- A couple people destroyed my time so of course I had to do the same back! Big up @seethrew for the spear strat and @soemzzzz for improving and optimising the hedge lab jump up. This could still be cleaner and sub 4:30 is 100% in reach but I'm happy with this for now!

The fact that you can make a new game and just go kill the biggest baddest non-boss enemy in the game in under 5 minutes is honestly frightening. What can't you do?
Make your dad come back
@@JEFF-xg1km well shit
@@JEFF-xg1km Ouch
Beat your any% time probably! That rng is gonna murrrrder me
@@HolyCodzta That rng is going to be the only thing keeping my time at the top lol, I still can’t believe how lucky that run was
All the skill and dedication is incredible, like I see improvements EVERYWHERE
Like the way to get up to the stones, wow
It was Soemz that found the new route up the wall! I do really like that optimisation though th-cam.com/video/Lm61fbBwqyE/w-d-xo.html
@@HolyCodzta I like how you just demolished your last time and seeThrougs
So impressive and shows the skill you put into this! Nice job!
This is so incredible! You definitely deserve a sub for this!
The parrys are incredible i can't even parry a combo on a wolfspider
Wow, fantastic work!
Saw your comment on seethrew's vid and thought I wouldn't see this video for months, but I appreciate the work in making it come out early :)
Hahaa did the same to Paraly5er with his Broodmother run too so I'll say the same thing I said then, competition is motivating!
@@HolyCodzta agreed
also have you ever thought about a mantis speedrun?
yeah, kick his ass dude! well done, i hope the race is enjoyable for both of you! :)
There's three of us! Seethrew, Soemz and myself
totally having fun with the back and forth! hehe
Very nice run, i cant believe that sub 4:30 could be possible. The routing here was very unique, making sure you get every possible pickup for the spears on the way there was very smart. I have been avoiding running grounded bc i knew there was no chance i could make a better strat than you, ima aim for sub 5:30 later. The fight was also very clean, cant believe you were able to get its AI to not shit itself AND not choke at the same time well done. A lot of that parkour hurt my brain, it seems so perfect I wouldn't believe if someone told me you were a pixel off TAS level positioning. GGS
I wouldn't have either when I posted my 10+ min run! Hey the more the merrier, and if you can beat 5:28 you'll have a crispy second place! ;) Yeah I was pretty happy with that, only missed two spears which were quite costly at a ~6 second time loss, but not bad still. Haha I really like that new route up the hedge wall that Soemz found, much quicker, cleaner and more fun. Thanks Element! Good to see you around still :)
.
Just realised when I said it was good to see you around still I thought you were another "Element" that's commented on other videos. Nice to have you here either way!
I absolutely love Fray Bentos pies. I didn't know they were bigger! Thanks for uploading brother ♥👍👍👍👍👍
Mate they do get massive! Thank you for watching brother
What a crazy run. I had a feeling sub 5:00 was possible and you crushed it. Ive been ill lately so just now seeing your post. This run is borderline perfect with a few exceptions. Great job!
Thanks! Was pretty happy with this run despite the spider standing still and missing the last spear.
Did a few woah runs earlier and my best time landing on the top rock of the first parkour up the hedge lab wall was 2:01 so 5 seconds faster there (and I think it can still be faster); lost 8-9 seconds to the spider standing still for literally no reason after aggoring it; I think it's unnecessary making it jump to the smaller rock first so that could save another ~5 seconds; could start attacking it sooner saving another 5+ and I missed two spears costing yet another 5 seconds. So that means sub 4:10 is possible but screw going for that until someone beats this!
Trying to figure out how to beat a black widow with t3 gear and weapons and then I see you do this. You are on another level. Worth a subscription for sure. I would like to see a speed run on Xbox though. Seems like PC is a lot easier with hot keys.
I am am xbox speedrunner, my pb for black widow is 5:47, pc does not necessarily have an advantage for this category.
I was thinking of trying some controller runs at some point cause I haven't played on Xbox in over a year now. Could get a game pass deal and actually try it on Xbox too though.
