Sounds like Isshin vs Malenia would be a good one. A few times start us off: Reveal hidden contents Ornstein and Smough vs the Godskin Duo Radahn vs Nameless King Gideon Ofnir vs Micolash Abyss Watchers vs Shadows of Yharnam Yhorm vs Rykard Bloody Crow vs Fia's Simp Squad Maliketh vs Gael Radagon vs Soul of Cinder Morgott vs Twin Princes Godrick vs One Reborn Patches battle royale I wanna see the Orphan of Kos show that pussy Elden Beast what a true eldritch being looks like. Oh and Malenia vs Maria tho im pretty sure Malenia would win since she's like Maria on steroids so.... hmm. She's like Maria and Sister Friede in one person. Mmmm. Malenia vs Sister Friede and Mariah 2v1 Cause tbh the bosses in Elden Ring are on an entirely different level than previous fromsoft games. Like Mohg or Morgott, they alone shit on everything in dark souls 3.... his fights in the very beginning and is on par with the fucking aspect of the lords of cinder. Nameless king is easy compared to them imo. Nameless king would be an average boss in elden ring lol. They would have to scale him up some, and have him be a giant dude on an elden ring dragon like the dragon knight guys slinging those op lightning spells atop a fucking dragon instead of a horse AND make that dragon like the partisnacks guy lol three headed and everything and time skipping. THEN he would be worthy of his name in elden ring. Or lol at least a regular dragon with lightning powers xD So. I wanna see the Nameless King scaled up vs like Radahn or something. Aldrich would get shat on by Rykard. "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Good Doctor Posted October 12, 2023 Author Share Posted October 12, 2023 1 minute ago, ColonelKillaBee said: But dont you need the elden ring to kick off anything? The elden ring would be in space lol, for all we know that means the erdtree would dip too I don’t think there’s any suggestion that the tree itself would or could dip. It’s very much connected to the Lands Between both metaphysically and literally, regardless of the present gods or natural order imposed by the Ring. Removing it altogether would make Ranni’s ending go from "questionable and risky" to "outright apocalyptic". Frenzied Flame might need the Elden Ring to use the tree to destroy all life. That is not yet confirmed. But we know it can spread like a plague in some capacity all on its own. And worse, we have that seen curses can spread and infect the world using the tree roots without using the Elden Ring. It’s just seen as "unnatural" when this happens. So my worry would be that the Flame could do the same when there’s nobody around to resist it. Point is, Ranni’s ending is just too loaded with loose ends and unknowns for me. I highly doubt the edgy blue redditor has thought things through enough to even account for these possibilities, considering she didn’t even account for how her plastic ass was gonna accomplish anything past falling into a well. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKillaBee Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 To be fair thats also the point of her ending, but that doesnt take from the point of it being too edgy lol. It can indeed lead to disaster but for some that chance is worth it to be masters of your own destiny. I can sympathize but its also very arrogant, selfish, nihilistic and boring. Atheist drivel. 1 "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nameless king is easy compared to them imo. Compared to Morgott? Really? Damn dude, for me it’s not even close. Bloodlord version of Mohg is up on Nameless King levels, but Morgott ain’t touching either of them, imo. Agreed that ER bosses are generally harder. But I still definitely wouldn’t put NK as an average one among them. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKillaBee Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 As for the frenzied flame it’s possible that you just needed the elden ring out of play, not necessarily needed it to burn the tree. Hence you don’t get a prompt it just burns Tho I’d argue it does and that the elden rings power is what kindles the frenzied flame and it burns way more than just the tree. Otherwise you wouldn’t need the frenzied flame and the giants flame from the forge would have been enough "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was way easier sure but still a tougher fight than nameless king imo. Lorewise it might be different, though morgott is also the head of the court that all the other demigods sat at.

But even discounting the possibility of the FF using the Elden Ring to end all life, I do know that the FF can spread on a smaller scale independently of the Elden Ring, and that the tree roots can be used to amplify the spreading of curses independent of the Ring as well. Both of these things have been going on and getting worse and worse in the time leading up to the game’s beginning, to the point of threatening entire civilizations. Without any Elden Lord or surviving powers to combat this, there’s no reason to believe at all that these things won’t continue to worsen. Maybe they won’t destroy the world with hax like in the FF Ending, but they could still prove quite disastrous in their own right. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think the talk of atheisms is a little unfounded. This world isn't operating on the Christian cosmology. Atheisms, as in denying the existence of God's. Ranni's denial of them doesn't come across as that; it reminds me of the ancient Greek ideal that God's are fickle, selfish beings who don't have mortals best interests which is why we shouldn't trust them. (It's calling the kettle black) The influence of Norse Mythology cannot be understated, and with how the divine drops like flies it's similar to the Aesir/Vanir tend to die alot more then other deities.

This is true, admittedly. I get that through the lense of elden ring. However I’m mostly talking about the fan base who do look at this game through whatever irl lense they are raised on. However even if I did look at it through elden rings lense alone, she herself in making the decision she does is being as fickle as the gods and order she judged. It’s not truly atheistic at all but it appeals to them due to the selfishness they both share in their ideology. They’re ironically very religious in how they try to spread and force their way of thinking on others. In overthrowing the greater will, which people were mostly happy with before the shattering, she’s doing the same thing they are.

No, but it does come closer to this than any other From titles, and pretty blatantly draws some inspirations from it that make Colonel’s comparison applicable. She’s not really an "atheist", but her misgivings against the world’s systems are rooted in similar "woe-is-me" notions of life being hard for some people (namely herself) and therefore the "god" who imposes this system must be bad. That’s why so many surface-level atheists on the internet find her ending so resonant to them, it’s a power trip against a dominant religion, complete with an anime girlfriend to simp over. 2 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelKillaBee Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 In fact I find Ranni’s outlook 1. More honest than atheism and 2. worse than nihilism. Because she is looking at the world, sees that it has meaning and that there are gods with a plan for said world and everyone in it, and deciding that she will be rid of it all and make all, meaningless. It’s not much better than the frenzy ending at all tbh. Only marginally. 1 "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
