couldn’t have put it better. just found this guy and he’s one of the first youtubers to get me subscribe after 2 mins into the first vid of his i watched
A tip for your future challenges: you don't actually need to do the three assassinations for rykard. You can just get to the end of the zone where there's a warpgate which will take you to his boss room. It's situated behind the snake throneroom, close to the stonesword imp door. I love your videos btw, they have an immaculate energy to them. Kingly behaviour.
hey im sure you wont see this but a quick note: i did a bow only run myself and what i did was instead of normal attacking, i jump attacked almost all the time, because the animation is faster and with the claw talisman it makes all fights waaay quicker
I did some tests and from my tests I didn't do more damage with claw talisman. So unless something bugged out or I tested wrong idk. I'll go test again ig
I did bow-only without a guide until Radagon...then found out that shortbows have a jump + land attack and longbows don't. I used a longbow the whole game until that point because of the longer reach. Radagon is so goddamn hard with longbows. I switched to a shortbow and it was still challenging, but reasonable because of exactly that, the landing attack gives you much more damage and lets you circumvent his parry. With longbow you would shoot, get parried, and roll, or shoot again and trade. Wish I knew about the blackbow. Also on the note of fighting humanoids, jump attack is mostly consistent as opposed to spamming barrage or just praying, but you do have to wait for them to attack and jump back to shoot and dodge
You can stop Mohg's blood curse with a Physick tear you find after fighting one of the Bloody Fingers. Just FYI if you have to beat him in a future run.
Many people don't know this and call Mohg's attack unfair. I mean, IT IS unfair. But if you just explore Mohgwyn Palace a lil before fighting him it gets way easier.
I had that tear (Eleonara drops it I believe) long ago before fighting Mohg and didnt even use it. Thing is I totally forget that I had something so crucial after 70 hours...

I think the idea of 'I try out the XYZ run' with someone that isn't godly skilled at a Soulsborne game is actually a really good idea and might show folks that the game isn't as hard as many people make it out to be, especially with the higher mobility the player is capable of in Elden Ring.
Honestly elden ring was my first from soft game I've also played dark souls 1 3 and sekiro And honestly I would say sekiro's the hardest elden ring is second hardest then dark souls 1 then dark souls 3 in my personal opinion
@@thegamingshiba8226 I'm still playing sekiro DS1 and DS3 I multiple playthroughs running side by side I recently beat the bell gargoyles in ds1 The ashina elite in sekiro And vordt of the boreal valley in ds3
Many people think that a LVL 1 wretch run is ungodly hard but its not that bad. Just upgrade your club or whatever you're using, use the throwing pots, and you actually do some pretty dang good damage
For future reference there’s a teleporter to rykard that lets you fight him without doing the volcano manor questline, the path to it is hidden out a window on the top floor of the church of eiglay
He can also use the abductor to teleport underneeth it and then jump over to the cage and head up, or when grabbing the quest go through the hidden pathway insteed of the doing the quest
@@Sapphire_Eye no the teleporter definitely is. The questline is just the 'easy' way since it requires nothing in the manor, but it does require you progress through another 2 entire areas
there is also an illusory wall in the first room on the right going down the hallway, unlocked with the drawing room key. it requires you to do a whole dungeon but hey.
For Mohg's Fight you can actually neutralize the damage you take from the Three two one attack that he does. It's one of the pearls for the mixed physick called "Purifying Crystal Tear" Which reads as following "Purifies the Lord of Blood's curse in a mixed Physick ^-^ at that point he just stands still while you only lose 1 hp for each stack that pops
0:12 as a traditional archer this makes me smile ' you just pissed off the compound and cross bow bros :) well done you just earned my sub ( and then you proceed to pick up a compound bow)
Really good run! I've got a great tip for Godfrey & Hoarah Loux though: Literally every stomp or slam AoE can be easily avoided by jumping, and can be baited by keeping distance in the 1st phase (he'll dash towards you and start with a stomp). This way 50% of the fight will be stomps, which you can consistently counter with jump shots, then roll away from the follow up attack to keep your distance - bait a stomp - repeat. Use barrage when he's idling. You just get openings everywhere if you use the jump shot. I've had problems doing this fight melee, and now the bow is pretty much my go-to when it comes to this fight
As someone who has been using a bow build for a few weeks now. The most interesting thing i have figured out is that the spear talisman works on bows. If you hit them during their attack you do extra damage. This talisman increases that by quite abit.
