Elden Ring owns a large open world, with many different areas for players to explore freely, without following any order or rules. And of course, scattered in that world are aggressive, tough bosses, ready to “exchange moves” with them at any time. It is true that there are many bosses that are optional, meaning that gamers can skip without fighting and still be able to continue their journey. However, if they do not prepare carefully at all times, they will most likely collapse before they can run away.
Up to now, the Elden Ring fan community has shared a lot of experience and tactics to deal with each boss in the game. One of them is the summoning of Spirit – the souls of warriors and sacrificed creatures, to aid them in tough battles. However, with opponents like Night’s Cavalry – the boss only appears at night time, you cannot apply this strategy. But that’s okay, because just cleverly taking advantage of the game bug a bit, you can defeat it without having to attack a single attack.
Night’s Cavalry is a mini boss that only appears at night in the Elden Ring.
Recently on Reddit, a gamer nicknamed YMabDaroganCont shared a video of his encounter with Night’s Cavalry. Initially, this player tried to use several magic attacks but failed to hit any. Meanwhile, it was difficult to observe the surroundings when fighting an equestrian boss like Night’s Cavalry, and so YMabDaroganCont accidentally rushed over the bridge and seemed to die soon after.
However, a little “light bug” of Elden Ring helped this player fortunately “land” and stand firmly on a super narrow ledge. Night’s Cavalry, in accordance with the game’s programming, rushed in the direction of YMabDaroganCont, crashed head first and died. The screen now says “Enemy Felled” (the enemy has fallen), and ironically in this case it literally fell off the cliff, yielding 2400 Runes to our lucky gamer.
Lucky gamers “tricked” Night’s Calvary and defeated this boss in just a few seconds. It can be seen that when standing on the ledge, the mount’s head is even more “invaded” into the bridge wall, a small bug that helps this player not fall down and die.
In the comments section, many other Redditors did not regret mocking Elden Ring’s AI, which is sometimes a bit “stupid” for a game with terrible difficulty. For example, a user with the nickname TomAmaroq shared that just running straight up the hill, for example, for Night’s Cavalry to step on poisonous traps can defeat it without spending any “blood”.
In fact, the strategy of taking advantage of the terrain to defeat the bosses quickly has been used by many Dark Souls gamers, especially when they participate in speedrun challenges – completing the game in a short amount of time. shortest time possible. It’s interesting that this strategy can still be applied in the “junior” game Elden Ring 1 so easily and effectively.
