    Just a sidenote because I've already done this run myself, you should always begin the run as the Pyromancer as it gives you the same armour/weapons/spell that Laurentius has by default and therefore allows you to include asylum as part of the run. Not to mention the skip if you think not having Fire Orb/Combustion invalidates the cosplay.

    @systmerr9445 6 місяців тому

    The perfect thing to watch while playing Shadow of the Erdtree. I love how creative and unexpected most of your video challenge premises are.
    Also, if you care, and it’s entirely possible you’ve considered this before, there is an idea I just thought of for a possible challenge run. I don’t know if you ever played Call of Duty: Black Ops, but there was this mode called Sharpshooter where everyone’s gun would switch to a random new one every minute or so, making things really chaotic and unpredictable. I don’t know if a mod for that exists, but if it does it might be cool to do that with a Soulsborne Ring Twice game, where your weapon randomly changes every minute. Sometimes you have a dagger, then a whip, then a greatsword, with of course the potential you can’t use what it switches to, or that the weight suddenly makes you slowed down. Just an idea I had.

    Also about the 4 kings: The boss AI is very passive when there are 2 kings. The one in the back will only attack you when you get very close to him, if not then most of the time he'll only watch. That fight is easier than most people think it is, the extra kings are just a false sense of danger.