I much prefer mkb yeah and easier hotkeys is one of the reasons. I'm assuming Grounded is 60fps on Series X so I'd only have an advantage over the Xbone, the load times are just quality of life. External SSD on Xbone might not be too bad on that front though. Thanks for the comment!
@@element8569 Damn that's super close to 2nd! Good stuff. Btw I responded to another element thinking it was you haha, gonna have to remember your number too
@@HolyCodzta it is me, thats my actual youtube channel where I post Dauntless content. I have 2 separate accounts, I just ended up being on my pc at that time.
@@element8569 Oh cool, fair enough
I found that route up the wall due to laziness. Lol i didnt want to go around. I also didnt do it at the beginning of the game either. Ive been finding all kinds of routes with the grass. Great work. I never would have fought that spider naked. 😅
bro! very impressive, you made it up the rock jump at like 2:05 i don't think i made it until 2:40 or so. Very impressive! I was questioning the different start but it turned out great! also like the path you took in the water, seems a lot more efficient with less stuff in the way! big grats! love that i reignited this idea! lets keep it going, and lets invent some interesting runs, maybe even a antlion or something lol who knows
Thanks bro! I was thinking that the route there should be the most direct and just focus on grabbing what materials I can on the way for just over 10 spears so I can have two volleys and some leftover in case they fly off randomly. Running faster than swimming too so wanted minimal time in the water and I probably did about 15-20 runs so was able to learn the swimming route pretty good, maxing swimming speed over distance with the jumping isn't something I've really done before.
This can be faster so I'm keen to see someone beat this so I have to run it again!
Tried thistles and spears were better but here's some of the routes I plotted beforehand imgur.com/a/H99UDxk
I was thinking no way he beat seethrew but that was about as good as it gets, idk if you can get any faster than that!
@@houstonSolo Can always go faster! Despite it being mostly running across the map I quite enjoy this run so I might push it lower before someone beats it, not sure yet
me and my friend now are going to the hedge and love it when you post
Glad to hear it :) First time in the hedge?
Good Stuff!
Impressive.
Wow that parrying was amazing!
Thanks BibleNutter!
Ngl, those perfect blocks were crazy.
Eyy cheers fella
WTF how the hell are u that's good at perfect block my dude😮
Wow juste wow🤯🤯🤯
The answer to the question: What if Jackie Chan was in 'Honey, I Shrunk the Kids'
Dam thats mad skill
Damn... Me trying to block an normal ant - - FAIL. And this guy does the parry Master skill (10 perfect blocks in a row) on a black widow without armor. I am gaming since 1993 and this is impressive!
Ants are actually one of the harder enemies to parry! Their timing is weird
I’m so stunned about this blocking skills
So was she ;)
I've done this challenge myself but I didn't know there was a fastest world record section for this 🤯
I like to imagine a family in the house eating steak and vegetables and just chilling while a teenager the size of an ant battles spiders with micro pebbles attached to a stick.
What if that's really happening?
You’re insane dude lol. I managed to complete all lower yard labs in a game week and thought that was good 😅 you ever do Mant runs anymore?
That's not bad to be fair! No Mant runs, although that is obviously included in any% and Mant kill on any% runs is like 7 minutes faster than my dedicated Mant run so I might have to redo it at some point, can't be getting memed on for tooo long haha
Im literally 170 in game days into the game and I haven’t finished the story nor killed any boss (not sure if assistant manager counts) and haven’t killed black widow. HOW ARE YOU SO GOOD.
Yeah AssMan counts! Haha having played 2k hours helps
ninja!! 👏
I posted the spear strat on your older video fighting black widow, you even commented on it like two months before the first one was done xD not a huge deal just would have been cool if you’d of been the first (: just coming back to grounded with the new update on the horizon and hoping to see you smash the new bugs :D
Dang yeah just went and found it. I have brought great shame upon my community.
Nah I think I didn't try again with that strat because I usually like to wait for someone to beat my time before doing a run again, it just so happened someone else used the spear strat to do it!
