DISCLAIMER: I’m aware of the fall damage explanation not being up to date with current knowledge. We were unaware of this info when making the video, mistakes happen :) I went to see how it would look with it trimmed out (you can cut stuff out of videos on YouTube after they're uploaded), but it made the whole section janky and not flow well, and I'd prefer to leave it in with the disclaimer here that the fall damage explanation is not accurate. Fall damage is based on distance between your starting height and landing height. With zips, you end up at heights around the same or above where you started, so no fall damage is taken in most cases. seeker’s Any% (Unrestricted) World Record: https://youtu.be/KRGkMxmyazw seeker’s Any% (Restricted) Personal Best: https://youtu.be/wYBiFTger5o Gameplay only version of the Any% (Unrestricted) run: https://youtu.be/UUarmfSEy3Y Gameplay only version of the Any% (Restricted) run: https://youtu.be/xs4m3o-TdGk Forsa’s Glitchless World Record: https://youtu.be/Dgetv7usduQ Muftaay’s Any% (Restricted) World Record w/ Chainsaw Glitch: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1512918858 seeker’s YouTube channel: @seekerTV seeker’s Twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/seekerTV seeker’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/seeker_TV Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/tomatoanus Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/tomatoanus Twitter: https://twitter.com/tomatoanus Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/tomatoanus Merch: https://www.woof.store/ Shirts: https://teespring.com/stores/tomatoanus Discord: https://discord.gg/tomatoanus SPEEDRUN EXPLAINED Playlist: http://bit.ly/2XMuJmL SPEEDRUN EXPLAINED Thumbnails Folder: https://bit.ly/3wDRX0A So far on the tomatoanus channel, we’ve covered Sekiro, Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2, Bloodborne, Dark Souls 3, and Demon’s Souls. Now it’s time to bring it all home by covering Elden Ring in this SPEEDRUN EXPLAINED. We worked together with seeker, world record holder for the Any% (Unrestricted) category, to bring you a video covering TWO runs of From Software’s newest installment: Any% (Restricted) and Any% (Unrestricted). In this video, we first go over the Restricted run, followed by the Unrestricted run, explaining all the tricks along the way, including easy boss strats, warping all around the map (wrong warps), the infamous zip glitch, and much much more. This video serves as an explanation of the strategies seeker uses to beat the game in both 25 minutes and 5 minutes. #EldenRing #FromSoftware #Speedrun
