In Elden Ring the giant great jar in front of the colosseum wants you to fight 3 red invaders(NPC) back to back without dying. I tried it quite a few times until I had enough and placed myself in front of a cliff, where they promptly rollspammed into their doom.

I did the fall critical glitch to get to the bottom of that damn shaft with the fingerprint shield the first time I got down there in Elden Ring. I couldn't platform on those damn planks and kept dying so I said fuck it. Other than that one I can't think of any glitches I know of let alone tried.

Glitches I have tried and some I have heard of:

::: spoiler DS1: Duping: duping consumables like Souls and Humanities using the brightness menu and duping of various items with the help of the Blacksmith. I never used these Glitches to level up, only to buy out merchants and to cut down on grindig Covenant items and similar things.

Other interesting DS1 glitches I haven’t performed: Force quit wrong wrap: closing the game just at the end of the loading screen sends you to the default location of the area. This for example facilitates easy escape from Ash lake or the catacombs.

There are also various Glitches to eliminate fall damage that I haven’t tried yet. On my next playthrough I’m definitely trying to jump straight down from the back entrance of Blighttown. :::

::: spoiler DS2: I actually haven’t tried any glitches. Parry Walking looks interesting (and difficult), but I haven’t done it yet. This allows you to (with some caveats) to walk on air after parrying and then jumping on an enemy with specific timing.

Oh I also haven’t taught the Dragonrider about gravity yet. :::

::: spoiler DS3: Tree skip. To access the upper part of the Firelink Shrine early.
Other than that? I haven’t tried any glitches. :::

::: spoiler Bloodborne: Loot Duping. I used it for example to dupe Chunks in the DLC and Insight from Iosefka. You kill an enemy and then don’t loot them, instead you run to the loading line to the next area and repeatedly un- and reload the area. Wandering Nightmares need to be repeatedly killed for the dupe, for other loot it’s unnecessary.

A short skip in the forest: you jump by the nook with the crows over the scenery directly to the area with the cannon. I do this in higher NG Cycles.

A skip in Old Yharnam from the beginning to the end I could not pull off after an hour of trying. It was funny seeing that skip in GDQ and hearing the crowd cheering for the easy but impressive part and then not reacting to the extremely difficult jump over an invisible gap in out of bounds without visual cue.

I also haven’t tried the skip in the drawing yet. A skip based on enemy RNG wasn’t worth it (yet) and I also want fast access to the DLC through defeating Amelia. But I recently learned you also get access by defeating Rom. :::

::: spoiler Elden Ring: Jumping into Vulcano Manor proper, after being kidnapped by the Abductor Virgin. I’m actually a bit unsure, if this is even a Glitch since the jump is so easy. This gives you easy access to, at that point, rare upgrade materials. Also you can unlock the shortcut to Godskin Noble or you can just defeat the him outright.

Using the Shackles for unintended purposes: Revealing illusory walls, manipulating flamethrowers in dungeons, unlocking spirit springs. I also jumped over some unintended geometry like getting Regalia of Eochaid early or accessing the Ruins of Unte from the back.

I also teach some Bosses about the concept of gravity: Night's Cavalry, Death Rite Bird, haven’t taught Draconic Tree Sentinel yet. The Night's Cavalry in Caelid is easy to cheese, Death (Rite) Birds are easier to defeate head on with Sacred Blade (they really don’t like jumping of). You can also backstab crit the Bell-bearing Hunter in Cealid and yeet him of, but I haven’t done that yet.

I also failed to do Renna's Rise Skip. You can jump over the tip of the tree's into the tower and access Ainsel River early. This is glitchy Fromsoft platforming on torrent. Think of it like trying to perform DS3's Tree Skip perfectly back to back 3 times without pause. Very frustrating I wasted, ugh, over 2 hours of my life on it and then I see challenge runners do that trick on their first or second try.

Another super broken Glitch is again Force Quit Wrong Wrap. You can access the capital or Farum Azula, if you perform the glitch in the preview location, without defeating a single enemy. This glitch is a bit to broken for me, but I’m probably going to have fun with it in the future. :::

soulsspeedruns.com is a great resource for looking up glitches. ymfah and splee5556 YouTube channels are also worth a look.

More of an exploit than an outright glitch, but I loved how you can very easily kill Dragonrider in dark souls 2 by waiting for him to take a few steps, rolling next to him, and watching him nonchalantly fall to his death.

I did it every single playthrough and it's never not funny. Bless you DS2.

Divine Bridge Skip:

There is a teleporter in Elden Ring base game that leaves from an early game area (weeping peninsula) and goes to the top of a giant elevator in Leyndell. However, the elevator is inoperable from the top, and there's no legitimate way to get down safely, so it's supposed to be a sneak peek dead end.

