Beating Elden Ring but I can only do 20 damage per attack (Briar Armor Roll Only Challenge)

Hot off the heels of my Shield Only challenge run, I decided to subject myself to the worst torture imaginable: beating Elden Ring with ONLY the damage from the Briar Armor! No Lightning Ram for me!

[Shezmen]

I fully endorse any type of mistreatment, disrespect or tactic against the Garbage Duo.

[ArchetypeJack]

Fire Giant takes forever on a normal playthrough, so I'd like to take this moment to pour one out for my guys sanity.

[aetriz]

That Briar armor challenge run was insane. I cant even imagine having that much patience

[jjknight]

Without a doubt, this I the most impressed I've ever been with a challenge run. Not to mention you clutching it TWICE with the wall mishap almost killing you and the grab in the final fight. Well played, you deserve to go into the Elden Ring hall of fame for this one dude 🙏🙌

[computerhardware]

Panic rolling isn't a mistake, its a tactic

[jakedong]

I love how you advertised many different creators and not just yourself. Truly a wholesome YouTuber and nice person.

[jyrichi]

I'm a fan of how you introduce each boss card with the freeze frame. Reminds me a lot of how the Yakuza Bosses are introduced lol.

[Hikakushio]

This challenge was stronger than any disease known to mankind, you cured my depression

[jacobjamieson]

Genuinely, you are one of the funniest channels I’ve found. The dad jokes are strong with you

[OnniHopeDream]

If my guess is within 2 minutes or 5% for the much longer bosses, I'm counting it as a win.
Margit: 7 mins
Demi-Human Queen Gilika: 5 mins
Godrick: 9 mins
Doggy: 3 mins (Exact guess!)
Rennala: 25 mins
Draconic Tree Sentinel: 30 mins
Godfrey: 13 mins
Morgott: 19 mins
Fire Giant: 80 mins (HA! Somehow proud of this guess)
Godskin Duo: 60 mins (I don't blame you.)
Maliketh: 25 mins
Gideon: 6 mins (Wasn't expecting that!)
Godfrey/Hoarah Loux: 32 mins
Radagon/Elden Best: 90 mins
Soldier of Godrick: 120 mins (Oof, didn't anticipate how long phase 4 would take...)

[cooltv]

"did you know the elden beasts arena isnt endless?"
I did actually, most of my later attempts ended up right against the wall somehow. we just kept moving away from the center for some reason
I almost had the elden ring happen near a wall once, and was absolutely terrified of it actually happening, congrats on surviving it!

[gideonofnir]

Ahhh, finally someone who struggled with me! Its nice to be appreciated.

[DeceptiKHAAAAAN]

I watch / listen to this video at least once per week while I’m playing Elden Ring. I just… I love how calm, natural-sounding, and funny you are. Thanks for all you do.

[Bobbyp]

Despite the fact that this video is over a year old and you still reply to comments warms my heart and tells me a lot about your character, you my friend deserve a subscribe

[boomknight]

24:30 Jelly fish shield. It gives a flat 20% damage when it's skill is active. so long it is in hand. From what I know it's not limited to having to have a weapon in hand.

[ItsVyy]

The hitboxes in every From game are not great but they've been steadily getting better since DS1. People should point out jank collision and hitbox issues in the game, especially if you want the game to improve.

[isaacm]

Soldier of Godrick must be so powerful that he is coded to recognize a hero who deserves a victory lap. Would love to see more testing on this from you and others but that is a many hundreds or even thousands of hours of theory and testing.

[carlosdario]

You have no idea how admirable and entertaining this is. Thank you so much, I’ve seen this like twice in three days.

[AdhDnD_Pod]

This is easily the greatest Elden ring challenge video I've watched, the background music, the boss intro cards, the clear and well written script, everything about this is amazing! Increadible work dude
