Run away, but we're running in circles
Run away, run away, run away

Submit

I found the 'You can just run past most things in this game' tactic worked wonders against the one in Liurnia. 5k runes for putting up with that roll horseshit, thanks but no thanks!

Submit

He’s bulking

Submit

the one in liurnia's divine tower is susceptible to the poison mist cheese, just zip past him up to the tower and up the elevator so he loses aggro, and he'll just stand like a dumb mofo and let you poison him halfway across the bridge

Submit

"Foreskin Noble" haha which one of you edited that?? LMAO

Submit

5k runes for a boss only accessible deep into Ranni's questline, while his Volcano Manor counterpart drops 50k? Yeah

Submit

roll and chase him when he rolls

Submit

I avoid the roll, get him stuck in a circle for like five seconds, he immediately is suddenly upright and doing hilt smashes, then snaps back into the roll.

If we Americans had a tenth of the commitment that this guy has towards rolling, we would have colonized Mars years ago.

Submit

Rolly Polly Olly azz.. it's crazy how sleep pots are the key to this guy. How is anyone supposed to know that though? Is it explained somewhere? (Besides fextra)

Submit

I found the bridge one more doable as a joust

Submit

Whyyyy Noble Presence and infinite roly-poly? It's an otherwise phenomenal boss, why ruin it with that shite?

Submit

Do you have to kill the one at the Divine Tower or can you just run past? Does the tower's door open?

Submit

Is it correct that the one in volcano manor just has 10% more HP than the one in the divine tower of liurnia; yet drops literally more than 1000% of the amount the liurnia godskin drops??!
wtf From; thats some of the most ridiculous balancing i've ever seen in any game

just beat the enemy one and feel really stupid about it

Submit

genuinely one of the most bs hitbox/movement ability bosses ive seen in my entire life

Submit

When the roll attack isn’t total BS these guys are so much fun to fight imo, parrying them is just so satisfying once you get the hang of it.

Submit

I hate how this boss pretty much forces you to get sleep pots

Submit

As an enemy I find him annoying but the one in volcano manor makes me laugh every time with how edgy he tries to look when you first enter the area and he starts slow walking towards.

Submit

when he's stuck rolling into a pillar, you can throw kukris into him. in fact, most of his attacks have a kukri opening. you can stack so much bleed on this SOB

Submit

Sleep pots completely trivialize all the Godskin fights. Sleep, buffs, charged r2, charged r2, stagger, reposte, charged r2 charged r2, stagger them out of phase 2, reposte, clean up, enjoy the runes.

Submit

Bro thinks he's Pontiff Sullyvahn

Submit

Caseoh

Submit

oh look your mom is in elden ring cool

Submit

Plump sort

Submit

The worst of all the infinite stamina bosses.

Submit

Absolutely ZERO downtime between some moves, like I dodge into his tail swipe and get smacked by noble presence. Another BS boss

Submit

Remember Kirby? This is him now. Feel old yet?

Submit

You can roll into the Godskin Wheel attack and you won't actually take any damage.

Submit

I had so much trouble with the one outside the divine tower. Ended up cheesing him by going out of his aggro range and having him teleport back to his spawn location without the aggro, then getting a few hits and repeating. Was fortunately leveled up enough when I fought any of the boss variants.

Submit

Childish enemy.
He can somehow keep his roll attack for 20 seconds if he feels like he won't hit you with it. I was fighting him with a host and he missed me, got stuck in collision, kept going, unstuck and combos the host becuase he refuses to stop the attack until he does damage I guess.

Submit

when he rolls go to the side stairs and hack at him - when I beat him, he tried doing the rolling thing and fell off the cliff

Submit

i feel like being able hide behind a pillar or wall 3 out of the 4 times ive actually discovered this dude somewhere is just intentional design, unfortunately there arent any in the cave fight but its still way too common to feel like just a coincidence, but then if you can just hide behind a pillar or something why even have him use the rolling move if you can render it null most of the time? But hey who am i to question Miyazaki's wisdom in elden ring boss design.

Submit

Absolutely love this chunky fella, incredible OST to pair.

Submit

Trick to dodging the roll is to run in the direction his head is facing while he's rolling. With some practice you can make this guy trace perfect circles while you stand in the direct center.

