i love this idea! i always thought of how cool it’d be if these games had roguelike elements since there are so many soulslike rouglikes. now i want this as an actual game mode
Mohg, Warrior, Radagon of Radagon I love randomizer boss names so much, although my favourite one that I’ve ever seen was “Necromancer Fire ‘Gary’ Garris”
EDIT: @13:40 woooooooooooooooooooooooooow lmao. Also, some of the deaths were painful in this one, I feel your agony, Chris. EDIT2: also, I agree that the scaling is CRAZY in the fog gate rando right now. The most fun Dungeon Crawl config that I've done so far is: -Item/enemy randomizer -ALL fog gates included -0 runes required to fight the final boss This way what you get is, essentially, a big ass labyrinth where you need to find the exit. It's cool cause you rarely need to think about going back somewhere, unless you find a deadend. You just keep going and going and going until you find the "exit". Plus, it's fun cause it includes caves, catacombs etc., which you rarely see in these rando videos.
GGs on the run, I was thinking of recommending this unmodded for another streamer. Well, similar; Adding the randomization and deathless makes it a lot more roguelike themed which is cool. The idea would be that you unlock upgrades every time you beat a boss (maybe only major boss). I was thinking a unique upgrade per major boss, and repetitive stuff for regular bosses. So maybe every regular boss = 1 level up unlocked, every remembrance boss and shardbearer unlock a mechanic (crafting, various weapons types (1 per major boss, including staves/seals/bows?), buffing spells/AOW, fast travel, torrent, various attack types (start with R1 only, unlock heavy attacks and jumping attacks later), weapon levels, talisman pouches, memory stones, etc. Kinda like the base game rewards you for killing bosses, but this disallows using the open world to just set up a really strong character before fighting stuff. Wasn't sure how to pace it; if you pick one upgrade per boss, or pick multiple upgrades for harder bosses, or upgrades unlock in order based on the number and type of bosses killed or unique mechanics are tied to specific bosses based on theme. Radahn would unlock armor, and heavy weapons for example, whereas Gideon unlocks attacking spells. DTS unlocks Torrent, Mohg unlocks status effects, Moose unlocks healing, that kinda thing. upgrades are randomized like items, etc
Yeah I think there is tons of potential to expand on this idea/go a different route for it; the fog gate rando provides tons of neat opportunities for challenge runs like this
Using the riposte animation to speed up fights was an interesting idea. I like, though can also be a bit jarring sometimes seeing the environment around the riposte suddenly change.
How did this work? Was it room->boss->room, or did you unlock rooms to explore after every boss? Either way I need to try this out myself, I'm always one for boss rushes
It's completely random lol. Sometimes I'd start with a boss fight, sometimes I'd start with a legacy dungeon and it would take a while to even find 1 boss
Yeah sometimes in these randos when he replaces an enemy that has a fast patrol/running path, he'll do that lmao. He actually sometimes does it when fighting him normally, although it's super rare
I have 800 hours in this game, and beyond the first 50 or so my skills actually havent improved. I've gotten more experience, but never practiced a boss moveset or weapon moveset. Anyone else?
Yeah there's a big difference of putting time into a game casually and putting time into a game where you're actively trying to learn and improve through speedruns and whatnot
Hey Chris got a challenge for you I want you to beat elden ring with the weakest and weirdest weapon you can find without touching any GRACE THE GRACE IS OFF LIMITS SO NO LVLS BUT U CAN CHEAT IN TORRENT SO YEAH you think you could beat it
yeah sometimes when he gets put into boss that have a scripted path like that he'll start running lol. He like rarely ever does that animation, so it's always funny to see
18:44 OK, how the hell is he able to dodge this attack consistently? He literally just walked into that boss room and dodged that absurdly fast attack without breaking a sweat. What is this guy's trick to consistently (almost) no-hitting bosses?
@@star0chris Thanks, you seem prepared for almost every possible situation lol. Also, do you have a controls setup for instant rolls? I use Steam input and set B to a 'start press'.
@@thenodger7607 well rolling does have a few startup frames where you aren't invincible yet, so you do have to anticipate the attack/roll in advanced already. Also I'm probably not gonna mess with my settings like that at all because it would just mess up my tons of hours of muscle memory lol
@@star0chris When's No item No vigor No endurance No mind No consumable No weapon No fist No walking No torrent No running and No jump coming out?????
Unfortunately no it does not, I imagine it's way too complicated to get that setup lol. TheFifthMatt (the mod maker) could always add it later, but I imagine he probably won't since it's so complicated
I used my last bit of mana to use a potential bewitching branch on the summons. Otherwise it would have been much worse to have to deal with the summons, but honestly not that bad since the arena is really big
I called it a roguelike because It's a randomly generated dungeon crawl each run, as well as some other rules like no dying, which is similar to a roguelike :)
When you played the Mario scream I got the idea that you should give yourself lives every like 100k runes. Just raise the amount to make it harder if that’s too easy for Elden Chad such as yourself but I think it would have made this much more fun.
At first I was doing this at rune level 1 only, but if I used a cracked twig/had it equipped before I died then I get another life, but that was just a bit too hard/tedious for my liking and so I let myself level by 5 every boss and took away the extra lives thing since it would have been a bit too easy, although I do like that idea and think it fits well with this challenge
Don't get me wrong, I'll try my best, but also I'm not gonna practice or force myself to do things that aren't fun for me lol. Bingo isn't a super serious thing anyway, it's not like it's EVO grand finals for a fighting game
@@star0chris I dont mean this in a hate way at all, but the overuse of cuts, and some are straight into action, no build up or anything, i had to learn from a comment that it wasnt just a boss after boss after boss and that it had normal rooms too (it could have been said in the video and i missed it, but we didnt see much of the rooms) its fastly delivered but its also a bit messy, at least in my opinion.
@@tommyman1047 yeah I generally agree with what you're saying, and the whole showing the overall process more before maybe then jumping into more highlights for successive runs was something I had written down for future fog gate rando stuff, cause yeah it's kinda tricky to edit properly without letting the video be like 3 hours long
@@star0chris I generally like getting attached to the "runs" the streamers are going for, like getting attached to what drops and what the level ups are and stuff. But yeah i can imagine trying to find a balance between what to show and how long it is to be pretty hard, thanks for hearing out the feedback and engaging. Found you out from this video and will stick around.

