I have a suggestion: If you get the WakWak Tree Soul again, take that shit off instantly. WakWak Tree increases defense but reduces attack, which leads to taking longer to kill things, which leads to taking more hits in the long run. That's already hella not worth it in vanilla Dawn, but it's an active detriment to a limited hit run. EDIT: I swear to god this is the third or fourth time I've seen you discover the 0 damage thing and question whether that's a function of pure defense. It is not; it's a function of the Dead Crusader Soul's damage reduction. Without having the Dead Crusader soul equipped, damage can only go as low as 1.
To be fair, it's usually at least a few months in between his Dawn Rando playthroughs, and of course he doesn't get it every time, so it's understandable that he might not recall exactly how it works. But when it says "reduces damage" without affecting your defense, I would think he could piece together that the damage reduction might be why taking 0 damage would be possible.
I'm so glad you didn't stop with impossible challenge! It was the best Sotn series for a while. I hope you find a new setting for another impossible challenge in Sotn
If the defense value makes you immune to damage to the point where it doesn't register a hit, I think the script needs to be adjusted so that it triggers even if you take zero damage (if you get knocked back by it, at least).
I like this new challenge, but I think that Dead Crusader should be banned as it seems to be able to reduce damage to zero thus not counting as a hit on the counter.
Real talk? You should collaborate in secret with Karl Jobst or some other cheater exposing youtuber. You make a cheated run that's really well done and convincing, and release it as if its real, but don't post on leaderboards, like don't be an ass, and have Karl Jobst releasing a cheater exposed video about THAT RUN on the same day. Then just revel in the confusion.
If he then follows up by actually cheating in a game he's never played before where its obvious he couldn't have a run that good, and he just insists the run is real when nobody would ever believe it for a second, he'd be a legend forever.
I love the Impossible Challenge DB... best stuff you've done in years outside of chasing the 16:26 and branching out to stuff like Super Metroid. it's my opinion entirely, but I find Dawn of Sorrow to be my least favorite game to watch... and even play.
Dr.Blitz I'm all in for more impossible challenge, but it would be nice to have and explanation of how the games are beaten (like with SOTN get flight, glasses and 5 Vlad) because I'm not really familiar with this other games.
Remebered me that old metal song:
"5 hits alone! Just give me!"

DB really suffering that dementia

I like the idea of you doing a "cheater exposed" video on yourself for April Fools lol
I can't decide if it would be funnier to have the run and route actually exist or not.

shit before instant death
love it
Came to say this
Still an accurate title too: he instantly dies after a bunch of shit happens
Impossible Challenge be like "You won't even last 5 minutes playing this game"
i love the impossible challenges, unironically they kept me engaged enough to finish the whole videos like the sotn ones
Nice new impossible challenge-
Good luck! I'm terrified of Menace at the end, it will be terrible.
This is going to be fun! Honestly I've never gotten through DoS, I'm still working on it lol

boomerang skeleton is the new alchemy lab bone throwing skeleton
For the map rando it would really help as a viewer to be able to see the map. Currently chat obscures it.
SOTN is the only Castlevania I've played but I'm looking forward to this on a different game now. Looks interesting.
i think the real takeaway from this video is that dr4gon has never used a gungner in this game

As long as the ‘exposed’ video gets uploaded first XD
