Press Continue did a No Stamina run in DS3 and it was completely miserable lol. But notably you have to face tank a lot of hits since you don't have any ranged attack options, because spells now use stamina. So no I don't think it's possible but please print me wrong!
I like challenges like this which are actually kind of a puzzle and require a different approaches to stuff that's normally easy. Way more interesting than stuff like broken sword only, where the approach is exactly the same but it takes forever.
i thought the same during the blighttown poison part. Having to get all of those buffs and combining different strats just to get through an environmental hazard sounds like a metroidvania or a zelda game with emerging gameplay to me tbh
Spot on my friend. Most interesting challenges for me are the ones that require creative staregies instead of just pure skill, makes the challenge and the video much more fun :D
@@tototriceps the thing is the designers make these big ass games with tons of things that next to no one uses (i'm talking things pointless items for example), and they kinda funnel you into a set strategy, like "this is how the game is meant to be played".

This really sums up most challenge runs for me in dark souls, and kind of the game as a whole.. It all boils down to a single phrase. "It's not hard, it's just annoying." Some games are easy to learn, hard to master.. Dark souls is the perfect example of a game that is hard to learn, but easy to master. The difficulty starts off crazy high, but similar to cup-head, the second you start memorizing enemy's moves, you just enter a state of focus, and suddenly you're first-trying bosses like nothing.
"Dark souls is the perfect example of a game that is hard to learn, but easy to master." I actually think its the opposite. But i am speaking from a Speedrunning/Challenge Running point of view so its probably not gonna be like that for most people...
13:45 Sorcery can in fact kill the snake guy at the prison. Well, one sorcery can at least, Dark Fog from the DLC. Getting to Dark Fog without any crystal sorcery would have been hell so Great Chaos Fireball was the better option anyway, but I can’t not point it out Also. Congrats on the run, very impressive

23:18 I have seen someone beat bed without using stamina and without using the firebomb cheese, I forget which channel did it, but It's a serious showcase of skill.
Just found out: The amount of damage drained is always rounded down. So if your character's max HP is at 99 then it'll calculate 0.99 damage (the 1% drain) and then round it down to 0.
@@tototriceps There are some shenanigans with getting cursed, the dusk crown ring and the sanctus shield that you also dont lose hp while using power within and being in constant RTR range tough.
You can also get the Tin Crystallization Catalyst by just killing Logan. The only thing that changes if you finish his questline is that you can find his clothes and Logan's Catalyst in a chest where he used to be in the archives.
You use the Shortcut by giving the Fair Lady 30 hummanities. For the rest you just use Hidden Body and walk past everything. You never need to step into the lava!
so I really liked the run and your commentary, gonna be checking out your other videos for sure but I LOVE you accent bro, it's so cool and thick while still being 100% understandable
I am pleased to see bobobiceps uploading yet another video wherein I may see someone having less fun than me and belly laugh like a European king watching the court fool dangling over the lion pit. Thank you total triceratops. Also all enemies mimic tear when? I feel like it could be very silly, and I want to watch someone beat an npc invader with fire giant health but I’m too bad to do it myself.
If you want a good challenge in any of these games, keep your levels low and keep pushing through NG+ plays up to NG+7. If it's Demon's Souls, maintain Pureblack Tendency for world and character and no Cling Ring and NG+7.
i was like oh its gonna be hard but not that hard magic dont use stamina then when you got to blight town i was like oh no poison guess resistance is finally kinda not completly useles anymore
Great video, loved the sense of relentless humour you have. =P Also, the egg-head is a parasite, not a virus. A parasite is capable of reproduction as a living organism, a virus is not an individually living organism and requires a living one to procreate. They're very odd things, honestly.
Here's an idea can you beat elden ring with only summoned weapons aka spells that sommon a a weapon like the glint blade sorcerys, gavel of hama or Loretta's bow. I don't know if any incantations do that but if ther are they'd be included to. So anything that somones a weapon to attack
Can't wait to watch this video!! I just know it's gonna be awesome! ✨ Edit: Just finished it. It was absolutely amazing and highly enjoyable! Can't wait for more masterpieces like this one!
Hey Toto, I was wondering, how do you have 4 soul spear casts even with the tin crystalisation catalyst, because, with that thing, you have 50% casts less than with an oder staff How did you do that ?
Wait, shouldn't Power Within instantly kill you? Or would it not because your max heath is 1 and it only does 1%/second and therefore won't kill until 60 seconds have passed??
RTSR is useless for this run, you could never activate it as you can only have integer health numbers. You would need to lower your health to 0.2 since your max is 1 to activate RTSR which is impossible.
Because it only activates when your max HP bellow 20%. My HP is always 1 so it can never get lowered bellow 20% HP anymore... if its lowered your are dead haha
Hard to explain, but basicly it wont kill you if your health cannot be divided by 100... Go check out the wiki for info: darksouls.wiki.fextralife.com/Power+Within
RTR would only work if your health could be lowered to bellow 20% of your max HP. Since my max HP is 1 its not possible to activate RTSR because the health values can only take integer amounts, no decimals like 0.2...
Wait a minute... how'd you use power within? I thought that pyromancy damages you in return for the power. You should have been dead the second you used it.
During the duration of the spell 100 visual pulses (1 per sec) will happen. On each of those pulses, the player loses 1% of their max HP (rounded down). This also means, that a player having a maximum HP of something that is not divisible by 100 will survive the full duration of the spell with minimal HP left.
Now i am thinking, is something similar doable for Dark Souls 3 as well?

