Beating Elden Ring's DLC with ONLY Martial Arts
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
- Decided to do a challenge run using only the Martial Arts moveset from the DLC! I had viewers drop the weapons in Limgrave so I could also use them on the basegame, which was honestly quite strong. The new deflecting physick in the DLC might be my favorite item as well :D
Hope you enjoy the video and be sure to subscribe!
Deaths before the DLC: 10
Deaths before beating Dancing Lion: 22
Deaths from the DLC final boss alone: 91
Deaths after DLC: 1
Total Deaths in Base Game: 11
Total Deaths in DLC: 213
Total Deaths: 224
Wait who said you could post my stats here
very interesting stats. i would be really curious to compare these to how he performs in the dlc in a year
wrr
Where I got those
@@RedDragonFlayertriple it
Deflect and guard counter half the attacks, hyperarmor through the other half with Palm Blast. Absolute chad.
Wait, you can guard counter with the martial arts weapons?
@@avalokiteshvara113 you can guard counter with every weapon. And the DLC made it easier by getting you a deflect (timed guard) that lets you guard without taking damage.
@@AnActualDinosaur are you talking about the tear for the flask, or did i miss something?
@@kiwiiruna4800 pretty sure the dude thought deflecting was a normal function in the game and didn't know you can only deflect stuff if you drink a flask
You can always guard counter, you just take the guard damage in the stats page @@flappyflap2693

Scholar of the fist skin
I beat most of the DLC with that weapon. It was so fun. Smacking Messmer around with my fists was an experience I didnt know I needed. I abandoned them for the last boss though....
Yeah, that boss will fuck you up
Honestly, same.
that boss is when you let go of your morals and bring out the biggest cheese wheel you have.
That boss, first boss I'm using a bleed build on in a long time
@@EspyMellyI think you meant to speak for yourself but mispelled "I" as "you"
I like how instead of making a fancy new riposte animation for the martial arts, they kept the default animation where you just shove your fist inside their chest cavity
Peak Fromsoft laziness
@@somersaultinggiraffe1901 womp womp
@@somersaultinggiraffe1901 This needs to be called out a lot more often, and way more loudly. I swear, ... if gamers applied HALF of their unjustified hate for EA/Ubisoft and transformed it into justified criticism of Fromsoft laziness and incompetence, ... the world would be a better place.
@@smaller_cathedrals yeah, people love to act like Fromsoft is the greatest thing that's happened to the world, but the fact remains that their games have loads of mistakes that get shoved under because "hurr durr no microtransactions" i mean props to them for not making in game purchases, but that doesn't mean they can get away with lazy game design
@@somersaultinggiraffe1901lazy ? Have you avtually played elden ring? Lazy is the last thing ibwould call fromsoft 😂😂😂
Title says only martial arts but I clearly see him use throwing knifes therefore making the run invalid, I'm calling for an immediate reset
I've read enough manhua to know throwing knives count as martial arts
@@gg533Naruto they're always throwing kunai 24/7 too.
YOU ARE COURTING DEATH!!
@@gg533in that case knives, staffs and swords count too
@@xvpower The also throw meteors at eachother on Naruto

