takes longer to kill and I’ve tried out dark hole which works if you don’t move and all 3 taget you. Other than that carrion retaliation helps reflect a beam dmg, and you need to be patient with him. His weak spots are only on his wrist’s. Either you use a max range caster build to hit his wrists while he’s attacking, and then nuke his wrists when he falls down from his attacks. Or dual pulley crossbow with hybrid build. Ranni gear, rot/poison talisman for ap,Alexander’s, and bot Melina’s talismans. You’ll burn him down in 10mins, if all 6 arrows hit per shot. I would even use the shabriri aoe madness for the nice AP boost. If I can beat him with nude two shields on my first NG run, you got this. The problem is people don’t realize until later that his wrists are his weak spots, and everything hits hard when you catch him getting back up. He’s got the same move sets, except those not so accurate beams that seem like a CC design to keep you trapped, not able to play aggressive the entire time.Just need to learn not to get greedy, when landing hard hits on wrists before the lasers pin you down, and then he 1hits you thru the pillars lol. I’ll also use the black knife to give him a hp debuff to make killing him faster. Sometimes I’ll summon the albanuric archer on the tree to dps him while I kite him around waiting for the stupid lasers to start, before I turn around and get aggressive with attacks while I can. I wish there were more bosses like this golem who might’ve been discarded while they created the game, because he’s guarding just a rune. He only gets up when you go near the loot by his right arm or attack him. After I got the AOW I ran around him hoping i would get a spell n his weapon, but things get really fun when you buff him up with crystal darts. I’m glad they made his hit box weakness on his wrists. He’s a great mini boss to try different builds on to see what your burst dps adds up to, and what combinations of buffs do the best burst damage. I never tried hitting him with the bewitching to make him friendly, that way you can kill him without any resistance. That’s if he really wasn’t coded as a mini boss that was supposed to help fight the boss, or they had some other use for him that got scratched, or possibly DLC update. After killing all of the bosses and finding areas that are partially made, but aren’t completed, and there’s no way to get to that location underneath the clouds. Also the hidden walls that appeared after exploring locations and Ghazi wheeling everything until something opened up. I’m sure they will add what happens after your first play through. With all the changes that happened based on your choices, and which 5 endings you got, and quest lines you didn’t do which they make those quest lines that we missed, and/or never completed become the new endgame bosses. Since we removed all of the powerful guys. Plus the games rich lore can make us play before everything went to shit, or continue to where we left off, and what the consequences we have to deal with since we got a certain ending. This game would be great if they let us coop the entire story, but we all decide our own outcome or stay with the group, and actually let people play a tank class with a healer. I was hoping each race we picked had its own perks to push you to build around it’s races bonus trait’s for and make team pve coop based on the builds we created. I’ve got my caster build and during coop I’ll keep up commanders buff up for the AP/DEF buff with erdtree group affinity dmg negation, hp hot, and highest healing group spell on my bar while playing. Then swap talismans around to make my casts at max speed, and have the buff/debuff shabiri spell to temporarily pull agro off everyone, then let the person tanking snap on the talisman to re grab agro again. I did notice that if you have 3 players and juggle the shabiri spell or talisman the enemies get stuck in changing agro animations if timed correctly, and they won’t attack while getting hit by ranged casts. Sometimes the bosses do their special move where you need to dodge, but most times they’re about to do an attack, and stop to turn at who equipped the talisman. if you have someone lay on the ground with the spell buff on, they don’t get hit while the other two juggle the talismans and all 3 rotate doing dps. The best part is when you find a great cheese spot and equip the talisman, the other players just need to dps slowly because sometimes the boss won’t recognize the person in the cheese area with the talisman on, and the other two players are trying to burn the boss down by going all out, and it causes the game to not recognize the person in the cheese spot in game. So when the other two die, the player alive that’s hitting the boss will count as dead though alive, lol.
@@TheSkullofskorpion no shit ay? Like fr just hit it in the leg till it falls, riposte, dead. Wtf is this long ass tangent over a basic mob enemy that has a special laser beam😂😂😂
I beat him on my second try. I used the pillars for cover from his magic attack and the rest was easy. He does have a lot of health for a golem and i thought he is going to drop something valuable, but no just runes. I heard that if you spend enough time farming him eventually he will drop the halberd, but it is the same one the other Golems drop so i did not bother.
I genuinely feel like this was Sellia's Masterpiece that went missing when the whole scarlet rot and dragons n' shit were threatening humanity. The rest that were created afterwards were rushed products that eventually failed. I believe the "sleeping" dragon at Fort Faroth was the one that was responsible for how it ended up down there because the dragon hardly moves as it's being attacked almost as like it was injured fighting something...
I ended up down there by accident on my first game play and I had been saving up my runes for a massive level up. Point of the story is that he took 122k runes… And I rage quitted and had to buy a new control.
ranged spells or Radan's great arrows worked for me - just took a while to grind him down. (shooting from branch or pillars - cant remember, but there is a pretty safe spot if you do go range) But in the end this boss is too much effort for too little reward
Huh. 1.) I didn't even know you could get down there. 2.) he has a light-halberd. It's blue, but he's obviosly a Sith Golem. 3.) and he has Star Trek Original Series phasers. Great.
