I love how in each Skum vid, without fail, Gideon is either an utter pushover or one of the biggest roadblocks of the entire run. Theres no in between for him.
Yeah I mean the entire boss is basically rng to begin with. You’re supposed to be aggressive but that’s hard to do when he spams the shit out of every attack especially the stupid rings. And once you can hit him he just one shots you with that Sui.. spell Elden Ring truly has boss fights
@@goopguy548it’s possible, but since enemy resistances also get increased with ng+ cycles, it would take way too long to proc anything on them (same reason why he didn’t do a bleed build). since blackflame is a unique debuff it’s by far the best strategy for this run
I feel this run would be easier than something like NG+500 because of the grey health thing. Bosses like fire giant and Godfrey just lost their second phase to that which wouldn't have happened if over half their HP wasn't grey. At 500 everything would probably still be instakill and the % damage doesn't care about max health increases
@@exantiuse497no it does percentage to their health not the bar length so it will still be the same for example enemy on ng500 have 524323 health black flame would do the same amount as if it were ng1000
@@Young-Tarnished though bosses like fire giant or godfrey would probably live after their 2nd phase transition because their health wasn't already fully depleted
@@Young-Tarnished They were not talking about damage when they said NG+ 500 might be easier, they were implying that phase transitions require the boss to have their entire bar fully red at the start, and that the grayed out bit might have been the reason phase transition for Fire Giant weren't working.
It's crazy how few years ago, doing a "no hit run" was considered almost impossible to do in a Souls-game. But now, no-hit is just how you play the game as the challenges are even more sadistic.
If I recall correctly, Miyazaki himself didn't believe someone had beat Dark Souls 1 no hit. Now that's Baby's First Challenge run beside no death. Hell, I even have a no death and no bonfire run in DS2 for the illusory rings.
i decide to read 1 twitch chat comment and i see: "it wasnt her aeonia that defeated radahn, it was her making it clap so hard half his brain liquified" (1:01:50)
For 500,000 HP and 61 HP per crit and about 10 seconds per crit, you're looking at 0.9 days straight JUST to kill SoG. That is basically 22 hours of hits, crits, backstabbing, no breaks, no sleep, no eating, no nothing. Just attacking... Yeah wtf Skum
Breaking news:a UA-camr in the name of skummnut has officially gone mad after beating elden ring on Ng+1000 and when we asked him why does he do this to himself he responded:"the climb never ends".stay tuned for tomorrow.
I said Scouring Black Flame was good. It carried the run. I said to use Malikeths Black Blade on Gideon. It was his demise. Chat going muh Status effect this, dumb suggestion that. . . A crown is warranted with strength, AND IM THE GOD DAMN KING. I RUN THIS SHIT. Haven’t played in 8 months? My crown still sits COMFORTABLY on my head. Let chat never forget it.💪 👑 King of suggestions of course. Only one can be the king of the climb and we all know who that is. 🧗
Tbh chat is kinda stupid for even suggesting madness, considering sleep takes more than 8 pots to take affect aganist Forskin Duo.Maliketh's Black Blade is so good too, my fav colossal weapon carrying aganist Gideon.Goated suggestions all around, ''stand proud you are strong''.
He had 365 deaths during this absurd ng+ run , while i had plus 300 deaths on a normal souls run, yes i have died 200 - 300 times at least on every souls games i have played on first playthrough
Now imagine if this could've been played without the hardcode of 500k HP of bosses and an unlimited level scaling mod to basically have endless level. Would've this been complete chaos, better or worse? Guess we'll find out someday.
Plot twist the clip from the beginning of Soldier of God, Rick wasn't him on NG+ 1000 but him on NG. Really shows how powerful Rick, Soldier of God really is
Saw this through an UA-cam short and was like wtf I thought I knew all the big quality Elden ring content creator (towering pants, backlogs(kinda), the guy with the cat icon and the rest of his kinda bubble) but bro is cooking 0 raging calm and with ridicules challenges.

Skumnut if you do another PB attempt on NG+1000 you definitely need to at least give the Blackblade a try. You can use Nightmaiden's Mist from Gowry to kill the Gargoyle from behind the Sanctum doors. And you can cheese Commander Niall with the rot geysers. So you could technically get the sword without leveling if you wanted to be silly about it.

Gargoyle's Blackblade would've probably been great for NG+1000. The Ash of War is literally a red Vacuum Slice, but with a bonus Black Flame -2% HP effect and weapon-hitbox. It's basically a more spammable and safer Godskin black fireball that only needs 22 STR & FTH.
The community seems to have completely missed what is IMO the most underrated weapon in the game for even regular playthroughs. It wrecks dragons and Dodge-happy enemies. It's even easily gotten right at the start because it's dropped by the Gargoyle guarding Gurranq in Caelid.
It isn't the BEST weapon in the game or anything. Its damage is very consistent but also very soft-capped. It's a greatsword so has a decent move-set, but AFAIK it's the exact same move-set as Blasphemous Blade ie quite "Mid". But none of that changes the fact it can melt bosses from a very safe range and has easy to achieve requirements.
I consider it the most underrated because as ~A-tier of a weapon as it is, I've never once seen anyone in co-op or any streamer use it. I personally put it ABOVE Blasphemous Blade (Blackblade AoW uses like half the frames as Taker's Flames, and Blackblade can hit flying targets) and very near Great Stars in overall useability, and I freakin adore Great Stars.
Skumnut if you do another PB attempt on NG+1000 you definitely need to at least give the Blackblade a try. You can use Nightmaiden's Mist from Gowry to kill the Gargoyle from behind the Sanctum doors. And you can cheese Commander Niall with the rot geysers. So you could technically get the sword without leveling if you wanted to be silly about it.
