Bloodborne’s Hardest Boss Named by Let Me Solo Her

Even experienced players can feel humbled by the legendary Elden Ring warrior Let Me Solo Her, yet even this gaming icon found himself challenged by one of FromSoftware's most notorious enemies - Bloodborne's terrifying Orphan of Kos.

Let Me Solo Her became an overnight sensation in the Elden Ring community during April 2022, when the helmet-wearing, loincloth-clad warrior began offering salvation to players struggling against the game's most infamous optional boss - Malenia, Blade of Miquella.

According to his own records, he has since logged over 1,200 gameplay hours and faced Malenia thousands of times. His dedication earned him mythical status among fans, culminating in FromSoftware honoring him with a real-life sword as tribute.

In a recent video, Let Me Solo Her shared that after acquiring a PS5 to participate in the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree playtest, he finally experienced fan-favorite Bloodborne... where even this Souls veteran encountered major difficulties with some of the game's most brutal boss fights.

After adjusting to Bloodborne's lower framerate (30fps versus Elden Ring's 60fps), its oppressive atmosphere, and suffering the universal Bloodborne experience of dying to the clinic werewolf, Let Me Solo Her chronicled his complete Bloodborne journey - including its challenging DLC content.

"Finally, I faced the Orphan of Kos. Every Soulsborne DLC features that ultimate, overwhelming final boss," he explained. "Elden Ring had Promised Consort Radahn, Dark Souls 3 had Slave Knight Gael, and Dark Souls 1 featured Manus, Father of the Abyss. For Bloodborne, that legendary challenge was the Orphan of Kos."

"This fight required more attempts than any previous boss battle. I even found myself farming Chalice Dungeons off-stream for Blood Vials and bullets to restock," Let Me Solo Her continued (via GamesRadar+). "Without doubt, he's Bloodborne's most difficult challenge in my experience."