2 things: 1: There's a physique that super nerfs Mohg's super attack in a church in Altus Plateau that you get for defeating an invader, Bloody Finger Eleonora. 2: You don't need to do the assassinations to get to Rykard, there's a Magic Portal in Volcano Manor that teleports you straight there. That's all, it was a really good video m8, and I'm exited for the Crossbow one!
For longbows (bows), it’s much easier to avoid being hit by shooting while jumping backwards. Doesn’t get you locked into the animation and creates some distance. I’ve been running bow since I started. Love it in this game.
I love seeing people fight Mohg for the first time not knowing that you can almost entirely negate his blood ritual with a crystal tear. Tbh tho it's a little too obtuse to figure that shit out but it's not the first time From has pulled some shit like that.
Absolutely amazing video, as well as the last couple of them. I really enjoy both the content and your presentation so keep up with the good work and can't wait to see more challenge runs from you! Much love
for anyone thinking about this as a run to try on their own: Its easier then it sounds, bows and some skill make alot of the game really, really easy. Some tips: 1: Arrows Sting is BETTER then arrows reach, but you should be using both. Arrows reach increases the distance before your damage drops off, sure, but bow builds like this are not always going to be able to choose their range. Whereas sting outright boosts base damage. 2: The ONLY bows you need are the composite shortbow, which you can buy for 3500 runes from the merchant right past entrance to liurnia (which you can skip to by heading north from the stormhill shack) and the black bow, which you can acquire in the capitol. The composite bow is a shortbow... this means it has the best moveset (ie quick fire from jump attacks, and quick fire from rolls) and can be fired from full gallop on torrent without slowing down. The black bow, has longbow damage and range with shortbow quickfire from jumps and rolls, PLUS it has access to barrage and is only worse then the composite bow in terms of horseback utility as using it on torrent will slow you down. Mighty shot is certainly a strong ability, but barrage has better dps at a fraction of the fp cost. And enchanted shot is arguably more useful then mighty shot. Until you get access to the capitol, however, the shortbow is your best option in terms of moveset. 3: You can get immediate access to mt gelmir without fighting any bosses by sprinting through fort faroth for the medallion half, and using the ladder. The bats wont be able to aggro or kill you in time, so as long as your'e fastish, so its not pixel perfect routing. The other half is in fort haight, but the blood knight isnt hard to kill with a shortbow so.... your choice, really. 4: You can get 1-9 somber stones before fighting ANY bosses, so long as you have a modicum of skill at jumping. Funnily enough, though, without wrong warps or skips there is only the 1 somber stone 7, but a handful of 8s or 9s. 5: You need, need NEED access to the mohgwyn crow farm as soon as possible, purely to make arrow farming efficient. I also recommend killing all the special arrow vendors (you can keep Kale alive, since most vendors sell base arrows), and also killing the Bell Bearing Hunter at the warmasters shack at night for the bone bell bearing. Doing this expedites your ability to accrue arrows. 6: If you dont want to bleed everything to death (which is less efficient because arcane doesnt effect arrow status buildup), fire arrows are the least resisted damage arrow in the game and have some solid damage. There are similar options for damage, but its best to look up boss weaknesses and choose the element arrow of choice. 7: Poison arrows suck dig bick. Your better off locating the rotbone arrows, and spending time chasing butterflies in the swamp. The ONLY time I would recommend poison arrows at all, is if you use the Serpent Bow against my recommendations. Serpent bow with poison arrows, unimproved (even with its broken arcane scaling which DOESNT WORK, btw) can two hit poison things, one hit if you use its mighty shot due to its unique interactions with poison infused arrows. Serpent bow is good for poison, and nothing else. And arguably, its not even worth it because you can just get similar results with the pulley bow, without the restrictions. 8:You will want to use a defensive talisman. I would recommend either the green turtle talisman if you trust your dodges, because of how stamina hungry short bows and the black bow can be, or doing some parkour at the bestial sanctum to get the dragoncrest talisman.
