Thank you SO MUCH to all you Super Thanks-ers and Channel Members out there!!! You enable this channel to keep growing, and keep allowing me to ramp up both the quality and quantity of the content we're putting out - You're the true heroes, thank you!!!!!
Some tips: the beast repellent torch keeps basilisk from attacking you. Also, if you start at the grace outside fia's chamber and head along the upper roots, you can get above the cave with the runebear. There is a hole in the ground that gets you into the cave from the top and you can fight the bear from a high ledge where it can't reach you
I’m an old slow once in a while gamer. My son bought me Eldon Ring for my PS4 as birthday gift a few months ago. After 10 hours of misery, I told my son to return it, or give it to someone else because I was ,done. Then my boy told me to watch this English guy’s videos on UA-cam. Man I’m 300 hours into this and I don’t want it to End. Dom you helped make this one of the best game experiences I’ve ever had. Again, I’m old and slow. It takes me 30+ try’s to kill most bosses. I can’t run on them damned branches for the life of me, or torrent. But with your exquisite guidance, I’m truly enjoying this adventure. You somehow make the viewer think “ OK, I got this”. Congrats man on this vocation. I can tell you love it, and that really broadcasts throughout your work. You truly are creating art, and I’m addicted. From now on I will only play the games you guide me through. God Bless man.
You can reach this area without fighting the twin gargoyles. If you activate the secret area behind Mogh in the Subterranean Shunning Grounds, and make your way down to the bottom of that crazy area with the pixel perfect jumps, that brings you out to the upper part of the depths, and you can work your way down.
That’s how I got there. Finished the shunning grounds and made my way there, and was just like “well, guess I’m exploring this place now.” Which was fine, because it wound up being one of my favorite spots in the game.
Are u talking about the invisible wall behind a chest u could hit and it leads to the roots located in that room of that 3 fingers ugly skin looking door??
@@kirkwright8954 Yea, that's how I came across the roots.. Wasn't till later that I found the other route (lol Root.. Route lol) and I had also made the roots my home for quit sum time after stumbling across the secret route. I'm Grooout!!! Lol
Mate I usually can't stand gaming channels with any banter or fun "filler" content and so forth, so I usually opt for guides by random unknown creators that have little to no narration and get directly to the point. But for some reason your content really does it for me. Your commentary is super charming and delightful, your excitement and enthusiasm for uncovering the fun little known elements of a game is infectious, and your overall attitude towards gaming - and as a result, the manner in which you deliver your videos just makes for a very pleasant, entertaining "real" experience. It's so far removed from the arrogance and obnoxious superiority attitudes that the large majority of gaming channels adopt, which makes them entirely unwatchable for me. Thanks for being the rare, humble, and - most importantly, helpful - diamond, in a market normally saturated by intolerable douchebaggery. My subscription to your channel is well over due. Keep it up mate, i hope nothing but good things come your way.
Just a note that the "firebreathing statues" are actually gargoyle boss enemies that have had their wings and legs chopped off. Take a closer look at the models.
@@alexandervowles3518 I can't make up my mind which reply to this post (or OP's post itself) is the most disturbing. I'm incredibly obsessed with this game, but I have gotten to the point where I have died SO MUCH and lost so many runes, that I kinda rush through areas rather than truly taking my time. I really want to appreciate and experience the beauty, and the horror, and the sadness, and the happiness this game has to offer, because there's a lot of each. I am just so incredibly tired of going through an entire area, looting half of it, not finding a grace, and dying. I love this game but getting stuck in that pattern really does this game a disservice. Btw, I know I just need to "get gud", but my brain doesn't work well enough to be a beast at this game, unfortunately. Severe ADHD and anxiety, for the win! Sorry for the rant. I'm sure nobody has made it this far, and I'm just talking to myself. Le sigh... Good times. Have a good night, everyone!
FYI that golden land ash of war will reach anything you can target. It's great for taking out enemies at a distance. From what I can tell it has the best range of any weapon in the game.
