A mere glimpse at the formidable presence of one of Elden Ring's most renowned players, Let Me Solo Her, is enough to humble even the mightiest Tarnished. Yet, this legend found himself challenged by one of FromSoftware's most daunting adversaries, Bloodborne's Orphan of Kos.
Let Me Solo Her first rose to prominence in the Elden Ring community in April 2022, donning the iconic attire of a loincloth and a jar-head, stepping into the role of a messiah for players struggling against the game's notorious optional boss, Malenia, Blade of Miquella.
By his own estimation, he has since dedicated over 1,200 hours to the game, facing Malenia thousands of times. His dedication not only earned him legendary status within the Elden Ring community but also resulted in FromSoftware sending him an actual sword in recognition of his contributions.
In a recent video, Let Me Solo Her shared his experience after finally acquiring a PS5 to participate in the Elden Ring Nightreign playtest. This allowed him to dive into the fan-favorite Bloodborne... and even he, a seasoned FromSoft player, encountered difficulties with some of Bloodborne's most infamous boss encounters.
After adjusting to the game's 30 frames per second compared to Elden Ring's 60 fps, and overcoming the initial hurdle of dying to the werewolf in the clinic (a common experience for many players), Let Me Solo Her documented his entire Bloodborne journey, including its DLC.
"Finally, I met the Orphan of Kos. Every Soulsborne game that has a DLC always features a final boss that feels overwhelmingly powerful," he remarked. "We had Promised Consort Radahn for Elden Ring, Slave Knight Gael for Dark Souls 3, and Manus, Father of the Abyss for Dark Souls 1. And Orphan of Kos was that boss for Bloodborne."This boss took me more attempts than any previous boss fights, leading me to explore Chalice Dungeons off-stream just to farm Blood Vials and bullets for replenishment," Let Me Solo Her confessed (thanks, GamesRadar+). "He's definitely the hardest boss in Bloodborne for me."
