Thanks for watching :) Imagine doing this run again when the DLC drops 💀 EXPLANATIONS OF THE RUN BELOW ⬇
Unfortunately its not actually possible to beat the game with all bosses without interacting with graces (praise best souls 2) without glitches. During the run there are 5 mandatory grace lights and 5 mandatory grace rests:
1+2) The first and second rests are required to get torrent/accept the accord from Melina and to get to Roundtable. This can be combined into one grace (but not one rest) if you do this at gatefront or any other grace that Melina can show up to give the accord. The reason why this is required is because in order to open the seal at Leyndell, you must have gone to roundtable first for some reason. This is also true for the portal to Leyndell at the Fia's Champions boss fight so you can't bypass it. Since we're required to get Torrent on the run, it makes the most sense to do it right away to save time during the running sections.
3) The third rest we do is for the Ranni questline. You have to speak to her doll at one of the graces in the upper Ainsel River area. Its needed because without this quest you can't access the Moonlight Altar which has 2 bosses.
4) The fourth rest is to get the Rold medallion after killing Morgott.
5) The fifth rest is to burn the Erdtree to get to Farum Azula.
Obviously all of these graces have to be lit to rest at them but the final extra grace that we have to light is in the Radahn arena. We don't have to rest at it but lighting it removes the trapped status while also activating the return to entrance portal so we can leave.
During the run I wanted to use the fewest number of grace interactions possible (without glitches). So this included fast travels, grace lights, memory of graces, etc. There are some dead-ends in the game where you can't get back to main areas to progress. In most of these situations just using the memory of grace is enough. The dead-ends are:
* First visit to Roundtable
* After killing Malenia
* Rykard Arena
* Mohgwyn Palace
* Leonine boss arena
* The cursemark of death tower
* the second visit to Roundtable
* Lakeside crystal cave (bloodhound)
* Grafted Scion arena (This one is only a dead-end because we are doing no death as well. Without no death you'd just kill Scion at the start of the game)
* Placidusax arena
In one of these dead-ends, the pureblood knight's medal can be used to bypass needing to memory of grace which is why we had to grab it during the run. But it can only be done once to cut down the memory of grace uses because Mohgwyn is also a dead-end.
The Placidusax arena is a special case because while in Farum Azula, you can't get rid of the trapped status. Even after killing Maliketh and going to the Ashen Capital (trapped is then removed), upon return to Farum Azula you are still trapped. This means that a rest would be required to get out of that arena. Because of this reason, Placidusax needed to be last to not have to add an additional rest. Getting back to Farum Azula is also the only fast travel that is required on the run which makes the most sense to do while in on of the dead-ends. I did it after getting to Roundtable the second time after killing Elden Beast.
You might be wondering why I didn't just fast travel at every dead-end instead of memory of grace. The main reason for this is that I felt that memory of grace is more of a restriction and a less powerful grace interaction than fast travelling.
in the comment you mention no death for the scion kill, so does the death from jumping off not count for the no death but the death after killing it does? obviously you just jump off before killing in all runs usually anyway, but does killing it first and then jumping off count for the death? that seems like a pretty arbitrary difference, and afaik you don't lose the runes you get from killing it if you kill it at the start, so it's not really a 'real' death.
also, what is the reason for the ranni quest? i get needing to kill adula and alekto, but why is it necessary to actually go for the ending? just for the weapon?
@lillie3752 the dark moon greatsword is incredibly powerful, does tons of damage and has a super FP efficient AoW, because it's a weapon buff that lasts pretty long, and you then also get the projectiles on heavy attacks. Aside from Adula and Alecto on the Moonlight Plateau, I think this weapon is probably the best choice for a run like this where killing bosses fast is super important, since the longer a boss fight takes, the more chances you have to get hit/killed. The AoW on the Moonlight Greatsword is also really good since, like I said before It uses FP, but you only need to use it once and then you get free projectiles on heavy attacks and charged heavies. Since it does such a large amount of damage after using the AoW, you can essentially do enough damage to only need to to use the AoW like 2-5 times depending in the boss.
