Drip-Goku with the jacket is down there. ;)

I love your content, and that curious / inquisitive score too!

You should do a video showcasing whats underneath all boss arenas that have anything underneath them

Can you kill hora loux down there?

@@joko2882 the other video cited shows that he's not active and can't be damaged. But they hadn't tried multiplayer.

Horah Loux, just trying to enjoy his coffee: "Eh?"

“Moving on, if you look down this pit, you’ll see a glowing light, that’s our one and only elden beast! Despite local residents claiming it to be the the “vassal beast of the greater will” or “living incarnation of order” they’re just actually very rare animals that have evolved from fish”

@@Sky_darts "Ordinarily, folks, Tarnished are not allowed past the barrier to see it. And of course, today will be no exception."

😂

Man's pulled a freiza

Hoarah just casually chilling beneath the Erdtree, then a random witch comes sprinting by

The Long March was just him sent off to get milk.

@@GoldLight73 casually tips his crown to her and returns to holding his threatening pose, waiting for someone to enter his arena 3.7 miles above him

1st place, horah loux, chieftain of the badlands. 2nd place. Madalin mccan- THE ALLLLLL KNOWINGGG

Like patches but less nefarious

like a fandom skeleton (i dont have examples of note] edit: the cat from coraline

Rise and shine, mr tarnished... Wake up and smell the erdleafs

The skyward sword music really lends credence to the idea that Zullie works for some mysterious boundary break diety

Same, when I saw the title i thought there was gonna be a giant tentacle monster or something

@@GayForklift I mean, that's literally just Godwyn, LOL

Funnily enough, it's exactly what should be there

@@Psianth And that is. Death incarnate, princeful by nature only by sea.

@@GayForklift Well. That’s kind of exactly what the elden beast is just…cosmic lmao

I remember someone saying that the arena you fight in is literally within the big storm in Farum Azula.

It’s actually in the tornado. Really cool how they accurately placed it

It's not only within the Tornado, but it's also beneath every other structure in Farum Azula.

@@Welcometotheslam5424 Isn't above every structure?

It's above the storm

Yep. He needs to improve his tastw in musical atmosphere

@@theProClaimer completely disagree I love the music he uses for these

@@theProClaimer using music from zelda in his videos is a tradition now, and I like it :D

Zefrank1 : Meet Suzie! Suzie is an elden beast... That is how elden beasts, dooo... Jerry, do we have another footage?

What if you🫵 wanted to fight elden beast🪱 but you saw him chillin😎in the void⚫️

Without killing them, right? And not resting at a grace site?

@@mb2001Without killing them I’m pretty sure.

It doesn't matter if you kill them or not, the main trigger for that is stealing their smithing stone (some might actually continue to dig nothing)

I noticed that when playing. I even thought it was sad for them to have lost their only purpose

The moon

and Placudisax

@@sahinlandman4667 yes

@@sahinlandman4667 At the top of the tornado

@bruh meme I'm telling you right now, if you use the free cam and go to the top of the tornado, his arena is there. Idk what you're on about

even then it's still a fascinating look at how the game is designed. the bosses don't just randomly spawn. they are entirely separate entities already loaded and just get moved for the fight.

"Little practical use" does describe about 90% of speed run strats to be fair lmao

Why a parasite?

@@massimilianoreali4398 Feature wise, the elongated head and appendages, root like tail and eyeless head all have a parasitical look to them to me. Plus the Erdtree itself and along with it, the Elden Beast, seem to be grafted to preexisting roots, taking over.

@@Psykout what are these preexisting roots that you are taking?

@@massimilianoreali4398 Down in Deeproot Depths, there are a lot of things down there that resemble tree grafting

Wasn't he nailed to a tree with speers in a trailer?

i know this is a joke but this is literally what he does in the game lol. he doesnt show up until after you kill his son and burn the erdtree and morgott probably loves his dad so he likely let him chill in leyndell and sulk around the erdtree until he could go in

@@MVCx_xB where do you read about the lore on Morgotts and Godfreys relationship?

Horah Loux most likely arrived last due to him being the last to awaken. Given that he was once Elden Lord grace may of only revived him in desperation if it was unsure if we would finish. Most likely he awakened between us going to the mountain top of the giants and arrived just before the ashh fell.

The devs seem to like using a combination of storage tricks and specific placement to create those kinds of illusion.

Limit breakers will take your useless data

It was not an apology.

Also, people are really dedicated to go out of bound

I believe it unloads the FLOOR underneath the Elden Beast causing it to fall to death, if it just unloaded Elden Beast then it wouldn't give a win message/condition. I think.

@@videos2896 Yes, the game unloads an area when the player moves too far away from it, and the zip yeets the player far enough that the level around the Elden Beast gets unloaded. And coincidentally the Elden Beast then falls a bit faster to its death than the player so it counts as kill.

Even gods were no match of gravity

@@karozoronah146 As a Dragon's Dogma pawn would put it (after taking fall damage), "'Tis a formidable foe!"

The normal Ancestor cave is below his mausoleum, under the map, I went there with freecam. But I couldn't find the Regal Ancestor cave.

@@RashFeuer26 I wonder if the Regal Ancestor uses the same cave? They're not that far from each other so it would make sense

Ok I just checked again and the Regal Ancestor cave is also below his own mausoleum. I think last time I didn't find it because I was going out of bounds from lower Siofra and maybe the regal cave only loads if you're in upper Siofra/Nokron.