Quick tip: there is a mausoleum in this area, sort of in the opposite direction from where you fight the crucible knight - if you "down" it, all the spectral knights will vanish and you'll be able to explore the area a lot easier! So I recommend making the mausoleum a priority. 👍🏻
Fun tip: if you run up the tree roots and gallop straight by the greatbow wielding Mausoleum Knights, you can jump to the Mausoleum on Torrent and take it down by hitting off a few of the white chunks of whatever that shit is sticking to it. This will knock the Mausoleum over AND despawn all of the Mausoleum Soldiers in the entire area, which makes everything much easier.
I spent 90 hours on my first playthrough, in which I found all but two sub areas. I’ve since started 3 other runs, that are at various stages of the game. And yet, I still watch this series. Thanks Dom for your amazing personality, and the hard work you’ve done for all of us :)
Little tip: you can actually approach the rune bear from above later, towards the end of the area near Fia. And then you can just cheese it with arrows or spells from atop the cliff
@@acalvillo1990 yeah they suck u can try tk run them into one of the fire statues and get them to take some good damage. Requires really difficult timing.
So I just did this section thanks to this guide. At 10:44 if you drop down northeast from here you find a smithing stone 7 on a corpse. Also from the spirit spring that you use to get up here jump of the cliff nearby. Then head south/southeast. There’s a cave with a runebear and a lot of goodies inside.
There is also a small plateau to the south of the boss arena. You can reach it over a branch and while I don't remember if there was anything important to pick up, it allows you to drop down into the cave with the runebear and cheese him from a ledge :)
Something missed here (besides the little plateau others have noted), or maybe it's normal and I just didn't realise until I was here..taking down the mausoleum will remove all of the spectral enemies in the area, leaving it nice and peaceful. There's also another b*stard of a rune bear napping just down in that area in a little cave. Loving the channel; these vids have just been the best accompaniment to my playthrough. Keep up the stellar work mate, and all the best for your much deserved success going forward.
Friendly reminder that the Beast Repellent Torch works great against the Basilisk enemies! You can also access Deeproot Depths through Leyndell's sewer system, there are two secret walls across from the Frenzied Flame Proscription, one leads to a chest containing a Rune Arc, and the second one is behind the Rune Arc chest leading to the Deeproot Depths. As a side note you can get all the way to Astel without ever interacting with Ranni and starting her questline.
Such a small map and yet I missed so much. I have to head back here ASAP and get me some Rune Arcs. I was watching your video on the DLC when I randomly decided to watch this one. My mouth dropped open when I realized how much I missed.
10:07 the drop rate here seem to be higher than usual, so a good place to farm Mausoleum gear _before_ you bring down the walking Mausoleum and cause the knights to permanently despawn.
Rune bears. Blinking Rune bears. I cheesed these ones using Loretta’s bow spell and just staying out of aggro range as I hate them. Squishy spell blade.
Actually there's a way to access the area without fighting the Valiant Gargoyle pair. You can access from the Frenzied Flame Proscription grace. Nearby where Hyetta stands at the end of her quest, there's an illusory wall with a chest inside. Then, behind that chest is another illusory wall that leads to Deeproot Depths. This is the more efficient way simply because there is a grace site and items you cannot access if you came in using the coffin.
@@tsunamiaz2101 you dont need to progress Hyetta's quest to get this access. She's merely used as a reference for the rough location of the illusory wall IF you had progessed her quest.
YES! I was so excited today because I was hoping you'd upload a guide for this area and you did! I love this channel so much. Amazing work and keep it up 😀
to the right of the sog before fia you can platform across to a small area where there is a giant hole in the ground you can platform down. at the bottom is a somber 7 which is directly above the rune bear you fought earlier. You can then cheese the rune bear if you want.
Thanks so much for this video Dom! I was trying to figure out how to reach that hidden cave. You were absolutely right about how fun it was to go through there and kill all those ants. Can't wait to see more of your awesome Elden Ring videos man!
Damn! You missed *ALOT* just by not doing Ranni's questline. I didn't realize it was a prerequisite for Fia's. Sans spoilers there's a whole armor + weapon set, a dress, two legendary incants., and a Great Rune for the ending. You just saved my Journey 3 by letting me know, i want to experience the Death Rune ending this go around and if i skipped Ranni's quest, i would've been piiiiisssssed.
The bug with the rune bear falling through the ground happened to me in the first area you showed in the last video! I haven't seen it with this one though.
