Beating Elden Ring with the WORST SPELLS

[@tototriceps]

CAT UPDATE: Turns out i have actually severe allergies to cats, that resulted in an asthma attack... So unfortunetly we wont be able too keep her, but we will never forger her. Praise Sam

[@kenblaire3043]

Noooooooooo

[@MaleniaGoddessofRot]

That's saddening...

[@smogipierogi]

Can we give you back and keep Sam as streamer ?

[@btheelke]

Man she wasn't here for long but we loved her also the streams were great

[@Elpolakoarab]

@@melonking281 bro hes not gonna take medice everyday just to keep a cat

[@knightgabriel1311]

I think one thing that really holds back these spells is the fact that there are only 2 in the category meaning they severely lack versatility.

[@tototriceps]

That and that they are too slow to cast.

[@CortoMalteaser]

I think the optimal setup for this run is actually using one staff of the guilty and casting with an albinauric staff while leveling arcane. That way you increase the bleed buildup way more

[@tototriceps]

That is actually a good variation to the build!

[@hayden.8057]

It’s ironic how your least favorite spell turns out it be one of the best challenge runs

[@tototriceps]

Funny how life functions sometimes haha

[@XArctracerX]

I feel a small change that could be made to slighty improve the sorceries is removing the fp cost and just making its resource fully hp at least that way you don't have to worry about maintaining both hp and fp

[@monhi64]

That feels so much better on paper but the more I think about it the more I notice that maybe it’s not better. The main reason it sucks is because it also takes HP are we sure we want it to take more? Plus we’re gonna have to refill it with flasks either way and we should have both types on us. With the last part being maybe FP is more “efficient” because I know a FP flask fully refills me while HP doesn’t. Not that I disagree with you, those are just some potential downsides I noticed

[@maxking1713]

There needs to be a briar sorcery that functions like a whip. Think carian slicer but it’s a whip that does less damage but with added bleed instead of a sword

[@tototriceps]

Good idea for the Convergence Mod!

[@MeneltirFalmaro]

I was a bit surprised by the choice to use Lusat's instead of dual Staves of the Guilty, but it does offer 13% more damage at 80 INT (vs 80 FTH). Which is a bit more than Lusat's usual ~10% advantage over Carian Regal. Going 20 INT (for Terra Magica) 80 FTH would give access to defensive buffs and heals on the way, but that didn't seem to be necessary. 👍

[@tototriceps]

Super Super optimal optimization takes more time and levels, i try to optimize it with the least amount of work Thats why Lusat is always superior.

[@dunefox8]

Well, I think this spell class got really good, with impenetrable thorns

[@tentedpopcorn2416]

I really wish fromsoft would buff a lot of the incantations and spells considered the worst, even if they are viable, like these sorceries, I wish they would make it actually versatile enough to use

[@monhi64]

In some ways that’s unwinnable because you kind of need “bad” versions to make the good ones feel powerful. I’m honestly not sure if a game where all spells were truly equally viable would be more boring. Maybe the freedom to switch would overrule the disappointment that nothing is stronger. Hard call

[@danser_theplayer01]

Aberrant sorcery needs int but it also needs faith. Meaning there is some cruel bloody outer god that favours the faithful and gives them the sorcery in exchange for sacrifice, and it especially fits cast out wizard criminals.

[@Giacon]

the aoe follow up attacks have increased damage the further you go, and they actually have different recovery frames, the second hit has the fastest recovery

[@tototriceps]

Interesting, didnt realize that!

[@zarvidnoom1547]

I love how you can kill Morgott without him ever moving with the worst two spells, Great video!

[@tototriceps]

Really wasnt expecting that to happen :)

[@lebioda2]

It was definitely a challange, especially with such slow Torrent

[@tototriceps]

So far no one noticed faster torrent haha

[@ivosnajper4582]

man i cant even describe how much i love your vids, never stop

[@tototriceps]

Thanks for the support man :D

[@mitthenub6050]

it upsets me most with these spells because I loved the look of Briars of Punishment the most.. they look awesome but they were absolutely the opposite unfortunately.

[@jwallwolf]

I'm fairly certain you could have done even more damage just pumping faith and using 2 staffs of the guilty They're absolutely filthy spells

[@tototriceps]

Maybe someone will test it out beside me and Bushy.

[@futuristicbus61]

I’m so sorry the kitten didn’t work out, I got a new kitten myself about a month ago and thankfully none of us have cat allergies. Also, amazing run! I really wish there were more of these sorceries, they have such a cool concept, they just suck ass.

[@foobar2027]

I would like to see this school of sorcery expanded in the DLC. I would like to see a throwing pot that explodes into thorns but also an ashes of war that makes the weapon (whip?) extend an extra long segment of pure thorn that after you hit the enemy it wraps around them and when the hit is over and you pull your weapon back, they inflict damage to the enemy that was wrapped. Also, a jar-cannon type of bolt ammunition that results in a cloud of thorn would be cool. Like the exploding bolts but these do thorn damage instead. Maybe an ash of war that applies to shields and make the shield completely covered by thorns, so if you attack with the shield you do thorn/bleed damage but even if you just defend with a shield the attacker still takes thorn/bleed damage. On top of this, please add two or three normal thorn sorceries. It would be really cool. With some more spells and options I think this could be a fun school to use. But I will not suffer myself through a playthrough with just these two, lets say, hard to use spells.

