Elden Ring Boss Commander Niall Can Be Easily Killed in Cheesiest Way

screenrant.com:

An Elden Ring player has shared an easy way to defeat Commander Niall in a cheesy way. Elden Ring plays host to a range of challenging opponents for players to face, from the Demigods that take on the role of the game’s main bosses to optional ones that players can choose to search out and defeat. As for Commander Niall, he is one of Elden Ring's Mountaintops Of The Giants optional bosses, one of the areas that players will get to visit in the latter part of the game.

Commander Niall is also one of Elden Ring’s more difficult boss encounters, not only because of Niall himself, but also because he is accompanied by two Spectral Banished Knights as well. Managing and defeating all three opponents makes the fight extremely challenging. Commander Niall possesses both Ice and Lightning-based attacks that are able to stagger players as well as quickly destroy Spirit Ash summons. The difficulty of Commander Niall and some of the game’s other bosses have forced some players to employ cheesy tactics to be able to defeat them, such as another Elden Ring player tricking bosses to their death.

Reddit user H3NRY-56 shared a video of their cheesy strategy to defeat Commander Niall on the Elden Ring subreddit. The video shows the player aiming their bow through one of the openings of Castle Sol’s battlements. They then begin firing arrows through it and hitting Commander Niall, who is standing on the other side of the opening. They continue doing this, slowly chipping away at the boss’s health, until Commander Niall dies and the “Great Enemy Felled” notification pops up along with the items they get for defeating the supposedly-difficult enemy.
