Dark Souls 2 teaches us something to remember when faced with many of life's great challenges: When lost and unsure of what to do, try taking off all your clothes.

Just to let you know, enemies respawn infinitely if you join the Covenant of Champions. You can join at the altar up a hill in Majula.

"Unfortunately the denizens of the Gutter were born and molded by the fudge sludge"

Script writing on point lol, excellent video

Dark Souls 2 firebombs, you say?
It appears I have been summoned.

Welcome to the challenge run community - here's hoping the algorithm favors you and that you snowball quickly :)

This channel is criminally underrated. I found this video in my recommended, which means you'll be getting more acknowledgment. I'm glad I found this channel.

You have to do the DLC
Frigid Outskirts walking!

The character development of you going from Rat-Hater from Rat-Lover will not go unnoticed. Godspeed, friend.

Fun fact: the "Girls can be kings, too" was probably meant as a joke, but there actually was a female "rex" (king) in poland in 1384, as king and queen were actually primarily titles with slightly different sets of rules, so Queen Jadwiga was crowned king as to remain in a state of functional rule. So yeah. they actually can.

14:20 About the "random ass update": There was an issue discovered in all souls games from released on pc where in online play, other players could insert items into your inventory (thus banning you), bricking your save, or even execute code on your pc (Random Code Execution or RCE). The servers for DS1-3 were shut down and from tried to fix these issues; the first update came to DS3 and DS2:SotFS was second to receive an update. While in DS2 the RCE seems to be fixed quite well, the inventory and save manipulation are still possible.

Now do it again, but damageless SL1 NG+7

I respect the amount of DS2 slander in the video while praising certain aspects.

16:53 bro just got so happy he let out his inner primate

The champion’s covenant in Majula makes all enemies harder but causes them to respawn infinitely, also using a great shield you can stand on the ledge left of the big circle room that has the second lever! Great video, hope to see more!

Okay, that was amazing run.
I did Ds2 consumables only run myself and there is a nice trick to beat Vendrick and many other hollow enemies.
Blue Sentinel Targray sells holy water urns which deal an extreme amount of damage to the hollow enemies.
Also firebombs scale from elemental bonuses which you get from leveling Int/Faith and throwing knives and poison build up scales from Dex.

20:15 no they are right. if you break too many eggs a dragon banks u, and killing all them stops it. you might have missed one.

About the attacks that take away stamina, technically you're not using the stamina when you get hit by one so it should be allowed imo, but that being against the rules made this challenge even more interesting

“What?? Why is there two of that guy? Ohh, it’s Dark Souls 2, they have 2 of every guy-“

“The throne watcher is fast but we are slower!” Hilarious

One other method that would work for grinding Souls without having to use Bonfire Ascetics would be to use the Company of Champions Covenant. It prevents enemies from despawning.

Great run, very entertaining. You earned yourself a Sub

dude, from humour, to pacing, to editing, even to the insanity of the challenge itself…you literally instantly became my favourite channel on youtube. don’t ever stop making videos, bro, it’s your calling. the michael jordan of content, except underrated and relatively obscure and…the analogy doesn’t work but you know what i mean.
