elder hu is the worst boss

[obama]

ok random patterns but why the ♥♥♥♥ are they so fast
also his wave of drums attack is broken, the drums make hit sound when they spawn which is REALLY ♥♥♥♥ing confusing
3 lines of drums is pretty much a guranteed hit
how am i supposed to keep dodging these 0.0000000001 second timing attacks with insane precision which are random while also dealing damage
again it wouldnt be so bad if the sound wasnt broken

If you wait until you have the Shade Cloak, he's much easier.

[obama]

shadow cloak sounds like entire game will be easy mode

[Vellutia]

the first time I beat him was without shade cloack and I think he was pretty easy to deal with. Just don't rush him with your nail.

maybe you got lucky

I found it best to stay as close to him as possible and take advantage of the fact that after the attack where the rings close in from the edges of the room to the center that he always spawns on the left.

doesnt help he has too much health and random attack hits me pretty much all the time
the fact that hes randomly floating and does contact damage doesnt help either

You don't ever need to jump during hi fight tho.

I didn't find him that hard. I focus on the nearest gap in his attacks rather than my character, and move towards them. It's as simple as looking where you want to go.
If you can focus on staying alive, you'll win.

I remember him being quite fun and not too difficult. I always have trouble with attacks you have to 'duck under' like that one he has, but once you get the timing down it's fine (get right next to where one of the drums lands and dash out right after it hits). For the other attack you have to watch the drums more than the player character. Yeah, you can be unlucky and have 3 in a row directly above you, but then you should be able to dash out.

The good thing is to focus on his attack while stil sticking close to him. Best thing to use is dash when you're under the wider attacks. I did it in a matter of 30-40 seconds give or take with a channeled nail and following charms: Mark of Pride, Sprint Master.
I didn't really use any other "useful" charms that added strength to the nail, but if you don't have an upgraded nail then use what you can in terms of charms. He was a darn ♥♥♥♥♥ to fight in the beginning tho

[HoboBobulus]

Charms of note that I used were the mark of pride, baldur shell, and grubsong. I found that I always had more than enough soul and the safety of the baldur shell to beat him through attrition.
