Just someone archiving and writing down my thoughts about the games I play.
Foul Dragon, Meet the Fowl Beast
I can finally say that I'm at least competent against Bayle. Personal shortcomings aside, it's the last boss I needed to learn before I can claim that I've overcome the DLC. Cherilyn isn't the next character I wanted to showcase but I just felt like practicing using her. I have a number of characters in limbo - Cherilyn included - because I'm still searching for music that would pair well with any of them.

I Shall Not Be Snuggled, Bayle!

Definitely one of the most interesting soundtracks of the entire game. I can feel myself getting better but personal shortcomings like depth perception and slow reaction speeds does make things tougher than they already are.
Gren of the Festival | RL120 | Elden Ring

A child foresaw flames and for his sin of blasphemy, was burned alive and thrown into a chasm along with others of his ilk. The child survived but at the cost of his sight and voice. Unable to find a way out of the chasm, the child lived in the filth and dark until a serpent stumbled upon him. Born an albino, the serpent known as "Quicksilver" was weak, frail and lacking in venom, it had to use...
Testing "Miquellan Knight's Sword" on Endgame Bosses (NG)
Просмотров 1 тыс.21 день назад
If there's anything I learned for myself whenever I try stuff, it's better to test things out for yourself than rely entirely on hearsay. If you listen to the Internet and the Souls community-at-large, you'd think Holy damage is the absolute worst; moreso if it's split with Physical. 80% Holy negation (E.g. Maliketh, Radagon, Elden Beast) really doesn't mean anything as long as you know how to ...
Azure Knight Évelyne | RL99 | Elden Ring
Просмотров 458Месяц назад
The Slayer of Demons arrives in the Lands Between and proceeds to tear down gods, demons and everything in between. I love this character, Évelyne is my muse and a character I've used and carried over to every other Souls game since Demon's Souls (2009). The original idea for Éve back in the day, was a simple knight with a sword-and-shield, who learned and incorporated magic to dispatch pesky f...
Testing "Treespear" on Malenia (NG+7) | Elden Ring
Просмотров 7142 месяца назад
From the shortlist of Holy weapons, Treespear is - by far - the best "main" weapon to compliment my Zakat's fashion and background. Messmer's Soldier Spear is best in terms of build flexibility but if I'm going to create a character, I want gear that's obtainable at the start of a run; without having to resort to Cheat Engine. Also, I love Romina's music so much, I just had to use it for Maleni...
Testing "Winged Scythe" on Malenia (NG+7) | Elden Ring
Просмотров 4752 месяца назад
Disclaimer: These Malenia fights aren't a regular thing, I only do these on occasion when there's something I want to test out; just as the title mentions. The Winged Scythe is my favourite Scythe design since the Lifehunt Scythe in DS1. I've fought Malenia enough times for the fights to feel slow to me, but after going up against Messmer, it's like she's moving in super slow-motion and it felt...

I do like the fact that FromSoft finally turned the Morion Blade into a proper weapon. The Steeple is like the lovechild of the Morion Blade and the Northern Regalia. I've yet to find a fashion to pair with it that I feel comfortable using. One day I'll find it. :X Track: Mezame (目覚め) from the 2004 anime, _Mai-HiME_ (舞-HiME). Composer: Kajiura Yuki (梶浦 由記)

The TKS would easily be my favourite Twinblade aesthetically. I love the round hand-guard(?). This video is also an excuse to try out other kinds of music. I don't listen music in general but I did watch a lot of shows growing up so let's try that here. Let's see if I can find some kindred spirits. :X

