My man put himself through 69 hours of Elden Ring just punching everything to death without summons, magic or ashes of war. He deserves a Maiden after all he put himself through.
Imagine getting killed by a guy with his bare fists because you said the guy didn't have a girlfriend. But a round of applause to you dante for actually beeting him.
The fact that this man used one handed attacks instead of power stance attacks DEFINITELY made this run all that much harder (plus not upgrading the fist weapons at the blacksmith I think). The mad lad handicapped himself even more than was necessary or intended and still beat the game, QuantumTV and any other bs reviewers be damned
@@DanteRavioli let’s go you put metal gear rising music in the video also if you play battle field bad company 1 only using the power tool it’s possible I did it on hard the final boss dose not count so content idea if you want
You can tell that Dante was afraid of this challenge judging by the intro. For me, Dante can take anything like a champ. If he could go through hell on RE4 and 5 knife only, he could beat Elden Ring fist only.
I love the reveal that up until the very end, all those feats and dead bosses, giants and demigods, were all killed _one handed_ Killing a Fire Giant with a single hand. Hero.
They weren't. He might not have known about two-handing them consciously, but looking at the Godrick or Smarag fight, he's two handing. Keep in mind, I'm not saying he knew about it definitively, but just he was two-handing them at some points.
@@nodripnightshade6531 I think youre mistaken. He looked like twohanding, but actually, he was just using a fist weapon in every hand, not twohanding them. You can see by both weapons being fully visible, while twohanding one of these, they left slot gets transparent (as seen later).
Actually wasn't that hard to notice that his leg was taking more dmg, like, if you see that one of the two legs was taking more dmg why would you attack any other place?
I started one, i went and killed boggart at level 12 to get his fists and killed bernhardt for the beast champion set for poise. It was surprisingly easy and i more or less finished liurnia 3 hours in lol
I did a fist run after watching this video ua-cam.com/video/otPuJf2eJfQ/v-deo.html Storm stomp + Heavy Spike Caestus is a lot of fun ( minus bosses who have hit boxes smaller than their model >.> Erdtree Avatars). Like I'm enjoying it way more than my Blasphemous blade run. Even thought it's the bis 2hander. Link to original source in case any maidenless viewers hasn't seen season one of Hero Academia. ua-cam.com/video/5YmJj0onPkI/v-deo.html
By God I'm so happy he realized he could powerstance, even if it was by the end of it. Seriously, Mad respect dude. Hope you have fun with some challenge runs in this game.
i wonder how much effort goes into the videos as a person who does edit videos i understand how hard it is but you have the willpower to keep doing thats what i like about you
The worst part about using fist weapons isn't that they're bad, it's just their reach. Some fights like Radahn, Morgott, Fire Giant, Beast Clergyman/Maliketh and Elden Beast can be a pain with fists because some of your attacks will either slide off of them or not reach their hitbox. Against regular enemies they're great and you can basically chain poise-breaks, but man do we need to suffer sometimes for our doll waifu.
The fact you made it to Maliketh without power stancing the fist weapons was impressive all on its own. You can power stance them with just two handing it puts the same fist weapon on both hands. Great video.
I relate to the draconic tree sentinel. I stayed up for almost 7 hours trying to beat him. I was so stubborn I didnt even try leveling up I just kept trying. I eventually did it but god. Magic build against him is difficult. Especially since I was new to the game
Congradulations Dante Ravioli you have rightfully earned the title Dante Ravioli "The Fister" title (and between u and me, using magic to buff your weapon is legal imo because your still using your fisting weapon not a magic weapon just a magic buff which is completly different imo but tbh ill leave that to the ER comunity because ive only played Bloodborne and Dark souls 3)
You’re literally my favorite channel to do these types of videos. Your humor and over the top acting is actually top notch. You know those people you befriend in life who are just FUNNY as fuck, wether its their voice, or face or how they talk they are just funny, without even trying. Thats you. Wish you put out more videos.
This is close to how I played my first run, used the cypher pata as my melee. Wasn’t till after I beat the game in nearly its entirety that I found out almost every boss is resistant to holy damage, upwards of 80% damage reduction on bosses like maliketh
12:00 Pro tip: Got two weapons of the same typing? You can attack with them at the same time if you got the right stats for both in between each other. It's called power stancing and I recommend the Rotten sword insignia, as you will be hitting repeatedly with fist weapons.
I was looking for this comment! Lol great video, but all i could think was “Please just hold y/triangle and duel wield”. Still, he managed pretty well👌
Since Elden Ring came out, I did my best to absolutely avoid it. I had seen literally NOTHING of this game, except an article saying "you can't equip rings in Elden Ring", until this very moment. This is it. This is the video I want to watch in order to learn about this game.
Finally someone did it properly. Lots of people use op ash of wars that have no correlations to fist weapons. Like hoarfrost stomp or fire of the redmanes.
I have a caestus only run on my channel it was the most fun I ever had with the game honestly. Spiked caestus? Nah, Regular caestus are king! Playing with these weapon taught me a LOT of things about the game and the way it *wants* you to play. Also, them bosses hitboxes didnt help at all haha Imo the caestus are intended to be used with blue dancer talisman and low load it was much easier than your palythrough at least. Loved the vid dante, great stuff!
I cannot believe you killed solider of godrick with just your fists, literally such a feat no man has ever accomplished or ever will again, you deserve a medal
The legend is back. I was just watching ur old videos and I realized how much u grown in just 2 years holy! Good job mate. U will always be my favorite youtuber❤
been following the channel for a long time, didn't know if you'd play this game. the fact that you played almost 70 hours of one of the most punishing games, and created a video with your usual editing style is ridiculous. keep it up, funny man.
Well what amazed me is, Dante just entirely defeat most of the bosses with just freaking single fist weapon because he just forgot if he could double-handed the weapon. Man is a Beast Lord
The similarities here haha. I’m running greatswords. I just picked the game up, and it’s my first souls game. I was aware enough to know I needed to level up. I spent close to a dozen hours just exploring and leveling up before I went to Stormveil. It’s awesome seeing myself get better at the game. The only boss I haven’t been able to beat on my first try is Draconic Sentinel. His phase 2 is a tad ridiculous
I forgot to put Gideon in the intro LOL
It gets harder and harder
daddy Dante at it again
Dante!!!!!
i love the way you look with facule hair
R.I.P
Imagine being a literal demigod who’s been unbeaten for millenias, only for some random dude to throw hands with you and you lose.
I have a moustache 😂😂
Bro i just noticed you have 3.5 mil in a single vid congo and 90% of your comments are devoted to dante
Even here on a 10k video thats dedication to youtube
lmao
at this point i feel like we are subscribed to the same people
My man put himself through 69 hours of Elden Ring just punching everything to death without summons, magic or ashes of war. He deserves a Maiden after all he put himself through.

