However, it is quite safe to say that Demi-Human Swordmaster Onze is not one of them.
In colorful words, Swordmaster Onze has more in common with a mosquito than an Elden Ring boss.
We hope you like dragons in Elden Ring because the DLC comes packed with some terrifying Ghostflame Dragons.
He pokes you, then disappears just as you turn to swat him.
TheStonebarb Cracked Tearto increase poise damage.
TheSpelldrake Talismanto reduce his magic damage.
Any weapon with a medium-fast or higher attack speed.
If you attack while this is active, he will Parry and then attempt to Riposte.
2.The Jump Attack (Magic)- indicated by Swordmaster Onze jumping high above you with a blue glow.
If you fail to dodge, the attack can deal extreme amounts of damage.
Can chain easily into other moves or multiples of this attack from left to right.
It also appears with a spinning variation.
Strike before the move is completed to stagger or roll forward.
Sword Thrust
Swordmaster Onze thrusts their sword forward in a quick jab.
Almost always followed by a Bloodhound Step and another attack.
Roll to the left or right.
Jumping Attack (Non-Magic)
Roll forward to stand behind Onze.
Prepare to dodge follow-ups.
Diagonal Sword Flurry
Swordmaster Onze attacks with a flurry of diagonal slices.
There are three in quick succession, and a fourth is performed after a long delay.
Dodge back three times, pause, then roll forward during the fourth attack.
Jump Attack (Magic)
Swordmaster Onze disappears with a Bloodhound Step and leaps into the air.
The sword’s hitbox is lengthened during the swing until it strikes the ground.
Wait until the Swordmaster almost reaches the ground and then roll forward.
It is then released in a two-rotation spin.
Quick-dodge twice or Parry the first attack.
If the player strikes during this flash, he will parry and riposte them.
Pause attacking when you see the blue glow.
After it fades, attack again.
Bloodhound Step
Swordmaster Onze can disappear and reappear at almost any point between combos but not during.
He cannot attack and remain invisible at the same time.
Keep your lock-on active to remain aware of his presence at all times.
Swordmaster Onze’s resistances aren’t a big deal, thanks tohis extremely low Poise and Healthfor a boss.
Area or charge spells are highly ineffective against Onze, especially with his higher resistance and incredible speed.
Allowing Swordmaster Onze a chance to attack can be deadly.
Therefore,the strategy here is to attack, attack, and(you guessed it)attack.
It is much faster to useThawfrost Boluses, and in this fight, every second matters.
Repeated attacks such as this weapon art can render him entirely immobile for the duration of your offensive.
Because every castle needs more scorpions.