Submit

How do you dodge the roll in Spiritcaller cave? No pillars in the arena to avoid it and it seems like he catches my rolls with it everytime

Submit

I HATE THIS GUY

Submit

"funny" little glitch
If you stagger him while he's rolling via spells, he'll play his stagger animation, but if you don't riposte him in time, he automatically resumes rolling. Like he doesn't even do the pre animation or anything it just continues where it left off. Was really funny because it killed me during the Duo fight right as I was gonna win. Hilarious even

Submit

If you're mad enough to parry him, bait out overhead pommel blows

Submit

Raptors of the Mist us a great counter to his roll attack and also the Vow of Indomitable but I recommend using the second one since it gives you a bit more room than the mist since you're vulnerable when you are in the jump animation

Submit

He also has a tail swipe move that he sometimes does if you're behind him

Submit

The Duo Looks harder than you think

Submit

Majin Bu! He teams up with Gumby for the Duo fight... lol

Submit

idc what anyone says, his roll move is ****ing bullshit

Submit

Yall, theres is 2 pillar with slightly less gap between them at the front right of the church, if the idiot goes into the rolling attack, you can bait him by letting him roll to you while you go in between the 2 pillars. the gap is too small for the fat-fker but enough for you to go through.

Submit

Wow dude , shoutout to Miyazaki for making Al Weezy into a boss fight !

Submit

this ****er is so annoying to fight especially his stupid rolling attack that lasts an eternity

Submit

worst boss in elden ring. His roll is constant, if you get hit by it sometimes it will go on until you die, you riposte him and he gets right back up in the middle of another move. Just shitty boss design and what sucks is later its a duo fight.

Submit

I’ve had moments where he switches immediately from the rolling animation into the black flame attack without any in-between, then immediately switching back to rolling afterwards, it’s the most jarring thing I’ve seen in the game

Submit

I recommend using the "Bloodhound Claws"

Submit

This arena is dogshit, The chairs and candlestands add nothing to the fight except making you waste time when dodging. At least you can break the chairs, but theres still the pillars. I understand why the pillars have to be there, but a wider arena wouldnt hurt at all.

Submit

The only issue i have with this boss is the instant belly thrust attacks he does, and the rolling attack just looks stupid and doesn't make sense. There is magic in this game, but that still has rules it follows, the mach 5 rolling doesn't.

Submit

I just wanted to know if it’s possible to parry his backhand. Been trying for about 30 minutes now and haven’t gotten it, but can parry most of his attacks fine

Submit

Chonky

Submit

repeating thrust is very satisfying to parry

Submit

Honestly worse than Malenia, after a while you can deal with waterfowl and with knowledge of her stance break immunity you can play accordingly, she's a pace killer but can be dealt with.

This guy? He can spam noble presence back to back with no warning after a single melee attack, why was this added? Do they actually want me to fight him? It's nigh unreactable.

Not to mention his roll lasts way too long, it just looks stupid staring at him for 15 seconds while you can do nothing. And sometimes he just glitches out and goes into his rapid thrust attack and back to rolling when he hits a solid object or something.

Garbage boss.

Submit

Tip for when he rolls: He always rolls soon after phase 2 starts, so make sure to keep notice of that. When he starts to, roll to his right, or when he's rolling his bottom. From there make sure to keep a medium distance and circle at the same speed as him, so hes just rolling around you.

Submit

Nerf hits fat roll already.

Submit

Rather easy when throwing sleep pots at him. Throw one sleep pot, he goes to sleep, go behind him and damage him with a weapon. Repeat.

Submit

Surprisingly easy to parry. Also only takes one parry per stance break.

Submit

“GOTOSKINU NOBORU” squeals Miyazaki after getting instant-killed by the rolling attack, shi tting his pants in the process.

Submit

When I stance broke him while he was rolling, I went over to riposte him, but he JUST STARTED ROLLING AGAIN, NO WARNING, JUST INSTANTLY STARTED ROLLING AGAIN?!?!

Submit

Worst boss in the game. Camera glitches out constantly and he can stab you through the pillars. Did they even play test this boss?

Submit

This boss is terrible, most of the time he rolls the camera glitches out and I can’t see my character. Also his sword goes the pillars. Literally the worst boss in this game.

Submit

This boss is just annoying to fight so if you really don’t want to deal with him just stock up on a bunch of sleep pots/arrows and when he sleeps bring out your highest damaging attacks. Alternatively be crazy like me and try to do the godskin noble skip for 2 hours since the second half of it is ridiculously hard.

Submit

boring boss with 2 unfair attacks . roll doesn't work in half of the arenas you fight him in & noble presence is unreactable

Submit

Honestly the roll lasts way too long. Even if you dodge away and wait behind something, he just keeps doing it for like 10 s
-15 seconds until the ai is literally sure it can't hit you and that it's a waste of time.

Submit

Mage: Physick w/hidden tear+magic shrouding tear, maximized int/magic w gear and talismans, Sleeping pot x2 (to be sure..), Cast Terra Magica then Comet Azur until no more boss. Feels like cheese but then again I am a mage!

