The tortoise barking is such a nice touch. Anyone who's played will know, anyone else will be confused to heck and assume it's random.

Could this be dog?

Sword of Night and Flame: I'm the best weapon in the game
[Patch 1.03 enters the chat]
Miyazaki: 🤣🖕
it is still good
@@cymikgaming1266 Unfortunately the nerf was a little too heavy handed. The laser beam hitbox is very misleading now since the visual effect is larger than the hitbox, makes it very frustrating at times. It was always useless in PVP as well so they went a little overboard with nerfing it in PVE.
Moonveil, Moonveil, Moonveil!!!
Comet azur being just short of hitting its target is the most relatable, disappointing yet hilariously comical thing. Thank you
Not comet azur; night and flames r1
@@Hirotoro4692 That is just a small comet azur
That's why I prefer the fire.
The same thing comes with Crucible knight dash horn i swear i hit somebody with it only when they walking almost right in front of me, in the coliseum every time when i use it everybody, and i mean EVERYBODY know the exact max range of this spell and every time when i dashing at them i stops right in front of the enemy which make the situation like this ("-_-) ( ̄ヘ ̄;) the most common result...
They nerfed the sword, it used to be really good with long range
When that dragonfly interrupted him every time... I felt that in my soul
And that, my dude, is where your souls dropped....to a dragonfly.....
That’s how it was when I was first learning to use dragon breath attacks too. so many awesome abilities in Elden Ring have such INCREDIBLY slow windups. 😂😂
I was going to say the same thing! LOL
It always feels slower when you need it most
Giving me monster Hunter PTSD
I was expecting him to fail at using the sword after picking it up because he didn't account for the stat requirements, but this was even better
I was expecting this or something which referenced a patch "Balancing" it.
Same, though this also probably means his current build probably sucks if he was able to use it right off the bad.
Stat requirements for said sword is actually fairly low. Sadly. However the true beast of the game. Blood River. Or whatever it's called finally got nerfed, hard. And I loved that katana. It helped me slay the elden beast.
@@ericdavis8910 I had slain malenia first try with it
@@ericdavis8910 "i loved that katana" also him *doesn't remember what its called*
ladies and gentlemen your average Elden ring Casual new to the souls series
The beam barely missing the boss is the most relatable part 🤣
No matter how many times you hear it, Elden Ring's main theme will give you goosebumps.
You must love the Castle Crashers theme.
this is a divisive issue but im on your side.
Not really, generic trailer music. It doesn't even fit into theme of the game
@@UristMcKerman In other news: You didn't play the game.

The barking tortoise hit me way to hard 😂
Yeah it's genius
Sir, that is a dog.
What tortoise? All I see is a dog.
Behold, Dog!
obviously it was a dog and not a tortoise
You can have the best sword in the game, but you can't substitute having the best game with a sword.

"It is not the weapon it's the Tarnished."
~ Pete Mitchell, The Maverick Pilot
Honestly the best series of videos I’ve seen sums up the game perfectly…love the animations 👍🏽
Them: "BEST SWORD IN THE GAME!"
From Software: Aaaaand its nerfed...
*balanced ;)
I mean its the best one because its broken as hell, now its one it should be. A budget Comet Azur with low budget cost at the price of being stuck with Int/Faith stats which isnt bad if your using the weapon more often and already building the build in mind.
Still strong enough but now feels balanced as heck without boring you, can still take 4-5 fullpowered beams for some easy bosses without proper setup and hitting all procs. The slimmer and more agile ones can still be hitted but more time consuming with it.
Overall, still good post nerf. But not as good as pre-nerf or bonkers like stacking stat ailment procs and weapons that can proc them easily. Still the best Int/Faith weapon for aggressive players.
Mmmmmmm...no. Best sword imbalanced.
Game: and now you got your self the best sword in the game
Fromsoft: Aaaaand its now nerfed
You: what do you mean?
Fromsoft: it sucks
😂😂😂😂😂😂 winner
Using the sword poorly after getting it was SOO on point.