Hmmm, well, time to do this challenge, AND using Dark Fog instead of Great Chaos Fireball :)
The names for these boss fights are on point
I agree :)
This man has ascended far beyond any Dark Souls runs I've seen. The fact he stays so chill makes it a thousand times better 😂😂
Being chill is the only way to have patience for this 😁
Now this is a mark of a true souls player
23:18 I have seen someone beat bed without using stamina and without using the firebomb cheese, I forget which channel did it, but It's a serious showcase of skill.
Gamersweekend did it on his no stamina run
For Blight town you could have used the ring that protects you from poisen which is accessible after gargoyles. Respect brother for completing the run
I did have the ring, but its not enough haha. The spell is also needed!
I appreciate the hollow knight ost in the background :3
Fit perfectly with Blighttown!
shouldnt power within instantly kill you because you only have 1 hp? why didnt it damage you?
I'd like to know too!
Just found out:

Yep, it just doesnt when you are bellow 100 maximum HP. Which in a normal playrhrough cannont happen, unless you cheat the game.
@@tototriceps There are some shenanigans with getting cursed, the dusk crown ring and the sanctus shield that you also dont lose hp while using power within and being in constant RTR range tough.
11:40 that music.
You nostalgic bastard.
I love it/you.
It just fits perfectly into that part :)
You can also get the Tin Crystallization Catalyst by just killing Logan. The only thing that changes if you finish his questline is that you can find his clothes and Logan's Catalyst in a chest where he used to be in the archives.
At which point of the questline can you kill him to still get the catalyst?
Beyond the fact that this is extremely cool and very impressive, I am really curious to see how you get through the Demon Ruins and Lost Izaleth
Spoilers:
Most of it gets skipped, because short cut
You use the Shortcut by giving the Fair Lady 30 hummanities. For the rest you just use Hidden Body and walk past everything. You never need to step into the lava!
Nobody ever bothers to pick up Logan's Catalyst. If you're just after the Tin Crystalization Catalyst, you can just kill Logan, by the way.
Yeah i learned that later actually 😅
Dark souls 1 is one of the greatest games that I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing.
11:14 "Umm... actually, that's dusk. Oolacile is a place"
I knew i messed that up haha
so I really liked the run and your commentary, gonna be checking out your other videos for sure
but I LOVE you accent bro, it's so cool and thick while still being 100% understandable
I appreciate that! Hope you enjoy the content :D
My prediction for this run; Sorcery goes brrr
Spot on! It still took more than 300 deaths to beat it haha
I am pleased to see bobobiceps uploading yet another video wherein I may see someone having less fun than me and belly laugh like a European king watching the court fool dangling over the lion pit. Thank you total triceratops.
Also all enemies mimic tear when? I feel like it could be very silly, and I want to watch someone beat an npc invader with fire giant health but I’m too bad to do it myself.
All Mimic Tear run huh. Sunds ridiculous honestly haha
Ah yes, as a magic user i can confirm this is the average magic user.
interesting challenge, but you can also try sl1 no roll or sl1 unupgraded weapon
trust me they are so fun
23:50
thank the lord
🤣
No stamina and die in 1 hit?
Oh boy! I love me some sorcerer runs lmao
Edit: And you're using Stealth sorcerer, even better. Such an underrated build.
The only build that could make this run viable!
Now do it with a heavy armor to move slower, play using your feet and only daggers
thanks i enjoyed
0:00 cool
😎😎😎
8:44 I'd like to remind everyone that you can actually take falldamage when jumping to that bonefire
For some reason locking your HP makes alot of the falls not do damage to you. Which makes sense because the fall damage is based on your max HP
KOVAC'S RULES!
Sorry I couldn't resist but you have the exact same voice from How to survive antagonist
All Balkan people sound like that haha
Good content i enjoyed it bro

