I got a bone to pick with whoever designed this terrible spell -__- and the biggest kick in the nats is that it got buffed right after finishing this playthrough!!!
To be honest, I think it's still one of the worst spells in the game even after the buff, but at the very least it has been improved... but only after doing this run. Same thing happened before with the Scarlet Aeonia. So if you want to see me suffer using another cool looking yet disappointing spell, check out my Aeonia only run: ua-cam.com/video/93q2-8cc-xA/v-deo.html
Oh and thank you Darian Clark for the idea of this run. Although I'm not sure I should be all that grateful for it...
And thank you Peter Gent for the lovely artwork

Oh and happy F%cking early Halloween...
what song did you use for the intro???
@@zapcV Iron Maiden - Dance of Death
@@PressContinue Very late but thank you for the shout out.
Also yeah, I did not expect you to go thru that level of pain and broken bones.
I do think at the time I was kinda clueless about the drawbacks of the Tibia Summons.
Elden Ring Devs need to buff that spell immediately in the next patch!
Is headless technically a skeleton or undead, also how come u didn't update fp
@@goodhoonter9882 Lucille the Headless? No she's an actual Ghost.
instead of the Tibia's Summons spell, imagine if we could call a giant skeleton from the ground for an attack not dissimilar from the Dragon Claw incantation
we def need 2-4 more death sorcery don't
A couple spells around the giant skeleton the Mariners summon. One that shoots lasers like the high end Tibia mariners. Or swipes with big arms like Dragon Claw for sure! Need more options for Int-Faith-Death builds.
Like what those red albinurics do where they summon the big skeletons, hell, I wish Tibia’s summons would just summon skeletons to assist.
@@silverbolt6699I think u r very cool
I ran through the game with a necromancer-esque character, and I was so excited to use this spell...was so disappointed with it when I got it and i got rid of it very quickly, so I can only bow down to your dedication and hard work getting through, because my god this spell truly is hard work.
You mean his "dead-ication"
@@sinjunmorris701 :o you're dead right i do
dark souls 3.5 oops i mean elden ring is just that disappointing
Rosus' Axe is the spell, but strong.
The tibia summons pissed me the hell off
6:18 "You would think people die when they are killed" - If only Morgott's projected weapons were available as spells, you could do a cosplay run of the author of this celebrated quote.
Tibia Summons should've worked like Malenia's phantom attack, summoning the three skele-friends consecutively and giving them minor tracking on their attacks before they disappear. This would've made them so much better in PvE, and at least somewhat annoying in PvP by making evading the spell more complicated than simply walking away
Phantom slash
You're talking about phantom skeletons
I said this about the Briar spells as well, it astounds me the disparity between spells in this game. You could Glinstone pebble from start to finish and the game wouldn't be that hard. Yeh other spells with higher FP costs, higher stat needs, and longer cast times are just.... inferior
Here's hoping one day some of the "non standard" spells get the buffs they deserve.
Edit: 48:35 wat? I have seen a lot of BS in the Goskin duo fight, but THAT takes the cake
And it happened in my aeonia run as well... as if that fight wasn't terrible enough
@@PressContinue he does that to me all the time. Even worse in co-op. He’ll start rolling mid attack animation.
Just for the sheer comparison, a Pebble only run would be a neat idea. Kind of like a control in a drug trial, it'd show just how truly bad the things he's using are.
Latest update decreases FP usage for almost all sorceries.
@@moniker2804 still more than glintstone pebble
Return of the Dying Dutchman
Don't give up, skeleton!
47:49 I'm pretty sure that the cracked pots are made from the same material as the living jars, so you're kind of using the bones of a living jar when you use a sleep pot.
It's a pretty common misconception but holy damage does NOT kill skeletons permanently. Only Specific weapon skills and spells do that.
Not true! Not only do those kill any of the risen undead, but also holy pots, which are holy damage, as well as anything that that is associated with the golden order in general.
@@wickedbutterfly5201 so... specific weapons, skills AND items
also no, not "anything that that is associated with the golden order". if you bash a skeleton with golden order seal it will come back. same with rings of light which are classified as golden order incantations.
