After completing my usual quality checks, I can safely say this might just be the best video my husband has made. The dad jokes are still pants though….
What an incredible journey. That twist at the end had me on the edge of my seat, I genuinely didn’t expect it. Fantastic edits and jokes all throughout!
I always love finding elden ring challenge runs that use spirit ashes, they’re a part of the game and everyone looks down on them, they make the game way too easy which is why I get why people don’t use them and why I don’t use them myself (unless a boss summons stuff or is a 2v1) but in runs like this you need all the help you can get
you have no idea how much I love your vids and channel. every new vid is like a gift from a dear friend, and I especially love the cheesy jokes lol. keep up the good work mate.
This was great. I really liked the puns this time around. All in all, I really like runs like these because they just make the player try out a lot of different weapons and spells they wouldn't normally use.
I really like them as well! When I first play these games, I often end up using one or two weapons and that's it. This kinda thing forces me to try stuff outside my comfort zone! Glad you liked the video 🤗
Putrid Avatar rot stomp is actually the best punish window for them. You can roll towards and around the avatar as the rot pools don't spread backwards
The fact you did the last fight with your fists made me so happy. I saw you walking up to it with all the gear and I was like, "The final boss is more deserving of a man to man fight, use your fists" and you truly came out on top.
ah rick soldier of god, a worthy opponent indeed. Going through and watching these has been very nice during recovery, as well as kinda inspirational for my own silly challenge run. and randomizer, but my randomizer is babying me -__-
not sure if you knew this or someone else has said this but the godslayer greatswords ash of war has a follow up which is another swing. also the reason the gargoyle sword damage was so high on the deathbird was cos it deals holy damage which deathbirds are very weak to. anyways other than that, great video with an amazing conclusion
I love this channel so much. From top 10 worst runbacks to a crazy hour long murderous ditto challenge. Excited to see what you come up with in the future.
Doing the dragon barrow mini bosses during the caelid section and the moonlight altar mini bosses during the liurnia section is insane and I might be more impressed by that than 90% of your other challenge runs
Oh god, I was rewatching this and just realized Recurring Knight-Mare That was slipped in so seamlessly I love it; I have a lot to learn about annoying my partner with terrible jokes :)
30:51 that was an honest-to-god good pun. Well done. 37:10 all jokes aside, the concept of the Fallingstar Beast Jaw reminds me of Samson, the long-haired biblical strongman. It’s said that he once slew a thousand men with just a donkey’s jawbone, so that’s why. 43:59 you can actually circle around the avatar when it does that attack! The rotten sludge (?) only sprays out in front of it.
@@JKLeeds Just finished the vid. These puns got me chucklin' quite a bit, keep em up! I've watched your other elden ring vids as well and I hope to see more vids sometime. My thanks, that must've been quite some work
Has anyone done all 165 bosses, but switched to whatever weapon the boss used after every boss? Ngl that would probably be less painful than this challenge because you can use solid weapons like the staff of the avatar, nightriders halberd and Marais executioner sword multiple times
I think distortion did a run killing all 165 bosses with a different weapon/spell/incant for each but not specifically the weapon/spell/incant that the boss drops.
This is truly the world's greatest piece of media ever made It truly brings me to tears with this spectacular finale for 59 minutes I watched absolute perfection with the world's most hilarious humor so sophisticated their only true true artist understands its beauty thank you for your amazing work JK Leek
@@JKLeeds OK, wise guy. How a "only good jokes, zero puns, intricate lyrics flow" run? You can choose your weapon, tho. (I'm kidding, I love your puns and rapping).
Tip for the putrid avatars: you don't have to run from their rot attack butt slam. Stick close and dodge roll once to their side to the slam then immediately roll again to get behind. The rot only goes forward in a triangle so you'll be out of the rot entirely this way
Here a little late, but it was worth the wait! Another well done challenge, brother 🍻 long may the sun shine! Edited to include a dad joke of my own: JK: The Elden Lord will decide your fate. Tree Sentinel: I *AM* the Elden Lord! JK: Not. Yet. TS: *brandishes halberd* It’s tree-son, then.
@@JKLeeds By the way, I’ve played Souls and ER with my son strapped to me before. He isn’t teething yet, but I can say that I too know the struggles of fighting bosses while being a good dad. Good work, king
For Dealing with the putrid avatars' jumping rot attacks, i suggest running to their sides and rolling once they fall to avoid the rot completely as well as having a huge opening. I hope this helps with beating a not so difficult boss faster.
37:10 me: **clicnches fists and shakes them raging at the ceiling** "The PuNs MaN!!!!!" FR tho. This one perforated me right in my duodenum... either the pun or a raid from the guild... "H Pylori"
Did you not know you can hold meteor? The spell is actually really strong against big bosses. It looks so funny when you just let the first wave fly LMFAO.
Dragon Head incantations should be used midair (if that wasnt patched out), since you rise higher into the air even after jumping, making you dodge some attacks.
I think you missed the Black Knife Assassin in Altus who drops the group's namesake weapon. So you did have one more option for what to use against Lansseax.
@@genericname6505 Good to know. I was wondering about that as well, since I'd definitely consider it a field boss, but I couldn't remember if it had a boss health bar and maybe that was why he skipped it if it didn't.
Yeah so have to confess, way back when I made these videos, I for some reason thought you couldn't get into the Hero's Grave without killing the Black Knife Assassin which I now know of course is not the case, but that's the reason I counted it as part of the dungeon at the time.
@@JKLeeds Ah, that makes sense. I imagine most players wouldn't even try to enter the dungeon without killing it unless they specifically just wanted something from in there, so it's understandable to not realize you even could. I discovered your channel relatively recently and have been slowly going back through your video watching them at random. Been really enjoying your content, even if I'm at a constant battle with myself on whether I love or hate your puns. Keep up the good work.
@Gamer3427 funnily enough, my wife has a constant battle as to whether to divorce me or not whenever she hears them so you're not alone in that regard. Glad you've been enjoying the content and thank you for supporting the channel 🙂
holy shit how did you beat Soldier or godrick yet alone fists only, i could barely beat him with a +10 serpent hunter with maxed stats and flasks not that the flasks mattered due to how fast his combos are, the fact you managed to beat him fists only is insane to me.
Wait, the shield flames against the putrid avatar looked literally incredible. You said "in practice it left me open to being smashed" but that smash was blocked and did almost no damage. A bit confused on that one, maybe you used the wrong clip on accident or something?
Actually it's because in that clip I had the single hit bubble shield up that you get from Wondrous Physick. If I hadn't had that, it would have been one shot easily
This guide enabled me to teabag the Bell Bearing Hunter in Caelid. Without this guide, the Bell Bearing Hunter would have never tasted the sweet nectar that is my ballsack. Thanks, JK Leeds!
Actually adding onto this - could go for any npc enemies at all, like moongrum or the mimic tears in nokron. And to add an extra layer of challenge, you can only use resources collected from these enemies within the area you got them (E.G. Can only use Great Stars in Altus)
Dragon claw uses red lighting whitch should do well against ancient dragons I'm pretty sure the claw is in the same group as the bolt of gransax and the lighting dragon king claw rapier thing
Lovely video! But I would’ve actually used the Dragon Greatclaw against one of the dragons because it has a passive that makes it deal somewhere between 10-15% more damage against ancient dragons (like Lansseax) and 20-30% more damage to normal dragons!
Good to know! I would have only been able to use it against Lansseax really. I think the Fallingstar Beast Jaw did more damage in the end. Glad you liked the video 🙂
Funny thing is, I cant beat the black blade kindred yrying to cheese it, but give me heavy armor and a shield and its dead. Those octopusses (yes thats grammatically correct) can kill theodorox themselves.

