Speed records and cheats are piling up in Elden Ring. Amid speedruns and other "no hit" runs, some players share their weirdest gaming experiences with us. Today: a boss who commits suicide when entering his second phase.

Elden Ring: Pushing a boss to sacrifice himself is possible!

We're getting used to discovering new oddities in the world of Elden Ring . Last week, we discovered among other things that it was possible to fight a boss with a simple branch or that certain invisible walls could take up to fifty hits to be revealed. Classic FromSoftware.

Today, we learn almost with sadness that it is possible to push one of the bosses to sacrifice themselves . Wouldn't the life of a monster in a dark fantasy universe be as beautiful as one might think?

You'd tell us if it weren't right, huh Radahn?

The terrible Red Lion might have had better plans to settle a little further from the huge area covered with water that stands behind him when we meet him: that is where he will meet his end. painful if placed in the right conditions .

It is therefore necessary to lure General Radahn close to the body of water before bringing him down to 50% of his life . At this point, he enters his second boss phase and will begin with an aerial attack, leaping through the air only to fall back into comet form . If he launched this attack while being close enough to the lake, it is in the latter that he will fall and never come back up: the Red Lion sinks and drowns .

Terrible ending for an otherwise rather impressive boss. Especially since it is not a simple glitch that has occurred only once, several players have reported this unconventional method to overcome Radahn. To see the performance with your own eyes or to try to replicate it, you can watch the Reddit post of the user HomeGrownCrown7 or the Twitter account of izuoku_ .

Abuse or legit technique?

Some players consider these kinds of tactics to be abusive, or even outright cheating , while others will talk about performance to find flaws in the game that can be exploited. Opinions differ widely on the methods of using glitches, but it must be recognized that on the one hand, you still have to discover them, and on the other hand, you often need a minimum of technique to be able to apply them.

In this case, for example, you still have to take down the mid-life boss, then succeed in placing him in an extremely specific configuration to bring about his tragic fate, it's not just a matter of pressing a key in being in front of him to obliterate him.

Everyone has their own vision of the game. If you prefer to play the game in a classic way, facing all the dangers with the only weapons that the adventure puts in your hands, you will indeed have lived the experience intended by the developers , but if you are rather the type to tryhard the tricks to the limits, you will experience an adventure out of the game.

Finally, as long as everyone finds their account and the entertainment is there, it doesn't matter, right?
