According to the Ymfah "Top Gear" youtube video, you only need 1000 health to survive that forest of fallen giants jump. You don't even need the cat ring.
@@yourdad5799 Really? Are you on PC or console? My gf noticed that she was able to do it on the PS version of DS2. We both jumped from the lower platform.
Ds2 is the last souls game I played because I let everyone fill my head with negative reviews. After playing it, I realized people just don’t understand how the game works. It’s actually really fun
Your channel is so underrated. I can't find anything like it anywhere else for any other souls games. Id kill for elden ring content like this from you
I happen to find your videos one day just looking at dark souls 2 videos. I’m surprised people still play this game, just finished and run and man watching you videos really made me get back into this game again. It was the first Dark souls I played before actually playing all the other ones.
Hey Yaz, I’ve tried out a bone fist build/playthrough in DS2 SOTFS and it’s been super addicting to do and it’s all thanks to your inspiration from your bone fist video
bro your videos made me like this game so much especially the Rapier build I almost quit this game but this video taught me a lot about the game, and that sword made me discover a whole lot about it, and now this game is my fav. keep going with ur top notch builds bro gl.
8:15 Actually, Dark Weapon does slightly more damage than GMW (against Rotten). I did some testing and on a normal Greatsword, with the rolling R1 attack and RTSR, GMW did 1402, whereas Dark Weapon did 1410. This is because GMW is much weaker than DW/RW/SB/CMW and is actually weaker than an Aromatic Ooze (which did 1405 against Rotten if you're wondering).
2:28 you can actually survive it pretty easily with cat ring if you jump 1 level lower from the spot you are on if i recall, you even could survive it without the ring if you have around 13-15 vig with health ring and blue seal (and being butt naked of cource)
I gotta play ds2 again, keep finding out about so much gear I completely missed out on my two or so runs of it. Might try to go for this weapon, cool stuff.
Great video! I am amazed that this weapon does this MUCH damage,I can’t recall if it was nerfed more than once, but it was nerfed at the very least once, I remember the times when you could one shot people with this thing, fun times!
I'm late to responding I'm so sorry 😭 the intro song is The Resistance - Skillet & I appreciate it homie, you can never be late, watch whenever you have the time :)
@@Yazzmania nah you're Good man ❤️ I know you don't have that much time to make videos,work and read all the comments,etc 👍and It doesn't matter when you respond , it matters that you did 💯
i could be wrong but at 1:40 i swear you can climb on the green fallen tree by the bottom of the left of the scaffolds and you can jump across and reach it that way
I always wanted to use this in a run but never got to it because I was usually invested in another weapon by the point of reaching it. I love how interesting and unique some of ds2's weapons are. I have only heard of this thing being used for status builds, as the extra hits supposedly apply status as well.
Ayyy the legends posted i wanted to thank ya for getting me from hating this game to finishing the main game and i have the dlcs now love your vids man u are very entertaining much love
If I remember correctly, if you're wearing no armor and have at least 10 VGR then you can just BARELY survive that jump without the cat ring for that early fragrant branch (After testing I was only half right, 10 VGR works only with both Blue Seal and Life Ring equipped. 12 VGR works with just Blue Seal, and 13 VGR works with nothing.) Hope the info helps out in a future build, much love!
Cat Ring, Life Ring and Blue Seal will help survive the fall for the fragrant branch of yore. Life Ring should be in a chest behind a door in the same room as the Pharros contraption underneath the ballista gank. To Open the door, just hit it a few times and an enemy should open it I do this every run
Just tried this weapon for my dex build today and holy shit this thing is godly. The low AR is really deceptive because the R2 does so much damage it can one shot dlc enemies lmao.
I have three questions. Of all the builds you've covered, do you have a favourite? Which is the most powerful? And which has the best boss 1-shot potential?
my favorite would either be the Bone fists, Hexes, and the Sir Alonne Katana! most powerful would either be Hexes with Climax or Powerstance Sacred Chime Hammer 1 shot potential is once again either Hexes or Sacred Chime hammer, as well as the Power stance Smelter Swords!
@Yazzmania awesome! Thanks :D I always run katanas on my first playthrough of a souls game, but I never got the dlc for ds2. I'm very keen to play with the alonne sword when I jump back in!
Yaz!! Love your content as always!! Me and my buddy have a band called ALDIA, thought you might like the reference lol but! My bandmate (we're a duo) has a solo project hes had for YEARS called Team Jacob so anytime you make the TJ reference i send him the vid, ds2 is his favorite souls game too lol just wanted to say thank you for making such dope content brotha, keep it up!! 🖤
When you tried to make the jump for fragrant branch of yore, why you didn’t take the life ring in the room where 5 crossbows trap ? Because with it and the cat ring i think you might be able to make the jump
much love bro thank you! yes I heard from some of y'all that the ascension mod is tough so I definitely wanna do a video on it and see how it is In comparison to the seeker of fire mod!
Recently just watched your sacred chime hammer vid and now that's really all I've been using.Only problem is that when I two hand it I be messing up the jump attack with the unique skill😂
Favorite movie of all time?
I'm tryna binge some movies hehe
Fight Club
What up
John wick
Barbie
didn't watch alotta movies but i really liked blade runner 2049
I've never even heard of this Halberd, this is why your an actual legend
Same bro I'm going to pick it up for my NG+3 new run
bro is keeping DS2 alive
According to the Ymfah "Top Gear" youtube video, you only need 1000 health to survive that forest of fallen giants jump. You don't even need the cat ring.
Bottom gear you mean
This is true. I never get the cat ring. 22VIT is enough for that and the Gutter
Tried it recently and it took around 1500 health to survive.
@@locklear308 I did it today and 1000 was enough. Did you jump from the first or second floor on the wooden scafold thing?
@@yourdad5799 Really? Are you on PC or console? My gf noticed that she was able to do it on the PS version of DS2.
We both jumped from the lower platform.
Cant belive I made it into a video lmao
2 comments too, Goated