@@parleyeon7951 well you don't attack with a seal that in case of the golden order seal is a mark on your hand. You still do it with your hand after all. Also I shouldve specified, my bad, apart from the lithany of proper death, no spells kill undead, but if you wanna be that nitpicky, EVERY weapon buffed by the Golden Epitaph kills undead properly. Same goes for Order's blade but that's basically it's sole purpose.
3:30 He P A R R I E D them! Even the one from behind!? XD Wow as if the spell couldn’t get any worse, it technically isn’t even a projectile, and can still be parried by Radagon.
Yah that's the issue I have with late game elden ring that just really ruins any fun runs I have going. The first two thirds of the game is all about trying new stuff and beating bosses in interesting ways with all the freedom you get. Then the last third is just "ok game has to be hard now otherwise it won't be a souls game." I get they were trying to make the game more appealing to people who haven't played souls but the difficulty should have come much earlier. That and your late game gear very rarely scales with the threat you are facing. In ds3 when you get chaos bed vestiges, it blows a whole clean through even the final boss, who's resistant to fire. The big fireball spell in ER is just a sneeze that gets slapped away. I'm not asking that all the late game stuff be objectively the best, but it needs to at least do more than the basic versions when it hits.
@@un7n0wing85 I mean faith builds get useless once you get to Farum which is why I never even tried it cause I know I will have to change it when I get to the late game yeah everything past Morgott is kinda more tedious than fun (except Godfrey)
@@Gary_a_normal_human_being str/faith builds are really good generalists for most of the game. You won't be able to use holy damage against the last few bosses, but I beat the game using a heavy great stars and a good handful of faith based buffing spells. ER is probably the best From game to do a str/faith build.
@@un7n0wing85bro the dragon lighting incants clean late game
No bones about it, this is one of the toughest challenges you’ve done yet!
I admire your patience to carry on with impossible runs like this. The real irritating thing about the fight is how rng heavy it is, as you've mentioned too. Awesome vid and editing, as always, cant wait for the next!
Honestly I'm amazed this spell and so many others in the game have not been buffed yet. There's a lot of interesting Playstyles that have yet to become popular or viable because of how bad some of these other spells are.
From doesn't give a shit; it's been a decade and people still haven't realised that yet?
If anything, I'm worried about them nerfing the spells that are actually good into the dirt like they did to DS2. They already smacked Stars of Ruin when it was really only a problem in ganks (which is a problem From seems entirely disinterested in fixing lmao)
From is hilariously tone deaf with nerfs and buffs, keep in mind the poise damage in PVP is what they nerfed about ROB, not the bleed or the power, the amount of stagger it did was the problem! buffs to make things actually usable never happen they just tweak numbers, and things that get nerfed are usually because invaders whined about it long enough, which is a horrible reason to nerf something when 90% of the game is PVE.
@@LilyApus Yep not to mention all can be dodged if you are good enough, but that's the problem alot people in soul games that includes myself are shit at the game and alot would complain about stupid crap to get it nerfed. DBD or Dead By Daylight being a great example where there's so many complaints that's not even funny to talk about. Or just any competitive games in general, regardless what game type. To me unless there's no counterplay or it's locked behind battle passes that normal players can't get that is very op, then people should just get good at the game and that's what I'm trying to do, instead of complaining about it to the devs.
@@Markus-jr6yv I actually really like magic in Dark souls and tried it in Elden ring, but every single time I do it I just remember how hilariously easy it is to dodge spells in these games and I quickly shift to something else, it doesn't really matter if something does 1k damage if I can just walk slowly to the left and "dodge" it now does it? melee weapons are much harder to roll out of if someone is good and knows how to roll catch but with spells you just can't do that because of casting times and projectile traveling not to mention 95% of all invaders I fight just spam running attacks with bleed weapons, but no magic is too strong apparently.
Wow you must have worked on this run a ton, a SKELE-TON. Love to see the Radagon tibia parry, still can hardly believe it. It was a blast to watch both the streams and the video, great work Press.
