He can be summoned along with your friends against friede for a 2v5 with the long finger.

Submit

Is he a strong summon

Submit

Chosen undead time travels to the end of the world using Filanore

Slave knight gael, who had to survive for a very long time, took so long to devoured every humans soul and is the last being alive in this world: WTF am I a joke to you?

Submit

On my ng+3 playthrough, Gael unequipped his sword during Friede's boss fight lmao, he still uses way of white corona. And he somehow survived the fight.

Submit

Don Quijote vibes.

Submit

My god! This wiki is more ambiguous than the game itself. What does he do? What should say to him to access the dlc? I know it's stupid and a no-brainer for some. But the wikidot made things simple and easy to understand that even an ape like me could pick up these games. NPC summons, what are they, gimmie a list. sheesh

Submit

It takes balls to have the "epilogue" of your flagship series hinge upon a newly introduced NPC but From handled it elegantly. Beautiful sendoff to the Souls series, excited for Elden Ring

Submit

Couldn't help but notice that the many red pieces of cloth he uses as guides in the Dreg Heap, along with the red cloth in his outfit look like they could have been torn off from the many red Lothric flags and banners present in the High Wall of Lothric. Not only that but there are Lothric Knights present at the Dreg Heap also. Could Gael somehow have a connection to Lothric?

Submit

Gael you're supposed to distract friede while I curb stomp ariandel so would you like to explain why there's ice swathes at my feet every 8 seconds

Submit

Gael has a big dumpy

Submit

“Gael’s beard cannot be obtained” lmao

Submit

Anyone know how to fix the bug where he disappears from the cathedral? I went i went I to the dlc and came back and he was gone with no item left behind or anything. I’ve tried warping back to firelink and quitting and closing the game but nothings working. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Submit

This guy does not spawn for the sister friede fight if you kill the demon prince before her

Submit

Submit

Submit

most people think geals a pedo for the painting girl hes her ****ing uncle wtf

Submit

You can go DLC2 at the end of the game but you can never go DLC1 without him.

Submit

How do you even go ringed city without meeting him first in the cleansing chapel???

Submit

Santa of darksouls ?

Submit

He is the pedophile ojisan of the little painting girl

Submit

So what is the speculated lore about this guy?

Submit

this guy tricked me into going to a snow covered hell I'm glad I got to kill him

Submit

Damn traitor

Submit

Best NPC yet.
Man carried the whole time.

Submit

Slav Squat Gael

Submit

Gone but not forgotten because how could I forget an epic boss fight like his

Submit

Gael has a weird audio bug where sometimes in his boss fight his weapons just don't make noise. I wish I could track down a fix because it really takes the edge off such a cool piece of staging.

This summon for the sister friede fight is undoubtedly the most useless summon you will ever have. A level 1 deprived toon would be a better person to summon than this brain dead sack of useless crap. The ONLY arguable value to this summon is the fact that it gives friede someone else to rip into while you deal with the big guy, and even that is a MINOR value considering how passive friede remains until she goes blackflame. But if you expect ANY help against blackflame friede from this summon you will be SORELY disappointed, he will literally stand well outside her range and watch her rip your face off while pointing and laughing at you

Submit

My man's beard game's so strong that you literally can't get it through any means possible. Best boss of DS3.

Submit

I don’t know if it’s become a known fact but if he disappears, the gateway to the painted world is on the alter where he was crouched.

Submit

I had a really weird glitch while talking to him in the cathedral. He turned into my exact character in the cutscene.

Submit

I swear, every time I spam the A to skip his weird monologue i'm only one off and he just moans

Submit

In the chapel, if you deny: "Oh. Are you certain of that? / Hogwash, hogwash. What Ash does not seek flame? / (laughs)" After denying, and asking again: "Ohh, you again, I knew it. / As any Ash seeks fire, you will surely help me. / My lady lives in the cold land of Ariandel. / I need you to show her flame. / A proper flame, that will burn the rot away. / You will thank me when it's done..."

Submit

Mr. Gael? The denizens of the Cathedral of the Deep have gotten together and bought you some trousers... Please accept our gift, oh no thanks necessary you can thank us by wearing those trousers as much as possible.

Submit

What a badass uncle

Submit

>Be me [bear with it :( ] >Start Ng+ >Meet Gael in the Chapel >Have flashbacks from his fight >Kill him every time u see him >I N F I N I T E P U N C H I N G B A G [Gael crossed me, he knows the rules and so do i.]

