i reached bayle very early in my first playthrough of the dlc, got stubborn, and killed him without advancing igon's quest beyond the first time you see him near the ancient dragon man invasion. after i killed bayle, i went back and he was gone, and i found his stuff in the shadow keep lol. i had no idea what was up with him until my second go around
I've done some research (One search on google) and what I could find is that Nanaya is the girl in the painting in that one loading screen, and that she can be found dead in Midra's Manse having Nanaya's torch on her corpse. A lot of people probably know this already lol
When i did it it was 1v5. I wanted no help during my first playthrough. And man.,...... 1v5 was not easy. But I realized the best strat was to run and chip of small damage until everyone had used their heals and all the rot pots were used up. The fight took about 10 minutes
It's so funny and awesome to me that the VA for Igon pretty much single-handedly has made that one of the most memorable NPCs in not only the FromSoft catalogue but any game really. I mean, he's so damn good that people actually enjoy summoning him for the boss. Obviously credit to the people that wrote the dialogue as well, but the delivery is just absolutely insane.
@ETBrooD there's still a fair bit of difference and skill needed to do VA over theatre acting. There's a lot of the voice stuff you learn for theatre that isn't applicable in a recording booth. A really good sound tech is an absolute necessity to give you the feedback necessary for a good performance. But for a first time VA that is extraordinary. (Source: I am classically trained in theatre, have acted professionally, have taken a short course in Voice recording techniques)
A run like this is really fun because, besides the obvious "Maternal Staff + Impenetrable Thorns go brrr" strat, the DLC alone provides a ton of really useful and strong weapons and strategies like the Falx you can really easily get from killing Hornsent, the Backhand Blades, Milady, Bloodfiend's Arm, Hand-to-hand weapons, Ashes of War like Carian Sovereignty, Flame Spear, and The Poison Flower Blooms Twice, and items like the Priestess Heart that gives a pretty considerable boost to an already really solid build. The DLC even gives us a bunch of items for meme runs like the Mantle of Thorns spell or the Lamenter's Mask.
@@malikhittam1440Yes, the Blue Balls run lol. However, I don't think it would be THAT difficult if you used the Endure Ash of War every time before casting the actual spell since the damage of the spell itself is honestly not that bad.
@@StanleyG23 I'm fine with it being easy. Skumnut usually does these types of degenerate runs. He makes them hilarious even if they're not challenging lol
Something i noticed so fast on my first run on a str faith lightning build was the amount of bosses in water. Rellana, the dragons leading to Bayle, 2 of the 3 ghostflame dragons, 1 of the bears, Inquistor, Pustrecent Knight, Sunflower, Metyr. Unrelated to the video but watching Gino fight the Ghostflame Dragon made me realise that.
Overall, the bosses are generally *really* weak to elemental damage in some way or another. Magic is probably the "worst", but given how many buffs that shit has that's fine LOL
@@ETBrooD holy is still very viable in base game outside of Fortisaxx, Maliketh and Elden Beast. But if your using split damage its not even noticable. DLC nothing is that strong against holy besides the Dancing Lion, Avatar and both Bayle and Metyr are resistant to all elements. Putrescent, Gaius, Messmer (phase 2) and Radahn (phase 1) get nuked by holy and same goes with the Death Knights and Ghostflame Dragons. So holy is pretty "meta" in the dlc
Hunter, are you ok? You just put out a video a few weeks ago… RKR glitch, summon a mimic tear, and drink a bottle of AG1 3 times if you’re being held hostage in Gino’s house.
I do think it’d be wonderfully diabolical if an ascension mod for the DLC made it so once you enter you can’t leave until you beat Messmer. It could have a warning added before starting the DLC that hints you’ll be on a “long voyage”, but I feel like it would emulate the trapped in Caelid feeling on a much larger scale
@@Cman04092 hmm, how about if you haven’t beat Godfrey when you enter the DLC you can’t leave till Messmer, but if you did beat Godfrey you can’t leave till you beat Radahn? Just for the sake of difficulty pacing, someone can access the DLC a little over halfway through their playthrough and if they couldn’t leave till they beat Radahn they’d either hit a wall and give up entirely or have to grind and level up so much they’ll be overpowered for most of the second half of the main game when they return. Messmer (with a few Scadutree blessings) is about as difficult as Mohg imho so it’d still require them to explore the DLC for the blessings before they’d typically be able to beat Messmer
@silasstryder oh fair point, I was only thinking from a story point, lol. Maybe make the mod push the dlc even further back, like fire giant or maliketh. Your plan would also work just fine as well tbh.
