  • EDIT: The skip was previously discovered and optimized by AstrasEvolution, Elomavi, Sir Sins, and KyoshiCadre within the UTY Speedrun community at speedrun.com/UTY. I hope this video helps people learn about the concept though regardless. Their links are below for more speedrunning content:

    Update: Now that I've uploaded this, it looks like the skip HAD been previously discovered by a user named AstraEvolutions, who worked alongside Elomavi, Sir Sins, and KyoshiCadre in the UTYellow speedrunning community to perfect it at speedrun.com/UTY. Big thanks to @KyoshiCadre for informing me of this. They've actually made use of this skip for some time now in their World Record attempts, which you should check out! www.youtube.com/@KyoshiCadre
    So yeah, this doesn't count as a "Discovery". My b. Still, I hope that people find this little stream highlight interesting! Maybe people can learn more about the value of this concept from a speedrunning perspective or in general.

      Oh well, at least making some documentation on it should make it easier for people to find. Great video by the way, I love the emotion and edits and stuff, much better than I could do by putting text on the screen

      @@FactsAndPain Thanks so much, and thank you for your interest! And yeah, just broader reach is really my main goal here. I dont plan on running the game but I know there are people that might find this useful, even casual players who may just wanna bypass that one god forsaken attack.
      Who knows what else could come of it, game's been out a few weeks after all.
      Also, side note, after speaking to a few of the people who were already working on perfecting the skip, I found that your estimates were basically right on the money. Basically you just assumed an 800HP Health Pool, when it's really 850HP. Regardless, mechanically you pretty much got it. As far as why that ~14% threshold allows for a skip and a random attack rather than the DM attack is still a mystery though...

      @@ArbitraryDevCC Yeah I've redone all my calculations and was about to upload my findings. I didn't want to use your footage (mainly because my video editor didn't like using a 4 hour long file) so I did a run myself and showed Martlet's current HP during the attempt

    I knew when I was fighting this boss that there was probably a SUPER specific health total she could be on to skip that final attack but I never got lucky enough to try.

    • @ArbitraryDevCC
      @ArbitraryDevCC  Před 5 měsíci +3

      My assumption was that I could skip TO the final attack, but I've seen so many people get it and have to deal with the Endure that I wouldn't have figured it was possible. I sure as hell wasn't going for it, and I sure as hell wouldn't have won without it. 😭

    Fantastic production value! I remember this attack being rather stressful, so it's nice to see someone going through the trial of finding a skip.

    • @ArbitraryDevCC
      @ArbitraryDevCC  Před 5 měsíci

      Thanks so much! And yeah, that attacked kicked my behind. Kicked my spirit too when I survived it an hour+ PRIOR to this skip and lost the fight because I ACTed again instead of attacked when she had like 10hp. :3
      This may have been the luckiest I've ever gotten live lol, I sure as hell wasn't hunting. The real runners in the pinned get the kudos for all THAT effort.

    I actually finally got around to beating genocide yesterday (I kept the prepatch version to feel the intended dev difficulty) and this is how I beat her. I noticed it might be possible and said screw dodging and went all out on damage on her last turn and managed to skip the DM. I was laughing and screaming f$#% you at the screen 😂😂😂

    • @ArbitraryDevCC
      @ArbitraryDevCC  Před 5 měsíci +2

      Grats, you deserve the popoff. 😂
      Yeah, apparently the updated strat in runs is to just max damage every turn and you're basically guaranteed to land it every time, so the real answer has always been "git gud".
      I couldn't imagine doing this without a heal ACT. Rumor has it that [Endure] not working on 1.0 was a bug, but regardless I salute those taking the challenge, shit is bonkers.

    • @Parzival0
      @Parzival0 Před 5 měsíci

      @ArbitraryDevCC doing it without the heal act is pretty rough but if you can manage to bring a healing item or 2 it is definitely manageable. I got my gunpowder into phase 2 and it made it very manageable.

    This totally happened to me on my final attempt fully expecting to die to the final attack but then I skipped it.

    • @ArbitraryDevCC
      @ArbitraryDevCC  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Honestly when i landed the hit i was totally expecting her to endure, i had never seen anybody deal damage past 1hp before the DM but then i realized that usually happens DURING it. So glad i got lucky

  • @lefthandedscout9923
    @lefthandedscout9923 Před 5 měsíci

    One of my friends did this by accident on their only successful run. Nowadays with 1.1 giving the Endure ACT phase 2 is basically free, but I suppose this still helps for speedruns the koment people stsrt consistently doing it

  • @mrmonke1234

    i also skipped it. u do it by getting martlet as low as possible using the soul blaster and then killing marlet with the fight button and not missing

  • @undeadreborn4867
    @undeadreborn4867 Před 5 měsíci +1

    if i had to guess Zenith Marlet is programed so that when she hits certain ranges of her Hp she does her power attacks, what you likely had happen was you fell just short of triggering her last attack during your third to last turn then did enough damage to her durring her attack that when you made your second to last attack it was able to clear her final attack threshold and in turn result in marlet instead repeating one of her "weaker" attacks before finishing her off. the best way to test for these thresholds outside of going into the code is to figure out how much damage each soul shot does and how much minimum-maximum damage she has to take before doing the strong attacks, then it's just a matter of counting your shots during each of her attack phases and then attacking yourself.
    Note: if i am right about this then it shouldn't matter how much damage you do to her with soul shots during her attacks so long as you clear this threshold with your next regular attack, also i am not a speed runner or a programer I'm hypothosising based off given information.
    Finally: if it turns out I'm wright about this to an extreme degree and someone was able to find this out through my comment i would love this strat to be caled the Undead Phantom Evasion or UPE!

    • @ArbitraryDevCC
      @ArbitraryDevCC  Před 5 měsíci

      This assumption is entirely correct! After beating the fight and ending the stream this was my loose theory, and myself and the other user in the pinned were talking about what those values could possibly be. As he was figuring them out his own way, I ended up finding the UTY speedrun discord where they showed me the in depth strategy behind it, and how it can be done super consistently now with practice.
      The interesting part is that it's only for that move, and that though we know that she'll do a random move if that threshold is crossed in a specific way, we still don't know why...I'm hoping this vid may inspire someone to figure that part out too.