Submit

After he respawn: Dear me, why would you do such a thing? Dreadful ash, through and through. My lady lives in the cold land of Ariandel. I need you to show her flame. A proper flame, that will burn the rot away. You will thanks me when it's done

Submit

If you killed him: If you are truly ash you will seek fire. To set Arindal ablaze. (laugh).

Submit

Attack him for first time: What in blazes! Well I supposed you are ash (laugh) Attack him again: Yes of course as all ash should be (laugh)

Submit

If you refused: Oh are you certain of that? Hogwash, hogwash, what ash does not seek fire? (weird voice as if he is mad) If you come back after refusing: Ahh, you again, I know it, As any ask who seeks fire you will surely help me (Repeats lines about his lady and flame) You will thanks me when it's done.

Submit

just bled him as an invader and delt over 1000 dmg and took out like a tiny chip of his health

Submit

"Painting Women calls him". In case it is important, it is "woman calls".

Submit

if you kill gael he will just respawn laugh at you and say "im undead like you"

Submit

Where was this frail, weak behaviour when you decided to eat everyone's blood and get possessed by the Dark Soul, huh Gael?

Submit

"Cannot obtain his beard through legit means". I have an idea for the next limit breakers video

Submit

you beg for my help , but finally you try to kill me , wtf!

Submit

Lol, throw fire bomb when you first meet him, and he will say something.

Submit

Just equip Farron Greatsword, spam 2h L1 and dodge when he does a vertical slash. Most of his moves are horizontal slashes and you’ll more often than not be sliding under them during your L1 animation.

Submit

>Gael's beard cannot be obtained ingame through legitimate means. I bet Mr. Poofers could get that old man's beard.

Submit

What happens if you say no to gael in the cathedral what happens then?

Submit

if you kill him in the cathedral, can you still fight him as a boss? or is he invincible at the cathedrale?

Submit

If you kill him in the ring city does he appear at the cathedral

Submit

I've been a Dark Souls fan since Dark Souls I (didn't play Demon Soul). I've had a terrible time with a lot of bosses, (I'm looking at you Smelter Demon from DS2) a lot of places (I'm looking at you Anor Londo from DS1) and a lot of ennemies (you know I'm talking about you Hellkite Dragon). I had a terrible time going through the DLC and actually reaching this last battle. And to my own surprise, I managed to beat this guy on my very first try. And it has been the absolute best bost battle I've ever fought in a game.

Submit

He is by your side in one of the most epic battles in DS3, but later on in another DLC he becomes an even more epic boss battle

Submit

Annoying as hell in the Cleansing Chapel. Killed him multiple times simply because he will not shut the f*** up. The DLC should not be prodding you to go to it when you don't want to. Most annoying set-up ever. At least make it so I have to prompt him before he opens his annoying big mouth.

Can't wait to get The Ringed City DLC just so I can fight him proper, and shut that whiny mouth up for good.

Submit

I don't know if people know this... but when I healed this guy during the fight with Friede, I received a titanite slab.

Submit

I would say the key to fighting him would be patience. For the first phase wait for him to do the downward stab or the lunge attack and get 2 hits in here and there. If you get greedy you'll often get caught up in a swing and lose like half of your health.

Your shield, especially if you have a 100 physical defense is useful, but should only be used for emergencies just in case you get caught up. He usually has like 3 or 4 hit combos for the 2nd phase so just wait for him to finish! Just like any other dark souls boss, once you figure out his patterns he's really not terrible. Just don't get greedy with the amounts of hits to get in!

Submit

StoryTeller's staff OP. Basically any toxic/poison damage against him is incredibly effective. Very recommended that you don't solo Gael and make sure to memorize those stupid daggers he throws, if you're a caster with no poise: expect to get stunlocked and die.

Submit

This is the only boss, or enemy at all imo, that buffing your weapon with poison isn't completely pointless. In a fight where your rolling and using spacing as much as you have to in the second phase, sometimes more than others cause of rng, the free tics of dmg rly adds up and can do a surprising amount of dmg against him over the course of the fight. Only reason I don't sale rotten pine resin.

