Elden Ring pacifist beats the game without harming any of the RPG’s 200+ bosses, leaving the community to wonder: “When do we get to a point where there’s nothing else to do?”

For the very first time, an influential Elden Ring live-streamer successfully conquered every boss in the game during a single playthrough… entirely without landing a single hit.

Skumnut stands out as one of the most active players in Elden Ring, having completed the game under extreme conditions. Not just defeating the bosses from FromSoftware at an extraordinarily high level, but doing so without receiving a single strike throughout the entire gameplay on an unlimited New Game+ 1000.

In this performance, the Briar Set armor, featuring sharp thorns, was employed. These thorns inflict harm on adversaries when you evade roll close to them. Additionally, the Rupture Crystal Tear can be utilized in the Flask of Wondrous Physick, granting a single explosion per battle. Contrary to what one might think from the description of the feat, Skumnut prefers not to rely on summons and will only use them when absolutely necessary or for time-saving purposes.

Thanks to a fresh YouTube video on the Skumnut channel, you have the opportunity to view the entire run from start to finish, reminiscent of the epic length of “The Lord of the Rings” series.

Undeniably, achieving this feat in Elden Ring’s challenge runs is an impressive milestone, reaching heights that leave some, such as Twitter user @rannisfang, questioning: “At what point is there nothing left to accomplish?” However, the truth is, there’s always more to explore, and I’m certain someone will discover a unique method to conquer the game without taking any damage at level 1. This might involve an unconventional control technique that no one has considered before, like using a grape attached to a bottle cap or something equally unusual.
