I beat Messmer after like 40 tries cuz on my last attempt my message got appraised 6 times

[Chris]

Man I was so close on the first attempt and now I’m getting dogwalked over and over. In for a long one here boys wish me luck

[VultureXV]

While fighting this guy I was fully expecting a phase three.
"Alright, FROM, I'm making progress. Where's the troll phase?"

[obesechicken]

"So it's pretty simple, just dodge this 12 hit combo perfectly, if you're off by a frame you'll die. Then you can get in 1 hit and deal 5% of the bosses life. Then dodge his 6 hit combo perfectly. Don't worry if you take 1 hit from this one, you can heal up after the 6 hit combo and then dodge another 9 hit combo that he can follow up with complete with 3 delayed attacks you have to memorize the timing of, then if you dodge that perfectly you can hit him for 5% of his life again. Oh and the 9 hit combo looks almost identical to his 8 hit combo except Messmer raises his right arm 1 pixel higher in his 9 hit combo, if you don't see which one it is you'll die"

[HailDarkseid]

And the time it takes to drink a flasks is too fucking long

[shippy]

I`m stuck at this boss, beat every other one with less than 10 tries, this boy right here is so unpredictable.

[celphalonred]

Would love to see a build focused around using Messmers spear

[VultureXV]

Oh, if you need a shield in a pinch to deal with fire, look for the Serpent Crest Shield.
Also, as hilarious as it sounds, using the Man-Serpent Ashes would be EXTREMELY advisable because Man-Serpents are immune to fire, which Messmer loves using fire. (edited for accuracy).

I got to Messmer pretty early because I thought we were supposed to beat him right after Rellana💀 After a few attempts I realized he was way over my league and that it would probably be better to come back later after exploring a bit more. Now, two days later and a little more than 20h into the DLC, I finally think I’m ready to go back to him.

"Just dodge a 5 hit combo perfectly and you'll be able to get in a single hit"

[judahzimmerman]

I used the Scarlet Aeonia incantation to give him scarlet rot at the very beginning of each phase when he slams down. Then I chipped away at him with Siluria’s Tree and Marika’s hammer for some holy damage. It worked really well!

[charliechafe]

Pro Tip: if it seems like Messmar has too much health just use Star Fists. The bleed and speed of the attacks really nuke his healthbar

[BAEHELPJAYDO]

He's so aggro in his 2nd phase. I can't breathe

Edit 1: nope just tried from morning till night and I can't do it. Even with summons doing it on NG 11 was a mistake.

Edit 2: I just beat him 2nd try on day 2. I feel like a God. He wasn't that hard🥱

[Cosmiku]

Your fight video is the best I saw for now, I love how he used all his moves. Lots of video I watched, he didn't used his giant snakes attacks at all, where in almost EVERY TRY I did on him, he used that ultima skill where severals snakes hits before doing the spear explosion on the ground.

What a cool fight, probably one of my favorite in the whole Elden Ring game ! So fun to fight and learn him !

[spoopatroopa]

the entire time fighting all i could think of in my head was "Lets beyblade!".

[ICE-ing]

FYI for those of you watching at 3:37 you don’t need to dodge at all for his initial slam, only the sword rain that follows. Yes you can stand in the fire

[mrecto]

Started the dlc on ng+3 and i’ve been stuck to Messmer for 5hrs now. Lol
Patterns start to make sense and eventually i will succeed but man that dude is brutal. Probably the toughest boss i’ve faced since i started Souls series. He’s fun though.

[thepainphantom]

Some of his attacks can be parried, I tested it but it's hard to see sht because of the dark room and his flame BS. But I'm not deterred tho, it's only a matter of time. I'm taking my own time to beat him and enjoy all content and all area. Thanks Fextra, your website and videos are very helpful for Foul Tarnished (or Mongrel Intruder).

The reason I have unlocked him is I got lost to his area and excited for the creepy ass looking enemies (parried all those deadly flame red knights to death). I realized it kinda an endgame. Sht... I haven't even explored all of the map and I've unlocked BAYLE DREAD DRAGON AND MESSMER. What is wrong with me... BTW I HATE THAT GOLDEN HIPPO (altho it's a rhino)! Always 1-2 shots when you're playing without summons. Can't even fight it honorably xD

[jasongreenberg]

Finally beat him ridiculously enough spamming nothing but the light attack from 2-handing Rellana's twin blades, after dying 65 times trying everything else, just lucky

[tgnitty]

Why do they keep putting the summons inside the fight? You getting ambushed as soon as you enter the room.
