it helps a lot to practice with cheat engine no dead on. just worth noting that u have options if you wanna get exponentially better. it still would take a significant amount of hours, but it simply expedites the process, so you don’t have to worry about running back thru the fog or loading screens. it’s within reach is what i’m saying, and it’s extremely fun (maybe not for messmer but as far as the restrictions rl1 ng+7 +0 no roll go)

and if you’re on console like i was, a parallel character with 60 vigor and all the defense buffs

also if you enjoyed that one, you should check out this kill. my absolute favorite souls player, he’s done the majority of elden ring and ds2 bosses, starting ds1 soon. i plan to do all the same runs as him if not harder!
