Such cool lore squandered by a disappointment of a boss.

Something that isn't mentioned many places is that there are differences between the left and right side, and the order in which you kill the two roots changes the rest of the fight significantly. If you go left first then getting the root on the right is harder, same for the left one if you kill the right one first. Just something to keep in mind for people going through this ordeal for the first time.

A lot of people say BoC is a boring or **** fight. Counterpoint: any boss fight is significantly improved with the right music, and Surfin' USA made BoC way better

Is this possible to make this Boss without shield? I complete almost all souls games (no sekiro elden ring and demon souls) without shield and i dont wanna use it. I died like 20times already

i now realised it has that fire with a look of elden rings frienzied flame. cool!

Destroyed left root. Died. Attempted to destroy right root multiple times. Died a lot. Finally did it. Died several more times trying to get the floor to cave in the center. Finally got naked, slid down, and just ran for it -- got to the bug on the first try.

This is definitely, absolutely, without a question, an enemy. I dare say it's very freaking.

Still the most ridiculous boss fight in perhaps the entire series.

Just forget about your build, wear full Havel and a big shield. Boring.

What I really don't understand is why the devs didn't even bother to fix this boss in the massive 1.05 and 1.06 patches

Elden Ringers may have Fire Giant, Godskin Duo, Elden Beast, but their pain is incomparable to this entire area and this bossfight.