@@RashFeuer26 Thanks much for verifying!!

And has the best OST in the game imo

Hitting that thing feels good too

It looks like a human shark with a worm head.

It's a very mid boss after the strong one-two combo of Godfrey and Radagon. I actually think a 2 phase fight against Radagon & Marika would've been a better final boss, but the Elden Beast tells a better story with regards to how it's a manifestation of the Greater Will and the Outer Gods and all that stuff. But yes, the cosmic space man-whale aesthetic is very cool.

@@aCeruleanStateMusic Absolutely, I also think that Godskin Duo and Mohg’s themes slap

Wtf is a zip

to "zip" means that a player will travel a very long distance in one frame. As it happens in one frame, you need frame-perfect inputs to do it It's basicly teleporting. The interesting thing is, that if an enemy is loaded and you use a zip to move so far away from them into an empty part of the map, the buildings and other structure will not bei loaded anymore, but the last loaded enemies are still there. They are then falling to their death. This is how malekith and the Elden Beast are killed in the Speed Run. Distortion2 made good video about it and Seeker is the current record holder. Don't know If Zullie will make a vid about it, but it would be nice to see the enemies falling into nothing as the structure disappears

@@mr_reynard2841 thanks!

*Maliketh

......all of this is insane

I think the end bit is more Zullie saying even if you can survive jumping there (mayhap another fall death cheese, we've had them before) it's not going to be a no-zip route because of the wall.

Same here... combination of issues with heights and a feeling like something that shouldn't be known might reach out at any moment and grab you

Same here, i find it both fascinating and spooky at the same time >>

I feel 100% the same, there's no way in heck I could do what Zullie does for a living. Honestly I feel like I'm investigating some place and might come across a body lmao

I know what you mean, but maybe that's why I also found out of bounds exploration so exciting. It was a common passtime when I was a kid to go out of bounds on Halo maps, it always felt like I was doing something I wasn't supposed to, and would freak me out when I found weird glitches while out of bounds. I think knowing more about how games work has sadly killed a lot of the spookiness and excitement in going out of bounds but it's still interesting to me

I can't relate to you guys about being spooked by any of this, but I am intrigued to hear it. Although, I guess it depends on what is out of bounds.

TRUE!

Nice catch. I never noticed how similar this place is to Ash Lake.

ash lake with gold trees ✨

I think I saw something alluding to it replacing but I could be misremembering. I don't remember which video either, only that the capital was tangentially related. So if anyone knows for sure, I would also like to know.

I think they're entirely different areas, with one on top of the other. If you use a hack to enable all sites of grace at all times, you'll see that Leyndell and ashen Leyndell have separate sites and that a few almost perfectly overlap, and that you can teleport between them at any time

@@sandrin0 Ah, the "almost overlapping" is probably what got me confused, ty

It is a new arena that replace the other. When you kill malekith you trigger a flag that changes all the world

Surely it has to replace it right? Since if you rode there on horse you wouldn't end up back at the old capital

I've heard that the tail is the tree, and the body is the root system. Whatever the light on the head is supposed to be is anyone's guess.

@@davidhong1934 to me it always looks like a representation of life in general. The tail like a tree, wings, fins, a long weird tube head that for some reason reminds me of an amoeba and the five fingered hand wich represents intelligent life.

I don't think there was any lore reason to putting it there, likely just a technical one so there would never be any issues when loading the second half of the final boss, much like how Hoarah Loux is already preloaded for the godwyn fight. That way, simply loading the area and going through the loading screen would leave everything prepared to minimize issues.

iirc it's off Limgrave's west coast, far below the ocean.

spoiler: it is already the case, with speedruns in 4-5 min

Do it! I started a play through with a Castlevania theme, using only weapons which approximate ones found in the Castlevania series. My primary weapon is the Urumi whip and I also rely on holy water pots, throwing knives and the discus of light spell. It has really refreshed the game for me. Can't just rely on habits or OP stuff. Find a cool or unusual build and stick with it. It's a ton of fun.

Placidusax' arena is circular, but I don't know whether it's already loaded in with the rest of the area.

placidusax’s arena

​@@DoubleOhSevenRS placis arena is atop the giant tornado, i think zullie explored this as well

probably just a bug with the skybox

No, the model doesn’t have collision detection until the game activates phase 2 of the boss fight and pulls the model

no so like in previous souls games, its a pretty common feature of theirs to store the second phase of the boss somewhere deep down to save process or storage space? and whenever you fight godfrey you are actually damaging hoarah loux AS well down there, they share the same health bar, so when it triggers the model below gets loaded. also if anyone is curious i also found 3 malenias deep down the haligtree after no clipping

@@yashgatade8201 what a terrifying moment that must have been

Not intentionally but if you zip really really far you can unload them and beat the game

@@yashgatade8201 I wonder why it's three, after all it's just two phases. Or does the game internally count the beginning as another phase where Malenia doesn't yet do her combo? Anyway her fight is a bit weird because in the first phase she survives ripostes with 0 health (or very close to zero) and can only be sent to the second phase by hitting her normally.

If I recall correctly, the stone platform is actually inside of the Erdtree, since that's where the marking for dropped runes appears when you die to Radagon.

@@kRx1203 also the site of grace you get after killing Elden Beast appears in the Erdtree as well

I had to come up with a new one for the Sekiro video, so I figured I may as well keep using it from now on.

@@ZullietheWitch Yeah I thought that one was a one-off thing XD