@@jamjam-1418 Crystal darts are only useful if you have to fight more than one at the same time. It doesn’t damage them it drives them berserk making them attack everything including other enemies. If it’s a single enemy then don’t waste your darts.
I killed a magic bat on the cliffs near dragonbarrow the other day and the bat fell yet it had the white glow indicating it dropped something but it was like a mile down the cliff. Out of sheer curiosity I tried for 2 hours to get to this cliff dying multiple times along the way convinced there was more to discover. This video verifies my hunch lol
Throw a bunch of crystal darts until he malfunctions then whoop him, also my understanding as to why he's just randomly laying at the bottom of a cliff is he was meant to protect the fort above but was knocked down by Radahn while he was learning/or as a result from learning to master gravity. I found a video giving a theorized explanation on it
Man your torrent parcour is on another level. I know you have probably made that decent more times than you would like to remember. It looked effortless🤯
I am still on my first play through and tried going against that guy after I got the gift from the artist, who painted "Redmane" painting from that spot. Needless to say that he killed me rather quickly, and I wasn't even trying to buff myself then. Started off as usual, with a weapon's skill, I believe. But I grabbed the rune arc the first thing, before it could have a chance to get up! XD
So, I’m sure you’ve figured this out by now, this is for those who haven’t. You need to stagger them and do the whole stab animation into their chest. They get staggered pretty easily by rock sling, fourth throw they’ll stagger, do that two or three times and they’ll be deleted
Worst part is he doesnt drop anything. Grab the items near him. That's it. Learned that first playthrough after literally an hour doing the jumping puzzle and dieing half a dozen times. I died so u dont have to Its 2x more health and power than a regular golem but goes down hard with big poise bonk weapons
Using a great bow to shoot his wrists worked out for me as I killed him from the ledge up top first try and with buffs and the correct talismans it didn’t take long at all… You get an ash of war for a bow and he doesn’t yield hardly any runes lol…
Found him on the first play through, beat him by cheezing him. Theres an area on the north side where the orbs dont reach and neither does his attacks because he keeps retreating back
it took me waaaay too long to realize that it was his hands that were the weak point, unlike any other golem I've found. I smacked them legs and got smacked around....
Can you cover all other "secret bosses" that are spread out? I think you could get away baiting with ever golem location. Here's an idea: "Super secret area with a hidden boss in Lyndell." And of course, I mean the tower with the trap chest that leads to a tower in Lyndell.
It’s 100% not worth the aggravation to get a measly sum of runes and literally no item or trophy, theirs zero upside to this fight so if you’re struggling just skip it
It took me a couple tries, I would buff and then get up close and charge up ancient dragon's lightning strike twice and that takes out like half or more of his HP (it shreds bosses HP's anyway). The rest of the damage I was doing was through inflicting frostbite with my dual wielded twinblades, using jump attacks.
First time beating it. It wasn't particularly hard. Quick Melee Strat for this boss: If you have Bloodhound's Fang or stronger weapons, you can stagger him for riposte with repeatedly well timed strong attacks at its heels. This strat takes a bit of time and effort but it still works and is less trickier than going for the weak spots at its arms. You can easily lose poise damage you built up from the repeated attempts and taking too long at hitting its arm weak spots. The floating beam attack locks on to your last positon and stays there so it can be easily evaded once it's "beaming" and you can also use the pillars to block them and minimize risk. If anything, it's just a buffed up standard golem with a new ability. The hard part is getting there. I lost 20k+ runes trying to get where he was and died too many times before because platforming in Elden Ring is something I have a hard time getting good at. What's worse is its rune yield of 5k+ (New Game) after killing it makes the whole boss fight kinda not worth the trouble. Getting the golem down there was a bad idea in my humble opinion. Effort and Risk =/= Reward, sadly. My advice is, if you want to get this guy for the sake of completion, make sure you've spent all your runes on whatever as you can easily lose a shitton on the way down.
oh I thought it was something new. I found this guy just from exploring Caelid. I am very thorough on my first playthrough, I'm not even finished with it yet. gotta explore everything before killing a boss of an area.
After 8 runs through the game and almost 900 hours of game time i can honestly say im completely done ever playing this game again but really did like the game
Chad Golem fcks yo. i've been slowly trudging through my first run, while staying at base lvl. (no melina, no levels, no horse, no roundtable, no spirits/spirit-bell) getting to AND killing this guy were both so difficult that i settled on backing up my save just before i wake him up so i could keep reloading down the roots and ready to go again. i stg it saved me like 2 hours of my life.
I love when people use RoB on Mohg…..the 🤬ing LORD OF BLOOD. What they don’t realize is everytime you proc blood loss on him you give him the buff that makes his attacks stronger from being in the vicinity of blood loss.