Such an intense intro, it was a fucken flashbang when homie came through with such a calm and velvety voice
lmaooo

We missed you KING

We making it out of Majula with this one!
Your channel is so underrated. I can't find anything like it anywhere else for any other souls games. Id kill for elden ring content like this from you
This thing completely dominated PvP in og ds2 for some time before it got nerfed
I remember recommending you helix and double caestus in your dragon tooth vid and you made double caestus build next vid, good to see the helix too

Giant Lord: You spin me right round, baby, right round, like a record baby.
LOOL
Bro, that fall at 14:25… I laughed too hard at that… it’s fucking classic dark souls!

Bro idk why but you are great inspiration for me thanks!
my guy that means a lot I appreciate it! Wish you all the best bro
Oh yea my favorite ds youtuber uploaded what is undoubtedly to be an absolute banger of a video. Gotta love it
thank you for the video, the presentation of the content is at the highest level, grateful for the efforts
2:05 the way he skedaddles is so funny
Yeaaa that is the deal. One of my favourite weapons to use!! Nice job Yazmania!)
Great Grym Hanmer is a lit weapon, gotta try it out
Great video! I am amazed that this weapon does this MUCH damage,I can’t recall if it was nerfed more than once, but it was nerfed at the very least once, I remember the times when you could one shot people with this thing, fun times!
It’s a great day for some ds2
I am a little late but this is a great Video as usual Yaz , I am very excited for the next one ❤️🔥 (and whats the song at the intro?)
I'm late to responding I'm so sorry 😭 the intro song is The Resistance - Skillet
& I appreciate it homie, you can never be late, watch whenever you have the time :)
@@Yazzmania nah you're Good man ❤️ I know you don't have that much time to make videos,work and read all the comments,etc 👍and It doesn't matter when you respond , it matters that you did 💯
now this is the one i have been waiting for
It would be cool to see a Reeve’s and Orma’s Greatshield run.
Another great vid, as usual
I know I've asked a few times, but Gyrm Great Hammer is a really fun one and I'd love to see you try it in a vid
Jeez your voice is soo smooth bro. What mic do you use??
haha thank you bro, I have the razer seiren mini!
Another video, another great time for me. Keep it up yaz
aye much love bro welcome back! appreciate you as always ❤
i could be wrong but at 1:40 i swear you can climb on the green fallen tree by the bottom of the left of the scaffolds and you can jump across and reach it that way
nah you're right haha, I was informed by a couple of y'all in the comments that it's possible
my dumbass didn't know I had to go a level lower
Finally. Another yazmania ds2 video
I always wanted to use this in a run but never got to it because I was usually invested in another weapon by the point of reaching it. I love how interesting and unique some of ds2's weapons are. I have only heard of this thing being used for status builds, as the extra hits supposedly apply status as well.
Never knew about this. Very powerful :))
Terry making a guest appearance is amazing, love that goob
Love to see new video from you when I open youtube
Holly hell I loved ds2 and haven't played in years I remember this weapon being a monster
Congrats on 25k dude, i know for a fact that one day you gon reach 100k subs fr
ayye much love bro I appreciate it! hopefully one day we get 100k, and I hope we make it there together! ❤
Ayyy the legends posted i wanted to thank ya for getting me from hating this game to finishing the main game and i have the dlcs now love your vids man u are very entertaining much love

Hello from Russia, обожаю твои видео, каждый вечер захожу на ютуб, чтобы проверить, появился ли новый видеоролик, успехов тебе бро! :)
Love this song on start and gameplay as vell

thanks for the info! I wasn't sure but thanks to you and many others I can be rest assured for the next time I wanna do it :)
Love your vids can't wate for next uplode
Great vid as always bröther. Also begging for Drakewing UGS playthru
This makes my day, Yaz. You, Bugsy and the disgusting amount of damage you do always cheers me up!
Cat Ring, Life Ring and Blue Seal will help survive the fall for the fragrant branch of yore. Life Ring should be in a chest behind a door in the same room as the Pharros contraption underneath the ballista gank.

