-Review- Godfrey, First Elden Lord/Hoarah Loux (No Damage, SOLO, No Summons, No Magic Tricks)
Godfrey, First Elden Lord Is definitely one of the most impressive bosses I've fought on my journey though Elden Ring. I never got bored and I don't have too many complaints. This boss actually rewards aggression very well with satisfying attack windows to discover and a second phase to remember.
My strategy for the first phase was to ideally have Godfrey use the Axe Throw at the beginning since it allowed such a wide window for strikes and afterwards I would basically squeeze in whatever windows I was aware of. The attack isn't in the footage but there's an attack called the Fissure where Godfrey rips open the ground creating a blast radius. I'm mentioning this because the recovery time is super fast for any kind of proper follow up which is a shame because it can take up so much time however you can fix this by baiting for another Axe Throw so there's a chance to get something out of it. I see a lot of similarities with the Lion Clan Warrior from Dark Souls 2 for obvious reasons. The most satisfying attack to punish is the Regal Roar due to the animation wind up sort of like how the Lightning Bolt attack works for the Draconic Tree Sentinel. The Regal Roar allows so much opportunity for attacking that it'll most likely lead you directly into phase two.
Hoarah Loux which is an advanced version of Champion Gundyr from Dark Souls 3 and it's easily one of my favorite second phases for a boss fight in the From Software games. It's funny how this phase felt shorter but was longer than the first phase. I guess I was having so much fun that I don't even notice.
My strategy consisted of mostly waiting for the dashing grab attacks and following up. In the mean time the best part in my opinion was properly timing the Earth Shattering Stomp that was incredibly rewarding to pull off. By the way it looks like I take damage by the roar attack but it actually doesn't take a way any health surprisingly which is odd because in the Leonine Misbegotten boss you do take damage from a roar attack. At first I was keeping my distance a lot waiting for the dashing grab attacks however I eventually became more comfortable hugging around during the stomp attacks.
I must have spent a total of twenty four hours maybe more studying this boss alone for my SOLO, no summons, no magic tricks and no damage for my own personnel challenge which never had a dull moment. I will look forward to this fight for many playthroughs to come.