If your like me and avoid rune bears as often as possible, you can cheese that first one if you drop down through the hole at the top of the waterfall and use ranged attacks
In the part where Dom goes over the spirit spring to jump up to the roof of a building to get arteria leaves, there is a golden centipede on the very bottom part of the building. Hope this helps anyone.
I love Dom and his channel But I definitely recommend completing all the subs to Fia's and D's quest line before going into her arena. You miss out on a legendary boss and item that changes the game ending plus a lot of lore and armor. When I got to this area I went back and did everything that led up to interacting with Fia. Definitely worth it
Dom, you are by far one of my favorite Elden Ring creators! Your sincerity and gratitude shines through with every post.....and not to mention that wit.....thank you good sir! Cheers from Colorado! Please hit me up if you're ever my way so I can buy you a pint and thank you in person!
Nice one Dom. I particularly enjoyed tackling hte deeproot depths and concluding Fia's quest. I however, missed out on getting the knights armor pieces as I first took down the mausoleum and that made all the knights disappear.
Golden land is actually one of the best ash of war. You can clear lots of enemies around you with the slam and hit enemies from a distance by locking on. Plus it staggers so well
Super awesome tip for those who have the faith investment to pull it off. Walk into that giant cave full of ants, jump off the ledge, and halfway down use Placidusax's Ruin. It is so satisfying
I'll have to go back and grab those ashes!! 😅Ironically that Crucible Knight was the easiest one out of them all for me. I think the two CK's that were in the heros grave were the hardest ones to fight for me. I'm also glad I got a chance to see the boss fight for this area before actually walking in to that lol I would've been soo unprepared for 5 bosses lol. I'll have to go back and talk to ranni or something because I still have yet to retrieve that statue for her. There are alot of quest lines I royally fucked up during this initial playthrough. At least I'll know for next run through to take my time and really research each quest line. I already messed up Volcano Manor because I killed Rykard before the last red envelope.
I was scratching my head as to where you were at 8:00 when you said all the way to the north west, when you actually are all the way to the south west 😅 took me a minute to figure out where you were 😊
There is also another way thru Leyndell> forsaken depths, to the three fingers frenzied flame and most of all you must pass the hated jumping and dying, I mean it's easier to deal with Malenia than that. but has more loots along the way.
One tip for the area around the mausoleum, if you bring down the walking mausoleum (by climbing the roots to the top and destroying the crystal skulls) i think it stops the mausoleum soldiers from spawning.
If you drop down where the 3finger god rest, one of the walls in there its a magic wall... so you can reach the deep roots without make any quest. Just get to the capital and travel all way to the sewers and fight the first Mogg. (Ng+2 when i remember that lol)
Earned yourself a subscriber with this one man. This has to be the best underground area by far! Really excited to test all this stuff out including Fortisaxx's incants. God tier video, thank you!
woohoo, thanks Dom, been waiting on this one, I can see a item when you first enter the deep but I still can't figure how to get it 😭🤣 great guides man, thanks 👍
That exact same bug hit me as well (with the Rune Bear)! I though I lost the drop for good, but he just respawns and I had to fight him again. But man, I was so pissed/worried about it in the moment! Btw, I can’t wait until your Haligtree video, because I fell SO MANY TIMES in my first play through…and I feel like a damn parkour champ most of the time. 😂
Dude this game is huge is amazing. I literally missed this place on my first playthrough and rn on my second playthrough I suumbled upon this new area. Crazy how I’m still discovering mew things
Thanks for producing and posting this. Just below the rooftop with the 5 Arteria leaves, that required a Spirit Spring to access, is a lower platform with a corpse with a smithing stone 6 I believe.
I've suffered the falling bear bug too many times to count. Sometimes it does fall to its death and I'll get the runes. Sometimes it just stays in limbo forever.
Wahey! This is the first vid I've watched where I hadn't missed anything and I was able to get the secret boss as had advanced the necessary questlines. All chuffed with meself.
4:05 Assuming the translation of Melinas dialog is correct, Torrent is male. When you receive the whistle from Melina, she ends the dialog with "treat him with respect" ;)
Yeah riding the coffin down to the lake of rot was a dope cut scene, riding the magic floating coffin upward to get to Deeproot was so corny I laughed.