[@fryingpan2.0]

This man is seriously underrated he deserves more subs

[@tototriceps]

Thanks man :D

[@chronicle0665]

yoo all of your elden ring challenges was insane dude! 🔥🔥🔥 you should beat elden ring with only bare hands!

[@tototriceps]

"you should beat elden ring with only bare hands" No. Glad you enjoyed it tho :)

[@reaper_playz1163]

Next one should be frenzied flames build only

[@karellyngstad4012]

Its so cool how you can really beat elden ring with any weapon if you really want too

[@TheCeekon]

just going to note: Instead of lusats staff you could have gone albinaurics staff. Since it has arcane scaling it actually effects the bleed. yeah you loose out of a fair bit of raw per hit damage but that sweet bleed buildup is great for bosses that can be bled.

[@tototriceps]

Agreed, albinaurics staff is pretty good!

[@vaylantz_enjoyer]

Ask for this on the ice spell video and i am so happy you did it the thorns are my favorite spells in the whole game

[@tototriceps]

Takes quite a long time to make! Glad you stuck around :D

[@yaksher]

Bro wasn't even remembering to off-hand the staff of the guilty half the time lmao

[@tototriceps]

Happens alot actually haha

[@yaksher]

@@tototriceps Honestly didn't realize how much damage the thorn sorceries could do; I wonder if Briars of Punishment is actually good, hard for me to tell how this was performing compared to a similar optimized build for a spell like... I dunno, Night Comet or something

[@Silly_Illidan]

Elden ring players when boss doesn't follow a set attacl pattern: boss is bugged

looking more like toto biceps after that morgott kill. i love these spells. i thought these were so cool after my fight with Alberich so i became a sorcerer my first run. been waiting for the totothorn run, but yeah briars of punishment basically does no bleed

[@tototriceps]

At the beggining was a struggle, and then i made the build OP haha

[@RedYellowBird6889]

These spells actually look kinda fun to use shame they have such a high commitment barrier, but nonetheless, I might try them next time when I'm playing elden ring.

[@khalelibrahim]

u dont do bleed build up cuz u didnt level up arcane

[@tototriceps]

I honestly forgot about that during the run...

[@Celerott]

I was thinking the same thing. Just imagine how much more damage you would be causing...

[@backup7016]

I think it made the run more interesting not just destroying everything with bleed

[@Celerott]

@@backup7016 Perhaps, but it also made it unnecessarily difficult at times too. A happy medium would've been more reasonable.

[@boneman-calciumenjoyer8290]

I made the mistake of seeing the thumbnail and quickly assumed that this was just an Alberich cosplay run, which wouldn't be too hard, because his scythe is actually a solid weapon, but with just the thorn spells? Damn, this one must've been rough.

[@tototriceps]

Pretty rough, but in the end they proved to be quite good!

I usually go straight to the dragon and bleed its tail for some easy runes

[@tototriceps]

The Nights Cavalry has replaced that for me, its just faster!

[@BlueEyedAmerican]

True but you literally have a bleed build 😆

[@makiiavely]

i wonder if someone actually played like this in their first run of the game, like they picked some very specific spells that seemed cool to them and started applying every buff they came across and then they started doing some insane numbers and trivialising late game boss fights because you didn't really go that much out of your way to optimise your build lmao

[@tototriceps]

Probably not haha, you need some game knowledge to pull this off.

You took down the Tree Sentinel in under 10 seconds. Sure man, this spell sucks. TBH, this looks even more OP than IronBall. I think I must do a thorn playthrough right now. Insanity. Pure insanity.

@@tototriceps fair enough !

[@BiteSizedProduction]

They should have made the spells not have any requirement to cast while also not requiring mana to cast, but keeping the HP loss and bleed build. Make it scale with arcane for damage and voila, you have a unique type of niche spell if you're a tank build and have HP to lose, or want a long-range option for doing a melee-arcane build

[@BiteSizedProduction]

I'm basically describing pyromancies for a game that doesn't have attunement on it's core stats while adding a fun side-spell to use in a pinch when you're surrounded

[@slugger2994]

How are these the worst spells in the game lol their damage is insane. Wasting peoples times by clickbaiting...

[@DanielRios-e6w]

@slugger2994 because there are spells in the game that can deal more damage faster and without hurting the caster in return. So comparatively, a spell that is slow to cast, and hurts the caster while also leaving them open because of the range you have to be in to use it, makes these spells some of the worse in the game. Also, he's using and pretty much relying on several buffs to fight these bosses. Without them, he probably couldn't defeat them before he ran out of health.

[@Fapnyr]

Huh always assumed they were phys damage and not magic
