From Software’s hardcore role-playing game continues to inspire players to take on the most absurd, but also the most difficult challenges, even after more than two years
Remember MissMikkaa? The streamer’s doggained notoriety some time ago for playing a bit ofElden Ringhimself in her absence. It worked so well because the Swede was playing through the game with a dance mat at the time. So she knows all about tough challenges
269 hours Elden Ring
MissMikkaa defeatedall 165 bossesin the game – yes, there really are that many – with a character at level 1. In fact, that was only part of the challenge and actually the easy one. Here she celebrates the end in a post on X, formerly Twitter:
I DID IT! I beat ALL 165 bosses in Elden Ring in the hardest possible difficulty NG+7 (Journey 8) as a level 1 character!
The whole run (8 playthroughs) took 269 hours, nice, my longest challenge run to date. More info in replies. Now I’m FINALLY ready for Shadow of the Erdtree pic.twitter.com/VkZmbisDui

Her run only ended when she defeated the final boss inNew Game Plus 7 This means she has defeated all bosses not just once, buteight timesup to the highest difficulty level at level 1.
In addition, she refrained from using any kind ofspells or weapon skills She did not use throwing projectiles, large runes or spirit ashes (summoned helpers).
The total of eight runs then took just269 hours That’s probably more time than most people spent in Elden Ring at all
Trial and Error
While the streamer has quite a bit of experience with Elden Ring, with a level 1 character on maximum difficulty, any mistake, no matter how small, will result in the game over screen.
In NG+7 alone, she was defeated 2,145 timesby her opponents. Her toughest opponent, by the way, was not the player-terrorMalenia– here MissMikkaa only needed 63 attempts.
TheGargoyle Duoturned out to be the toughest opponent in the aqueduct at Siofra. She only managed to win 405 times.
The streamer is already working on her next challenge in preparation for the DLC Shadow of the Erdtree, as she says. This time she wants to finish the game without using healing.
