Elden Ringlike all the other games of FromSoftware or almost, is known for its immense difficulty and its gigantic open world filled with intimidating bosses.
The most underrated boss
Players have identified more than 150 bosses, optional and mandatory. Among them, many important bosses – and mandatory to finish the game – like Malenia, Margit, Radagon, and many others.
A while back, Elden Ring fans were debating which boss smelled the worst. More recently, the discussion has focused on the most underrated boss in the game.
“Who is the most underrated boss in your opinion? I start, Fortissax the Dragon Lich.” launched the user dangerswlf36. The topic quickly, and unsurprisingly, the post garnered great attention from the Reddit community and received over 5,000 upvotes. Other players have mentioned Fortissax, but the most commonly mentioned bosses are the Draconid Soldier of Nokstella, Godrick the Grafted and Placidusax, Draconic Lord.
The dragons, divine beings of the franchise
Some redditors have also pointed out that Fortissax is considered underrated simply because many Elden Ring players haven’t come across it.
Indeed, the dragon is one of the secret bossesand it’s not easy to find it without knowing exactly what to do.
In any case, and as is always the case in the Soulsborne franchise of which Elden Ring is a part, the Dragons are formidable enemies, and they are often considered among the most difficult bosses, despite the fact that they often go unnoticed by new players. And for good reason, they are most of the time secret and/or optional bosses.
Editorial review
On the editorial side, the question was also debated. And if Placidusax was indeed mentioned, it was curiously classic enemies who came back the most in the discussion, not bosses therefore.

A new update has just been deployed on the title of From Software, with tons of balancing. Players looking for co-op or PvP should achieve this more easily, on the other hand, those who abused Bloodhound Step and Corpse Piler can prepare the handkerchiefs.