23:05 ''so i met up with waifu again so i could show her my bone- gratitude for giving me the spirit bell'' i love this guy
Yknow, I personally think Mimic attacking with the dagger is fine, considering he's wearing the Skeletal armor like you are. I mean, he's a bonehead AI wise, you could make the case he's a Bonehead in General
I like your reasoning 😂
"Welcome to the Bone-Zone."
Can't wait to watch this later.
I love your vids man! Why don't you have the creator checkmark?
@@Ashenboi 100K Subs 💀
@@Be_And Soon
I remember attempting something like this for fun. Upon reflecting I was supposed to be having fun, I decided to shelve the spell and use the rancors instead. I didn't stop using it in other peoples worlds though. Thank you for achieving my dream of a calcium-rich Lands Between.
I remember how disappointed I was with Tibia’s Summons. When I first got it, the description made the spell sound so cool……then I casted it for the first and frankly last time.
Was a real missed opportunity to make Death Sorceries just summon skelingtons.
Like; we have the spirit ashes and all. . . but the ones tied to those who whatever in death could've been a cool school of sorcery. . . oh; and maybe make the requirements not 80/80 for damage comparable to pebbles.
I almost wonder if the damage scaling on high end spells is broken. Something like the damage is doesn't scale until your stats are above the minimum requirements. That would be fine for spells that need like 15/20 int/fath but when you need around 40/40, the soft cap kicks in and your scaling gets stopped. I really don't know and it makes late game gimmick builds not work nearly as well.
@@un7n0wing85 scaling is all over the place in this game. Lava and death sorceries are all int/fth; but they require tons of investment for their staves. Then their weapons are either full int or full fth. . . so weirdly distributed.
its funny; if you go 80/80 for death/lava, the only weapon that scales with int/fth is the sword of night and flame. not exactly on brand for the whole death/lava stuff lol
Really does make me wish they'd just patch the scaling for those spells and staves to be a lot better at 123-150 levels; but it seems like with quality, they may have expected people to be running PvP at much higher rune levels.
The Godskin Spin animation cancel has killed me so many times that I could almost believe that it's intentional.
@17:38 when Radahn takes off I think you hit Leonard while he's underground (because of Zullie's video covering the attack ua-cam.com/video/gKAtNy6NO6g/v-deo.html) Not huge, but super interesting that Leonard might still technically have a viable hitbox while underground
19:36 So you can miss with six attacks instead of just three.
4:47 that's not a downside of the open world IMO. You can get all the basics and start your build without killing any bosses (at least not main ones) within the first 1-2 hours. Or you could choose not to and just go with the flow (for casual runs at least). That's an upside really.
Agreed
Most challenge runners: "And now we've unlocked this weapon, which makes the run substantially easier, so we'll just fast forward a bit until the difficulty picks up again."
Press Continue: "Now, this weapon would make the run easier, so we're not going to use it unless we absolutely have to. After all, I know how you like to watch me suffer.
This definitely had to be the MOST hardest run in your career bro, much love
At least one of the most annoying ones. I was really really really done with it at the end of the 4th stream.
@@PressContinue lol
@@PressContinue Hardest had to be Pupa...BTW Hey PC... they buffed Aeonia yesterday. I'm ready to watch Malenia rot if you've got the pupa motivation
On Consecrated Snowfields you dont need to kill the invader to activate the portal to Mohgwyn palace, you just despawn it by going out of its aggro range, then just go to the portal.
Sitting through the streams for this, it's easy to say you had a bone to pick with this run.
Huge Kudos for the Elden Ring Metal Band at 3:40
LMFAO
Song name?
Dance of Death from Iron Maiden fits just right for this. Nice video dude, much love
If you have Raw Meat Dumpling equipped, your Mimic Tear will also have it and be able to use it. It's very effective since the spirit summons are immune to status effects.
During the Godskin duo fight I did have those equipped. Although I never actually noticed the mimic using them to be honest
These streams were so much fun to watch
Really loved this idea! Keep up the amazing content!
been watching your videos for like 4 months just never thought about subbing until now. you make great videos man keep going king❤️💯
When I saw this spell I thought I'd get to like...summon skeletons. You know, like an ash of war that isn't restricted to bosses and setpiece fights. I have never been more disappointed.
i watched all the vods, but your editing just makes me need to watch the breakdown as well :)
oblivion moment
I’ve been watching your past streams on this over the past few weeks and I’m decided if I should keep doing that or watch this 😂
Love the Dance of death in that little montage, total banger took me by surprise 😄😁
I've been waiting for this for so long YESSSSS
I've been watching you for a while and it's amazing how much you have grown
The bone puns were gold in this video dude
Rarely have time to watch long streams, Ive been waiting for this
The dance of the dead intro killed me. I haven't laughed that hard in awhile.
