Elden Ring - Gehrman, the First Hunter vs Malenia - NG+7 (No Damage) 

Whats worst is Bloodborne is literally Lovecraftatian horror where you fight beasts and aliens that you don’t even know and they can only be killed by an omnipotent power

@@SexLuthor A few bored college students with bats.

Bro upper cathedral ward and hypogeon

@@MegaDragon1983 but they were simply build different

@@hayderal3825 hypagean gaol is true horror especially the soundtrack (which isn't even a soundtrack but an actual ritual going on in the game that just makes the place a whole lot creepier).

It actually kind of applies here because she gave into the rot, which is similar to hunters becoming blood-drunk in Bloodborne.

@@captainblue5096 but you gotta admit The Hunter's life runs on vials of infected yet effective blood, otherwise The Hunter wouldn't be able to face Yharnam and Mergo's Wet Nurse, ending the never ending But Malenia goes high on rot to troll the Tarnished and make herself a memory that will never fade.

“It doesn’t matter. It always comes down to the hunter’s helper to clean up these sorts of messes… tonight… *Gehrman joins the hunt…*

@@Frostborne2778 Gehrman is BADASS. He's old but he can still fight like a hunter. Miyazaki did that to Isshin Ashina in Sekiro too. Miyazaki respecting elders.

@@kombatant648 Fear the old man in a profession where men die young

Incredibly well

Best line in gaming history, change my mind.

@@nkn0wn74 Yeah I got chills on the first run.

@@Cavar21 I started getting chills when the crippled old man stood up from the wheelchair.

Gehrman is badass!

THERE WILL BE BLOOD (BLOOD) SHED (SHED)

@@SexLuthor IT'S THE ONLY THING I'VE EVER KNOWN!!

Also, just the image of Gehrman doing that puts a smile on my face, almost makes him seem younger.

“A red flower? I much prefer this over a red moon my dear.”

They’re really useful, especially if your weapon is a slash type sometimes the stepback attack or crouch attack (they do the same attack) you do a thrust attack on some weapons which is kinda good and saved my ass countless times, I’m really surprised that you barely see that lol

@@bayabooz4855 I'm not saying backstepping is a hidden gem that I'm shocked nobody uses, I'm saying that I'm impressed by OP for incorporating a clunky and nonviable tech into a video because it looks good. Backsteps are just bad, period. Ofc there are very niche uses such as canceling charged attacks on a very limited set of weapons, but they demand you stop all input on your joystick, only to travel less distance than a roll and have no s doing it. They interfere with normal gameplay far too much and give nothing in return.

Because it sucks outside Dark Souls 2

probably havent seen anyone use them, because they dont work. this guy is modded, using macros, or something

@@curtisfarley6558 You would know that I already know that if you were to glance the only other comment I made under my own.

Thanks Sultan, really glad you liked it! 😁

You should do lady Maria next

@@SmvR Wouldn't it make sense to have something to represent his scythe untransformed? I assume the closest would be something like Beastman Curved Sword.

probably using macros or something, didnt it look unnatural to you? ive seen the very best do RL1 runs, and dodging the moonviel art looks nothing like this

@@curtisfarley6558 bruh stop crying…smvr is not a cheater. Man’s just talented.

@@curtisfarley6558 he is using the rig which give you more eye frames while being on a light load makes you take like 30 percent more damage but it doesn't matter cus he has no hp

@@monty520 no he isn't. The green turtle talisman doesn't give s, the claw talisman doesn't, the axe talisman doesn't, and the dagger talisman most certainly doesn't.

@@user-pn4px5lr8w No but the Crucible Feather Talisman does edit: my bad I didn't see you were talking about the symbols under the bars

Malenia took me longer than even The Old Hunters bosses but I like the idea of Gehrman being unphased by it.

Lets face it if you want to go by actual lore of the verse melania would wreck gehrman

how does gherman mentor anybody? he is either sleeping or gone for the whole game lmao

@@thelambsauce2017 I think both Lady Maria & Lady Malenia can wreck Gehrman low to mid diff

@@hanyu_dada maybe cuz when we see him he doesn't have a leg and about 100+ years old also he did train multiple huters like lady maria that's why her style looks alot like his

this will help me in future runs as mage too, since she tends to spam this attack against spellcasters when she does not dodge spam

@@thanquolrattenherz9665 she usually only triggers is two or three times. You can bait it out at 75% health, can't remember when else.

@@alexandervowles3518 im pretty sure it depends on range too since i had it only one time herdoing it with my dex char but had it 5 times or more with my mage

@@alexandervowles3518 "only two or three times" isn't little, bro, when it definitely kills you

@@alexandervowles3518 False. I’ve seen her use it four times nearly consecutively between me and my Mimic Tear on Phase 1.

Don't get into this mindset! If you want to, you can be just as good. All you need to do is to practice. Anyone can achieve greatness!

@@ziziorens348 exept you have no eyes and arms or work as a gamesjournalist.

