Bro, there’s a seal that scales with strength. Gurranq gives it to you, it’s either the first or second thing he gives you. And it would have been excellent here.
this is correct...but as I was between getting the clawmark seal and the gravelstone seal I said something like "I could use the clawmark seal. I have the stats, but the gravelstone seal is literally just a rock", it fit better thematically imo haha
Pretty sure cavemen believed in spirits and had some ritual thingis but a rock is also ok, besides, is not like beast incantations dealt a lot of damage even with a correct build
@@toneprime3622 Then bluntly your Defense must be horrible (which in the context of this run they would be but nothing you said implied that you were doing a run like this).

Through a process called knapping you can break obsidion into shards with edges sharper than modern high quality razer blades. But the brittleness that lets you knap obsidion greatly limits how big you can make a blade from it. So the Mesoamericans just stuck the obsidion shards into a club and replaced the pieces as they fell out. Simple, but brutally effective. And thats my weird knowledge tidbit for today :3
Every boss this run: “A tarnished? With no armor and just a big stick!? Haha!! This’ll be easy…wait why do I hear boss music?” Doom: I Unga, therefore I Bunga!!
@@DoomWolfOfficial bone darts would have also been appropriate cave man weapons in my opinion. also the claymans harpoon has a stone tip, so i believe that one also counts.
Cool video as always! Also, I see even less issue with upgrading your weapon since, y'know, its not *you* doing it. You just bring the rocks and the stick to the smith man and go "Make better."
I could see the clawmark seal and gravel stone seal going either way since taking the claws from a slain enemy for weapons makes sense, and like you said the other is a rock.
Would a Malenia themed run be too absurd? Like the 2 things that I had in mind are: - Malenia is permanently afflicted with starlet rot; - Malenia has never known defeat -> soo you kind of have to do it deadhless;
well, the hand of malenia is a katana so probably not that hard, also I could in theory allow one death, but after death have to take off all armor and heavily use scarlet aeonia (which might as well be the end of the run lol)
I'm always amazed at how much time you spend responding to everyone in your community. You're a good man. Cant wait for that bestial incantations only video. ;)
always the best vids !!! i recently finished a cosplay build of Gostoc and very highly recommend! essentially trying to find the most sneakiest cheesiest way to beat each boss using only what gostoc carries as equipment and on his bell bearing
This has reignited my want to bonk in elden ring again honestly those clubs were the only thing I really used first playthrough and when I learned power stancing was a thing it was double bonk all the time
Coming back to my favourite video of you after your latest upload. Still brings me the same joy as my first time watching it, when I was exhausted after work. If not better. Keep up the good work, mate.
Ramming rocks into a big stick is actually human lore-friendly, it was the Aztecs, I believe it was them, that would slot shards of obsidian into large sticks, I believe it was called "Niahtl"
I did a Neanderthal run. Tried to keep it as accurate as I could to paleo archaeological findings. He cannot use metal, shields, bows, or anything of complex design, nor can he use oversized logs as weapons. He is heavily invested in core stats and Intelligence. He always strives for Ranni’s ending as early shamanism implies our ancestors worshipped the stars Armor: He wears the Raiment set and hide bracers. Weapons: Spiked club, Stone club, Wooden club, Celebrants Sickle, Celebrants Cleaver, Crystal knife, Jawbone Axe, and the Clayman’s Harpoon (not metal it’s a sharpened meteorite) Ashes of War: Parry, Spectral Spear Throw, Giant Hunt, All roar variations, Wild Swings, and any basic thrusting AoW. Spells/incantations: Stone of Gurranq, Fire Cleanse Me, Flame Grant Me Strength. He cannot ride Torrent. Horses were prey items for early humans. “Cavemen” or Neanderthals died out roughly 30,000-40,000 years ago. Evidence of horse riding doesn’t start until about 5k years ago and that’s with sapiens, not Neanderthals.
@@DoomWolfOfficial he is by far my favorite and strongest character. He oddly works extremely well as a vanguard. The first 3 days I played with him he ended up farming enemies near Gurranq and has over 120 successful coop session with players in Limgrave and Liurnia. He’s good fun. I am planning on making another one and pushing him to near end game without leveling his equipment beyond 4 to keep helping people. He seemed to make people laugh and got good feedback in messages.
The Godskin duo is absolutely fine, if you summon absolutely everyone and gank the shit out of em that is. Dastardly sort ahead, therefore try revenge.
Im not an anthropologist but as far as cavemen and horses go: The first record of tamed horses occurs in 5,000 BC by the botai culture of modern day northern kazakhstan. The Botai were most likely memebers of the indo european language group, which later migrated into europe and south asia, creating the modern languages and people of Europe, India, Iran, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Around the time of the fall of Rome, however, the steppe indo europeans were wiped out and/or assimilated into turkic (central asians distantly related to the mongols and ancestors of modern central asia) related societies, which is why theres a gap between Europe and the India/Iran region.
