200 hours is just getting your feet wet. Thousands of hours spent speed/challenge running and man I still find weird stuff every day. FromSoft just does it right.
23:41 big tip for the iron virgins, any weapon that does lightning damage will always stagger them after 5 hits. So you can get a dagger or something fast with lightning and stagger them, then swap to your main weapon to hit them while they are open (they can't be visceraled, but they take extra damage when staggered)
@@TheLegendaryEddy yessir! Dude the volcano manor is cool but Rykard is such a disappointing boss. He’s way too easy. If you go and level up the Serpent Hunter the fight takes like 3-4 mins for both phases
I remember on my pure strength playthrough with a colossal weapon I went to the noble guy properly leveled (or maybe even slightly under leveled) and he was easily the hardest boss in the base game for that entire run lol. But honestly that made me appreciate him and realize he's a really good boss. Also just wanted to say Volcano Manor is easily my 2nd fav legacy dungeon in the base game (there are some better in the DLC). It feels super fun to explore and the vibe is just amazing. The connectivity of the level too.
I stopped leveling STR ever since I reached Lyndell lol, and I switched up weapons hoping to challenge myself even more, I didn’t try to be OP but some how still ended up as such
@@TheLegendaryEddy Can't blame you tho. Yeah the weapons you're using may be OP but it's more so that you're exploring so much. Which is good ofc but the game is going to get harder from now on so it shouldn't be a problem.
Rykard was once a warrior of the golden order. But later he fought against it. He became kinda mad and made a deal with the great serpent to devour the gods together. He fed himself to the serpent and became Rykard the blasphemis one. He too was i child of Marika and Radagon, Brother to Radahn and Ranni. :) Really short version of what happened. I recommend Vaatys Videos on this. :D
Sorry about the corrupted hours, that honestly blows so much. I imagine it leaves some recording PTSD so you never know if something is broken while you're recording. However, you still managed to upload a banger 40 minute episode, so hats off to you! Looking forward to next episode already
I didn't post anything last time cuz there honestly wasn't much to say but here's the usual: Lore and Explanations: - Yeah, you messed up the questline. The last guy you were meant to kill was easily the coolest but hey it is what it is. At least you'll be able to meet Bernahl one more time later on. - The dragon you fought was the best buddy of the guy which you can see the defiled corpse of in the arena. He basically entered the dream so that he can save him but insetad of beating death/deathroot, he himself too got corrupted by it. Which is why he uses deathblight. Kind of reminds me of Artorias. - You can see Rykard in the opening cutscene feed himself to the serpent. He was eating strong warriors so that he can become strong enough to win the war with Leyndell. The "ghost" guy is one of his knights. Because of what he became, his knights created the serpent hunter to kill him and save their master's honor. That's why he asks you to "run him through". And he also comes out in 2nd phase because he realizes you're strong so if he eats you he will be able to achieve his goals. - 16:01 Nah not at all. It's actually bad and there's no reason to use it cuz it has a trash ash of war, mid stats and has poison but isn't infusable to scale with arcane. And in general strength is WAAAY better than dex. To the point where on my first playthrough I considered some bosses impossible (dex) but with strength killed them in 1-2 tries. Next area: Mountaintops of the Giants
Ngl I always look forward to reading your lore explanations 😂 Puts soo many things into perspective and helps me understanding what I am actually achieving lol. Thanks legend!
Fortissax is probably a she. Double S is for females and single S is for males I think. Females: Lansseax, Senessax, Florissax, Fortissax? Males: Gransax, Placidusax.
@@beast33G acting like the Elden Ring expert and telling others they know nothing is the most virgin thing I've ever seen anyone do. Don't take this as offense.
I also killed her ass lol she was pissing me off trynna hug me all the time like bruh tf do I look like Santa? Plus she kept taking health away from me like no bro leave me alone 😂 her questline isn’t worth it for me I only went back for the trophy.
Raging Wolf 🐺 has the Godslayers Great Sword 🗡️. Its an amazing weapon. The sword can be Acquired from the Devine tower of Caelid. You may already have it in your stash, Ice Borne Killer 🧊 🔨 🪦
Idk why you didnt try but the serpent hunter also has heavy jump attacks, and they do massive poise dmg and much faster than the charged atks.... The best thing to do though is to get another great spear, like the lance, and do crouched R1s. It does super fast like quick shot attacks.
