When and where do you stream, i wanna watch it sometime
And to have fun
My guess why the death rite bird dies is that there is a kill box in the air that supposed to kill you if you fall of the bridge instead of fall damage, and when the bird jumps there it just hits the kill box and dies
A likely explanation. Pretty interesting though.
The deathbird near castle sol does the same thing - if it jumps up it can get stuck on the cliff and die.
To my knowledge this bug applies not only to deathbirds but to large flying bosses in general. Have seen several cases with dragons when they got stuck in elevations and ended up killing themselves as well.
@@dimaudalow also the Night knight from weeping peninsula got stuck in the trees and just got wrecked in front of me
@@fjparasite1172 i wonder if bosses also get the same command as players do when they get stuck the game kills you after a certain amount of time to reset your character
I’m choosing to believe that the deathbird jumped into Raya Lucaria’s protective bubble (the one you need a key to get through) which instant killed it.
Uhhh, that actually sounds really plausible, ill choose to believe that as well
If Tibia's summons, summoned actual skeletons it would have been an amazing spell.
I decided to try it out in pvp and it’s not completely bad bc it did around 1.6k damage when all landed but what sucks is if theyre moving it’s not going to land so you can do a set up with Explosive Ghostflame and most people will back up and stay there till the fire goes away and that’s when you can do the Tibias Summons bc they won’t expect you to use that spell and it has decent range……..but in pve it’s really bad
Explosive flame was made stronger with more frost build up to all parts of the spell (feels slightly sped up?) but if you don't have Endure, more than likely you'll still be hit at start up
This is why I check spells myself rather then listening to cc’s. Ghost flame explosion was made much better and ancient death rancor was already better then above average pre1.07
I dont even listen to ccs haha
@@Generaluza1 that’s so true
A frozen deathmage sounds really cool tho
@@tototriceps what are CC's?
I like how the "Death Sorceries Only" run became an "Ancient Death Rancor Only" run.
Would´ve been nice to see the other Death sorceries, or at least Death´s Poker/Death Rite Spear.
Agreed, mistakes where made in this run... now i try to use all the spells in these runs!
For me the best thing about these videos is seeing what the TRUE potential of specific sorceries or items is in ER. Because you focus your build on just a few spells. Like magma sorceries for example. So not upgrading your staff takes that aspect away 😭
Hmm, i see youre point, but by not upgrading it you need to focus on different forms of power ups more. Tho i did upgrade them completely at the end anyways haha
he gave up and maxed a lusats, just to show hoe BAD the death sorcs really are!
To be fair, the Death sorceries don't really have a "best" staff option until late in the game. The Prince of Death's Staff (in theory, the best option) only surpasses other staffs with 50 Intelligence & 50 Faith (or if your stats are skewed, such as 75 Intelligence & 25 Faith -- as long as one is over 50). Even then, it's still far outclassed in terms of damage by Lusat's Staff if you have 80 Intelligence, which is far less demanding on your stats.
Given that Lusat's still takes some time to scale, the Meteorite Staff _is_ the optimal option for a good chunk of the game.
@@StrunDoNhor True but the prince of death staff will eventually outclass even Lusat's staff, with I think 70/70 or 80/80. But that's basically ng+
I think you should revisit this challenge, but use every death sorcery EXCEPT Ancient Death Rancor. See how yer strategies change
I legit started a death sorcery only run 2 days ago, didn't expect to see you make a video on it. Great video.
I found the run quite fun, hope you will enjoy it as well
@@tototriceps Just finished it an hour ago, Elden Beast was the biggest pain since it kept running away.
I did quite enjoy it, especially in the endgame.
@@EnderGearRay great job can you tell me your build and your damage output i want to be a death mage on ng plus :)
@@chadcheese7759 It was a lvl 150 build.
vig 60, mind 25, end 20, dex/str 20, int 45, fth, 30, arc 9.
I used godfrey and radagon icons, ancestral spirit horn and erdtree favor +2 talismans.
Prince of death staff.
I no longer have that character since i deleted him for a new one so i can't tell you the dmg sry, i hope the rest helped.
“That hurt my soul more than it hurt my body” thats the elden ring experience
The souls experience really haha
@@tototricepscouldn't agree more 🤣
Death sorceries are rather amazing now. Explosive Ghostflame has great damage, and even Tibia's Summons does good damage...if it lands.
I tested tibia summons... good f luck landing it haha
@@tototriceps I know right, but worth it when it does I feel. Like a cool combo would be to break poise with Ancient Death Rancor and then use Tibia's Summons.