Skillet in the intro!!! Love you, Yaz!!!
great video as usual
Best run idea ever. You are only able to use any items, weapons, etc. from the five daughters of manus. Bro that run would be crazy
HAHAHAHA THAT INTRO WAS SO CLEAN HOOLYYYYY
Missed u bro love ur content
Yo Yaz do you think we could get some DS2 tier lists from you like a area tier list, boss tier list NPC boss weapons would love to see that
haven't seen a vid of you in my sub box for ages, really thought you quit
are you strictly ds2? would love to see u do a ds3 run.
He knows ds2 in n out this why we got so many cool videos in a relative short times
ngl DS2 might be my fav , playing ds3 rn and it’s not hitting like this
Both are bangers tbh but I agree with you
@@PierreLucSex factuals
yazmania and illusory wall uploading at the same time? i have been blessed
Can you try the blue fame?
I have three questions. Of all the builds you've covered, do you have a favourite? Which is the most powerful? And which has the best boss 1-shot potential?
my favorite would either be the Bone fists, Hexes, and the Sir Alonne Katana!

DankSun Gwyndolin sent me. Nice content!
Bro carrying the ds2 community. Peak souls 2 along with such beautiful Yazmania never ceases to amaze me
Intro song is called ‘The Resistance’ by Skillet. Glad I could be of assistance ;)
thanks for that :)
also, resistance - assistance, was that rhyme intentional ? 😂
@@Yazzmania oh omg i did not realise tht lol
I have thousands of hours in the game, never before have I see this weapon. It's like it came straight out of Hellpoint!
Iirc the tip comes out even on light attacks when powerstanced. Absolute menace.
I love your videos! Can you do more builds in the seeker of fire mod? I like so much the mod
i can’t even remember if i ever got this halberd. time to fire up ds2 and check my inventory lol
ds1 run would be cool, i just wanna know how you deal with blighttown. great video man!
Is ds2 the only game in series, where if you hit with a handle of halbert (too close to enemy) it deals less dmg than if you hit with full length?
not sure haha, that's a good question and i'm curious to know the answer as well lol
Yaz!! Love your content as always!! Me and my buddy have a band called ALDIA, thought you might like the reference lol but! My bandmate (we're a duo) has a solo project hes had for YEARS called Team Jacob so anytime you make the TJ reference i send him the vid, ds2 is his favorite souls game too lol just wanted to say thank you for making such dope content brotha, keep it up!! 🖤
haha I love it!! wish you both the best!! ♥ much love bro fr :)
@Yazzmania thank you so much bro!!! ❤️❤️
No idea how I ended up on the DS2 side of youtube but your videos are great :)
will you make more video on the mod? it was realy fun
Im thinking about it haha!
Could you do a video with the Black Night Greatsword? ur vids are great man, keep it up 💪
I don’t know if this works in DS2 but I know it works in DS3. But you can charge sacred oath by holding down the button to cast and it’ll last longer
I am in love with its moveset🤩🤩
Hell yeha my bois back 😂❤
WHOO, that was satisfying, to see someone able to just SNAP the game open over their leg like a twig! :D
When you tried to make the jump for fragrant branch of yore, why you didn’t take the life ring in the room where 5 crossbows trap ?
Because with it and the cat ring i think you might be able to make the jump
My man's single-handedly carrying ds2 content
Love the Terry Fox reference 💪🏻
One of my favorite athletes 🙏🏽
Broski that "SAMURAI FIGHTU 🗣️🔥🔥🗣️" went fkin hard
good luck pro❤
hey yaz how i can change the speddo to normal on 1.5x ?
Use cheat engine! I did a short tutorial in my Ice rapier video, if you watch the vid I show you how to do it!
Dude, great video as always.
Did you try the ascended mod for ds2? it's hard af, but it would be an amazing video.
much love bro thank you! yes I heard from some of y'all that the ascension mod is tough so I definitely wanna do a video on it and see how it is In comparison to the seeker of fire mod!
Yazmania, are you going to do return to Drangleic in February?
Honestly I have no idea what that is lmao, would you be so kind to inform me ?
New Yaz vid dropped! HYPE!
Alr not the mastodon halbert again, but still happy to see ur video!
I'll get to it eventually haha, thanks for being patient homie ❤
@@Yazzmania yaaay, will be looking forward to that💪🏻
Recently just watched your sacred chime hammer vid and now that's really all I've been using.Only problem is that when I two hand it I be messing up the jump attack with the unique skill😂
those damage numbers nice
This thing looks CRAZY good, a halberd+ a spear moveset? It's completely bonkers with some counter damage added into the mix
I came here to say one thing and one thing only. W pfp 💚