I can't believe you did a whole bow run without using the main bow mechanic of JUMP SHOT. It's the fastest attack you can do with a bow, and one of the bows can even get a quick shot after landing too What a madlad
I just recently found your channel and let me just say I'm very impressed with your commitment to sticking it out and completing these crazy runs and making the videos funny and enjoyable to watch throughout. You're awesome man, keep up the good work and I'll keep watching for sure
Just as a tip: You can unequip every weapon and armor before you fight the mimic. That way he copies you with no weapons and no armor. Then just equip your build and have fun.
i see everyone do this and i just dont understand it. i love the idea of the boss mimicking the player exactly. just wish it had more hp or also had similar amounts of heals as the player
Something I've been wanting to see from you is if you can beat the game with only Frenzied Flame incantations, I feel like working around/with the madness effect and using those kinds of incantations would be interesting to see ☺️
Hilarious video. Your monotonous tone + the dry jokes create a cocktail of cheeky humor that is hilarious for both gamers and non-gamers alike. Keep up the uploads man and feel free to make them more frequent and shorter with more content.
I’m going to guess Drizzt. Nice run, could have made it much easier for yourself with a pulley, composite or black bow and run an easy route for upgrades. But I’m guessing you wanted the challenge so I respect that.
Drizzt was my first guess but I remember him having purple eyes, or at least he does in the R.A. Salvatore books, can't say for any games since I haven't played them
Hey Tye , if you follow Yura's questline and beat elenora.. you get a tear that you can add to flask which makes you immune to the NIHIL NIHIL attack of morgh
Just wanna say even though it’s to late that jumping then shooting is faster than standing and shooting with longbow (only done it with longbow Idk about shortbow) just thought I’d mention it for anyone else who wants to try this themselves
You can get to Rykard without doing any of the assassinations. There's an illusory wall in one of the rooms that the Drawing Room Key opens that sets you on the path to Rykard.
dude im a recent subscriber and just found out about you, but ive literally watched every single one of your videos because you are a freaking funny, genuine dude. you remind me of my friend and how we played all the souls games and like just having fun, thanks for the videos man youre the bomb
I ran a bow against Rennala as well, and im glad im not the only one who had a tough time with it 😁 Radahn on the other hand fell hard because of all the summons i kept calling
if you want a rematch with mohg, the second church of marika in altus plateau gives you a physick that significantly reduces his phase 2 attack and also lets you power through it also if she left you for ricky she didn't deserve you
I think Pts only could be doable. Some of them are pretty dope. I'd run a faith build with support spells and use the pots that scale with faith for damage.
12 Pots with Good FTH and INT using just Fire Pots in which has the least amount of Resistance moat bosses have can demolish them. It's actually strong and the fact that you can just craft on the fly is nuts and only impeded by mats which can be farmed or picked up mostly. That's not including the obscene amount of physical throwable consumables which some scales to DEX and INT which makes Larval Tear very useful. Fact that you can sell boss souls or item loots for some sold consumables also helps the run. Though Pot Build requires setup like the Pot Head Helm and Proper Talismans.
Rain of arrows or even the bow you get from radahn's rememberance in combination with radahn's spear arrows would help you out so much I think. Nevertheless, amazing video, sir!!
Something to also possibly add into your runs is the Raptor's Black Feathers, it gives you a 10% damage increase to jump attack. You can jump attack with bows I believe, correct me if I'm wrong tho. Raptor's Black Feathers is located behind an illusionary wall in the Sages Cave near the Altus Plateau. The White Mask, located in Mohgwyn Dynasty Mausoleum after killing a white mask invader, raises attack power when something nearby (wearer included) suffers from Blood Loss (10% Damage, 20 secs). I believe it also stacks with the Lord of Blood's Exultation talisman for an additional 20% damage for 20 secs. That's 40% additional damage under the right circumstances. The Albinauric Bow, dropped by Albinauric Wolfback Archers around the Consecrated Snowfield, can be infused with ash of war, so I believe you can add frost to it for 20% damage boost to your bloodloss spike. Put barrage on that boy, if you can (haven't tested), and you'll pop these boys. The Hammer Talisman gives a 20% buff to stamina-reducing attacks, does this apply to frostbite which reduces stamina recovery? Frostbite: Deals damage and lowers target's damage absorption by 20% and stamina recovery. Talisman #1: Arrow's Sting Talisman - 10% Talisman #2: Lord of Blood's Exultation - 20% Talisman #3: Hammer Talisman - 20% Talisman #4: Rotten Winged Sword Insignia: 13% at max tier. Albinauric Bow - Frostbite: 20% Raptor's Black Feathers: 10% White Mask: 10% Total: 103% additional damage under right conditions.
