Is Black Knife Tiche still the best Spirit in the Addon?

Yeah call me noob, but im using him every fight.. And it feels so good that i slay literally every boss first try, from lion, over rennala, to the dark knight in the dungeon, to the hippo in the castle. Always first try!

Hes just perfect, he only dies like a few seconds before the boss is dead and i just have to finish it.

I honestly dont feel bad for it.. Why? Cause i finished Dark Souls 1-3 without ANY help, played Dark Souls 1 and 3 twice and a half. In Elden Ring i mostly didnt use Spirits. Played older DS 1-3 DLCs without Help. If you count it together and count older dlcs as one thats around 7 playtroughs i played without help. Also a bit of Sekiro but i didnt play it that much, cause im not the biggest fan of japanese history (im not a weeb)...

Im simply done.. I want to feel overpowered! And i think i deserve if after the main game! And i want the next souls game to change EVERYTHING cause its getting boring... Finally give us a story, and not the fake BS youtubers are making up. Give us a good story! Give us quests with questmarkers cause NO QUEST IN ANY SOULS TITLE EVER MADE SENSE TO ME. Its not like im not thankfull! I THANK THEM SO MUCH FOR CREATING ONE OF MY FAVORITE VIDEO GAME SERIES OF ALL TIME! Im dissing nobody.. Im just saying.. We need a complete remake! Cause its getting the same and the same and the same again..

Things need to change.. Bosses need to change so they all new.. Trying Weapon skills need to change to make it more flexible.. Areas need to change so that every area is a shock again like in DS1.. And a lot of little details also..

So thats the reason im just feeling good playing my overpowered elden ring STR/INT char with his ruin great sword +10, the freakin COMET AZUR FIRING MA LAZER and my Tiche +10.

To gimme another dark souls title where i really try hard developers finally need to change a lot of things. But i dont want this thread being to long... :D WOOPSIE TOO LATE!

Also lets not ignore that the bosses at least attack me 5 times every fight for a while, its not like they totaly ignore me just because of Tiche and im pretty sure the last bosses will be hard for me too, even with all that stuff.

AND YES IM EXPLAINING MYSELF, not cause im scared to be called noob, but i wanna know how many other people think like that!? Dont we deserve after 200 souls games to finally be overpowered? Dont we deserve something new? Not always the same? And yeah i also leveld up to Level 250 with only one playtrough of elden ring. JUST CAUSE I CAN AND I WANTED THE PERFECT CHAR!

But okay: Simple Question: Is there a better spirit in elden ring DLC?! Dont get me an example of original elden ring please.. i will only use tiche.. maybe in very few instances ill use another one, but hes by far the best. Of course i get that it matters which boss it is, but generally speaking!? "Black Knight Commanders Andreas" seems strong, especially cause he could survive maybe longer with his shield, but i kinda doubt that hes better..

I probably will keep playing with Tiche anyways cause the game is already way to easy..

YES THIS THREAD IS WAYYYY TO LONG!

SO JUST ONE ANSWER: IS THERE BETTER SPIRIT IN THE ADDON (!) THAN TICHI-BOY? THANKS BYE AND GAWD FORGIVE MY SINS OF WRITING TOO MUCH CAUSE OF STUFF IN MY BLOOD THAT SHOULDNT BE THERE HEHEHHE

Don't you mean Black Knife Tiche?

Againsts most bosses, yes, but only because of destined death (hint hint, the player can do this as well).

Against regular enemies, highly depends on what you're fighting and how open it is. Against many "heavy" opponents typically other spirit ashes are better. For example, Tiche gets destroyed by revenants, but Omenkiller Rollo demolishes them.

There is no "best" spirit ash besides mimic (and that depends on the player). If you want some quick comparisons, I made 2 guides for that, hopefully it helps: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2802940079

Horned Warrior, Black Knight Andreas, and the Golem are three powerful ones.

Every time I use Black Knife, she dies in 4-5 hits from the boss. Omenkiller Rollo and Black Flame Monk are usually better

eh yeah was obviously speaking about black KNIFE tiche (fixed it! got it mixed up with black KNIGHT andreas) im sorry

thanks!

i already wrote that it of course matters what kind of boss it is, so i definitely know that ;)

but ill watch your videos later!

I'm pretty sure Tiche is female. Apparently, all the black knife assassins were females.
Many people seem to find the "Jolan & Anna" summon quite effective.

really? thats why i thought im not that noob, cause i will always try to get them bossses to attack me (ITS STILL NOOB TO USE SPIRITS IN THE FIRST PLACE! I KNOW THAT VERY WELL!). skill INT and then do the laser attack (comet azur). they will come to you every time, roll around a bit and if you do it again and again (or with my STR Ruin Greatsword Special attack, that shoots damage in a very long area infront of it).

if i play like that tiche only dies in the end. then its easy to me to just end the boss with my ruin greatsword special attack or just roll a bit and do normal attacks

but of course you right with some enemies... for example hes totaly usesless against the furnaces.

i can definitely say that the bosses attack me 50% of the time but i rarely take damage. then he will be by your side fo a long time.

its definitely different with the really hard bosses tho. also with the more "gimmicky" bosses

the reason im using him is cause i read a lot of ranks on the internet of the best spirits. they really tried all of it and he was constantly on the top.

you right i think. its a female . heard about it but kinda forgot it.

but thanks for the infos about the new addon spirits from everyone! i kinda already thought andreas could be kinda good. we will see..

theres a golem-spirit? :O please dont spoil me but that sounds AWESOME!

I know how to bounce aggro from myself to a summon and back on a boss. She just tends to take hits instead of dodging and ends up dying. Most of the time getting hit by an attack that was aimed at me but she got caught with the backswing. Dung Eater also gets himself killed early in the fight when I have tried him. I've had good luck with Rollo, Black Flame Monk, and the Black Knight. I really only use them to distract the boss long enough for me to drink a potion but they are so squishy.

yeah i believe you. im not saying you suck.

and yeah it depends on the bosses

but did you really level him up to +10?

whatever it is.. rollo is one of the better spirits too.. its a known fact. i also used him a fair amount of time.

[pza]

im always asking myself about two types of spirits. If it makes sense to use them, when tiche sucks against one boss:

- basically bow-spirits like "REDMANE KNIGHT OGHA"

- and the famous "STORMHAWK DEENH"

I got them both at +9 but i always ignore them cause i dont wanna waste my Level Up for them. But arent these 2 Spirits that could be really good against certain special bosses? Cause of the distant arrow-attacks and the flying effect?

i forgot were people rated them in theire lists, im just interested if you guys had any experiences with them

[Chaos]

Nah, the best one is always the mimic...if your build ain't trash that's it.
