Can ANY Boss Survive Igon The Drake Warrior? - Elden Ring Shadow Of The Erdtree DLC
Ойындар
In this elden ring video I'm testing if igon the drake warrior can survive any of the strongest dragon bosses in elden ring.
To test this I'm putting igon from the shadow of the erdtree DLC against every dragon in the game, and I'm gonna give him one new draconic skill each time he manages to defeat one of the dragons.

Speaking of Ancient Dragons, you’re kinda missing 2 guys (Ancient Dragon Man & Florissax) Fortissax managed to score a W for once, wasn’t really surprised with how his battle with Senessax turned out and Placi clutched it once again.

Igon's ai seemed to have trouble at several points yep, definitely had moments of "...Bow? Bow. ....Bow...? Bow--" "CURSE YOU DRAGON--" and he resets to normal.
I've noticed that the AI used for human sized NPCs aren't working all the great and this video highlights it. Numerous times in this video, Igon just stood there without moving. This has happened with many of my summons in the game too. They have an obvious target, but don't go for an attack or sometimes bring out their weapon, then just put it back away.

I have some requests: Can the most powerful tarnished duo beat DLCs bosses. Bernhal and Vyke vs DLC bosses (make them have all scadutree blessings). Puppet summons +10 vs main game bosses and DLC bosses. Base game npcs vs DLC npcs. Can the DLC bosses survive the lvl 713 starter class gank lol (no scadutree blessings). DLC bosses vs Ranni's faction. Iji, Blaidd (strongest variation), and add Seluvis as well with some Carian spells (like the ones Preceptor Miriam has) and Moongrum (because Renalla would definitely send him to back Ranni up lol) Can the DLC survive the assassins? Alecto and all her assassims vs DLC bosses (add Baleful shadow to back them up)