Im pretty sure you can still go and do the necessary step for bohmth rannis and fias questlines. I was up to the upside manor, but did this first. I just went back, finished that, and continued with fias quest. You might be lockdd out of fias at this point though if you didnt do the darius and d step, I'm not sure tbh.
i think you are able to summon in the graveyard area because the knight on the horse patrols near it. he isn't insanely hard to beat just annoying cause they teleport and if magic user he seems to often teleport when casting. He does hurt too maybe 3 hits and im dead the mosuleum knight that dropped the 2 gear for you also dropped 2 gear for me i think it was the shoes and a great shield. Eclipse great shield or something. it was purple. also a tip for any casters struggling with them let them run at you and then cast. just be ready to dodge. I used comet and just charged it and when they respawned after teleporting they would charge at me and it just does more damage since they are not shielding themselves. you can open as well i think it works but if they see you thats when they take less damage since their shield will be up. when you jump on the 1st building with the spring there is a gravewart to the left if facing the entrance of the building i think a 6. on the 2nd building with the spring if you jump down to the middle section there is a somber stone 6 i think on a dead body. the gargoyles that breath fire also seem to return 1 flask of each as well at least the ones towards the end do per kill. so if running out of flasks just kill them decent runes 3kish and easy kill so no point not to kill them If having trouble with fia's champions as a caster just switch to rock sling. rogier dodges a lot. they are pretty easy to kill otherwise. think the purple glintstone spell will work too since supposedly they won't be able to see if so they dont dodge it at least that is what is said in another video regarding that spell. does less damage i believe though Unrelated but if in nokstella/outside you can take the Below the Well grace site lift if you unlocked it up to Siofra River well grace site in caelid or vice versa. go to your left you will see a giant rune bear. kill it and go towards the edge of the cliff is a stonesword key. dont think this was mentioned in your Caelid video. If your having trouble with the rune bear kite it to the building and hide inside just watch out the roar it can still hit you unless you clip it against the doors. if you hug the wall to the right towards the end of the guide there is a small cave with a rune bear. kill it you get somber stone 6 or 7. other 2 items in this cave is worthless for the most part. a rune 8 i think and some throwing knives. if you head by the waterfall there is another item forgot what it was Lightning bolt arrow. by the mausaluem soldier ashes to the building is a archer guy. there is an somber stone 6 i believe next to him.
There is a somber smithing stone 7 you missed in the rune bear cave that you can't reach from the cave. You need to go all the way up on a secret section atop the rune bear cave. You can see the hole on the map of the section.
12:50 ther is a Boss after this Invaders. talk to hir, reset time, talk to hir, reset time, and at some Point she is sleeping. you did give hir the Mark of death right? 🤣 have fun with the Dragon of Death. haha gl. ah yea. he got a Remembrence too.
This area is a complete cakewalk if you take the beast repellent torch for the first bit (ants/basilisks) and then rush towards the walking mausoleum in the second half (mausoleum soldiers) as they all despawn when you get on its back and knock the crust off. Then you can just wander around picking up items with little care in the world
below the roof you pick arteria leaf, there is smithing stone 7 from the corpse. behind the walking mausoleum the cliff beside the waterfall there is another rune bear, big one
The mausoleum royal knight is actually luthe the headless summon on a horee, unless you kill his horse, then its kust luthe. Either way, hes a great summon, probably top 5.
Quick tip: if you put the Walking Mounsoleum to sleep, all the headless knights and soldiers will disappear. They come back if you rest at the site of grace thou...
Here's a tip, if you find the path that leads to the top of the walking mausoleum in this area and clear the skeleton growths around the top area, it will fall down, and all of the mausoleum knights in this whole area will disappear.
Dom great video as always. You should do a dark souls things you missed, I'd love to see you playing through the whole souls series. Thanks again for your hard work and awesome videos dude
I built up loads of Smithing Stones before I started new game plus. I had duped 7 remembrances and was saving them for NG+ to dupe the others. Ah! They all disappeared and I didn’t even get the equipment from them. Nevermind I got a little work now lol. EDIT: Just beat Reenala for the 2nd time and all my remembrances are back but I can’t dupe them unless I beat the boss again. I just choose which equipment I thought was best and will go for the Bosses I need again.