Not sure if someone has told you before but some of the ashes of war allow for a second follow up attack if you hit the trigger again. And some other ones have a follow up heavy attack if you hit the heavy attack button after using the ash of war. For example the great serpent hunter had a second ash of war attack if you hit the trigger again. Just wanted to tell you cuz I know you could put together some badass combos Edit: if I just kept watching I would see you figure it out for yourself lol keep up the legendary work bro
@@TheLegendaryEddythere are 2 separate quest lines, the serpent girl's quest is independent of the contracts. The contracts aren't possible to finish but you didn't really miss anything, the main reward for that quest is a teleport to rykard
Yo also one more thing. Remember to use the pure blood medalion Varre gave you. Yes, ik, he said to not use it yet, but there will never be a "yet". Like seriously, the next thing is doing the exact opposite of what he told you. So yeah just remember to do it as it's really really important. I don't wanna spoil but you won't be disappointed.
@@TheLegendaryEddy Honestly? At this point you're late game enough for it to not matter much. But imo use the medallion first since the place it sends you to is very short.
I actually stopped leveling STR and Vigor when I reached Lyndell. Just been leveling Endurance and some Mind but spend most my rubes on Weil on upgrading materials
i would like to remind you NOT to do "the thing" on the giant's forge, might as well never go there until you do all you quests because a huge portion of them will basically be no longer accessible, stay well, and keep the great content up legend.
Damn seriously? That "woman" literally killed his twin brother in the most brutal way possible. And that guy was already half dead with many sicknesses and no she wasn't yet dead. I was cheering for him getting his revenge cuz I liked D meanwhile Fia was a weird necrophile (yes, literally) traitor. She was the reason for many of good NPCs deaths. If you'd just reload the area you'd find his stuff there. She also literally tried to kill you right before you got to her (Fia's champions).
I thought I could fix her lol. No but seriously the brother that got killed was the only chill person in that questline. His brother seemed like a crazed person, idk just rubbed me the wrong way lol. Awesome dragon fight tho
Yeah bro I wasn’t simping from the moment she said “share some of your vigor” when you first meet her. Like nah bro leave me and my boys alone. I killed her ass and locked myself out of the fortissax trophy during my first playthrough 😂
Eh maybe but almost everybody in elden ring is equal of a psycho, Even Radahn, make him out to be awesome but really he's a crazy warlord. And Rykard is easily the worst of them, so just because you hate the golden order doesn't mean anything. It's a souls game, after all.
Time for "the mountain top of the giants" after them you are ready to fight the hardest boss so pls read my comment thath i already wrote in a previous video so you know how to get there dont ask google or TH-cam they are probobly gonna spoil it. If you need more information i will tell you if you need, ty for posting great videos bye😊
Probobly didn't explain exactly how to get there. After you use the haligtree meddalion you need to finish a evergeal in thath area go through a portal thath will spawn there and then find and fight a minor boss the you need to find the final boss of thath area aka(the hardest BOOSS in the game) and there you go you did it😊 i realy tried not to spoil to much but i just realy want u to find it. Ty bye
Yea I definitely was. I don’t really lose my runes, if I die I more often then not recover them. Funny enough I stopped leveling up STR and Vigor when I reached Lyndell
Unfortunately, prytor rykard shouldn't be killed right away because you're gonna miss a lot of item 😅 and if you do so every npc in the manor will leave and you will lose a chance to get them and one more thing don't disrespect sweet little rya like that 😭 she just want to be loved
@@TheLegendaryEddy lol yup that was his first mistake. it funny because i just now realized i almost always use the armor from the vocano manor questlines. the scaled armor, bull goat pants (and gloves if i have enough endurance, scaled gloves if i dont) and whatever helmet i like the fashion of. great defense and poise, and they match together pretty well.
The dragon fights in elden ring are 100% dogshit. Bayle out of the DLC was the best one by far....because the dragon literally lays on his stomach kinda where his head is down low accessible to you the whole fight.
It was fun the first few times because being able to use a mount while fighting a dragon was new. But it honestly makes the fights way too easy. But dominant strat says to use the mount anyway cause why make it last longer lol
Even in my 200 hours in this game I still haven't explored everything, glad you're taking your time with this playthrough dude.
It’s insane how much there is to do