Bait the attack where he brings the halberd down and both hands stay on the ground for a beat, unleash everything you have on his hands, I found fast hitting weapons such as occult claws (I’m assuming you’ve levelled arcane judging by the weapon you’re using) with bloodhound step ash of war equipped that way you can get in and out without taking damage. Also best not to lock on as the camera messes you up when you get close. As long as you get your positioning right and hit the lava section near his hands you’ll see his health just melt away.
Seems like my build is too OP. Double Giant Crusher on NG+1. Went in, got the riposte before he even got up. After that 10% health left. Two more jump attacks, done. He didn't even do a single attack. Maybe I should try it with a sword one day for the challenge.
Bruhhh, I am straight up STUMPED on what this dude is doing just lurkin over the ledge way out in the straight up CUTTY cutts of BFE Caelid. Like no joke when I found him I thought they had just forgot to slap his boss healthbar at the bottom of the screen or somethin. He basically fits all the criteria of a mini boss fight that I could ever think of; #1. While sharing the basic Wrist-Only Golem model he has moves in his moveset that are completely unique to him and him alone. #2. His weapon he uses is unique, speaking of does anyone know if the weapon is farmable? #3. He lies at the dead end of a location that is not easily accessible. #4. Is a total bitch to fight unless over-leveled. (especially in this case considering the area you are able to fight him in is basically just a representation of his attack range) Sooooo as far as the description you gave him as Caelids secret boss ima have to say…..Dude, Word.

Get two hits in on the glowing yellow parts and back off immediately. 4) Repeat 5) Slash weapons, like Katanas, do less damage to armoured enemies.
Easiest strat I found was to just go for the legs with Flame of the Redmanes. If you stagger it once, the fight is over. You riposte and then start using the Flames again while it's getting up. It will fall back down again before it has a chance to attack and the cycle repeats. It took 3 Flames of the Redmanes for the first stagger iirc, so you just need to survive for like 6 seconds and then it's gg.

Something to note as well. If you find yourself fighting more than one golem, use the Crystal Darts on one of them. They have the same effect on golems as they do on the stone imps in the catacombs. Meaning you will drive it berserk and it will aggro and attack anything on site…including the other golems
My Collosal Greatsword ussually puts them on their knes in 2-3 hits
They are by far the easiest bosses to take down
@@LordOfChaos.x and the critical strike does insane damage
@@LordOfChaos.x true but magic/faith/bleed/katana/builds that don’t utilize Greatsword/Ultra weapons might struggle, at least in the beginning so this is a good tactic early level until you can go all unga bunga on their hinnies 👍🏿

Oh and his purpose there is to “guard” one of the treasures that’s hinted to you by the portraits you find in the game. Each portrait hints a location, go to that location and the ghost of the artist(?) appears and leaves behind a item for you. The item there is actually a ash of war… I think it’s some arrow rain ash of war for your bow, I have it but I can’t remember the name of it off the top of my head XD
The one that Radahns Lions Greatbow has?
@@phazedkilledyou Very similar, its just radahn's lion greatbow has a stronger version of the rain of arrows ash of war.
@@Opei been wanting to try out a build with it lol I def will do it on my third character when I run out of larval tears on my 2nd character
@@phazedkilledyou Im not really sure its that good of an ash of war to base a build around personally. I dont ever use bows for actual damage tho so i wouldnt know.
@@Opei it's specifically good against large enemies like elden beast or dragons if it behaves like radahns rain.
Might be good for status applications
You're supposed to attack the titans where they have fire/lava bursting out, that's their weak spot. For most it's the legs, but this one's weak spot are his hands which is a bit tricky. I took him out with a greatbow and lots of dodging,
I think you can break the protected parts, i dunno, i just saw a golem hitting the other in the feet and the armor was gone
Did he drop anything?
@@finesir sadly no
@F I N E they can drop a golems halberd
The real boss is the sorrow you experience when you realize it's not guarding anything interesting, and that there's no way down to Radahn's arena from there
Check out part 2! Its INSANE!!
Yep. I found this guy myself, ground my way up on my first playthrough, powered through beating the dude, and I was so disappointed. Absolutely no payout.
@@InsatiableMonkey this is the location to a ghost that gives you a reward after picking up a painting. You get an ash of war from the ghost.
Totally agree: I beat it (come on... it's not thaaaat difficult with all columns to hide out), and was quite disapointed about the unexisting loots & xp :D
@@filmedina2943 true. But You don't need to kill the golem for that.
Gravity magic, specifically rock throw, got me the dub against this beast.
I don't know if anyone has said that, but I found that you can actually cheese it by standing on the edge of this platform(which is the farthest to where the golem is), and just shoot it with arrows. It will come to you but stops midway and starts to go back, and during the process it will not do any attack moves. This may because how it movesets are coded, and the agro range is low for this one.
Yup that's how i defeated that damn golem lol
thank u very much
which plateform are you talking about ?
@@ericchampagne4771 the one which the golem is at
Maidenless behavior.
I went there for the painter. Saw this guy. Tried to fight him twice. Realized he's the real final boss I have to defeat someday!
