Game News This Elden Ring player has accomplished an incredible feat, no one else can survive under such conditions: this game is a nightmare!
An Elden Ring player has completely pushed the game’s boundaries to accomplish one of the SoulsBorne community’s craziest feats.
Limitless difficulty
If you thought the Souls-like community had already overcome the toughest challenges in From Software’s games, think again: Souls specialist Skum is here to prove you wrong. Determined to increase the difficulty“Fire Ring and its DLC Shadow of the Earth Treethe videographer changed his game to remove the limit on increasing enemy stats in New Game +, thus creating real power monsters that must be eliminated one by one. And he did it: Skum shared his achievement on social networks on August 28. In New Game + 1000, the player defeated all the bosses in the expansion without the blessing of the Occult Tree.
I did it. Completed Elden Ring DLC NG+1000 (unlimited NG+ scaling) without Scadutree Blessing. Every boss has 500,000 HP per bar, resistances are insanely increased, damage from enemies is in the millions, etc.

A challenge that has already been mastered
Skum therefore achieved an exceptional feat by managing to defeat Radahn and Miquella. This is even more true knowing how difficult the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion is already in the first game. Although From Software has certainly rebalanced certain parameters and made some adjustments since its release, players have highlighted how difficult the DLC and especially its final boss are. To make the journey to the Shadow Realm easier, the studio has implemented the new mechanics already mentioned, including the Blessing of the Eldritch, which significantly increases players’ stats. Knowing that Skum has not collected any of these adds further to the prestige of his achievement.
