Elden Ring fan wants to defeat Messmer without taking any hits every day until Nightreign appears - it's already been 23 days

Messmer would definitely love to give the challenge runner a few punches.

The concept of the upcoming co-op game is quite unusual for FromSoftwareCertainly not to the taste of all fans. But there are also many players who can hardly wait to get new food from the Souls pioneer.

Just counting the days isn't enough for a particularly ambitious fan. Instead, the YouTuber has set himself a challenge that will require a lot of endurance. Chickensandwich420 not only wants to bring the tough DLC boss Messmer to his knees every day, but has also imposed special rules for this.

And the Messmer animal greets you every day

Chickensandwich420 has a lot planned. After all, it's not even known when exactlySpin-off Nightreign will be released. In case of doubt, the fan will not have to fight with Messmer for a whole year, because he has set himself a rip cord: Chickensandwich420 explains that he wants to bring Messmer to his knees every day until June at the most.

Since a network test is planned for February, it is quite possible that the game will be released by then. Chickensandwich420 currently has over 20 fights behind him and Messmer himself hasn't had a chance yet (at least in the matches that can be seen in the video).

The self-imposed rule is that the confrontation must be “hitless” – this means that the YouTuber is not allowed to receive a hit. To do this, it is necessary to know the boss's movement patterns inside and out.

If you still haven't had enough, you can find all the other fights you've fought so far on the channel. So that it doesn't get too boring, the YouTuber goes into battle with a variety of weapons and also accepts requests from the community. This makes the challenge even harder, as it means that the fights can't always be exactly the same.

The fan's life bar already looks empty at the start of the fight. However, we assume that there is still 1 LP available. When using a Red Feathered Branch Sword Talisman, attacks at low health are boosted, which provides an advantage.

In order to be able to face Messmer again and again without having to fight his way back to this point in the game, the fan uses a save game organizer. This is not based on the normal New Game, but on an NG+7 score.

This is DLC boss Messmer

Messmer is, so to speak, the face of the-Extension. The boss already played a particularly prominent role in the first trailer and is not only an imposing appearance, but also important for the lore in the DLC area.

Typical of the bosses of the add-on, Messmer offers a particular challenge because he can quickly string together combos and cover large distances. In addition, after a transformation there is a second phase, which tends to be easier than the first.

What do you think about this challenge? Could you imagine fighting the same boss every day with special rules? And are you already counting the days or are you not interested in Nightreign?
