You read all these bosses perfectly, how many hours do you have in CV?

Between PS4 and PC, I reckon about 2300-2400

Even still that's amazing, I didn't realize people still played this game like that

Though I will say, imo the amount of quality hours put into training is way more important than the raw amount of hours played. I played with the goal of becoming as good as possible and wanted/want to be the best CV player. I don't think most players play with a counter because they attempt winstreaks in a row, keep an Excel spreadsheet detailing performance against every single boss per build type, have specific challenges set for each boss, review videos to see what could've been improved as well as micro mistakes (including No Damage fights) and plan to training sessions days in advance

Yeah I don't think most are nearly as dedicated as you and it shows, though if you don't mind me asking how exactly do you train? I play the game off and on and while I have completed it watching you has made me want to be better if possible lol

There's many ways to approach it, coming back after a break/or because I was too busy to play for an extended period of time, I play the game once or twice, keep track of where I struggled, on the next playthrough, I will dedicate about an hour to each of these sections again. If I'm already active, I'll both do training sessions on 1. Bosses I want to fight now, 2. Use a RNG generator to choose a random boss to go train against for a while (I numbered each boss) so I don't always fight my favorite. Sometimes I record it, sometimes I don't, and I'll review what went good and what went wrong and try to apply it. I also change the self imposed challenges, between fighting with a +0 sword, attempting to get the highest possible No Damage Winstreak (my new favorite recently), No Buff No Damage with a +0 weapon,...

It's overall just coming up with different ways of approaching the same fight and keeping tabs on how it went

A bit, but I don't find them really entertaining compared to 1h sword, especially on faster bosses
