I mean i guarantee that Radiance is probably their most practiced no hit boss so they probably had practiced to the point where being 1 hp doesnt even scare them anymore

Absolutely. But knowing fully well that the record is within grasp, nerves take over. It takes a genius to be calm and not play safe at that point.

[@legrandliseurtri7495]

@@Gh0steyy09 Even I am at a point where doing the last two phases of radiance without damage is kind of normal, and fury of the fallen allows the speedrunner to basically skip the fourth phase, which is usually the hardest.

@@Nimbus3690 more like he needed that extra time, there were no gaining for changing damage for saving time in the pure vessel and the Absrad

[@Nimbus3690]

@perdido jhonson what? If you kill the boss sooner, you gain time. He didn't get the extra health cuz taking damage would have taken him longer to get down to one health

[@TheDocmaligno]

@@Nimbus3690 lifeblood doesn't count for fury, as long as he has 1 white mask he have the extra damage. So if he doesn't need to trade damage for time, getting lifeblood would add more time.

[@Nimbus3690]

@perdido jhonson I know what you're saying but the game replenishes health at the start of radiance fight, so having full health and the lifeblood on top would have taken longer to get rid of, because the lifeblood masks get taken away first, and then the regular masks. That's why he didn't take the final lifeblood.

[@simonegentili4571]