Been binge watching a lot of your videos the last few days and gotta say you're funny as fuck 🤣 I love the creativity of the challenges and you high key be doin great with them, even if your cheeks gettin clapped 1000 times lmao. Got a sub from me lookin forward to your future content man! 🙌
Greatbows are a different pain on their own for some reason than other bows. Probably because they are slow as heck even if the damage is good in which is bad for small bosses like Crucible Knights or Ulcerated Tree Spirit though if only focusing on Main Bosses then from Malekith up to Radagon is heavily a problem. Not for Elden Beast though surprisingly due to the amount of time spent of the Boss circling around for positioning and delayed attacks that gives the player time to shoot 1 arrow without danger.
@@bismarckimperia8781 I know, I really know, I am on Malenia try n. 157 and cannot get her to 2nd phase, if you have any tips let me know because right now it seems after morgott it is impossible to do it greatbow only, btw golem greatbow +10 lvl 85 damage to boss health bar only with greatbow no summons, without exploits of AI, it is as of right now after 2 weeks of trying impossible to do all remembrances, speedrun is any%greatbow only possible but right now I can't do it non glitch
@@samueltok9130 Malekith is possible for this run. His first phase is too slow for quick movement so getting the farthest and sniping him once then running to the farthest corner again and shooting him once until his second phase which repeats the process. Much more safer as he can possibly idle for 2-3 seconds due to you being maximum bow range before running at you. Though its like playing using a GS by using hit and run tactics but the ultra sniping version. He is possible for GB. Same for Fire Giant but just takes so goddamn long. Malekith Ultra Sniping Hit and Run tactic is useful for FG due to his slow ass Fire Balls of Doom, easier in the second phase but just too long. Though aim for the weak spots for a much more bonus damage. Just spam the AoW for Gideon, don't get in his range. Mogh is easy just bait his specific aerial dive in the second phase or use Ultra Sniping Hit and Run. Due to his semi-second phase in Godfey First Phase, Hit and Run won't work due to the shockwaves nor distacing. Bait a large combo then chuck an arrow. You need to chose where you'll dodge or when to release the arrow. You can also use the Arrow Hail to damage him always but the damage and consistency drops due to needing Flasks and Arrows. Honestly haven't fought Radagon with bows yet, but Elden Beast is the easiest one among the late game bosses for Greatbows along with Placudisax. Probably the biggest hurdle is Radagon, can't help you there yet, unless he can't knock off arrows or have a god dodging ability whenever you chuck your arrows at him. At his second phase just bait his 3hit AoE or some of his combos as you distance yourself. His teleport is easily telegraphed and has a short range so its also a pick to bait and hit.
@@samueltok9130 Bait specific attacks for Malenia, find an attack you can bait mid range to use or use Ultra Sniping Hit and Run, though her dodges are insane so AoW might be the only thing that can consistently damage her in the first phase but Flasks and Arrows will cost a lot, second phase is much easier due to the fact she will fly to be idle for some attacks in which 1 arrow can fly in per combo.
I love the skeletal mask+Raptors Black Feathers combo. It's cool as fuck! I also used Night Cavalry Gauntlets since they're black with nails. Fits the death bird theme. I couldn't find any pants that are my ideal so I just used the Black Knife Greaves. Still look super cool!
Just so you know:Short bows have roll,sprint and jump attacks.So you could've just done 1 jump attack,land,shoot and repeat.It was faster for me than the barrage skill but idk you do you
FYI - the Purifying Crystal Tear you can get for your physick flask that will make you immune to that phase change damage during the Mohg fight. Also he has a shackle that will affect him found in the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds.
