More Elden Ring content soon™
Under current ruleset on speedrun.com this is with Assists rather than No Assists, because Pull Rope is under the assists option despite being enabled by default. It also feels more like a core game mechanic rather than something like setting checkpoints, which defeats the purpose of a Getting Over It like game.
The other player is my brother who goes by Toast :). I'm red, he's green.

in this category you can place a flag as a checkpoint and warp back to it, reducing risk.

What I count as a buff is something that requires activation, and usually has a duration. So great rune, physick flask, golden vow, etc. This does not include talismans or armor.
I messed up a lot on the phase 2 punishes, causing him to not stagger and losing a lot of damage. Kill shouldve been 8-9 minutes but whatever. Ideally, you time the hits so it hits both the snake head and messmer, dealing double damage. Next best is to simply hit messmer, to contribute to poise breaks. It did not feel viable to go for double punishes with this weaponry (it barely does more damage than a jump l1 with this setup anyway)
I forgot to enable gamepad overlay, so no overlay whoops. Messmer The Impaler [Level 1, +0 weapon, 0 blessing, no aux/buffs*/etc]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UfKS_vZh7II/mqdefault.jpg)
![Is 2 handed straight sword secretly good? [Malenia RL1 +0 no talismans/buffs/%dmg/skills]
Compared to Jawbone Axe, we have: lower range, slower R2/CR2, lower damage. But... at least r2-r2 is pretty good?
Overall, not worth the effort, but I used some new strats so I uploaded anyway.
Inspired by @GameMUSA겜무사 to give this weapon a try. I was surprised their kill was faster than all power stanced straight sword kills I know of.

Also apologies to @hegelypuff4923 for beating this, I guess.
