An Elden Ring player posts an irritating video of the difficult boss stealing their runes following a post-victory death.

Frustration strikes like a player who, when defeating a hard boss within the popular action RPG Elden Ring, found themselves to become robbed of the 660k runes the boss usually supplies. Elden Ring tends to play pranks on its player base. While most of the time it's by design occasionally systems setup can pull a quick one on players.

It isn't uncommon for Elden Ring to steal all runes from the player. No matter how many runes a person collects, even as many as 80 million runes, it can go down to zero within seconds. Elden Ring can use a multitude of techniques to take back the ball player's hard-earned runes, be it from an ill-placed enemy, or simply by a little trick played around the player.

Reddit user Hibananananana uploaded a relevant video showing the previous few seconds from the fight with Hoarah Loux, a two-phase boss fight that's the lead-up towards the final encounter of Elden Ring. Hoorah Loux is an aggressive boss, particularly in his second phase, delivering suplexes that may kill two players at the same time and ground slams that create the surrounding floor to explode. It was the second that caught Hibananananana, though not before the courageous player could deliver the final blow, defeating Hoarah Loux.

However, Elden Ring isn't any stranger to destroying a person's will, even if they are just seconds from defeating a boss like Malenia, because it was the ground exploding after Hoarah Loux's last attack that killed the ball player. And while it's seen that the ball player did receive Hoarah Loux's remembrance, they did not get the 660k runes that Hoarah Loux's fight gives in NG+, only the lone 46k runes left by their corpse. This, understandably, left Hibananananana slightly frustrated, much like so many Elden Ring players before them, posting it to Reddit to exhibit Hoarah Loux removing the runes they deserved.

This only goes to exhibit how it pays to become careful when dealing with some of the hardest bosses and enemies that Elden Ring provides. When a Castle Sol Knight will find a way to kill the ball player at that which was thought to become a safe distance, you need to always be cautious within the Lands Between.