First video I've watched from you, you just popped up in my recommended feed (lots of Elden Ring Stuff there now lol). Super funny video! And definitely gonna use some your tips to up my bow and arrow game.
ohh I thought you would use the rain of arrows attack - makes some easy fights for big enemies (mohg, dragonlord, etc) would‘ve loved to see your full malenia bow only - i‘m having a hard time with her

The composite bow is a shortbow... this means it has the best moveset (ie quick fire from jump attacks, and quick fire from rolls) and can be fired from full gallop on torrent without slowing down. The black bow, has longbow damage and range with shortbow quickfire from jumps and rolls, PLUS it has access to barrage and is only worse then the composite bow in terms of horseback utility as using it on torrent will slow you down. Mighty shot is certainly a strong ability, but barrage has better dps at a fraction of the fp cost. And enchanted shot is arguably more useful then mighty shot. Until you get access to the capitol, however, the shortbow is your best option in terms of moveset.
3: You can get immediate access to mt gelmir without fighting any bosses by sprinting through fort faroth for the medallion half, and using the ladder. The bats wont be able to aggro or kill you in time, so as long as your'e fastish, so its not pixel perfect routing. The other half is in fort haight, but the blood knight isnt hard to kill with a shortbow so.... your choice, really.
4: You can get 1-9 somber stones before fighting ANY bosses, so long as you have a modicum of skill at jumping. Funnily enough, though, without wrong warps or skips there is only the 1 somber stone 7, but a handful of 8s or 9s.
5: You need, need NEED access to the mohgwyn crow farm as soon as possible, purely to make arrow farming efficient. I also recommend killing all the special arrow vendors (you can keep Kale alive, since most vendors sell base arrows), and also killing the Bell Bearing Hunter at the warmasters shack at night for the bone bell bearing. Doing this expedites your ability to accrue arrows.
6: If you dont want to bleed everything to death (which is less efficient because arcane doesnt effect arrow status buildup), fire arrows are the least resisted damage arrow in the game and have some solid damage. There are similar options for damage, but its best to look up boss weaknesses and choose the element arrow of choice.
7: Poison arrows suck dig bick. Your better off locating the rotbone arrows, and spending time chasing butterflies in the swamp. The ONLY time I would recommend poison arrows at all, is if you use the Serpent Bow against my recommendations. Serpent bow with poison arrows, unimproved (even with its broken arcane scaling which DOESNT WORK, btw) can two hit poison things, one hit if you use its mighty shot due to its unique interactions with poison infused arrows. Serpent bow is good for poison, and nothing else. And arguably, its not even worth it because you can just get similar results with the pulley bow, without the restrictions.
8:You will want to use a defensive talisman. I would recommend either the green turtle talisman if you trust your dodges, because of how stamina hungry short bows and the black bow can be, or doing some parkour at the bestial sanctum to get the dragoncrest talisman.
Woah this is like an essay but it’s super helpful, thank you for putting in the work for this comment!
I tried with the crest for fp reduction on my blackbow and it didnt reduce the cost to 1, since it round up and 25% of 2 doesnt drop it below 1.5
FP Red don't help though due to the FP cost literally too low to work with it, just use it for the stamina boosting one for the rolls and bow action.
@@Milenos ah well thanks for the clarification, I just assumed. 2 fp is still cheap, though.
@@Milenos fixed the comment, I know its long but I figured since I got this based on the algorithm, others will as well. So better to post here.
I can't believe you did a whole bow run without using the main bow mechanic of JUMP SHOT.
It's the fastest attack you can do with a bow, and one of the bows can even get a quick shot after landing too
What a madlad
Drinking water while watching this is a risky endeavor indeed
I just recently found your channel and let me just say I'm very impressed with your commitment to sticking it out and completing these crazy runs and making the videos funny and enjoyable to watch throughout. You're awesome man, keep up the good work and I'll keep watching for sure
🌽 DO YOU LIKE CORN sorry fine gentleman I meant do you take pleasure in consumption of zea mays?
Just as a tip: You can unequip every weapon and armor before you fight the mimic. That way he copies you with no weapons and no armor. Then just equip your build and have fun.
That’s no fun, I use it to test builds and weapons…
Having the mimic be a caster was sick as fuck. It was rennala 2.0 for me xD
i see everyone do this and i just dont understand it. i love the idea of the boss mimicking the player exactly. just wish it had more hp or also had similar amounts of heals as the player
@@svartrbrisingr6141 apparently Mimic year is still top 3 in Summons , making it same hp as players easily makes it #1 and makes the game a lot easier
@@johnlsmjas9192 they're talking about the boss, not the summon.
