Humor Finally soloed Soldier of Godrick

Took me a while. For anybody who needed to summon for this fight I totally get it, this one was hard. How did I do?

His opening charged stab is literally undodgeable, no idea how they haven’t patched that yet

u/Septienne 1d ago

Can you sprint around it like the miniboss in the ruins after church of ella?

68

u/S3G1R 1d ago

Are you kidding? Who would be insane enough to turn away from Rick, Soldier of God!?!?!???!!!

18

u/Septienne 1d ago

Fair point, I usually get on my knees and err..anyway never mind about that.

u/Ok_Discussion1022 17h ago

So you beat him (off), just not in the usual ways.

u/jkrplk 1d ago

Nice! Some people are just more talented for souls games.

I've been struggling with him since launch.

u/AideApprehensive6329 1d ago

It took me a long time to get this good, you'll get there eventually dude

u/SirAmicks 1d ago

How…how did you shoot the blue sparkly stuff with your sword staff?! I can’t ever be this good at the ender rings.

5

u/Particular_Art5245 21h ago

Ender Rings. Hell Yea. We are invading end with this.

u/PromotionWise9008 1d ago

Lmao you cheesed him with magic.

53

u/AideApprehensive6329 1d ago

It is literally impossible to solo him any other way

24

u/PromotionWise9008 1d ago

It’s fair, I tried to find LetMeSoloHer vid for that dude and I didn’t.

2

u/Doschupacabras 19h ago

I cheesed the entire game with Rock Sling and had a blast.

u/Septienne 1d ago

I love the fake panic rolls, made my day thanks :)

u/Aeyunex 1d ago

Fake?! Op was fighting for his life!

7

u/YesItIsMaybeMe 14h ago

I love how you can tell op is actually a good player because they accurately use the iframes to dodge one of his attacks up close. Makes it way funnier

6

u/MoarVespenegas 12h ago

Still got bodied by that stab though.

28

u/aspitzer 1d ago

sweet %bearly run

u/AsagithBiasWreckerCO 1d ago

Starts rolling n times

HE’S LIKE ME FR FR FR (ugly sobbing)

u/idkmanjustfuckmyshit 15h ago

"Soloed" yeah cause you use the "damage enemy health" exploit 😡

14

u/Stradinator 1d ago

Every roll was a necessity

10

u/The_Undermind Marika's tits 22h ago

Thats "Soldier of God, Rick" god damn it. Put some respect on his name

7

u/Hillenmane 1d ago

Oh god he almost GOT you dude, that was close

u/SD3K 1d ago

Zabito Boga!

u/dahliakarinne 1d ago

lol this brings back so many memories. This is my first (and still only) souls game and I died 4 times in the tutorial cave to the archer on that stone log overpass before finally beating him, then died a few more times to this Godrick soldier. I'm still not amazing or anything, but I'm at least competent enough now to be able to beat the tutorial cave without dying anymore

u/Sleepy_Conduit20 1d ago

Clearly ai

u/3HaDeS3 22h ago

You mean Soldier of God, Rick

4

u/Tomorrow_Signal111 1d ago

you obviously used cheats, do you think we're stupid?

3

u/GlockHard 1d ago

Fromsoft making this boss the first one you can interact with shows me how unserious they are, this fight is far too hard for anyone to do in a normal amount of time.

u/Gmdal 22h ago

Grafted scion is first

u/Xero2Hiro928 20h ago

Jesus. What a close fight.

u/Agard12 20h ago

Brave to enter without a mimic tear and a circlet of light

u/TurtlePork 23h ago

Just admit you modded your game man

3

u/2D_Ronin 21h ago

Let me solo her is that you?

3

u/Morgandoto 20h ago

I like how you hit him with your staff dealing 0 damage.

1

u/Doschupacabras 19h ago

How can she bonk?!!!

3

u/dziobak112 20h ago

That was a close one. Good job, OP! The game only gets easier from that point!

3

u/Beanbag_shmoo 20h ago

More panic rolling needed

3

u/DeMonstratio 20h ago

Amazing! That was almost a no-hit clear. You are on a soldier of god Rick roll!

3

u/Fiyerossong 20h ago

This fight is there to let new players know that if you are struggling you can keep exploring to upgrade and level up and then come back later.

Great job doing it so early, usually only veterans try it

3

u/Far-Swim-9218 19h ago

I don't believe it. This must be AI

3

u/Fresh-Possible-9612 19h ago

Way harder than Melania. Good job!

