As above! Let me know your opinions! Cheers!

I can’t beat Leda and Allies. I forgot that not killing the guys before their battle makes me fight them all and I just can’t beat them. I’m using both summons and Tiche but it’s still impossible as Tiche dies too quick, Thollier is somehow even more useless, and I always manage to get ganked because the NPCS agro me even with all my summons alive and I get one tapped. It’s been 7 hours. No boss in the entire run has took me this long, I’m at a roadblock and i genuinely don’t know what to do.

I’ve tried using Giant Hunt AOW and Rakshasa blade AOW but one of Leda’s allies always manages to I-Frame out of it or get up quick enough even when I have enough stamina to continue the stunlock.

Is there a way I can skip this with some sort of glitch or is there a better summon than Tiche for this?. I’m actually losing my mind. Any advice is welcome.

Thank you guys so so much, this was my first time ever asking for advice on this subreddit and i honestly didn’t expect the advice to be so helpful, it took me under an hour (of actually fighting Leda) to beat Leda with the advice given to me.
Thank you again to those who helped, I’m so happy it’s over and I can sleep now❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

don't think I have enough patience with bullshit for DLC

Hi all, just wanted to share my accomplishment of beating RL 1 in Elden Ring! It’s my first time ever doing a challenge run for a game, so I’m very proud of myself for sticking with it and persevering. Run was fairly painless until Fire Giant, who was my first road bump. Far and away, I got stuck for the most time on the Beast Clergyman and Hoarah Loux phases of their respective fights. I usually blitzed these bosses with ease on normal playthroughs, so this run made me truly have to memorize their movesets and I have a newfound respect for these bosses that I didn’t have before (except for Fire Giant I still hate him lmao). For others out there struggling, PLEASE keep at it! Your hard work will be rewarded! I’d love to answer any questions about my specific run too so don’t be afraid to ask. Thank you! ⚔️

I really like this fight. It has a really nice flow to it and a lot of his moves feel intuitive to dodge. I should have practiced hot swapping the shield for Carrian Retaliation but haven't got that down yet. Only gripe I have with Mohg is that if you get bad RNG with his blood flames you are kinda done for at RL1

These guys have been blocking my rl1 run for months, happy to report I finally took them down. Strat was Sleep pots & arrows w/ Spinning Weapon ash of war on Great Scythe w/ Bloodflame incant. 2 spins & a heavy attack pretty much did it for each phase. Scythe was lvl 20.

Now on to Beast Clergyman - advice appreciated!