Thanks! Now's a good time to get a video out for sure. Won't spoil the update for you but I'm struggling to figure out the route for this new one
Another insane run
Cheers Fordfocuslol, I recognise your name haha
@@HolyCodzta Lmao
Damm you got skill
the fact that the widow is harder than director smechtor tells you something about the end game balancing of this game
a lil myth I've been thinking of: if you stagger the widow for long enough, it can't hit you throughout the entire fight(requires Chopper and Coup de Grass), this also applies to every bug
This isn't Paraly5er's channel ;)
te re contra inmortalizo sos el papu gomes
Man, my arachnophobia is acting up
the fact that you didnt drop the venom with peblet spears in 4.3min is terrifiying
Haha didn't even realise! Gotta love that venom rng
Facts
I killed all of them on the map once and only got ONE venom. RNG sucks
lol
@@dj146n I'm working my up to get the sour staff and for the bw dagger you need 4 super venom. I've killed her 3 times without cheesing and all I've gotten is one each time lmao. Now I'm waited ng for one of them to respawn
bro your crazy
The craziest speed run ive seen knowing it took me 126 days to kill one widow, how did you learn to parry so well?
I practiced against a wolf during early access first, just set my spawn nearby, aggroed a wolf then just tried to parry until I died. Rinse and repeat until I could parry like 75%. That improved over time to 99%+ and because the widow is just a sped up wolf it was an easy transition.
The practice strat nowadays is to save your game, make it a custom game and turn player damage off as they changed it so you can now parry even when player damage is turned off. Practice for as long as you want then just load the save you made which will reenable achievements.
@@HolyCodztaThanks!
bro is a god at parrying
Thanks! The new widow might have something to say about that though
holy shit
Bro woke up and had one thing on his mind despite forgetting everything. And it was to kill a widow with 13 plant stems and rocks taped together.
This kids cracked
love how you used the poison as an alternative to giving up
You are the best❤
Too kind
Btw maybe you wil try to speedrun dr. Schmector lab or try to beat grounded!
(If you will beat grounded as a speedeun you will be the first one that did it!)
I do wanna speedrun Schmector at some point and I don't think anyone's done it yet but Zylo has speedrun the story plenty of times already, check him out! th-cam.com/video/675Q0qYZq0Q/w-d-xo.html
How do you parry so well! I can parry about 67% of attacks but your insane
I've done hundreds of wolf spider speedruns so just had to up the tempo as the attacks are the same, aside from the 3 attack combo they got from the orbs. So practice, basically!
What blows my mind is that you even got parry master before the fight even ended
Added on Discord! Love the grounded content. Keep it up 👍
HolyCodzta has a Discord server?
I don't have my own server but there is a Grounded speedrunning discord
For casual play, what difficulty do you play on?
Normally medium but I did a whoa playthrough before 1.0
Wtf? Insane parring XD
Bros blocks are better than my grades 😂
man why is that pebblet spear doing more damage than my upgraded tier 3 weapons :(
also let me know when your ready to try a whoa mode version! lol
Eyyy whoaaa spoiler alert bro ;)
Me after 3 threes of playing grounded “I’m finally ready to kill the black widow
This is insane holyyy shit xDD
Are people allowed to react to this and make a video on it without any copyright or anything, do you care as long as they say the channel that made the video, aka yours, @HolyCodzta ?
Probably not if it's just a plain reaction and isn't at all transformative. If you're commentating and explaining strats, maybe comparing to other people's runs, then sure!
You should speed run mantis if you haven't already😁
I have not done that yet! Want to at some point though
Nice job but if you didn't miss that last one you would've got a better time but he'll yeah nice job bro
Yeah the fight could still be improved slightly in a few places, mostly cancelling a throw by trying to throw the next one too early. Pretty clean overal though!