Just stay on the roots and don't drop down. You have a good advantage point from up high
II will continue to try and melee him with Mogh’s trident, the Bloodhound’s Fang and/or the Great Stars…. If I cannot take him down with melee then magic but I refuse to snipe this guy since he is SO POWERFUL and the space is so confined I consider it a personal challenge to take him down without ranged weapons from the branches above - though I respect anyone that can defeat this one in any method ! So good luck to you all and please post more here about your experiences so we can all learn more.
There is a stone barrier that he doesn’t pass. Just buy 999 regular arrows
The real boss is the rune bear at consecrated snow field.
He is tough, but honestly, reaching him was the hardest part. I died several times missing jumps on the horse. Once i reached him, beat him first try.
what does he drop?
@@walbenzo47767 nothing in particular. But theres an bow AoW nearby
@@leonardodavi2695 Yeah I got the painting guy over on that ledge. I tried to beat him a few times but got tired of parkouring down there.
Fun fact for those struggling, the axe talisman and the bubble tear that increases charged heavies can stagger this giant with ease of charge attacking his ankles
Fun fact that this is not even a boss that worth to fight
You can just do like 2-4 fully charged power attacks with a colossal weapon, then they fall over facing whatever side you are closest to when you hit them last. Then you just crit their chest and it does like minimum half hp, one shots other golems. It helps if they have fire ankles but it's not a big deal if they don't.
Watch part 2! The conclusion is EPIC!
If you have the watchdog staff use that. Or the giant sword. Even bloodhound Fang and keep hitting the art. You need to break his stance. Rob is a terrible weapon for this fight.
"Immune to bleed, poison, and scarlet rot"
Uses RoB
It's usually a good idea to have a few high leveled weapons in different categories. And the visual appearance of flesh/armor can hint to what will and won't work.
It's for the laughs, check out part 2 bro!
@@ProjectOrionGaming 'just for the laughs' the countless panic rolls and lack of understanding of golem attack patterns says otherwise.
Bonus points for chugging heals and accidentally qeueing corpse piler only to hit nothing.
I once tried to rush to deeproot depth to enter leyndell as an illegal immigrant.
so i had to fight the two golemns before the coffin.
but i played a bleed build and it seemed almost impossible
so i got this hammer you find close to where you pick up the mimic tear
got it to +5 or something and beat the two golems
fight was still insanely hard for me, but it was possible just by carrying another weapon
A rune arc and the ash of war rain of arrows is what you get from here. Rune arc is sitting under the giant and roa is dropped after you talk to the spirit sitting in his chair.
I already knew when he woke up that slow and that axe started glowing, he was a problem😭😭😭
You can stagger it with a few casts of the Flames of Redmanes ash of war. 😊
Exactly I did the same thing and killed him with no problem at all in like 2 critical strikes and it was over😅
My guy, fighting golems with RoB powerstance is like signing up for a UFC match with Hulk. Go for hammers, UGS, or just claymores. Darkmoon greatsword weapon art quickly brings them down to their knees in like 2-3 hits.
🤣🤣 I figured out to use striking weapons, not slash
There are random variants of field boss enemies around the map. If you want a challenge fight the runebear in the consecrated snowfield. Thing is a beast, had way more HP than other runebears
Russian runebear
@@300kyuubi more like russian f***ing bear... This was the true endgame fight for me. Came back to it after beating the whole game, still kicked my ass A LOT...
which one? Theres a bunch that come out from under the snow when you kill some things or pick things up.
One of the painting solutions is down here, which is the only reason I ever found this guy. Beat him after a few tries in regular ng, but man, it was stupidly difficult.
He might be so hard because you're trying to bleed him when he can't bleed, and not focussing on the glowing parts.
Focusing on the glowing parts is harder for this one than the rest - this golem only has the weak spots on his hands, unlike the rest in the game that let you hit their exposed ankles.
tbh one of the easy ways to beat giants is spamming strong attacks to break their stance and then riposte, 2-3 fully charged attacks should do the trick (to stance break them)
Jump attacks are better imho. Less startup lag, less end lag, and keeps you mobile in order to avoid getting hit yourself.
Oh, you found the Hard Mode Golem. Only really a secret if you aren't finding the paintings lying around the place. After BotW's memories quests, this was a piece of cake.
I usually kill these golems pretty easily with the spectral lance ability on the clayman’s harpoon ( does a good amount of dmg to enemy’s poise ), throw a few spears at them and they’ll topple down allowing me you to do a “visceral” attack to their chest, the golem enemies seem to take a lot more dmg from these “visceral” attacks than most enemies so it’s probably the best way to take them down.
I also use this same spear against dragons, soooo much fun to throw spears at their face’s causing them to topple down for a visceral to their faces XD
I see someone started with Bloodborne. They're called critical hits in Elden ring.
Oh, and good choice with the clayman harpoon. Best spear if you're an Int user. Though I personally prefer Ice Spear instead of Spectral Lance so I can further focus on Int scaling.
Man, even in a fresh NG, this guy is like endgame levels difficult. I just kept building up posture damage with the flail R2 while on horseback at his legs, which was doable but frustrating, since he could basically 1-shot me. And RL 80 is supposed to be the recommended level for Caelid.
