This Elden Ring Challenge Was Almost Too Easy

These days, Elden Ring feels a little too easy. Thankfully, there's still tons of challenges I can try, to make the game a little harder. Take for instance, the classic Soulsborne challenge: The Level 1 Run. Some know it at Rune Level 1, some know it as SL1, but regardless of what you know it as, the challenge is the same throughout all of the games. That being said, I've decided to throw a little twist in there. Introducing, the Elden Ring Convergence mod...

[@ahmadaccino]

the editing, the storytelling, the adventure. all top notch sir. those spicy doritos are well deserved

[@synical69]

21:03 the reason the frost pot didn't do it's job is because malenia gained a resistance against the status. There's a mechanic in elden ring where the more you proc a status effect on an enemy, the harder it is to proc again. This is why the frost pot method is not always reliable with malenia, because if she does waterfowl one too many times, she'll just ignore the status effect and shred you anyway.

[@God_of_Bacon]

exactly how it should be

[@canofraidantandroachspray8415]

I feel like removing the Serpent-Hunter Spear makes Rykard less fun. The whole point of the fight is the spectacle, and without the gimmick it takes too long to be fun. Why would they remove it?

[@ModeratelyHam]

My thoughts exactly. The fight is literally balanced around the serpent hunter! It would have been cooler if there was some quest line or boss you had to beat to get the serpent hunter so it felt cooler to find it and beat Rykard.

[@brandonedwards6119]

Same thing with removing Gideon and Soldier of Godrick instead of buffing them. Pisses me off.

[@IsaacClodfelter]

Yeah gimmick boss minus their gimmick is just brain dead design.

[@drumo2273]

​@@brandonedwards6119Gideon yes, I honestly think he should've been a proper boss rather than an NPC, though I get why. Soldier of Godrick though, I'm fine with being replaced. Jokes aside, he's a common enemy found in Limgrave and isn't built to be a boss no matter how buffed. Give him a new look and a few more moves, though, and we're golden.

[@dumpykong]

I think it would have been okay if they nerfed his air strike lol

[@EldenBeast127]

Sorry that I couldn't join Rykard and the others to roast you in chat. But anyways, well done! This must have been hell.

[@unusualsquid]

The amount of relief this man had on stream when he killed Malenia was amazing (also i did indeed beat Malenia with a Malekith build dumpy :>)

[@Ra1nRover]

Wake the fuck up samurai, we have a Dumpy Kong video to watch.

[@elimanatorzt3151]

Let’s goooo Dumpy uploaded

[@zauvimoo]

Dumpy unloaded :>

[@benjman123]

glad this is your new full time job now, so excited for your journey through KZbin, W DUMPY

[@futuristicbus61]

I know Sigur is basically just a reskin of those duelist gladiator guys, with one of their axes reskinned as a Great Stars, but damn is he cool. The ball and chain moveset on the great stars unironically looks better than it does on the duelist greataxe in my opinion.

[@bigl1204]

Time for ELDEMON the Convergence!

[@silent7759]

your my favorite Elden ring content creator, just your energy and the way you edit is really entertaining i cant wait for the next video!!!

[@DeezNuts-gd2hb]

29:00 I've beaten the game nine times now, and for anyone wondering tiche is by far the best summon for Radagon/Elden beast. There's no debate.

[@SilencedGrimm]

Hey, I've been getting into your content and I'm a big fan and you seems so down to Earth. Great work and keep it up! You're an inspiration to me

[@DragonRider6566]

normally i dont watch videos that ive watched the vods for but because its dumpy ill do it

[@SimonLawler]

great video and i cant wait for the dlc playthrough when the dlc comes out

[@Zeptoid]

I literally just subscribed today, glad to get more content

[@truster794]

[@ashenphoenix6869]

I beat Melenia with Black knife Teche as well she dodges a ton so it doesn't heal Mel and her death blade it also caps the max hp. Honestly perfect for Mel

[@evanmurphy118]

You should try and do an eldemon convergence run

[@cheeseslap6866]

Babe, wake up, Dumpy just upload a new video.

