Kind of interesting to see that the only 2 bosses the Armor of Thorns simply cannot handle for one reason or another, are the 2 fights you can summon Beatrice for!
@@vexcine the 4 kings stopped him and he decided to skip the only rolls thing. But that is also the 2nd boss you can summon Beatrice for! She’s kind of hidden before you go into the Abyss boss room.
@@liolevon2644 ah okay I've never beaten the game, still looking for the right build, the furthest I've gotten is to S&O and I accidently used a spell on Solaire. I, instead of going to the gargoyle bell guy and repenting for the sin, decided to start over as I made a couple mistakes and could use some tweaking. Started a miracle build and found the "Praise the Sun" Covenant, loving it so far
@Popstar Ahri fair enough! No doubt there is someone who did the whole thing but I’m pretty sure he decided not to because it’d take way too much time (and luck considering all 4 are gonna be on you) so I probably should rephrase it to two bosses he couldn’t/decided not to do XD
Imagine being a god that's trying to save your world and sacrificing yourself to prevent darkness from taking over, and then some spiky lad just runs you over with his body.
I don't know much about Dark Souls, but it was a fun video! I think you did an awesome job of explaining things, and I love your victory screams! Thanks for the reference, dude! That's awesome!
That means a TON coming from you! I started watching your Pokémon Challenges around when you first started them and they’re one of the biggest inspirations for me to put this whole series together. So thank you a thousand times over!
@@donkmemzz1630 not really, cheesing a boss means killing it in a way that makes the fight look trivial as opposed to getting some OP stuff early on. For example, to cheese Capra you get some firebombs, stand outside of his arena, point at a certain angle with the bow and throw a firebomb, causing him damage without engaging in the actual fight, it takes longer that way but still makes the fight trivial
In all seriousness, I'm reminded that the current edition of D&D actually has a Barbarian subclass devoted to throwing oneself at the enemy while wearing a suit of armor covered in spikes. It's called the Battlerager, a Dwarf-only subclass (albeit only in the Forgotten Realms) from the book Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide. It's obscure, because most people don't go for it and it was never reprinted like some other subclasses from that book. And it could probably use a buff if it ever were, to help it compete with other Barbarian builds. But it's one of the more unique ideas from this edition.
Did you ever feel like there was a video made just for you, because this is that video for me. I don't think I've ever been this hyped for a souls video since otsdarva's dark souls 2 all bosses no hit run. I couldn't stop smiling during the entire video. Thank you gamers weekend my...youtube friend.
@@_doop8257 yeah I finished it. There are many reasons I hate DS2 but some of my main reasons are, that adding more enemies isn't a compelling way to increase difficulty, hit boxes shouldn't trigger 6 feet away from the weapon, the map layout made 0 sense compared the to the masterpiece that was DS1 and the boss fights were incredibly uninspired for the most part.
Next challenge, can you beat DS1 with no interaction to any friendly NPC? ( include Solaire, The blacksmiths, Logan,.... ) but the no interaction challenge doesn't include that you can't kill that NPC
Been trying this one myself recently (I was doing no Pyromancy as well to spice it up), the runback to O and S was what made me give up lol. Running all the way from Firelink to Anor Londo just to die in five seconds was agony
i love how for dark souls enemies, getting hit with a stick is more likely to make you stagger than an entire beefy man in full plate spiky armour barrelling into you shoulder first
I was messing around with Kirk Armor NG+7 for fun and this is exactly what I have experienced from my testing. The Moonlight Butterfly being unkillable with only Kirk Armor was a surprise to me as I’m sure it was to you. Congrats on doing this man, your dedication and skill is quite impressive :)
Challenge idea: boss weapons and armor vs. boss basically, you have to use the weapons and armor related to the boss to fight it on NG+ e.g. Artorias' armor, the abyss greatsword, and the cleansing greatshield are the only things you can use to fight artorias. you have to use the demon great hammer against the asylum demon, etcetera. you don't have to use a specific catalyst if the boss has spells related to it, but you can only use the spells related to it e.g. gravelord sword dance and gravelord greatsword dance against nito
@@ГалущакОлександр For the two you pointed out, Ceaseless doesn't need a weapon to die, and for Centipede, the Demon Firesage is the nearest boss with a weapon associated with it, so the Demon Catalyst can be used for centipede.
