I pitied Shadow of the Erdtree's future 'Let Me Solo Her' champion, but seeing how the Elden Ring community's handled business, I'm not so worried anymore

Just a heads up before we get into this—spoilers ahead for the last boss of Shadow of the Erdtree. You've been warned, weary Tarnished.

There was a time where bosses like Artorias of the Abyss were feared, where Ornstein and Smough's wombo combos would send even the most hardened gamer into a cold sweat.
