8 minutes is completely reasonable once you know the bosses, their tells, and parry timing. Just got it done in 7:36 and my run was pretty sloppy tbh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1J2xlXVRUlM

NICE, I'll be checking out your run too then! How did you practice?

I just replayed Challenge mode and learned the bosses through repetition, getting more practice on the earlier guys and slowly learning the later bosses over time. I still was pretty bad at the final boss' 2nd/3rd phases outside of his charge up/burst attack and horizontal projectile which are pretty easy to parry.

Why oh why would they randomly decide that this should be 8 instead of 10!!

^ to reward those who are willing to get over the hump and prevail. 8 is totally doable with practice and persistence.

This shit sucks and I still haven't done it! D: haha

Just completed this. Took about 7-8 hours of runs. Would recommend watching the world record run to see the type of attack patterns you should use

Thanks +1

The blueprint is shown in the videos, thank you. This is a hard achievement and you'll likely need a little luck too. Sometimes you mess up or the bosses use attacks that can't be parried and take longer to kill than expected. Accept it and keep trying, it is possible.

Eg. I had a run where the serpent-boss took a dive and had lava coming up with literally 1 HP left, and I ended that run in 8:05, could arguably have gotten it there. I tried again and ended around 9 minutes. It is hard but keep trying, take breaks when needed, and eventually you will get it :)
