*under an hour* as he proceeds to speed everything up so fast that it takes me 4 :D Love this guide! Learned a lot and thank you for helping me get back into the swing of things!

[@jackmg]

True

[@zsannosaurusrex8095]

After 6 hours I’m at the half of the video. But I am not rushing (: I enjoy it it very much much and can’t wait to fight all the bosses and be mad if they kill me

[@squiggle1020]

Yes. I have like 8 hrs following this guide

[@metaljazz]

Agreed - this vid is a huge help - I’m 3 hours in and about 20 mins remaining still lol

[@McWarlord]

Couple things for the guide. 1) when you were in the weeping peninsula, you should have killed the beetle to get the poison mist spell. 2) use the wind tunnel to jump up into lenne's rise and get the memory stone. 3) get the village of albinauric's site of grace and medallion half when getting the trina's lillies since you are right there. 4) after getting somber smithing stone 6 in volcano manor, jump down and up the ladder. go to the end and jump onto the adjoining ledge. avoid the lizard dude and run into the building and get the site of grace. 5) either time you go to fort Haight, get the dectus medallion. 6) grab staff of loss after lighting first fire. Super good for night comet builds Your path to get into volcano manor to get the somber smithing stone 7, I never took. I always dodge rolled through the lava. Didn't even know that path existed. Great info. My post isn't to criticize but just to add some helpful info of things to do while you are already at certain places. Simply because for the most part you are already there and it will be helpful later or because you won't be coming back there and If you look up an item and find out you could have already gotten it, it's kinda frustrating.

[@cryptoimmortal6910]

This was by far the best walk-through for a build I have found. Very detailed and easy to follow. Definitely some spots that felt like they took ages(final battle) but in the end very satisfying. Will definitely be sharing this with my friends on ER. THANKS!!!!

[@zirrush]

Really appreciate the guide brother. You explain it in full detail very well within an hour : ) New to elden, and with limited gaming hours after work this guide has been a great start to get my foot in the door and in the right direction, much appreciated. Chiseled away over a couple nights of post work decompression and straight nuclear as I gain a feel for Elden's mechanics. Suggestion/request (please do not take this as a complaint or nagging, way too many people take guides for granted and i'm not one that does) but maybe pause an extra second or two on the map pins... find myself double/triple/quadrupling back to pause the vid and place those pins on some of the segments. Very thankful of the help you've provided and just constructive criticism for you there is all : ) Keep on and game strong!

[@tlyon5196]

Best guide I've seen on this. Didn't get lost, confused or frustrated once. Hell of a job.

[@aboshahrazad9790]

Man, thank you The amount of effort put into this video is incredible, memorizing the items' locations, Showing us the map of every place and everything, and giving us advice. Thank you, definitely worth subscribing

[@PaiThaiTeam]

Oh my gosh.. I want you to know I bought the game because of your guide, and followed it to a tee up to the Godskin fight. I really struggled but kept at it and kept at it but kept dying. I slowly started running out of sleep pots. I was down to my last two pots, and managed to kill him. Such an exhilarating moment, but I want you to know that I was fully prepared to start a new character and run through the whole thing again to get more lily’s which I think is a testament to your guide. For anyone else struggling with the fight, what I did was enter right away and move to the right and use Golden vow (with the dagger) and my magick flask (like the guide suggests). However I did not cast my jellyfish, but stood behind the pillar and waited for him to come to me. Once he was almost to me, I either dodged or sprinted to the opposite end of the arena depending on what attack he used. Once I got to the altar area, I then cast my jellyfish in the middle of the carpet and ran behind a pillar on the left side. I found it is a lot easier to hit him down by the altar since you don’t have to worry about your comet hitting benches or candles, it’s a much more open area. I waited for the squid to take aggro and then cast one comet. I then used my FP flask to get to full, and then ran to the middle of the arena on the carpet so I was facing his back, and he was facing my squid (and the altar). I hit him with three comets, but it’s tricky because you don’t want to pull aggro after the second comet or else he will charge you. You want to hit him in the middle of his AOE slam which slows him down so you can get off the third comet. You also need to be close enough to be within range to hit him with a sleeping pot. After sleeping him, I would hit him with two fully charged comets (in the guide you said 3 but he always woke up after 2, I’m not sure if that’s because the jellyfish was also adding damage) and then tried to back off enough to hit him with a third and then sleep pot again. You really need to be able to chain sleep pots a lot quicker then I realized. What brings the run to an end immediately is if he does his rolling attack, so if he starts that just abandon the run and run it back. Thank you again for such an awesome guide. I plan on finishing up now and then starting back at the beginning to run through quests. I really appreciate your time and energy!