Did people actually have this problem? Cause the moment I got it, literally everything just started dying.. like.. spamming Comet Azur was how I obliterated everything to the point I felt guilty cause it felt like I wasn't really getting the full "Difficulty" of Elden Ring.
Best sword in the game does not equal best player in the world.
Also the reaction to the turtle talking had me in tears.
literally any weapon: **exists**
every Elden Ring UA-cam channel: “look at this SUPER RARE OP weapon! ONE-SHOT any BOSS!! this BREAKS the GAME!!!”
So true, the sword of night and flame is good and all, but it was never the *best* sword in the game.
@@Eternal_Placidity what was better for PvE pre 1.3 than this?
@@Eternal_Placidity Before it got nerfed, it was the best weapon in the game and it wasn't particularly close.
@@MrDNMock
Absolutely this.
The weapon art could be spammed and the beam dealt up to 5000 damage.
The weapon was incredibly broken and could melt through anything.
@@Eternal_Placidity Something a Night and Flame sword user would say to deflect how carried he was. :P
I look forward to these like a Saturday morning cartoon. Thank you for all your hard work.
Bro same, the joy they bring me
Don't forget the cereal
Your animations are so relatable. Only a true fan of this game could have come up with these. So good.
I'm amazed he was able to make it through the finger creepers and spectral knights to get to it.
Nahhh if you Souls Run the left side of the gardens + knights, you can skip it all. The knights only spawn at the start and on the path to N&F they only spawn if you walk back.
You can flat-out just _book it_ through Caria Manor and make it, relatively unscathed, all the way to Loretta. The only real problem areas are the wolves, the pagers, and your own stamina bar, beyond that, you’re basically untouchable if you put ever the slightest effort into not running directly into the mobs.
With Great Sword... comes Great Training.
No joke though, Ruins Greatsword can fall into that category, it won't make the game a cakewalk but my god its ash of war hits like a truck.
lol, it's how I beat Melania an hour ago. Even she isn't immune to being isekai'd into the afterlife via truck-kun.
(that and someone firing a massive flesh-melting laser while she couldn't stand up)
just get close to hit the ash of war AND the hit
just noice
How about a lighter sword with similar ash of war and it heals you?
my dad hits like a truck :(
Yeah, it's really nice. Played first time with it. Only had to change it to something else for Malenia.
Immediately laughed at the turtle/dog joke. Been so long since I've played that I forgot about that whole thing.
There is something truly special about this series. The timing, the framing, the everything... it's just so perfect.
Thank you.
The next one has to be simply titled “Moonveil”
and then simply "Rivers of Blood"
I was thinking the same thing, but what kind of meme can the moonveil fail the player?
@@elementoflight6834 it was nerfed unfortunately
The GUTS SWORD w Frost Aspect and That Hounds Flip Heavy Attack
@@rayvincyful1 unfortunately? You prefer to play a obviously broken weapon?
Bloodhound fang carried me through my first playthrough.
Dude start new game plus, get a second bloodhound fang and power stance them, the damage and bleed build up is insane
I was about to post a similar comment, but I'll upvote you instead :D
@@cinders5305 Yep! Looking to do that after I do my mage playthrough. I can't wait to melt bosses with comet azure and meteors. And then spam bleed buildup with dual Bloodhound fang.
I haven't finished the game yet but this sword is my go to against bosses, then I use the rest just to have fun.
I'm still on my first run (taking a break to finish up Bloodborne and probably Dark Souls 3 instead), but I've been using that one since I got it. I love a good quality weapon that scales slightly in favor of dex. I also haven't been using a shield at all since after my first hour or so of playing.
It is by far ONE of the swords in the entire game
I rate it out of 10
It''s very easy to stumble into out of date Meta, once upon a time that sword was the best.
one might say its one of the swords in one of the games of all time
It was never the best xD raw stats aside, it’s moveset sucked.
