I'm alive guys, I've simply been very busy with life lately (in a good way!). Now that I'm free again, what's better to celebrate than some good old unga bunga?
The stance-breaking (or posture, poise, stagger etc) system is one of Elden Ring's strongest mechanics, but it's often underused or associated exclusively with heavier weapons like colossals... but smaller weapons can be just as efficient to get those juicy staggers, and some like the club are even better at landing stance-breaks left and right! So let's put this mighty weapon to the test.
Build: Strength/endurance (exact stats spread shown after each major fight)
Weapon: Heavy Club + Cragblade
Support gear: Battle Axe [Golden Vow]
Talismans: Radagon's Soreseal, Ritual Sword Talisman, Green turtle talisman, Axe talisman, Viridian Amber Medallion +2 (once reaching Haligtree)
Bonus items: Strength-knot tear (+10 strength), Spiked crystal tear (increased charged attacks damage), Hero/Ronin armor set (don't ask me where I got the second one).
Note: This video has been on hold for a while, as such the footage was recorded on Elden Ring patch 1.09 and doesn't benefit from the poise breaks and critical hits buffs from patch 1.10. So if you're trying this build yourself, this means you'll do even more damage on critical attacks (backstabs/ripostes) than I did in this run!

Well, I stand corrected. Looks like it was possible after all :)
Another redo of the previous meme kills, only a day after the latest one. Having done previously a Maliketh kill on 150% and 175% speed using Cheat Engine, this is now 200% ingame speed with the double speed limit breached. As usual, still on RL1 NG+7 and no hits taken.
Phase 1 was a nightmare at this speed, and the projectiles attacks in phase 2 very difficult to deal with too. This specific attempt ended up not giving me any opportunities to use Blasphemous Claw parries to deal massive damage to p2, making it longer with much more attacks to dodge and react to, so Im very glad this ended up being the victorious attempt !
Build : Rune Level 1
Keen Bandits curved sword x2
Radagons Soreseal, Red feathered branchsword, Millicents prosthesis, Green turtle talisman
Bonus items : Blasphemous Claw for parries, Bloodboil aromatic, +10 dexterity/increased successive attacks tears in physics flask.

So turns out Power within makes the p2 transition completely consistent thanks to the extra damage and stamina regen it grants, making you have enough stamina for the first post-clone attack of pontiff and giving you entire control over the transition. Why get a headache with RNG grinding the transition when you can simply do that I wonder
Also what the fuck was that backswing hitbox at 0:25, I got it checked in hitbox viewer and its actually clean, that still looks ridiculous though")

When kings rise against have it writ on their grave, the old gods were felled by a mortal unnamed - Aviators , We Rise
A compilation of speedkills of all main Elden Ring bosses done at Rune Level 1 (RL1) in NG+7 (Max New Game cycle) and without taking hits. The goal is to down every boss as fast as possible solo, without glitches/extreme cheese/AI breaks etc and melee only (with the strict exception of freezing pots on Malenia to interrupt her Scarlet Aeonia incantation). Loading times during cutscenes arent counted since they are hardware dependent and would not be fair to everyone as a friend of mine pointed out.
In this context, All main bosses refer to all bosses giving a Remembrance, achievements and/or being required to progress into the main storyline (like Gideon Ofnir). The only exception being repeat bosses that are weaker version of later bosses since they are thereby pointless to include (for example Godskin Noble and Ancestor Spirit are excluded since I already fight Godskin Duo and Regal Ancestor Spirit later on in the video). Enjoy !
Build and weapons used for most of the fights :
Rune Level 1
Bleed Bandits curved sword [Seppuku] x2
Cold Scavengers curved sword [Chilling Mist]
Fire/Heavy Greatsword [Lions Claw or Giant Hunt]
Keen Lordsworns straight sword [Keen Ash of War] x2
Bleed Cleanrot Knights sword [Seppuku] x2
Talismans : Radagon Soreseal, Red feathered branchsword, Lord of Bloods exultation, Viridian Medallion +2, Kindred of Rot talisman, Turtle talisman, Millicents Prosthesis, Rotten Winged sword insignia, etc.
Buffs used : Bloodboil aromatic, Turtle neck, Golden Vow/Commanders Standard
Bonus items : +10 dexterity/+10 strength/increased damage on successive attacks physics potion, White mask, Mushroom crown/Kindred of rot talisman for poison buffs swaps, and fashion armor.

![HK - Absolute Inferno King Grimm [Radiant] [Nail only]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/b2nf0nsY9zc/mqdefault.jpg "HK - Absolute Inferno King Grimm [Radiant] [Nail only]
Beating the Absolute Inferno King Grimm modded boss by Nickc01, a much more powerful and complex version of NKG on hard settings, on Radiant difficulty and with nail only (no spells, etc).
This is an amazing fight, very impressive for a modded boss. There can be some weird RNG at times with that version of pufferfish and a couple other things, but theyre too rare to matter and besides that every attack feels very fair and well designed for an enjoyable fight.
That was technically the third time I killed the boss due to a mistake leading to trading hits on the first one and a lucky RNG with fire bats spam on the second that made the victory not satisfying and lead me to redo it again. This one Im content with !
Charms setup (as shown at the end of video) : Unbreakable Strength, Quick Slash, Steady Body, Sprintmaster, Dashmaster, Mark of Pride.")

A solo, melee only kill at Rune Level 1 (RL1) on NG+7 (Max New Game Cycle) of Malenia, Blade of Miquella / Goddess of Rot, without auxiliary/status effects (bleed/frost), parrying, etc. A redo from the one I did a few months ago using some bloodboil aromatics, this time with no buffs (excluding Godricks great rune which is needed to wield the weapon). Also done without taking hits.
This is a revisited kill with the intent to showcase more aggressive gameplay with a greatsword for comfort instead of the clunky commanders standard. I also wanted to get a few waterfowl dodges in there as theyre cool to see, regardless of the move itself being questionable design at least its consistent. Good rematch I would say.
Build : Rune Level 1
Alabaster Lords sword +10
Radagons Soreseal, Red feathered talisman, Stargazer heirloom, Starscourge heirloom
Bonus items : Godricks great rune, Vykes leggings for sick light roll fashion
