A satisfying Elden Ring video shows a duo of annoying Crystalians getting crushed by a single strike each. Elden Ring players will face a wide variety of enemies and bosses throughout the game, and even some regular opponents can be extremely challenging to deal with if users don’t have the right equipment.
As an example, gamers will come across Crystalians several times throughout their playthrough, and these enemies are weak to blunt weapons. Even a non-upgraded blunt weapon can deal massive damage to these opponents, making it crucial for Elden Ring fans to be carrying at least one mace or hammer they can use with ease. Now, one Elden Ring player takes advantage of this weakness and uploads a new clip that crushes Crystalians with a single strike.
This video has been uploaded by Reddit user GasaX, who looks to be facing two Crystalians in a boss fight inside Altus Tunnel. As seen in the video, GasaX has brought a massive hammer to this battle, and they effortlessly destroy both Crystalian bosses with a single hit each. Some fans will notice that GasaX utilizes Elden Ring’s Royal Knight's Resolve weapon skill before each hit, increasing the damage of the next landing strike by a considerable amount.
Crystalians can be difficult to take on if players aren’t using blunt weapons, and many users in the comments section mention getting frustrated while fighting them with dexterity-based weapons. Blood weapons are extremely popular in Elden Ring, so it comes as no surprise that many players had a difficult time defeating these opponents.
Some users also make note of the battle that featured three Crystalians at the same time, probably referring to the Putrid Crystalians boss fight in Elden Ring. The rest of the comments are filled with fans discussing other strategies and builds they used to defeat Crystalians, with one user claiming that FromSoftware has nerfed these enemies through a series of post-launch patches.
In one of the comments, GasaX confirms that they used the Giant-Crusher colossal weapon for this Elden Ring build. Fans interested in trying out this weapon can find it near Leyndell, but gamers should note that they need 60 Strength to wield it effectively. There are quite a few other options available to players who want to use colossal weapons in their Elden Ring playthrough, with Starscourge Greatsword and Maliketh's Black Blade being two of the best options.
Elden Ring is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
