Rather, it would break the game. On my st. Trina's torch run I already had crazy damage numbers. I remember taking out 70% of Melania's hp in a hit, that's not even counting the sleep. If you could powerstance, the game might crash from trying to even calculate it.
If you're curious about why some characters are so huge in Elden Ring like the people in chat at 31:36, the lore reason (according to the Giant Crusher Greathammer) is that people just used to be huge, and they got smaller with each generation after Godfrey beat the Giants
Also just better design for bosses to be bigger, Bushy made a video where each vig level increases size, and it's hilarious how less intimidating the bosses were
Man, you're my favourite elden ring youtuber! Every time you post, I know I'm gonna have perfect 40 minutes: the personality, the editing, the skill, the commitment - it's all on the top level! Huge respect!
Remember the times when you spend literally hours trying to learn Radahns move sets, but then started watching bushyy’s videos and every since then he has been one of the least intimidating big bosses?
Yeah, it’s a common fromsoft L that they put way more effort into the true bosses as opposed to midbosses, which ironically makes the main bosses easier because they actually telegraph their attacks properly
The transition from Maleketh to Gideon was incredible. “Witless tarnished, why covet destined death?” To “To become Elden lord.” It was like it was answering Maliketh’s question.
Hey Bushy I know you don’t normally make this kind of content but I think you could make a really good video on boss strats you use like tips and tricks or good stray for specific bosses
i miss your old colorful background. The sound panels are nice but some colorful lights like you had before would add a lot! also, moongrum is the most hilarious part of all the runs hahahhaha gets me every time
You know, they really could've let torches riposte. The animation could've been sticking the flame to an enemy and burning them for a sec. Would've been sick af in my opinion.
HES BAAACKKK, you inspired me like a year ago to finally finish my elden ring playthru and i got so hooked i went to ng+7, ive been thinking of revisiting the game to make a fun build using a lot of the strategies you use in your videos
Challenge idea every time you kill a boss you have to spin a wheel, and on yhat wheel will be letters, (every letter that is the starting letter of a weapon armour ect) and you have to use those items for the next boss until you change again. Example if u got "s" u can use star fists and scaled armour but there r other letters that could have hardly any good stuff. Also this letter applies to incantations and anything that starts with the letter so u can use talismans with the wrong letter or spells with the wrong letter. Too long ik sorry. This hasnt been checked if its a difficult challenge but if anyone has improvements to this challenge ill be happy to hear them. Extra idea u need a mod for this but all your damage has a 50% chance to do damage and a 50% chance to heal for the same amount it would usually hurt.
I tried this run a month ago, reached consecrated snowfield, killed Mohg, gave up when I reached Malenia. I didn't even wanna think about fighting Gideon with that setup. Edit: I noticed something, that I had shot myself in the foot with - The steel wire torch technically scales with dexterity. So I leveled that stat a bunch. And the returns were minimal. Same for the INT and Faith, when I was building for the Ghostflame and St Trina. I ended up having a very badly spread out character, that couldn't do shit. You have inspired me to try this torture again. Update: About 2 days later, I have now managed to beat the game with just a torch. While, admittedly, I never got Malenia past half health in phase 2, I managed to get through Gideon. The rest of the bosses were a cakewalk compared to them. Unlike Bushy, I kept using the steel wire torch, because I like the fiery aesthetic. Not much of a difference, because the lack of status buildup is made up for in better damage overall.
