Try a build based around the spartan Leonidas (he’s the,THIS IS SPARTA meme guy) I would recommend making the build with a spear, shield, and short/curved sword 1 handed and some armor that is light and has a red cape. Keep up the great work your videos make my day better!
@@Chosen_Undead6682 why curved. The Spartans during the Peloponnesian war didn’t use curved swords. They used a type of gladius called a Xiphos. Though they often used the spear called a dory with a shield instead of the sword. They wore a helmet that actually didn’t have a Mohawk called a Corinthian helmet. Their armour typically didn’t protect the thighs but protected the shins, they wore a red tunic underneath a leather cuirass which probably got replaced by the linothorax by the Persian war.
Just fyi, DS2 is in fact connected to DS1, the connections are just vague because of how long it’s been since the age of Fire in Lordran. Just as nobody remembers the kingdom before Drangleic, except maybe for Olaphis as he was from the previous kingdom, by the time DS2 takes place, nobody will remember Drangleic. Even by the time the old lady narrator from the beginning of the game starts telling us the story of Drangleic, she immediately assumes you haven’t heard of Drangleic. There’s themes of humanity, stories, and kingdoms falling and being forgotten because of the Undead Curse in DS2, and Lordran was no exception. They are apart of the same story, just ages apart from each other.
6:58 the idea is that in the grand scheme of the trilogy, Drainlec is one of hundreds of civilizations that have risen and fallen in the cycle of flame. As such, while DS2’s themes are different they do inhabit the same world, shown in how the primal bonfire bosses on NG+ or with bonfire ascetics have the souls of each of the four lords. 1 and 3 are more overtly connected, as 3 follows plot lines from the first game more noticeably
@@zzodysseuszz no, rather 3 is an exploration of what happens when an already dead world is continually used and burned, a husk of its former self, because every rehash is decaying, dead, or destroyed in 3. Plus it’s the finale of a trilogy, I’d rather it refine what works and make a satisfying conclusion than try to throw new ideas in and possibly fail
For the description of the Yorgh's sheild ring: The word Miasma is also used in the opening cutscene of DS1. "Nito unleashed a miasma of death and disease" In that context miasma is like a wave of destruction.
I loved using power stanced pike and partisan. The two attacks are obviously good, but it's also fun to stop the powerstance and hit them with the pike r2, which is a sweep attack, when they try to roll around you. Very dangerous build
Another sweet vid. Dude with all the weapons in DS2, you have so much potential content (and so much you’ve already made). Big Ups! Your commentary is awesome and I dig the flow of your videos, how you show where to get all the equipment and items.
I fucking love you dude, you're legitimately one of the only youtubers I'll day one watch your shit and relate to or just vibe watching like fr today was dogwater at work and I forgot all about that shit the moment I started playing the new drop yk? Stay cool bro I voted on that poll but fr irdc what you do next ima watch it regardless
I know this is way late but I recently discovered your vids while cleaning up the remaining DS2 achievements I was missing. My favorite backstab is the lance animation but on larger enemies (I think it might be the same as the spear class), specifically the Alonne Captains is where I’ve seen it most. You kick them to their knees, punch them in the back, and then stab them. It’s epic 😁
stoked to see more love for this weapon, it's almost certainly my favorite weapon in the game. this guy and santier's spear are both so much fun, i love their bizarre amalgamation movesets
Just wanted to drop a quick comment to thank you for getting me playing this again. Trying the hex melee build you did with the katanas (but cheating and using a rapier cos its stupidly op) and you've made me love this game again. There's too little DS2 love around, but you've made this game absolutely your's, and by extension, mine again. Thank you, honey ❤
Love the DS2 builds, my guy. Makes me real nostalgic for it. Also, you hanging with Bugsy is a real highlight of each video-love seeing my boy doing his little thing.
I know it's pretty different from what you usually do, but would you ever think of doing a build video? With a variety of weapons and stuff for it? Love the videos mate keep it up!
Here it is. The criminally underrepresented weapon. Mentioned this in the comments of another of your videos, so i thought to look it up. Sure enough, its here! Love playing the game alongside to your videos.
Dark souls 1 and 2 are connected. The ds2 NG+ special souls are the lords souls. The Old Witch Soul is the Witch of Izalith, the Old Dead Ones Soul is Nito, the Old Paledrake Soul is Seath, and the Old King Soul is Gwyn. Ds2 takes places so far after Ds1 that all the buildings and places of Ds1 have been lost to time, but Ds3 kinda screwed up that idea. That is what the Ds2 devs intends tho, as you can read in the item description of the Lingering Dragoncrest Ring: “A ring used long, long ago in a land that existed where Drangleic is now.”
i love yorghs spear so much. it’s probably my favorite weapon in ds2 besides the greatsword and my favorite spear in souls. tysm for making a video with it😁
By the way, if you kill Titchy Gren (that small thing that offers you the pvp covenant after the chariot) you can buy her chestpiece from the hag in majula, it gives more souls than Maughlin's robe. His gives 5% while Gren's give 10%