@xavier__-rackliff-_-3409 always that one dumbass that takes everything seriously
Bro ends stream and immediately drops this hell yeah.
Just a question, why did you edit in another phrase to explain your wording instead of just changing what the message says
@shroomian2739 i kinda just was overthinking it. Your right though it does make more sense to do it your way.
Does he have plan to play Chained Together? I found him during Only Up era and the game is similar to it except you need friends
that "DIE" in 20:08, just before the final punch was epic!
The Bayle fight was seriously so sick.
Sadly it just ain't the same without my Hype man Igon there, that voice actor did not get paid enough...
@@luketfer don't worry. his fight with Yosh in the Summons run was a sight to behold 👀
CURSE YOU BAYLE
Dude your Rellana was so fkn clean for her being a new boss. You’re cracked at the dlc already!!
i’m working on a run like this too! i’m at radahn and i’ve gotten past the nuke but still haven’t beat him yet. good shit bro!
Fromsoft should really make those new weapon types available in the base game, It'd be so much fun to not having to go through that trading stuff and still change things up a bit.
Depends on the weapon, like if it's in the last area or the middle of a dungeon you might be screwed, but quite a lot of them you can get relatively early by beating radahn yourself, doing varre quest early + summoning or cheesing for Mohg and then grabbing the weapon
Just enter the DLC early and then bring the weapons out, the only bosses you need to kill in the base game to enter the DLC are Mohg and Radahn or just use them in ng+
Wish the backhand blindside attack was useable on unarmed, such a missed opportunity..
Death counter craziness aside, that radahn battle was amazing.
20:09 Absolute Cinema
Edit: Palm Blast was so good for NPCs (Except Leda and her allies just because)
48:56 Damn, didn't know that, but still will not replace the bird coast for rune farm fowl foot.
1:18:36 Okay, palm blast worked on those 3 but not the other allies that should never be included and would stay that way, unless fighting a fighter build and a tank is fun.
Its hilarious to think literal gods and lords are dying to some dude just punching and kicking them the fuck out.
I desperately wanted to make Martial Arts work for the DLC Final Boss, but the lack of range and bleed buildup made it too depressing (and the L1 on my controller is broken so I couldn't even try using the Sekiro tear for safe guard counters), ended up getting it done with a Blood Twinblade.
Such a fun weapon though, I used Dryleaf Arts to beat literally everything else in the DLC as soon as I picked it up
Reading the chat during the melania fight is something
first phase of rennala had me dying when you were throwing the daggers
When i first encountered the lord of frenzied flame i though "oh what a cute little guy" then the mf started biting my leg
Honestly I’ve been using the martial arts only and it trivializes a lot of stuff. Very strong.
i used this on malenia and it was awesome. I infused it with cold and the frostbite was chef's kiss ❤
Got my sub off the twin moon knight fight bro you literally literally did sum MUI goku shi😂❤
These weapons combined with the deflecting hardtear turn the game into Sifu
Just finished. Was beautiful.
Those kicks remind me of High Monk
25:03 "milenia goddess of hawk tuah" (in the chat) never say that shit again
Should’ve named the video “Fisting Elden Ring bosses”
Thanks for cool video ^^
Would be nice to see how many fragments he has at what point in these videos ^^
Genuine question, but whats the general opinion about Gaius as a boss fight?
I thought he was one of the easiest bosses in the dlc, but i see a lot of comments in the chat saying how they hate him, was he that bad?
ur voice is soothing you sound like ikeepittaco but smoother
I love Dryleaf Dane, but he cannot compare to igon...
Gotta be a way to make a neo build with this
Cant wait for the po mod reskin for the main character
Airdtree
I say it like that too, has miyazaki pronounced it "urd" - tree ? Is it "aird" or "urd" idk lol
@@tuckervanleer8459 In german it's pronounced aird, so it's probably valid
is it me or is that scorpion centipede boss kinda...? y'know?
Quelaag flashbacks
i’ve never watched a messmer 2nd phase fight before (mine ended too fast cus i was at blessing lvl 15), so i never noticed that messmer’s serpent ressembles marika’s veil. messmer is copying his mom’s fashion
nice bro!!! how to do guard counter without taking any damage ?

i literally just now noticed that radahn’s feet are gone from the rot and he’s using gravity magic to keep himself upright. cool detail
MMA build is too cool 😎
Dry leaf is super strong. Palm strike is op
dud base bosses stand no chance against any dlc weapons its crazy
Perfume bottle next?
GG Dude!
Ahh... good times, pre-nerf radahn.
They haven’t nerfed anything in dlc yet
@@VorpalTiger ahh the joke went a mile over your head eh? Radahn in the DLC is pre--nerf Radahn before he fought Millenia and caught himself that there scarlet rot.
@@itsholidaybb well here is the thing tho base game radahn was actually nerfed to deal less damage because he was over tuned
@@VorpalTiger no, that was reverted the same day due it being accidental... that's from fromsoft themselves on their twitter.
The best player ever
God I like guard counter
reminds me of sekiro
How do you get Danes armor
How do you get 2 gloves?