Yeah, thing thing is serious.
flail? you might as well have used ROB like he did...
no thanks, i actually like gitting gud.
if you're one of those that dont have 1000 hours in the game yet, he's starting at Caelid's Fort Faroth grace and going north.
Rivers of Blood user:”It’s immune to bleed so it’s a difficult enemy.”U know you can 1shot it if you poise break him.
You literally cannot. Watch part 2, I did it like 3 times
This was not on first playthrough so he was alot tougher than usual
I found that golem by mere coincidence when I was doing the painting locations, I was able to took him down first try but he nearly got me, although I don't remember if it drops anything relevant at all or he was just there chilling
Yeah he is a beast. Boss or not, even getting there is harder than most bosses.
"It's immune to bleed"
> Uses exclusively Corpse Piler
"WHY WON'T IT DIE!?!?"
LOL
Genuinely never seen this before, and its a unique enemy encounter. This is neat
Me either. Now I HAVE to go and have a toss with this creature. Like right now before NG+.
@@mr.duanesharpe Too late for me, on NG3 now and i bet ill have to come prepared and not just wing it like i always do
@@saobie3142 I just beat him. You’re def going to have to have your shit together. He ain’t no joke! He hits hard. Also just found an evergaol (new). Nearby.
@@mr.duanesharpe Im pretty sure iv beaten every boss in the game, but just out of curiosity, where is this evergaol you found?
I wont pull any punches against mr golem then. Aside from not using crystal darts to trivialize it, ill be packing big time
@@saobie3142 yea but go fight it. I’m level 281 as an astrologer with blades. There are 165 bosses and you’ve prob missed a few. I guarantee it. I haven’t updated my PS5 to the new version and I’m still on 1.0 so I missed a few things. Oh well!
It’s in Caelid by the Sellia Glintstone Tunnell just to the left of it. Search Sellia Evergoal (YT). You might have beaten it 🤷🏿♂️. I’ll have to go do a search for all areas in Caelid before I go to NG+.
Whelp now I gotta go find him and see how many gravity bolt spams it takes to break his stance
Until you run out of mana, better set all your flasks to blue lol
I did killed him on new game plus 3. He doesn’t give you anything though just a normal gollem axe that other ones can drop. You need to have a weapon with high stagger damage and use critical hits to finish him.
You can riposte this guy by the time he's woken up if you're efficient about it.
focus *his left* wrist with your biggest attack(s) while he's offline, quickly move on to the right wrist while he's standing up and hit him there too. if he's still going strong, give him a jumping or charged heavy attack on the leg to finish the job, and bam you've knocked his ass down before he even summoned the lasers.
more free dmg, free riposte, and plenty of potential to get him caught in a loop to keep it going
I killed it first try with a fire build and it resists fire but it was definetly a lot harder than other golems. Tho, this is not a boss, just a magic halberd one but it's the only one, there are two more magic golems but they're archers and don't have those cool attacks.
What sucks is after you kill him you get nothing extra. You get the item he's guarding weather you kill him or not.
Use bubbles. He doesnt stand a chance against envoy longhorns AOW.
Funny, this video came up today for me just as I'm coming back from the ending of my one and only play-thru, to finish up any side quests I can and clear any optional bosses I missed. Like Stray Mimic Tear, two Death Rite Birds, checking all the Evergaels...now I see this guy. Looks like any of the other Golems, but with a Carian machine gun twist, lol. Getting down to his location would fill my rl Madness bar in no time. So no Site of Grace down there is just a double-decker sufferfest sandwich....
@chris kelvin
I would also double check that you explored all catacombs and hero graces. Magic towers as well. Grab all bell bearings to stock up on smithing stones and glovehorts. Do as much as you can before you move on to a ng+. It’s amazing how much there is to do.
@@ryanodowd2516 Finally beat him last week. I do have all of the bell bearings, unfortunately burned down the Erdtree before I finished the paintings. Still finding new Sites of Grace here and there- even one in Limgrave I never had! I am exploring the depths and crevices too. So many bosses & areas and besides the Remembrances, there’s no in-game tracker of what you have killed so far! I’m trying my best to compare my memory to the interactive map on Elden Ring Wiki to tick off all the bosses, field bosses and greater enemies. Almost there. I have no intention of doing another fresh game or any NG+, just this one game. Already hundreds of hours in.