@@TremeresRaspa It's still so slow that they may have enough time to just dodge roll it, Rosus summons is significantly better in nearly every way.
I know a lot of people didnt like how poise worked in ds1, but it was because of that poise that many spells in the game worked as well as they did. Ghostflame would have been far more efficient if you weren't interrupted just because an enemy breathed in your direction 🤷♂️
Great video btw :) new subscriber.
You can do to some degree in ER atleast :)
In my experience Fire Giant is infinitely easier if you’re *not* riding Torrent. Yes mounting and dismounting him gives you potential I-frames, but it’s definitely more finicky when compared to just dodge rolling.
Edit: To anyone who reads this, Im an avid mage player, so understanding the ebb and flow of fights is pretty much mandatory 😅
It’s just easier to roll through an attack rather than sprint around on torrent
Plus, you get Alexandre, who hits like a ceramic truck, though not really relevant for the video
@@tompreston2164 that’s- that’s literally what I said 🤔
@@morganpryde9125 I was corroberating the story with a personal anecdote
I'm not big on horse combat at all so I was on horse for a brief period of time my first fight. Didn't like It so got off and found it so much easier
Yea using torrent that much for fire giant is a huge handicap. I understand using it to gap close when he rolls around, but using torrent the whole fight without dismounting just makes dodging impossible.
Explosive ghostflame is underrated, I love that spell
I like it a bit in pvp, not so much in pve
I'm totaly love it...
Hi totaly love it…
Im dad
wtf hahaha
I’m too
I got that Deathbird glitch by accident during my playthrough. I was both glad and disappointed when it happened.
Its a cool glitch indeed
Same happened when I was going to fight red wolf of radagon. He did a leaping sword swing and got stuck on the globe and fell down and died on the first attempt…..
can't wait for the kalameet run to end
patience
The death rite bird dies at that spot because the game probably believes its over a long drop and automatically kills the boss by fall damage, similar to how when you jump off the back of the bestial sanctum and miss the roots
Thats what i am also guessing, but i havent found confirmation yet
"Explosive ghostflame is too weak"
Skill issue 😔
That deathbird glitch is from the "death zone" surrounding the bridge around Raya lucaria. Fall off the bridge, you die. Death bird touches the same area, dead.
1:23 probally already heard this but that specific area being right next to the bridge its probably a kill box so when it jumps there it just dies
Some guy check it out with cheat engine and yeah there is a kill box
Fun fact: The death bird dies due to the fact that there is a death barrier above. Its also why you die if you hit it from falling down. Most likely a oversight thing or just bad coding on boss half.
Great video, amusing and interesting, but rancorcall is excellent, pre and especially post patch. rancorcall is very fp efficient in pve, and in pvp it often does more damage because of how defense works.
In my ignorance i havent tested it, which i definetly should have, but glad you still like the video :)
I got that glitch with the death rite bird, but since the sun was rising when it happened i thought it was scripted to die to sunlight
Alot of poeple that the sunlight kill it apparently haha
I love the ancient death rancor. Although its damage isn’t that great, it’s range and absurd homing abilities make it great for attacking enemies while keeping a safe distance. Beat Malenia on my first try with my mage build using it alone.
Yeah the best thing is you can fire a bunch of them before the target even aggros on you.
1:13 I see a walkway up there so I think there's a death plane setup there to discourage the player from jumping down. The birb just manages to make it high enough to interact with it.
Probably, these glitches are just beautiful tho
The answer is that if any entity is in a falling animation for a set amount of time , it dies. The same occurs when the play jump attacks in certain places and dies.
I would have used the death staff as you was scaling in both faith and intelligence its the higest scaling staff in the game such a good staff and also very entertaining run
How fitting that the guy attempting this challenge, literally looks like Gigachad
xD
I know it's a pain to die to the suplex...
But there's something just so satisfying about watching it happen, especially when it's a one shot.
True haha
First video I seen from you and I loved it😂😂just pure vibe and funny. Subscribed
Thanks man :D
Your video is one of the reasons why I will do a death spell build for when the DLC comes out, amazing job dude !
Ancient death rancor is all you need that spell is so powerful. It’s been my favourite death sorcery throughout my whole run. Haven’t yet found the death explosion as I haven’t reached the area it’s in! Looking forward to it though. Nice video 👍
Glad you enjoyed it man :D
i really love every one of your videos. i’ve found you recently and your voice is awesome! makes your videos very easy to listen to
i hope to catch you streaming if you do
Glad you like them! :D
I do hope we get some better death sorceries in the DLC. They're really neat and it'd be cool to have actually viable death builds.
love the Chrono fair music at the beginning!
