  • Опубліковано 14 тра 2024
  • This is probably the craziest thing ever to be found in Elden Ring, just when we thought the latest update brought a new meta we noticed these hiding in plain sight... This run is part of a challenge I'm doing to complete multiple different no-hit runs with weapons that my viewers request. I am trying to complete all 40 that have been requested before 2023. So far, 35 of 40 runs have been done in the last 6 weeks.
    Link to full run: / 1679435855
    Twitch: / ginomachino
    Twitter: / ginomachino
    Discord: / discord
    Challenge run list: pastebin.com/bqriz3Nx
    Rules: Complete the game while not taking any staggers or damage from enemies or traps. Environmental or self hits/damage are allowed, including fall damage. There is a required death at the beginning of the game which is not counted as a hit because it is needed for progression.

    I did a fist weapon centric run to experiment with all of the fist weapons a while back, man the iron ball and starfist are so absolutely cracked! Like jeezus, the charged R2 annihilates both health and posture, probably the fastest RadaBeast kill I've done so far.
    Grafted Dragon also has some silly applications, used them to 4-shot Radahn with the AoW.
    Also Malenia no-hit with Iron Ball is pretty free, I had no hitbox issues with her and unintentionally no-hit on my first attempt.

Stonebarb Cracked Tear is also worth considering if you know the openings to abuse, as the effect is short, but can reduce how many hits you need for a stagger
