Elden Ring Nightreign's Sentient Pest boss is kicking my team's ass. Despite having amassed hundreds of collective hours across the Dark Souls and Elden Ring franchises, my Nightreign trio is completely stuck on this unholy union of bug and butterfly. Turning to my esteemed colleagues for help, they are unanimous in their advice: 'Use Ironeye'. I am resolute in my response: 'No'.
Physical ranged attacks - the kind that use bows and arrows rather than magic staffs - are not new to FromSoftware's soulslike catalogue, but it's rare that they've been a major factor. If I asked you to picture Dark Souls, I'd wager that you're more likely to conjure an image of an armored, greatsword-wielding, Berserk-style fighter, rather than a nimble archer.