You don't need to keep the remembrances to dupe them btw; you can dupe any remembrance you have obtained in this playthrough, even if you have already used them.
So right about 2:45 when you begin to jump on the tree branches,have you noticed a branch with ants going up to reach a high spot,I've tried to reach that branch to see if there's anything up there but I cant get to the branch,it goes up high in the opposite direction your supposed to go. Does it go anywhere if not cool,but if it does please help a guy out. You can look up and see the ants going up the branch,just out of reach. Ty
Lol.. Oh hell no man, The same sh!t happened to me 4:57 after I finished the 'Auriza Side Tomb' on the Northern most outskirts of Leyndell! I saved the clip and everything bcuz how stupid and how hard laughed.. (out loud and by myself even felt dumb) it catching me offgaurd, plus my character was pretty week at the time.. So im not gonna lie, It was turning into a heated battle between us an then he went to grab an I tried to roll but he caught me anyway, threw me to the ground... and then... !!Shhluuunnk!! The damn earth munched him!? Lmao
Dont know if you know already but the super chill area lets you summon because the grave at the edge of the water takes you somewhere im just about to jump in
There is also another rune bear cave that Dom missed with a bunch of somber smithing stones and runes in it The bear is easy to cheese cuz he doesn't come out of the cave so just hit him with some scarlet rot I'll let it do its thing. The bear cave is on the lower level of the deep roots close to where the walking mausoleum is
There's three ways to get into the Deeproot Depths, Gargoyles is just one of them. BY THE WAY: The Spirit Spring you died at is bugged and you will die dropping to it, cause you don't get the small cushion.

If you are collecting armors, do this after you get the pieces you are farming for.
Bad tip. Many of them drop smithing stones. Farm them first, then down the mausoleum
Torrent is a male because Melina says when you first meet her, “Treat ‘him’ with respect.”
Fun tip: if you run up the tree roots and gallop straight by the greatbow wielding Mausoleum Knights, you can jump to the Mausoleum on Torrent and take it down by hitting off a few of the white chunks of whatever that shit is sticking to it. This will knock the Mausoleum over AND despawn all of the Mausoleum Soldiers in the entire area, which makes everything much easier.

to the right of the sog before fia you can platform across to a small area where there is a giant hole in the ground you can platform down. at the bottom is a somber 7 which is directly above the rune bear you fought earlier. You can then cheese the rune bear if you want.
Thanks so much for this video Dom! I was trying to figure out how to reach that hidden cave. You were absolutely right about how fun it was to go through there and kill all those ants. Can't wait to see more of your awesome Elden Ring videos man!
Found this channel bc I’ve been binging elden ring. Super high quality in every respect. Love what you’re doing
Damn! You missed *ALOT* just by not doing Ranni's questline. I didn't realize it was a prerequisite for Fia's. Sans spoilers there's a whole armor + weapon set, a dress, two legendary incants., and a Great Rune for the ending.
You just saved my Journey 3 by letting me know, i want to experience the Death Rune ending this go around and if i skipped Ranni's quest, i would've been piiiiisssssed.
We will be covering Questlines separately so we will do a video solely on Ranni's questline 😁
@@DomsRoundtable sweet, i'll give it a look even though that was the ending i chose for Journey 1.
The bug with the rune bear falling through the ground happened to me in the first area you showed in the last video! I haven't seen it with this one though.
I'm glad I'm not the only one with a disappearing Rune Bear 🤣
In the sewers below Lyndell you can get down to the frenzy door. there is a hidden wall down there that takes you to the deep root depths as well.
If your like me and avoid rune bears as often as possible, you can cheese that first one if you drop down through the hole at the top of the waterfall and use ranged attacks
In the part where Dom goes over the spirit spring to jump up to the roof of a building to get arteria leaves, there is a golden centipede on the very bottom part of the building. Hope this helps anyone.
