Unexpected Delight: Elden Ring Bug Lets Players Battle Dragonlord Placidusax Again!

A fascinating bug in Elden Ring has unexpectedly fulfilled the wishes of many players by allowing a second encounter with the formidable Dragonlord Placidusax. Typically, FromSoftware games are known for being relatively bug-free, but those few that appear in Elden Ring often add a humorous or intriguing twist to the gameplay. This recent discovery is no exception and has been met with delight by the community.

For example, one amusing glitch previously transported the game’s beloved turtle to an entirely new location, sparking laughter and memes within the Soulsborne community. The recent bug, however, presents a rare opportunity: the chance to battle Dragonlord Placidusax more than once. This anomaly was first reported by a Reddit user, mfdoorway, who found themselves unexpectedly revisiting the Dragonlord Placidusax Site of Grace, only to discover that the boss had respawned.

Elden Ring enthusiasts noted the irony in this bug affecting Dragonlord Placidusax, a creature famed in the game’s lore for its ability to manipulate time, adding a layer of thematic appropriateness to the glitch. What’s more, this wasn’t an isolated incident; the boss continued to respawn with each subsequent teleportation to the site, granting the player multiple opportunities to earn the Remembrance of the Dragonlord.

While this glitch may simply be a quirky error, it aligns closely with one of the community’s most desired features: the ability to replay boss battles. Many fans have expressed that a formal mechanism to rechallenge bosses would enhance the game, even without additional rewards. The idea of a boss-rush mode has also been frequently suggested, enhancing replayability—a feature largely facilitated through mods but not officially implemented in the series.

With the upcoming release of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC for Elden Ring, players are hopeful that such features might soon be introduced officially, enriching the gameplay experience even further.