And im here struggling to kill it. If only i knew the peeble spear was the goat
Peeble spear do be goated
Speedrun killin infected brodmother 💀💀
how you get so good at parrying my guy? like made that whole fight look easy
This was before Black Widow got buffed. With enough time you will learn how to parry. Shields are really good because you dont need to perfect parry to block.
Originally I set up a lean-to by a sleeping wolf and practiced parrying, dying over and over until I got it somewhat down. Then they changed the player damage custom setting to allow you to parry so just save game, convert to custom, disable player damage, practice, reload save to reenable achievements. These days there's probably a good playgrounds mode out there for spawning and despawning each specific creature with just a button so you can quickly practice against whatever you want
@@HolyCodzta ah, i see, they do say practice makes perfect, thanks for the insight and advice, i been playing alot of grounded recently, i would love to play with ppl, but this game weirdly doesnt have a match making kinda deal going on so you can play with ppl easily, instead i gotta find some obscure discord server to find someone to play with, which isnt ideal for me, at that point i just started soloing, and its been fun, but would be more fun with friends no lie
@@MaropSKi yeee, i been workin lil on my parrying, got it to max level now, and with a shield, it can get pretty easy to atleast get half parried, but i still kinda suck at it, but i just need practice
@@adamknight6719 kinda off topic but i really like to fight a certain beetle (not bombardier) in mid game. Love their attack patterns for some reason.
how do you block so perfectly?!?!
Just luck tbh
Plz do a director schmector speedrun
Bro made more progress than me in less than 5 mins while I have over 13 days of playtime
What do you mean you didn't get black widow parts in your first 5 minutes of playing?
@@HolyCodzta I can barely defeat the termite king man 😭
I wish i was that good at parrying
You can get good at parrying!
They got the same moveset as orb weavers right?? Like their max combo is 3 attacks in a row?? As opposed to wolfs having a 5-hit combo
Edit: nvm lol looks more similar to wolf moveset
They kinda have both! They're basically a sped up wolf with the orb's triple combo added and the wolf's jump removed
The part where he throws like thirteen Pebblet spears at her
Don't remember that?!?!
Whats the difficulty ?
This run was on mild but I also did it on whoa! th-cam.com/video/jPcAbl1eHKI/w-d-xo.html
i genuinely have no excuse on not being able to beat this thing with endgame gear anymore 😢😢😞😞
Get to it! What gear you running?
I cant kill an orb weawer in the fist 1 hour and you do this!
You made me feel like the worst player of Grounded.😢
Have you tried practicing your perfect blocks against them? If you go into a custom game with player damage off and hunger/thirst drain off you can practice perfect blocking for as long as you want. Doing that for even just a few minutes will help you a lot against them!
Dude is a dark souls OG player
Haha actually never finished a Souls game
Mantis next please and thank you
Hmmmmmmmmm
Im 60 hours into the game and havent even seen a black widow yet. =x
Well it'll be fun when you finally do! If not also a bit terrifying...
Ur so good at speedrunning you literally speedrun making a new game
Haha getting mad at losing run after run to rng and bugs makes me wanna get through the menus as fast as possible
@@HolyCodzta wow
Something that takes me around 7 irl days to fight gets killed within a few minutes
Standard speedrun shenanigans! You thought about trying this speedrun?
@@HolyCodzta nah
Imagine doing this now against infused black widow but you start NG+ with nothing
Because I'm in NG+4 and finally killed the IBM and almost done every mix.r
I'd try it if we could do NG+ stuff in playgrounds!
This is how grounded should be played 4 minutes in u should be discovering super spider venom not a field station. Honestly when I started my first 1.0 world at 10 minutes I was fighting director schmector. U did a rly good job tho.
Haha damn, how the heck did you do that?
@@HolyCodztawdym its ez
@@Peteb804 10 minute Schmector is easy? Please tell
@@HolyCodztayeah I just got the mint mace right after I spawned in you know and then speedran the story.
Yeah I just watched your video. Nice!
damn bro, i tried like 20 times today lol no where close!
Damn, what's your best time so far?
