12:43 It’s basically the int version of elden stars. Under perfect conditions it can do crazy amounts of damage, but it almost never works Also a lil tip for Malenia if you ever do this challenge again: The ranged briar spell works like the night comet spell where enemies cannot detect it. Not only that but it also does bleed buildup. Give that a try and see how it goes
Figured I'd reupload this vid cuz I think I finally found the audio issue. I also made some other minor tweaks. If you made a comment on the last version of this vid, I apologize. But they will live on in my heart forever. Also if you have any constructive feedback, I'd love to hear it. Cheers!
I can’t believe this video got so little views, I found your previous vid, loved it and then went straight to this one. It’s so funny, very entertaining and your editing is very good. I hope the best for this channel going forward and I hope one bad view count won’t discourage you.
Really awesome video , after six runs I finally tried a sorcery build. It is probably my second favorite build next to quality. It is incredibly satisfying melting a boss with comet azure or astel's meteorites. However , I do put some points in vigor. I don't have the time or patience to memorize all the bosses movements.
Putting Roiling Magma in Claps tier is such a gigachad move. I swear, nobody talks about it but it is one of the most fun sorceries in the game while also being genuinely amazing.
@@CytoK Awesome man, really looking forward to it. I love smaller channels like you that still have high production value and creativity! Keep up the good work!
I'm not sure how this would've effected your thematic rule for this video but if you held Azur's staff in your off hand you can get the 40 virtual dex from it while using your chosen staff in your main hand. Pair with radagon icon for a total of 70 virtual dex. Considering both prisoner and astrologer start with 12-14 dex, you are casting at max casting speed. I love using this strat as any sort of sorcerer. Great video, very big brain, I agree with your tier list having to use each of these time and time again. You're a true villain.
This was a great video, but I'd also like to take a moment and appreciate you using some of the Pyre ost in the video. Underrated game and underrated soundtrack.
Tbh the glintblade staff vs carian glintstone staff difference isn't very confusing. Glintblades are their own type of spell: floating swords. All melee carian sorceries use the other staff, and they don't boost pebble, shard, etc because glintstone isn't exclusive to caria, almost every staff has glintstone in it and most sorceries are made of glinstone
The Tibia summons spell is really cool and would be a great spell if they didn't miss so often. Does good damage, decent cast time, and good range, but they must be drunk or something cuz they hit like a foot away from my target every damn time!
Just came by your channel, and it's honestly so underrated. Can't wait to see where you take this in the future. May the algorithm bless you in the future
Damn, actually a really cool video concept and some good editting too. The intro was one of the better ones ive seen on Elden Ring videos. And yes, I greatly appreciated the drip. Idk why they all looked so good on MM?
Just letting you know this was recommended to me today. That is to say, I think you’ll be getting a lot more traffic on your channel in the next few days. Well deserved I think. Hopefully it’s not just a hunch!
I’m curious if this challenge could be done with incantations, would you be up for giving it a go? Loved the vid btw, it’s great to hear you go over why you chose each spell for each fight.
Actually I'm working on the incantation version of this vid currently. It's... a challenge. Lot of bosses are resistant to holy/fire damage and many of the incantations are buffs/heals. But it's definitely possible. Glad you liked the vid!
Hey Fantastic video and I think you really pointed out the problem with magic in the souls games. There are so many cool spells in these games but you’re incentivized to use the boring souls arrow variants since they’re the most powerful.
actually kinda sad you have this little subs and views, u have that energy and comedy from all the more famous elden ring players doing these kinda challenges, underrated channel, you earned a sub
u are very Awesome and u deserve way more views and subs and if i somehow was able to get 3 wishes from a genie i would use one to give you 1 million subscribers (depending on my situation at the time i may or may not have to use the wish for something else)
No haha, but I do remember that line. I was watching movie clips to find someone to model my game char after and I ended up just watching the whole Megamind movie - so I had to go with him
Great run! All in all, you could probably do this same run but for Incantations. P.S. Is there a reason why you never dual wielded staves? Passive Boosts from Staves work even if you're not using the Staff with the Passive Boost for casting the spells but instead another staff in your other hand. It's due to this mechanic that most casters use Lusat's Glintstone Staff or the Carian Regal Scepter as their main casting staff and have another Staff in their off-hand that gives the Passive Boost to certain spells.
Thanks! I wasn't aware of the staff mechanic. I knew you could dual wield staff of loss, but obv can only get one per run. I didn't know about the Lusat + other staff.
@@CytoK Yeah, dual Staff of Loss is insane due to the Passive Boosts of both Staves stacking and because the Night Comet already does ridiculous damage. P.S. If you plan to do this with Incantations, use the Erdtree Seal for casting the Incantations and use other Seals in your off-hand for the Passive Boosts.
I really hate Radagon; it is too OP for my taste, and Elden Beast was a disappointment for me since I felt the fight tiresome and not fun; at least for me.
@@CytoK 😂 You cast with the one with the best scaling and then keep the one that boosts the specific sorcery on the off hand. Fun video anyway, I like your wacky ideas for playthroughs ...
into the algorithm you go!!! it seems to be a trend to try and correct you on pronunciations. Therefore, makar is most likely ma-car, not maker. ruined the entire video. /s
Hot take I guess, the Carian Knight Armor is EXTREMELY UGLY! I will never understand how people like it so much. The sumb little antenna on the helmet, the fortune teller cloth looking thing on your shoulders/around your neck. It just looks bad. The gloves and legs are fine, but the chestpiece is one of the ugliest armors in the entire game.
@@CytoK My number 1 favorite or number one ugliest? I don't do fashion enough to have a clear favorite but if I had to spontaneously choose something I really love Rannis has and Blaidds armor, they also fit very well together with the white coat on Blaidds chest looking like snow, fitting for the white cold sorcery hat. For stuff I think looks bad, well probably mostly those armors that just make you look super fat. Or wait, just thought of something, Gofreys crown. Some UA-camr kept saying he LOVES it so much and I could never understand it. He specifically said he loved the hair it gave you and imo the hair just looks like you're an unwashed homeless neckbeard. About the Carian Knight armor, I think the chestpiece is WAY WORSE than the helmet even. I don't understand how people can like that half assed cloth around your upper torso. It looks like I wrapped myself in a fancy tablecloth instead of actually affording a coat.
@@ardynizunia9709 +1 for Ranni gear. I totally agree about Godfrey. I was very disappointed the first time I went to buy his armor cuz I'm a big fan of Godfrey but his gear just isn't good. Still think you're wrong about Carian armor tho (:
@@CytoK Well disagreeing is fine lol, I just can't wrap my head around people loving it THIS much personally. Can you take the littel tablecloth thing off of the chest piece by altering it? I actually don't know and that may fix it for me, because I only hate that cloth on it.
no new videos, sad
Hey. It's the Bionicle guy. 😮
Check again
really good editing, great video concept. Honestly wish nothing but the best for this channel
Very much appreciated
You said it
My man really replayed the whole game to get to Gideon just to dis him your a legend
Someone had to stop him
The fact you beat foreskin noble with Tibia fucking Summons, of all things, impresses me to an amazing extent
It was so miserable lol
12:43
It’s basically the int version of elden stars. Under perfect conditions it can do crazy amounts of damage, but it almost never works
Also a lil tip for Malenia if you ever do this challenge again: The ranged briar spell works like the night comet spell where enemies cannot detect it. Not only that but it also does bleed buildup. Give that a try and see how it goes
Huh had no idea about the bleed sorceries. Makes them slightly less terrible lol
I like that you actually completed other ”not as important” bosses too, every challenge run usually skips them
Thopp's sorcery sucking ass is intentional, IMO. It's a message on lost potential, and why it's important to cultivate non-standard perspectives.
Interesting perspective. Someone also said lore wise, it's a spell/Incant hybrid worthy of a conspectus which is neat
Figured I'd reupload this vid cuz I think I finally found the audio issue. I also made some other minor tweaks.
If you made a comment on the last version of this vid, I apologize. But they will live on in my heart forever.

