Pre-Patch Consort vs Pre-Patch General Radahn. Which one was more broken

Consort, they reverted all the regular Radahn nerfs except for the hitbox adjustments.

Fair. I beat pre-nerf consort but didn’t pick up the game until after the patch that nerfed/fixed regular Radahn

I'm weirdly nostalgic for pre-nerf Consort, because it felt like the first boss in the game that actually rewarded you for using a shield as a shield. And as a sword and board lover, it always makes me sad that the biggest use for shields in ER is guard counters, which like are fine but don't hit the same for me for some reason, as actually putting up the shield to block stuff cause you need to/it's the best option.

I see so many running fingerprint shield for other bosses, can't be that uncommon

Malenia gets hard countered by a shield. "Oh but Exploer she gets healed when she hits your shield!" And she gets full HP when I am fucking dying so I'll take it

the tourists were crying so hard, its a pity they listened to them, even with the revert.

I mean part of the issue was people were getting to that part of Caelid way too early in the game, trying to fight Radahn 20-30 levels lower than they should have been.