Micolash gloves😂
So confused by torrent during Elden beast!?
What does the boiled crab do ? 15:28
Increase defense
Shadow of the Erd... what the sigma?
I have a new player on the PS5 that would like to do this same thing with. Can someone drop it for me because I really do not want to do another run with my main character to get back to the DLC just to get them. I would appreciate it. Combine with bleed as well please
How does he guard counter with only fists with no damage to him? Is it a specific buff?
New tear dropped by the first wicker man encounter
New Deflecting Tear for Wondrous Physick

how are you all this quick??? i just finished rellana and explored a bit further, meanwhile people already found every secret and are killing the apparently hard af final boss by clapping their asscheeks vertically or whatever..

LETSSSSS GOOOOO
no hit next

It's crazy the amount of gameplay hours ER has to offer now as a completionist play through.
How could you ever justify buying a game like Far Cry 6 or new AC games when games like this exist? 😂
This is good
hi. i'm someone. i died to the fucking squirrel.
make more videos with them
Gonna make a character that looks like the rock and name him Dryleaf Dwayne after this
i’m stealing this btw
@@Slothhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh good, we need all the Dryleaf Dwaynes we can get
@@zachj19991FAMILY.
The rock is legally not allowed to lose, so u better make it a no death run!
the combination of these weapons and the guard counter tear make for such a cool style of fighting to watch, it almost looks like a different game and probably feels like it
“Scadu” is the old English way to spell “shadow”. Skad-doo is more fun to say. But just for anyone who was wondering.
I was literally about to Google the meaning of Scadu lol
Thanks captain
I know it's still pronounced like "shadow" but tbh I'm still saying "skadoo" since it sounds cooler imo
The scadu fragments are actually called Scooby snacks
Skibidi tree as Elajjaz says.
Everyone knows they're Skibidi Fragments and that it's the Skibidi Tree.
LET'S GOO I HAVEN'T EVEN PLAYED THE DLC YET
Try stay as spoiler free as possible it's actually the best dlc
Marika dies
Spoiler: the tarnished dies a lot
No melina or GEQ answers too....
@@smegspreadermelina answers are there in messmers lore. Her and messmer are siblings of the first generation of demigods before even Godwyn. Siblings cursed like Malenia and Miquella as they are born from Marika and Radagon also. The abyssal serpent for Messmer and siblings that both have ties to the flame. Melina is the Gloam Eyed Queen and both her and Messmer have sealed eyes. This has huge lore implications as it means Radagon has been around longer than we realised as they most likely split in the same way Miquella split from St Trina. So yes this dlc confirmed ALOT about Melina. We already knew Melina was the GEQ from the Frenzy ending and wanting to return Destined Death to the lands, the dlc just confirms she broke her seal in that ending the same way Messmer broke his in the boss fight. Also if you go to Sharmans village (Marikas home) the incantation Minor Erdtree is stated to only be known by Marika, yet we see Melina using this exact spell in the fight against Morgott.
It's crazy to see the difficulty between the hardest base game bosses vs the average dlc boss
Was doing some co op and got summoned to base game after finishing the dlc. I was trying to pop a heal for the group and ate shit. I was like "fuck I'm dead," but then my character got up with plenty of health.
Malenia was the peak difficulty in base game. Rellana, 2nd dlc boss overtakes her 😂
Well, it depends on your build and experience. I played without summons for the first time so they were all pretty much the same to me. Because I had to learn the base game fights too, I just spammed Rock Sling while my Mimic tanked last year. People forget how much they have practiced the base game fights, that's why they feel easy. But if you take Scadu levels seriously, then the DLC is not harder. It is funnier though. And people have already found multiple ways to break it, perfumes and Greatshield pokes being 2. And none of the new bosses are harder than Malenia. Except maybe Radahn.