This was a super entertaining run and your ability to fight bosses and be a dad simoultaneously is truly incredible
Thank you 😊 it's a skill that took a lot of time to master!
What an incredible journey. That twist at the end had me on the edge of my seat, I genuinely didn’t expect it. Fantastic edits and jokes all throughout!
Thanks! I really worked hard on this one and happy it turned out well ☺️
Very cool idea making these runs form a trilogy. Entertaining, informative and funny at the same time. Well done again!
Thank you! They were fun to make and I'm glad you liked them 😃
seeing you not realise you can hold down meteorite to cause it to fire off more projectiles per cast hurt me emotionally.

Best souls RUclipsr! Putting baby to sleep with Elden Ring😂😂
You may have failed to kill that Putrid Avatar like a Death Rite, but you still managed it as a Dad Rite.
My boy really be rapping like Pops from Regular Show
Great comparison 😂😂😂😂
sounds interesting, ill def give you my highest reward i can give, ill eat my dinner to this
I feel honoured 🎖 🥰
I'm playing Elden Ring for the first time, and when Agheel came crashing the zombie party at the lake, I was like "Okay, thanks bro"
That intro literally changed my life
Gotta admit that rap was actually pretty good
I think you can hold the mouse button to cast infine meteorite not only 3 ( its the amount of your FP) just wanted to say that also great videos
Yeah I learned this afterwards, might have made my life easier. 😅 ah well
I still find it funny how in the intro, your character doesn't actually die when killed, they just keep moving as the camera fades to black.
Never thought Leeds would be capable of defeating Rick, Soldier of God so easily. Props to you my man 🥹
Thanks friend! To be fair, I didnt put the 1000+ deaths before that victory in the video due to time 😂😅
Oh god, I was rewatching this and just realized
Recurring Knight-Mare
That was slipped in so seamlessly I love it; I have a lot to learn about annoying my partner with terrible jokes :)
Ah glad you liked it....wait what do you mean "terrible jokes"? Don't you mean incredible, devastatingly funny jokes? 😄