I beat him the same way on first play through. NG 7+ he takes longer to kill and I’ve tried out dark hole which works if you don’t move and all 3 taget you. Other than that carrion retaliation helps reflect a beam dmg, and you need to be patient with him. His weak spots are only on his wrist’s. Either you use a max range caster build to hit his wrists while he’s attacking, and then nuke his wrists when he falls down from his attacks. Or dual pulley crossbow with hybrid build. Ranni gear, rot/poison talisman for ap,Alexander’s, and bot Melina’s talismans. You’ll burn him down in 10mins, if all 6 arrows hit per shot. I would even use the shabriri aoe madness for the nice AP boost. If I can beat him with nude two shields on my first NG run, you got this. The problem is people don’t realize until later that his wrists are his weak spots, and everything hits hard when you catch him getting back up. He’s got the same move sets, except those not so accurate beams that seem like a CC design to keep you trapped, not able to play aggressive the entire time.Just need to learn not to get greedy, when landing hard hits on wrists before the lasers pin you down, and then he 1hits you thru the pillars lol. I’ll also use the black knife to give him a hp debuff to make killing him faster. Sometimes I’ll summon the albanuric archer on the tree to dps him while I kite him around waiting for the stupid lasers to start, before I turn around and get aggressive with attacks while I can. I wish there were more bosses like this golem who might’ve been discarded while they created the game, because he’s guarding just a rune. He only gets up when you go near the loot by his right arm or attack him. After I got the AOW I ran around him hoping i would get a spell n his weapon, but things get really fun when you buff him up with crystal darts. I’m glad they made his hit box weakness on his wrists. He’s a great mini boss to try different builds on to see what your burst dps adds up to, and what combinations of buffs do the best burst damage. I never tried hitting him with the bewitching to make him friendly, that way you can kill him without any resistance. That’s if he really wasn’t coded as a mini boss that was supposed to help fight the boss, or they had some other use for him that got scratched, or possibly DLC update. After killing all of the bosses and finding areas that are partially made, but aren’t completed, and there’s no way to get to that location underneath the clouds. Also the hidden walls that appeared after exploring locations and Ghazi wheeling everything until something opened up. I’m sure they will add what happens after your first play through. With all the changes that happened based on your choices, and which 5 endings you got, and quest lines you didn’t do which they make those quest lines that we missed, and/or never completed become the new endgame bosses. Since we removed all of the powerful guys. Plus the games rich lore can make us play before everything went to shit, or continue to where we left off, and what the consequences we have to deal with since we got a certain ending. This game would be great if they let us coop the entire story, but we all decide our own outcome or stay with the group, and actually let people play a tank class with a healer. I was hoping each race we picked had its own perks to push you to build around it’s races bonus trait’s for and make team pve coop based on the builds we created. I’ve got my caster build and during coop I’ll keep up commanders buff up for the AP/DEF buff with erdtree group affinity dmg negation, hp hot, and highest healing group spell on my bar while playing. Then swap talismans around to make my casts at max speed, and have the buff/debuff shabiri spell to temporarily pull agro off everyone, then let the person tanking snap on the talisman to re grab agro again.
I did notice that if you have 3 players and juggle the shabiri spell or talisman the enemies get stuck in changing agro animations if timed correctly, and they won’t attack while getting hit by ranged casts. Sometimes the bosses do their special move where you need to dodge, but most times they’re about to do an attack, and stop to turn at who equipped the talisman. if you have someone lay on the ground with the spell buff on, they don’t get hit while the other two juggle the talismans and all 3 rotate doing dps. The best part is when you find a great cheese spot and equip the talisman, the other players just need to dps slowly because sometimes the boss won’t recognize the person in the cheese area with the talisman on, and the other two players are trying to burn the boss down by going all out, and it causes the game to not recognize the person in the cheese spot in game. So when the other two die, the player alive that’s hitting the boss will count as dead though alive, lol.
Bruh goddamn is just a golem….

Watch part 2 of the video, its SO epic!
Gravity Magic is the key!
@@ProjectOrionGaming will do
I beat him on my second try. I used the pillars for cover from his magic attack and the rest was easy. He does have a lot of health for a golem and i thought he is going to drop something valuable, but no just runes. I heard that if you spend enough time farming him eventually he will drop the halberd, but it is the same one the other Golems drop so i did not bother.
He does not drop the halberd, me and a friend both killed him a ridiculous amount of times. Like over 50. No drop
I genuinely feel like this was Sellia's Masterpiece that went missing when the whole scarlet rot and dragons n' shit were threatening humanity. The rest that were created afterwards were rushed products that eventually failed.
I believe the "sleeping" dragon at Fort Faroth was the one that was responsible for how it ended up down there because the dragon hardly moves as it's being attacked almost as like it was injured fighting something...
Use the angel winged scythe. Amazing stagger and damage against him. If I’m not mistaken, it takes 3 ash of war attacks should stagger him
Or flame of redmanes like twice
I ended up down there by accident on my first game play and I had been saving up my runes for a massive level up.
Point of the story is that he took 122k runes…
And I rage quitted and had to buy a new control.
Lmao
ranged spells or Radan's great arrows worked for me - just took a while to grind him down. (shooting from branch or pillars - cant remember, but there is a pretty safe spot if you do go range) But in the end this boss is too much effort for too little reward
Huh.
1.) I didn't even know you could get down there.
2.) he has a light-halberd. It's blue, but he's obviosly a Sith Golem.
3.) and he has Star Trek Original Series phasers. Great.
Crystal darts make giants irrelevant. You can even craft them using cracked crystal found in surplus at gaol cave

NG+5 to find out that golems are immune to bleed? Ok, no problem ^^
Thanks for the video, it was entertaining. :)
Perfect target to test my brand new rain of arrow damage xD
He's a monster. And the run back is awful.