Something I've been wanting to see from you is if you can beat the game with only Frenzied Flame incantations, I feel like working around/with the madness effect and using those kinds of incantations would be interesting to see ☺️
The comedy this man spits out, reminds me of why I like the internet.
50 hours deep into my first play through on any dark souls game “bow only” and this is the video I’ve been looking for 🔥
This is a certified hood classic
This video made me laugh so much more than any other gaming video out there. Major props my guy, please keep pushing out this content
Hilarious video. Your monotonous tone + the dry jokes create a cocktail of cheeky humor that is hilarious for both gamers and non-gamers alike. Keep up the uploads man and feel free to make them more frequent and shorter with more content.
The commentary at 2:21 perfectly fit the sped up waddle of the magma wyrm. I laughed so hard.
The amount of comedy in this vid is golden. Love it
The no audio version had powerful vibes where it was just silence then the news that Ricky stole ur gal and left u with nothing but elden ring
Just became the 70th thousand subscriber, I’m not sure why but I feel incredibly proud
when I wanted another Eldin Ring video he came through in the best way
Turdburglar…Breaking out a classic!
I am happy to admit that I have never been killed while knocked off of my horse in elden ring
I genuinely enjoy ur content sm, keep it up dude
This actually makes me want to do a bow only run
I’m going to guess Drizzt. Nice run, could have made it much easier for yourself with a pulley, composite or black bow and run an easy route for upgrades. But I’m guessing you wanted the challenge so I respect that.
Its beem YEARS since ive played a baldurs gate or dnd game, and that is immediatly who i went to when i seen the character lmao. Such a dope throwback
that's all that came to mind too, but I thought he was going for class theme too, and drizzt doesn't really use a bow from what I recall
Drizzt was my first guess but I remember him having purple eyes, or at least he does in the R.A. Salvatore books, can't say for any games since I haven't played them
@@furiousnoodles9857 yeah, he was the only drow to have purple eyes, iirc it's why he isn't blinded by sunlight
Bro, I read that series when I was like ten. It's been so long.
Subscribed because of all the amazing references to media I've seen in the past i.e. deathnote. Great content my man
19:20 when you mentioned this I thought you were gonna mention how the demon firesage of DS1 is weak to fire
Tye: "Crossbows are for weak people"
Me with two pulley crossbows: "Ah yes, very true"
Hey Tye , if you follow Yura's questline and beat elenora.. you get a tear that you can add to flask which makes you immune to the NIHIL NIHIL attack of morgh
You dont have to follow yura's quest
Just wanna say even though it’s to late that jumping then shooting is faster than standing and shooting with longbow (only done it with longbow Idk about shortbow) just thought I’d mention it for anyone else who wants to try this themselves
Faster with the Shortbow, also has more faster to auto.
there is actually a tear for your wonderous physick flask that disables that ting mohg does in the middle of the fight.
Dude. You're getting views that is literally 8 times your subscribers. You are most definitely doing great work!
This is amazing and hilarious! Keep up the good work, I love your style.
I absolutely love your videos, excited to watch this one.
You can get to Rykard without doing any of the assassinations. There's an illusory wall in one of the rooms that the Drawing Room Key opens that sets you on the path to Rykard.
dude im a recent subscriber and just found out about you, but ive literally watched every single one of your videos because you are a freaking funny, genuine dude. you remind me of my friend and how we played all the souls games and like just having fun, thanks for the videos man youre the bomb
this guy should be way more popular, hes got the formula down and makes really fun challenges
Can you beat Elden Ring as SpongeBob only using the bubble wand? Also you're Shadow Obama.
I ran a bow against Rennala as well, and im glad im not the only one who had a tough time with it 😁 Radahn on the other hand fell hard because of all the summons i kept calling
if you want a rematch with mohg, the second church of marika in altus plateau gives you a physick that significantly reduces his phase 2 attack and also lets you power through it
also if she left you for ricky she didn't deserve you
Dude, I just found you like 2 days ago, and wowie, that's a huge growth! Congrats man, loving your vids!
Always liked From Soft for letting me make my character look like a DnD Drow.
