Fun fact: the best way to counteract a caffeine addiction is by using St.Trina' Torch
I can confirm
I also heard this. An excellent suggestion
Interesting you say that, I just started lowering my caffeine consumption.
HE DID IT
False. Mixing an upper and a downer will make you go hollow.
We need a mod that just shouts the name of the host every 30-40 seconds at Chase
In the voice of the crow from Demon Slayer.
"I don't remember the name of the host, why do so many people us the trick mirror"
look, the invader has been tricked
I do enjoy the irony of the trick mirror actually backfiring horrendously during this playthrough because Chase is actively going after the phantoms first.
Does he not know the utility of it? Because I always trade roles with the trick mirror when I'm helping my brother on his playthrough that way at least if they kill me the game won't end and I can just rejoin@@MINTY_FN
@@MINTY_FN I mean if he kills the host either way, it didn't really backfire so much as just not change anything. They would probably prefer this way than being systematically slaughtered one by one by the menace that is Chase.
i use because of the fashion part of it, i like to se my outfit without the yellow effect
Chase at the beginning of every invasion: "That's a lotta words. Too bad i aint reading them."
Your invasion at 25:40 were my brothers! I reconized your build when i was watching them; your shield on your back and your banished knights halberd with flaming strike, i could've been there, but i either wasn't summomed or i died before you invaded, after that i was waiting for one of your videos with that specific invasion, luckily enough i was right
Edit: thanks for the likes!, I didn't realize my comment got this many😁
It was a cool fight !
Legend has it this lad was once a disciple of Giant Dad himself
They grow up so fast... 🥲
Hello everyone and chase! Some Combos that are very effective for True combos, Roll catching and applying status effects:
-Claymore/Banished/knight greatswords:
1. Running light + Heavy attack
2. Running light + Back step + Light attack
3. Running light + Heavy attack + Impaling thrust
4. Running light + Heavy attack + Piercing fang
~The 4th combo has the highest damage.
-Zweihander/Greatsword"Colossal": Running heavy + Heavy attack
-barbaric roar Katar: Running heavy + Heavy attack (True Combo, cannot be fully avoided)
-Greatsword "the colossal one"(Only this moveset): Crouch poke + Heavy attack
-Nightrider's Glaive: Running light + Heavy attack
-Phantom Slash:
If the skill is active, the phantom will attack the enemy even if you get hit. (using the shard of alex will mostly make the trade a win for you)
Locking on a target when activating the skill and switching to another one will make the phantom hit the 1st one while you attack the 2nd. ~This skill has many other combos and tricks
-Nagakiba: Heavy running + Heavy attack
Cheers!
Damn shame we can’t save comments for later on YT, thanks for sharing.
What is this masterpiece doing in a yt comment section lmao
Thanks for sharing the knowledge
if you unlock with the knight great sword you can get a three hit light attack true combo by hitting normally, then turning left and then right. The place the hitboxes appear on that specific sword are a little different, making this possible. (I think its technically possible with the other great swords but prohibitively difficult)
I’ve spent more time watching chase the bro than actually playing Elden ring
41:00 "if you dont wanne hear it, paus for a second".......🤔
Is it safe to unpause already? I've been waiting for hours.............
I commented the other day on one of your videos "Dragon Roar, Maw and Claw are basically impossible to interrupt due to their hyper armor values" Chase goes like 5 times trying to trade into these and BONK! lol.
Petition to fight Malenia with claymore (any ash is ok).
Can't believe the series is ending soon. I'm gonna miss it. Also "nom nom nom nom"
That phantom at 25:42, Pushy_Vegan420, was absolutely cracked, way better at the game than just about anyone ive seen Chase invade
Yeah I noticed he was really patient with his rolls, he was hardswapping the full bloom garb to heal and hardswapping weapons, definitely not a standard sunbro, I guess he's a red usually but was helping his friend
Yooo, you're talking about my brother!
I was co-oping with him and my other brother "Abysswalker", but I unfortunately wasn't there when chase invaded
I just want to say that I've absolutely loved this entire series. I've looked forward to catching the new video every morning. Just like when I was a kid watching mickey, donald, goofy and pluto, I don't want the show to end. 😭
"You will not deprive me of my money." 😅
I got invaded by somebody (not Chase, they were using an entirely different build) who was doing a PvP Runes Only thing as well (at least, I would assume they were since they were named "PvPRunesOnly")! It's really cool to see how folks can influence a community like this!
Excited to watch the final in the series and bummed it's coming to an end!
9:00 I've played through the game at least a dozen times now and had no idea that ladder was there. God I love FromSoft games, you're always finding new stuff.
You get a lot of invasions in the Yelough Anix Tunnel. Also some great stones in there
Excited for the finale!
There have been so many high quality invasions around this rune level in the past few parts, the one at 25:40 is my personal favorite of this video!
I think Str/Arc with Poison Mist setup for the Mushroom Crown buff and Bleed support would be pretty cool, especially since Mogh's Trident and Marais Executioner's Sword are Str/Arc based.
Mm yes, but the mushroom crown is bad fashion, too sweaty.