@@HolyCodzta I didn't do a full run, just tried to make it to the first jump up by 2:05 and I kept hitting 2:20
@@seethrew Ahh fair enough. Cheeky tip is to set up beacons along the route and practice running that a few times (just respawn at kid case when you get to the end). When you don't have to focus on which direction you're heading it makes it a lot easier to figure out and remember the finer details like which grass gaps you can't fit through and which rocks you can't jump up etc.
So if you're following my route just put one at the field station and one at the start of the hedge wall jump up. I didn't do it that much with this run so I reckon you can improve the route for sure! Oh and make sure you're sprint jumping for efficient stamina use
how about the infected broodmother speed run?
Potentially yeah!
100% perfect block on widow? Better perfect block mod?
Didn't even know there was a perfect block mod! So no, I didn't use that. Grounded parry window is already so generous I've never felt I needed a parry mod anyway.
Only thing I've ever edited in this game is GameUserSettings.ini and Engine.ini for better control over graphics settings and to remove depth of field.
wow, she didn't summon any mini black widows, she only does that if she's inside her hole?
This was before they added her ability to spawn widows and then eat them to power up, would be much tougher now for sure!
Me with cheese after 40h, tier3 😅
Everything in moderation ;)
To see a legend grow is amazing, especially when you see you have the record, then lose it by. A few minutes, then destroy it. Wow, I thought I was good when killed killed a wolf spider with a II axe and clover armor, after doing the whole hedge lab without perishing
Still, not close to you
Thanks TT! Nice, hedge lab without dying is good going tbf, was that your first time in there?
@@HolyCodzta no, I have advanced soo much due to you, I mean I was so scared and knew nothing for a month, but I took a leap of faith, played with a few friends, and got to near end of the game so I decided to restart, and just see my skill but no where close to you yet
@@toxictrooper1879 That's awesome. I started playing not long after it released into early access so had to learn all this stuff myself and it took ages!
Like number 700
700 attempts you mean? Livesplit tells me this took 33 attempts
Oh you meant likes on the video... Thank you!

Thank for ❤...

or are you holycodzta because you are the fastest
Can u do this on xbox
Absolutely! Can even plug a mouse and keyboard into your xbox if you wanna play on mouse and keys
Another one
You smrt
HOW😮😮😮😮😮😮
WITH SPEARS MATE
This thing i so hard to kill now
Are you on the public test?
holy shit a 6 minute shave off 😟
Yeahhh babyyyy! 6 minutes off my own time, almost a minute off of SoemZ time of 5:28!
Ikr what the hell
Fuck. I just learned there was a black widow...
I cant ever parry the wolf spiders 5 attack combo, im never killing this thing
Nahh you'll get it! Can give you some tips if you want
Done on mild I bet
Also done on whoa: th-cam.com/video/jPcAbl1eHKI/w-d-xo.html
Do a new one
To all others people : don't try this at home... BW is not an ordinary tire 3 bug... Its a tank... Its resistance to everything... I mean everthing... Chopping, slashing, stabbing, fresh, spice, salty.... Anything you name it, it has resistance to it...
Stunts like this are only done by ultra pro plus profesional people...
I am repeating again, dont try this at home ... If you does, i can garantee that you are going to uninstall the game...
This guy finished this game many time... & He challenged himself many time to get here ... If you think you can get here on the 1st day or even 1st month you start the game... It can only happen in your dream ...
To the guy who make this kind of shit even possible & make us feel inferior in our gaming skill : what are you made off? Are you really human? You need to understand one thing first there is a reason why the developers developed tire 3 equipments... I think developers should make seperate grounded fou you alone where the easy mode should be whoa+ mode...
I didn't know how you are at other games... But in grounded you definitely the no.1 player in this world...
on easiest difficulty its not that bad on woah ladybugs are harder then this
I say definitely do try it! Best way to learn something new is by spiking the difficulty every now and then ;)
Imagine doing this with rusty spears😂
Would be nuts! Might have to try that in creative just to see
Bro who hurt you?
The spiders in Grounded!
