Mastering the Saxophone Challenge
Dr. DeComposing, who previously accomplished the first-ever “hitless doot run” using a saxophone, has now defeated the expansion’s final boss, Radahn the Consort of Miquella, in New Game Plus. Using an electric saxophone, the Roland Aerophone-AE10, he showcases his victory in a thrilling video.
Innovating Gameplay with Unique Setups
On social media, Dr. DeComposing details his new challenge setup, incorporating a Great Katana and Deflecting Hardtear Only for his runs. He aims to complete a Rune Level 1 (RL1) run of Shadow of the Erdtree with the same saxophone-controlled system, promising more exciting gameplay for his followers.

Rising to New Challenges in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree

From starting the DLC at level 1 with no gear to meticulously planning routes, gamers are pushing their limits. Notably, one player spent 800 hours in the expansion’s opening area for a flawless run, while another disabled gamer used one finger and voice commands to defeat the base game’s Malenia.
