Rusty's Weapon Ranking - The PROBLEM With Elden Ring Tier Lists

We've never come across a good Elden Ring Tier List, and that's because people don't seem to know how to apply the proper criteria for PvE and PvP. Rusty's "Ranking all the weapons in Elden Ring" video is NO EXCEPTION. Ranni, the Witch, tells you all about it.

0:00 - Intro
1:10 - Rusty's Tier List
6:58 - "It's only his opinion"
7:44 - Schrödinger's Joke
8:26 - My Tier Lists
12:56 - Outro & Mystery Weapon

Aight, a couple things:

1) This video is *NOT* meant to spread hate towards Rusty nor is it a personal attack towards him, as some people are making it out to be. It is merely criticizing his goofy ahh Tier List, which is *NOT* above criticism. I sincerely can't believe that I have to clarify this to an audience of grown adults who believe that I'm "spreading hate", but here we are.

2) I know, the KG and the BKG have the same moveset, I made a boo boo there.

3) I got another thing wrong. Fingerprint shield is NOT the ONLY other madness weapon. That'd be the Frenzy Seal too. Only that Fingerprint is a million times better and worthy of mention. It also felt right because he included torches (which are not weapons per se either)

4) I know he mentioned that Mohg's spear should've been #1, but that's like saying "yeah, Apples make better hammers than Oranges". It still would not be #1 according to his criteria (but Mohg's is actually quite good)

5) If you believe Rusty's list should not be criticized because "it's not serious" (despite he claiming that he tried to be objective as possible), then does that mean that you should not criticize my video if I claim it's a joke too? 🤔

That aside, what's YOUR favorite weapon?

Rustys Community pushed him to make that list harder than ChaseTheBros community pushed him to review that damned torch XD

One day someone's gonna make a tierlist of Elden ring tierlists and Ranni's gonna lose her mind

[The_Ragequit_Cannon]

Ranni's got a bone to pick with every tier list maker it seems

[First_in_Last]

The finest weapon in elden ring is the friends me made along the way.

[TNinja]

I just want to see Rusty mald about 300 weapons for an hour.

[Jtbown]

I still like Rusty's sarcastic don't give a fuck attitude in his videos. He'd probably watch this video and laugh.

[ryanallen]

Seeing Waifu go after Rusty reminds me of when my parents fought in the next room when I was a kid

[void_eater]

" nice glowstick bro." is pretty realistic for me since i just used its glow instead of a torch or lantern

[FirecrackerXxX]

As a cleanrot knight, I am offended that halo scythe wasn’t given the attention that it deserves in the tier list. 7/10

[spore_gun]

Im gonna finish watching this video but i gotta say rusty fanbase had been essentialy begging for a allweapons tier not for its actual use but just because it would be funny to make him rank 300 weapons. If my memory serves correct rusty usually makes his videos in categorys. So everyone please go easy on him

[ArkbladeIX]

How is "trying to be objective" confusing to you? He said that because its impossible to be objective with any ranking/tierliest. The reason why you try anyway is because the result is a tidy summation of what the creator values. It wouldn't be any fun if he just rolled a dice to see what ends up where.

Another thing that bothered me is that you said "everyone agreed with him" with a screenshot of nobody agreeing with him. Rather, nobody was agreeing or disagreeing. They were just having fun watching the absurdity of someone trying their absolute hardest to rank 300 things.

Also, the screenshot on 7:48 proves that it's not a Schrodinger's joke. Ranking all weapons has been a long standing joke that has been referenced in multiple videos leading up to this one. The joke, again, is that it would be absurd if someone were to try their hardest to rank 300 things.

Even if the ranking was meant to be taken seriously, cherry picking the placement of around 7 weapons out of 300, then calling the whole ranking bad, is quite petty and is objectively bad criticism. Even more petty is that your "correct ranking" to "prove it's possible to be objective" only has 5 weapons of your own choosing.

The candlestand as a top 15 weapon while Darkmoon Greatsword is chilling in the 50s is so funny to me

[Holygrailprincess]

If I recall right after making this he came out and said it should be Mohg's weapon due to his other ash of war list.

[Easton]

lol I don’t get the point of this video.
He ranked 300+ weapons in one video, just let him sleep

[auroracorps]

I can't help but laugh while watching this video, cause with how rusty has established himself in game as a court jester who lost his mind decades ago, I'm picturing ranni trying to do an analysis on someone from the insane asylum.

If you have seen any of his videos, you know what I'm talking about!

[wayfunlathom]

At least he’s not a clout chaser or trying to get you to spend IRL money on runes. If you’ve kept up with all these videos, clear, that the only reason why that he chose Vyke’s War spear, because he’s also inflicted with madness.

[UzkatexiT]

Hey, everything is fine with your video but I don't understand why you are so vicious in criticizing Rusty's video when he made it very clear in the video that it is not a tier list and that possibly there were going to be inconsistencies and strange things, it is noticeable that with some positions I put them in the place where they are simply out of laziness since there are 300 weapons, we must also keep in mind that their opinion is based on experience and focused mainly on pve when your comparisons are almost exclusively in pvp

One more thing, I don't understand why if he made the video discarding the shields then why do you use it as an argument? It doesn't make sense, it's like I make a tier list of the Halo weapons and you complain that I didn't put the vehicles since several of them have weapons attached

p.s possibly the comment is a little incoherent because I'm using Google Translate and I'm only using it because apparently people are lazy enough not to hit the automatic translation button even though it doesn't cost anything and this does it I say from my own experience, even so I am willing to write in Spanish to be able to explain my point clearly.

[BurgerBoy]

I’m sorry, but at the start you confirmed that he was excluding shields from this tier list, and you complain about vyke’s war spear not being the only weapon with madness, a “SHIELD” has madness too.