I HEREBY VOW. YOU WILL RUE THIS DAY! BEHOLD, A TRUE DRAKE WARRIOR AND I IGON, YOUR FEARS MADE FLESH. SOLID OF SCALE YOU MIGHT BE, FOUL DRAGON. BUT I WILL RIDDLE WITH HOLES YOUR ROTTEN HIDE, WITH A HAIL OF HARPOONS!! WITH EVERY LAST DROP OF MY BEING! NNNAAAAНННАА!!!!
Igon is top 10 souls characters of all time. Everyone thinks Kendrick Lamar is the biggest hater but they have nothing on a cowardly scavenger who is so pissed at drakes he refused to die and found his calling
really sucks that you can't use whetblades because wing stance on the milady just elevates that weapon to a whole other level, both in visual elegance and power. the poise damage and chasing on the r2 is nuts, and the r1 combos into the r2 of the stance as long as you hold l2 the whole time. milady is easily my favourite weapon in the dlc, the moveset is so cool, the way r2s combo into r1s, with that being carried over to wing stance as well, plus how insane the scaling is on so many infusions, makes it one of the most versatile weapons in the game. i actually prefer the one handed moveset to the powerstanced one, the combos last longer and you get a cool jab on the running r2.
Hey just for the future or any other challenge runs with the dlc, the Scadutree avatar enters a stance broken state when you kill it, because getting the critical hit reduces the next ones health by 25%. The mercy dagger talisman is really good for this fight.
Hey Gino! Back when I completed the game, i didnt really get any motivation to play after getting all items in my first run. But you dropping so much content, I played more after that. This DLC series got me so crazy hyped ngl ❤
I like these runs a lot better than the “no hit” runs. These are more fun to watch…. The “no hit” runs are like watching a Superman movie, like you already know Superman is invincible so it takes the excitement out of it.
tbh, I think the group-npc fight is pretty cool considering you can change who you will encounter and who assists you depending on the quests and decisions you make.
I wanted to beat the DLC myself, then watch though all of the "first playthrough" streams before i moved onto these condensed edits. Now that im FINALLY finished and caught up, these really feel like a treat. Great stuff, man.
Messmer's eye thing is a seal on the Base Serpent within him placed by Marika because she was afraid of the danger it posed against the Erdtree. Thats why she abandoned him in the Shadow Realm as well.
I dont know if you know this but, the long range attack that the sunflower does where it shoots two lines of thorns at you. You can just jump over them when they activate. Love the content❤
17:00 Glad I'm not the only person experiencing this. Seems to happen whenever you do certain button inputs at the same time I guess? I always fix it by unplugging my controller and plugging it back in though.
i truly consider gino's content to be the peak of elden ring content. something about the pure mastery and cold percision he has makes you excited to go play the game again and again. i will have this on before going to sleep thank you very much gino and hunter.
1:01:00 the thing is cuz it deals insane damage if the enemy is poisoned, that's why you use weapons like venomous fang which deals Lethal poison instead. which procs the poison blooms twice dmg to deal extra when enemies are poisoned.
Meteoric ore greatsword is the first weapon I completed the dlc with. Was very enjoyable and I love the aow on it. Learning the final boss fight with it was extremely challenging but rewarding and fun
thought this was going to be the same as some of the other challenges like this ive seen, was absolutely shocked when you revealed that you have unupgraded flasks
Tip, you can avoid metyrs Lazer beam, you just stand close enough to not get hit by the dot area, right at its edge there's a gap between it and the spinning laze. Imagine two rings drawn one medium and one larger, the circle which makes up that gap is your safe sone.
