Elden Ring *ELEMER of the BRIAR* No Grind No Shield Blind Run

For this squishy build, one hit and Im gone unless Im buffed. Even then, if its a direct hit, Im gone.
Pretty difficult boss for me. Combo and timing of his attacks varies considerably. Lots of fastballs and occasionally a devastating changeup. Need to aggressively stay on his side. Staying ranged is difficult given there is a very small window of opportunity to counter attack. His Frontal attacks are deadly and harder to dodge.

You want him to use his shield as much as possible which is the easiest to dodge and allows you to do your power attack. Usually he uses it when you are on his side and poke him. Just keep circling him aggressively.