@@fishnutz5196 Malenia took me 6 hours and I was even lucky with RNG, she is basically as hard as Radahn the first time you fight her. But people forget how hard she used to feel, because of all the practice. Rellana was a joke in comparison, not even 10 tries. And the same goes for most of the others. The only real tests are Messmer, Bayle and Radahn. Unless you play with 0 Scadu levels. Or maybe my build was just too much of an easymode, Brass Shield and Serpent Hunter carried me through everything. I'm glad I didn't try a Greatshield because that would have made it too easy.
It's because we have had 2 years to learn the base game movesets. The dlc has only been out of a couple weeks
I’m glad people are seeing how insane the palm strike AOW is. Unless you’re killing nothing is stopping it
If you get statused like bleed or cold it will also cancel it
@@jackkelz2000 I think they also nerfed it recently so that blows. But I got the unpatched version so yeah lol, next to nothing can interrupt you. Status effects and MEGA slam attacks and I'm talking MEGA like a dragon falling on your face but even then lol... Sometimes you weather the storm. I did notice that horrible louie can knock you out of it easy with his axe. Dood is a crazy mf. And grab attacks will take you out of it too so it's not full proof. Also short range and takes a sec to pull off so you do need a good bit of armor and poise to stomach the abuse.
So like all weapons it's not perfect and has its ups and downs. One things for sure though... IT's up there in terms of pretty baller pve weapons.
The transition to Loretta was great haha.
God I wish the the parry tear thing was a permanent game mechanic you could use. Obviously it couldn't be as strong then, it would be bonkers, but it's just so cool.
Not even gonna lie. The only way I’m making it through most bosses is with my mimic and +25 stone slab shield. I’m also at 11 scadutree blessing and 6 for my summons. For me the DLC is a challenge and I do think it’s hard but I’m not complaining. I’ve always had the impression that they’re meant to be hard. I had to learn to control my button presses and be very deliberate. I learned early on that you can’t be a button masher in souls games lol
nothing is hard in Elder Ring if you don't deliberately hinder yourself. Mimic still trivializes everything, even in the dlc.
The Hoarah Loux fight was just two WARRIOOORs going at it, 11/10
martial art set is so unique and so fun, awesome vid!
DLC was fun I beat most of it within the first two days, only really had trouble with the final boss which took me easily over 100 try’s to finally beat.
moore only shows up after you convince him that life is worth living/to put it all behind (ironic)
freyja shows up after giving her ansbach’s letter, which is fitting since they’ll both meet each other on the battlefield
thiolier would never join leda and so wouldn’t ansbach since they serve different masters respectively
so the easiest way to do leda’s fight is probably to not talk to moore/convince him to… erm…, help leda with hornsent or help hornsent then off him at rauh, and to not talk to freyja. that way, only leda and dane show up i think
I actually didn’t know convincing Moore to move forward was the trigger for him appearing in the fight. Last time I’m ever being nice to a Fromsoft npc 😭
This is my new favorite weapon in the entire souls series. There is some soooo satisfying with it
Super stoked to see you're turning these runs into videos!
I can't wait for all the content on the dlc just like this. The next months are going to be a blast
Funniest thing for me is, you can put blood affinity to them, meaning you can literally punch enemies so hard they'll spit blood.
This is the first time I've seen the Godskin Duo not be HYPER aggressive 😂
Can you put a blessing counter when you do dlc runs?
Challenge runs already..... lets gooooo
I love how quick Dist is to put out content like this, you're always ready with the challenge runs
Choose your fighter!
Hoarang!
2 uploads in ten days. We are blessed!
palm blast has infinite poise lol
I wish you could start the game with a Deflecting Tear talisman or something
How much damage was lost going for cold with minimal Int?
Romina and Putrescent Knight, and Gaius to a lesser degree just don't let melee punish them.
No subtitles enabled for this one? :(
Also, if possible, should lower the sfx volume a tad. I am always amazed people leave it at default.