Dumbe soft brain UA-camrs just look at the numbers before screeching their opinion. Best sword in the game at that time was rivers of blood, then Moonveil. Now it’s just all thrusting swords xD
@@Garl_Vinland i LOVE crushing moonveil spammers in PVP. As soon as they come up against someone who can actually roll out of the way they dont know what to do. They be like "oh shit...i actually have to use some skill now???"
@@Mark-rt1jn Then you fight a GOOD Moonveil user who uses the WA like Unsheath and you realize the weapon was so good spammers could fake it.
This was my experience. Got hard walled on Margit. Followed a couple guides for quick power. Used Night and Flame until i respecced for bleed
👆👆👆Thanks for the comment, Expect more videos soon. Send me a direct message.. I have a gift for you.......🎁
I was honestly quite surprised to see that the Tarnished had the right stats in order to get the sword skills out.
EDIT: He has beaten Rennala, so that would have been a great opportunity to hand her the Marvel Beer.
Would have been a better beginning of the video instead of recycling the episode 1.
The worst story could be he has not done with Rennala but got double 24 by upleveling. Then he would find himself trash and have no way to fix it.
Y'all have such marvelous cinematogrophy. The dragon whacking aside the laser and then doing tremendous off-screen dragon violence contrasts nicely with the opening scene of the tarnished getting smacked around by everything. The sound design is excellent.
Carbot, I absolutely love your sense of humor, especially moments when you just want some absurdity to take place, and even when it was made just like I anticipated - the details of art and sound production and it's simplicity (in a good way) never cease to amaze me
The fact that he was out of range when he shot at the dragon killed me…. I really have to play this game, must be fun to take part in this suffering 🤣
I got it after it was nerfed. I started wondering "If this is the nerfed version, what was it like before??"
got it one week before it got nerfed, omega broken let me tell you :D
Oh yeah. The nerf was a flat 30% damage reduction to the weapon skill. So your experience but one third stronger.
The nerf was substantial but not too bad. If anything, I felt the nerf more in the flame part of the sword of night and flame rather than the meme beam part. The loss of some poise was much more noticeable. But it makes sense.
Before nerf was THE definitive sword. Almost 800 damage at +10, Comet Azur with huge range and Flame ash of war all in one. Totally broken.
Absolutely broke before nerf.
I don’t really see it being played anymore
Please do a "Radahn Is Easy" at some point, the potential with the horse is limitless

Man I remember finding this thing randomly day 1 and fell in love with it immediately. Not because of how good it was but because of how fucking cool it was to find a legendary weapon with such awesome weapon arts.
Was already going for faith build but had to spend few hours farming Vulgar Militiamen to get int high enough.
Btw Fundamentalist builds are actually pretty great, there's a talisman that has high scaling for both int and faith.
Turtle: (A long pause) **BARK!**

Thanks alot!!! Got you something !!! DM!! 🎮..#🕹️
Was expecting the bear to make an appearance just out of spite for the player
LMAOOOOOO THE TURTLE BARKING. Only people who played the game will understand that
Dog. 😂
dog!
This very much sums up a lot of games. People post videos about the "best" item, ability, e.t.c. However in reality unless you are going for records chances are your skill will influence how well you do much more than optimum weapon choice.
You guys are so amazing, even though it's a funny animation but you have captured the essence of ER so well. 🙏
The developers really should seriously think about replacing "You Died" with "You Suck" in certain scenarios and after a certain number of deaths... would be hilarious
I saw one streamer with a death screen that said "BUMMER DUDE"
Or “you should probably just give up”.
The episode where he's in the mine with that jumping along the wall bit? I had that exact experience AFTER watching that episode, thinking, "I got this!"
That area needs a "you suck" message, especially if you fall by accidentally jumping backwards instead of sprinting.
(Also, turns out it's super easy to do while naked.)
Or change it for April fools
@@brandonmoya3322 YES!
0:01 Sweet memories of the first episode
0:14 Turtle gives some motivational speech. Sadly most of them do not talk. Only Turtle Pope talks.