[@MrSmithwayne]

this start completely worked for me, I also was down to like 10 lilies left and I was getting very frustrated. What was killing me was his rolls, I finally got him on a time when he decided to throw his spells instead and hit him with 3 pots, the last one finally got him with 3 full powered up staff bolts. If you wait to replenish your manna or wait to send a pot at him often times he gets to close and your facing a rapier in your face which totally throws off your play and you have to dodge and roll. Buff at the right side after the entrance, let him come to you, run left then along the pillars, get to the altar, cast your summon, wait for him to come and dodge if he throws spells, run right then get behind him as he engages the summon, use your manna pot before you start casting because you only have one charge left after your buffs. Dodge any spells and rinse and repeat. If he does a that roll just let him kill you and start over. Its not worth trying to dodge that.

[@Binoludara23]

If I use the sleeping pots during the battle and then die, will the sleeping pots be in my inventory upon revival to try again?

[@PaiThaiTeam]

@@Binoludara23 Nope which means you’re limited to the 20ish or so that you’re able to craft with the lily’s you picked up during the rest of the run

[@user-re8ep4zl7i]

FromSoft games are notoriously difficult. But that sense of exhilaration you describe is what makes them some of the best games ever made. I hope you are still enjoying Elden Ring. Once you are done with it, I highly recommend Dark Souls 1. Dark Souls 1 is an absolute Masterpiece.

[@jackmg]

How do you use the golden armament? I am on ps5 and nothing I do can trigger it

[@DESHPLEASE]

that guy at the beginning gave me such a hard time - this is gonna be epic! can't wait to dive into this build!

[@fezza2132]

Out of interest, could you make a video on what this build looks like in endgame. Not necessarily a walkthrough but a final build. What stats to aim for, additional trinket upgrades and gear etc.

[@Fairburne69]

I was just thinking the same thing about his Samurai video that he did. I love his videos and all the effort he puts in. It's great for someone like me who isn't very good at these games but enjoys playing them.

[@user-re8ep4zl7i]

At the 20 minute mark, where you kill the Night's Rider, there is a Rise there with a really easy to grab memory stone. Not sure why you ran right past it. Another thing I would suggest is grabbing Night Comet and the Staff of Loss while in Sellia. The spell Night Comet is behind the barrier that you opened when you lit the three flames. So you already did the work to get it, I would 100% grab it. And you literally walked past the Staff of Loss without picking it up. Why grab these two items? Because Night Comet is basically Comet but it is invisible... which means enemy AI won't dodge it. Night Comet is one of the most powerful spells in Elden Ring PVE. You can miss with Comet, as bosses and enemies will dodge it (resulting in DPS and mana loss). They won't dodge Night Comet, though. And why grab the Staff of Loss? Because it boosts the damage of Night Sorceries by 30%... which is huge. And you don't even have to upgrade the Staff of Loss. Just have it in your off hand while you cast with your main staff. Just having the Staff of Loss in your off hand will give you 30% more damage with Night Comet, a spell that pretty much never misses. After doing all this, the next step would be to get a Moonveil Katana. Once you pull that off, the game is super easy mode. And you can get the Moonveil to +4 pretty easy by buying the stones from the Smith in the Lakes.

[@runeflinger]

Thanks for the fantastic video! ❤ Had taken my original character into NG+ but then never went far in the second playthrough… so wanted to start a new character and work up to the DLC. Your guide was brilliant to get up to speed. And now with some additional travels, a bit of “help” from creepy Varre, and some farming near good old Mohg, am finally in the Land of Shadow 🎉

[@civilian4live]

I was gonna ask if you could do exactly this but figured there wasnt enough time before dlc drops. You did it anyways, thank you!

[@CoFloCipher]

This is so incredibly well done. You have a talent for keeping up a good pace, not rambling, and being extremely thorough. All while remaining entertaining. Quickest sub ever! 👏

[@LuckyGhost]

thanks so much!

[@SafetyFooT]

One very common beginner mistake I’d love to see a KZbinr cover for all the new players coming in with the DLC: stop putting 1000 different things on the D pad with your flasks. Lol I literally put health and mana flasks down there. That’s it. You can put your physic in your pouch and access it by holding triangle. This will save you much-needed seconds to pop off an opportunistic heal during a Boss fight, instead of having to finger blast the D pad 1000 times to cycle to the right flask while a spastic boss is unloading on you with infinite stamina.

[@mad636man]

I have health and mana on the hold triangle pouch. I never have to scroll. I do have to hold a button but it seems the smoothest most efficient way for my brain to do it.

[@mikewright8255]

Hold down and it goes straight to health flask

[@gallagher2259]

[@dezyrabletwink]

Thank you so much for this I was trying to follow a scythe build but they weren't in depth (I'm a new player) and they skipped over major elements like gear imbuing and what weapon to level along with being hard to follow as a newer player. Instant subscribe for me, we appreciate your hard work!

