I remember hearing people reference how terrible it was before, but seeing this for the first time is just baffling.

I can only imagine him refusing to listen to others in the room trying to subtlety give him advice.

    It’s like he wanted to be a glass cannon but couldn’t dodge well/ran out of stamina easily and didn’t like getting clobbered. Also, why have two shields? That’s just wasting equip load for no reason.

    Edit: The longer I look at this thing the more questions I have. Where are his health and mana flasks?

      Maybe he has them in the pocket slots? Somehow I doubt this guy can press 2 buttons at once to sip.

      I’ve never seen anyone try to play with a maxed out equip load. It’s a complete disaster, lol

        Overencumbered runs are possible. I have seent it in every souls game and elden ring. Not heavy roll: max load. Slow walk no roll no run. Full 100%.

        Not sure if ER DLC runs have been done yet though.

          I just tried that on my 2nd run of the DLC, and it felt amazing. I should have been light rolling this whole time.

    I watched someone do the Musk build challenge run once, but she’s one of those people who plays perfectly and never gets hit regardless so it wasn’t super interesting compared to anything else.

      Yeah, it can’t be harder than people playing at rune level 1 or with a dance pad.

    He pays others to kill things & to tell him where to go, he is just proud of how good he is playing the walking simulator.

      I suppose it’s the equivalent of spelling your name right at the top of the test, and that gets points sometimes…

        If someone gets points for spelling their name right on a test. That should be a major clue to what people think of you.

          I mean it’s mostly in, like, elementary school. But I’m pretty sure that’s exactly where we are, looking at this fucker carrying two shields and fatrolling instead of just learning to dodge

    Classic “max power!!!” move. He will end up running out of mana very quickly and be oneshot by most of the middle/high bosses in the game or any long range counter attack. Doesn’t matter from how far you shoot your stuff, you’ll need to roll out of the way as far as possible.

    Maybe he just equipped everything at once for the picture and normally swaps between these shields and weapons depending on the area/boss? It’s still not great, but nothing unusual from a first time player.

    Like, don’t get me wrong, Elon sucks and you pretty much only hear about him being dumb these days, but that build still seems worse than I’d expect if he carries everything all at once.

      You know, maybe we should give him the benefit of the doubt. That is a possibility.

    Meme runners should make this a challenge run. Call it the cyber truck build.

      I didn’t have time to watch it, but I saw someone had posted a video of themselves doing a run with this build. I have to imagine it’s hard.