Just wanna put out that Cro Magnon was the first humans to start wearing jewelry, so technically using talismans in this run would have fit within the theme.
I'm a bit of an unga-bunga-guru myself. For we have many good bonking sticks. Like bonking stick, bonking stick with bleed, bonking stick but larger, curved bonking stick, curved larger bonking stick and we can't forget the greatest holy bonking stick!
“Caveman good at swing stick, no good at wear necklace.” You’re a funny guy Doom 😂. Do a prospector challenge run with pickaxe, gravity chunk and glintstone consumables only.
@@DoomWolfOfficial once you got out of the early game and replaced the basic club, you were swimming through things, I just saw how close you were on Marghit and couldn't stop checking your mana bar to see if youd gone for the buff. And its not like the heavy attack on the Great Club isn't incredibly slow
Having just started my dagger only run I now appreciate how much of a pain Margit can be using bad un-upgraded weapons at a low level... I'm so used to exploring first before I fight him that I always thought of him as super easy, but god damn with a +1 knife and 10 vigour hes honestly tough.
I did this exact build and named the character Giga Neanderthal when Elden ring was 3 months into its life span the lack of defenses is okay because you get to deal so much damage and move freely with light load at all times and pvp was even more fun fighting 1v1 or invasion style as a cave man and something is so cathartic beating Demi gods to death with a club
My man the seal Gurranq gives you scales off strength. It is legitimately one of the best seals in the game for strength faith hybrids or strength mains that wanna be able to cast a couple of buffs or heals on the side because it’s incantation scaling goes up with strength. You even got it because it’s the first thing he gives you, the Clawmark Seal and the Beast Eye come together with the first deathroot you hand in. Also it gives a 10% power boost to Bestial Incantations, the only incantations you used. Good god man I know you wanted to keep the caveman vibe but the seal you used on the basis of it being a rock is a dragon scale, part of it still has colour either from corpse wax repair work or because it’s just still got the scale’s colour. Meanwhile the Clawmark Seal is literally a rock with a clawmark running through it which is pure caveman if you ignore the little embellishment around the rim where someone touched it up a bit.
Hey Doom, MA in Archaeology here. Horses were domesticated around 6000 BC which was stone age in certain parts of the world but in the area where they were domesticated, it was already bronze age. so run invalid. Wolves were domesticated 40.000 years ago though so you could totally have used wolf summons! and talismans, so long as they're not made from metal, were totally valid (bull goat talisman for the light roll...) but flasks? no sorry, run invalid... Loved the video man keep it up :)
Hey! Thanks for the lesson, I love learning things :) haha I definitely thought magic flask shouldn't count but I already did no healing and ehh it's fine haha
Horses were one of the first animals man domesticated. Unfortunately they were mainly eaten and it wasn't until the bronze age that Chariots took off, but there are occasional writings of men that rode horses even before Chariots became big.
I got the Rykard boss on my second try if I recall correctly... much to my surprise. I did similar here, I had a character with really high Vigor too and I did a lot of melee damage so instinctively just went right in. I don't think the game expects someone to be so insane as to stand in larva and indeed he just took hits while I took very little damage. Easiest unintended cheese fight ever
Yeah, as long as you have the health to withstand him occasionally spinning in place (and the multitude of explosions in phase 2) he's weirdly easy to do melee lol
I'm pretty sure a enemy in the underground can drop a furred vest or something like that, haven't playd in a hot minute and since caveman actually used furs itd make sense for a future run in your own time
there is literally the beast spells that you get from collecting the deahtroots, and the shaman armors you get in siofra. those would've made a lot of sense.
so I get the shaman clothes part but..bro, you know I used the beast incants in the run right? like I had them equipped throughout the majority and def remember hurling a rock at Malenia haha
As you ran past the deer was just stunned. Edit: as far as shoving stones into the club, they did that with obsidian. Caused grievous lacerations and left fragments of the obsidian in the wounds. Prevented blood clotting and caused infections.
oh I've known that for a while, it's just one of those things that because I was expecting the damage to do so little, I didn't actually make a connection that I had hit her during her defense increase and just assumed that was how little damage it was going to do haha
Short answer, horses were tamed at the end of the stone age, still in the "Cave Man" era, but well after the "Unga Bunga" era. For reference, the oldest intact bow found to date was made before the first horses were domesticated.

Anthropology major here, horses were domesticated 6000 years ago. So, nope, Torrent is very un bunga of you.
I'm so glad someone actually commented on that :D thank you!
@@DoomWolfOfficial of course! Thank you for the content!
16:03 "basically just tickled her" that will cost extra.
it always does ;)
Cave man: unga bunga💪🏿
Cave man with gavel of haima: i unga therefore i bunga🗿
the int caveman run, a true classic!
Horses were one of the first animals man domesticated. Unfortunately they were mainly eaten and it wasn't until the bronze age that Chariots took off, but there are occasional writings of men that rode horses even before Chariots became big.