The bird touches abit of the bridge as it flies up and then falls off that bridge dying to fall damage
I think the ancient death ran or is really powerful. I haven’t tried it much but I’ve seen a lot of others using it to take down pvp or enemies. It’s impressive ❤❤❤
I hope in the DLC they add more death and maybe some rot sorceries.
More spells=more fun challenge runs
More Rot incantations would be lovely! Seeing more Black Flame, Blood, Frenzy, Beast, and many other categories being expanded with 2-4 new spells would be great.
Video was awesome, intro background music was a fun surprise lol was not expecting Chrono trigger/cross music for a soul's game
Glad you enjoyed!
The really funny thing about his usage of Lusat’s Staff, is that he lacked the stats for it, so he was doing significant damage even with it being neutered
He probably met the Int requirement but not the Strength requirement. Strength requirement only affects the bonk, so he was doing full damage with his spells.
Man, the spark of joy i get when i see a new upload. Unreal
:D
The deathbed hits the deathwall of the area above since when you jump off up there you die to fall it flies up and hits the death trigger
Thank you for blessing us with the Millennium Festival theme from Chrono-Trigger during this vid literally love you for that
I think the death rite bird knew he had to make this sacrifice to help his future lord ascend
Most definetly :D
the deathbird dies because of the fall killbox under the bridge next to where it died, the killbox serves to kill the player when falling before they hit the ground. it deals like infinite damage.
Cool stuff :-) looks like an interesting spell system they have. Lots of fun animations and graphics. I think the game designers were watching you and decided to make your life easier along the way with that patch 😊
I also think they did haha
Love the chrono trigger background music!!
The first glitch with the birb is becaus of coding the location numbers interact with the creature numbers
The value of placement is all numberd so that you cant fall out of the map or get randomly launched
When the birb lands the code of placement makes a vital error wich the system recognize as a simple solution delete the interfering code
The problem is that the auto deffence of the game doesnt corrects but deletes the entire code interacting with terain and becaus terain takes priority the birb gets deleted but becaus the entity gets deleted it acounts it as being slain to ensure that not everything from the game gets deleted
The amount of content in this game I didnt even know that the Ruin Strewn Precipice even existed and Im almost on NG+2 lmao
I think this run will be painful but it seems very interesting i might do like a necromancer so only death sorceries and Necromancer esc weapons like the grave scythe or death poker maybe a bonus challenge could be getting all of the deathroots and killing all deathbirds
You definetly can make something cool out of it!
The one time I’ve ever seen Tibia’s Summons being used is when a host summoned me for that one Erdtree Avatar in Calid near the Bestial Sanctum
Ive never seen them used haha
The death rite bird near the Academy probably triggers a deathbox for a falling down player. Maybe that's the reason
Title: Can you beat ER with Death sorceries?
Saw: Deathrite bird flashbacks
0:00 Nice to hear that Hollow Knight ost, really fits the vibe of the video
Exactly :D
a shame you didnt use the earlier death sorceries like the normal rancor
requires killing margit to reach it
@@BigHatLoganGaming yeah but still just hack it in and you got an okay spell for the beginning instead of one of the best spells in the game
@@ducc3031 as someone who uses all the hexes very often... ancient death rancor is p shit, sadly.
@@BigHatLoganGaming i mean thats why challenge runs exist, to use bad weapons or spells to overcome the odds
I am still figuering out my style of videos, in the future ill try to use each spell in the cathegory so i make a more interesting video for sure
Was this run performed before or after 1.08? All death sorceries where buffed in that patch (except for Fia’s mist)
As you can see from watching the video, the 1.07 patch was released near the end of the run. (1.08 doesn't exist. I assume that was a typo)
@@JerichoDeath his game probably already have the dlc, man from the future
Watch the video till the end :)
Love the jjba music in the background
they say the tree sentinal is still waiting to encounter the tarnish
I just beat NG+ with a death sorcery only build. ALL of the spells are good. In NG+, you can use the prince of death's staff which scales with Int and Faith and eventually get a sorcery scaling of like 450. Plus it boosts death sorceries.
9:18 I forgot his staff wasn’t even upgraded lmao
Very nice toto!!❤️❤️
Good video
The best staff with the most dps is the prince of death staff with 80 int and 80 faith has more damage than lusats
And the best dps staff is the carian cepter
True, but lusats is easier to get a hold off
@@tototriceps true but has lower overall dps 50%more fp for 20% damage
The first bgm in the first few minutes makes me wanna replay trigger for the upteenth time
Death bird hits a death box trigger...thats really about it
while he definitely isn't dying to fall damage, i did actually have that liurnia death bird fall to his death, i think he hit a tree on his way down from spawning lmao
There is a kill box in that location because with enough health you could survive that fall or survive it with the parry glitch.