BTW, Fire Breathing on the Steelwire Torch is actually pretty good. It can get up to 3 hits in, leaves flames on the ground that do a decent d.o.t. as well as being a great way to mess up airborne opponents. I was starting a Torch run of my own and tried the steel wire against leonine misbegotten. It basically stun-locks him because he tries to do a jump attack, and it fores him to go to the ground.
I actually no-hit killed Morgott before he could get a single attack off after his phase transition with the Beast-Repellent Torch in my torch playthrough. It only took 7 charge attacks, shit blew me away! His brother on the other hand... pain.
With alot of these weirder hard challenges im shocked bushy doesnt use the icon shield on his back to just drip some extra health when he's getting hit!!!! That thing saved me afew times in a pinch
@bushy I have an idea for an unconquered challenge and I think you might be good enough to do it. Clear the entire map. It could be done with either one rest or if you’re a true baller no rest. There’s plenty of life steal in the game and with the mechanic of clearing groups to fill your flasks, as long as you’re very careful, you could clear castle by castle and fort by fort. Would probably be easiest if you cleared every dungeon to the boss room but didn’t fight them until more farmed.
They should buff mimic tear boss fight so if he has no equipment and you do he'll get a scary damage buff so he's still KIND OF a threat i also think torches that dont have that dance attack could have a specal AOW where they like grab the perosn and stick the torch in their face
If any of you have trouble against Melania, Use Mimic Tear and Sword of Blasphemy or Mimic Tear and Giant Crusher. With Sword of Blasphemy, you have range with L2 and Mimic Tear tanks all of Melania’s damage. With Giant Crusher, put on Lions Claw and spam L2. With Mimic tear doing this as well, you trade hits and she has no time to attack, It is hilarious. I beat Melania 1st try on my 1st play through and 1st try every other time. Bushy, thank you for inspiring me❤
That mimic was throwing absolute hands, if he would have leveled strength and dex he probably would not have won that fight considering it was whooping him
i saw a comment from someone saying "cant wait for the godskin quartet in the dlc" and on a side note to that statment, i may be alone in this but my favorite boss without any contest is godskin apolstle. i have never once when fighting him felt like he was bull or unfair and he just feels good to fight (basment one in particular). now some rambling, when i first found him i was a lvl 30ish deprived with the bloodhounds gs and i tickled the man and took me like 30 tries or so to beat him (context is i dont like shields or magic and i find pre buffing boring and just learned about the sleep pot thing recently ((still think thats cheip, godskin wasnt hard))) but after i beat him like that i know i can and every other time i fight him it just goes into the "i know i can beat him that was on me" stuff. TLDR: godskin apostle (skinny) is my favorite boss and would love to fight him or bosses like him in the dlc.
I had an idea for a challenge run but I don't know if you've already one. Beat the game, but you only earn runes from sales. Every rune earn from a kill must be voided. Or beating the game but you can only use items that enemies drop.
why was this so funny just seeing bosses stagger to a stick with a small flame is hilarious edit: also funny that this seemed to be on of his easier runs on the channel lmao
Who would win: General Radahn, a giant double greatsword whielding demigod holding the stars in place by just his slowly corupting mind, or... a naked man with a torch..

