      Actually done both a bow(with arrow ofc) and a crossbow run, pretty viable overall, when stacked with ROB and Leo ring. Especially crossbow, since there is no stat investment, you can end up with very high hp stamina and adp for good survivability. You could respect at late game into int+faith for sanctum, dark infused+dark clutch can get you about 900 damage per special attack.

  • @volcanolord100
    @volcanolord100 3 роки тому +2224

    In case anyone is confused as to why bombs did more damage than advertised, it's because the game only shows the last bit of damage dealt, not the total damage. The fire deals damage last, so that's what we see, but the bomb hitting the enemy itself deals extra damage. Thus boss markers are inaccurate as all hell.
    EDIT: and now he's explained it in video. Great. Now I feel stupid.

If you can't punch the environment ONLY in order to get things you need, then at that point you may as well say rolling into things and breaking them or baiting enemies off ledges isn't allowed, either.

  • @Augoeides32
    @Augoeides32 2 роки тому +9

    After years of watching this, I finally decided to give this a try as a challenge run; it's actually pretty fun! I'd say the worst part, was figuring out a proper Soul farming method, to maintain the amount of items I had. Easiest method I found was to farm the 5 guys outside of Straid's cell, by using Bonfire Ascetics to push the area to NG+5 or higher, then just killing them over and over again, in Covenant of Champions. That took a lot of stress off the run, although it takes a LOT of Souls; so far, over a million of my Souls are just from item restocks.
    Also, I remembered to get the Engraved Gloves right away, but they only seem to trigger with knives, and so rarely, that at first I didn't even think they worked. The Iron Keep is the most stressful area so far, because the Alonne Knights are tanky, usually requiring 6 knives or 3 hex pots. So, getting through that area got really expensive, as I had to slowly permanently kill enemies so that I wouldn't waste items on my deaths against the Smelter Demon. So, that area alone probably cost me half a million Souls in restocks.
    I just started Shrine of Amana, but not expecting too much difficulty. Most of Ymfah's run seems a bit over exaggerated (Lost Sinner isn't that bad if you bother to actually light furnace before fighting her :P), and progressing isn't too hard, as long as you don't rush and take out enemies (same can be said about non-challenge runs too; people think this game is way harder than it is). Hardest enemy I fought so far, is the secret Black Pursuer that spawns behind Straid's Cell. I've beaten the other Pursuers, but for some reason, this one gives me trouble and always seems to pull off some kind of BS one hit kill right before I can land the final blow (even though I have 1200 HP and fully upgraded armor). Other than that, lots of fun pelting Bosses with bombs!

      Well DS2 is by far the easiest. It's slow and like 90% of the enemies are identical. Bloodborne is a lot faster with more dynamic enemies.

      @@halvarianknight4477 Nah, DS3 is at least fast. The hardest part about DS2 for me was learning to wait and be patient before pressing the next button in the combo.
      DS1 is definitely the hardest though.