The poison flower blooms twice gives scarlet rot if you hit them with the ash of war, it can be detonated like poison or just applied for the DoT. It gives you poison on the weapon and scarlet on ash of war, good for affliction builds
55:54 The thing that Mesmer removes is not an eye, it's a Merica's Scarseal. She put it in place to contain the "based serpent" that dwells inside him.
fyi you can get the ice guy in enir ilim to walk off a cliff by aggroing him before you run into the room with the fragment, then hugging the left (left as you walk into the room, right side when you're in the room looking out) side of the room. he'll usually walk right off the ledge, then walk off another ledge that he falls to and dies. sometimes he'll slowly walk around the rooftops to you though so you probably want to memory of grace if he does.
I can definitely see some of the reasons why people don’t like the mother of fingers boss but I liked it so much. I used a milady and didn’t have any problems with the fight. The adds even though vaguely annoying, die in one hit and are super slow and low damaging. I have no idea how you’re meant to dodge the quasar attack (black hole laser one) but it only hits once and then isn’t much of a threat. Rest of the attacks seems super easy to punish. Definitely lmk your thoughts if y’all care to, but using a no summons no buffs milady build with poison flower blooms twice found it super fun
Try a no hit run except your goal is to beat the game alongside someone you know that hasn’t beaten Elden ring before (you need to be summoned into their game and help them complete their stages as well as your own)
I love your vids gino, your vids helped me beat the base game for the first time and i dont really watch amyone else just because your way of explaining things
I love how Igon spends an entire MINUTE yapping about Bayle when summoned, but it's so funny how every line of dialogue he has is specifically to curse out a dragon.
I've got a pretty interesting challenge for you: Beat Elden Ring as Sanji from One Piece Rule 1: you can only use your kicks to deal damage Rule 2: you have to complete all questlines given by women and you cannot damage or disrespect any of them. Rule 3: you can use summons, but only the ones that are confirmed to be women, like the jellyfish Rule 4: you must kill everyone that weilds a sword(including NPSs, but not including Melania) Rule 5: ashes of wars and spells can be used, but only if it doesn't deal damage I've tried this challenge myself but killing the Draconic Tree Sentinel seems impossible for me. For anyone who is willing to go through the living hell that is Sanji's life, I wish you good luck. Keep in mind that anything that isn't mentioned in the rules is fair game.
1:01:22 Part of my first DLC playthrough used this ash of war and the poison infusion on the scorpion stinger rapier. Since the poison status was higher, I would often proc poison, skill burst, and then shortly after proc rot, and then do a second skill burst later.
It was very clutch for me that they added the upgrade materials. I did mogh early and got into the dlc. I didn't have access to high level smithing or somber smithing stones. I wanted to do DLC before entering lyndell and locked myself to level100.
Thanks to the controller that it didn't want to work, so I would never have seen Voicemeeter on your desktop. I love this audio program, and you make really cool videos
Rellana screams Boreal Dancer, to me. Not only do they have a flashy move style,but they also are a Dual Element Boss with a similar armor and color scheme.
I don't quite know how to articulate why, but I think the Scadutree Avatars Tree Blast in its third phase might be my favorite boss attack in Elden Ring6

It’s impossible to summon Igon and not crack a smile at his dialogue for the Bale fight. Just so epic
He is the embodiment of 3am motivation lol, felt like I could beat everything listening to him
He really is just Captain Ahab but instead of a whale it's a dragon. Honestly fantasy Moby Dick feels like a missed oppurtunity.
honestly. it feels wrong to fight Bayle without him lmaooo
stopped summoning him after like the 3rd time. hes so annoying
i reached bayle very early in my first playthrough of the dlc, got stubborn, and killed him without advancing igon's quest beyond the first time you see him near the ancient dragon man invasion. after i killed bayle, i went back and he was gone, and i found his stuff in the shadow keep lol. i had no idea what was up with him until my second go around

I like that he sounds a little bored while saying it probably because he's used to it
13:40 “you would think i know this boss like decently well”
Proceeds to almost no hit gaius
Those curved sword horned knights are literally open world bosses. Some of them killed me more times than actual bosses did
The bird warriors are worse and the beast warriors are the worst, but they're fun to fight once you get it down.