0:19 Also they are universally accepted by every player to be dogs.
0:22 Yup... That is and will be done a lot.
0:24 And the sword they talk about here is a Sword of Night and Flame. It was VERY OP because with just base stats required for it it's two special attacks were EXTREMELY powerful and mowed down almost anything. It was broken in PVE.
0:34 Carbot has some hopes and dreams. And this sword works like this. When you get into a special stance you either press normal attack or strong attack button. Normal one casts Comet Azure while the strong one creates wall of flames. Very powerful. Very fun. Very broken.
0:50 This sword can be found in Carian Manor. You can teleport to one of the later Sites of Grace if you were already there. Go a bit backwards and jump down on certain tower and inside it is a chest with this sword.
1:04 But... There are few flaws of this weapon... 3 in fact. First off. It takes a while to charge those special attacks.
1:20 Second... It has limited range.
1:25 Aaaand it was nerfed to the ground.
1:27 Git. Gud. Casul.
bro, we watched the video. nothing was unclear
What was this comment supposed to achieve?
@@skilletborne But not everyone can immediately understand all the references, so it's just nice someone explains every detail open for others. I, for example, didn't get that beam reach with the dragon until I read the comments.
Thank for you doing this every time. As someone who doesn't play Elden Ring, this gives a whole lot of context to appreciate the video more.
@@derArchivar. Not everyone who watches it has played the game though, or is as into it as some people are, so these comments (which have been left on just about every animation) turn out to be pretty helpful overall. Hell, I'm a big Diablo 2 fan, and even then there was still some parts I never would've guessed without these comments.
This is my favorite cartoon channel by far, You guys always capture the perfect picture and present it in such a funny way!! Always makes me laugh 🤣🤣🤣
Ahh, I was wondering why I love these animations...they remind me of castle crashers
This series captures my ungodly failure throughout the game so accurately
Frankly, I'm just amazed he's got the stats for it.
Yeah, I get that sorcery is the cerebral big-brain magic type for colossal nerds in Burger King cosplay, but maybe sometimes I just want to shoot lasers instead of fire. Or rocks.
You can shoot golden lazers with Faith tho
You got Frenzied Burst. Yeah, it's still flames, but it makes you into X-Men's Cyclops.
@@ActivelyVacantI Was talking about Placidusax Ruin
@@gladiumthebrazilian7803 king Ghidorah attack lol, such a cool spectacle.
*Burger King Cosplay* The scholars of Raya Lucaria frown on your shenanigans.
This is amazing 🤣🤣🤣 never before has there been a more accurate video that perfectly captures the essence and frustration of a game
"Your puissance is yours alone, your weapon is just an accessory to that."
What you think vs what happens is always different. I felt this on so many levels 😆
I love how he fought the dragon fly and before the animation of the flame could start the dragonfly nailed him, repeat this is so true, then the dragon just moved an inch away to hilarious in My opinion. The barking tortoise 🐢 had me hollering over here. I look forward to this series each month. Keep them coming please. 😂😂😂😂
Turtle/Dog,... check! Staggering by Goat attack... Check!
Unhittable Dragonfly... Check! Out of reach Sword of Night and Flame... Check!
These videos are triggering my PTSD!
This is one thing I tried to drill into my friends head, some weapons can be better than others, but the best weapon is yourself. Pick up a weapon you feel comfortable with, learn the enemies and you'll go the distence.
What a good dog.
Resume = Good weapons doesn't give you hands to play better 🤣
No, but it made for great farming opportunities at Milenia's Halitosis Tree.
I love Carbot, this has got to be one of the best ones made yet. Thank you BF.
You know how you deal with those dang dragonflies, you self-immolate with fires deadly sin and they all die when they come too close to you, revenge is sweet
I wait for a new Elden Ring episode to come. I played it to journey 3 when it was first released and each video is just a perfect depiction of each experience (especially given it was my first soulslike experience 😂) Keep going!
