Not that easy but wasn't too bad! Happy thanksgiving to you too if you celebrate. :)

Thank you, it was a fun one. :)

Something to do with the dialogue cancelling your action.

Have to agree. Any time I don't allow myself to use bombs I always think "never again!"

I haven't, but I do like magic-only runs and that's a pretty good idea for one. :)

Thank you. I try my best but I'm far from a photoshop master! :P

Fresh and clean!

Styling with the backflip he did afterwards, rubbing it in my face!

I think this was the most I've struggled with Iron Golem in a long time, this wasn't the weapon for a boss like that!

@@red.liquoriceoh most definitely

Very close!

Not exactly sure what you're refering to, the bonus damage from two-handing STR weapons?

@@red.liquorice yeas

Yes, all STR-scaling weapons get the 2-handed bonus afaik, although I generally don't like STR weapons except for doing a challenge like this so I'm no expert!

@@red.liquorice strength weapon in DS1 is fucking ugly

Haha, well this one can certainly get in the way of the camera for some bosses, like Artorias.

lol, that's definately not going to happen! XD

Yeah it's good for quality builds and although the shot distance is lower than other bows, on a run like this with a lot of closer combat that's not an issue.

Thanks for the sub. :)

Not sure if this would be possible without Estus or healing of some kind, haha!

@@red.liquoriceI honestly thought the same, glad you did use estus And also, what are the twinkling titanite’s for?

Always like to grab them even if not using them for a weapon, might use to upgrade some armour for a bit of extra defense.

The 20k soul is always worth the trip! :)

I homeward bone'd to reset the Hydra's position back to its original location as fighting it on the side after it jumps over would mean aggro'ing the clams too.

Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it.

That's kind of you but I think there are much better players out there! Thanks for always watching. :)

@@red.liquoriceI doubt they can do a cursed, sl1 starting in ng++, runs while staying in a constant one shot status and not dying much despite that

Thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed watching. :)

lol, that was definately because of having jump on the roll button but I never liked it mapped to R3, serves me right I suppose!

The ending? Those lingering hit boxes on the head swipe attacks are always a danger. 😓

Thanks, I always enjoy fighting Manus but it can be nerve-wrecking with a relatively low damage weapon and in RTSR range - that slow R2 on the catalyst could've been troublesome!

I remember from my Smough's Hammer run that it can get in the way of your view of bosses so I was glad to get rid of it actually!

Thank you, I had a lot of fun with this run, I recommend it. :)

Thanks for the kind words, really appreciate it. :)

A few times, haha. Thank you. :)

Yeah, Demon's was my first Souls game so I've played it a ton, done SL1 run etc, I just don't have any easy way to record from PS3 and not really interested in getting a PS5 so no way to upload DeS challenge runs, I love the game though.

Fighting fire with fire never works! :p

You can walk along it and heal through the spikes, I didn't mean to run off the edge on to there though, a second longer and the homeward bone would've had me to safety ha!

I don't remember all the technical reasons, but I think it's linked to it being a guaranteed drop and how many Mimics there are (in the base game, 7) - so 6 Lloyds Talismans is guaranteed to get you the SoA from the first Mimic, if you don't get it from using the Talismans, it's guaranteed to drop when you kill it, which is why I always grab the 4 free Talismans at Firelink and buy 2 more from Undead Merchant. I think @illusorywall did a video about the drop rate mechanics that covers this (big fan of his videos btw!) I like to get it asap for increasing souls from boss kills, it's the main reason I do Sen's skip. :)

@@red.liquorice ahhhhh ok, my mistake was not doing it to the earliest mimick then, thank you for clarifying!

It was a close one!

Amazing run btw

Thank you, I do enjoy making them, it's fun to think up challenge runs or put a spin on ones that others have created. Every run is different even if it's the same game, you never know what boss is going to give you trouble, it's always something different depending on the rules of the run. :)

Thanks. Some of the RTSR setups I've learnt from watching others, some I've just found by accident, but I am convinced From Soft themselves think about these things when measuring certain drop distances, they seem too perfect otherwise. I don't know who those people are btw, so I haven't seen them no sorry.

@@red.liquoriceoh it’s ok! But there’s something nice about getting perfect rtsr set ups in the wild, and it would be even harder to set up if there weren’t those perfect drops