The reason you can't powerstance torches is because dual wielding ghostflame and trinas torches would be too op

Elden ring youtubers be like: Here is how to one-shot fire giant with a torch once
It's really sweet how he made those jump cuts in Ordina and Regal Ancestor Spirit because of that one commenter who liked them.

Yeah personality is the best out of any Elden Ring TH-camr.
100% agree!! And the editing for when he got each remembrance is just so dope
calm down
doing backflips on it
@DiabolicalHater If that's how he feels why rain on his parade?!🤡
2 attempts on Niall with a torch is godly
The "OK. listen" into smacking Astel in the face at 25:39 cracked me up way more than it should have
Remember the times when you spend literally hours trying to learn Radahns move sets, but then started watching bushyy’s videos and every since then he has been one of the least intimidating big bosses?
honestly lol, now even the Draconic Tree Sentinel is more of a headache than him.
Go ahead and play on an earlier version of the game, it'll change your opinion about that.

The transition at 29:16 from "why covet destined death?" to "to become elden lord" from Gideon was amazing
True
I'm glad someone else saw that
It was a nice transition
I did not notice that oml… that’s sick as hell
Really appreciate the Rememberance Boss edit you did here, really helps to keep up with everything you’ve done up to that point
29:20
That transition from maliketh to gideon is smooth AF
42:10 yeah for some reason it seems like waterfowl in her 2nd phase covers much less area than phase 1 so you can easily outrun it
The transition from Maleketh to Gideon was incredible. “Witless tarnished, why covet destined death?” To “To become Elden lord.” It was like it was answering Maliketh’s question.
I love that torches do a surprising amount of damage (at lest relatively), great video!
If you're used to 5-10k buffed up attacks, it's garbage. But if you're fresh out of a no weapon upgrades run, it's amazing.
29:19
- "Whitless Tarnished. Why covet Destined Death"
- "To become Elden Lord."
Hey Bushy I know you don’t normally make this kind of content but I think you could make a really good video on boss strats you use like tips and tricks or good stray for specific bosses
Erm shut up ☝️
love that editing at 29:16-29:23 "Witless tarnished, why covet destined death? To become Elden Lord!" Duh Maliketh
the editing in this video was great, nice cuts and feels like we always get just the right amount of time with each boss.
The Moongrum encounters are my favorite part of your videos 😂 I love these challenge runs please keep making them 💛
MoonGrum's antics are the highlights of these videos
Really cool that Bushy added the Torch lighting transition because someone said the missed and enjoyed it.
26:41 I'm sorry did Moongrum just "Omae Wa Mou Shindeiru" Bushy?
Every time with this guy, I love it
I start for the challenge videos, I stay for the eternal rivalry between Bushy and Moongrum
i miss your old colorful background. The sound panels are nice but some colorful lights like you had before would add a lot! also, moongrum is the most hilarious part of all the runs hahahhaha gets me every time
its a new home, not set up yet, only had just completed building the house, so things not installed in the rooms
I loved it when he said "it's bushin' time!" And bushed all over the bosses
👰♂️
Yeah he was really bushing it
He should stream val more often
Someone said something similar in september 2001
@@adachy yea someone said "it's tragedy time" and created tragedies all over those towers
They might as well be elemental clubs, a lot of underrated utility in in torches.
29:15 Maliketh and Gideon have a conversation about the Tarnished's motives
You know, they really could've let torches riposte. The animation could've been sticking the flame to an enemy and burning them for a sec. Would've been sick af in my opinion.
It's not like they don't have a torch repose animation, the followers torch in ds3 can, so that makes it even weirder NONE of the ER torches do
Imagine some dude just walks in your great boss area, naked, armed with only a torch. And he proceeds to kick your ass
From beating Elden Ring fast enough to get money back to beating it with torches ASAP, Bushy's sanity is impressive
That cut after Maliketh was slick. "Witless Tarnished, why covet Destined Death?" "To become Elden Lord."
I’m glad your channel grew as much as it did since Elden ring dropped
It’s a good day when Bushy uploads
(Or streams, or updates, or does anything)
that Maliketh dialogue line into Gideons speech edit was CLEAN! nicely done XD
HES BAAACKKK, you inspired me like a year ago to finally finish my elden ring playthru and i got so hooked i went to ng+7, ive been thinking of revisiting the game to make a fun build using a lot of the strategies you use in your videos
chat: "moongrum is 25% of Bushy's content"
Every anime has its main character rivalries
That mimic was trying so hard
I love the Moongrum section of every run. You're never sure how it's gonna go but it'll probably end with that bozo killing himself.
I love the new bosses killed screen. Its sick and helps remember progress for when you come back to a video
W subscriber interaction with ancestor spirit montage it’s why you’re the man
+ Why covet destined death?
- To become Elden Lord
"Gideon the all interfering"

The background of Bushy's room looks so different with the lights on
You should use the sleep torch on fire giant because after you break his ban-aid thing, you can make me sleep. Good vid tho
Miyazaki: And here's a torchpole, so your torch only run can have a bit more moveset variety.