Gotta be honest, it was a little discouraging but comments like this more than make up for it :)
Thanks man
Why yes, I'll gladly watch this again even if it's a reupload. Super entertaining even the second time.
Now that I fixed the audio, hopefully even better on the second watch. Either way, appreciate ya!

Any other ideas for “Elden Ring but only once”? Really fun series and I want to see it keep going
Currently working on Ashes of War :o
Probs gonna be more of a stream edit type vid like most other creators make but we'll see
Bro i stumbled across this channel, i cant get enough. Only 2 videos plz make more im addicted
Thanks man, doin my best
Back here for another banger video to watch while I eat my lunch. You owe it to your audience to keep pushing out great content like this!
Thanks! Hope you had a nice lunch.
Understandable, mustache man.
Honestly loving the elden ring content so far, cant wait to see more!
Thanks boss

100%, I knew it belonged in S tier the first time I cast it. Wish ER had more spells like it
Really hope this channel grows its fun, entertaining, informational, and the editing and quality is great wish nothing but the best for you

I didn’t realize your last video was your first, fantastic quality
Well, full disclosure, it was my second. But I hated my first vid so much I unlisted it :>
Appreciate the compliment

why is there not more views, this video is incredible

But thanks friend!
Funny commentary, great concept, excellent editing. Easy subscribe.

Hey, I really hope to see more of you, really loved your videos (that intro was sick 😂), you are funny and the editing is just incredible 👍
Thanks so much :)
Badass video, my boy keeps delivering quality product.

Thanks! I hope so too
18:28 Funny you'd speak of knifes cutting butter, while using a literal ice knife to cut frozen butter (X
They stood no chance
Really fun video, great job. The "only once" idea is quite interesting, so I hope you do an "Incantations only once" too.
In the works (:
hope you have another upload soon, love the content
I'm tryin bro, thanks for the support
Only Ranni's hat buffs ice sorcery. Also the Scepter is Rennala's, and buffs Full Moon sorcery.
keep making videos bro, very entertaining
Thanks!

goated content and humor
appreciate ya
Awsome video, please do more
(: Thanks
These vids are soo good and you have a great voice
Wonderful comment, thank you!
Really excellent video, these runs aren’t easy at all and require tons of research. Heck you get a thumbs up for the Ranni skip alone.
Appreciate that friend. Definitely getting some practice in on Google sheets lol

This is very epic
Very cool! So incantations or ashes of war only next? Also I'm surprised you didn't try Rhykard
incants next!

Question: was using mega kind for the thematic build based off of the
“You just lack presentation!” Line from megamind lmfao
No haha, but I do remember that line.

Should've been only being allowed to use any spell once period. Being able to use a spell for an entire encounter makes thing trivial imo
U should make that video and report back to me when you find out it's impossible

Thanks!
"terra magika not great" I understand it's not great for this run but in regular play terra magika is pretty potent
For sure, 35% buff no joke

Ranni's is better. If I said the opposite, I misspoke
Dude... you're aware that you're going to have hundreds of thousands of subs?
