Limit yourselves to the Noble Sorcerer summon. Useless undead noble that just wanders around casting a weak ass glint stone.

Naw, the only challenge worth considering: melee only, lvl 1, no flasks, no maiden, no torrent, all bosses, unarmed.

Anything less than that is just diluting the true Elden ring experience.

Crazy part is I'm sure someone will do it, no doubt.

People have already done level 1 wretch and no hit. The no hit had to have taken tons of tries because every single boss seems to have random move sets from time to time. It's funny watching the speed runners die every once in a while screaming "WHAAAAAT?!! HES NEVER DONE THAT BEFORE" just like me on attempt #20 when I'm finally about to beat some fucker for the first time

Yeah, the level 1 with a club beating malenia is pretty cool. Kinda makes you realize that she really only has 2 moves that are actually hard to avoid, both of which basically 1 shot you if you don’t. And if she starts those moves when you aren’t in a good position avoiding them is impossible.

So they've already found the solution to the 50 hit invisible walls. Get to it boys

I remember when like 4 goddamn years later someone found a new chalice dungeon boss in Bloodborne. These devs are just sadists

From what I understand it was never meant too be found, the only reason why it was found was cause people were diving and figuring out the Chalice generation systems....

STR/FAI is falling apart completely in the lategame. Mobs do too much damage to be able to trade with them and have too much poise to stagger with anything but colossal weapons. The entire middle section of like halbers/hammers/greatswords feels just awful against most of this - too slow to get in any damage between mob attack chains, not enough stagger to break their chains and get in damage that way.

Left Lyndell... Came back to get fingerprint shield, spent good time to find that small entrance to underground. So confused with underground, even worse with all that jumping shat!

How do invasions work? I got invaded for the first time and actually almost killed the guy he got lucky. But then I went back to get my runes and he invaded me again.

And again. and again. But only if I went back to that same area on the map? He seemed much more powerful than me has had this mace that created a lava explosion that hits like a truck. It was kind of fun as I love pvp, but it wasnt fun when it just kept happening over and over and forced me to not go back to that spot of the map.

He's an NPC invader, they're always at the same spot

Oh wow. lol. Thats pretty cool. The AI was pretty damn good, it dodged every single thrown weapon and then timed their attacks to counter my own etc.

I think the endgame is balanced toward stacking self buffe for str builds. All the vids i see with it have a multi buff process before doing huge dmg.

They tend to like to run into your first hit, and then dodge afterwards. So I'll usually let them run in, hit, and then dodge back. Rinse and repeat