How about a new challenge:
Beat the game normally
Fun fact there is 1 boss you can lock yourself out of fighting
you, your content, and your community has been more help to me than i think you’ll ever know. i look forward to seeing your videos, they can make bad days better. thanks for bringing a smile to so many people’s faces :)
“Graceless Tarnished”
Just got a new meaning
Technically true, but not exactly the case, even if you're meme-ing. The Tarnished still sees grace, and is still guided by it in context, but is just choosing to interact with grace as little as possible.
@@MinerDiner um actually 🤓🤓☝🏻
@@iiiiiic9823 you're god damn right
@@MinerDinersure, but Morgott literally calls the player "Graceless Tarnished" in his intro cinematic, so it's in the game
Gino can't touch grass. He can't leave his igloo until June.
Hats off for Hunter putting Elden Beast Soundtrack for Soldier of God, Rick. It's the respect he deserves.
Things not touched in this video:
1.) The grave
2.) Grace
3.) Grass
he touched pleeently of grass in Limgrave
GRAB SOME POPCORN AND A BLANKET LETS GET STARTED
Fart chamber
GET IN I DON'T HAVE TO BINGE OLD GINO CONTENT ANYMORE
Bro yk what I actively just laid down in bed and started eating my popcorn just as I saw this video
What u doing under the blanket man?
Cook is out and I’m rubbing
I love how the game seems to be obedient to you. Gino: “Stun maybe?” Game: “Yes of course sir, my mistake”
It's all math babay
Props to whoever edited this 5 hour masterpiece
his name is Hunter and he is the goat
The editors name is hunter! Bros fucking crazy with how good this vids are edited!
His name is hunter and I’m pretty sure he ain’t human
Hunter the GOAT
His editor
I’d like to see you do a tier list of your runs, explaining and ranking them by how hard you think they were.
Turlock and Mango does that for his secret starting class build playthroughs! Always fun to see where a build ends up on the list at the end of the video
@@michaelboyle7281 Me: Tulok has too many runs I want to watch, but I don't have enough time to watch them all
Also me when a many-hour Gino video drops: I have all the time in the world my king
ez content
I actually love how Gino’s videos are edited. They are like streams for people with adhd who can’t handle silence for 2 seconds (AKA me)
Same, But I still end up watching them sped up lol
THIS
FINALLY SOMEBODY PUT IT INTO WORDS
The best lullaby ever, a 5 hour vid of gino
Thanks Hunter
I LITERALLY was just thinking "I haven't watched a Gino video in a while, let me check if I missed an upload" and when I opened CZcams this was on the main page. LET'S GOOOO
Fr
gino is like the kurosawa of elden ring challenge runs
The dude is a master.
my man did the double illusory ring challenge in elden ring respect
Man, Thanks for another big one @ginomachino
I just love this kind of videos. Help me to relax after a big work day.
Although I have never played Elden Ring or any kind Souls game I really like the content
I love this super long type of video it allows me to do other and listen without having to worry about switching, thank you Gino!
such an amazing run, really fun to watch, thanks so much for your content as always
Wow what a video. Just spent the last 9 days watching it from the start to the end. Thanks a lot :)
Thanks for the vid Gino. Really enjoy watching these even though I don’t play too much myself anymore.
I'd love for you to make a Main Boss guide, I'm new to souls like games and would love to know what dodges to use and what to look out for, you make it look so smooth, Found your channel a few days ago and love the content you put out!. keep the videos coming Gino!.
That timewarp cut with the real time comment on the situation was absolutely great with the blur and stuff. Great cutting. Thanks :)
I often Fall asleep while watching Your videos because i watch them late in bed. This video i am watching like fourth day and currently am at 2 hours, 40 minutes. Its kind of really different and pleasant vibe, love this type of content and your canadian accent :D. Keep it up, Gino!
I’ve never played this game, but have watched all of your Elden Ring videos. You’re an awesome player and entertainer!

That was a masterpiece work of art to watch. Thank you.
Will definitely need to watch this one again, so many great moments 🤘
this is really great to see cuz the first time I ever played this game I saw that beating groups of enemies could refill flasks and that led me to theorize this might be possible.
finally finished the video, peak content like usual!