@@khirman1 Well, discharge nonetheless needs a few hits before he falls down. And there's also four kings, pinwheel and bed of chaos, none of which have a weapon directly related to them.
@@ГалущакОлександр Fists are allowed for discharge, Four Kings are related to Artorias so his weapons are allowed, Pinwheel is related to Nito so Nito's weapons are allowed, and the Bed of Chaos is related to both Quelaag and the Demon Firesage so their weapons are allowed.
This is some extreme mental distress. You should stream it lol. I think people would love to see your live reactions and insightful comments about the game. Amazing content 😄👍
This is amazing on so many levels. The patience, the endurance and the pure will not to give up. But something else equally great was the knowledge of the game's mechanics and its items. Knowing which rings to switch, which shields and that deep understanding of how each boss works. Incredible. You should be very proud of this insanity!
This is such a tedious challenge and I have really bad anxiety. Watched for about 10 minutes and was having anxiety attacks lmfao. What a challenge! Couldn't even finish the video but threw a like and sub at ya. Its the least I could do after watching you put yourself through that HORROR!!!
Almost as much pain and suffering as those bosses felt being given death by a thousand cuts. Just twenty to forty minutes of being stabbed by metal spikes until you finally succumb.
just did the math on how much you've grown since the last video, and it is utterly absurd. with rounding to 30k subs, from 243, this channel has grown by 12345.68%. most i have ever seen a channel grow in such a short time
i dont normally comment on videos very much, but hopefully this helps a little bit with the algorithm or w/e. this video obviously took a lot of time and effort. Good job
The virgin: We cant beat the 4 Kings video is over or wont be made. VS The Chad: Its possible but fuck this shit lets move on. I certainly remembered to like this video
I'm so glad you finally managed to push through and complete this one dude! As a total novice soul challenger myself, I have a couple of suggestions for "Easy" runs in case you just want to take a load off. I like doing a style of run where you select only one stat, and up until it is maxed out you may not level up anything else. So far I've only done this in Ds3, but man is it a BLAST to destroy a massive boss in 8 hits in a 99 Strength run. If you want to go straight into another insane however, Ymfah recently did a really interesting "No talking" run, where he had to complete Ds2 without talking to any npc. Meaning no leveling, no estus, no buying, no repairing, no upgrading, no nothing. He is planning on No Talking the series as well it seems, but that's no reason you can't put your hat in the ring as well. If you need any run ideas, he is totally the way to go for great ideas!
YO i got that Mah-Dry-Bread reference after the pinwheel fight! So which mask did pinwheel drop???? or at least thats the only other place i have seen that joke...
Even Sisyphus would think this task to be insane, and seeing your reaction after each boss was just golden, congratulations man I hope channel last forever
Congratz my man! I did the bow challenge after you suggested ut as a starting point and i was surprised how doable it was. Only a few roadblocks and manus (the boss ive only really cheesed or fought with a huge shield up to this point) wasnt one of them
I love how he cuts to the livestream and you see that contrast from speaking calmly about his run to *"LETS FUCKING GOOOOO! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"*
You've been working at this so insanely long, it's been a joy to follow your attempts over such a long period of time. I got a big smile seeing this video uploaded.
I absolutely fell in love with your content from the first dark souls challenge video man! So happy to see you upping the ante and making a name for yourself as another legend amongst the challenge runners of Dark Souls. Don't be afraid to dip your toe into modded challenges. Something like a boss randomizer with the sorcery or miracle only run would be so interesting!

Would be fun to see a ds2 Challenge, possibly The butterfly outfit only as it poisons The Bosses and enemies slowly, it would basically be this run but...even more pain
if i remember correctly a lot of bosses have poison immunity-i can’t remember how many but i think its more than the 2-3 in the pyro only run, so idk how good of a video that would be
@@tinpan6052 that would be interesting... i think ds2 offers some more interesting challenges, with all the unique items and the content for the 3 DLCs.