The incessant use of bad puns borders on sociopathic. You know it makes some people want to die, and yet you continue to do it.
The putrid avatar part with your baby was really cute😭😭😭
New challenge. OP weapons/build, but you have to entertain/nurse/feed your kid while playing. Joking aside, that was a sweet moment, btw.

Dragon Head incantations should be used midair (if that wasnt patched out), since you rise higher into the air even after jumping, making you dodge some attacks.
I can’t believe the soldier of Goodrich was defeated…
You could always make it a quartology and add "only gear dropped by generic enemies"
Grafted Scion tip: when he does his jump attack roll under him, free shot
I think you missed the Black Knife Assassin in Altus who drops the group's namesake weapon. So you did have one more option for what to use against Lansseax.
Based on their Minor Dungeon video, I think they count the Black Knife Assassin as being part of the dungeon that it's outside

A 1 hour long JK Leeds video? Count me in!
Enjoy! 😃
38:33 - Enemy Felled? More like "Enemy Fell"!
Now all that's left is to beat Elden Ring with your child strapped to you for every boss fight!
I mean...I did basically do that across these videos 😂 most fights were done this way!
The first time I played the game I got hung up on beating that tree sentinel without getting anything new or leveling up it took me hours lol
I assume that is exactly why that tree sentinel is statistically one of the bosses with the most killed tarnished
Whats with the slow poison of dad jokes with intervals ?!?!?!?!?!
You just gave me flashbacks of in the nightgarden

U can parry the grafted scion pretty easily for future reference lol

What about the godskin noble at the bridge leading to rannis corpse in liurnia?
Here's a thought if it works: Beating elden ring with only items dropped by invaders (Including invasions from varre/volcano manor)
Not a bad idea! 🤔
Actually adding onto this - could go for any npc enemies at all, like moongrum or the mimic tears in nokron. And to add an extra layer of challenge, you can only use resources collected from these enemies within the area you got them (E.G. Can only use Great Stars in Altus)
Dragon claw uses red lighting whitch should do well against ancient dragons I'm pretty sure the claw is in the same group as the bolt of gransax and the lighting dragon king claw rapier thing
you can hold the meteor spell and spawn more meteors continuously
Are the meteors meatier than the other meteors?
@@JKLeeds sadly no they are the same
That's unfortunate.
Lovely video! But I would’ve actually used the Dragon Greatclaw against one of the dragons because it has a passive that makes it deal somewhere between 10-15% more damage against ancient dragons (like Lansseax) and 20-30% more damage to normal dragons!
Good to know! I would have only been able to use it against Lansseax really. I think the Fallingstar Beast Jaw did more damage in the end.
Glad you liked the video 🙂
@JK Leeds Magma Wyrm counts as a dragon so you did get the 30% damage boost.
Funny thing is, I cant beat the black blade kindred yrying to cheese it, but give me heavy armor and a shield and its dead.
Those octopusses (yes thats grammatically correct) can kill theodorox themselves.
While I agree with your reason for not fighting Lansseax with the twinbird kite shield. I do feel cheated.
Beat the whole of Elden ring while holding a baby
I've basically done that a couple times now 😂
Did he not know you can hold meteorite? 😅 it's actually pretty good at killing bigger bosses, lol
Yk with all of the putrid avatars with that jumping attack all you have to do is roll circle to behind it and attack while it recovers
Hmm interesting! I thought the rot also sprayed out behind them?
Am I tripping but did you get the one Demi human queen in that church in weeping peninsula? I guess she just drops a staff though
I didn't but she doesn't have a boss health bar so I didn't count her
@@JKLeeds ahh I see I see understandable and respectable.
7:03 add on the bastard is more often than not in water, and Elden Ring operates under Dark Souls 2 logic with that situation.
Yeah not ideal for sure!
54:16 absolutely hilarious and rather wholesome
Genuinely was how about 90% of this run was completed 🤣
46:46 no sceentext showing "recurring Knightmare"?

Did you get the grafted greatsword?