For anyone curious, the regen physick is one of the few physicks in the game that isn't a unique buff. It is coded in the game as a regen category buff and will overwrite and be overwitten by other regen buffs. The only regen buff I am aware of that is considered unique (and thus stacks) is the holy ground ash of war, which restores 17 hp/sec but doesn't overwrite any other regen buff.
had this running in the back and when he suddenly said my name from when i subbed months ago i almost had an aneurism
Just found your channel, all I can say is that your content is awesome and I still get surprised when you dodge maleanias waterfowl dance 💯
Insane gameplay as always man! Love it!
also 2:43:15 how the f Morgott still speaking is truly a game of the year moment...
Time to watch this over a few days lol. Seems good so far though, I'm liking the editing on this one.
I was gonna do the same thing😂
Remember where in Dark Souls 2 you gained a ring for not using a single bonefire (except those special after some bosses) and for playing deathless? Man those were great ways to honour such a hard task
Just finished my last test before easter break. This dropped at the perfect time🎉🎉
"There we go, dude. Simple." The calm and confidence with which you finish your runs will always impress me!
very clean death stranding playthrough mate!
5 hour video? Common hunter W
We love you big man❤️
It's truly amazing that this video is consistently entertaining for five hours
32:26 secret black knife assassin move: throwing furniture
FINALLY NEW GINO VIDEO IVE BEEN WAITING WEEKS
Let's go, new run and more excitement for the DLC.
I'm a hybrid PVE/PVP player (mostly coop nowadays, farmed over 2k furlcalling fingers from coop alone) with a ludicrous amount of time in the game, but actually not very talented or all that good at all. I learned so much from this video, I didn't know you could jump over or get right in many of the bosses faces while they're attacking and not get hit.
It's a great PVE lecture video.
My favorite fights you do are the Red Wolves... It can be a tricky boss because the fight is kinda hectic, but you have such cool strats for it and it's so clean
Bro, go touch grace.
Anyone addicted to Gino videos??? Every time he posts I just can't help myself, I have to watch it as soon as possible
Man what a combo we have on this channel it's insane. God Gamer, God route planner, With a God Video Editor. Can't get enough of it.
@GinoMachino I'm yet to watch the rest of the video so I don't know if this is addressed later on in the playthrough but it *is* possible to get two regenerative procs from the assassin's talismans, but it's weapon specific and enemy specific. My best example is using a dagger on a front critical (parry reposté or posture break reposté) on Omens; as of current patch it still gives two refills and I can verify it through a video recorded myself, I also know it works on Mirandas and Runebears but I don't know about other enemies or other weapons... it seems to be tied to the dagger's stab and then slash/pull out animation on a front critical. As for double refills from backstabs... as someone who used the assassin's talismans and greataxes (Rusted Anchor and Executioner's Greataxe) on their first playthrough... I don't recall it ever happening, even though the animation hits twice during a backstab critical animation. Hope this helps! :D
The final boss OST over Soldier of Godrick is gold. Excellent job to the editor!
Hell yea! Can’t wait to see you smash the dlc!!!
29:09 Man said "You thinking what I'm thinking partner? Aim for the bushes" 😂
GINO!! I gave up CZcams for lent, and I have to say I missed your channel. It's great to be back!
Banger as always
Lets go new vid to watch during class
another gino video, another banger
Gino mentioned in the video at 1 hour, 48 minutes, and 18 seconds that you can get double healing in the game. This works when you attack certain enemies. To do this, use the Misericorde weapon on the omen enemies in the lower area of the capital. If you have the assassin talismans equipped, you'll get back double the amount of healing and FP. I'm not sure if this trick works on other enemies too.
Never get tired of watching you slay this game.
This run reminded me of back when Elden Ring first came out and I was watching a PvP guy do his first play through and when he first gets into Limgrave he says "I'm not gonna do any fast travel because I feel like it lessens the experience of the world". He would soon find himself stuck in Caelid, no Torrent and no way to level up.. and stuck running through Caelid to get back to Limgrave. Was an unfortunate and funny series of events
My introduction to this man. A true 5 hour epic!
