Just to mention in case anyone suggests it - the cannon blast does NOT count as fire damage so using Oil on enemies does NOT increase the damage - You can't leave items on the ground at all in Bloodborne so leaving bullets at the fog gate isn't possible
So, i think there is a way to kill mergo, so when mergo goes onto the shadow realm it seems like its clone attacks add a extra counter hit. I remember that someone was able to use it ( i think it was baron castle or the backlogs.)
I assume this was tried but in the small chance it wasn't is bloodborne simular to dark souls where you could place bullets outside the fog wall or are they unreachable
@@jacobvincent8677 The Hunter's Dream isn't the same as a Bonfire. You can't refill your inventory without resetting the map. Maybe you could leave bullets at the fog wall and then collect bullets that are naturally spawned around the map but there are no bullets in the Nightmare of Mensis so it wouldn't matter even if you could
Wow, both people I watch to become more knowlegeble on puns and expressions... I mean, it would blow my head, if there was a collaboration of some sorts.. There might have been, I just need some time for life outside YT
The fact that you don't have 100k yet is mindblowing to me. I've seen so many of your challenge runs and the quality of your vids definitely deserves it
I checked, in disbelief, and found this to be true and that I had never subscribed myself, which I thought I had quite a while ago. 100k and more easily deserved.
Regarding the "getting the third rune" thing: The way you made and edited the video, I think we all were under the assumption you hit a wall (writing this a you're fighting Ludwig after getting the third rune). At that point in any challenge runm I personally feel like it's way more fun to have the runner explore and explain "OK, these are the things we could theoretically do within the confines of the game to maybe still turn this around; this run isn't legit anymore, this is just for the sake of sciene".
I call that the Mythbusters method - here's the challenge as initially presented. Is it feasible, yes or no; now let's see what it WOULD take to make it happen.
awesome run. Gave me the vibe of the ds1 throwing knife run while being on the opposite end of the damage spectrum. Honestly, challenge runs whose viability is up in the air are extra special. So much suspense. Overall this video was a blast looking forward to the next one
I appreciate that after you were able to get started you did not continue hacking things in to make the first few fights doable. It would be easy to go overboard and say oh we need to plus three so I also added extra shards
"...One of the hardest bosses in the run" - mentioning the f*cking WITCHES OF HEMWICK! WAT!? The absolute madness some challenge runs become, man... XD P.S: Old subscriber here
Timesplitters Future Perfect main menu theme took me off guard in the background, the nostalgia hit so hard that I couldn't concentrate on the run for a short while lol.
I had no idea the witches could hurt each other with that aoe move. They're never alive long enough for me to see it that often. Literally blew my mind! Another bit of trivia that probably wouldn't be useful for runs like this; Ebrietas' aura buff in phase 2 actually very slowly damages her. And I mean slooooowwwly
The way to pronounce Oedon is actually told to the player by Gherman. If you listen to his dialogue after you kill the blood starved beast, he pronounces it as "Oh-den"
So let me be clear. You canonically cannoned your way through the game, using a canonical cannon, which fires cannon balls. This sounded way better in my head.
when the nurse casts shadows around it, a double of it spawns with linked healtbar, in theory landing a counter there should count as double the damage you normally do, allowing for a win. certainly its challenging though.
Glad we have a man like you who keeps the older souls games alive with these challenge runs, keep up the great work Mr. Leeds! even in defeat you didn’t fail to entertain us 👍🏻
I was watching this and started to doze off (not bc you’re boring I was eepy love you sir Leeds) but when I say “Incase you’re wondering, enemies get one shot” woke my ass up
So I'm not sure if anyone's mentioned this but if you could get to the phase change on Mergo's wet nurse, both her and her clones take damage from any explosives allowing you to deal double damage by hitting both with a single shot. Unless there's something I missed it seemed like you were able to get to her phase change with two shots left so she should be theoretically possible.
Using chalices as you do, you could stack three +5 bullets runes for a total of 7 canon shoots. This would leave the Wet Nurse at 500hp if you landed the 7 counter hits😅😅 Love your content. Keep it up!!
His church is an offshoot of the cult of the Flying Spaghetti Monster after their first schism over what type of cheese should be put on their nightly pasta communion.
Only other options that I could think of: 1 - Get 3 of the Max Formless Odeon Runes from false depth chalices for 35 bullets (7 shots) 2 - Unlimited shooting glitch (Turbo Cheese mode)
Tbh hearing the usual "subscribe" deal doesn't motivate me to sub in most cases, but I've watched so many of your videos by just browsing that it just makes sense to. Hoping that 100K goal gets blasted.
Wait a fucking minute. Is that Time Splitters music I hear? Easiest subscribe of my life, Mans knows Time Splitters exist, one of the goats. Lookin forward to watching the rest of your videos :3
I think there may be one way to push your damage to the next level on this weapon. Since you're using the Church Cannon in the left hand, you should be able to carry a melee weapon in your right hand and equip it with poor man's blood gems to get a damage boost at low health. The best weapon to use for this strategy would be the Reiterpallasch because you can still access hyper-mode easily with the following steps: Create blood bullets, lose health, enter Reiter trick-mode and fire a single bullet with R2, create more blood bullets, lose health, repeat until hyper-mode is engaged. Take my suggestion with a grain of salt because I don't know if the poor man's blood gem damage boost affects guns, and I don't have the means to test this right now.
It's a good idea but unfortunately the poor man's gems only affect the damage of the weapon they're equipped to, so it wouldn't affect the gun you hold in your other hand.
"... I think it's unlikely they'd vicarry us to victory" doesn't quite roll off the tongue, personally "... I think it's unlikely they'd carry us to vicary" sounds a little better.
Once again, I have stumbled upon private correspondence between Shrek's cousin and the chicken from Moana. Even though the intro makes it clear that this was never meant for my eyes, I cannonot tear them away.
seing as bloodtinge is almost in fact another name for physical damage in the game a good way of incresing damage is with the beast claw, if allowing it just for the sake of testing i believe more damage could have been done (this in amygdala fight would have been a one-shot i believe)
I wish there was a rune that increased the number of bullets you got when turning your blood into them. That would increase the number of shots you can use quite a bit I imagine. ...I feel like it's the sort that they would have, so I'm surprised that there isn't one.
AFAIK the second witch is definitely present from the very start of the fight. It just doesn't do anything so its hard to find, but you don't need to kill or even injure the first one for the second to appear
The church should worship sniping enemies with things that shouldn't be used to snipe. Because that was the number one usage of this cannon when PVP existed in Bloodborne.
Idk if it works anymore, or for another matter with the church cannon, but there’s a glitch with the cannon where you can fire it infinitely, so if u were to use said glitch the run would in theory be possible
Is it just me or is it that the reason he was getting mixed results on damage on Darkbeast Paarl is because he was getting headshots and a counter hit when he wasn’t buffed, but he missed the head when he was buffed
With the whirligig saw glitch you'd be able to do it easily, but it's a glitch and it'd require using another weapon, so this rule set wouldn't allow it regardless.
Just to mention in case anyone suggests it
- the cannon blast does NOT count as fire damage so using Oil on enemies does NOT increase the damage

