“I will do one thing ridiculous on daily basis till [x videogame thing happens]” could be slightly pat now—hell, there’s most likely a sociological paper to be written about players performing devotion for corporations as in the event that they have been implacable deities.
However JPNB on YouTube was a pioneer of the shape, preventing secret Elden Ring megaboss Malenia each week (initially on daily basis) over a span of months till we lastly bought that Shadow of the Erdtree announcement final February. He hung up his spurs after that, however now he is again as soon as extra to tango with the Blade of Miquella.
Throughout his unique run, JPNB began out making an attempt to struggle Malenia on daily basis till we bought information of an Elden Ring growth. Because the wait dragged on, that rapidly grew to become “each few days” earlier than he settled right into a sustainable tempo of preventing her as soon as every week with a brand new, enjoyable, themed construct every time. With 11 days to go till the discharge of Shadow of the Erdtree, JPNB dedicated to a Malenia dash as one final hurrah: beating her every day with out getting hit and utilizing a contemporary idiosyncratic construct every time.
I believe my favourite to date was his “Arcane Archer,” a riff on one in all my favourite outdated Dungeons & Dragons status courses with a classico Sherwood Forest archer match. Bows are abysmal in Elden Ring, so it is significantly spectacular to see somebody punking the sport’s hardest boss with archery.
Yesterday’s “Gelmir Gunner” was fairly good as effectively, and general I simply admire JPNB’s virtuosity with the totally different builds, swapping between three or 4 weapons and spells on every one in a means that is visually fascinating and speaks to a real mastery of Elden Ring’s fight.
We have got just a few extra days of no hit runs to go till Shadow of the Erdtree’s launch, so you may tune in to JPNB’s YouTube channel to see what tousled new builds he cooks up. FromSoftware’s Hidetaka Miyazaki has referred to as Shadow of the Erdtree’s new weapons as a serious promoting level of the DLC, so the builds can solely get extra wild from right here.
