What's up, fellow Tarnished and speedrunning enthusiasts! You're watching a new personal best for the Elden Ring "All Remembrances" category, clocking in at an impressive 1 hour, 32 minutes, and 16 seconds. This run marks a significant milestone, especially with the new Confessor route I've been perfecting. While this is a fantastic **PB** for me, I truly believe there's still tons of room for improvement. We're talking potentially shattering the 90-minute barrier and maybe even pushing towards a mind-blowing 1:25:00 in the near future. The journey to master this run is ongoing, and the thrill of finding new **strats** and shaving off precious seconds is what **#speedrunning** is all about!
Embarking on the Elden Ring Speedrun Journey
Hey everyone, and welcome to GamingSpeedrun! It's incredibly exciting to share this **world record** attempt (well, *my* personal best record!) in the Elden Ring "All Remembrances" category. Hitting 1:32:16 is a huge achievement for me, and it's a testament to the countless hours spent learning, practicing, and refining my **route**. The Elden Ring **speedrun** community is absolutely buzzing right now, with new discoveries and **glitches** being found regularly. This particular run was achieved on Patch 1.02, a version that many runners agree offers some advantages for a faster playthrough compared to later patches. If you're just getting into Elden Ring **speedrunning**, or even if you're a seasoned veteran, there's always something new to learn and explore in the Lands Between.
The Run Details: Patch 1.02 and the Confessor Route
This 1:32:16 run utilized the Confessor starting class, a choice that has opened up some really interesting routing possibilities. The initial **strat** involves leveraging the Confessor's starting gear and stats to gain early advantages. Patch 1.02 is crucial here because it contains specific mechanics and enemy behaviors that are more favorable for speed. For instance, certain **skips** or sequence breaks might behave differently or be more consistent on this version.
I've been meticulously planning and experimenting with this route on my **#streaming** channel, and it's been a wild ride! Seeing the progress from initial failed attempts to this new **PB** is incredibly rewarding. The "All Remembrances" category is particularly demanding because it requires defeating every Shardbearer and obtaining their remembrance, which means tackling many of the game's toughest bosses. This includes iconic figures like Malenia, Blade of Miquella, Starscourage Radahn, and Morgott, the Omen King. Each of these encounters presents unique challenges in a speedrun context, demanding precise execution and often relying on specific **strats** to overcome quickly.
The Confessor route offers a unique advantage in the early game, allowing for quicker access to certain areas and essential buffs that significantly shave off time.
The path involves a carefully choreographed sequence of boss fights, ensuring that the most time-consuming encounters are either optimized heavily or bypassed where possible through clever **routing**. The goal is always to minimize downtime, whether it's travel time between bosses, menu navigation, or boss encounter phases.
Optimization Potential: Beyond 1:32:16
As I mentioned, 1:32:16 is just the beginning. There are still several key areas where I, and potentially other runners, can shave off significant time. One major factor is **RNG** (Random Number Generation). Elden Ring, like many FromSoftware titles, has elements of RNG that can impact boss fight difficulty, item drops, and even enemy patrol paths. Learning to adapt to good and bad **RNG** on the fly is a skill in itself.
Furthermore, the execution of specific boss strats can always be tightened. For example, perfectly executing a critical hit on a boss at a specific opening, or landing a powerful spell or weapon art for maximum damage output, can save seconds, or even minutes, over the course of a run. The **internet** is a treasure trove of discovered **strats**, and sharing knowledge within the **#speedrun** community is key to pushing boundaries.
I'm also looking at potential **skips** that might have been overlooked or are still being developed. The **#gaming** community is incredibly resourceful, and it's not uncommon for entirely new methods of sequence breaking to emerge months or even years after a game's release. Exploring the game's mechanics further, perhaps even delving into some lesser-known **glitches**, could unlock even faster times. The possibility of breaking the 1:25:00 mark feels very real with continued dedication.
The beauty of speedrunning lies in its constant evolution. What seems impossible today could be a standard strat tomorrow.
The Thrill of the Chase: RNG and Execution
The nature of **speedrunning** Elden Ring means constantly battling against the game's mechanics and the inherent randomness. Getting a good **RNG** on Godfrey, First Elden Lord, for instance, can drastically speed up that particular encounter. Conversely, facing a more aggressive Radagon of the Golden Order can lead to costly mistakes. My **PB** run had a pretty solid **RNG** overall, but there were definitely moments where I felt I could have executed better.
For those new to the **#speedrunning** scene, understanding **RNG** is crucial. It's not about luck in the traditional sense, but about recognizing patterns and understanding the probabilities involved. Skilled runners learn to adapt their strategies based on the **RNG** they encounter, maximizing efficiency regardless of the random elements. This run was a prime example of that adaptability, allowing me to secure a new **PB** even with minor **RNG** variations.
The **Confessor route** itself is a complex ballet of movement and combat. Every step, every dodge, every attack is precisely timed. Missing a dodge against a powerful boss like Astel, Naturalborn of the Void, can mean losing significant health or even dying, forcing a reset. The pressure to maintain near-perfect execution for over an hour and a half is immense, making each successful run incredibly satisfying.