@@phantomprince4278 That is blasphemy against the Mushroom
Chase, please make a "Baby's first invasion build" tutorial video for players new to Elden Ring invasions. I'm planning to make the switch from Dark Souls 3 invasions and I would love to get the base understanding of Elden Ring invasions before I make the leap. Pretty please with sugar on top...
Loved this series! The lower levels were awesome when you had to battle high level phantoms with non fully optimized builds - nerfed you enough to *almost* even the playing field. Maybe consider keeping a low level build for those types of invasions!!

Seek runes. Larger, more powerful runes.
Seek the queen, that is the only way.
Lest the wizards swallow you whole... As it has so many others.
Your luck with the BKGS, reminded me of the first Cleanrot Knight I killed in the Haligtree, dropped his sword, helmet, gauntlets and greaves. I sat there for like half a minute trying to process how I got almost all the drops in one kill
I feel like it will take solid 3 - 6 months until FS ballances the new weapons for PvP, we are in for some crazy times again.
I like the trick mirror specifically for the fashion. My elden bling, if you will
46:33 The fact that the host and his friend forgot that the Recusant Finger exists and realized too late that Chase had already moved. Perfect 😂
Been waiting all day for you to drop the next one chase 👍
Your running commentary during invasions gives me Princess Bride vibes, and it's so good.
You are using Moonveil against me, ah? I thought it fitting considering there are two of us?
Naturally, you must expect me to attack with twinblade.
Naturally, but I find that fighting naked cancels out the twinblade. Don't you?
Unless the enemy has studied his bleed... which I have!
I am going with the life steal fist keen raptor talon, with scholar's armament, Int/Dex/Vigor spec I saw on your channel. Been playing it the last few weeks and having a lot of fun. Loving this series and excited for the DLC!
Dude, I’m goin through a break up right now these videos videos are like all that keeps me goin💀 keep up the great work !!
Chase, you can access the Game Session card on the ps5 to see how many people are in the session as soon as you get the “invading another world” message. It also shows an icon showing who’s hosting that session. Very useful in invasions
OMG im here early! Usually I'm asleep or getting up and going to work when ya upload so i watch the vids in the morning. Been binging your level from pvp series
I'd be stoked to watch another run to level up a character (maybe a filthy wizard??) where you don't do the PvP restriction and just try to get to 150 as fast as possible
Would also love to see a godslayer cosplay video!
Wizards mentioned at least 5 times:
15:19 And the Wizard teammate
15:59 Just cuz the Wizard is periodically using moonveil
29:55 Hey Wizard, I dodge your Wizardry
30:12 Yeees, bring the Wizard this way
Since I started counting there were 4135.2 mentionings of Wizards across 347 videos.
Bonus:
26:08
Chase my bro are you going to stream the dlc?
I am indeed!
@@ChaseTheBro HYPE!!!
Hey Chase,man I really enjoy watching you, I think you are the best player in PVP.
On the Godskin Duo, keep attacking the spot where one dies, and it will continue to drain the overall boss HP bar for a bit
You put me on the halberd/thrusting sword combo. So good for roll catching
The Godskin noble is honestly extremely easy and very fun to parry.
We 9 days away now!! Soo hype!
Missed the Ancient Stone after Godskins Duo, the one that is up the pillar after taking two rights from the bottom of the elevator that take you to Alexander
It would be interesting to see how you're going to use some of the new weapon classes added by the DLC
someone's probably already said this but, you can continue to hit the godskins during the death animation and it still does damage. Also things like rot and poison apply to both individually, so if you rot/poison them both it may do double damage, but I'm not sure. whatever the case may be, its a good way to do damage to one while fighting the other.
Soon i shall binge all of these at once i can't wait
5:10 dude said honorable 2v2 like that was honorable 😂
I have an RL90 dex/arc build ready for the DLC... planning to run 200+ discovery and see what neat things drop.
Fun fact for the duo fight, you can attack the body of either noble or apostle after killing each one for extra damage to the combined boss health bar 👍🏻
Hope they allow cross-platform at some point. Getting invasions would be so much easier with a bigger player pool.
When getting myself summoned as a yellow for randoms I'll sometimes put on the host trick ring if we are in an area/doing a boss i am particularly well versed in.
Gotta show off the fashion souls
7:43 I just defeated that dragon at level 120 with my mimic summoned once I got it to half. I feel so inadequate seeing chase bully it😂😂
He's absurdly good at both pvp and pve. He makes it look easy
Dex Arc multihit for my first DLC run. Extremely excited for new weapons!!
"Ooo you had a teammate, poop". Lmao!😂
Rivers of blood and hand of malenia OLP with a radahn armor wearing bloodhound fang and jellyfish shield host is too funny
Once this is over I'm curious to see the playtime on this character. Given the restrictions.
Also, what would you consider to be the pre-dlc "meta" level to head into the doc and invade?
black knife showcase is always top tier
i highly recommend the dismounter or omen cleaver with blood infusion and spinning slash. the full ash instant procs bleed
Chase you should get the gravity AOW. It would of helped on the elevator for when that dude fog walled you 33:47
DLC build will be Dex/Fai on my newest character I made a week ago. Looking forward to using a Light Greatsword asap
Strength/faith for DLC - for me it gives the best variety and access to the funnest weapons like the ringed finger 🤘plus I think a lot of the weapons in the DLC will be strength/faith!