Their attacks are slow, so it's fun to guard counter them
They have more complex attacks than malenia and rellana lol. Plus hyperarmor and being always near edges of the buildings to knock you down
Infinite poise
The dual wielding ones are a great fight tho. And the swords they drop are really dope, it’s like a holy version of rykard’s greatsword
The gank fight near the end is so good when youve done all the npc quests but so miserable when you're alone 😂
Yeah it was hype with everyone introducing themselves it’s probably the best npc fight if you do the quests
Finally, the host gets ganked for once
👇👇👇👇👇
its a fun fight if you followed everyones quests, but its a bit of a slog if you dont
When i did it it was 1v5. I wanted no help during my first playthrough. And man.,...... 1v5 was not easy. But I realized the best strat was to run and chip of small damage until everyone had used their heals and all the rot pots were used up. The fight took about 10 minutes

Isn't it an Eye of Grace or sth? You can find two eyes that make certain npcs "see the light" (also two that do the opposite)
Blind spot on backhand blade with cold infusion carried me through my first DLC playthrough.
Just completed the dlc after killing all bosses. What an amazing experience. Can't wait to do new game plus base game with all the new items

I can definitely see some of the reasons why people don’t like the mother of fingers boss but I liked it so much. I used a milady and didn’t have any problems with the fight. The adds even though vaguely annoying, die in one hit and are super slow and low damaging. I have no idea how you’re meant to dodge the quasar attack (black hole laser one) but it only hits once and then isn’t much of a threat. Rest of the attacks seems super easy to punish.
Definitely lmk your thoughts if y’all care to, but using a no summons no buffs milady build with poison flower blooms twice found it super fun
I quite liked it as well, but I agree, the quasar attack (first rotation) is BS
I agree I thought it was weird to receive so many upgrade materials, but now it makes a little more sense. I want to play the dlc at level 1 as well.
Gino using the milady against the tree sentinel was so smooth it looked like a cinematic it was cool. Also Hunter you good?
Try a no hit run except your goal is to beat the game alongside someone you know that hasn’t beaten Elden ring before (you need to be summoned into their game and help them complete their stages as well as your own)
So we finally see Gino experiencing the hard mode fight against Leda. And that's not even the 1v5 nightmare version lmao
Do you have any idea how many people you’ve lulled to sleep using these runs? What a vibe. Thanks Gino.

Rule 4: you must kill everyone that weilds a sword(including NPSs, but not including Melania)
Rule 5: ashes of wars and spells can be used, but only if it doesn't deal damage
I've tried this challenge myself but killing the Draconic Tree Sentinel seems impossible for me.
For anyone who is willing to go through the living hell that is Sanji's life, I wish you good luck. Keep in mind that anything that isn't mentioned in the rules is fair game.
The Skyrim Music behind your Voice is great 😊
The bosses are a huge step up from the base game
Promised Consort Radahn is an exception to this
Igon didn't kill steal, it was his fight and you were just a witness
Dragon close enough to whisper in his ear. Impales him on his horn. "I didn't think it'd reach that far"
I would love to have an option to play like this. I would explore and really open into everything
1:01:22 Part of my first DLC playthrough used this ash of war and the poison infusion on the scorpion stinger rapier. Since the poison status was higher, I would often proc poison, skill burst, and then shortly after proc rot, and then do a second skill burst later.
It was very clutch for me that they added the upgrade materials. I did mogh early and got into the dlc. I didn't have access to high level smithing or somber smithing stones. I wanted to do DLC before entering lyndell and locked myself to level100.
Thanks to the controller that it didn't want to work, so I would never have seen Voicemeeter on your desktop. I love this audio program, and you make really cool videos
I have been waiting for this video 😊 !!
Rellana screams Boreal Dancer, to me. Not only do they have a flashy move style,but they also are a Dual Element Boss with a similar armor and color scheme.
Bro you jsut made gaius look fun. Absolute miracle worker
These runs are awesome ngl
I have no idea who you are but you are crushing it.
Everyone else doing challenge runs giving themselves full flasks meanwhile gino is just using heal from afar and a pocket full of dreams
the commander gaius fight man. i was struggling there for a while with a maxed out weapon and with many buffs yet you almost no hit it. thats crazy
That first-try Radahn was a work of art.
I'm in love with Gino's chuckle.
Video idea: "Elden Ring but it's only chuckles"? (no homo)
I don't quite know how to articulate why, but I think the Scadutree Avatars Tree Blast in its third phase might be my favorite boss attack in Elden Ring6
Messmar is the best fight in the game imo, it's such a fun fight