Nice ass sully!
demt the hollow knight ost make me sad
It makes me happy honestly. Good times with that game!

i love seeing different games on the channel, great vid as always
Glad you enjoy it! Dark Souls is gonna be the main focus now :D
best run I’ve ever seen!!!!
Thanks :D
the hardest part was the anor lond ramp that when you walk on it too fast you take fall damage
Thankfully for this run you cannot walk to fast haha
GGWP
Lets go new challenge!
Can you do a dark souls 1 boss weapons only ??????I think it would be quite fun
That would be quite fun indeed!
i was like oh its gonna be hard but not that hard magic dont use stamina then when you got to blight town i was like oh no poison guess resistance is finally kinda not completly useles anymore
The run was really cool. Alot of things had to be tackled strategically!
Challenges like this are cool because you need to approach them completely differently from normal gameplay
Exactly my point. Glad you enjoyed it 😁
*Sees video title* "Well, this sounds like a _horrible_ idea . . ." *clicks eagerly*
It actually was a genius idea haha. No Stamina run is a bit too easy but with 1hp, well we have a challenge haha
Wow I thought I would never see a Hotline Miami collab with Dark Souls
Doing a nearly all boss run on DS1 withouth even rolling once is wild. Sorcery isn't busted guys
Sorcery is mega busted. Whats funnier is that in Demon Souls its even more busted!
why on earth am i not subscribed to you, these videos own!
Thank you :D

Seath the Senile
Good name haha
Maybe I don't fully know how it works, but doesn't Power Within do damage to you? How did you avoid this?
Iirc it does damage, but it can't kill you. So having 1hp makes the damage null.
Check the wiki guys, there is an explanation there: darksouls.wiki.fextralife.com/Power+Within
@tototriceps oh it's percentage based and the game can't do decimals got it. That's actually really cool! Also, great video btw. I really enjoyed it
Perfect ending!

Why you didn’t use RTSR?! Does it works in this walkthrough?
Your max HP is 1, to use RTSR you would need to lower your HP to 0.2... thats impossible haha

Hey Toto, I was wondering, how do you have 4 soul spear casts even with the tin crystalisation catalyst, because, with that thing, you have 50% casts less than with an oder staff
How did you do that ?
Dusk crown ring
You can also buy and equip the spell twice
I forgot to explain that, i was using the Dusk Crown Ring.
Wait, shouldn't Power Within instantly kill you? Or would it not because your max heath is 1 and it only does 1%/second and therefore won't kill until 60 seconds have passed??
It does do 1% per second, but since you can't have fractional HP it does no damage if your max HP is 1
How did he use power within with 1 hp?
power within is a % based life drain, since he has 1 health, life drain doesnt get registered and he doesnt die!
Did you use red tear stone ring in this challenge?
RTSR is useless for this run, you could never activate it as you can only have integer health numbers. You would need to lower your health to 0.2 since your max is 1 to activate RTSR which is impossible.
For me I am struggling on dark souls 1 especially o and s
Patience is the only advice for that fight. Wait for openings!
I have won the fight but probably a few hours after this comment
How come you didn't use the red tearstone ring?
Because it only activates when your max HP bellow 20%. My HP is always 1 so it can never get lowered bellow 20% HP anymore... if its lowered your are dead haha