I love Dom and his channel But I definitely recommend completing all the subs to Fia's and D's quest line before going into her arena. You miss out on a legendary boss and item that changes the game ending plus a lot of lore and armor. When I got to this area I went back and did everything that led up to interacting with Fia. Definitely worth it
Dom, you are by far one of my favorite Elden Ring creators! Your sincerity and gratitude shines through with every post.....and not to mention that wit.....thank you good sir! Cheers from Colorado! Please hit me up if you're ever my way so I can buy you a pint and thank you in person!
Nice one Dom. I particularly enjoyed tackling hte deeproot depths and concluding Fia's quest. I however, missed out on getting the knights armor pieces as I first took down the mausoleum and that made all the knights disappear.
Golden land is actually one of the best ash of war. You can clear lots of enemies around you with the slam and hit enemies from a distance by locking on. Plus it staggers so well
used to be, pretty sure it got nerfed into oblivion
I'm so glad I found this channel. Just love your enthusiasm and personality! (Also like seeing how much I missed too...)
Super awesome tip for those who have the faith investment to pull it off. Walk into that giant cave full of ants, jump off the ledge, and halfway down use Placidusax's Ruin. It is so satisfying
The bug you get with the bears happened to me. Once with a rune bear, and with 2 remembrance bosses.
I felt robbed
I'll have to go back and grab those ashes!! 😅Ironically that Crucible Knight was the easiest one out of them all for me. I think the two CK's that were in the heros grave were the hardest ones to fight for me. I'm also glad I got a chance to see the boss fight for this area before actually walking in to that lol I would've been soo unprepared for 5 bosses lol. I'll have to go back and talk to ranni or something because I still have yet to retrieve that statue for her. There are alot of quest lines I royally fucked up during this initial playthrough. At least I'll know for next run through to take my time and really research each quest line. I already messed up Volcano Manor because I killed Rykard before the last red envelope.
I cheesed him with a great bow from the building next to the spirit spring
the gargoyles remain one of my fave farming spots. immobile and rewarding ~3500 runes each in my first run.
I was scratching my head as to where you were at 8:00 when you said all the way to the north west, when you actually are all the way to the south west 😅 took me a minute to figure out where you were 😊
There is also another way thru Leyndell> forsaken depths, to the three fingers frenzied flame and most of all you must pass the hated jumping and dying, I mean it's easier to deal with Malenia than that. but has more loots along the way.
Ur elden ring video are my absolute favorite. Informative. Thorough. Accurate, and entertaining. Always, well done.
One tip for the area around the mausoleum, if you bring down the walking mausoleum (by climbing the roots to the top and destroying the crystal skulls) i think it stops the mausoleum soldiers from spawning.
If you drop down where the 3finger god rest, one of the walls in there its a magic wall... so you can reach the deep roots without make any quest. Just get to the capital and travel all way to the sewers and fight the first Mogg. (Ng+2 when i remember that lol)
Earned yourself a subscriber with this one man. This has to be the best underground area by far! Really excited to test all this stuff out including Fortisaxx's incants. God tier video, thank you!
woohoo, thanks Dom, been waiting on this one, I can see a item when you first enter the deep but I still can't figure how to get it 😭🤣 great guides man, thanks 👍
I can’t figure out how to get it either :(
Starting a teams meeting the way you start the video.
That exact same bug hit me as well (with the Rune Bear)! I though I lost the drop for good, but he just respawns and I had to fight him again. But man, I was so pissed/worried about it in the moment!
Btw, I can’t wait until your Haligtree video, because I fell SO MANY TIMES in my first play through…and I feel like a damn parkour champ most of the time. 😂
Dude this game is huge is amazing. I literally missed this place on my first playthrough and rn on my second playthrough I suumbled upon this new area. Crazy how I’m still discovering mew things
I think there is also an aeonian buterfly behind the building that you get the crucible night armor in
I cackled out loud when you grabbed the golden rune 1 🤣 someone on the dev team has a hell of a sense of humor
Or forgot to replace the placeholder.
Love your content bro! Really saves me a lot of time tryna find items and such that I’ve missed on my first go around
Thanks for producing and posting this. Just below the rooftop with the 5 Arteria leaves, that required a Spirit Spring to access, is a lower platform with a corpse with a smithing stone 6 I believe.