I absolutely agree. But think of this, have you ever played the Devil May Cry Series? it was like souls games before souls games.
@@Kagura259 Nope never played them either lol. I was always a nintendo/xbox gamer over PS 🤷
@@Luke04386 ive been all over lol, original nintendo, into ps 1, into game cube, into xbox, then ps2, then 360, now im PC, switch and my roomies ps4 lol
Very acurate, Sword of Night and Flame is powerful but the attackrange is mediocre
And slow, against a fast enemy you get insta killed.
@@sergiomoreno6861 not exactly, I was able to make use of it against Maliketh in BOTH phases, the beam attack in particular had a safe opening when in phase he'd go for the forward Beast Claw. With good timing you can land a hit that does 800-1,000+ damage AND still roll through the attack without taking a hit. Also Maliketh's inconsistent aggression makes it pretty good in phase 2, given that in my successful fight on my second playthrough I was able to take him down with several uncharged Frenzied Bursts as he slowly walked towards me, so you could EASILY use the SoNaF's special attacks instead.
It heavily depends on the enemy/boss as with good positioning and timing you can make surprising use of it, it's not an instant-win button anymore, but if you can land it on Maliketh, you can use it on faster enemies as well, and it hits like a truck doing so.
What do I mean by inconsistent aggression? That's when a boss can wildly switch between being super aggressive and super passive, IMO this is an issue with Gwyn, Manus, Fume Knight (to a very minor extent), Soul of Cinder, Maliketh and Isshin, Sword Saint. It makes the fights feel like you're at the mercy of RNG.
"Is now mediocre*" Prior to nerfs that gutted Flame damage and beam range, it was an amazing weapon that let you build Intelligence and Faith and also have an awesome Sword to play with.
Yeah, they busted the comet of azure range after the third update. If you can find release game play (I believe Cr1t1kal/Penquinz0 has some) the range was of that of a staff. The shit was totally busted.
I cheesed my first 4 playthroughs of Elden Ring on INT/VIT/DEX build, spamming Comet of Azure with cerulean cracked tear flask of physick, and magia terrus(forgot the name of the spell).
I haven't played in weeks due to classes(I had to put it aside before v.5 update) but I'm scared to see how my build is probably no longer viable.
Mediocre? It's still pretty damn good even after the nerf
I use this sword all the time, and you guys really put as it feels to play with it
why is everything drawn here so fricking CUTE? i want that dragon as a plushie XD
Okay these are starting to feel personal🤣
I've grown to love these animations. These masterful works of art. ❤️
The accuracy of all of this is astounding!
TOGETHAAA WE’LL DO OUR BESS WATCHING THIS ANIMATION OF ELDEN RING!
I love Elden Ring so much but the best thing about it was finding your content on it. Ridiculous, relatable and hilarious. As usual you nailed it.
And here is me who said “I’m not playing elden ring tonight and have a late night again”. Also me: procrastinates at work watching Carbot’s elden ring videos lol
Dude, for sure one of the best videos I've seen, omg so funny this series
0:53 Random Zelda moment had me rolling!!! Hahaha OMG
i absolutely love theese. please keep making more
Saturday is my favorite day because of you carbot.
1:29 gotta love mini-rannis’ design, is gonna be funny when you animate their encounter along with blaid, and the other members.
Lol all these videos hit so perfectly!
Please don't stop making these elden ring vids.. these are so frickin good!
Man I would so buy a release of the zealot, zergling and the 2 Marines in a whole set.
The longer this series come up, the lesser hair this guy have. This game make people bald
I just realized this video gave us an early cameo of Crucible Chads.
Also, nice call back to the MC having hair. At least stress took it away.
Let's be real.
The hardest part is overcoming the urge to save your Larval Tears when you dont meet the sword's wonky stat requirements.
Actually, I think the requirements are too low, you can basically wield the sword in the first 2 hours, which is insane.
SAY THAT!!!!!
@Greyson Maybe if you're actively building towards it, but not every build dumps 24/24 in Int/Faith, especially early game. Hence the Larval Tear comment.
