The Elden Ring community is at it again. Someone came up with perhaps the most impractical means of blitzing FromSoftware’s action RPG epic — by using nothing but a bow.
On Wednesday, YouTuber Ymfah made the bow-only challenge for themselves. No Moonveil Katana, Lusat’s Glintstone Staff, or spells of any kind — only projectile weapons. Now, you’re likely wondering how that’s even possible since bows in Elden Ring are not great for killing blows. Ymfah knows that too, picking up every trinket and as many runes as possible to create one diabolical build.
Check out the video below of Ymfah’s bow-only exploits. There’s no doubt that a lot of theorycrafting went into this.
Ymfah is the same person that beat Dark Souls 3 without walking, so they clearly know FromSoftware’s games well. I wonder if they’ll go after Elden Ring‘s most memorable bosses in time. Some are probably damn near impossible with only bows, though.
Elden Ring fans are constantly one-upping each other’s ridiculous feats. Whether playing with controllers made of bananas or finishing the game in less than seven minutes, the community is all about creating fun through non-traditional means. Or they’re all gluttons for punishment, who knows.
