That could be pretty nice, there's actually armor that allows you to cosplay as the Witch-King pretty nicely (Night's Cavalry Set with the All-Knowing Helm).
If you wanted to do fashion souls for Pepsiman, might I suggest Cuckoo Knight armor + Silver Tear Mask? it gives you some extra arcane to help with the farming, of which there is a lot.
Fun fact: You could have made this challenge far easier by using the Sacred Butcher Blade with chilling mist or Poison Mist, as SBB doesn't care how a "hit" is applied, as long as it's hurting something.
When you said this just disintegrated bosses, this wasn't what I thought the build would be but it is tasty. Code Red gives ya that energy and Cherry lets you enjoy the sweet taste of victory. I always miss the streams but I'd be into some Demons Souls or Bloodborne builds. This channel's play through is the only one of Demons Souls I watched and you giving plot exhibition for Bloodborne while you went through it was really appreciated.
Since you asked yeah I think other fromsoft games, and other games in general would be pretty cool to see. I think your commentary carries it regardless
Given the sheer number of ways to heal health without flasks, prayerful strike/prelates charge great stars, blasphemous blade, spells, etc. Seems fun. Excited to see the invert, just beating the game without blue juice, which seems easy unless you also add no using FP at all.
I’d be pretty interested in seeing other Souls games content. These Elden Ring videos have become some of my favorites, so more can only be good. Edit: Which of the NPCs would be Famous Pepsi Enjoyer, CM Punk?
Oooh, heck of an awesome video, not done with it yet but I have always enjoyed all your vids. To answer the question in the middle of the vid about playing other Souls games that prompted me to comment before the end of the video... yes, would absolutely love to watch more of your Souls Gameplays =D
7:57 my internet cuts out at the funniest times, I sometimes think that the editor paused for comedic effect “But I know some people prefer spells that’s fin-“ *gets crushed by greylls wing*
Ok, well now you just *_have_* to do a run as the Coca-Cola polar bear. Only healing flasks (no leveling mind since you dont even need it) and use the Bloodhound Claws and the Spike Caestus as weapons and fur related clothes as armor. That should be pretty fun. (Oh and idk some sort of bear related summon, maybe just mimic)
Lords Divine Fortification is like when I get sick of fighting Radagon and slap on the Haligtree Drake talisman. Suddenly, father in law ain't a problem and it's on to his weird space dog
You know you're tired when you hear the joke where he's talking in a Bane voice about Wild Cherry and taking a solid 5 seconds of listening to it to finally realize that isn't the original line.
I was thinking of suggesting a run as Unohana from Bleach and it would be kinda similar to this. Unohana is a healing Kido master so she would obviously be using healing Incantations instead of the Cola flask, for weapons you've got only 2 - the Uchi and the RoB. I'd advise putting Bloodhound Step on the Uchi for accuracy. You are going to have to be in low equip-load too since the most correct-looking armor piece for the Gotei Uniforms is Fia's Robe. For the full outfit, I tend to go with Sorcerer Manchettes and the Land of Reeds Greaves, empty helmet slot. Given what her Bankai broadly does, you can also get away with using Blood Boon.
I literally just finished this run, with the main difference being I also disallowed healing spells, only AOW and passive heals. Really fun tbh, double holy infused great stars be kinda funny
i'd never used the black knife before i saw this video, it is now one of the things i pick up for prep because it makes every boss in the game pretty much free at +0
now do rl1 +0 no status effects no spells no affinities no weapons no armor no talismans no consumables no great runes no rune arcs no summons no ranged attacks melee only glitchless all bosses no hit would be pretty fun I think
I’d love to see an Archer (Fate) build- could be nice to use a great bow alongside powerstanced daggers, with justification for any other weapon you want to use on the way.
Might I suggest Mountain Dew themed run? Frozen Lightning to represent Mtn Dew Voltage, Rotbreath or some... other... red spell for Code Red, and there's probably other stuff I can't think of.
While the Erdtree Seal may not outpace the finger seal early on, it has the highest scaling for healing, independent of Faith scaling (I use Dragon Communion deal with high Arcane and moderate Faith and Erdtree still heals more).
It definitely takes a lot of relearning combat if you choose to switch. Flat out, spells are more efficient per flask than crimson flasks are for healing, but sacrifice time. Assuming you have maxed your flasks to +12, Red flasks heal 810 hp per flask. On the other hand, max Blue flask gives 220 FP, which will completely fill your FP bar if you have 38 mind or below. Lord's Heal, obtained from the Two Finger's Prayerbook (the one in ghost Godfrey/Gideon's arena), needs 20 faith and 55 FP to cast, and after 32 faith, a +25 Finger Seal heals 820 HP. In one Blue flask you can heal 4 times, each more powerful than a single red flask. For higher end instances, Erdtree Heal cast at 80 faith with a +10 Erdtree Seal can be cast 3 times per max blue flask and heals 2086 HP, for a total of 6258 HP. and this is not even counting the Cerulean Seed Talisman, which only widens the gap.
I would love to watch a Demon's Holes run, or a Dark Souls run, Dark Souls 3, Bloodborne, even Dark Souls 2 if you really want to. Your content is great and you can those games are great.
The "no red flasks only healing spells" high faith build is a personal favorite
I'm running an int faith build with that idea in mind. Loving it
@@AliceTree7861 if you have the patience for it bestial vitality is one of the best early game healing sources, and if you like than warming Stones are also top tier hp restores
If it works it works. And it definitely works.
This guy didn't even use the radagon talisman to reduce cast time and pump dexterity enough to hit the break point.
@@flamerollerx01 with all due respect 70 dex is pretty steep, even 40 with radagon icon can be strenuous
Now this is what I call a Pepsi Halftime Show
Aren't you the same guy?
Is this a Bo Burnham reference?
I think it'd be cool to try a Sauron build, with a mace and frenzied flame stuff. The seal to cast incantations would even work well as the ring.
That could be pretty nice, there's actually armor that allows you to cosplay as the Witch-King pretty nicely (Night's Cavalry Set with the All-Knowing Helm).
@@themagnus2919 The dude said "frenzied flame stuff" not "frenzied flame staff".
:O 😮😮😮 what!!

