A mere glimpse at the awe-inspiring prowess of one of Elden Ring's most celebrated players, Let Me Solo Her, is enough to make even the mightiest Tarnished feel humbled. However, even he found himself challenged by one of FromSoftware's most notorious adversaries, Bloodborne's Orphan of Kos.
Let Me Solo Her first gained recognition within the Elden Ring community in April 2022, stepping into the role of a loincloth-clad, jar-headed savior. He offered crucial assistance to numerous players struggling with the RPG's most notorious optional boss, Malenia, Blade of Miquella.
By his own account, he has since dedicated over 1,200 hours to the game, facing Malenia thousands of times. His dedication has cemented his legendary status within the Elden Ring community, leading FromSoftware to honor him with an actual sword in acknowledgment of his contributions.
In a recent video, Let Me Solo Her shared that after finally acquiring a PS5 to participate in the Elden Ring Nightreign playtest, he was able to dive into the beloved Bloodborne. Even as a seasoned FromSoft player, he encountered significant challenges with some of Bloodborne's most notorious boss encounters.
After adjusting to the transition from Elden Ring's 60 frames per second to Bloodborne's 30 fps, and navigating the game's intense atmosphere and initial setback at the hands of the clinic's werewolf (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 that final boss who 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 required more attempts than any previous boss fight, and even drove me to explore Chalice Dungeons to farm Blood Vials and bullets off stream, just to replenish them," Let Me Solo Her added (thanks, GamesRadar+). "He's definitely the hardest boss in Bloodborne for me."