Submit

Honestly, piss poor boss design. Nobody who appreciates the masterpiece design of bosses from Sekiro, DS3, and BB could argue with this fact lol

Submit

I think the Godskin apostle is fine as long as you don’t Afro him but the noble could use some work

Submit

The roll could’ve easily been another goofy ash of war.

Submit

If you put him to sleep during hit roll out he'll proceed with it, without wind up mind you, once he awakens, even if you hit him with a Critical Attack.

Submit

When he rolls at you, roll THROUGH him. As long as you aren't fat-rolling, you should clear his hitbox (also works on Mohgwyn Albinaurics). After that, he tries to turn around to find you - easily avoided by staying in the middle of his circle.

Submit

i like how the best tip is just cheese the **** out of the fight cause it sucks ass

Submit

Literally me

Submit

Dude just stabbed me through a pillar. Wtf. I saw his thing go through the pillar.

Submit

Has anyone seen the bug where he will start the rolling then do a stab combo and immediately be in the rolling animation again? Killed most of my runs.

Submit

When the Godskin Noble begins his wheel roll at you, roll in a direction going away from his head; the roll will go in a motion such that you are the origin of the circle he traces, if that makes sense. You can maneuver around this so that he'll just continue to roll around you and wear himself out, giving you time to heal / refill mana, select throwables etc.

Submit

for the volcano manor one, if you manage to get him between the side wall during his spin he can be attacked through it making the fight wayyy easier

Submit

I love this game and i love FromSoft, but this fight is just sooooo bad. So when he starts the rolling attack he has a weird bug in his code where if you arent the host he will glitch in and out of the animation until he locks onto the host and then does his roll again and this sh*t is soooo glitchy. Lol wtf

Submit

Liurnia Tower Bridge cheese:

Ride your horse fast past him all the way to the other side of the bridge and he'll de-aggro and turn away from you to watch in the direction of the site of grace. Carefully approach him from behind and you can get close enough to cast poison mist without aggro. Back off + wait, approach + poison. Repeat as necessary

Submit

If you have issues with him, try focusing on rolling away from his attacks and into him back in melee range instead of to the sides. He has really good tracking to roll catch you mid roll, but he also has surprisingly mediocre direct range. The only problem is the multi-stab, but you can also roll into it and evade it that way, he will whiff the rest of his stabs. Though the roly poly and 0 frame belly thrust just suck, sorry.

Submit

Got him stuck against a pillar and wailed on him with my winged scythe until bleed procced

Submit

I would recommend parrying. Why trying to guess whether he will follow-up when you can shut his combo right at start...

Submit

4 lance ash of war is perfect aganist him. two casts and boom, he can be critical hit

Submit

I can't believe the made the fat one Faster than the skinny one. Absolute nonsensical.

Submit

Tubby?... NOBODY CALLS ME TUBBY!! *proceeds to enter dough-wheel mode and rolls you into paste*

Submit

You're goin' down, tubby!

Submit

Melee users salty cause they actually gotta get in and fight. Sorcery makes this boss a joke lmao

Submit

I gave this fat **** poison, scarlet rot, frostbite and bleeding.
I was done. Absolutely 200% done.

Submit

Read his weaknesses...

Gotta get yourself a Uchigatana with Lightning-Lightning Slash.

or you can just waste sleep pots on him like everyon else.

Submit

You can roll into him when he starts spinning. It works everytime, I am not sure why it's not mentioned as an alternative to running around him

Submit

At the Temple, he gave me 45,000 runes WITH the scarab. Did they lower his reward after 1.07?

Submit

This game really made me curious how a sword with technically no blade but a pointy edge can hurt anyone by slashing...

Submit

After many tries, finally defeated this one by summoning a group Ash and running for the altar when he puffs up to roll. Used blood, frost and sleep pots

Submit

You can easily avoid the Blubber Roll™ by sprinting after him as he rolls. Sing “ring around the rosie” for added effect.

You can easily avoid the patented Blubber Roll™ by sprinting after him as he rolls. Sing “ring around the rosie” for added effect.

Submit

This mf single handedly ruined the whole Caria tower experience. Who tf thought that it would be a good idea to add this guy?

Submit

When the host dies by the Godskin Noble rolling him into a wall for 10 seconds.

Submit

I've just had a taste of the lesser fat-boy on the bridge before the divine tower of Liurnia on my first NG+ and it wasn't fun. There is no reliable way to not get hit again and again when te fat f**ker starts rolling around. But he will only go so far towards the west end of the bridge near the study hall use bleed arrows and dodge the fire ball and you'll be golden.