Missed opportunity.
Such a strange run but also very fun. I'd be happy seeing runs from other games too, would be very fun.
God I'm gonna miss jumping
The best part of this series is going back to old videos and seeing how much your opinions have changed from boss to boss
As soon as the Blasphemous Blade was acquired, I knew that the run was basically over.
It really is that good.

It was a fun run to watch. Genuinely challenging and fun build.

Since you asked yeah I think other fromsoft games, and other games in general would be pretty cool to see. I think your commentary carries it regardless
Honestly, I'm feeling this could be a solid B tier. A if we get the Pepsi man theme cover by Phil.
Sorry, F tier then. 😔
Holy shit, I dropped my jaw when proof of the hero started playing. I may have to drink Pepsi now.
"When ordering *crimson* tears..."
I believe he may have forgotten that crimson tears are only the coca cola, cerulean tears are the Pepsi.
Given the sheer number of ways to heal health without flasks, prayerful strike/prelates charge great stars, blasphemous blade, spells, etc. Seems fun.

I'm pretty sure we've probably accidentally done that haha
i did the no flask run some times ago, it's a lot of fun and i think anyone should try, believe me it's a lot of fun.
It starts rough, but after you get a build together you can just steam roll, it was super fun
Other Souls challenge runs should be fun!
Personally I would really like to see you try out builds based on stuff in the other souls games
A demons souls or ds3 video would be great
I did a no red juice run myself and you can actually resummon Torrent infinitely if you don't have any Red's allocated...
So I think what must have happened: I upgraded the flask, but forgot to swap it out. Still unequipt, but in my equipment load.
I’d be pretty interested in seeing other Souls games content.
These Elden Ring videos have become some of my favorites, so more can only be good.
Edit: Which of the NPCs would be Famous Pepsi Enjoyer, CM Punk?
13:04 I wasn't even listening to the bgm, but once that note sounded, all my Fatalis trauma cameback in one single moment
My diet Pepsi joke for the mimic made it to the video
Thank you for your service
Would love to see a darksouls 1 run! And keep up the good work
...what about any of the other ones...
I’d love to see some dark souls runs or maybe even bloodborn
Ah, Gun Souls, we love it
Personally I’d love to see you do these themed runs in demon’s souls and the souls games, or hell even just normal playthroughs
"Is Pepsi ok?"
-'Get's violently smashed into paste by Radagon's grab'
The Weird Al title card just fits so well with this channel
Yes, this is indeed Pepsiman, thank you RUclips.

