13 EASIEST Ways To Kill Bosses In Elden Ring
3. Blow Bubbles On Placidusax (No, Really)
The Envoy Longhorn is one of the most powerful weapons in the game, despite being one of the silliest. Blowing bubbles out of this weapon comes with an annoying and hilarious horn noise, so every use of this weapon's special skill will come with a minimum sense of humour threshold.
What most don't realise about this weapon, however, is that it's one of the most poise-breaking weapons in the game, and is extremely effective against gigantic bosses.
Using the Longhorn against special boss Placidusax makes his fight surprisingly easy. The weapon deals holy damage, so holy damage buffs, as well as general damage buffs like Golden Vow, will be very helpful. Use of the Holy Tear, as well as Strength and Dexterity Tears in the Physick, will also be extremely useful.
All you have to do is buff at the beginning of the fight (while Placidusax is still asleep), then sprint to his tail to avoid his fire and lightning. Then, taking position at his behind, blow the bubble horn. A couple of blows will break his poise, and while he's stunned, you can keep blowing the horn.
Most of the bubbles will connect because of his size, and kill him quickly.