He deserves freaking harem!
Also never throwing the dual-wielding combos.
There's one in elphael ;)

Meant to say the guy
Beeting him, lessgo
BEAR FISTS?!?
Bro had a stroke typing this. RIP
I don't know how you got this many likes. reading this was harder than eldenring!
I cracked up when he realized he can two hand the fist weapon and did everything up till this point one handed 😂
i was losing my mind watching him do it all 1 handed with a fist weapon

HOLY SHIT HE ACTUALLY BEAT SOLDIER OF GODRICK!??!??
Actually a mad man, hardest boss in the game and he beat him. Give this man an applause

No applause, he was obviously hacking, he killed the SOLDIER OF GOD, RICK

his subconscious was actually holding back his true power until he needed it most
The true God of Elden Ring.
This man is THE ELDEN LORD
Elden in the ring
He became the god when he beat God, Rick.
Zero Lenny's Torch Run is still more iconic.
Beating Fire giant 1st try is definitely an achievement that even some dark souls veterans can't say they did. 👏👏👏
I did
@@gigachadsam good for you
He gets easier if you use bleed
Actually wasn't that hard to notice that his leg was taking more dmg, like, if you see that one of the two legs was taking more dmg why would you attack any other place?

I was gonna attempt a fists only style build eventually, but now…I wanna do it even more.
I made a mega knight build, it’s pretty effective actually
Do it now

Honestly... Probably the most fun challenge run video out there. This narrative style was really enjoyable
i wonder how much effort goes into the videos as a person who does edit videos i understand how hard it is but you have the willpower to keep doing thats what i like about you
Margot has to be my favorite boss just because it’s sets up your expectations for the rest of the game so well and his move set was so fun to learn
Dante: no consumables
Also dante: healing seems fine

This is actually a nice self challenge , I tried it too but I can't even comprehend maliketh with fists, great job dante
Watching you single hand fist weapons literally broke me for almost 22 minutes
I relate to the draconic tree sentinel. I stayed up for almost 7 hours trying to beat him. I was so stubborn I didnt even try leveling up I just kept trying. I eventually did it but god. Magic build against him is difficult. Especially since I was new to the game

yesssss i have 600 hours in this game elden ring is the best game of next few years and im so happy to see you play it.
You can tell dante has big balls because not only has he tried to beat elden ring bare handed he also did a race against a RE4 speedrun god

Love your videos btw! They're hilarious!
This is a masterpiece and you are an artist, beating the living shit out of bosses with such elegance lol
Man really said "I have to use two hands for this one" against Maliketh. What a chad.
When the world needed him, he came
Even Dante had to admit soldier of god, Rick is overpowered
I wish he would have known he could have dual wield the fist weapons
He does it 10 minutes in