Charlie is an absolute lad, Neil Armstrongs got nothing on my man
I wonder how he's going with the consumables only challenge.
I think Pts only could be doable. Some of them are pretty dope. I'd run a faith build with support spells and use the pots that scale with faith for damage.
12 Pots with Good FTH and INT using just Fire Pots in which has the least amount of Resistance moat bosses have can demolish them. It's actually strong and the fact that you can just craft on the fly is nuts and only impeded by mats which can be farmed or picked up mostly.
That's not including the obscene amount of physical throwable consumables which some scales to DEX and INT which makes Larval Tear very useful.
Fact that you can sell boss souls or item loots for some sold consumables also helps the run.
Though Pot Build requires setup like the Pot Head Helm and Proper Talismans.
th-cam.com/video/LWdkDSPUTrY/w-d-xo.html🙏
Uh oh, I think he took the consumable video down
Hell yes this question has been stuck in my head for a few days now and I was considering doing a bow only run in NG+, thank you senpai! 🙌
th-cam.com/video/camGwP_5yHA/w-d-xo.html
in NG+ is possible. on first run its bloody harsh.
I’m lookin at this video and I’m so happy you got almost a million and a half views. Congrats
Rain of arrows or even the bow you get from radahn's rememberance in combination with radahn's spear arrows would help you out so much I think. Nevertheless, amazing video, sir!!
Something to also possibly add into your runs is the Raptor's Black Feathers, it gives you a 10% damage increase to jump attack. You can jump attack with bows I believe, correct me if I'm wrong tho.
Raptor's Black Feathers is located behind an illusionary wall in the Sages Cave near the Altus Plateau. The White Mask, located in Mohgwyn Dynasty Mausoleum after killing a white mask invader, raises attack power when something nearby (wearer included) suffers from Blood Loss (10% Damage, 20 secs). I believe it also stacks with the Lord of Blood's Exultation talisman for an additional 20% damage for 20 secs. That's 40% additional damage under the right circumstances.
The Albinauric Bow, dropped by Albinauric Wolfback Archers around the Consecrated Snowfield, can be infused with ash of war, so I believe you can add frost to it for 20% damage boost to your bloodloss spike. Put barrage on that boy, if you can (haven't tested), and you'll pop these boys.
The Hammer Talisman gives a 20% buff to stamina-reducing attacks, does this apply to frostbite which reduces stamina recovery? Frostbite: Deals damage and lowers target's damage absorption by 20% and stamina recovery.
Talisman #1: Arrow's Sting Talisman - 10%
Talisman #2: Lord of Blood's Exultation - 20%
Talisman #3: Hammer Talisman - 20%
Talisman #4: Rotten Winged Sword Insignia: 13% at max tier.
Albinauric Bow - Frostbite: 20%
Raptor's Black Feathers: 10%
White Mask: 10%
Total: 103% additional damage under right conditions.
It’s dark link
Been binge watching a lot of your videos the last few days and gotta say you're funny as fuck 🤣 I love the creativity of the challenges and you high key be doin great with them, even if your cheeks gettin clapped 1000 times lmao. Got a sub from me lookin forward to your future content man! 🙌
probably the funniest eldin ring playerr ive ever watched
“I was simply taking a knee for all are first responders” I see you are cultured my boy
"Cross bow are for people with a weak bloodline."
What about the Hand Ballista?
Been using bows a lot myself, and I tend to use rain of arrows against larger enemies... works really well!
"Crossbows are only for people with a weak bloodline" xD
Also, I bet Radahn's bow goes crazy in this
Until Leyndell greatbow only run is easy, after that? Pain upon tons of pain
Greatbows are a different pain on their own for some reason than other bows. Probably because they are slow as heck even if the damage is good in which is bad for small bosses like Crucible Knights or Ulcerated Tree Spirit though if only focusing on Main Bosses then from Malekith up to Radagon is heavily a problem.
Not for Elden Beast though surprisingly due to the amount of time spent of the Boss circling around for positioning and delayed attacks that gives the player time to shoot 1 arrow without danger.
