I think Boo Biscuits blocking enemy heals is a byproduct of it stopping the Bros from receiving regeneration from their own gear, possibly so that you can't just cheese a lot of free healing. The programmers must have made it so that when the Bros are under the Biscuit's effect, the "regeneration step" of combat gets completely skipped, but they didn't account for the fact some enemies like Pipegunk also have a regen tick. Same reason it stops damage from the Overcharge plug or the On Fire status effects.
Also I didn't overlevel or super-spec Luigi in Defense in my run and it's just hilarious to see him take next to no damage from attacks like Bowser's minion rush or Zokket's boomerang
I always love defensive strategies like that. There's something so satisfying about surviving everything an enemy tries to do without doing anything yourself
I think it's pretty fitting that you're only required to do one action command of each type (regular, counter, bros, minigame, luigi logic) to beat it. A lot more satisfying than having to a bunch of a certain type.
Fun fact, spirited item boosts aren't random, they depend on the item used. -Mushrooms and nuts give defense -1ups, herbs and ampberries give speed -Syrups give attack -And candies give stache In my no equipment run, syrups giving attack was very important, especially when the fight with Reclusa was 2 hours long because Weeping Core has crazy defense. Also great job on the video! I love how differntly the game needs to be approached without its main mechanic. Doing stuff like wasting turns with boo buscuits and crafting exodia makes me think of making builds in Bug Fables.
@BarelyAlec Oh, and another thing, you get a higher boost percentage if you use a higher tier item. Regular Syrup gives 10% attack, max syrup gives 25% attack.
26:40 The sharpcask experience, as I’ve dubbed it. The sharpcask fight is the hardest fight I’ve done in any challenge run for some reason. I am doing a no gear / no side quest / no grinding challenge run, and because of no side quests or grinding, I was relatively underleveled. The fight took 7 hours over the span of 2 days, I literally had to use so many red shells that I was on the break of getting carpal tunnel in my hands. Each red shell did 25 damage (50 when critical hits), and I didn’t even use green shells, they only did 12 💀. I was too strong willed (prideful) to use easy mode so I kept going, because of no gear, the boss did 100 damage per attack at least… DONT GET ME STARTED ON HOW HE HEALED 200 DAMAGE EVERY TIME HE ARMORED UP! I had to slowly chip away at his hp as he heals 99% of all the damage I dealt, and when I ran out of bp, it was over…, how I solved it is I used Luigi’s turns to either use a jump attack, or refresh Mario’s bp… and eventually, I hit the last red shell and killed sharpcask, I took a day long break from the challenge after the fight, I almost quit my challenge because I thought all bosses after this would be this hard, but no. All the other bosses are (relatively) easy peasy. I just beat the great conductor and glohm bowser (somewhat) easily. Not really sure why sharpcask is so hard for pretty much every challenge run player I’ve seen. But I’m still going strong, I’m about to find adaphne in jellyfish island. Thanks for this video so I can know I’m not alone. Lots of love and keep up the challenge runs! God bless.
Yeah, Sharpcask is such a painful in challenges! Congratulations on beating him in your challenge, that must have felt great to finally do! Good luck with the rest of yours
I really do love watching this no action command series, cause it does show me stuff I would have never known cause I always play games to own leisure, which is still fine honestly, nice video as always.👌💖
Alec the koopa patrol doesnt really spawn infinite koopas it just spawns a certain amount before letting you go I learned that the hard way and i was only 1 lvl bellow them with action commands
Speed gave more turns in paper jam but you had to be ridiculously faster than an enemy to actually get the extra turns and everyone always got an action before turn 2
I'm guessing it was his attack where his minions rush Mario and Luigi and then he punches a bro out of the fight. That's the attack that gave me the most trouble
You know, normally I would be wanting Wild West 3 Plants Only to be the next video after DLC no moving but because Alec pulled a funny with Luigi and the super nut in this video which gave me a good laugh, I'm feeling pretty good this time! BUT even with the good laugh I still won't give up on Wild West 3 Plants Only because I still want it and because of me it's gonna be the next video! Ehh... you know what forget that previous statement, that good laugh was just too good so I'm gonna call it this time for Wild West... oh well... it was fun making scenarios on what would happen if Wild West isn't the next video and trying to push for it to be the next video but sadly I'm running out of scenarios to make... you know what Alec, you should focus on the Left 4 Dead, after all it's not like Wild West will blow up considering looking at the Ancient Egypt and Pirate Seas video on how poor that video did, so... why don't you focus on the Left 4 Dead video, after all I've actually been looking forward to that video more than Wild West! I'm sure the zombies will understand and they won't try to find the Left 4 Dead Survivors or Maxwell and bite them to turn them into zombies ;)
Silly, Alec. This challenge ended before it even started, didn't you know booting the game up was an action command?
I should have remembered!
@@BarelyAlechehe haw haw you failed before you even began you were born to be doomed there was no hope of winning

That makes sense! Funny how it helped me in this challenge
Aren't they supposed to be used so you can learn to dodge? It would be mad annoying if bosses could heal while they are on effect

The reveal that boo biscuits save the run was incredible
Yeah, I love boo biscuits in this game
You'd think he'd do no dodging first, but NAAAAH, THIS BOYS CRAZY

Yeah, I thought that was interesting too! When I wrote out all the action commands it sounded cooler than saying we needed 5

Thanks! I love figuring out what all the missed action commands do
I like how this just turns mario&luigi into a traditional RPG
Yeah, it's funny that action commands are what I like about Mario RPGs, but getting rid of them makes it interesting too since you're not supposed to
Can you use action commands without beating Mario and Luigi brothership
@@AleclivesinOhio Huh. That's my next challenge
Alec the koopa patrol doesnt really spawn infinite koopas it just spawns a certain amount before letting you go
I learned that the hard way and i was only 1 lvl bellow them with action commands
Interesting! It would still be a tough fight without Auto Excellent, especially with Boo Biscuits recharging plugs less with more enemies on screen
Good vid, I’ve been really wanting to do this but also without gear and plugs, but I can dodge
Good luck if you do!
Brothership shines with its Plug mechanic, but it's pretty slow. Playing the game without action commands sounds like hell, lol
@rendumguy7596 The plugs made it fun, but before them, it was pretty rough
Speed gave more turns in paper jam but you had to be ridiculously faster than an enemy to actually get the extra turns and everyone always got an action before turn 2
Interesting!
Fantastic excellent you could even say
Saying that is against the rules of the challenge smh

Did you have a stroke?
@@gamersread2405 no he did not the letter he used is called thorn þ it is pronounced like th and from old english
@ “Can you Mario in Luigi and and action command” is the part I’m talking about.
I did a no dodge challenge and had to bend the rules for 1 bowser fight, I ponder how you are gonna win without any action command at all.
I'm guessing it was his attack where his minions rush Mario and Luigi and then he punches a bro out of the fight. That's the attack that gave me the most trouble
Yup. Since it was a blind playthrough I had no way of knowing there was uber busted accessories I could of used. So I had to use easy for him.
I would argue the Ten rematch action commands shouldn’t count, seeing as the fight is really more of a tutorial than anything else
@@declanhanrahan1759 I could see that. You can't do anything else there
I think you can beat Mario and Luigi: brothership without action commands
@@gabefornow750 Maybe...
@@BarelyAlec I’d say it was close enough considering that the only action commands required are the ones the game forces you to do
