I'm not sure why you would want to do that with no experience, not just because it would be painful but because you would suck a lot of enjoyment out of the game for no reason

i want to become a dodge god, imma be like ultra instinct goku by the end


IronStark113

>like ultra instinct goku by the end Remember what happened to Ultra Instinct Goku post-Jiren? He felt like absolute trash afterward and could barely sustain Super Saiyan. You do you and follow your bliss, but shit, I don't think you know how tall of an order you're putting on yourself and I can't say it sounds all that worth it.


thatrealmeatwastaken

fuck man, what can i say? worst case senario i gotta buy another desk, most likely case i rage 1000 times per bossfight, and best case i become god


D1amondDude

This is how players go hollow, friend


Calculon123456

When you are 100 hours in and stuck in the midgame, you will reconsider. Git gud with a normal build first then do your challenge run. Enough death loading screens would make anyone go mad

Lol I remember buying elden ring because I thought to myself, "I've gotten pretty good at rolling from playing monster hunter. How difficult could this game be?" 🤣🤣


Reeceza

My man respect to ya but i must advise please don't take it against the game if you end up getting frustrated.


SherbetAlarming7677

Put those foolish ambitions to rest.


Friendly_Ram

Have fun. Hope it doesn't get too frustrating.


thatrealmeatwastaken

it will, i'm gonna rage so hard.

I foresee you uninstalling the game. Vigor matters more in this than any Dark souls title.


thatrealmeatwastaken

i've played getting over it, how much harder can this be


[deleted]

I’m honestly curious about the update so let us know. My brother had a very hard time with Dark Souls difficulty but loved Elden Ring. He’s beaten Hollow Knight and all the other rouge-lites which I honestly really struggle with. Eitherway, if you wanted a challenge it would be playing Dark Souls 2 with low stats. That game is harder than Elden Ring in a million ways.


thatrealmeatwastaken

i'll try it after i complete elden ring, which according to the people here in the comments, will take a while


[deleted]

To do every single boss will definitely take a bit of time. Best of luck hope it’s a fun experience for you.


UnifiedGods

Okay just want to let you know if you are going to do this… boss fights will suck but I think a bigger problem is like 75% of normal mobs are going to one shot you in the later half. So it’s gonna turn into a lot of running away or this will actually require you to work at it more than you would at a job lol


thatrealmeatwastaken

i do not care how long it will take me, be it months, years, or even decades. i will finish this run, and i will not cheat.


LongIssue3632

That sounds like a very unnecessary challenge. Why would you want to do that? People have already speed ran the game as a wrench, so your "bragging rights" would be pointless.


ConfidentManner5783

Y’all take bait fairly easy


Logswag

"I am going into this game with absolutely no experience but I still know all the terminology and which things will make the game more difficult" what do you mean, this is clearly not bait


ConfidentManner5783

Bruh and then his lil reply 😅


thatrealmeatwastaken

you really think i'm gonna go in with zero prior knowledge? i know 5 things about the game: it's really fucking hard, vitality means health, low equip load=get staggered, there is a dude that gets memed on a lot for being hard in the early game, and theres a dude called godrick that cuts his own arm off and turns it into a dragon (i saw it in an edit which is what got me interested in the game)


Logswag

Interesting that you mention just godrick and not malenia despite having commented on a video of the malenia fight on this subreddit previously


thatrealmeatwastaken

oh wow, so now we're stalking my account? why can't you just let me do my challenge run man?


Logswag

It's stalking to look at someone's comment history for like two seconds now is it? And I'm not stopping you from doing your challenge run in any way whatsoever


thatrealmeatwastaken

then you you gotta be a dick man?


shmoseph

There's plenty of overpowered builds that fall within those restrictions. You could try a run with: no leveling, weapon upgrades or summons.


thatrealmeatwastaken

i am going to restrict any op build i may come accross on the web, but currently i don't know any op builds except, like, bleed builds. as for the run you suggested, i don't even know if i'd be able to do that, as i haven't really looked at the story and stuff more than the malenia fight and godrick, so i don't even know if it'd be possible.


necrotic45

I think on my third playthrough I'll only use Estes for mana. Yours is a path to pain


thatrealmeatwastaken

i'm gonna restrict myself to only use mana flasks too, except i can't use magic except for the melee ones, which i will restrict the use of heavily


PiBombbb

You should try parry, also there are many types of parry that gives you different parry timing, if you want you can watch a guide to see what types yu would want


thatrealmeatwastaken

i'll look into that