Lolllllll, you mimicking the voice of Rykard had me dying. Came for the play through; stayed for the comedy 🤣
His voice cracks me up 😂
Nothing like sitting at my work desk watching yt because there ain’t shit to do lol great timing
Fun fact, that guy you think has a cool armor set next to Tanith is a crucible knight!
Nice🔥 Easy money legend 😂

Aye you got Fortissax. For some reason on my first playthrough I oblige in Fia’s request and killed her, locking me out of fighting a remembrance boss
I just wanted to be held lol. But that Fortissax fight was intense!
I also killed her ass lol she was pissing me off trynna hug me all the time like bruh tf do I look like Santa? Plus she kept taking health away from me like no bro leave me alone 😂 her questline isn’t worth it for me I only went back for the trophy.
big dubs for the persona 3 music!!!
All persona songs are bangers 🔥
I really enjoyed watching this ❤
Thanks for watching legend!
Love your playthrough
Love the support legend💪🏼

Its an amazing weapon. The sword can be Acquired from the Devine tower of Caelid.

I’ve happily been part of the legendary family since episode 1 brothers
Happy to have you here legend 🔥💪🏼

I didnt even think of doing this, I usually am spamming jump attacks but the thought never came to mind with the serpent hunter
I just got home after an exhausting day to be surprised with a new video of the legend. God is in the details.
Hope you enjoyed it legend!
36:17 youll find out where the hand enemies come from in the dlc
Dam I thought for once I figured something out by myself 😂
Not sure if someone has told you before but some of the ashes of war allow for a second follow up attack if you hit the trigger again. And some other ones have a follow up heavy attack if you hit the heavy attack button after using the ash of war. For example the great serpent hunter had a second ash of war attack if you hit the trigger again. Just wanted to tell you cuz I know you could put together some badass combos
Edit: if I just kept watching I would see you figure it out for yourself lol keep up the legendary work bro
lol I was hyped to see that follow up attack
If you want to kill the lady bodyguard you can go back where you fought with rykard and attack her to summon him.
@41:05 They will agro you if you got back to Rykard's boss room. There you can kill Tanith and fight her Knight.
Ooh I wanted to fight that knight the entire time lol
You didn’t mess up the quest with the serpent girl she just moves to a spot in the lava area of the castle. It’s kinda weird to get to
I think I had like 1 more contract to fulfill in an area I haven’t been to yet. Oh well lol
@@TheLegendaryEddy yea that questline is confusing and all you get is a talisman that isn’t useful in my opinion
@@TheLegendaryEddythere are 2 separate quest lines, the serpent girl's quest is independent of the contracts. The contracts aren't possible to finish but you didn't really miss anything, the main reward for that quest is a teleport to rykard
The sword you just got from Rykard is the best in the game. It gives you health on every kill. Less flask use when exploring. Level it all the way up
Well, you need to trade the remembrance for the the sword
I already feel op lol I’ll use it for fun tho!
use backsteps instead of rolling in lava. it's way more faster and you don't gain status quicker thanks to that in other "area attractions"
Thanks for the tip, never even thought about using the backsteps, I'll try to remember this during active gameplay
Yo also one more thing. Remember to use the pure blood medalion Varre gave you. Yes, ik, he said to not use it yet, but there will never be a "yet". Like seriously, the next thing is doing the exact opposite of what he told you. So yeah just remember to do it as it's really really important. I don't wanna spoil but you won't be disappointed.
Nice! Do you recommend doing mountains first?
@@TheLegendaryEddy Honestly? At this point you're late game enough for it to not matter much. But imo use the medallion first since the place it sends you to is very short.
For sure use it asap. You won't enjoy the area if you are overleveled, aaaand..... mountaintops are kinda dissapointing anyway
I actually stopped leveling STR and Vigor when I reached Lyndell. Just been leveling Endurance and some Mind but spend most my rubes on Weil on upgrading materials
Bruuuh mad case of scoliosis is funny as fuuuck 😂😂😂 I spat out my drink at work 😅
😂
@ I’m so deadass man my workers thought I had died I was laughing so hard
With Rykard, you need to stay very close to him so he can't use those flame skulls on you
I just spammed L2 combo and he never got the chance to cast that attack the last run lol. Those skulls were scary tho
The Return of The Legend™
The Bert Kreischer joke 😂
Yessir 🔥🔥
The legend is back
And better than ever lol
If you are going with the to maces then you should grab the Claw talisman at stormveil bc it boost jump attacks.
I hope i helps😀
I forgot I had that! Good idea 🔥
The bull goat armor you got is the second best in the game
Happy Holidays!
Happy holidays legend!
I just hit my 2000th hour in this game, and I have yet to become bored by any of it.
Use lightning on those cursed machines with spinning blades of death and it'll stun them in a few hits
Great to know! Those are by far my least favorite enemies in the game
Are you planning to do the dlc next?
Hell yea l am
you have to play the dlc bro your super underrated i watched the first 3 ep thinking you had 1m subs your a great youtuber keep it up man
Oh the dlc is definitely coming right after the main game. Hopefully by then I can stream and record!
@ yay i’m so glad
i would like to remind you NOT to do "the thing" on the giant's forge, might as well never go there until you do all you quests because a huge portion of them will basically be no longer accessible, stay well, and keep the great content up legend.
27:42 Elden Ring is often referred to as Dark Souls II 2
Lmao that’s hilarious. I can see why in certain parts tho. Dark souls 2’s world is huge compared to the other games also.
u can put your lamp in the pockets for ez use like your steed
Wow never even thought of that. That’s smart lol. Thanks legend!

You should visit the bos room of rykard again
Banger.
Let’s go!
don't know if anyone suggested yet, you can try to run that blurry footage through some ai enhancing programs
Ive looked some up. They are expensive lol
You should use incantations it gives you buffs
I’ll need to look up which ones are good if I’m ever stuck on a boss!
My first playthrough was 350 hours . Please post it cause that falling star beast is a good fight cheers
Yea I’m gonna post it here bloated and share the link in a post so those who wanna watch it can!
you need to check out rykards weapon, its great
TOGETHAAAAAAAAAAAAA