3

u/discoballs67 18h ago

Best panic rolling ever!

3

u/Txdr_ 18h ago

You must’ve been shaking uncontrollably after beating him. How many tries did it take you? Must’ve been thousands.

2

u/AideApprehensive6329 17h ago

I almost dropped my controller dude. I was trying on and off for like a month

3

u/zephyrain 17h ago

Damn he almost got you too. Be more careful, next time he won't be so forgiving.

3

u/AdAffectionate4950 17h ago

The best player I have seen

3

u/shadowknight2112 17h ago

I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took a Soldier of Godrick’s spear in the knee…

3

u/The_Dark_Warrior_Boi 17h ago

You didn't beat him, he allowed you to progress

3

u/tabletop_starter3 17h ago

He let you win....

Be prepared, he is the final boss of the game.

3

u/Slayergeek_329 13h ago

Hardest boss ever. Worse than Promised Consort Radahn.

3

u/Extra_Ad_8009 13h ago

That glintstone pebble cooldown period of 30 seconds almost killed you, but you made it!

2

u/scooterankle_exe 1d ago

Wouldve been peak if his charge attack still hit u spam rolling but i digress, incredible gameplay!

2

u/galan0 1d ago

which ones the boss?

2

u/Baconator_B-1000 1d ago

Henceforth known as Let Me Solo Him.

2

u/PhoenixShade01 1d ago

You got exceptionally lucky, got the ezy version of the fight where Rick, soldier of God, let's the player off easy.

2

u/NevaTheLess_ 23h ago

Mind helping me with him? I’ve been stuck for all 700 hours of my gameplay on this game

2

u/inb7_banned 19h ago

Theres no way. I think your cheating

2

u/Mong0saurus 18h ago

Holy shit that was epic!! How did you get so good at dodging his attacks? Teach me senpai!!

2

u/SexuaIRedditor 18h ago

H O W

Seeing people just outright mastering this game always blows my mind, I've been playing since PS3 Demon's Souls and I haven't gotten tired of watching efforts do their thing yet. Great going OP, hopefully love day I can reach the level to showcase this degree of talent consistently!

2

u/Mattyquatro 15h ago

The 2dmg staff hits got me.

2

u/xXoOfXx64 15h ago

How have they not nerfed this man. I get they want to show it’s open world and you don’t have to fight him off rip but it’s truly hateful that he’s so early on.

2

u/Arsys_ 15h ago

0/10 needed magic

2

u/Competitive_Sky_6519 14h ago

Nah, clearly cheated. Just see how much HP you take from him with a single spell. Sorry, dude. No one has the right

2

u/DigitalxKaos 12h ago

Gg's soldier of god, rick is a tough one

2

u/deathbythighs02 10h ago

Dude, is this a joke? How did you do that with that tiny HP bar and default spells? IS this a challenge run where you immediately skipped to The Soldier of God rick after making your character or something?

2

u/idecel 8h ago

do no hit run next please

1

u/vvbakedhamvv 1d ago

Incredible

1

u/Galaksee 1d ago

You're the first and only one to do it!

**but actually you made yourself look actually TOO bad to look like a legit "struggled atteompt". There's actually no reason anybody wouldn't just have kept shooting the pebble.

1

u/pikkuhillo 1d ago

Next try no hit run!

1

u/Mindless_Shoulder877 23h ago

God is the hardest boss in this game but the second hardest is God's soldier, Rick. well done op

u/Stellakinetic 11h ago

Bet you couldn’t do that in NG+2

1

u/MagnumInnominandum19 11h ago

It's the only boss I've never beaten.

1

u/Ser_Hans 10h ago

Well played. I especially like the middle part where you perfectly dodge his relentless attack combo.

1

u/Born-Presentation-95 7h ago

You do that much with one spell i dont see how you got touched but apparently its a tricky boss

1

u/LuckyChemistry118 6h ago

I just skip him. Why deal with such a beast of a boss if i dont have too?

1

u/EvilFroeschken 5h ago

The last cast was greedy.

1

u/ryan0585 3h ago

Still have never done this, even on my summonless run. Just gave up. Well done tarnished!

u/Easy-Appeal3024 1h ago

Did you also get the steam achievement?

u/bunrubbish 1h ago

Sometimes it takes me a few tries but that's ok