Ngl bayle made me struggle so much I had to break my no summoning rule and summoned igon😢.
Wow, that was well done. Stitcher being able to switch between impaling thrust, piercing fang, giant hunt and repeating thrust AoW is so tempting from the amount of options
Hey Magnolia! What level where your regular and somber weapons for your character?
I didn't use any Somber weapons, so at the end of the run, all four were at +25. If you're specifically asking during the intro setup, I only remember my Longsword being at +19 when fighting Morgott in Leyndell. I can't recall the others since I've already deleted all the footage except the final video.
Just the type of boss fight Santa Monica Studio should take notes from. Heck, they should copy the whole homework.
The improvement from the other two attempts is clear, I envy how you can master a boss and make it look so easy.
Thanks for the compliment, but I wouldn't give myself too much credit. The main reason I'm able to adapt and learn quickly is because I've been playing Souls games since the first Demon's Souls in 2009. So I have over fifteen years of legacy skill and knowledge to fall back on.
Nice. Applies scarlet rot "Curse you Bayle"!
I like the tutorial. Bayle just always seems impossible
I have most issues with Bayle's delayed attacks, but that's true to any delayed attacks in fact, my reflexes do not exist. With Bayle also lingering hitboxes of his flame attacks cause me trouble, some of those flames you can walk in safely as they don't have hitbox in fact and I'm still trying to remember which ones. Haven't played ER for a while, last windows update made it unpredictable a bit -.-
Yeah the delayed attacks tend to get to me too, there are very subtle tells for dodging its flailings but with how much is going on in the fight, it can get overwhelming. Are you using Windows 11, by any chance? I heard that the recent update introduced something called Windows Recall which acts like spyware and monitors your screen. Not sure if that's what you're referring to, but it's why I refuse to let in any Windows 10 updates or downgrade to Win11. It sucks that we can't stop updates indefinitely.
@@magnolia549 Recall is for specific class of processors, which I do not have (luckily), it's just 24H2 update that messed up most of things that worked fine. Since I am not tech-savvy much, I struggle with all this mess they create for unknown reason. Stopping updates entirely is my big wish, in the end, I am the user, not some microcrap suit unable to understand that I am not their slave.
Small thing, but sprinting seems the more reliable method of dodging attacks like Bayle's tracking arial fireballs, Elden Stars and the like. I know I said before that the dragon hunter GK was practically made for fighting Bayle, but that's almost entirely due to its ash. I honestly think the GK moveset kinda sucks for dragons, and the ash itself is very one-note, so I get not using it. Also, I have a new favorite video title.
I've forgotten which attack it was, but every Great Katana has a poke and it is a fast follow-up after doing a running poke (again, I forgot which input it was since I haven't used them much). Those two were the attacks I used to most when I tried the DHGK on Bayle and I would use the weapon skill after it does the hop > tail swing. Because you're positioned near the head, you can connect both the physical weapon and the beam slash for the extra damage.
You are an absolute beast keep at it man 💪