@@jasdeepsadam6399 lets hope he never does a hard Challenge and tries The poison DLC, i cant imagine how Much time he could spend on the Dragon boss honestly
I know this is super late, but maybe this is what you're looking for? ua-cam.com/video/ds_J81n5T0k/v-deo.html It's a bit of a long watch at about 1 hour, but there's some hilarious dry humor and puns in there.
just gonna Say this. if anything will ever get me to learn to play Dark Souls, it's challenge runs. but THIS challenge run might be the one i may never forget if any thusfar. here i am, struggling on a DS2 build to try and just NG with and my issue is I feel so wrong without ranged that most melee builds don't even feel right to me. tried fists AND Spear and i just have issues with melee weapon reaction on reach, which has me trying to make a Crossbow build work instead. and Here YOU are in Ds1 Remastered actually succeeding on so much of the NG+ with armor of frikkin thorns. your effort and tenacity for a task like this blew me away.
Oh man, I have so many puns for this video. Here goes: They see me rollin'. They hatin' Looks like this roll was a natural 20 Instead of a bonfire, I imagine your character rests in a bedroll Mmm, rolls. Delicious Fantastic run, by the way.
Now do it on NG+6... In all seriousness though, this was fucking insane. The amount of patience and sheer willpower you have is actually ridiculous. Good job!
I love these videos and I watch them often (when i go to sleep,when i eat alone...) for a very long time and every time I watch this one Im constantly asking “why”
Came back here because I read an article talking about a Twitch streamer/Tiktok girl that beat Quelaaq like this. The video went viral. Meanwhile this chad beats the whole game like this in NG+ and nobody gives a shit. It's because he isn't a girl with a controller. I fucking hate people.
I’m recording a challenge run myself right now for my gaming channel and, watching through the playlist, this is giving me inspiration, glad to see your hard work paying off! 46 min boss fight deserves a subscribe!
What mask did you pick up? I know I watched your stream and all, but still. Edit: 9:36 Oh, that’s weird. Probably should have watched the video before commenting.
It scared me a lot watching you go more insane (don’t know how to write this part correctly) after each beaten boss lmao When I saw you fight against O&S I thought “That’s where the run ends definitely” But you did it! Awesome job you’ve done there and awesome video too! You are truly an unstoppable machine
my heart sank when the video closed in on four kings, your sanity needs a rest my friend. amazing video and props to you as im afraid to do even a magic playthrough never mind something this mad
An Italian souls streamer/youtuber, Sabaku, made a run that I found interesting: item randomizer mod, use what you see: if you see an item, you have to go and pick it up, unequip what you had and equip the new one. Not nearly as difficult as this one, but cool and definitely more relaxing, and I bet you need to relax
I just found your channel, and I gotta say, I'm impressed. For a relatively small youtuber, your video quality and montage is top notch, and you are really good at Souls games as well! Keep up the good work.
I want to see an item only run, firebombs, throwing knives, dung pies, etc for damage. For an added challenge no estus, you have to use humanity, divine blessings, etc to heal.
Watching this video again and for the second time I’m laughing and caught off guard by the MahDryBread Pokémon Challenge Fossil gag😂. Love both you twos vids
Oh thank Gwyn. Now I don't have to do this.

if i remember correctly a lot of bosses have poison immunity-i can’t remember how many but i think its more than the 2-3 in the pyro only run, so idk how good of a video that would be
@@jasdeepsadam6399 Mmm, true, perhaps a companion only run instead?
@@tinpan6052 that would be interesting... i think ds2 offers some more interesting challenges, with all the unique items and the content for the 3 DLCs.