Babazaki sucked a D on logic classess again
@jacobvincent8677 so you actually can't drop items at all in Bloodborne unlike the other games, if you discard them they just disappear
Of course you can beat the game with the Church Cannon, it fires entire churches!
True story
You cant fire churches silly, they dont even work jobs in the first place
Ahh I see a fellow enjoyer of the Emperors Retribution...... also known as a Warhammer 40K Titan 😂
I was fully expecting JK to refer to the first boss as "canonfodder Gascoigne" but he didn't :( well... at least it can still be my own headcannon...
You have too high expectations of me 😂
@@JKLeeds Regardless, the video was still a blast!
Wow, both people I watch to become more knowlegeble on puns and expressions... I mean, it would blow my head, if there was a collaboration of some sorts..

Cannonfather Gasgoigne does have a ring to it

The workaround with the Witches of Hemwick is exactly what makes watching challenge runs so much fun. Really really nice run!
awesome run.

10 seconds in and there’s already a canon pun, i love this channel
16:13 I always love when you do sudden cuts as an enemy is lumbering on screen and your character is about to get their shit wrecked.
the pause after "marrow victories" was a notable gesture at shame, good stuff
17:16 ReBourne Ultimatum was the best wordplay. I could've sworn i heard Moby's Extreme Ways coming on too
Was waiting for him to mention the witches hurting eachother. Saw it in a Ymfah video. But that video ended in like a full auto cannon glitch.
Was weird that he said he had never seen this in a video before. There is no way he doesn't watch Ymfah right?
I actually haven't watched much ymfah 😅
@@JKLeeds :O very surprising. I think you are missing out in terms of pure entertainment, but to each their own! Also entertaining vid man, good work.
10:38 Finally someone mentions the Hemwick Witch trick! JK always bringing out the obscure stuff ♥
I was pretty happy with it!
"...One of the hardest bosses in the run" - mentioning the f*cking WITCHES OF HEMWICK! WAT!? The absolute madness some challenge runs become, man... XD
P.S: Old subscriber here
That's what I love about them 😂
The gimmick bosses are the hardest more often than you might expect in runs like this
Timesplitters Future Perfect main menu theme took me off guard in the background, the nostalgia hit so hard that I couldn't concentrate on the run for a short while lol.
Putting a tab up for this incase i don't get notified like last time.
What blasted fun, thanks for another great video JK!
Thanks for watching!
Been bingewatchin your stuff as of lately, love the puns and presentation of the videos. Keep it up man
Definitely the punniest Bloodborne challange run I've ever seen, you got yourself a new subscriber.
I had no idea the witches could hurt each other with that aoe move. They're never alive long enough for me to see it that often. Literally blew my mind! Another bit of trivia that probably wouldn't be useful for runs like this; Ebrietas' aura buff in phase 2 actually very slowly damages her. And I mean slooooowwwly
I'm all down for you giving yourself whatever you need to do a run. They're entertaining one way or another.
"what happened to Logarius?"
"Didn't you hear? He became a Martin."
28 minutes of cannon puns. I'll subscribe just for that
the dedication. You deserve a sub
The way to pronounce Oedon is actually told to the player by Gherman. If you listen to his dialogue after you kill the blood starved beast, he pronounces it as "Oh-den"
Also the friendly guy in oedon chapel also just refers to the building by its name so you can hear it there
I think Eileen also says "Oedon" at some point
Unmatched puns in the soulsborne category, dad jokes go brrrrrrr
So let me be clear. You canonically cannoned your way through the game, using a canonical cannon, which fires cannon balls. This sounded way better in my head.
when the nurse casts shadows around it, a double of it spawns with linked healtbar, in theory landing a counter there should count as double the damage you normally do, allowing for a win. certainly its challenging though.
