Here's something to add to your pain: You could have used a 90% or 95% shield for taking the necessary damage and it still would have activated the rings. You just did an (almost) all hit run for no reason.
I... I'm sorry, my friend. Hope it gets better for you, cuz this is god damn relatable. If ya need help or someone to tall to, remember to feel free to reach out to anyone, myself included
Wow, I had no idea the Pate/Creighton quest still gave you a way to get the Engraved Gauntlets even if you kill one of them beforehand. That's a surprising amount of though they put into it, especially considering all the things they didn't put that much thought into. If you want to try this run at home*, you can save on repair powders just a bit by using the Repair sorcery. In vanilla, it's just past the rubble that you have to go through the Shrine of Winter to get around; in Scholar, it's in a chest behind a petrified lion in Shaded Woods. It ain't fast, but you can probably spare a few levels for Attunement on a run like this to get you a decent number of casts. *Note: You do not want to try this run at home.
Completely understandable but utterly disappointing that you didn't invade 1000 other people to get the Ring of Blades +2, imagine the consistency boost!
Tye, on the real right now thank you. You have helped me through some pretty tough times and especially recently, you came when I needed it most. I appreciate you!
I just finished playing Nier: Automata a few days ago and to hear some of the music behind the Flexile Sentry and The Lost Sinner Fight was wild. ( 10:57 )
He finished it and took down all the bosses, Ancient Dragon being the last. It took him literally years though and dozens of hours of failed boss attempts although his ruleset was a bit different because he did it naked too. Earlier tonight he lamented on stream how he’s going to be bombarded with messages about this but his response is basically that he doesn’t care because hotspur already did this years before either of them.
Got to university about a week ago and everything seemed kinda down for me, I’ve been rewatching your vids and I got happy when I saw this video being up, keep up the work tye Godspeed 🙏

The Covenant of Champions DOES remove the despawn function, as well as slightly boosting Item Discovery, at the cost of No Summoning, Boosted offenses, Defenses, and HP for enemies, and some new NPC invasions.
It doesn't keep enemies is the first couple of version of DS2 , but after a patch it does keep them from despawning , it doesn't raise item discovery or enemy HP or new NPC invaders . Many of these points apply to NG+ and not Company Of Champions .
6:45 - if modding the game is acceptable for challenge runs, I very VERY highly recommend the 'guaranteed item drops' mod on Nexus, it literally only ups your item-discovery number super duper high. It just saves you time, in the end, no benefits are granted that would not otherwise be achievable in game. Also a hint for anyone else, not just the OP. update - since you are on not-sotfs, this mod might not work, is only tested for sotfs version.
not sure if this would've been usefull, but what about trying to parry? if you misstime your parry, you won't get flung away, but you won't parry either, it's like a weird thinghy
The fact the demon of song didn't take much damage from the grab must be because he has damage resistance when in grab animation. If it didn't then summons could go whack on it while it's hugging something
i remember using these rings in my first playthrough and thinking must be insane to use these in a actual build well I guess I was right because even with ur skills u must be insane lol loved the video
The Zelda music hits me hard. The first single player game I played on a console. Edit: I mean botw but I often just speak about both as they were one.
Tye is the ultimate tease He disappears for long periods of time Drops absolute heat Then disappears for another millenia Repeats No elaboration needed
Awesome as always tye! Don't be afraid to do a run that is just fun, and not miserable sometimes! Also, I want Alexander the jar. I've commented and am currently praying to my God

The emotional damage i get from looking at my wedding ring would clear this run no problem
💀😭

damaging my ring to this rn
That's..........
"The Ring of the Starfish quivers..." Is what you saw before fully watching
Damn that ring bout to be shattered
Bro?
yo, didn't even realise the least competent, with the msot beautiful pants, dark souls challenge runner was back
You really put these enemies though the ringer.
Dark Souls 2 has so many fun and wacky things you can do in it. Powerstance greatshields? Sure why not
Failed the challenge within the first minute. Did not kill Pate using ring damage. Casual
@@themightyryden4458 nuh uh

Dark Souls 2 is too pure for this world
The man himself has returned with more masochistic content 🔥🔥🔥

Tye, on the real right now thank you. You have helped me through some pretty tough times and especially recently, you came when I needed it most. I appreciate you!
He did come, that he did.
Lmao no one cares. Not even tye, stop with the brown nosing, you already got a onlyfans tye account begging for attention 😂
Sir Taylor has (un)fortunately returned to us when we betas needed this super based sigma to return
Another upload within 6 months, this is a treat beyond words
Tye Taylor you are my favorite challenge runner and content creator. Your videos bring me so much joy thank you ❤
@@shleem4894 to bad your broke a.. ain't a member. If you appreciated as much as you say
@@ramrodbldm9876 loser classist behavior
All I could think about is that this is exactly what I would think @Senza playing a Souls game would be like and I love it!
The "all hit" run
I just finished playing Nier: Automata a few days ago and to hear some of the music behind the Flexile Sentry and The Lost Sinner Fight was wild. ( 10:57 )
Always happy to see more DS2 challenges! This one is a crazy one too lol also I hear that Chrono Trigger OST haha 29:30
12:44 - ohhh, it's not SOTFS, wow, it's wild seeing the lil differences
its okay Tye, thorns-based challenge runs make me explode too
Its always a surprise and a welcome one at that to see a new Tye vid pop up in my notifications. Can't wait more!
i think challenger andy also did this. i dont remember if he finished it tho. good vid

