The negation numbers are the % of your damage that gets blocked. For example, if a negation is 60, 40% of that damage by that type will go through and 60% will be negated. Bigger number = less damage. A negation of 100 means no damage goes through, and a negation of -100 mean the enemy takes 2x damage from that source. 0 means damage goes pretty much as is.

Fight Strategy:

Godfrey, First Elden Lord & Hoarah Loux, Warrior are one and the same boss. Godfrey transforms into Hoarah at half health. The first phase is very easy, it’s the same Godfrey boss you fought earlier in the Royal Capital, except that he is now in human form and no longer in ghost form. His attacks are the same though and the same strategy applies as in the earlier fight – can simply dodge back and spam him with spells. The Meteorite Staff + Rock Sling spell are great here again, repeated hits will stun him. Summon some Ashen Remains to distract him. In his 2nd phase he is more aggressive and he uses quick melee hits and wrestling throws. He deals a lot of damage, about 1000 damage with a throw even when wearing heavy armor. Having 60+ Vigor is highly recommended to not die in 1 hit. He also does some AoE attacks on the ground, you can tell when he makes the ground glow, then continually dodge backwards out of the danger zone. In his 2nd phase you really want to have some leveled-up Ashen Remains (Mimic Tear is best) to distract him. Then spam him with the Rock Sling spell, 4-5 hits will stun him, it has very long range, deals massive damage, and homes in on him. With this you can take down his health very quickly. If your Ashes die, run away from him, let him miss an attack, then use a quick spell, repeat. Run around in front of him to lure him into an attack but quickly run/dodge away to evade, especially his throws deal brutal damage and should be avoided. As a melee char you can use basically the same strategy, 1st phase is easy, then in 2nd phase have your Ashen Remains still alive, deal some damage from behind while he focuses on your Ashes, then run/dodge from his attacks and land 1-2 quick hits and repeat. The 2nd phase can be a bit annoying but luckily he doesn’t have too crazy much health.
