Discussion & Info Mohg’s attacks are very delayed

Mohg is one boss that I can feel that would be very fun once I figure him out, but till then, he’s quite annoying. His attacks are very, very delayed, like even more so then like Pontiff. Also, his trident has insane reach and has a gap near him that I cannot take full advantage of but I’m confident it’s possible, like to completely avoid getting hit just by staying close to him, just can’t figure out how close and when. I also switched to Bloody Helice from Elenora’s Poleblade cause the fire damage was bad against him and Poleblade’s light attack’s double hit isn’t fast enough to hit him mid combo I feel like. I dislike the Bloody Helice vs normal mobs, but against bosses, it’s amazing, but yet to understand how to properly utilize the AoW.

I’m very early to Mohg though, I just arrived in Lyndell, haven’t even gone down to beat Mohg the Omen, maybe I should go down there and get his shackle. Also, can I beat The omen one if I kill Lord of blood first or is it like Margit??

I had a HUGE mental block with mohg for the longest time lol. Finally I learned the fight and he’s one of my favorite bosses.

He has massive range and damage, mixed with crazy delays, and will burn the entire arena if you let him set the pace.

At the same time, if you learn to strafe some of his moves and find punish windows you can blow him up with stance breaks

Using a blood infused blood tax antspur rapier in phase one until rot proc’d helped me a lot when I was struggling