CHRONO TRIGGER music the moment the challenge started was an instant indicator this vid is a banger
I'm doing my NG+ similar to this, except I'm only using skeletal summons. Going full necromancer
Good luck to you man :D
No falling animation means the Deathrite bird entered a death plane(no pun intended) that intersects that area.
Origin of that death plane most likely the bridge of Raya Lucara were the merchant is. A few weird intersections of specific death planes like this exist purely because of how certain areas were designed.
no need for datamining, simply put the bird flies into a deathzone/abyss that is below the bridge. So it dies.
Alrighty! So I decided to put a hitbox viewer on, and it turns out, it flies into a deathplane. The area it jumps into is considered a bottomless pit, and as such because entities when entering falling animations will die due to no death planes being in boss arenas, the game just says "Oh they loaded in the wrong place." and kills it.
So we are right yea, makes sense cause Raya Lucaria is kinda closed of from the outside world, so a deathbox there would make sense
Should had changed your title to, "Elden Ring but Only Ancient Death Rancor Spell"
I really enjoy your content. It would be nice to see you challenge all the remembrance bosses as well instead of just the requiered bosses. But if you don't want to do this it is fine as well. 👍🏻
Noted! Once i get a better PC, ill start doing it (it takes longer recordings hence you need more storage space and editing power)
love your videos
Glad you enjoy them :D
Mimic tear was just really funny to me, this is how I saw it-
Toto: “He’s invincible I can’t hit him while he’s this close!”
Chat member: “Have you tried moving away/making distance?”
Toto: “Damn you right”
The reason the bird died at the beginning I think it’s because it hit a death barrier
1:13, that happened to me on complete accident, however given how unfun they are to fight I wasn't going to complain.
Amazing who people always discover these on accident haha
The faron woods music made the patches death part
The first dude died because of a panic attack, when he reminded that has the hiegh phobia
My level 309 character still uses death sorceries. At this point the damage is INSANE with ancient death rancor. If you charge it the poise dmg is decent too. Bringing me back to hex sorcerer ds2 and I love it.
Ancient death rancor is a amazing spell in the endgame or ng+ it also is basically a cheese for malenia
I got so excited when I heard the persona 5 music kick in omg
Persona 5 literally runs my channel haha
I would powerstance azurs glinstone staff in my offhand with radagon icon for spell cast speed
There's a killplane placed their for when you fall from the bridge, so any entity that touches that killplane, just dies instantly
I like your funny words Magic Man!
Glad you enjoy them :D
u make elden ring sound like dora the explorer
after the buff all 3 of the rancor spells are the only good death (one magma) sorceries.
Ghostflames does hit harder now and have a extremely good frost build up so extremely viable, but it’s all over the place so not reliable on bosses but worthy to use now if your okay with its limitations.
Tibia’s summons hit extremely hard if all skeletons hit but rarely happens so there’s just zero point in using it.
i love Hollow knoight Theme man
5:51 I have battled radahn many times never seen that attack ever
Fire Giant is a legit pain in the ass on ANY spellcaster build.
I never had issues with him until I fought him with a lightning build (my first caster).
I was constantly running out of FP, sometimes getting 1-shot. It was basically an endurance test of whether or not I could patiently whittle him during phase 1 with split damage or pathetic melee damage before realizing my old self-trained strats of "going behind and hitting the stump" was actually causing me to do negative damage with spells.
Fire Giant is the bane of every speedrun/challenge run
Try a melee build, I do strength/dex, so Burn, O’ Flame! (fire pillars) Are a pain in the ass because I can’t run away and do damage. Luckily, most of the other attacks aren’t too bad. But yeah, he has more resistance on the stump. The weak points in phase 2 are his forearms and chest eye.
Another idea to hit the mimic tear easier: equip enough stuff to overload yourself. Poor guy wont even be able to roll
Ill try that next time haha
Love the hollow knight music in the back ground
Perfect run for a Duskborn ending! RIP
If i was doing it over i would make it more interesting... gotta fail first to learn
You can cast Terra Magicka outside a bosses door and it will extend into the arena, helps with some bosses.
Great tip!
Hollow knight music in very beginning is so fitting ❤️
As a master of flaming birds he just migrated at light speed
xD
The Hollow Knight OST - Dirtmouth is got to be one of the best opening songs to a video!
Hollow Knight OST overall is just peak!
that glitch is caused by years of existential crisis
xD