The way the Skellies run makes me giggle every time
Bruh, that Skeleton Warriors intro hit me with so much nostalgia I almost turned into a skeleton myself.
another great video, keep it up!
I only have limited patience with people making fromsoft videos, and only respect a handful of content makers... now youre one of them. Fukken subbed
from streams i know this is gonna be good, stoked to watch it!
Your pun job was top notch 👌
the official *SPOOKY* run, cry your heart out limit breakers
The intro with Iron Maiden's Dance of Death was perfect!
That sped-up Dance of Death intro was wonderful :)
I feel like this is one of those spells where they had a really interesting concept but then realised they couldn’t really implement it in that way. Similar to the lil sentry fireball in ds3 that ended up being really awful despite the version that the enemy uses being so good.
Gg man looking forward to see more
really impressive run. really fun to watch! and the girls jamming out is always amazing :D
love your vids. do your thing my man.
Big congrats on finishing this run and ALL THE PUNS to go with it! From other videos, I have wondered, which was harder, writing all the puns, or completing the run... But for this one? I don't have to ask. (sad emoji)
I like the little text edits over the footage when something noteworthy happens! I wouldn't have noticed the Mimic Tear doing staff bonks unless it had been pointed out too, so I appreciate the notes!
PS - I don't know about everyone else, but personally, I wouldn't mind if some Dutch words appeared in these videos, it would really underscore how utterly "boned" you were feeling. And subtitles for translation, if you felt like it.
about min 23 so this is how "let me solo her" ended, well i guess this is how seluvius knew what was needed to enslave a god.
The blessed dew talisman and that holy greatshield could've been excellent additions to this run as they heal you over time, which tends to be very useful in long fights like these
Perhaps, but the blessed dew only heals 2 hp per tick, so that's not a lot. And the greatshield would have been too heavy
They’re great for almost every player but runs like these are probably so strict they don’t want to use them.
That PNG intro with the characters is ghe funniest shit I've seen in a long time.
I love your videos! Always appreciated in terms of the content and humour. Keep up the brilliant work…oh and the music intros are first class 😂❤
Would you by chance know the artist of the intro music? I'd like to hear the original as it sounded cool. Cheers
Shirou would be so confused....
"people don't die when they are killed?!? "
Great video as always Press Continue! I must say that out of all the From Soft runners you truly become my favourite, from your obscure references to your taste in good music. But most importantly I feel you always try to finish the challenge as it is. Sometimes runners when something is not particularly possible or there exist some sort of easier shortcut they take it. But you always suffer to the max haha! Keep up the good work!
Also I had an idea for ER run. You could only use Great Serpent Hunt Ash of War. That's the one which is on Serpent Hunter and stuns Rykard and Snek, so I wonder how that would work on normal enemies and other bosses hehe.
I don't remember if that was you, but someone even offered me money for that run. Which makes no sense because I tested it out and it hardly even qualifies as a challenge run. I killed the red wolf in only 2 hits. The serpent hunter is extremely powerful and the weapon art even has hyperarmor. Literally the only downside is that it's slow, so there would be an issue with that against Radagon or Godfrey for example, but nothing on the level like in this run or the aeonia only run. So, no that run simply wouldn't make any sense.
@@PressContinue Oh haha that wasn't me! But cool I see and I totally get that!
As I didn't tried it I thought that it wouldn't work aswel against nonRykard bosses!
Considering the recent buff they recieved, would you one day consider a video like this but with the briar sorceries?
You have top tier writing. I audibly laughed at so many of your stupid puns. Thank you.
55:07 And this is why you should usually collect all available Starlight Shards during these types of runs.
