I love the weapon type only run. More casual, just Gino having fun with the game. While of course I can appreciate the tension of a no-hit even as a KZbin video, these are my favorite. Can't wait for the CGS only video, I just think they're neat.

[@brendolbreadwar2671]

very much agreed. This is exactly what i do when i do new playthroughs. from my experience the coolest combo is the claws with frost stomp. Max upgrade gives you 100 frost build up and 65 bleed build up. PER CLAW. If you have mimic tear, thats 4 claws attacking at once, extremely overpowered and CHUNKS any boss. Having frost on your weapon also allows you to attack all the stone creatures.

[@bruucunha]

18:10 - About horseback fighting: the twinblade and flails moveset on Torrent are SUPER fun. I always use Torrent + flail when fighting dragons for more stagger dmg; two full charged R2 from Nightrider Flail was enough to stance break Adula and I finished the fight without breaking a sweat. Never tried against Radhan or Fire Giant, though. It might work as well

I’ve literally been waiting till you did this run

[@compencemusic]

These 'specific weapon class only' runs inspired me to do a bunch of casual playthroughs with similar self imposed limitations and eleonora's poleblade has been my favorite weapon in the game ever since running twinblades only

[@KimJongPhil]

Its been my fav since i found out about it. That ash is SO CLEAN! Its not hyper busted so it doesnt get the rob/moonveil treatment but it also isnt weak so u can totally beat ng+ with it and full clear everything twice. Sadly tho, it does drop off after that to an unusable level but most ppl dont push ng+s like that

[@compencemusic]

@@KimJongPhil I've been to ng+7 but usually just prefer speedrunning or starting fresh after 1 so makes sense fsfs

[@jonmann4980]

My friend suggested them to me and I’ve been enjoying them! I just finished an axe/ great axe only build and it was fun adapting to a new challenge! I unfortunately didn’t realize the flaming strike ash of war existed until after I beat radahn tho 😅

8 new weapon CLASSES?! WTF, that's a little excessive right? I'm all for it, hopefully they fill out weapons for those classes and it isn't just 1 or 2 weapons.

[@KimJongPhil]

I highly doubt theyll give us fleshed out classes without adding more to the ojes that exist and are already lacking. But i do feel like filling those AND full new classes is an option... but that may be asking alot.

[@alexmark6580]

@@KimJongPhil I’m hoping for more whips and flails, and spears For sure they’ll introduce an unarmed fist class, and maybe a new seal/weapon that boosts miquella type incantations.

Every Gino vid puts a smile on my face the whole time.

[@hammhawk4404]

I would love to see you do a flowing curve sword run. I feel that the unique R2 attacks can make a unique build.

[@RiderZer0]

Watching to see his take on the build. I did this last year with twin blades but I ran the blood one and the godskin peeler. Was great for a while. Absolutely fell off a cliff it felt later. Greatswords, hammers, and maces just feel much more consistent to me.

Can i olay this build when i am New to the game? Is there a written guide or can someone explain for me whitch class or where i can find These items? Or how can i get Perm bleed on them?

[@waynecribb6784]

Nice run. Entertaining to watch. I might have called it the 'Blender Build'.

[@lazyorsleepy815]

Idea for a run: Homebody You can only use items that are, or have been, in the roundtable hold: except key items like quest items, wet blades or crystal tears and materials for crafting items, but the recipes have to be acquired from the hold. The difficulty comes from limited selection on items, ashes of war, talismans, buffs. Weapon upgrades are mostly limited to their bell bearings and an optional challenge is also not picking up outside golden seeds or sacred tears but i chose not to do that. I really enjoy your videos and i just thought id post this on the chance you'd see this. Cheers

[@lazyorsleepy815]

Also includes only soft runes and no hard rune pick ups but that might make it unenjoyable so idk its up to you.

[@spongbobsquarepants3922]

Sounds painful. The weapon you start with is cipher path, which you cannot wield properly. So then you have to farm runes to use it by killing the ball over and over again.

[@lazyorsleepy815]

Since you can pick up key items including stone sword keys you can get the crossbow and rot arrows from hold to kill a boss then you have your pick of weapons from the twin maidens and you have incants as well so it's really not bad, the main thing is just resisting the urge to pick up items and not being able to use nearly all talismans and most optimal buffs and ashes

[@Knytewish]

Casually testing out different builds on malenia is insane

[@joelhodoborgas]

Love the content dude.

[@Haydz_Benz]

I used Eleanoras poleblade and a godskin sticther with seppukku and caused mojo to not have a second phase the damage ramped up so much. It’s fun to do once or twice, but I agree that trivializing the game every play through would get unfun.

[@nasirbrown5208]

Im loving the way that these weapon type only runs are going. I would love to see a run with only spears

[@cometinbound3581]

In the near future

[@humbletoxic]

One fun thing you could do with the twinblade is put the stormcaller ash on it and cast the black flame infusion. This is like a knock-off early game version of the black flame tornado

[@riplix20]

What black flame ash would you use to infuse it? The black whetblade is found during Rannis quest, in the eternal city, so there’s no way you’re getting this “ early game “ unless early game means after Radahn, Ranalla and Loretta

[@humbletoxic]

@@riplix20 the black flame blade incantation is in Stormveil, in the basement behind the imp statue with the rats in the main yard. Pretty early if you ask me. How many hours do you have in ER? I bet under 500 Also try it, now that you know. You’ll like it :)

You should do a medieval knight only or just knight only run. The build could be surprisingly fun when compared to the amount of setup that you do for these kinds of runs.

I also found out on my own twinblade run that the sprinting heavy attacks are pretty good too they hit pretty hard and they hit three or four times

[@JustJeevan]

1:37:19 you can delay the attack on the jump attack so all 8~ hits can actually land. you can just press l1 on the lower half of your jump as your fallign to land all 8 hits, so you arent missing 25%~ of your output

While they aren't as overlooked as whips or flails, a lot of the Elden Ring community is really sleeping on hammers. and so I think it would be awesome to see one of these single weapon class runs with only hammers.