16:12 the +43 damage comes from the scaling of your weapon. since it was a fist weapon I assume it scaled with strength
@Toan Greenlow I don't think you know what sarcasm is
Dante is hands down the funniest gamer I’ve ever seen. You’ve earned more subscriber 🫡
You spent a full work week plus overtime on this challenge and I respect that.
Hot damn, he's back and he's playing the best game of all time.
the people who didnt struggle against godskin duo used sleep pot
Or Just summoned bernahl
surprised you clickbaited the whole thing. this isn't fists, its FIST WEAPONS. just a re series one trick pony
Can you not just enjoy a video with a slight challenge?
Actually the definition of a dedicated madlad bro, keep it up. You deserve a maiden after this
“ Oh the colonoscopies I’ll preform with this will be marvelous!”
Only on the Dante Ravioli channel
I have a caestus only run on my channel it was the most fun I ever had with the game honestly.
Spiked caestus? Nah, Regular caestus are king! Playing with these weapon taught me a LOT of things about the game and the way it *wants* you to play.

Just finished doing this in DS3 and planned to do it in elden ring next and ur videos pops up. Such a chad
I am so lucky a new vid from Dante and today is my birthsday 🤪
Quantum TV watching Dante take on varre bare handed and winning *🌚*
The fact your first playthrough you decided to do this challenge..... you madman
I cannot believe you killed solider of godrick with just your fists, literally such a feat no man has ever accomplished or ever will again, you deserve a medal
This was amazing,nice job dude,especially the montages MGSR music.
the answer to this is "yes, but it's very hard and skill, timing, and luck are needed"
Beautiful usage of The Perfect Steel of ZERO throughout the video.
great video dante
i hope you're close to finishing the randomizer video RE4
Buys a fist weapon but doesn't use both fists
Later, buys a second fist weapon but doesn't use both fists
Nothing like wearing a Cloak brand Elden Ring hoodie and watching one of the most entertaining UA-camr's
I like that this is the ONLY run I've seen where Soldier of Godrick even tries, which is why Dante struggled so much to best such an opponent
As A Giga Chad Faith And Strength Build ( which is one of the hardest builds to pull off ) I understand your pain Dante
This was absolutely insane and congratulations for being able to actually do something like this
pause exactly at 16:00 when you're trying the starfist... Look, there's another one on your hips
I waited 4 months for you to upload something about this game, the day has finally arrived lol
The legend is back. I was just watching ur old videos and I realized how much u grown in just 2 years holy! Good job mate. U will always be my favorite youtuber❤
0:41 as he expained the rules of the game you could hear the aticipation of pain in his voice.
Star platinum is very proud of you
And a gigachad says that
8:02 hahahaha
“AAAAAHHH-“ along with the music 😂👨🏻🍳🤌🏾
Ive been in quarantine in my house with covid. So im very glad you gave me something to watch. Great video!
This is one of the best elden ring videos I’ve seen
been following the channel for a long time, didn't know if you'd play this game. the fact that you played almost 70 hours of one of the most punishing games, and created a video with your usual editing style is ridiculous. keep it up, funny man.
Dante the only youtuber I know to actually make the challenge 3x as difficult than the title suggests.
this was the longest 1 month of my life i’m glad dante posted
I have mad respect for you the lengths you go to to entertain me is mad you earned my sub and like hope more people discover this channel
Ok this is the best video you have ever made. Hands down
Pov: you got a domino's mind ordering ad before the video
Well what amazed me is, Dante just entirely defeat most of the bosses with just freaking single fist weapon because he just forgot if he could double-handed the weapon. Man is a Beast Lord
From impossible to possible. Actually passed that. To the place where the possible and impossible meet. Dante, you are possimpable.
As the highway man would say: "I work with my hands"
Well Dante I don't know how you did it but his is my favorite video you've ever made and I've been watching for quite a while now!!!
When i started the video, i was sure that at the end of it, you'll tell as that you failed the challenge, i'm impressed
Man I missed you so much😩
Btw can't wait until 2023 when you recreate the og good old RE4 remake challenges❤️
As someone that doesn't care for souls games you make it interesting
dante doesnt upload much but when he does its always a banger
wow this video was worth the wait!
and it's actually a GREAT Elden Ring review video
Just rewatching videos waiting for our lord Dante to bless us with some new fire content
The similarities here haha. I’m running greatswords. I just picked the game up, and it’s my first souls game.
I was aware enough to know I needed to level up. I spent close to a dozen hours just exploring and leveling up before I went to Stormveil.
It’s awesome seeing myself get better at the game. The only boss I haven’t been able to beat on my first try is Draconic Sentinel. His phase 2 is a tad ridiculous
No buffs, dam what a beast
Would like to see a fight between this character and you kratos fist only character
The Spike Caestus is a great fist weapon. It's does bleed and poise damage. I have actually beaten several bosses with an upgraded version.
Holy shit he's back
