A brutal Elden Ring video has neatly highlighted the unforgiving nature of Cleanrot Knights. Elden Ring is known for its challenging gameplay, intricate lore, and merciless foes. Players encounter some of the most ruthless creatures in The Lands Between, including Rotten Stray, Banished Knights, Stormveil Warhawks, Revenant, and Cleanrot Knights.

Cleanrot Knights are towering warriors who serve Malenia, Blade of Miquella and are famous for striking fear in the hearts of many Elden Ring players, making them one of the most memorable encounters in the game. They are found in multiple locations in Elden Ring, wielding a thrusting sword as a primary weapon alongside a spear or a scythe. The relentless nature of Cleanrot Knights becomes evident in a recent video, as they show no mercy even when faced with a desperate plea for compassion.

Reddit user Esbidee uploaded a video showcasing the Cleanrot Knights' unforgiving nature in the popular action RPG game. In the video, Esbidee is seen invading another Elden Ring player's world, engaging in a battle with the host player. As the two combatants trade blows, a nearby Cleanrot Knight joins the fray, making the fight even more challenging for the host. With the odds stacked against them, the host struggles to fend off both the invader and the Cleanrot Knight. In a desperate attempt to survive, the host performs the "Grovel for Mercy" gesture, a last-ditch effort to appeal to the humanity of their opponents.

However, things take a dark turn when the Cleanrot Knight shows no signs of mercy. While Esbidee acknowledges the host's plea by ceasing their attack, the Cleanrot Knight remains unfazed by the gesture and ruthlessly kills the host. The video serves as a powerful illustration of the uncompromising brutality of the Cleanrot Knights from Elden Ring, who have no qualms about ending the life of a player, even in their most vulnerable moments.

The incident has sparked conversations among the Elden Ring community, with many players expressing amazement and dismay at the Cleanrot Knight's merciless actions. Some have praised the realistic portrayal of the game's AI, while others have shared their harrowing experiences with these formidable foes. The video also highlights the unpredictable nature of Elden Ring's multiplayer mechanics, where invasions and alliances can lead to unforeseen consequences.

The video shared by Esbidee on Reddit is a testament to the unforgiving world of Elden Ring and the relentless adversaries that inhabit it. The Cleanrot Knights, in particular, have gained notoriety for their merciless combat style, as showcased by their brutal response to a host's plea for mercy.