Submit

If you do ringed city first were to find slave knight

Submit

"gaels beard cannot be obtained ingamethrough legitimate ways" looooool wtf this is a good one, wishful thinking eh?

Submit

Huh, I just realized his hood is another version of the Thrall hood: "used to cover the head of lesser folk who were set to work as slaves throughout Lothric." I guess his status as "slave knight" at least let him wear a slightly less demeaning mask, though it sort of makes him look like a gnome.

Submit

I forgot he's the only summon for Sister Friede and I beat him. RIP my sanity.

Submit

The Question is, what happens if you kill Gael in front of the Cathedral bonfire before you finish ringed city? Does he still become a boss, or is that entire portion skipped and he never made it to the ringed city for the dark soul?

Submit

Did you ever find a solution to your problem?

Submit

Gael uses the canvas talisman and the executioners greatsword. It is stated that gaels greatsword is a broken down executioner gs so this is why he used it when he was still an npc

Submit

he's actually NOT the real uncle of the painting woman/girl. Just for clearification to keep the fanfiction in check.

Submit

Doctor Strange would like to have his cloak back.

Submit

Vortd great hammer frost and story teller staff is such cheese it should be patched lmao.

Submit

Seems like Gael won't look at you when you summon him for the Demon in Pain & Demon from Below/Demon Prince.

Submit

Could Gael be the third sealer from Dark Souls 1?

Submit

This boss is fast so just wait for openings and don’t get greedy. First stage was pretty easy for me as he was easy to read. I waited for an opening and boom...say hello to a charged attack of my Profaned Greatsword...It didn't work for the remaining phases so I switched to something faster yet powerful and finally put him down :-)
I found him quite challenging but nothing like Midir...;-)
Just take your time to learn his movset and you will get him :-)
Good luck guys!

If you beat gael in the ringed city dlc he will not be at the church. Instead a scrap of the painting will be left on the altar.

Submit

Gael is not appering at the church for me

Submit

So i got the ringed city installed and now Gael is showing up at the cathedral for me

Submit

Which Talisman/Chime is he using?

Also, I want that beard...

Submit

***** you gael

Submit

Where can I find the dialog when we meet him as a boss? And the first crawling pygmy was approaching Filianore's dead body. Anybody waited for it? I didn't know Gael was there as a boss so I was just wandering and cut scene started for Gael. After I died that pygmy disappeared. I couldn't see what was going to happen with him.

Submit

experienced invasion glitch where invader enters boss fight on ps4

Submit

Does anyone know what talisman normal gael uses

Submit

probably an executioner's greatsword

Submit

What weapon he wearing? Its like !SPOILER! boss version weapon, but not broken.

Submit

[SPOILER!!]



He can't be summoned after killing gale in ringed city

Submit

NG+ solo with a +9 composite bow is how i beat him. Try Ranged Battle.

Submit

Makes little sense to me that if you defeat "Berserk" Gale in the future he is missing in the Ariandel DLC. I completed TRC first and then went to Ariandel and you couldn't summon him for the boss fight. If I remember correctly we should encounter him one or two times as a NPC standing around in Ariandel but that wasn't the case either. So as it is now killing him in the future will erase him in the presence...

Submit

Time is concoluted, Gael is hungry for some souls.

Anyone here right now who would like to help me kill Gael in NG5 or so? I already beat him solo in NG, but am struggling with my main char. If fighting against him is rather easy for you, we should be able to make it in a few tries.

pasword: gael

I will look out for your signs and just summon you in the next half an hour or so. Thanks!

Submit

PLS help, I killed Gael before he takes me to the area of Andriel DLC, I forgot he is the NPC able to the Painted world, now I can't travel to the Ashes of Ariandel DLC lmao any help?

Submit

I think that completing the Ring City DLC and killing Gael makes him unavailable to summon for the Friede fight. (He also wasn't in the cathedral)

Submit

This dude has insane amount of health at ng+5! I seriously need help but most of the phantom players don't last until phase 2. Can someone please help me defeat this boss on XB1???

Submit

Is Gael Ariandel of the future or the past?

Submit

Gaels dialogue from his boss fight in the ringed city DLC was posted on the wrong NPC page and I hope to update this page with the right info soon.

Submit

If you encounter him in Ringed City before you fight Sister Friede, he won't be able to fight with you.

Submit

Need help slave knight gael plz psn name is snake 230 plz anyone that can

Submit
