Youtuber Iron Pineapple, a well-known content creator specializing in soul-like titles, video immortalizing his latest achievement: completed Hand Ring where the character’s equipment constantly exceeds the maximum load limit and therefore never enslave, run and jump. And to make things even more interesting, he saw fit to set himself the limit of (almost) never using Torrente.
As you can learn by watching the video, this challenge is particularly interesting as it doesn’t just slow progress. completely changes the balance. Stamina regenerates slowly, and the inability to dodge makes it necessary to completely rethink any type of combat. Likewise, not being able to run and jump makes it much more difficult to get around, so it has to be calculated with reasoning.
Also, as stated at the beginning, Iron Pineapple has decided to impose the rule on himself. Never use torrent (except for one forced jump), the ghost horse of the Unlighted. Reason? Suffering more and necessitating almost all conflict in the open world of Elden Ring, thereby drastically changing the approach to adventure. An example is the ambush to reach Grantempesta Castle in Soglia Tempesta, which is otherwise easily circumvented on horseback.
About Storm Storm CastleIron Pineapple’s approach to researching this Legacy Dungeon is particularly interesting. Unable to jump, he had to go through the main entrance while being targeted by ballistas, remember, before he could run and escape.
Related to the matter, a quest was recently discovered in the Elden Ring game files, where the player can choose the new Lord of the Sepulchrid.