Seeing Malenia land the Scarlet Aeonia miles away from the player kinda looked sus to me. Specialy since she always tracks on to me on a 100% accuracy. The fight looks really great and me saying I'm impressed and amazed is such and understatement but her tracking seemed so... off ? Perhaps there's something in her fight that I do not know of.

@@PEEK-A-BOO101 do you run under or behind her so she misses?

@@PEEK-A-BOO101 I've seen other players dodge it the same way that this person did it. It seems that the attack tracks the direction you're moving and locks on to a spot slightly in front of where you're walking, which is probably why you felt like it always tracked you really well. However, once the attack is locked to that position, you're free to turn around and move away, and it won't track you anymore. So as long as you know the timing on when it locks and then walk in the opposite direction, you can easily get out of its range. Check out the videos by Ongbal and Let Me Solo Her, they do it pretty much the same way. She readies the attack, they walk a bit in one direction, then change direction right before she starts her descent.

Doesn't the difficulty stop rising after the third new game+?

@@Stefantius NG +7 is the highest just like in every other Souls game. After that the difficulty will not increase

...isnt hes stanima higher? i dont see it go down much

He’s clearly cheating though

@@lewispooper3138lol how? Explain how

Primera vez en mi vida que veo un gringo diciendo "xd"

Part of me wanted at least quick step to mimic the BB doge lol imagine if we had that at low equip load

Bloodhound Step would've looked good on Gehrman though seeing as how he, lorewise, mastered the arcane to dodge F A S T without the use of the Hunter's Bone

@@missingone9185 but it is cheese for malenia furry attack so...

@@minhhieunguyen8096 True - which is why to bud in on my comment I added quick step, since its still easy to get hit in if ya spam lul

@@minhhieunguyen8096 I thought the cheese was using ice magic?

Same, gave me goosebumps. It fits so incredibly well its absolutely beautiful. I don't get how people can play these games without the music. So integral to the storytelling of the fight.

It doesn't fit, the tones of the OST and cutscene don't match.

@@trashagent9304 it absolutely does idk what you're talkin about lol

@@danielfuentes2999 Ghermans theme is nice of course but it really doesn’t wether you like it or not🤷‍♂️. It’s nowhere near the the grandeur and illustrious yet pained nature of Malenias theme. There is also timing isssues but of course it was just edited in and it wasn’t designed for the cutscene. Either way Malenia and her theme completely outclasses him and his.

@@arryn786 so you're saying it doesn't fit because you like hers better 🤨.

You’re literally the only one that’s noticed 😆

Bloodborne players

That’s good to hear! Thank you

I kinda do half and half. I run for my life for the first part, then dodge into it for the second, then dodge around her for the third to mess with the tracking.

@@zsDUGGZ same, she just ALWAYS activates it when I'm about to attack her, so running isn't an option. Also you gotta turn off auto target or else it will fuck with your roll direction.

...why did you have to remind me of probably some of my favorite voice acting, yet saddest, in Fromsoft history...and why is your comment so well constructed... aaah cant be mad at ya

​@@Akario3 I reminded you because Gehrman to this day stands as my favorite FromSoftware character. The reason as to why my comment is so well constructed is because I have an extremely active imagination that loves to dream up exciting, melancholic, and beautiful imagery. But the real reason for all of this... Is because I just popped all my "Madman's Knowledge"! Gimme that sweet, sweet insight baybeeee!

Cringe

@@jimbob7572 Big Cringe

@@darylhearth14 glad you agree :))

Trick Weapons are more interesting, that's why there are much fewer.

Everything about bb has been about quality over quantity, now just imagine the quality of bb with the size of elden ring That's my dream for bb2.

Bro what? I love BB but some of yall really have rose tinted glasses when it comes to BB. Next you'll all be saying BB has a wider array of builds and the best PVP next. The changeable weapon arts alone can make the same weapon feel completely different in ER and I'm not even going to get into the unique weapons, the differences in spears, dual blades, Colossals, Katanas and dual wielding etc etc How can somebody go from using greatshields that have attacks themselves with a spear in the other hand so they can poke from behind it to using dual daggers with bloodhound step or even Reduvia weapon art to using bloodhound fang or dual Katanas with ROB or waterfowl and think "wow these all feel kinda the same". Like what were you people doing in ER? Using the claymore with no weapon art and a medium shield the entire game or what?

@@Beyondqqq haha burial blade go *swoosh*

@@Beyondqqq weapon arts are just special attacks though, and most weapons can share weapon arts only making like 40 weapons unique which still share basic movesets as opposed to bloodborne where every single weapon had 2 different movesets

Wow, thanks for the ongoing support. Haven’t played uncharted but heard it’s amazing

@@SmvR it is amazing. When it comes out on pc. Hope you get it. We would all love to see you play that.

The flowers littered on the ground they fight on also contributes to his theme fitting here

she is not a sekiro boss, cope

@@8304u Yes, she's an Elden Ring Boss. I can see that.

@@8304u such a sad life you live: gatekeeping things nobody cares about.

@@8304u Shit boss either way

@@theemeghost2323 bad at the game?

They didn’t.
