Yo, is Viper like the end game boss or what.

[Deathwing1306]

They really bringing whole 2 HP bar fight with terrible timings this early? I though Blade Phantom was the "welcome to the game" boss, he was great, this one is a bit disappointing lol.

it also doesnt help that spirit of advocacy is complete trash against him.

Spirit of Advocacy is the summon near the entrance?

I don't use those so I don't know lol.

You have to own PS4 or PS5 in order to play the game though.

Most people who do not own PS4 or PS5, do not care if it's 30fps or 60fps or 120fps, we just want to play the game so this emulator is basically dead for PC players lol.

Nah, can play it right now for free if you have the hardware for it.

I feel like I have tried doing something like that, but couldn't find the Bloodborne files on the internet. He says in the video that you either copy the files from the game you own or pirate it on the internet, but I have no idea where to get those files from and I am not really into getting viruses in my PC lol.

They say that because it's illegal to pirate PS4 games as it's still current and having content released for it.

I can't help you find the pkg, but it's out there. Just do some homework before you download anything to avoid viruses/malware.

i struggled to get past his first phase with greatsword, i switch to spear and kill him with all 4 of my heals remaining, spear is goated and made me feel like a badass

Godfrey is a cool fight.

Bloodborne will never come to PC, it's a Sony owned product (not owed by From) and it's just too dated in terms of performance with 30fps at best.

Peoples played Quake 2 on PSX in 25fps and lived (PAL). 30 FPS is survivable. Bloodborne would need rebalance for 60fps as various parries and other defensive stuff would be too good with 60fps. Bloodborne 2 is required.

I don't even have to read all of it and I already know that your opinion really is not that valuable because you didn't try it.

I have played more than enough Elden Ring, I even beat everything in the DLC within 30 minutes (including Messmer, he actually fell on 2nd try) and you can't really compare those games to this one, in ER your main dodge is to roll, in this game, you pretty much have to deflect everything because I feel like that it helps out more during the fight.

This game is more comparable to Lies of P, rather than FromSoft games imo.

"This game is comparable to lies of p rather than Fromsoftware games" ..From which two games lies of p is created and got ideas then Sekiro and Bloodborne which are fromsoftware games ,lies of p is copy pasted Sekiro .If you can beat Sekiro you can beat viper with eyes closed..

We get it, you love FromSoft.

I'll get it.

I honestly don't think the boss is the issue. It's the fact that we only have 4 incomplete heals for a 2 health bar fight.

Meaning you basically need to perfect guard 90% of the fight. I feel like I'm almost expected to basically perfect run/no hit the boss.

well if they gave more health "pots" it would be too easy, I say we need less perfect runs is where it's at!

I get I just said if you played previous souls games guy won't be a problem.My main disappointment from game it's that bosses are forgettable..Needs better build up for them ,you know when you ask someone about Radahn,Margit,Gael, Abyss watchers people instantly know ,also after I spend 15k hours playing dota2 Viper name is just silly to me hahah

dawg, elden ring is filled to the brim with filler content, you can't expect every single boss to be radahn-level of design when elden ring itself is not held to that standard

need i remind you that the final boss is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ slime that shoots lasers? give me a break.

viper is pretty easy, brink guarding his attacks is no trouble at all and you can even parry most of his attacks leaving him open for some big damage
(just spam attacks until your stamina is depleted and then spam spirit skills since those dont use up stamina, best case you can even finish your combo with a brutal attack and gain full stamina again so you can continue attacking)
second phase is actually easier since his attacks become slower and more predictable.
managed to beat him without taking damage a few times now (my bf watches me play this game so each time i wanna play but he isnt there I just go back to kill old bosses so he doesnt miss anything new xD)

the first time took me about 30mins
-70% just memorizing his moveset while dying to him lol
-20% figuring out the parry timing for each attack while talking to my bf about the boss being an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ahaha
-10% to actually beat him with 2 health potions left over (no consumables, no dlc armor)

once you know his moveset the fight will be a walk in the park (for any boss really)
also dont forget to parry, it is OP just like in any soulslike (stagger + huge stamina drain)
another also: if you parry a lot, you will exhaust the boss a lot and there is a skill that regenerates hp each time you do a brutal attack (getting an average of 4-6 staggers in those 2 phases means you regenerate about the same or more amount of health that a healing flask would restore just by beating his ass)

[tewi]

just beat viper and holy crap, what an amazing fight. it took something around 15 attempts, and i beat him the second time i made it to the 2nd phase. almost all deflecting, no npc summon, spear weapon (no preorder/deluxe gear either)

his 1st phase feels perfect, although perhaps a bit of hp bloat, but once i really learned his openings to activate my spear passives (moonlight or whatever) his health started melting away a lot faster. my biggest issue with the 2nd phase is (with maxed graphic settings) there's so many effects and particles flying around that it's hard to see what he's doing sometimes, although it felt incredibly epic so maybe it's worth it

great boss, 9/10

"this game is so easy, you can beat it without getting hit" your logic checks out for your profile
