Then comes phase 3. As we all know, the developers got lazy and copied Malenia’s moves, so distance is painful. I used glitches to TP Radagon and Maliketh into the arena and set their team to mine, so we can 3v1 him, however, it's still hard. You need to rely on Maliketh + Black Flame (which also requires a second Tear for maximal Incantation strength on Order Seal) to use HP based damage, as he becomes immune to Frost, Rot, and Poison for phase 3, and bleeding starts the phase 3.5 on top of an armor + damage boost. You need to hit him with the Sacred Relic sword at the same time as Maliketh's attack, before finishing phase 3.

This is when I couldn't get anywhere further. I wasted all 20 Larval Tears I had and it takes an hour of running to and from Rennala due to the glitches being hard to pull off, and it's just mentally taxing. So hopefully you all can use this to your advantage and get through the next 17 phases better than I could.

This might help some people out,I found a way to get through the first 3 phases of Rick, SOG.
You need 100% gamer focus and a cheese weapon (RoB is best) to get him down, alternating to BHS to create distance after using a dose of the weapon art. I've given myself 14 Cerulean Flasks and a Cerulean Seed Talisman in order to do this, and then you have to glitch out of his arena so you can respec with Rennala (The path is a pain, you can't teleport or you restart), so you can use the Moonveil. That makes phase 2, which you need to finish off the Fingerslayer blade, much easier, and combined with using a glitch to get Black Flame Blade onto Moonveil and inflicting Poison/Rot for Max-HP based damage, you can lower his health significantly. Phase 2, once you get the two DoTs stacked on him and successfully give yourself the +10 Black Flame Moonveil with 80 Dex and 80 Int, you can start dealing some damage. Phase 2 is easier than phase 1 because of this.

Realtalk: I refunded after that fight, it broke not only my game character but myself in real life.
Now I have to pay 300 bucks per therapy session
