Story Finally. After ten years it happened.

Post image

Ten years, 400+ hours, i dont know how many playthroughs.

For the first time tonight i beat the bed of chaos on the first try with no deaths.

I honestly did not think this was even going to happen. Its the reason ive never attempted a deathless run before. Its actually pretty common for me to go deathless for the entire game except the BoC.

My wife wont understand lol, so im sharing this monumental occasion with you all.

Praise the sun!

BoC ruined my deathless run, and I haven’t had the heart to try it again 😩

Anyway, awesome job!

If you allow yourself to quit out it's much easier. Quit out after destroying a branch and you'll be back at the top of the slide. The real danger of that boss fight is the walk back to center from each of the branches. You can also try with a bow standing as close to the back wall as possible, you're pretty safe that way

That’s a good plan, never thought to use a bow!

I was quitting out before, I just got swept into a hole trying to drop into the middle for the final blow 😩

Yes lol that's definitely the scariest part. Try to run as soon as it finishes an attack. As for the bow, be sure to bring a lot of arrows because it's not consistent at all, all the area around the branches has very bad and weird collision. It's definitely a slow and boring process, but kind of the safest for a no death run