[@Shyeitza]

Returning to elden ring after not playing much since the release. I’m trying to follow this guide, but the way you have it sped up so much makes it hard to follow. Especially for people who don’t know how to get around the map. Have to watch this at 50% playback speed sometimes

[@mortenottosen4938]

it's easy. you just play and stop, play and stop the video. not that hard!

[@Fairburne69]

I'm doing his video with the Samurai. There are times where its hard to follow but generally it's fantastic. I'm about halfway through that video in 4 hours. Lots of 50% playback speed rewinding and playing again. Overall thought its great and I can't wait to finish it. I will probably try this build when I am done with that one. It will be easier as many of the locations you go to are the same.

[@mortenottosen4938]

@@Fairburne69 took me about 6 hours to go through it!

[@Fairburne69]

[@gusjackson1241]

Never played the game and I have no issue with his direction, only wish he would have left the map up for 3 seconds lo her to make pausing to set markers easier. Great guide, first play through setting myself up for success, as a first timer it has taken me 4 hours and I'm about to light the fires at the academy. So his video is a one hour guide but for first time players I'd say closer to a 4-6 hour.

[@jffrancisco_]

thank you so much for the guide! This was actualy fun :D It also teach us the importance on picking our fights and that you don't have to fight everything ....

[@pedroaugusto1168]

just watched this video to help a beginner friend with his astrologer build! thanks for the easy step by step! sure that this will help him a lot!

[@PaiThaiTeam]

Thank you for the time and energy you put into this

[@gunm808]

RE: the mt gelnir/volcano smithing stone...took me multiple tries to get all the jumps right. then at the very end i found out you can just run around the building where the stone is located and there's an incline you can run up and just get there directly--i didn't need to do any of that parkour stuff at all. 😭 for the minor erdtree, if you want to one-shot the minions, best to be INT 51 or better if you can. you may need to run around to avoid the tree's missile attacks. the rot erdree fight went really easy for you because for whatever reason, he retreated and didn't attack--every single attempt, the tree was 100% aggressive. Could not land any hits because I was too busy running away. The cast time is generally too long without a summon to buffer you.

[@christopherpancoast702]

Astrologer is actually the next build I wanted to make. Thanks again Lucky! Much love from Vegas! PAN

[@gothmog2441]

This must have taken hours and hours of work - condensed into such a detailed walkthrough. I'm halfway through and in awe. Learning loads.

[@johng394]

Soooo excited to try this once I beat the game with the samurai bleed build from your other video. At the academy now and haven’t encountered a single thing in the game that has given me any resistance so far. These and your eso builds are total lifesavers for someone like me that is terrible at games 😂

[@anthonythorp4444]

Awesome video! Thank you it helped a lot

[@jameslowmack8140]

So I bought the game two years ago and only played it once for 20 minutes and just kept dying, then stopped playing it. I saw your video and gave it another try. Thank you so much for the guide. I am really enjoying the game and can’t wait to beat the game so I can start the DLC.

[@metaljazz]

Appreciate it dude - tremendous guide all the way. Thx for putting in the time & posting this vid - I got through it all, leveled & (on a sep note) even got to the bird rune farm in Mohgwyn Palace… peace

I forgot how good your guides are from my eso days… ty

[@harryshacks5482]

Can we have a follow up video, on how to make the build better?

[@dondurham5264]

When you pick up Golden Vow, if you swing around those ruins and go SW, there is a GREAT place to farm Smoldering Butterflies. I suggest placing a marker there so you can easily return. I have farmed over 75 so I won't need to return soon. It's nice to know it's there. Now If I can find a good spot to pick up mushrooms for Fire Pots.

[@agentgopher6955]

In the guide he stops at one of the graces (can’t remember which one) and he says you can just rest continuously and the mushroom will keep reappearing

[@MrSmithwayne]

thank you so much for this vid, I could not do this with the Samurai, the Godskin just destroyed me to easily but this build worked and I just wanted to let you know.

iv seen a few astrologer build vids and quite a few times i was gonna comment on being able to pick up the meteorite staff from behind lol and u are the only one so far to do that o7 edit 1: an easier way to kill that knight cavalry is go to far end of the bridge, make sure he follows u, then go up the tree thats right beside it, its usually dead within 10s and a lot less risky than jumping over the side onto that small ledge, also when u go back to the grace u can use the torrent to either jump into the lower balcony or aim towards the grace and u can jump onto the top landing with a double jump at the apex where the inner lift takes u to get another memory stone, iv no idea how to do this rise properly as there isnt a book outside to read

Great video. I'll be raising a new mage with this for sure, but...Edit: I should have watched the entire video before commenting. I still don't understand taking the risk to kill Cavalries though when you can cheese the dragon multiple times with 0 risk.

