I dont know why im having so much trouble with this boss... this might be the hardest boss in this game for me. Maybe it's just because of his diverse moveset and that he's great at punishing the gready. That's something I severely struggle with... Your guide has given me a lot of wisdom towards this fight. I hope it's enough to beat him because I want to beat this damn game. I love this game, and I want to complete that love by beating it. This is personal Soul of Cinder! 😠 lol
great video, you don't plan on making a guide for bosses in elden ring like you did in ds3? those videos are literally the reason I master the boss, kinda hope you make it for some elden ring bosses too tho not many people explain every moveset like the way you did.
I've highly considered it, im still just not sure if i'll upload them in this channel or in another channel dedicated to guides and other hitless stuff. Im sort of trying to shift this account to more entertaining videos and story telling, so we'll see.
@@heyblasty8614 good idea tbh, especially since the dlc is still fresh and there are very few videos that really explain them in depth. Lmk about the update, best of luck!! ^^
Best thing I can recommend is just getting the hang of parrying. It's genuinely a hard boss if you try it without parrying, he attacks pretty quickly so dodging and getting in hits when he leaves (short) openings for you to attack is really tricky (though very much possible as can be seen in this video). If you don't immediately take advantage of these openings, he'll continue to spam attacks without you getting any hits in. However if you manage to get parrying right this is honestly one of the easiest bosses in the game, 3-5 parries should kill him and even on his second phase it's very much possible to kill him before the clone shows up. I beat him today for the first time after an hour or so just because I didn't have the confidence to try and parry his attacks at first, but once I did it was a piece of cake.
Awesome video....Except my version of Midir is a goddam spastic chihuahua that never stops moving and i get one hit on him every time. Constantly healing and getting nowhere. On the verge of just saying screw it. I wonder why is it everyone of these Tutorial type videos has a way more mellower version of bosses than I am dealing with.
@@user-ye5gl5hp8f I suggest you check my pinned comment. I provide 5 fights with different weapons covering different attack speeds and range so you can have a reference on how to properly apply what I show on the guide. Also there’s a video showcasing all the moves so you can familiarize yourself with the boss.
DUDE! you have no idea how much this helped me. After this vid i beat him first try with Yhorm's Machete. Went from absolutely hating the boss fight to loving it in a 10 minutes span haha, thanks!
Genuinely didn’t help at all, you literally didnt show how those simple moves are executed. Kinda pointless video unless you’re going for the hard moves.
Congratulations man, no hit kill!!! I am currently figting him and dont have the confidance to casualy run around him. I allways seem to panic roll. Great job.👍
@@heyblasty8614 I have just beaten him, but the problem is I don't know where to go now. I did give his soul to the painter in the Ariandel church. I don't know how to get to Midir. I would appreciate if you could give me a tip??
@@ivanvoloder8114 If you remember, there''s an elevator which is a shortcut between the bonfire and the halflight, spear of the chuch boss fight. going up or down that elevator lies a path around halfway, when you go in just smack on of the statues on the right wall and it will lead you to midir
I believe he is the most complex boss in any fromsoft game. He has 4 fighting styles, soulmass persist even after changing styles plus an entire new move set on second phase
It doesnt have to be like that, let me help you. You can either send me a recording of your fight or we can talk in discord and i can help you understand the fight better.
I'm taking back my 👍You are the best player ever or you are playing this on very easy. The fighting sequence is completely different when I play it. Not hating just maybe let everyone know the details of your game.
Grandmaster difficulty, I let her approach me instead of playing aggressive. This is in my pinned comment: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g-LHe_apFws.htmlsi=HktFBpkIoQaEh7mA Full, unedited damageless fight where I explain it as I’m fighting her on the same difficulty (GM). Fight starts at min. 4
Finally beat Midir thanks to this guide. Took me more than 3 hours yesterday but all I could do is get her to around 40% health. Took me about 2 hours this time practicing your strategy.
NGL: it's the droid that is messing with me. Droid + infinite sword throws = can't close the gap in any way xD And with how bad the lock on is throwing the droid (which is the easy way to get rid of it) becomes really tricky 🤣
Pull the droid and make BD hack it, just like how I do it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g-LHe_apFws.htmlsi=gWkoggm51nzIEZrt&t=320 (this is also the extended tutorial if you wanna watch it, fight starts in min 4, before that i just talk about the strat)
@@SyntheticFuture Your welcome friend. If you still have trouble, you can always send me a recording of the fight and i could see how i can help you improve.
@@heyblasty8614 Got past the fight :D It was a matter of keeping distance in the first part (and just dodging the attacks and picking retaliation moments) and making sure I was close enough in the second part so she wouldn't go into a "sword throwing loop". Thanks for the excellent tips 😄
Im glad it was useful to you. I think this is probably my favorite guide because of how i structured it so im glad it gets a good reception from you guys.
god i HATE this fight, and so far its the only one where i just feel like shit the whole time. i dont feel like im learning, or that im dying because im doing something wrong. it just feels like the game hates me, making the fight annoying and just unfun
the one move where she can just drain all of your force and half of your hp is insane, feels like theres nothing to do against it i love dodging and she just teleports to me. a really fun and fair move
@@bingus892 this is an extended tutorial, this might help you with understand the approach, the fight is in Grandmaster difficulty: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g-LHe_apFws.htmlsi=DOq1NRBc4VF4Rb6W Go to min 4 if you want to see the fight
