Elden Ring (Grafted Scion Intro Boss, 7/12, Early Defeat, Samurai Origin, No Damage) PS4 Gamechive

This gaming session is part seven of a twelve part series featuring the early defeat of Elden Ring's first boss, the Grafted Scion, with every starting character class (12 total) and receiving no damage. This session follows a first run start as a Samurai character base in new game mode. The gameplay video guides players as a no commentary full playthrough and walkthrough of FromSoftware's Elden Ring video game. The Grafted Scion is a boss encounter in the game's starting area, the Chapel of Anticipation, and serves as an introduction to the game. (It isn't intended to be defeated here.) Upon death, a player will be teleported to the Stranded Graveyard, the game's proper starting area. (Though defeated, the player can revisit the Chapel of Anticipation again much later in the game for a rematch.) However, if a player is tenacious enough, the Grafted Scion may actually be defeated at this first encounter—even with starting stats and gear. The Samurai starting class can utilize a combination of Uchigatana, Longbow (Arrows x20, Fire Arrows x10), and Red Thorn Roundshield to defeat it. Being nimble, the Grafted Scion scurries about in a spider-like fashion, brandishes two Ornamental Straight Swords and a Golden Beast Crest Shield with its grafted appendages, and hits hard with jumps, swipes, smashes, thrusts, and an AOE scream. Learn its attack and movement patterns, and strike at opportunities. Be strategic with these openings, get in 1-2 hits, and roll away to safety. Its defeat yields the Ornamental Straight Sword, Golden Beast Crest Shield, and 3,200 Runes. Further exploration also nets one rare "Nascent Butterfly" crafting material. After further exploration, the player falls through crumbling ground and is teleported to the Stranded Graveyard. Intro - 00:00 Session Contents: Grafted Scion (Intro Boss) [v.1, Parry/Criticals Only] - 00:58 Grafted Scion (Intro Boss) [v.2, Uchigatana, Longbow] - 03:34 Ornamental Straight Sword - 10:53 "Slender straight sword patterned after an antique ornament. Superior swordsmen prefer to wield one in each hand. After falling grace, the dregs of the golden lineage sought power and purpose in the past. Unique Skill: Golden Tempering. Cross the two swords to grant their attacks holy essence. While in effect, strong attack performs a dual-wielding combo attack." Golden Beast Crest Shield - 11:10 "Shield of dull gold with a beast engraved as its crest. Lighter than most greatshields, and subsequently easier to wield. The beast depicted is Serosh, aged counselor who guides the golden lineage. No skill. This armament has no skill. If the armament in the other hand has a skill, that skill will be used instead." Exploration (After GS Defeat) - 12:12 Nascent Butterfly - 13:01 "An arcane butterfly with translucent wings. Material used for crafting items. Exceedingly rare to find. This butterfly appears as if it's just emerged from its cocoon for its entire life." Grafted Scion (Intro Boss) [v.3, Longbow Only, Snipe from Safe Spot] - 14:24 There is a tree all the way at the far right back of the arena where the player can safely position and dispatch the scion. Due to being equipped with enough arrows, the Samurai is the only starting origin class which can easily defeat the scion from that vantage point. --- Subscribe: https://bit.ly/3cpvcWo Twitter: https://bit.ly/3cs9p0i Donate: https://bit.ly/3oArWtu Disclaimer: Assets found on this channel (e.g., branding, images, thumbnails, videos, descriptions, etc.) are protected by U.S. and International copyright laws.
