  • "Let me solo her him"
    This was a lot of fun and a continuation of my spur of the moment Queen challenge. The Queen challenge was basically to do the Queen in no armor, with just a greatsword, to mimic Conan the Barbarian. This is probably my favorite Valheim challenge. Around 11 hours or so of progression went into this.
    One of the biggest pain points in progression was Fader just going nuts the last 20%, in my first kill with no armor (this vid is my 2nd kill of no armor fader here) I was literally at 10% for 8 minutes (My first no armor Fader kill: • Valheim | No Armor Fad... ), because I would never ever have the opportunity to dps him down and end the fight. He just goes berserk and a lot of it is rng too with what attacks he decides to do. I was at work one night and I was just thinkin about it and I realized if I could bait his fire line breath attack, by being midrange (10-12meters) I could easily jump in and use sword special and then I would be able to trigger his melee attack cycle. Doing this allowed me to not only kill faster, but it's also a safer strategy. It's better to be midrange/melee with fader than absolutely range, because he'll just dominate you at max range.
    For 9 hours of the progression, I was running 3x stamina food, and the archers would hit me and stagger me and essentially end the run. @ThreadMenace recommended me to run 1 hp food from the very start, and in the last hour of progression I actually tried it out and it makes the encounter a LOT easier. The extra hp just barely prevents me from getting staggered by the archers 50dmg hits. I was using skoll and hati to kill the adds for 10 hours of the progression, and then for the last hour I gave silver knife a shot and I think it's better, it doesn't instantly kill like skoll and hati does but the charred stay staggered until they die from spirit. Also just big props to him for kinda coaching/problem solving, great mind and we both helped each other out with some different shenanigans. I know there's probably a huge overlap in my community and his but if you haven't heard who he is (which I doubt) go check him out. Also big thanks to him for making the guy in the thumbnail too, I think it's really funny.
    One day I plan to do this on Very Hard, but today is not that day. A very hard kill would have to be hitless. No ifs no ands no buts. I have moments of brilliance where I'm able to handle the add phase super well and not get hit at all. Honestly doing this on very hard sounds like a complete nightmare, but 1 year from now I'll look back on this and think it wasn't so hard.
    I have a plains village lined up after this, I'm about 1/3 done and I'm COOKING.

    Hey gamers, go check out Threads INSANE Fader speedkill (2 min 10 seconds kill) here: ua-cam.com/video/MO4oibhe_Ho/v-deo.html . He does some good shot calling while the fight is going on and gets a crazy time!

    3:23 Beautiful jumping strike to the neck!
    This is the best combat control and beautiful. ... Looking into the sky to see where problems are falling - it looks cool. You were NAKED!!!!
    Thanks for the inspiration, but I will never be able to do this)
    ... I'll give the dragon to be eaten by askspigs 2 stars.... It's dirty, but because of the FPS I won't see it. But I'll be naked too))).

      @Scales1364  Місяць тому

      I play on max settings, but I have a super strong computer. I also get some stuttering too (especially when I'm loading things up for the first time in the ashlands), idk, feel like it could use some optimization for sure.

    Ah yes, a fellow Tasty Mead enjoyer.
    A man of culture I see.
    How many tries did this take until you learned his attack patterns? Asking, cuz me and a few fellow madlads are gonna attempt this in the near future.

    • @Scales1364
      @Scales1364  Місяць тому

      Hell yea, if you can please record I'd love to see these attempts! Uh, to reach this complete boss mastery, it took me roughly 5 hours to feel like I knew everything to know about the boss, but learning curves vary from person to person and this is by no means an easy challenge, but I'd say 5 hours would be a good estimate.

    What difficulty is this? because even with Armor those skeleton arrows would dealt almost the same ,and that Stab from the Warrior would've dropped my health in half with 2 HP foods and an energy food let alone you had no armor and tanked that in half damage only, with Ashen cape as well i could not tank that hit again, not just that you even parried it without getting stunned in place.

    So plz excuse my ignorance but how are you insta killing the chard with the silver dagger?

    • @Scales1364
      @Scales1364  Місяць тому +5

      The summoned charred have super low hp (think it's like 50hp?), and silver knife does just enough damage to kill them. The charred also take spirit damage too which helps boost the silver knife damage. For the majority of this challenge run I was running skoll and hati to kill the charred but silver knife takes less stamina to kill the charred.