Neat! Thanks for the info
@@DoomWolfOfficial
welcome
he became the Elden Lord à la Roosevelt: Bigstick Diplomacy
with this sentence I have had a flashback to when I was in high school learning about government lol
I got the Rykard boss on my second try if I recall correctly... much to my surprise. I did similar here, I had a character with really high Vigor too and I did a lot of melee damage so instinctively just went right in. I don't think the game expects someone to be so insane as to stand in larva and indeed he just took hits while I took very little damage. Easiest unintended cheese fight ever
Yeah, as long as you have the health to withstand him occasionally spinning in place (and the multitude of explosions in phase 2) he's weirdly easy to do melee lol
I'm pretty sure a enemy in the underground can drop a furred vest or something like that, haven't playd in a hot minute and since caveman actually used furs itd make sense for a future run in your own time
you can get a shaman set and it would fit, yes haha
@DoomWolfOfficial ah good I wasn't miss remembering!
Can’t wait to see the seal bonk only run!
What have I gotten myself into lol
I’d have allowed you swarm pots for the nobles, honestly. I feel what is more primitive than throwing a big handful of flies at someone.
the mental image of this was funny to me lol
A little late to the party but that spear actually belongs to the dragon!
Better late than never! Thanks :)
Waterboy… the toothbrush and alligator love it
Glad you got it my friend:)
My Mama says that alligators are ornery because they got all them teeth and no toothbrush 19:58
glad you got the reference :)
Awesome run! I was so stoked when I got the notification for a new Doom Video
Glad you enjoyed it my friend :)
Now with the DLC this build can finally have a piece of armour thanks fromsoft
If its the armor I think you're talking about, i don't know if I would ...tarnish, my character with that lol
Bro this is the best challenge for elden ring challenge runs I have ever seen.
it is the distilled essence of a challenge run, the beginning, and the end
Man I’m glad when he uploads it gives me something to do and I need things to do
I'll try to upload more lol
there is literally the beast spells that you get from collecting the deahtroots, and the shaman armors you get in siofra. those would've made a lot of sense.
so I get the shaman clothes part but..bro, you know I used the beast incants in the run right? like I had them equipped throughout the majority and def remember hurling a rock at Malenia haha
The Neanderthal Ring, coveted by all, beholden to those that unga and bunga
thy unga befits, thy bunga
Alligator with a toothbrush? Is that a wheres my water joke
Correct lol
From one caveman to another, UNGA!
BUNGA!
Alligator has all them teeth but no toothbrush. Lol
Someone has watched the Waterboy!
Bro the beginning got me rolling on the floor I bonk good 🗿 you bonk better 💀
I'm glad you liked it :) writing the intro is one of the most fun parts because it lets me be more creative and silly lol
man the plot in this story was amazing, especially when he went unga bunga and unga bunga'd god itself using a fucking tree
The tale of Grunk, bonker of gods
The roar talisman would fit because it’s just a goofy ahh lookin rock
haha, fair fair
Honestly, it would have been lore-appropriate to wear the shaman set, but the challenge makes it fun
looked it up, that does look thematic!
16:20 the rock did more damage because it was a counter attack, catching enemies while they attack does increased damage
I wasn't sure if it was this, or that she took less damage in the other instance...or both lol
Goddamn, that was one hell of a Waterboy reference :)
ayyy some people get the reference!
STR: ungu bungu
STR + INT: I ungu, therefore I bungu
STR + INT: what is a bonk? is it a feeling? an action? or is it...passion?? _smacks with massive stick_
This one is disguised as a pot and my one brain cell gets confused by that so I BONK had me rolling
Glad I could make you laugh lol
@@DoomWolfOfficial buddy you had me rolling and I had just got pizza earlier so I had to set the box down before I spilled everything
As you ran past the deer was just stunned.
Edit: as far as shoving stones into the club, they did that with obsidian. Caused grievous lacerations and left fragments of the obsidian in the wounds. Prevented blood clotting and caused infections.
Is that why our parents said to just rub some dirt in the wound? lol
@@DoomWolfOfficial good way to stop the bleeding, good way to make the infections worse.
I see unga, I see bunga. Me brain like much unga bunga.
unga bunga, the state of pure bliss
You should've worn the Hero's Waistcloth (or w/e it's called) to imitate a loincloth. It's made of uncured hide, so technically it fits the theme.
Didn't even know it was an option haha, too many armor sets to keep track of honestly
the reason that the rock did less damage the first time was because of the scarlet rot flower, it negates a decent amount of damage from attacks
You are correct! This is just something I forgot about while recording haha
16:24 you might know this by now but she takes much less damage when she does her Scarlet Aoneia attack
oh I've known that for a while, it's just one of those things that because I was expecting the damage to do so little, I didn't actually make a connection that I had hit her during her defense increase and just assumed that was how little damage it was going to do haha
6:50 bro really tried to sneak in a Ned Kelly reference
I had to look up who Ned Kelly was, so no I did not try to sneak a reference in lol
