A Redditor known as TheGreatZephyrical shared a clip of them taking onSir Gideon Ofnir The All-Knowing inElden Ring. The video shows the player enter the boss arena with an ally and immediately cast the spell Frenzy Burst against the enemy, which does reasonable damage. TheGreatZephyrical then casts the spell again, and automatically kills Gideon with it. While many agree that the encounter is considered an easy one, the amount of damage that was done with a shot of Frenzy Burst was much higher than it should have been.
Some users questioned whether the clip TheGreatZephyrical uploaded actually showed a bug due to the low difficulty of theElden Ringboss, but the player states that they have used the spell on Gideon before and that it didn’t do that much damage. One commenter jokes that the amount of knowledge that Gideon possesses caused his head to explode from the madness that Frenzy Burst causes. One user says that they could be told that Gideon was two-shotted with a piece of celery and would still believe it to not be a bug.
While TheGreatZephyrical’s encounter with a bugged adversary made it easier for them, another player was not so lucky. A gamer going by the name Penchkeg died to anElden Ringenemy that glitched out. The clip that the player uploaded shows them prepare for a battle with multiple phases by applying a number of buffs. After they get the foe to change into its second phase, the enemy becomes stuck to a wall where it seems to fall endlessly. Penchkeg approaches the adversary slowly at first while cautiously observing it from afar and then heads toward their opponent, becoming stuck on the wall behind it while their health slowly drains. Eventually the player dies, the victim of a terrible bug. It is an unfortunate event which Penchkeg considers to be one of the dumbest deaths in a FromSoftware game.
Elden Ringis available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