This video made me buy ff16 thank you
Awesome lore, and build. When you get the chance please make your other build videos available again. Take care, and Happy New Year!
Aw yeah, there it is. That's the good stuff.
Whenever anyone asks me about Elden Ring I send them this video.
@@rullupylsa I'm honoured, haha, enjoy! :D
Bro, did you delete all your videos? The Lucerne video was my safe space!
I found the link and can see that you set it to private. Would you please unprivate it, just for a little while so I can download it? I watch it regularly, cause I just like it so damn much.
Apparently I set all other videos to private on accident while trying to clean up some videos. The menus for arranging content is a little confusing. Sorry about that, give me a moment while I fix this.
@@magnolia549 Thank you so much! I watch that video almost weekly. It's so stylish. I shamelessly stole your fashion, too.
@@rullupylsa No problem and again, so sorry about the video. New year, so I wanted to do some "spring cleaning" but I messed up. I'm honoured about the fashion, because that means I have _some_ fashion sense. xD
Great video as always! Keep uploading peak souls! Btw i have a request for next build, Northern Warrior, (Hero class) it's a Pure strength but frost build so you may spend some points on int. Battle axe would be the perfect choice for this build. The rest is up to you ;D
I don't really do requests, but if you have a build you'd like to share, post it on my latest community post so that I can refer to it easily, thanks!
Was a realy good vid😁. Can’t wait for the next
Nier’s osts😢 brought back so much memories been a while since last Nier game lol. Btw, cool build and good gameplays
Great vid
Hey, look at you! Killing God with rat poison :) Nah, but seriously, that was really good. Editing was genuinely energetic, you made me care for the giant rats, and Nier music was an excellent choice (really need to finish that game myself). I also respect the dedication to character story and roleplay, which I've always found to be a weakness of ER. It's an excellent RPG for playstyle choice, but it suffers with character RP in my opinion. It's still something I've been taking more seriously with my own characters as of late. Yeh, pretty kool, praise be the Festival!
Poison > Rot > Bleed! Who am I kidding, Poison has always been lackluster in the Souls games; aside from Plague and Toxic in Demon's Souls and Dark Souls 1. I still love the heck out of it though, DoTs are fun even if the damage isn't great, it provides the comfort of knowing that the enemy's health is ticking down while I'm busy dodging. Thanks for the compliments honestly! Gren was the first original character I thought up for Elden Ring. Because I'm not particularly skilled at coming up with stories that line up with established lore, it took almost a year to get some basic character information down. Once I was able to do that, the build made itself, haha. I'm glad to hear that the editing was entertaining, that's what I was striving towards. Yeah, I do enjoy role-playing and getting into the mind of the characters I created but the Souls games have never catered to that aspect of character-creation, so a player's motivation for doing so has to be extrinsic. A Machinima-style video is what I originally wanted to do, but this is what I can accomplish with the tools and time I have available. So I'm just happy to have made something entertaining. The musical vibe I was going for with the character and video isn't something easy to come by. Since i have no prior knowledge or experience with music, it took a long time of browsing through RUclips to finally chance upon Nier music again and it just clicked. I've been aware of Drakengard and Nier games since DKG2, but the fast(er)-paced combat and lack of a character creator was always a deal-breaker for me. But I bought NieR: Automata a few years back during a Steam sale because the demo was fantastic, but the full game wasn't my cup of tea and I ended up losing interest right after the tutorial area.
Took me embarrassingly long to realize the "festival" was the rats.
Sorry about that, I was still in the role-playing mindset while editing but I should have just called them the Rat spirits for clarity. :X
This tematic build looks so fun, I'm thinking o a build with the skeloetons summom, some type of skeleton lord. PD: The editting is getting better everytime.
The Skeleton Militiaman and Bandit Spirits you can get early from the Tibia Mariners at Summonwater Village and Liurnia are really good for pulling aggro and reviving indefinitely; as long as there's no lingering DoT. I could see a Skeleton Lord character wielding something like the Death's Poker. Thanks for the compliments, I'm definitely trying to improve with each new video so I'm glad it's coming across! :D
I just noticed the visual glitching on the name cards at the start. It wasn't there when I reviewed in my editing software, nor my media player. It seems like the problem is because of RUclips, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know exactly what's causing it or how to fix it for future videos. Apologies if it bothers you because it sure as heck bothers me!
With Anger the tarnished pulled out the glock
Was it just me or are the boss theme changed for the Elden Beast? Awesome vid btw
Yup, I changed it to Rellana's theme because I've never been a fan of Elden Beast's. Thanks for the compliment! :)
Where do you get this sword? Also amazing gameplay
It's in one of the towers near the start of Elphael, the second-half of Miquella's Haligtree. As for directions: - Start from the Prayer Room site of grace and head right (north-east) towards the city. - Head down the path, you will find two entrances to your left. - Head into the second entrance, up the long flight of stairs inside, then head out right at the top of said stairs. - Jump onto the branch directly in front of you and follow it up (south). - Jump down onto the path directly (east) that leads to a bell tower directly to you. - If you haven't been here before, there will be an item laying on the ground. - Congrats, you found the Miquellan Knight's Sword! Apologies for the late response, I hope that helps, and thank you for the compliment! :)
Beautifully played. The R2 is so cool, I wish more than a single weapon had it. Also the little time-saving edits can be hilarious, 6:30 feels so much more violent than a regular crit
Thank you! :) I did this weapon test because I genuinely forgot it existed until a frequent viewer notified me of it. Yeah, the R2 is great and it's a shame we didn't get a regular weapon in the DLC with that attack; like how Messmer Soldier's Spear uses the Treespear's two-hit R2s. Also yeah, a lot of these "dead air" moments add up and blow up the video length so ripostes were one such moments that felt fine to cut short. It was only after I started doing it that I noticed how visceral they can look when it's done quicker, haha.
What’s the shield you’re using and the attributes needed?
It's the Haligtree Crest Greatshield; 36 STR
It’s only dropped by one enemy in the haligtree, better off looking it up
As mentioned above, you can only get the Haligtree Crest Greatshield from a singular specific enemy in the Haligtree and the drop-rate isn't the best. If you don't care much for fashion and are just looking for a decent alternative - before the Haligtree - that doesn't require a lot of farming, the Golden Greatshield from the Leyndell Knight (that wield them) would do just as well. Require 34 Strength, has 68% Holy negation and 78 Guard Boost; one point below HCGS's 79 GB. If you're not keen on farming, the Black Steel Greatshield is a guaranteed drop from the DLC and is an excellent choice too. Requires 35 STR, has 84% Holy neg and 74 Guard Boost. Hope that helps. :)
fire thumbnail!
Damm, this weapon is better than what I was expecting, I'll have to give it a try.
