      Honestly, this run isn't even that hard, Marco Yolo made it much harder on himself. If you use the albinauric staff you can get incredible damage with no int. Same thing with the prince of death's staff and rancorcall, which I'm guessing he didn't use because he forgot that spell exists. But it would trivialized a lot of fights, especially Radahn, Radagon and Elden Beast, since it has perfect tracking and very long range. Radahn can't dodge it, Radagon can't parry it and the Elden Beast can't outrun it. Hourah Loux would have also been easy with oracle bubbles since he's too stupid to not walk into them.

    You could have had a much easier time if you had used the albinauric staff, as arcane increases your resistance to holy damage, which Radagon and the Elden Beast both deal in spades. Plus is has a better scaling off of arcane than the prince of death's staff has off of faith. The prince of death's staff would have been better if you had used rancorcall, which would have also trivialized a lot of the fights since it has perfect tracking, near infinite range, deals good magic damage and can be gotten pretty early. So all in all, you made things a lot harder for yourself than it was necessary

    My first time beating the Elden Beast was pre 1.07. Before that patch rock sling, when cast in the left hand, had infinite range for one of its rocks. That bug really helped.

    nice video, also nice editing :). One quick tip for the commander nial fight in fort sol. Try using a bewitching branch. you can take control of his 2 knights and they completely go to town on the boss even if you do nothing and just wait until nial deals with the summons he will be left with a quarter HP or so.

    I've been doing a playthru with the Watchdog Staff and that thing is seriously underrated. Lot of fun. Not sure of it'll get me to the endgame, but it's been great so far. I highly recommend giving a shot. Same thing with the Beastclaw Warhammer. I used that on my last playthru and was surprised at how amazing it was. Both are great, fun weapons to use

    17:15 Yeah, that's just how commander dipshit fights if you backpedal. Makes him super predictable. Still hits like a truck if you mess up, but way easier than his close range moveset. If you're doing a casual run like I prefer you can also try Crystalian or Putrid Corpse summons to tank the knights at the start. Corpses are absurdly tanky and their moan has aggro drawing properties (no joke), and Crystalian laughs at anything that isn't blunt damage until she gets staggered, letting you pick off at least one knight while she's up and dishing out a small amount of damage while she's at it.

    Um, Acshtually at 8:57 when You were hitting that crab, Your character BOUNCED off of it which is a CLEAR sign of a STAFF hit, therefore it's PHYSICAL damage. I acknowledge this video as invalid.

    17:00 Niall is fun when the summons are dead, just a very long punish focused boss fight for me, kinda see why you, and others, wouldn't like it.

      What would "faith only" be? Incantations only would be a cakewalk but holy damage only would be absolute hell

      @@raptorxrise5386 the lowest Faith stat I believe is Astrologer at 7 so it would basically be this video with Faith instead of Intelligence. Adding holy damage only Incants sounds like a rough ride.