Quick tip: SIluria is a woman. Always read the items descrription guys!
again, literally just got there last night! its like we are playing on the same schedule
I've suffered the falling bear bug too many times to count. Sometimes it does fall to its death and I'll get the runes. Sometimes it just stays in limbo forever.
Wahey! This is the first vid I've watched where I hadn't missed anything and I was able to get the secret boss as had advanced the necessary questlines. All chuffed with meself.
Thanks Dom!Tips:There are two rune bears in this area, and if you bring down the mausoleum, all the mausoleum soldiers die/go away?...
The ST. Trina sword you pick up in Caelid is very good for handling runebears. Stay close, hit em a few times and it's night night forever.
Holy moly I missed so much. Revisiting tonight. Thank you.
This is the first time I found all the items. Usually I explore then come back to Doms channel and see what I missed
4:05 Assuming the translation of Melinas dialog is correct, Torrent is male. When you receive the whistle from Melina, she ends the dialog with "treat him with respect" ;)
I just thought this cause torrent has horns
@@RowdyRego Well, yeah but some cows also do grow horns, so its not an exclusive male feature ;)
Great video. Pointed out a number of things that I missed. Thanks!
Hey, just wanted to say great videos. Your videos definitely made my journey more fun.
Yeah riding the coffin down to the lake of rot was a dope cut scene, riding the magic floating coffin upward to get to Deeproot was so corny I laughed.
Love the content you put out brosepth…keep it up!
Im pretty sure you can still go and do the necessary step for bohmth rannis and fias questlines. I was up to the upside manor, but did this first. I just went back, finished that, and continued with fias quest. You might be lockdd out of fias at this point though if you didnt do the darius and d step, I'm not sure tbh.
i think you are able to summon in the graveyard area because the knight on the horse patrols near it. he isn't insanely hard to beat just annoying cause they teleport and if magic user he seems to often teleport when casting. He does hurt too maybe 3 hits and im dead
the mosuleum knight that dropped the 2 gear for you also dropped 2 gear for me i think it was the shoes and a great shield. Eclipse great shield or something. it was purple. also a tip for any casters struggling with them let them run at you and then cast. just be ready to dodge. I used comet and just charged it and when they respawned after teleporting they would charge at me and it just does more damage since they are not shielding themselves. you can open as well i think it works but if they see you thats when they take less damage since their shield will be up.
when you jump on the 1st building with the spring there is a gravewart to the left if facing the entrance of the building i think a 6. on the 2nd building with the spring if you jump down to the middle section there is a somber stone 6 i think on a dead body.
the gargoyles that breath fire also seem to return 1 flask of each as well at least the ones towards the end do per kill. so if running out of flasks just kill them decent runes 3kish and easy kill so no point not to kill them
If having trouble with fia's champions as a caster just switch to rock sling. rogier dodges a lot. they are pretty easy to kill otherwise. think the purple glintstone spell will work too since supposedly they won't be able to see if so they dont dodge it at least that is what is said in another video regarding that spell. does less damage i believe though
Unrelated but if in nokstella/outside you can take the Below the Well grace site lift if you unlocked it up to Siofra River well grace site in caelid or vice versa. go to your left you will see a giant rune bear. kill it and go towards the edge of the cliff is a stonesword key. dont think this was mentioned in your Caelid video. If your having trouble with the rune bear kite it to the building and hide inside just watch out the roar it can still hit you unless you clip it against the doors.
if you hug the wall to the right towards the end of the guide there is a small cave with a rune bear. kill it you get somber stone 6 or 7. other 2 items in this cave is worthless for the most part. a rune 8 i think and some throwing knives. if you head by the waterfall there is another item forgot what it was Lightning bolt arrow. by the mausaluem soldier ashes to the building is a archer guy. there is an somber stone 6 i believe next to him.
Beast repellent torch not good for these basilisks or not interested ?
There is a somber smithing stone 7 you missed in the rune bear cave that you can't reach from the cave. You need to go all the way up on a secret section atop the rune bear cave. You can see the hole on the map of the section.
12:50 ther is a Boss after this Invaders. talk to hir, reset time, talk to hir, reset time, and at some Point she is sleeping. you did give hir the Mark of death right? 🤣 have fun with the Dragon of Death. haha gl. ah yea. he got a Remembrence too.