@@jasdeepsadam6399 lets hope he never does a hard Challenge and tries The poison DLC, i cant imagine how Much time he could spend on the Dragon boss honestly
I know this is super late, but maybe this is what you're looking for? ua-cam.com/video/ds_J81n5T0k/v-deo.html It's a bit of a long watch at about 1 hour, but there's some hilarious dry humor and puns in there.
just gonna Say this. if anything will ever get me to learn to play Dark Souls, it's challenge runs. but THIS challenge run might be the one i may never forget if any thusfar.
here i am, struggling on a DS2 build to try and just NG with and my issue is I feel so wrong without ranged that most melee builds don't even feel right to me. tried fists AND Spear and i just have issues with melee weapon reaction on reach, which has me trying to make a Crossbow build work instead.
and Here YOU are in Ds1 Remastered actually succeeding on so much of the NG+ with armor of frikkin thorns. your effort and tenacity for a task like this blew me away.
I can't wait for the "no hit no bonfire no weapon only Kirk armor run"
That MDB reference was perfect. You earned my subscription
Oh man, I have so many puns for this video. Here goes:
They see me rollin'. They hatin'
Looks like this roll was a natural 20
Instead of a bonfire, I imagine your character rests in a bedroll
Mmm, rolls. Delicious
Fantastic run, by the way.
You mean fantastic roll
You mean fantastic roll
What a tROLL
Nobody stole his sweetroll
Please, show us at least the last 10 seconds of each fight at normal speed, it is not boring, we're here for it. Keep up the good work
Well that was a journey! Some absolute Ymfah/Jrose11 energy there, good job my man!
Now do it on NG+6...
In all seriousness though, this was fucking insane. The amount of patience and sheer willpower you have is actually ridiculous. Good job!
What's next? I suggest KillPatches% or FourKings% (no lordvessel)
I love these videos and I watch them often (when i go to sleep,when i eat alone...) for a very long time and every time I watch this one Im constantly asking “why”
Came back here because I read an article talking about a Twitch streamer/Tiktok girl that beat Quelaaq like this. The video went viral. Meanwhile this chad beats the whole game like this in NG+ and nobody gives a shit. It's because he isn't a girl with a controller. I fucking hate people.
That Battleblock Theater track in a Dark Souls video is a YES
it's so nice to see some genuine dark souls content, i haven't seen this kind of entertainment since ymfah was in his ds1 grind
I’m recording a challenge run myself right now for my gaming channel and, watching through the playlist, this is giving me inspiration, glad to see your hard work paying off! 46 min boss fight deserves a subscribe!
change suggestion: soul level 1 but no pyromancies
Eh, the giants hammer in anor londo still makes SL1 no pyro somewhat easy
reinforced club and giants hammer make the game a joke
the sheer amount of time spent in these boss areas is a scary concept to grasp
"Joestar, because i know a unique tactic called running away"
HAHAHAHA

What mask did you pick up? I know I watched your stream and all, but still.
Edit: 9:36 Oh, that’s weird. Probably should have watched the video before commenting.
Hey, the comment is good for the algorithm.
Haha , you should have ask about what mask did the pinwheel drop on the first run
It scared me a lot watching you go more insane (don’t know how to write this part correctly) after each beaten boss lmao
When I saw you fight against O&S I thought “That’s where the run ends definitely”
But you did it! Awesome job you’ve done there and awesome video too!
You are truly an unstoppable machine
Force miracle allows you to break Priscilla's poise without damage her.
Would that work on Artorias's buff as well?
my heart sank when the video closed in on four kings, your sanity needs a rest my friend. amazing video and props to you as im afraid to do even a magic playthrough never mind something this mad
An Italian souls streamer/youtuber, Sabaku, made a run that I found interesting: item randomizer mod, use what you see: if you see an item, you have to go and pick it up, unequip what you had and equip the new one. Not nearly as difficult as this one, but cool and definitely more relaxing, and I bet you need to relax
I just found your channel, and I gotta say, I'm impressed. For a relatively small youtuber, your video quality and montage is top notch, and you are really good at Souls games as well! Keep up the good work.
I want to see an item only run, firebombs, throwing knives, dung pies, etc for damage. For an added challenge no estus, you have to use humanity, divine blessings, etc to heal.
Watching this video again and for the second time I’m laughing and caught off guard by the MahDryBread Pokémon Challenge Fossil gag😂. Love both you twos vids
What did pinwheel drop?
So what sent you to the afterlife?
Every boss: some crazy guy being a massive prick.