Mohg, Warrior, Radagon of Radagon
I love randomizer boss names so much, although my favourite one that I’ve ever seen was “Necromancer Fire ‘Gary’ Garris”
My favourite is and will always be "Mohg, Knight of the Haligtree"
Don't forget "Fortissax-Devouring serpent" and "Morgott, First Elden Lord"
dont forget the giant ball of radagon
I found mad Gary Garris once. Funniest shit
Radagon of Radagon, his own master
Selling Godrick's great rune for 1500 runes? Dang, he must be *really* hungry
That Margit and Mohg fight was cool in concept. Like you fight Morgott, beat him then Mohg shows up like fine..I'll finish it myself
23:13 - Turned into Kingseeker Frampt 😂
Radagon of Radagon is the same as a someone named Foreman being a foreman
EDIT: @13:40 woooooooooooooooooooooooooow lmao. Also, some of the deaths were painful in this one, I feel your agony, Chris.
EDIT2: also, I agree that the scaling is CRAZY in the fog gate rando right now.

Love your vids Chris! I try to watch every single one when they come out.
i love how he didnt have any reaction at the sudden appearance of malenia at 30:46 cuz thats how one of his earlier rounds ended
Volcano manor in attempt 12 looked like chaos😂 and amazing gameplay 😀
Really cool Chris, gonna watch it now, thank you.
editing on this video is turbo cranked. good job and great vid :)
1:26 you can jump that... Oh my god man...
Insane challenge run, fun to watch. Cheers from Germany
11:33 This Is Just too funny to me
Your randomizer really likes to put Malania in the god skin duo arena. Like the 2nd time I've seen her there lol.
I've seen a couple of these and I always enjoy them. Glad to see you do it as well

Ahh yes my favourite thing to do in elden ring spanking Godfrey (35:27)
23:07 even i wanted to bash my head to a wall. I feel your pain😖
Roguelike Malenia just loves that Godskin Duo room for some reason.
Ah yes, Radagon the Radagon, my favorite.
this is such a cool challenge idea actually
So good such a good video just like always
This seems like a fun way to learn the boss fights.
This run hurt's the soul...
Love this content
great idea, just wanted to say love content like keep it going
19:23 literally like 5 centimeters from instadeath
The amount of Godskin Malenia's is incredible 😂
Using the riposte animation to speed up fights was an interesting idea. I like, though can also be a bit jarring sometimes seeing the environment around the riposte suddenly change.
Quick tip for Godskin duo in randomizers, go for the skinny first, the fat one's rollout is almost impossible to dodge
Attempt #9 is TRAGIC 😭 that Deathblight
this is such a neat idea, great content

HOW CAN YOU 1UP EVERY VIDEO? like everytime i think you have peaked you just make another great one, teach me please.
3:00 your too good lol
The most satisfying part of fighting Leonines is when you end them
40:19 the sync
Radagon of radagon is just hilarious.
It's basically guaranteed you'll die when tons of enemies have one shot capabilities. Congrats.
Best ER challenge run so far.
Malenia is chilling in the Godskin duo area for three runs
And each of them has a random chance being there lol
Valiant Gargoyle (Twinblade), Lord of Blood
19:24 There’s no way those enemies didn’t preplan before that.
guys pleas 80 more subs are all we need to see him in huge pain lol
"Chris dead inside" series lol
Your title didnt lie. I exoected chaos and i got chaos. 3:29
Killing mohg with a torch is insane ngl. Hats off to you. Id just quit.
I'm actually pissed that TH-cam has not suggested this to me till just now 😑
27:34 i love how the counter to "impeccable magic skill, worth to be called all-knowing" is... bonk.
20:12 What area is that boss fight in the dark ? 🤔 Reminds me of the legendary Four Kings Boss in DS
The Fell Omen Twins boss fight before the Divine tower in the capital (Morgott/Mohg's Great Rune tower)
Leonine the true final boss pog
Malenia chilling in Farum-Azula
ayo nice run! What are you using to track everything for great runes etc?
Using this tracker made by Voiderling, it's awesome: thevoiderling.itch.io/elden-ring-key-item-tracker