@@dennischiu272 well obviously if your actively building towards it, that's how leveling up for a weapon works.
@Greyson i think it's pretty clear I'm not talking about leveling from scratch for a specific weapon. Why would you need a Larval Tear if you already know what build you want?
Ah yes, The Sword of Night and Flame...the sword I cannot even wield effectively because I specced into STR wanting to do a gigachad run.
Lmao
Haha truly anyone whos played elden ring will get the turtle barking.. so good. And the "you suck" when dying just topped it all off 😂🤣😂
Best part was the bark, ❤️ the little details added. 👍
When I saw the beam of light I knew it immediately that it was the sword of night and flame but they just had to nerf that sword as soon as I got it to level 10
Perfectly captured the feeling of using the Sword of Night and Flame. They're always just barely out of reach.
👆👆👆Thanks for the comment, Expect more videos soon. Send me a direct message.. I have a gift for you.......🎁
😂😂 I love these videos man, keep up the amazing work
Love the audio starting 0:25 . Well done!
I still have never used this weapon. Though seeing the speedruns (even on older patches) seems cool
Ditto. The sword doesn't quite do it for me in my playstyle. If I'm going to be a melee build, I'm doing something for straight damage plus cool factor. If I'm doing any magic wielding build, I'm going staves and range. This sword is too "Game of Thrones" for me. Yes, I know, GRRM helped make the game, but probably didn't have any input as to weapons and their names.
it really is the best sword in the game tho i'm doing a night and flame run and its a blast
With this thing I cheesed Elden Beast in my first run :D
Isn't that debuffed to hell? I finished the game before those patches rolled out and it was hyper powerful, kiling Godfrey/Hoarax Loux in ten seconds. That wasn't even funny. I didn't even see his moveset.
@@TheJackal917 Godfrey perfectly cut screams
@@TheJackal917 I think it got buffed some time ago
I remember when the game was just released. Got summoned for a boss. The guy was doing something when we got invaded. Just did the magic blast against that invader and he died. Now, it takes a few blasts and everyone knows the move set of the sword so good luck landing any hits with it.
These are so good. I look forward to each and every one!
The range of the beam. Too close to home man
The best sword in the game is the friends we've made along the way.
Kinda literally, thanks to co-op lol
Black Knife Tiche is _my_ best -sword- friend in the game.
@@GrahamChapman Mine is Mimic Tear, because I am an absolute narcissist.
The dragonflies feel like an insult. They are of no consequence but a huge pain to even damage unless you snipe them or have some kinda big aoe.
Its how you know the game hates you.
Still a great game
They are babies compared to the ones in Blighttown
@@pramitpratimdas8198 I dont agree at all. Blight town has slow moving bugs. Slow. Very slow.
Elden Ring has tiny jet fighters
best episode yet 🤣 the turtle bark and making fun of youtubers. The comedy is on point 😎
The fight with the dragonfly has me rolling right now hahah. Great vid, keep up the great work
Before ROB was a thing, Sword of Night and Flame was really a good sword though
augh, it's always a serious downer when you try and fire a spell and it's just shy of hitting the target. I wish there was some kind of indicator of how close you have to be to hit a target when firing a ranged spell like that, like maybe the targeting dot turns red if you're too far away or something.
Casul
part of the gaming experience. Never try using a scythe.
This isn't an EA game.
Part of the issue there is the angle you typically use to aim has poor depth viewability. Try gauging distance by tilting down or to the side. Maybe not super helpful when autotracking in a rollfest battle...
Proof that skill/experience makes the weapon effective and not only the weapon by itself. That dragonfly though. lol
Honestly have no idea how something this abstract is so dead accurate.
Cross-Naginata with ice spear is the most beginner friendly build that is viable in PVE.
The way the dragon smacks the attack away, like it was insulted by that bullshit lmao
The end to this episode got a good chuckle from me XP
Though technically not a sword the Horrorfrost axe was pretty dope before all the nerfs
