Myself and a few guidlies killed JK with only pierce weapons a few days ago just for the heck of it xD
Pierce-Only Jelly King Run!
He did a duo pierce, used poison and both died a couple times. I tried it out minutes ago simply because I wanted to see its' difficulty compared to Proto JK. Hands down pierce is extremely easier...I did this solo, without poison, and without deaths using just Blitz Needle. Also made mistakes getting hit, although the positioning of the boss was spot on. It gave me 4 tokens randomly too lol.
The thing is...I recorded this, but does anyone else think a pierce only no-death JK solo is worth uploading?
Kill time was about 4 to 4 1/2 minutes...
Could you stop comparing your achievements with other people's? As much as I admire your skill I have to say that not everyone is trying to 1up you or make you look bad…this isn't a competition.
I'm with Demonicsothe
We miss you Nicoya!
Whoever deosnt likew competitons stop living.
Tell me 1 human activity that hasnt been turn into some sort of comeptiton or 'sport' yet.
Its Human nature to be better than someone else at something.
Whetever you have or not the modesty to keep silent and laugh in secret is another thing.
+1 To Juances.
But Juances, It's also human nature to belittle those who have outmatched us.
I don't have it on video, so you may not believe me, but I did a run of the sort back in June with my Furious Flamberge and Blitz Needle. However, Nicoya was the first I can recall to do a run like this AFTER the Jelly King Patch, as I did it before the patch, hence making me have a slight advantage.
Still though, no need to nag on the OP for something they're proud on.
Actually, most of the reason I'm here is because when Nicoya made his run he specifically pointed out my run (The Proto Run I did before it) and tried to convince people that piercing only was harder. Not only was that an attempt at 1up elitism, the charge was flat out false.
Next time get in on the entire conversation because it was Nicoya that fired the first shots...Its someone throwing around their ego and I'm rightfully defending myself. You should be ashamed.
I might upload to tinypic instead of YT though, I'm still not convinced its worth an upload.
If I remember the correct thread, guyinshiningarmour said something about proto anything being an endurance test.
And I think Nicoya was also referring to the fact that there was vials involved. And it was proven that as long as you have a curse vial, you can beat jk with minimum effort.
But I could be recalling the wrong thread.
You are recalling the right thread. Nicoya essentially said proto with vials was essentially minimum effort because of the curse vials. Then again...not only has no one else done it, no one else...especially Nicoya would even dare take 3 curse vials to JK to prove it. This is because the run required far more than curse vials it required ALOT of calculation. If JK and the Knight weren't perfectly positioned during the entire fight the boss would outheal the curse vials easily.
As the only person with the experience to actually say so, Piercing JK without vials is FAR EASIER than Proto JK with vials.
(Edit: Remember....no one even thought 2* JK was possible before I did it (Pre Nerf and Post Patch). And people only talked about 0* JK when they were trolling because everyone "knew" there was no way to do it solo. Now people are talking about "how easy it is" when STILL no one else has done it o-O. And yes, I'm also still talking about the 2* solos too...)
The OP wanted to show a guild project he and his friends worked on. If you all want to continue to try and compare e-ego (keeping it PG-13), go make your own thread elsewhere and stop spamming this one.
Cool vid, man. Now to see a rocket-hammer-only SL Snarby run!
I know I'm not the first one to do this. But i did it, I'm proud of it and i want to share it. I'm not sure why you all insist on bringing up Nicoya, but he did a great job as well.
Might try it solo next time. Or maybe a completely different challenge! (Lots to pick from in Iron's thread -.-)
EDIT:
@Simohayha: Thank you <3
Nicoya did a pierce only jk first.
May Skyrim rest his soul.