If you equip a physick flask that makes you blow up after a delay, drink it, fall down the elevator shaft, and attack in midair right before exploding, the attack+explode resets your fall height value, and you can survive the drop. With this method you can access Leyndell much earlier than intended.

I learned to do it and got it a couple times in a row once, but it's not really worth doing. I still try it a few times every time I start a run, mostly because I like to run around Leyndell and grab some early items.

I hate grinding, so I'll soul dupe in DS1 during my ranfomiser play throughs. I've played the game likely a couple of dozen times the "old fashioned way" so it's just a time-saver really.

I think it's been patched at this point, but I've used one in the Opera House in Lies of P where you could the entire level if you stood at the top balcony on the right-hand side after killing one of these spider puppet thingies and did the fable art of the Azure Dragon Crescent Glaive. It would propel you quite a stretch forward and you could launch yourself over the railing and down where you need to be to move on to the boss.

I've watched a lot of speed runs for Sekiro, so I know most there are in the game and have tried a couple myself. Some of these I also just recently used in my current playthrough:

• Ogre skip: very hard to pull off and not really worth it imo because the skip is harder than the boss fight, but it's fun to attempt

• Bull skip: similarly difficult but a little easier to pull off. You can jump onto a roof that's not intended to be jumped on and jump around a corner onto a wall that leads into the boss arena of the bull. You can just move along the walls and outside the boss arena to just skip it entirely

• Ashina Castle "interior" skip: There's a sculptor's idol that leads inside the castle where you need to navigate through a couple rooms and fight a mini boss before you can move on to the fight against Genichiro. If you don't want that, you can instead turn back around to the window you climbed through to get to the sculptor's idol and jump onto the roof to the left to skip the entire interior section and skip ahead to the Genichiro fight

• Mist Noble/forest skip: Instead of navigating through the entire forest, you can skip that section entirely and glitch your way onto the building where Mist Noble chills. You need to jump onto a tree branch, off the branch onto the roof, and then you can just jump into the building through a hole in the roof. Pretty easy to pull off and saves quite some time

• Corrupted Monk skip: Only ever pulled it off once, but it's fun to do. If you enter the arena and stick to the left-hand walls of the arena, you can trigger her spawning without her aggroing you. If you position yourself very carefully behind her and through a number of fistfuls of ashe and some firecrackers, you can move her so far back towards you that you can jump off a nearby lantern and aerial deathblow her to skip the entire fight. Pretty fun

• Demon of Hatred skip: It's a little tricky to pull off but ultimately more fun for me than the actual fight itself (sorry DoH apologists :D). There's a watchtower towards the gate where you'd first move to after beating Gyoubu. You can jump onto it by double-jumping and ledge-hanging. After you did that, you can jump onto a nearby wall, once again move along the tops of the walls, and glitch DoH to fall out of bounds trying to chase you. It's quite funny to see since it's a giant monster leaping into its death :D The skip also works with Gyoubu, but it's a little harder for some reason, I seem to remember.

A glitch that's also quite notable for Sekiro is that float/dive/swim glitch (?) where you can skip a huge part of the game by just swimming through the air up to Fountainhead Palace. It's quite funny and easier seen as a video than explained so here's a link: https://youtu.be/xOAFBDKNVeU

There's also a couple skips I've seen and used in Bloodborne, but my phone is running out of juice, so I'll just leave it at that :D Cool question!

Mandatory death at duke's archives skip with the elevator, just because it's so fun to do. I also used infinite items glitches in Demon's Souls and DS1 after first run to get different builds easily (I love PvP)

I do the demon of hatred skip in sekiro, because tbh I don't like that boss as much as the other ones

I like getting up on Najka's back because it's easy and funny and she has no idea how to react

A short skip in the forest: you jump by thennook with the crows over the scenery directly to the area with the cannon. I do this in higher NG Cycles.

Sounds easy enough, 100℅ gonna attempt this next time! And the other shortcut glitches .I'm a goodie two shoes, only ones I've used are for inducing suicide :P on occasion

Not mentioned yet (BB):

• the hunter in research hall can be coaxed to jump if you shoot at him.form the floor above. (From the side not connected by the stairs)

*not suicide but near the top of the research hall in the enlarged head enemy with the IV stick can chase up the ladder and get stuck there.

Not useful other than to avoid fighting it.

I've had the occational sudden boss death, the death bird near castle sol expired after falling over the mini cliff next to the area it spawns... Idk if it was a one time thing...it's such a small cliff,/looked goofy af.