This area is a complete cakewalk if you take the beast repellent torch for the first bit (ants/basilisks) and then rush towards the walking mausoleum in the second half (mausoleum soldiers) as they all despawn when you get on its back and knock the crust off. Then you can just wander around picking up items with little care in the world
below the roof you pick arteria leaf, there is smithing stone 7 from the corpse.
behind the walking mausoleum the cliff beside the waterfall there is another rune bear, big one
The mausoleum royal knight is actually luthe the headless summon on a horee, unless you kill his horse, then its kust luthe. Either way, hes a great summon, probably top 5.
YOUR VIDEOS ARE LIT! THATS ALL! THANK YOU!
Quick tip: if you put the Walking Mounsoleum to sleep, all the headless knights and soldiers will disappear. They come back if you rest at the site of grace thou...
Here's a tip, if you find the path that leads to the top of the walking mausoleum in this area and clear the skeleton growths around the top area, it will fall down, and all of the mausoleum knights in this whole area will disappear.
Dom great video as always. You should do a dark souls things you missed, I'd love to see you playing through the whole souls series. Thanks again for your hard work and awesome videos dude
Love ur guises man. I’d be screwed without them
The best thing about your videos is you’re not afraid to show your failures 😄
I built up loads of Smithing Stones before I started new game plus. I had duped 7 remembrances and was saving them for NG+ to dupe the others. Ah! They all disappeared and I didn’t even get the equipment from them. Nevermind I got a little work now lol.
EDIT: Just beat Reenala for the 2nd time and all my remembrances are back but I can’t dupe them unless I beat the boss again. I just choose which equipment I thought was best and will go for the Bosses I need again.
You don't need to keep the remembrances to dupe them btw; you can dupe any remembrance you have obtained in this playthrough, even if you have already used them.
@@bjornseine2342 Great tip I cashed them all in for equipment lol. I have the Platinum but I’m trying to get 100% of items.
The greatbro knight, who always shoots you off your horse 😂
So right about 2:45 when you begin to jump on the tree branches,have you noticed a branch with ants going up to reach a high spot,I've tried to reach that branch to see if there's anything up there but I cant get to the branch,it goes up high in the opposite direction your supposed to go. Does it go anywhere if not cool,but if it does please help a guy out. You can look up and see the ants going up the branch,just out of reach. Ty
Lol.. Oh hell no man, The same sh!t happened to me 4:57 after I finished the 'Auriza Side Tomb' on the Northern most outskirts of Leyndell! I saved the clip and everything bcuz how stupid and how hard laughed.. (out loud and by myself even felt dumb) it catching me offgaurd, plus my character was pretty week at the time.. So im not gonna lie, It was turning into a heated battle between us an then he went to grab an I tried to roll but he caught me anyway, threw me to the ground... and then... !!Shhluuunnk!! The damn earth munched him!? Lmao
0haha that RUNE BEAR.... kicked your ass. hahahah
Man. You are awesome some of the stuff I new about already bur not all thank you thank you take care
2:43 my favorite mini cave in the game
boi who the hell is holding you at gunpoint to say that
thanks for the like Domestic Gaming!!
Dont know if you know already but the super chill area lets you summon because the grave at the edge of the water takes you somewhere im just about to jump in
There is also another rune bear cave that Dom missed with a bunch of somber smithing stones and runes in it The bear is easy to cheese cuz he doesn't come out of the cave so just hit him with some scarlet rot I'll let it do its thing. The bear cave is on the lower level of the deep roots close to where the walking mausoleum is
I never knew nokstella could be entered from deeproot lol you can actually access deeproot in the very bottom of leyndell where the three fingers are
that bear disappeared on me as well
Was actually going to ask when you were doing this one!
would be nice to have seen the site of grace on the map,
You can reach the Rune Bear from the site of grace near the boss, you drop down and can cheeze it
There's three ways to get into the Deeproot Depths, Gargoyles is just one of them.
BY THE WAY: The Spirit Spring you died at is bugged and you will die dropping to it, cause you don't get the small cushion.
I landed in middle and died, had to climb roots again to retrieve runes. Good farming area though.
wooo love it!
Use the Beast Repellant torch when dealing with basilisks. 2 EZ mate.