Oh man, nothing warms my heart more, than someone pronouncing Altus plateau correctly. I was almost convinced that everyone says "atlas". Thank you for making my day! Or at least in terms of elden ring
I actually wasn't even aware that people commonly called it the atlas plateau
@@PressContinue oh man you definitely haven't watched enough videos lol. I'd say a little more than half the time people say "atlas" and it borderline gives me an aneurysm XD
I now want a "Skellington" with a jar on its head so badly!
I was so sad the summons are so bad. Necromancer is usually my favourite type of spellcaster, but in Elden Ring it gets boring really quickly. You can only really spam Ancient Death Rancor, because all other death-related abilities are terrible.
Well technically death-lightning is really powerful
I don't normally comment but I watched the live streams for this run and I need to see the thrilling conclusions
I really appreciate every little DBZ Abridged reference. That show was sooo good
48:35 Oh nah, Foreskin Noble doing Stance cancels now
All these puns through the stream really tickled my funny bone
Absolutely love you used Dance of Death by IM in your intro
i saw the title of this video and thought: "there has to be a good BONE joke in here." never clicked a video that fast
Starting spooky season off with a bang huh? Well wonder what is planned for Halloween then if you are already using spooky skeletons now.
Damn bro you got the whole graveyard laughing
Ah, Elden Ring as The Overlord, wonderful
Yeah, new video!!!!! I've got an issue with the live (can't follow comments and thus I am not able to follow your talking😢) and so Ihave to wait for the editing of this form of the run...
But it's worth the wait, every second of it is pure bliss!!
Your skeletons did more damage than I did generally...
Ah, such is the fate of the faith build.
I live for your intros.
I'm sure most people noticed this, but the spell shoots a tiny, fast, invisible dagger that wherever that dagger is destroyed at the skeletons appear. The dagger is destroyed when it hits an object, enemy, or at a certain range (like most other projectile spells).
Thats why it gets caught on terrain and summons them in the air.
I find it funny that Tibia Summons was what convinced me to buy the game, because I didn't know spirit ashes existed and barely skimmed the fextra page.
1:04:28 Those words summarize the entire run
When you said the bony skeletony spell is worst that flower aeonia I knew I was in for a ride
I remember seeing the vods and thought “this video is gonna be bad…to the BONE!”
I sometimes wonder why it feels like From sometimes just makes stuff like tibia summons that just don't seem to work. I get there are a LOT of spells in this game, but it definately feels like some schools just get WAY more favor.
Elden Stars lover here I feel the pain of these other bad spells.. Like From you can't give something a massive requirement and then make it awful! Dreadful really
great video
I really enjoyed this run! Was very fun to see you succeed with this spell, i remember trying to use it on one of my firsts runs and it ended up being kinda dissapointing :(
Also! Just a thought, but, although its a bad weapon, I was sure you wouldve the Clinging Bone, it couldve come clutch at certain moments like when bosses were at low HP :0 Still, as always when it comes to you, a very fun challenge run, hope you keep making them :)
As I said at the start, only full complete skeletons counts, not bones or skulls. Also the clinging bone is just a regular weapon, so that wouldn't make sense to begin with
@@PressContinue My bad, mustve not paid attention at the start, still was couldve been a fun idea, anyways have a nice day :)
This run is too spoopy.
Love to see more
And there will be more
The funny part is when Necromancer Garris uses this spell on you, it DECIMATES you AND the hitbox is GIGANTIC.
I've been in a case where
a) I was outside of the attack range of the skeletons
b) Even if it DID hit me, it should've just been one skeleton's damage
c) I ended up getting hit by ALL the attacks, despite being NO WHERE near the other two.
Seems to be a trend that bad attacks are good but only if they are used against you
It got the Elden Stars treatment too, huh?
Oh man thank you for pointing out how booty that spell is, I used it once on my lich king cosplay lol.
Like literally 1 time b4 removing.
This was a damn good video. Everyone knows Northern Europeans can handle their drink. This guy would be fun to hang with and play video games.
“Smell my boney ass” 🤣 So glad I found you.
The dance of death edit tho XDDDD
Would’ve thought the Dutch were so funny I only thought they grew flowers and built windmills
Alexander on the drums? Vibe worthy