This was a great video. I'm also hella down to watch you play demons holes if you ever want to do runs in there
It's Pepsi man I have to watch. Now if only I could play him in D&D
Love this build ^^ ! Maybe for the next ones you could do an elden ring version of the base dnd classes?
The beverage puns that permeate this video is amazing

Normal people: Cerulean tears.
Tulok & Mango: Blue Crimson.
as long as you keep up you commentary style i'd watch any game i think
Look, if you're going to speedrun we all know what must be done. You've opened this door now.
Sonic has entered the lands between.
You know you're tired when you hear the joke where he's talking in a Bane voice about Wild Cherry and taking a solid 5 seconds of listening to it to finally realize that isn't the original line.
9:29 me talking to myself during history class
This might be the most unhinged of these builds and I love it
That Lana Del Rey joke was the first time I’ve googled something you told me to. Not where I thought it would take me
I would love to see you do more Soulsborne game runs!! MORE BLOODBORNE
Well, at least dying a bunch to entirely avoidable early game sunk cost fallacy is true to Pepsi Man's own game.

Pepsiman was literally a childhood hero of mine. This… is a good day. Thank you!
Would love to see some other runs from souls games!
Hell yeah, maybe I'll start doing one Variety Souls challenge a month?
I literally just finished this run, with the main difference being I also disallowed healing spells, only AOW and passive heals. Really fun tbh, double holy infused great stars be kinda funny
Burger King over here only has Pepsi

Would LOVE to see you attempt a speedrun with all your accumulated knowledge. Glitchless Any% would work.
Arcane only build without bleed?
If the pepsi man theme song wasn't on loop for the entire duration of recording I'll be very disappointed.
I would love a Demon's Souls run
now do rl1 +0 no status effects no spells no affinities no weapons no armor no talismans no consumables no great runes no rune arcs no summons no ranged attacks melee only glitchless all bosses no hit
would be pretty fun I think
i felt very conflicted after opening youtube and clicking on this video, then opening the can of coke that was already on my desk
9:20 took me a second to get the Brittany joke.
We just all gonna wait for everyone to go siren to the whoop ass song. Guys in hazmat
4:10 Love that edit. 👌😏
The healing incantations can carry you throughout the whole game.
Popped in to say I would love A DEMON'S SOULS run! go for it.
I’d love to see an Archer (Fate) build- could be nice to use a great bow alongside powerstanced daggers, with justification for any other weapon you want to use on the way.

For what it’s worth, I would be down for an entire souls series run.
While the Erdtree Seal may not outpace the finger seal early on, it has the highest scaling for healing, independent of Faith scaling (I use Dragon Communion deal with high Arcane and moderate Faith and Erdtree still heals more).
I'm a big fan of incantation healing, you can stretch your resources so far, patch up teammates, and delete accursed-type enemies
We gonna take some of the lessons we learned from the Vigor video? Cause that sounds neat.
Kind of? It ends up being a bit different strategy
13:54
Absolutely!
The final flavor got me.

Wow, this build is fanta-stic!
Though obviously with better origins. Don't Google who invented Fanta.
I was already a Sunkist fan when I learned that. I guess I can taste fascism
@@tulokthebarbrarian2033 Fascism, the forbidden Kool-Aid.
It's a stable product, but boy does it taste bitter.

I want to see a DS2 SOTFS run, it’s far under represented on RUclips
Definitely other souls games for sure!
Was actually drinking a cherry Pepsi while watching this
10/10 video, would love to see other games as well
I'm curious, where would it fall if it weren't for the cleanrot fiasco?
I would love to watch a Demon's Holes run, or a Dark Souls run, Dark Souls 3, Bloodborne, even Dark Souls 2 if you really want to. Your content is great and you can those games are great.
Yeeeeaaaaaa dudes of hazmat reference!
Would love to see a Dio run in the future
Something close is coming soon
I've been watching a lot of your videos lately and just noticed your cat in this video!! Give them pets for us RUclips viewers!
Does the speedrun reference mean the Flash is next?
Pepsi man will prevail
A true Chad drinks both coca cola AND pepsi, for he does not discriminate against brands.
You can, however, give dogs the gold can caffeine-free Diet Pepsi =)
More souls game? Yes, please.
Dark Souls 2 time, also known as Elden Ring 1.
If someone asks me "Is pepsi okay" the answer will always be NO!
You should do the best ranger weapon build. Or only ranger attack
Did you know coke and Pepsi are owned by the same people
YES DEMONs SOULS RUN‼️‼️‼️❗️