I was not expecting it to be a basic arithmetic class for half of the video but I thoroughly enjoyed it anyways
Bro thought he had to save edit the formless oedon rune in when he could’ve just used a false depth
"My faith in god is my greatest weapon, and it loads grapeshot."
Kinda wish we got occasional jump stares like on streams.
Maybe next time now I have a better camera 📷
Glad we have a man like you who keeps the older souls games alive with these challenge runs, keep up the great work Mr. Leeds! even in defeat you didn’t fail to entertain us 👍🏻
What an explosive run JK.
It was a blast
@@JKLeeds Hopefully this run didn't cause you to develop a short fuse.
@@JKLeeds truly blew me away
I was watching this and started to doze off (not bc you’re boring I was eepy love you sir Leeds) but when I say “Incase you’re wondering, enemies get one shot” woke my ass up
Nice work, JK. Great video as always.
Love the perfect dark music as the background music 🎶 💜
Awesome game
I know we're supposed to be sad about the result, but I admit my thoughts were more "woo! It's not the challenge runner run-failed fakeout bit!"
I still can’t believe you don’t have over 100k subscribers, your videos are amazing!

Man, that first joke about the church lore flew right over my head like a cannonball the first time I watched the video
Using chalices as you do, you could stack three +5 bullets runes for a total of 7 canon shoots. This would leave the Wet Nurse at 500hp if you landed the 7 counter hits😅😅
Love your content. Keep it up!!
Um... no?
You can't get more than one chalice rune on one save
If you try the chest in which the rune was, it will be replaced with madmans knowledge
@almondbread8255 I think that with chalice dungeons you actually can
@@Death7_ nope. you can only get one of each tier, unless you do a duplication glitch, which requires an enemy to drop the rune.
@SuperNinjaMan55 oh, good to know 👍
Love the timesplitters: FP theme usage
Was going to comment this, Great game.
Dude you're my favorite streamer these days. Keep up the good work!
They would believe in RNJeasus
Hey for Wet Nurse, you can probably double hit the Nurse in the Shadow Phase. It would be hard but possible
With every dad joke, I can see JK looking straight into my soul xD
Appreciate the use of the TimeSplitters and GoldenEye OST
Also Monkey Island! Was very happy about that

Already strained my eyes within the first minute from rolling them too hard at the puns, that's a very promising start
Excellent work as usual!
Video is so good that JK must get CANNONISED by the church
Bloodborne bring new meaning to the concept of Hand Cannon.
Great run. Lots of unexpected moments, the largest of being you're not yet at 100k.
C'mon folks get J to 100K. Leeds.
His faith would totally be mr.Torgue from borderlands
10:58 it is mentioned by ymfah in his cannon only video.

after that painful pun at the start, youd best cannonize someone in the healing church lol
My man really rolled up to the gun fight with a cannon strapped to his arm.
Sounds like the consequence of reading berserk

Nah it definitely doesn't appear til you deplete 50% of the first Witch's health. Tested this thoroughly 👌
Maybe praising the firebomb goddess, that’s the church they would run
This was the last thing i needed to pick up for platinum back in the day
All wishes for that 100k soon🎉
@JKLeeds I have been watching you for a while and you made me like dark souls and deadass didn’t notice how your not at 100k yet it’s bs😭
The church should worship sniping enemies with things that shouldn't be used to snipe. Because that was the number one usage of this cannon when PVP existed in Bloodborne.
Imagine doing a challenge run like this if backing up your save wasn’t a thing, I could never.
Church Derp would pray for sulver bullets, blood echoes and bone marrow ash
Killing everything with the church cannon just personifies "I'll defeat you with the power of Christ at mach screw you!"
Idk if it works anymore, or for another matter with the church cannon, but there’s a glitch with the cannon where you can fire it infinitely, so if u were to use said glitch the run would in theory be possible