Finally another gino vid 🗿💯
1-leaves
2-comes back with a 5 hour video
3-leaves without further elaboration
What's really cool about a run like this is that you make use of almost everything the game has
Random consumable no one would use otherwise
Watching you fight the Regal Ancestor Spirit I realized just how much this must suck to be doing without Taker's Cameo or the Ancestors Horn for regen on kill, and getting locked out of good boss weapons like the Blasphemous Blade. Great run, I wonder how it would change on NG+
Edit: Also no Blessed Dew Talisman which would be insane for the long runs between areas
Fred, i know what we're gonna do today!😎.
Ferb?
1:25:45 They could build in a no-hit/death/bonfire challenge just like they did in DS2 as you mention. It's very surprising that they still haven't done it a second time, but then again ds2 is still the most unique fromsoft soulslike and most filled with these little extras.
Still can't get over Gino's gorgeous garden in the background, bro definitely touches grass
The backstep attack might be a thrust, it is when powerstancing but I don’t know for sure with the singular move set
After four days of watching in my free time and when I should be sleeping I have finally finished this masterpiece
Gino doesn't know who Playboi Carti is?? new Gino lore dropped
Time to fill my whole evening, thanks Mr. Gino.
Alright, I’ve been riding around on torrent, on my 2nd okay through 2 years later on this fantastic game… I randomly thought one day- wouldn’t it be wild if Gino did a “no grace touch” video. Crazy shit.
this is legendary
Still watching this 2 days later lol fkin 5 hrs 😂 I’m farming all the ad revenue
To the quest thing, propably you need to rest or quitout because is when the game checks and updates the state of the quests, and seeing that is something consistent between theirs games is really probably that is it how they have coded the progress of the quests in their game engine
1:52:35 I actually did this my first playthrough when the game first came out. I ended up switching back to my old weapons because I felt too OP lol
I listen to you at night to fall asleep thanks
This man has put more love and time into this game than i thought was physically possible.
I cannot wait to watch this for the next 3 weeks
"Why did they put these teleporters in the game?"
"Wish there was a teleporter here in Morne Castle."
One or the other, my guy.
My first playthrough, first souls game also, I beat rannis questline fairly early. Struggled hard too, especially on astel. Once I got dark moon greatsword, I was able to level it up pretty quickly to plus 8. I had to respec out of it because it was too easy lol. And I wasn't very good yet.
Gino has officially become too good
the powerstanced greatsword backstep attack is a simultaneous thrust attack with both of them
Gino and Hunter, absolute Kings 👑
what a legend
hello, insane vids ! and run ! Whats the name of the mod for the listing of all bosses on the top right ? Thanks in advance, can't wait to see other vids !
lmao his ranting during the fias run is hilarious
3:26:52 "Mohgwyn is also a dead-end." Not for long my friend, not for long. We patiently await the Shadow of the Erdtree.
4:42:54 "You go down a waterfall, wouldn't make much sense to go up one." One of the 3 cutscenes for these coffins is literally going up a waterfall! It should be two-way.
Everyone: touch grass
Gino: no, I don't think I will
My first playthrough was one oriented on strength at first but ended it with Moonlight Greatsword
The "return to entrance" wisp thingies were there because you couldn't port out of the dungeons with the map in the earlier versions of the game. So you'd have to return to entrance, walk out, and then you could port.
That is my recollection at least, someone feel free to tell me if I'm wrong. I'm not sure if you can even confirm this sort of thing with how much noise there is on google searching these days.
No bonfire run on ds2 is still my first challenge run I ever did on a souls game and I remember enjoying it a lot, I would hate to do it on elden ring though. Map is so huge. But good stuff man.
People focusing on the run
I'm counting how many runes he lost
so i'm still in the middle of the VOD but for the double procs of red and cerulean daggers it works on daggers against bigger enemies, so most minor and major bosses would give you that, it also doesnt work on NPCs
I've completed it multiple times but the drop down to the flame of frenzy AT THE END of this would be so stressful for me. Jumping on the tombs is a nightmare
Another great adventure!
actually the best pve content creator
Very nice. Now do this same in Brightis.
Hunter having the Elden Beast OST for Soldier of Godrick was incredible lol
I watch your video before go to bed every night!
