Elden Ring players are regularly figuring out new strategies for beating its many bosses. It has some of the most challenging bosses in FromSoftware’s history, so gamers often look for tactics to cheese the encounter. The latest Elden Ring patch fixed some of the exploits used in these strategies, but many probably remain in the game. However, some players don’t use any glitches and find clever ways of tackling the boss fights.
Godskin Noble is often considered to be one of the most annoying bosses in Elden Ring. His physical attacks are deceptively fast, and he comes equipped with a deadly arsenal of magic attacks. Players have little time to punish him, and his repeated appearance throughout Elden Ring probably adds to the frustration. One of Godskin Noble’s attacks is infamous in the community, but an Elden Ring player may have figured out the perfect way to avoid it.
Godskin Noble has a roll attack that can catch many players off-guard. It has probably caused several deaths, especially during the Godskin Duo boss fight, which is widely considered to be one of the most challenging fights in Elden Ring. However, it appears a Redditor named frigidkitsune has found the perfect strategy to counter this move. The clip features a boss fight against Godskin Noble at Volcano Manor in Elden Ring.
After hitting him a few times with the Dark Moon Greatsword, frigidkitsune backs off in preparation for the rolling attack. The player uses an Elden Ring weapon skill called Lightning Ram, which allows users to perform a rolling move similar to Godskin Noble’s attack. Frigidkitsune waits for the perfect moment and starts using Lightning Ram to go around a pillar in the arena. They both keep hilariously rolling around the pillar until Godskin Noble ends his move, and the user takes out the Dark Moon Greatsword to continue the fight.
Fans will notice that the player uses the Godskin Noble Set, adding to the silliness on display. Frigidkitsune mentioned that they had to respec and put many points into Endurance to pull this off. Otherwise, they risk running out of stamina at a crucial moment due to the lengthy duration of Godskin Noble’s attack. Many players commend this tactic, with some making fun of lines spoken by an Elden Ring boss named Rykard. Users also share other tips for defeating Godskin Noble, and it appears dodging into him during the roll attack is a popular strategy.
Elden Ring is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