@@bismarckimperia8781 I know, I really know, I am on Malenia try n. 157 and cannot get her to 2nd phase, if you have any tips let me know because right now it seems after morgott it is impossible to do it greatbow only, btw golem greatbow +10 lvl 85 damage to boss health bar only with greatbow no summons, without exploits of AI, it is as of right now after 2 weeks of trying impossible to do all remembrances, speedrun is any%greatbow only possible but right now I can't do it non glitch
@@samueltok9130 Malekith is possible for this run. His first phase is too slow for quick movement so getting the farthest and sniping him once then running to the farthest corner again and shooting him once until his second phase which repeats the process. Much more safer as he can possibly idle for 2-3 seconds due to you being maximum bow range before running at you. Though its like playing using a GS by using hit and run tactics but the ultra sniping version.
He is possible for GB. Same for Fire Giant but just takes so goddamn long. Malekith Ultra Sniping Hit and Run tactic is useful for FG due to his slow ass Fire Balls of Doom, easier in the second phase but just too long. Though aim for the weak spots for a much more bonus damage.
Just spam the AoW for Gideon, don't get in his range.
Mogh is easy just bait his specific aerial dive in the second phase or use Ultra Sniping Hit and Run.
Due to his semi-second phase in Godfey First Phase, Hit and Run won't work due to the shockwaves nor distacing. Bait a large combo then chuck an arrow. You need to chose where you'll dodge or when to release the arrow. You can also use the Arrow Hail to damage him always but the damage and consistency drops due to needing Flasks and Arrows.
Honestly haven't fought Radagon with bows yet, but Elden Beast is the easiest one among the late game bosses for Greatbows along with Placudisax.
Probably the biggest hurdle is Radagon, can't help you there yet, unless he can't knock off arrows or have a god dodging ability whenever you chuck your arrows at him.
At his second phase just bait his 3hit AoE or some of his combos as you distance yourself.
His teleport is easily telegraphed and has a short range so its also a pick to bait and hit.
@@samueltok9130 Bait specific attacks for Malenia, find an attack you can bait mid range to use or use Ultra Sniping Hit and Run, though her dodges are insane so AoW might be the only thing that can consistently damage her in the first phase but Flasks and Arrows will cost a lot, second phase is much easier due to the fact she will fly to be idle for some attacks in which 1 arrow can fly in per combo.

*Genghis Kahn Smiles and Nods with a Single Tear of Pride Running Down His Face*
I love your sense of humor
Me and all my homies hate Ricky.
Great vid dude!
I love the skeletal mask+Raptors Black Feathers combo. It's cool as fuck! I also used Night Cavalry Gauntlets since they're black with nails. Fits the death bird theme. I couldn't find any pants that are my ideal so I just used the Black Knife Greaves. Still look super cool!
Just so you know:Short bows have roll,sprint and jump attacks.So you could've just done 1 jump attack,land,shoot and repeat.It was faster for me than the barrage skill but idk you do you
The monotone delivery was just perfect
The commentary on this video was great. I got a good laugh out of it.
Cute dog👍
Great video man! I love the content, great balance of memes, struggle, and storytelling. Looking forward to the next one!
FYI - the Purifying Crystal Tear you can get for your physick flask that will make you immune to that phase change damage during the Mohg fight. Also he has a shackle that will affect him found in the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds.
Yo you’re videos are literally hella cool and the jokes and comedy alone are worth watching
seriously though your funny af and I'm glad i found your channel randomly in my recommended
Really enjoyed the commentary, subscribed can’t wait for more videos
"I have the memory of a stoned goldfish" I gotta use that one.
First video I've watched from you, you just popped up in my recommended feed (lots of Elden Ring Stuff there now lol). Super funny video! And definitely gonna use some your tips to up my bow and arrow game.
Definitely gonna try a bow build next!
i love how he beats Malenia, really nice tactics!
just now realized that in the second faze of morgott the arena gets flooded with diarrhea water
15:24 loooool i knew wasnt trippin, when you first said it earlier in the video i was like wtf is this guy talking about? lmfaooooo
ohh I thought you would use the rain of arrows attack - makes some easy fights for big enemies (mohg, dragonlord, etc) would‘ve loved to see your full malenia bow only - i‘m having a hard time with her
holy shit its been less than a month watching you fly from 2k to 55k god damn. have fun w it
Your narration is hilarious lol
"When he finally sobered up" 🤣🤣