Hi Chase! Are you going to do Placidusax? I didn't see you fight him, but I might've missed it?
like others mentioned 25:40 was definitely some higher skill invasion, guys still got outplayed, but a great display of skill nonetheless on both sides
Ummm... something something saint Trina's torch I guess
Some people like the trick mirror cuz they like being the proper color when they’re summoned instead of being orange, some people like the drip and not the frankly horrendous phantom color
28:43 wait how did you not get the phantoms runes? In your previous level thru pvp run, you were still getting phantom runes even after killing them like a full 1-2 seconds after. Maybe it varies based on connection, or something has changed since then?
Runes come out when a character's death animation is finished, but the death animations and its durations are varied that it depends on what type of damage the character receives before they die. Specifically speaking, the animation of a tarnished-like character who dies of fire damage is rather short, which applies in this case(the invasion at 28:43)that the host was in fact counted to be dead.The objective for the invader was then considered fulfilled, which triggered auto-disconnection and no more runes gained.
29:30 “Oh my god, there’s a naked person. This could be good😏” 🤣
17:37 such a funny cryout
i cant wait to use the beast claw weapons... i need that bloodborne feel again. (light greatsword too)
Nice video as always, cheers
The fact that you havent run into a single squad using the chainsaw glitch is crazy
sad its coming to the end, won't you will beat placi in farum azula as well? Since you are going for malenia, excluding the ashen capital ones I think they're the only ressemblance bosses missing.
"why do so many people use the trick mirror"
Because if you don't your character looks like a piss elemental.
From games turn the character tint up to eleven and it looks barftastic. And especially when people co op they often want the D&D LotR adventure thing and being a sentient mustard doesn't help that vibe. I'd so much rather have like a glowey outline around the character, but still with the normal armor color/shading.
20:29 Chase: GIMME YOUR LUNCH MONEY!
As a phantom i often find hosts die way too quick to reds and i rather use the mirror to attract invaders. Which works pretty well even it reduces one talisman choice but worth it.
dual light weapons do immense damage with those consecutive hit talismans + exalted flesh + physick and whatever else. Even daggers can delete your hp withe same set up
What is more likely to happen, Chase remembering the host's name or him finally using St. Trina's Torch?
Also when fighting the Foreskin Duo, you can keep on hitting the despawning one a few times for a little bit more free dmg and status buildup.
Chase: I don't read
Also Chase: Greets hosts with their name...
19:57 falling on his head into R1 true combo.
I’m curious, could you use an eye tracker one day?
St. Trina's Torch is a top tier weapon for invasions
You beat me to it lol
Did he pick it up?
@@Chwiztid no
@@Chwiztidof course not
I love this man
Pro tip: the foreskin arena is just the exact size to be covered by a chainsaw, so if someone wants to stall you, they can't escape!
I feel like many use the trick mirror for the fashion. Maybe thats my bias speaking, as I've never been a fan of the non-host glowing effect in souls games.
For the last part you could also kill placidusax, doesn't really give you anything but pretty cool fight imo
you misspelled trinas torch
That first ancient dragon fight in azula was one of the most annoying bosses for me to get past. I beat it recently, but it took me ages.
Then a couple days ago I was watching a buddy's screenshare and the dragon flew itself off the cliff and died in the first 30 seconds. 💀
Something so effed up about you chasing two naked moonveil enjoyers with a gargoyle twin blade just cutting them down
I laughed at the name derperton knowing full well i have one named gooberton 😂❤
41:09 In my city, I discovered two children named Gael, when I asked one of the mothers why the name was given (expecting a reference to DS3) I discovered that the reason was because I had seen someone on TikTok with that name. Pure disappointment.
you should do an april fools lets plat where you run a group with Lost and get invaded
Kinda whack that Bernahl has no invasion dialog. He was in the game from the very start, feels like he should at least acknowledge invading us.
Farum Azula was my least favorite zone my first couple times in it but it's become one of my favorites in the last couple years (:
Aww I was hoping you would end it on day 21 per the release date of the DLC
chase can you run a deathblight build with double shotel and fias mist. since the shotels damage with AoW is already very hard where they die before getting deathblight you can use non upgraded version which gives them a false sense of safety before gettin impaled :3) i can drop you the 2nd one if you need it btw
On the one hand the trick mirror is working because it's tricking you, on the other hand you end up killing the host more often than not 😂
There's 2 ways to tell if the phantom is high level:
1) They're tanky / have 2k HP withOUT armour (if they're tanky WITH armour it's just because they're wearing armour)
2) They have end game gear like Maliketh / Malenia and have over 1500 HP
that chip but didnt stun thing seems to be hapenning more frequently or maybe im just now noticing it happen to me more
I think a build with Arcane would be best for going through the DLC soley because of increased item discovery
I’m wondering what are the body sliders for Chase’s characters. Really like those proportions fit to the armor.
I personally use the trick-mirror solely for the drip.
