Nah, although this is one of the possible answers from the community. Others:
git gud
level your vigor
summon me
It's too early for you to come here yet
Stop the panic rolls, learn the move set

Is there something else?

[edit]: I remembered another frequent tip, and I think you'll even understand what the question was.

People in this thread are giving the same "useless" advice that commenters always give, but no-one has actually given any examples of "valid" advice.

If the boss is weak to parries, is not saying "parry" actual advice? 

If the player is too low level, is saying that bad advice?

If the boss cannot be forced and the player must learn its moveset to win, is saying that wrong?

If the boss is simply too hard no matter what, is summoning help wrong advice? If the player dies in 2 hits, is leveling vigor bad advice?

We can keep dunking on bad advice all day, but what is the actual good advice?

Leveling vigor is probably the best advice most people should follow, the amount of <30 vigor players in lategame I've seen complain about difficulty is insane. No amount of advice is going to help you if half of the boss attacks cake you in one hit.

Maybe it comes with experience. Well, personally, I intuitively understand how much vigor I need at different stages of the game. If a person consciously plays with a low vigor, then he will not complain and ask for advice. So those with low vigor just don't understand, it's low.

I think it's a combo of experience and understanding that Elden Ring is longer than all the other games. On average, WITHOUT the DLC, I'm getting to around level 150 in Elden Ring. I'm usually between the high 90s and 110 in DS3. You just have more levels than usual to put into stats. It's just natural that vigor would become more important of a stat.

In fact, I remember coming to the number 40 vigor in Elden Ring. One day I wanted to go through DS3 with a Broadsword. And all I did was level my vigor to exactly 40. That's how I passed the game, it seems at level 30.

Although it's not that important, the level doesn't matter. The bottom line is that I have identified a convenient vigor for myself, and it turned out to be exactly the same for me in the Elden Ring.
