My absolute hardest Elden Ring no hit run to date, and probably the current hardest Elden Ring run to date depending on who you ask, cut and with music for a hopefully more entertaining viewing experience. This is the accumulation of countless hours of practice and I definitely wouldn't have gone for this had it not been for the amazing people I've met through hitless and challenge running.
Funnily enough, the video is still 3 hours because 2 and a half of those are just boss fights
I still am incredibly proud of this achievement and I can't wait for someone to take on the mantle and push the limits even further
I know this is quite the out of style upload (and that it's months late) but @Leo_Mouse was kind enough to edit the footage recently and I couldn't just leave it locally on my PC or upload as unlisted because he's done an amazing job so if you've enjoyed watching this please say thanks to Leo in the comments :)
The full unedited footage of the run can be found here Elden Ring All Great Runes No Hit | RL1 No...
Run rules:
Can't get hit by a single thing in the game, failing requires me to start all the way back from the Character Creation menu.
Defeat and Collect All Great Runes (All 7) then defeat the Elden Beast and trigger an ending.
Start and end the run at Level 1 (Wretch Class)
Can't Upgrade Weapons (+0 all the way through, can't use pre-upgraded weapons like Rogier's Rapier or Spear either)
Can't use Talismans
Can't use or inflict status effects of any kind, no sleep, no bleed, no frost, no poison, no rot, no madness, no deathblight.
Can't use or inflict auxiliary damage and damage over time such as Black Flame or Destined Death.
Can't use Body Buffs (Exalted Flesh, Howl of Shabriri and the likes)
Can't use Aura Buffs (Golden Vow, Rallying Standard and the likes)
Can't use Weapon Buffs (Greases, Cragblade, and the likes)
Can't use Physick Buff (Crystal tears)
Can't use Equipment Buffs (Things like Rakshasa's Set or Stat boosting items like Rennala's Crown)
Can't use Unique buffs except the following 3: Assassin's Gambit, Endure (to not get staggered by Hoarah Loux's roar and secure an extra hit in), Black Knife Armour to silence footsteps. Anything else is out.
Can't infuse weapons but can use ashes of war as long as the infusion is set to Standard.
Can't equip any of the Great Runes or activate them for their buffs.
Fall Damage, Environmental damage, and Self-Inflicted damage (such as assassin's gambit) do not count as hits and neither does Nihil as it's impossible to avoid in base game Elden Ring on a fresh save.

The edits + music makes this really relaxing as a viewer too!
Excellent format choice! Platform certainly needs more videos showcasing challenge runs like this.
Massive congrats to you Recycle ❤
The amount of people who think a single play-through of the game where you can get hit multiple times and if you die you just restart at the same boss is harder than this run is insane. Keep in mind, ANY hit here means you restart the ENTIRE RUN. ALL of these insane fights just down the drain and he has to restart.
Almost no one will comprehend how difficult this challenge actually was. There are so many details you do not notice. He spent months studying bosses' movesets, and he learned to predict when they will do certain attacks. There is also so much AI manipulation going on in every fight, but you can not tell. He was making notes on his phone as he was grinding this run, and he got 15 pages (small pages) worth of notes. He was learning stuff about godskin duo weekly, while he had already fought them for hundreds of hours before. The amount of split second decisions you have to make in that fight is also out of this world. It may look not that bad, but I can guarantee you, that you would die within 30 seconds each time.
He had a lot of self-doubt while doing this challenge. He had to pioneer a run that he thought would be impossible, but he tried it anyways. He thought it was going to be the worst and most miserable grind ever, and it turns out he was right. It was very hard to motivate himself to do this.
He'd say this run definitely has rng to it, but you can reduce it depending on how you play. Certain decisions you make in routing can put you in a bad position that makes it way more likely for you to die to rng. He played radabeast a bit more conservative than usual, because he just wanted to get the run already.
Grinding this run for months also made him believe that everything else in this game would be super easy now. He believes he has improved a lot as a player, because he grinded them for several months straight and perfected all of his skills. Elden RIng is the game with the highest skill ceiling, with probably dark souls 3 in a close second. I think he is not gonna play Elden Ring for a couple of months, and enjoy other games. This is the peak of all SoulsBorne no hit runs.
Finally, you only see the end product of what he does. You do not see the amount of blood, sweat and tears he put into this.

Thank you everyone incredibly for all the support and the lovely words! To get the chance to share it with so many of you is an honour to me, especially when it's the run I'm most proud of :)
I cannot express my words of gratitude well enough and I fear I'll end up turning into a broken record writing the same thing over and over so I'll cut it short and say this: Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
Also while I'm at it, I want to shout out my biggest hitless inspiration to this day and my awesome friend; Wanderingblindly ( https://www.youtube.com/@wablboat ) as well as everyone I've met and learned from, This wouldn't have been possible without you all 💜
