No hits, only doots

OneElden Ringplayer has been practicing hitless runs using nothing but an electric saxophone for a controller, and it seems he’s now achieved ultimate victory by achieving a perfect victory against all seven Great Rune bosses using the power of the doot.
Yet Dr. DeComposing has not stopped dooting through the RPG, and set off on an even greater challenge - a hitless doot run that includes all sevenElden Ring Great Runebosses. Yes, that means Malenia, too. He actually managed a hitless Malenia fightback in October, proving the run could be viable, but the months since that initial victory have been filled withheartbreakingly close attempts to string it all together.
Now, at last, final victory has been achieved. Dr. DeComposing posted the final moment of the run in a Twitter clip, and it’s tough to imagine a more thrilling win. Now, of course, I have to imagine he’s just preparing forElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree.
The legendary difficulty of FromSoftware’s RPGs has attracted all sorts of weird challenge runs over the years, and Elden Ring is no exception. We’ve seen players achieve victories with adance pad, asteering wheel, aBop It, agoldfish, and even theraw power of thought. But doing it with a saxophone - hitless, no less - is still a damned impressive accomplishment.
Elden Ring’s DLC can only be reached from a very specific late game location – 13 years later, is this signature FromSoftware access method still practical?