[@thesavagegummybear7341]

The sound you use for the pee break and dog pee break are the same insinuating you’ve taught your dog to use a standard toilet 🚽, impressive.

[@HAVIN_aBLAST]

i think i have some Morgott PTSD ever since i tried to beat him at SL 20 on my first playthrough just to get to mountaintops early. The moment i heard you say they made Morgott more aggressive i almost had a panic attack.

[@warframelichyt]

21:03 To answer your confusion, Malenia's Frost resistance significantly increases the more she is inflicted by it. that or the mod says no to 🧀ing Malenia

[@Thrustpawn9]

It's possible they increased it, but proc increasing is in the base game.

[@Rykardreal]

16:35 HEY ITS ME! All jokes aside gg bro, I still win bc u had to cheese in a cringe way but all love over here ❤❤ Edit: 18:15 I see u left out the attempt where your “foolproof” plan failed lmao

[@jajabang807]

I love how you used old n64 donkey Kong music, so very nostalgic and heartwarming

[@arcticpenguin.]

I love the kathy reference from the chatgpt video

[@dezmas9332]

Rykard's Rancour(AC-130) can be dodged by just running, unless the convergence changed it from the original, you do have to be away from Rykard though since he will try and hit you more if you are close

[@AmphyTho]

swag, just checked if you posted yesterday

[@herobrinehunter18]

I hate to tell you this, but if you were playing on the most recent Patch, the serpent hunter was re-added. You just wouldn't know that if you were only reading the 1.0 release notes

[@twixmaestr7605]

I can’t believe they made Morgott MORE aggressive, like, he already spams more attacks than Rennala

[@Christmas_Johan]

Am I really about to watch a video of me getting my ass kicked by some challenge runner again? Yea

[@fiferbates2405]

You can get the serpent slayer spear thing by getting killed by the abductor in raya Lucaria and then killing the duo

[@dscalis1]

glad to see you were hydrated throughout the whole run! 💧

[@ashreh]

NEW DUMPY VID LEZGOOOO

[@twistedturnip8487]

A good and underrated summon to maybe use for Melania in the future is redmane knight olga, so long as you can keep Malenia's aggro and keep her away from the melee swap range Olga will hang back and pepper Melania with almost perfectly accurate gravity great arrows that knock Melania on her ass every time they connect and with her keeping her distance as a ranged summon Melania can't reliably heal from her as she can off your mistakes.

[@jynsay1220]

idk why but im addicted to your vids lol

i was in the stream . it was a good time

[@MAYCHAOSTAKETHEWORLD0]

17:00 i thought he was going to say “Majestic” For some bloodborne reasons😅

[@AgentXA564]

Here's a challenge for you: Can you complete Elden Ring while dating Malenia. Finding out how to even do that in the first place, even with mods, would probably be more difficult than the actual challenge.

[@dysfunctionaldragonborn]

Can we talk about how Rennala looks so much better without the hat it’s so stupid looking in the base game

[@evqn5237]

Finally a new uloaod!!!!

[@SintiSnake]

Right before he died to Morgott I’m pretty sure he did a ten hit combo that’s so insane and stupid

[@thefricke05]

I’m pretty sure in game, like no mods nothing, morgott can do like a 20 hit combo occasionally

[@fryingpan2.0]

Hello dumpy and paper frog

[@RauchPotato]

"wont waste your time with another montage" hahah you're not wrong but I bet editing that montage would've taken you a bunch more time. I respect that. also keep up that good shit

[@elimanatorzt3151]

At 21:04 I was watching that on stream and it was so irritating watching the stun not work and you getting so close to winning and get ended by that waterfoul

[@kremvh5297]

He would've won that one too

[@AveryOddbird]

Good video.

[@samthepigman4069]

The only thing that makes rl1 hard is that late game bosses one shot you and you have a limited equip load. If you can meet the requirements for a weapon, you can make an op build around it.

[@dezmas9332]

the boss that replaces the duo likely has some kind of immunity window after being riposted, bosses seem to usually lose that, but since it's an upscaled normal enemy they likely forgot to remove the riposte immunity window to allow for more hits after a riposte