I killed a magic bat on the cliffs near dragonbarrow the other day and the bat fell yet it had the white glow indicating it dropped something but it was like a mile down the cliff. Out of sheer curiosity I tried for 2 hours to get to this cliff dying multiple times along the way convinced there was more to discover. This video verifies my hunch lol
He's insane. Watch part 2 for the conclusion! 😁😁
Can you pick him off with the bow,like really far distance,my guess it would take an absurd amount of arrows,but worth a shot
I took him down this way. Lion bow ashe of war spam lol
yep...i took him down with a serpent bow from the last broken tower you find on the path down...it takes a lot of arrows
Yup you can. Takes a bit of time if you haven’t specced into any type of bow but can still be done fairly easily
Throw a bunch of crystal darts until he malfunctions then whoop him, also my understanding as to why he's just randomly laying at the bottom of a cliff is he was meant to protect the fort above but was knocked down by Radahn while he was learning/or as a result from learning to master gravity. I found a video giving a theorized explanation on it
Man your torrent parcour is on another level. I know you have probably made that decent more times than you would like to remember. It looked effortless🤯
Oh yeah. I went down there more than a few times, lol 🤣🤣
Also, check out my new video on the Empyrean Lore That I Discovered! th-cam.com/video/fErZUgz4vY4/w-d-xo.html
That's too funny. I fell off that cliff today and saw that blue guy on the way to my death and thought "hmm. Must be nothing."
Haven't watched yet. Bet it's the God Golem.
edit: yep
I am still on my first play through and tried going against that guy after I got the gift from the artist, who painted "Redmane" painting from that spot. Needless to say that he killed me rather quickly, and I wasn't even trying to buff myself then. Started off as usual, with a weapon's skill, I believe. But I grabbed the rune arc the first thing, before it could have a chance to get up! XD
Lol
So, I’m sure you’ve figured this out by now, this is for those who haven’t. You need to stagger them and do the whole stab animation into their chest. They get staggered pretty easily by rock sling, fourth throw they’ll stagger, do that two or three times and they’ll be deleted
When a bleed build meets an enemy that can’t bleed
Worst part is he doesnt drop anything. Grab the items near him. That's it.
Learned that first playthrough after literally an hour doing the jumping puzzle and dieing half a dozen times.
I died so u dont have to
Its 2x more health and power than a regular golem but goes down hard with big poise bonk weapons
Check out part 2! The conclusion is really funny, also INSANE!
Using a great bow to shoot his wrists worked out for me as I killed him from the ledge up top first try and with buffs and the correct talismans it didn’t take long at all… You get an ash of war for a bow and he doesn’t yield hardly any runes lol…
"He is obviously immune to bleed"
*Proceeds to constantly use a bleed AoW*

I gotta wonder if they had grander plans for this guy, given the absurd difficulty and lack of a worthwhile reward.
I beat this dude. From afar, of course. Almost 300 arrows... This place rewards you one of the paintings secrets
Check out part 2 for the epic conclusion!
Dude only drops like 3k runes but you get the ghostly painter to show up and drop the item.
There was that time he was coming at you with an overhead slam … what an epic dodge! I thought you were toast for sure
Check out my Epic Margit Fight video too!
Found him on the first play through, beat him by cheezing him. Theres an area on the north side where the orbs dont reach and neither does his attacks because he keeps retreating back
Check out part 2! The hilarious ending is EPIC!
it took me waaaay too long to realize that it was his hands that were the weak point, unlike any other golem I've found. I smacked them legs and got smacked around....
using double rivers of blood and only spamming the weapon art, the ultimate maidenless behaviour
Lmao
flame of the redmanes makes all golems trivial, even the ones with strong ankles
Yeah, it hits for like 40 poise per hit. Super OP at bigger poise based enemies.
I found this guy in my playthrough and couldn’t beat him either. I found him because he’s right next to one of the spots the paintings take you to.
watch part 2, I actually barely beat him but it was an amazing fight!
Can you cover all other "secret bosses" that are spread out? I think you could get away baiting with ever golem location. Here's an idea:
"Super secret area with a hidden boss in Lyndell." And of course, I mean the tower with the trap chest that leads to a tower in Lyndell.
I'm currently working on a few others 🙃
I thought I was straight trippin' when I fought this thing looking for the painting reward. Holy hell it knocked my ass out lol
It’s 100% not worth the aggravation to get a measly sum of runes and literally no item or trophy, theirs zero upside to this fight so if you’re struggling just skip it
@@darrell5363 I agree. 😂
I love how after watching you fight this massive boss, you about face and jump off a cliff 👏 😀
Check out part 2!! The second part is EPIC!
It took me a couple tries, I would buff and then get up close and charge up ancient dragon's lightning strike twice and that takes out like half or more of his HP (it shreds bosses HP's anyway). The rest of the damage I was doing was through inflicting frostbite with my dual wielded twinblades, using jump attacks.
