Darkish Souls 3’s hardest bosses are routinely getting punished by Elden Ring’s most devoted gamers as they await the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC to lastly launch.
Three YouTubers, Lellollo, Kyoufo, and YSh0T, carry the torch that JPNB left behind once they retired from preventing Malenia, Elden Ring’s most brutal boss, day-after-day till the DLC announcement. Again then, Lellolo was solely round 134 days into dueling Gael on the ashy outskirts of Darkish Souls 3’s Ringed Metropolis DLC. Right this moment, they’re on day 399, and Shadow of the Erdtree does not also have a particular launch date but.
Gael is not fairly as robust as Malenia, however if you’re carrying nearly nothing like Lellollo, a single hit might be the top. Their newest video echoes what it was like watching Let Me Solo Her’s 1,000th try on Elden Ring’s Goddess of Rot with a full 5 minutes of swish dodging and precision strikes. Each struggle is clear, whether or not they’re sporting twin Uchigatanas or cosplaying as Melina gripping a Morion Blade. That is what spending over a yr preventing a single boss does to you.
Earlier this yr, Kyoufo ran a rival day by day problem the place they fought one of many hardest dragon bosses within the Souls collection, Midir, day-after-day till Lellollo stopped bullying Gael, a type of funky, fractal problem parodying the very thought of those boss struggle marathons. As you now know, Lellollo nonetheless hasn’t had cause to cease, and Kyoufo determined to finish their very own problem after 49 days with a Swiss Military Knife construct of crossbows and magic as an ode to Boba Fett. Just a few days later, nevertheless, they moved on to operating what is likely to be the toughest struggle in all of FromSoftware’s video games, with the intent of maintaining it up till Shadow of the Erdtree’s launch.
Sister Friede is a 3—sure, three—half struggle towards a Scythe-wielding nun and her indignant big good friend. It is a brutal, taxing struggle that no one ought to spend 135 days repeating, however right here we’re. Right this moment, poor Sister Friede acquired torched by the Immolation Tinder, one in every of Darkish Souls 3’s strangest weapons that’s each a employees and a halberd.
In the meantime, YSh0T has saved Ringed Metropolis superboss, Darkeater Midir busy for 262 days whereas they too await the DLC to come back out. They crushed the beast in beneath a minute with a Greataxe yesterday, however they’ve a whole bunch of different movies utilizing varied different weapons and builds, too.
All three of those extremely vigilant gamers may not have to attend an excessive amount of longer. Ziostorm, A identified Elden Ring rumormonger who has an admittedly inconsistent popularity with reporting leaks claims sources instructed them Shadow of the Erdtree can have a February fifth launch date introduced at The Recreation Awards in December. FromSoftware hasn’t mentioned a phrase because it dropped the unique mega hi-res announcement picture in February, however the developer is understood at hand over its greatest trailers to Mr. Keighley in recent times, so it appears seemingly that we’ll see one thing there.