[@LuckyGhost]

I try to avoid exploits like that, but I don't judge anyone that enjoys them!

“Now the easy part” proceeds to run through a lava pit with a boss at the end that can pierce through walls 😂

35:49 just commenting a time stamp to come back later

[@matheusmourao9420]

Pt 2 vídeo!!! Niceeee

[@mortenottosen4938]

at the timestamp 4:40 you say to run north.. but you run South lol ^^

[@kailinglasgow2334]

The dark Knight on the bridge didn't leap over. Been trying for over 30 min now.

[@raoulduke1604]

Great guide, very helpful. Just wondering why you need to equip the dagger before the final fight? How does that help? 👍

[@tbhidk420]

It should have your ash of war on it, use that to buff urself

[@abdulearrington6572]

Pause play pause play that’s me lol very helpful though

[@zsannosaurusrex8095]

yes me too haha. and on 0,5 speed

[@ScottDRoyer24]

I'm having an issue with putrid avatar in caelid. It seems I'm just doing no damage but I've followed the guide exactly. Also I didn't get any runes from the before.

[@mamagne800]

No way you can do all this within an hour.

[@Vbanga21]

At rune farm #2 the dragon is missing? I cannot find him he is not there.. i have not killed him before as this is my first playthrough, any ideas? Thanks for this awsome guide!

[@otoanskye]

Longest hour of my life that's for sure.

[@AMIGOOstreams]

You are the best man

[@andrewrackliff8223]

Struggling with the Godskin. The hard part for me ironically is starting over. I can't seem to jump the lava without taking damage. So I end up wasting both health flasks lmao

[@agentgopher6955]

Where you jump down to get taken by that machine thing that gets you to volcano manor, dodge one of his attacks and if you run behind him you can get a talisman called “long tail cat talisman” and it helps with taken less damage from heights. Once I picked that up I only had to use the one flask to heal up like in the guide!

[@khalilurtv]

After 5 hours i finally defeated Fatty roll. Thanks for the guide!!!

[@LuckyGhost]

Nice work man!

[@eternalfxde7655]

At 37:14 I've exhausted all of their dialogue options and then rested at the table of lost grace but the girl NPC won't change her spawn, what should I do?

[@Ciferos]

Nice guide overall, a few things, though: 1.) At the very beginning I should it should be mentioned to be able to get runeson Lennes Rise, when dodging the metal ball, each doge will net 1952 runes, so might be handy to buy some items at the beginning or get some much needed early level ups. 2.) The Knight Cavalier is very hard to beat, I actually was able to lure him off the cliffs much better, on the side of the bridge where you start off and lure him to the cliffs on the right, its fiddly but works. 3.) The putrid tree avatar is very difficult, even with your tactic, I found to often "exit" the fight and use the wind tunnel to jump up in the air "resets" the enemy to its location, so you can hit it 1-2 times and exit the fight, much easier. 4.) Also the white dragon: if done right, you can farm him several times! Make a backup save of your save file, before you try. Clobber the white dragon, as described, when he is very low, hop onto your horse and keep hitting the dragon. when the dragon dies its tail flaps or you can see that the hit bar disappears, immediately run to the grace and rest. You get all the runes, but the dragon is back alive in the background ! 5.) Also, when in Raya Lucaria, after the bridge, drop down (Pillar with sat down undead") and you can find the Carian Knight armor, looks nice and very good beginner armor. You will still retain medium equipment load.

[@TFTrickster]

LuckyGhost any chance you will be coming out with any other new player op builds for different classes

[@LuckyGhost]

any particular requests?

[@TFTrickster]

@@LuckyGhost I just started a bandit I like the twin blades but I thought twin blades were nerfed. However, your guides are so easy to follow I would love a bandit build.

[@charlesduke9750]

All good and well, excellent guide, however I feel like mental indigestion about minute 19:00 . I mean, it is good to KNOW all these things and I'm actually following you step by step with a new character, however, shouldn't we also play a little? By the time I pointed out, the character is strong enough to tackle for example all of Limgrave, dungeons and the like before going on. Otherwise, if we come back to do Limgrave after going through all your guide it is going to be boring. What I mean, your guide could include intermissions where it is recommended at this point you should do this and that area, you are now strong enough to take on Mirgit and Godrick, etc. Also to level up a little?

[@Phanbot01]

He's like Major Slack Videos but at the speed of a bullet train, need to pause and rerun some parts to keep up with him.

[@samanph44]

Would you recommend adding more spells to the build
