As far as Orbeck goes, there's a few NPCs, him included, whose quests will fail if you proceed into the Catacombs. In Orbeck's case, if you don't give him a scroll before then, he will leave. Similarly, Yoel will die regardless if you enter the Catacombs before doing his quest, locking you out of that ending.

51:38 bro dropped the hardest transition and thought we wouldnt notice

as someone who has done the covenant items grind, it's very satisfying watching someone else struggle with it

10 months ago you predicted it would take 40 hours to farm covenant items in dark souls 3.  Well now we know it only takes 15 hours of soul grinding pain. My hat is off to you

all i got out of this is that Siegward has such a good voice actor

42:00 If you have the ringed city dlc there is a +3 version of both the serpent rings. I would highly recommend grabbing them

51:38 the perfect transition doesn't exi...

"Okay look I'm Rusty"

OMG RUSTY ARMOREDCORE? I'M SUCH A FAN

sounds about right

I’ve just finished the platinum a few days ago and would like to add my 2 cents.

Firstly, you dont actually need 30 Pale Tongues and Human Dregs, just 10 of each because the ring and the sorcery is the rank 1 reward so just 10 of them. And also, it’s a lot easier to farm for the human dregs from Aldrich’s bonfire and walking outside his arena to the 3 deacons

Also, if you’re going to farm for the items, I suggest getting the Slumbering Dragoncrest to muffle your footsteps and Hidden Body (both are from Orbeck) because it makes the runs so much easier and faster

For the gestures, you can’t get them all in a single new game cycle as you need to choose between Sirris’s gesture and Heysel’s gesture since they are mutually exclusive.

Now in regards to Orbeck, he will leave only if you kill Abyss Watchers without having given him at least 1 scroll (there’s two before AW, the Sage’s Scroll and the Golden Scroll. Either one of these will work)

I’d also like to add 3 tips for anyone doing the platinum.

1: Finish as many NPC questlines as you can in the base NG so that you can blow through the other cycles

2: Make sure you keep all the boss souls and dont consume them as there are a lot of bosses that have spells as a boss soul reward which counts towards the trophy; and there are 3 bosses that have a ring

3: If you have the DLCs, head to the ringed city past Demon Prince and get the Covetous Gold +3 which helps tremendously with the grind. Also, whenever you use a Rusted Coin, always rest at the bonfire and not homeward as it removes the coin’s effect whereas resting at the bonfire will keep the effect of the coin for the duration you have left. This saved me numerous souls on coins

To add to your struggle, you only need 10 Pale tongues and 10 Human dregs to get their covenant rings/spells for a trophy. So about 60% of the time you were farming those, you were just wasting time. No worry, I did just the same😭

I did the covenant grind in max NG with 99 luck and all the +3 drop rates and soul rings and it still took 20+ hours of grinding and I ended up over level 400. Crazy.

Iv'e waited so long for this video iv'e used your videos as tutorials for all the games

bro actually wasted time farming 30 dregs and 30 toungs when all you need is 10 of both for the achievement

Just wanna say, I actually used this video to help find all the rings in new game + and new game ++. And now I have 100% ds3. Thank you

using this as a guide is actually so good, ty for the good work, funny video and good for the platinum hunters!

This series had motivated me to 100% all of the souls games, I just finished ds3 yesterday and man what a journey it was, Ty miga

Dude this is genuinely one of the best videos I’ve seen, the editing and narration are insane. Great work, can’t wait to see what you’ll do next now that you’ve finished the all achievements dark souls series.

I was watching this like “man how have I never seen this guy before” saw he had 6k subs and 7 videos and was absolutely perplexed as you’re video/editing quality is absolutely insane please keep it up!

I’m just starting this grind for the first time and I beat the first two bosses first try and I just wanted to share that because I’m happy about it.
