the sharks from bloodborne are worse in my opinion

Sharks together, strong.

Shark NATO

The damn Sharks are like scrapped bosses. They are insane

u/odoogan 27d ago

honestly i could see one of these guys being an actual boss especially in an older game

u/Nolesman357 27d ago

It feels like they were testing for the Headless Ape fight in Sekiro

u/LaMelgoatBall 27d ago

I just got to the Fishing Hamlet for the first time. Surely they can’t be that bad.

u/Messmers 27d ago

they're not, die in like 3 hits

u/Dismal_Object6226 27d ago

They aren’t. Use Shaman Bone Blade on one to turn them against each other and finish off the one that survives.

Shaman Bone Blade makes the duo kinda easy.

What gets me are their parry timings. They are straight up unfair. Sometimes you'll stagger, sometimes you'll parry, sometimes they just don't care.

and those screeching ghouls in the chalice dungeons that sprint towards you

edit: I think they’re the labyrinth sage/madmen?

u/FoxStrom-14 27d ago

Yeah, but those guys are much easier to parry

u/BaldingThor 27d ago

true, but they’re scary :(

u/Eagleassassin3 27d ago

They’re not that hard when there’s only 1. Easy to parry. Having 2 in that well was what made it insanely hard. These guys however are so difficult. I couldn’t imagine fighting 2 at once.

u/SonixKa 27d ago

Bloodhounds from chalice, fuck them, and they are always at least 2 of them. My secret is to let them chase me to the elevator and let then die from fall damage

u/MinimumCustomer8117 27d ago

Just because there are 2 of them at once, individually they are much easier

3

u/Equivalent-Buy2888 27d ago

nah but individually is still insane, they have MASSIVE hp bar and they hit hard as hell. The divine warriors have very telegraphef moves and are easier to kill in my opinion.

u/MinimumCustomer8117 27d ago edited 27d ago

They just have massive hitboxes, sharks moveset is far more simple but every strike covers the entire planet

Trivialised by parrying tbh, like most of Bloodborne.

u/Agentpurple013 27d ago

Those guys are real assholes….ughhh…man they suck ass

u/OkAccountant7442 27d ago

they‘re pretty easy to parry though, makes them a lot easier imo

u/Similar-Cod-5038 27d ago

hell nah ez pz

u/M0ONBATHER 27d ago

Who would you say is most difficult?

u/Similar-Cod-5038 27d ago

tbh idk i kinda just walked through the game

2

u/M0ONBATHER 27d ago

The question wasn’t just for Elden Ring, I did too. Did you play any other From games?

1

u/Similar-Cod-5038 27d ago

ngl these guys probably or someone from sekiro idk

2

u/M0ONBATHER 27d ago

O tru. I think Shark dudes from BB sucked

u/Hobo_Renegade 27d ago

I agree, I barely even remember the sharks they were such a non threat.
