Kaiden Sellsword | Elden Ring Wiki

Jesus, I have bull-goat set on, and I've got 52 levels in vigor, and one of these guys can still deal 75% of my health with that one attack!

Submit

these guys seem a bit wasted, they're so cool but it's like the devs forgot they were from the consecrated snowfields cause there's no signs of them having been anywhere there apart from a few Sellswords, like how did they make weapons? who made their armor? how did they replenish their numbers? did they replenish their numbers?

Submit

You know these guys scale well into the late game when they can crit for 2.3k damage before negations.

Submit

Heavy attacks, even uncharged, with striking weapons will stun the horses these guys ride - allowing you to essentially stunlock them until the horse either dies or bucks them off. Once they hit the ground, a critical hit is just waiting to be performed on them. (Be quick though. They only stay down for a few seconds.) The same statement holds true even when they're off their horses. A combo of two-handed (uncharged) heavy attacks from a +3 morning star can stunlock the guys in Limgrave to death (Usually. Sometimes you're unlucky and they manage to block it. But even then, their stance is usually broken from the hit.) This works even while they're raging. (On a new game save. Haven't tested it on new game+)

These guys are getting on my nerves

I these bastards Even though I'm at max level..

Very cool outfit

One of the few fair enemies to fight in this game. Love these guys and their drip

Submit

Of course one of the few enjoyable enemies to fight in this game hardly ever gets used outside of Limgrave unlike the ocean of recycled unfun to fight garbage bosses and enemies like Runebears, Imps, Ulcerated Tree Spirits etc etc, it literally says they come from the Wintry Northern Mountaintops (presumably the Mountaintops of the Giants) yet you don't see so much as a single one there other than a scarce few in the Consecrated Snowfield, such a damn shame

Submit

Ah always be honored to fight such good warriors, hard to come by in the Lands Between.

Submit

Guys let's blow this up so Miazaki / Fromsoft may see - ADD THIER PARRY/STRIKE ATTACK AS an AoW!! Would be so great even if it was a block/strike like Carian Knight Sword charged R2! I'm serious I want as a skill so badly it looks awesome and is very realistic which is a nice touch

Submit

Ok so this is totally just headcanon and probably isn't true, but I really wonder if these guys are offshoots from the Zamor line. Hear me out, we've got large-statured warriors who wield curved greatswords, hail from the mountains, wear scale armor adorned with white hair, and seemingly serve whoever gives them the best deal. Idk, it's probably just me being an idiot, but I do wonder if that's a bit of useless lore hidden somewhere.

Submit

Does the horse stay passive when its rider is dead? Because I sniped its rider and the horse went "I'm out"

Submit

Is the scream audio they use unique or..

Submit

My actual name is Kaiden so this a special set to me

Submit

I can kill them if I can see them, but these guys can charge on horseback in complete silence, and suddenly one-shot you from behind. How do they make zero sounds on a charging horse?

Submit

Very cool outfit

One of these guys on horseback just INSTANTLY destroyed one of the carriages that had the great axe in it, wtf is that poise damage?!

Submit

love these guys

Submit

these dudes rock

Submit

Despite the fact that these dudes are supposed to be adept at horseback combat, they are way more deadly on foot than they are on horseback imo.

Submit

These ****ers are annoyingly good at staggering you, i tried using wild strikes on one and he lunged at me and knocked me on my ass as if i was nothing, which is pretty surprising since i had around 51 poise and Wild Strikes gives you pretty good super armor and generally lets you facetank things that would normally stagger you without flinching, these dudes don't seem to give a **** about poise tho, they can easily knock you around like a ragdoll if you play recklessly.

Submit

My favorite enemy in the game. Badass armor and fighting style, love cosplaying as one, and love their lore too! Mongol-Viking hybrid mercs with strength and skill to match the greatest warriors in the Lands Between? Hell yeah! I know it's unlikely, but I hope a future update or DLC focuses on these guys and we get to learn more about them and their culture, maybe even visit Kaiden itself

Submit

Of all the enemies that did not get reused why did it have to be these guys? they were a pain when i was new but i really miss these guys, like it literally says they hail from the wintery northern mountaintops, they should've been in the Mountaintops of the Giants atleast considering how i assume thats the mountaintops that their descriptions is referring to, they are tough without being bs and have a cool fighting style, would've much preferred having some of these guys around the lands more frequently than some of the other crap thats recycled constantly in every region.

Submit

Bruh why are theh only in limgrave? If they are supposed 'travelling mercenaries' shouldn't they be in caelid, altus etc too? So underused. You can only find the common knight and footsoldier everywhere.

Submit

Severely underused enemy

Submit

For a supposed early game enemy with no real gimmick aside from being on horseback, these guys are really ****ing cool both design and combat-wise. Easily one of the best enemies in the entire game.

Submit

Would’ve been cool to see the settlement they’re from, Kaiden. Considering it’s “in the North” it should’ve been either in the Mountaintop of the Giants or the Consecrated Snowfield. Perhaps there’s a continent even further north where they’re from? Either way, would’ve been a perfect opportunity for another Legacy Dungeon location with a leader as a boss.

Submit

Watch out when fighting foot bound sellswords on horseback. if you get knocked off of your horse and one is close to you the sellsword will plunge their blade into your chest often times killing you. In addition, any dismounted sellsword will mount a unoccupied horse if they have the opportunity, so make sure to kill the horses of any mounted enemies if you wish to not fight them mounted.

Submit

most annoying enemy in the game

Submit

I love these big boys

Submit

Despite being mentioned as being from "the north", the design of their armor and the fact that they act as heavy cavalry makes me think of the Sassanian-era cataphracts, especially given the design of the helm and the scale armor. Just give them a spear and armor the horse with some scale barding and it'd be a pretty close match.

Submit

Mongol viking hybrid and i love it

Submit

These guys are parriable.

Submit

Loved watching DSP get obliterated by these guys in consecrated snowfield.

"This is insane!"

Submit

Are these guys based on DS2s Faraam Knights or is it just me

Submit

These guys have better attack patterns than almost any other enemies in the game. They're really fun and tough to fight against.

Submit

i feel dissapointed with these one, an actually cool horseback and ground enemy with some cool skills like a self buff and amazing armor design, i expected to see a more advanced or elite version in later areas, but no, they are just on middle limgrave :c

Submit

how tf do you fight these guys

Submit

I killed one while sparing the horse. Wish I could ride it. Sneak, Sleep Pot, and Stab is very effective.

Submit

One of my favorite enemy designs, too bad we don't actually find Kaiden in game.

Submit

Those are pretty much Mongolian Warriors

Submit

The camp located midway between Agheel Lake North and Murkwater Coast sites of grace hosts 4-5 mercenaries

Submit

Whats their weapon skill/ash of war? Im planning a roleplay thanks :)

Submit

There’s a camp northeast of the “Agheel Lake North” grace with 3 of these guys in it and 3-4 on horseback patrolling the general area. Best place I’ve found to farm this set.

Submit

killed over 100 of these guys and no sword..

Submit

swear I've killed him a hundred times... went all the way to the smoldering church to learn to make silver fowl feet and farmed the camp (one with wolves) and nearby riders a dozen times, still no dismounter.

Submit

drops kaiden set

Submit

this MF won't give me my gatdamn dismounter

Submit

This set is quite fashionable lads, i dare rate it 9/10, definitely gonna sport this drip.

Submit

I really hope we can get his armor.