He did, and he didn't even need to attack anything!
Less than a minute in and you have already killed a guy without using a ring lmao
@@andrewbartlesby7958 nuh uh
Im glad youre back to posting, i love your content
Let's go new Tye video. Needed this content back in my sub box
RIP in peace the old hidden videos (which I loved)
however I am overjoyed for new ones
Your choice of background music is always superb, appreciate hearing Black Powder again
Got to university about a week ago and everything seemed kinda down for me, I’ve been rewatching your vids and I got happy when I saw this video being up, keep up the work tye Godspeed 🙏
My day genuinely got better when I saw you uploaded a new video, love you and your content, brother!
The deadpan delivery is always perfect 👌
Misread the title as "only rng damage", like you just spent ages waiting for some random luck to kill the enemies.
I mean this still kinda is rng damage in a way lol
Man just pulled up after like 2 years of waiting and never even addressed it kinda based
nah not even a minute in and you're swinging a sword.
Nuh uh
Never seen your videos before but this was great man really entertaining. New sub here
Great vid
OMG, he actually returned! I was afraid the previous video was just a one-off before another hiatus. Phenomenal!
When the world needed him the most
Sean strickland absolutely pumping out the ds2 vids, here's the thing you guys
I was sure the Giant Lord fight would be impossible. Admirable tenacity, mister Taylor
Just happy to see ya back🎉
I invoke the name of galakrond, the one, the ur-dragon. He who shall be born again, in saying that tye surely can defeat the ultimate souls borne challenge: finding those maidens everyone keeps mentioning.
We have all tried and failed, tye is our only hope
I don't know why you used Chrono Trigger music, but I love you for it
Why did you kill Pate? You can just lure a hollow soldier over to kill him for you.
Yeah cause the fight is so hard
@@ryanvandoren1519 no, because it invalidates the challenge. The whole point is only using rings, right?
@@totallynotkavak7128 ah fair enough, didnt even think of that. Run invalidated!!!
thanks for bringing us this viedo off peak souls 2
You're amazing I love your content. Thank you for all the hard work you do
The Covenant of Champions DOES remove the despawn function, as well as slightly boosting Item Discovery, at the cost of No Summoning, Boosted offenses, Defenses, and HP for enemies, and some new NPC invasions.
vanquishers seal counts as ring damage right lmao
It does not remove despawning in base DS2, which he said he was playing at 11:52
It doesn't keep enemies is the first couple of version of DS2 , but after a patch it does keep them from despawning , it doesn't raise item discovery or enemy HP or new NPC invaders .
Many of these points apply to NG+ and not Company Of Champions .
The only good thing about this run is not having to lvl Adp
My favorite C- tier ‘Dark Souls 2, Scholar of the First Sin’ challenge-run youtuber 🥰
Woooooo boy Tye is backk
Hope ur doing well Tye 🙏 ur vids always make me laugh 👍
The absolutely goofy shit you can do in this game will always amuse and astound
dark souls 2 is my fav souls game! these vids are awesome

Huff glue and sit awake until a Tye Taylor video comes out
not sure if this would've been usefull, but what about trying to parry? if you misstime your parry, you won't get flung away, but you won't parry either, it's like a weird thinghy
MY KING HAS BLESSED ME WITH A VIDEO
Thank you for the video TyeTalor
The fact the demon of song didn't take much damage from the grab must be because he has damage resistance when in grab animation. If it didn't then summons could go whack on it while it's hugging something
Love your content you are the reason I started to watch waffle the guy from terraria 😂
Ah yes, the universal Souls Truths. The one enemy that's a wheel can absolutely go fuck itself.
Great video as usual! Hope you will do the DLC with this challenge at some point :)
i remember using these rings in my first playthrough and thinking must be insane to use these in a actual build well I guess I was right because even with ur skills u must be insane lol loved the video
Oooo yes this is a good day when a new Tye video comes out
That's a run I've never seen or heard of before. Amazing how people can still come up with new things to do in these games. Michael-zaki be praised.
My glorious king has returned once again
The Zelda music hits me hard. The first single player game I played on a console.
Edit: I mean botw but I often just speak about both as they were one.
My man returns
Missed ya vids my boy 🙏
low agility rolling but still taking damage is probably OP for this
The legend returns
Surprised this is possible! Good shit
I never thought I'd see a hits only run.
Cant wait for the hitless ring only run
Next you should do "Can you beat elden ring with only souls damage?"
THE KING ALWAYS DELIVERS TO HIS PEOPLE, I MISS YOU HOMIE
Insane run man. Couldn't imagine how annoying doing all the DLC bosses would be. 😅
You deserve more subscribers man
My guy. Can’t wait for the random UFC reference. Have a great weekend.
Welcome back Tyelor Tayelor
Tye is the ultimate tease
He disappears for long periods of time
Drops absolute heat
Then disappears for another millenia
Repeats
No elaboration needed
My beloved Goat has returned
Alternative title: masochist attacks people and explodes all over the place when they retaliate
Next: put a ring on it challenge
the mental fortitude of this man knows no bounds
It’s funny cuz we Brazilians use rings as a joke to refer to the “a-hole” so I was laughing way too much
The king is back, again.
0:37 in conclusion no you cant 😂😂😂
the Emperor Protects
Great Video
My father has returned with more sweet succulent content
"and if my math is correct, that is more"

This really made me quake an shake ❤
Awesome as always tye! Don't be afraid to do a run that is just fun, and not miserable sometimes! Also, I want Alexander the jar. I've commented and am currently praying to my God
Fucking love you Tye, I hope you're well
My king... You're back ❤
MY GOAT TYE I LOVE U
Man I’ve missed Tye’s stupid inappropriate hilarious commentary