First time beating it. It wasn't particularly hard. Quick Melee Strat for this boss: If you have Bloodhound's Fang or stronger weapons, you can stagger him for riposte with repeatedly well timed strong attacks at its heels. This strat takes a bit of time and effort but it still works and is less trickier than going for the weak spots at its arms. You can easily lose poise damage you built up from the repeated attempts and taking too long at hitting its arm weak spots. The floating beam attack locks on to your last positon and stays there so it can be easily evaded once it's "beaming" and you can also use the pillars to block them and minimize risk. If anything, it's just a buffed up standard golem with a new ability. The hard part is getting there. I lost 20k+ runes trying to get where he was and died too many times before because platforming in Elden Ring is something I have a hard time getting good at. What's worse is its rune yield of 5k+ (New Game) after killing it makes the whole boss fight kinda not worth the trouble. Getting the golem down there was a bad idea in my humble opinion. Effort and Risk =/= Reward, sadly. My advice is, if you want to get this guy for the sake of completion, make sure you've spent all your runes on whatever as you can easily lose a shitton on the way down.
It's unfortunate he's immune to bleed, because you really figured out how to use Corpse Piler
LMAO
i tried for an hour to get down there, but could never make the landing onto the final root/branch. glad i didn't miss anything
🤣🤣 12k runes. lol Also an ash of war spawns there for a painter quest.

I am very thorough on my first playthrough, I'm not even finished with it yet. gotta explore everything before killing a boss of an area.
Bro, check out part 2 on my channel. It's hilarious!
After 8 runs through the game and almost 900 hours of game time i can honestly say im completely done ever playing this game again but really did like the game
Chad Golem fcks yo.
i've been slowly trudging through my first run, while staying at base lvl. (no melina, no levels, no horse, no roundtable, no spirits/spirit-bell)
getting to AND killing this guy were both so difficult that i settled on backing up my save just before i wake him up so i could keep reloading down the roots and ready to go again.
i stg it saved me like 2 hours of my life.
I killed it first try with my greatsword build, but it put quite the fight compared to regular golems. Kinda wish they were all like that.
Flame of the Redmanes + Alexanders shard = Poor fella
I spent more time trying not to die from fall dmg just to get to him...he was a pain especially since area was more compact than usual boss areas.
Thumbnail didnt load assumed I was about to get told radahn exist. Nice vid.
and this people is why we dont rely on rivers of blood for every encounter.
I love when people use RoB on Mohg…..the 🤬ing LORD OF BLOOD.
What they don’t realize is everytime you proc blood loss on him you give him the buff that makes his attacks stronger from being in the vicinity of blood loss.
Bait the attack where he brings the halberd down and both hands stay on the ground for a beat, unleash everything you have on his hands, I found fast hitting weapons such as occult claws (I’m assuming you’ve levelled arcane judging by the weapon you’re using) with bloodhound step ash of war equipped that way you can get in and out without taking damage. Also best not to lock on as the camera messes you up when you get close. As long as you get your positioning right and hit the lava section near his hands you’ll see his health just melt away.
The beams only seek you until they are fired after that they remain still and keep firing where they were shot. The little circle beams he does.
Anyone that has ash rain of arrows knows he's there, just took him out with rock sling , took a while though, melee would be a different story.
Seems like my build is too OP. Double Giant Crusher on NG+1.
Went in, got the riposte before he even got up. After that 10% health left. Two more jump attacks, done. He didn't even do a single attack.
Maybe I should try it with a sword one day for the challenge.
You should watch part 2, its SO epic!😁😁
good video, loved the editing and text on screen. ALso like a few others said as well, thanks for sharing something I actually didn't know beforehand!
Watch part 2! Its epic and also hilarious! th-cam.com/video/ohiuML_SnS4/w-d-xo.html
Hmmm, so much effort and all I got was a smithing stone. He is the equivalent of "all i got was this lousy t-shirt"
Check out part 2 !! It's amazing!
Dang homie, I took a bit of a break from the game. Come back to see you have been popping off!
Nice work dude
Also, the placement of this Giant is... odd. To say the least
Thanks :) I agree, to be gaurding this AoW just seems like overkill. You should check out the part 2 video! It's too epic!
What the hell?
How did I miss this?
I'm gonna head South East in Caelid to face him next time I play.
Bruhhh, I am straight up STUMPED on what this dude is doing just lurkin over the ledge way out in the straight up CUTTY cutts of BFE Caelid. Like no joke when I found him I thought they had just forgot to slap his boss healthbar at the bottom of the screen or somethin. He basically fits all the criteria of a mini boss fight that I could ever think of; #1. While sharing the basic Wrist-Only Golem model he has moves in his moveset that are completely unique to him and him alone. #2. His weapon he uses is unique, speaking of does anyone know if the weapon is farmable? #3. He lies at the dead end of a location that is not easily accessible. #4. Is a total bitch to fight unless over-leveled. (especially in this case considering the area you are able to fight him in is basically just a representation of his attack range) Sooooo as far as the description you gave him as Caelids secret boss ima have to say…..Dude, Word.
