Just fought Messmer without a spirit ash or assistance, and when I tell you that I just had the most fun in this game within my year of playing it, I’m in no way joking.

I think it’s 1) I’ve gotten pretty good at this game all things considered and 2) Messmer is genuinely an amazing fight with beautiful attacks followed by great windows and punishes. Him being fun is what kept me from being frustrated with myself. This will permanently cement him as my favorite boss fight in the entire game. There isn’t a competition anymore he won.

#My hands are still shaking (this is a good sign for me somehow)#It took under 10 tries which was less than I was expecting tbh #For clarity’s sake I used the Falx #didn’t even use it’s ash of war or any spells #Just gave myself a basic golden vow aow and ran into the chamber #I sometimes wish he was the final boss so that the dlc could end on the highest possible note #but that would be underwhelming given how marketed he was unfortunately #I am still a consort hater btw even though I’ve beaten them twice by now #Elden ring #messmer the impaler #shadow of the erdtree