If you're trying for this build and don't wanna use normal spear, grab a lightning winged spear from mimic in the gutter. Its so much better and easy just use talisman on mimic.
Bro your vids are so entertaining, I've been watching for about a year now and I've got to say every video has been entertaining. Keep up the good work. ♥
My baby! This was the weapon I took ORnifex's first free offer from and have cherished ever since. Great spear. Love the spin move. Makes me become a samurai.
I’d be curious to check a double/powerstanced Avelyn run, I was never lucky enough to get two drops on a PC, I imagine you’d shred the base game by levelling hp and endurance, while finding the DLC ranged defenses just a tiny bit problematic
6:55 I believe that ds2 takes place in the same world, but very far away. and the stories aren’t connected in any way outside of linking the flame.. that’s just from memory though and maybe not entirely true
No matter how many yrs past when ever I see a ds 2 vedio feel like playing the game again and creating a new build there's still weapons I haven't used
That's a sick run, definetelly wanna try that! I haven't seen Fume Knight and Vendrick getting destroyed like that before! I would like to share something also for next time against Executioners Chariot that I hadn't thought before in my past playthroughs. Throw two alluring skulls on the floor for the sceletons, once for each necromancer. It is so funny. They hunt them and you can kill the necromancers without disturbances. I remembered what I did in Elden Ring dungeons
If you want a challenge, do Lost Sinner Sword. You kill NPCs you lose damage. Imagine it. Having to change it up & keep everyone alive. No extra souls off the rip. Having to pay to move the path. Good stuff.
Bro I’m not gonna lie, your videos are the only thing I look forward to on RUclips. Here are a couple of video ideas that I’d love to see, no doubt others will agree with me too - ds2 boss tier list , from the fucking man himself -ds2 weapon tier list (so far) - pull Elden Ring Convergence - speedrun ds2 -ds2 broken sword runs And finally, ds2 king’s ultra greatsword run, i never managed to make that shit viable and looks stupid as hell too but you’re the yazzzz
6:28 That heide knight drops a version of the heide spear called the heide lance, it scales with STR and faith, it's a 100% guaranteed drop, it drops from him specificly. The only downside is that if he dies anywhere towards the ledge or falls the heide lance is 100% guaranteed to plument all the way down to hell. That heide knight respawns once every new playthrough so bonfire ascetics are useless. Oh and he only drops it once so no ng+ to get a second one, he will only drop the mask.
The Gargoyle Bidents are pretty good. Only spears in the game with predominantly strength scaling, might be up ur alley. Still popping off ur doing great my g
Yorgh’s spear is one of those weapons that I never personally powerstance because then you miss out on the unique parts of the moveset, though sometime I would recommend trying some dual wield combos! Not entering the powerstance actually but just having two unique weapons in either hand that swing independently depending on trigger press. There are some really cool combinations, Yorgh’s and Sa tier’s Spears being two weapons that I think work really well when paired with a lot of other weapons because when one handed they retain very unique sets. Sorry for the word dump, love these videos man
For future reference, Fume Knight can't phase 2 if his big sword is glowing. It glows after the overhead smash he does to try to heal punish. Using nearly any item like knives or life gems will make him try to punish. Dig the build and the vibe. Keep it up👍
I highly recommend using the Ruler's Sword next. It's got a decent strength and dex scaling at C, and it grows stronger when you're holding between 300k and 1M souls. You lose the strength and dex scaling if you infuse it in any way, but it's your choice what you wanna do with it. As for the souls, just farm Giant Lord a few times.
DS1 really made appreciate spears more. Always used swords and magic. Decided to run a spear build as the dex weapons I had at the time weren't cutting. Really enjoyed the play style and you can get kooky with invaders, specially with heavy spears like Dragon Slayer and Yorgh's
haha it's a lot of fun for sure, I just use cheat engine to speed the game up if you want a tutorial, I made a quick one during my Ice Rapier video on my channel at 7:00, very easy!

whip build

I appreciate you keeping Ds2 alive man. You and Oro bring me joy.
The ultra greatsword backstab in DS2 is probably my fav in the entire series

When i see your videos i always wanna replay dark souls 2
Same
Same
real ones ♥
@@YazzmaniaI can't believe you replied I love you thanks a lot ❤️
Drakewing Ultra Greatsword? It's the only UGS with a dex scaling higher than str. Plus, the heavy attack is soooo cool!
My fav weapon of all time, the style is unmatched
I know it's pretty different from what you usually do, but would you ever think of doing a build video? With a variety of weapons and stuff for it?

Yeah I can try to arrange something like that, sounds pretty cool !
These graphics are amazing, nice video man
Here it is. The criminally underrepresented weapon. Mentioned this in the comments of another of your videos, so i thought to look it up. Sure enough, its here! Love playing the game alongside to your videos.
Another W video my man ❤️
Thank you for showing light to this weapon, this was my go-to for many of my play throughs. Very underrated
Honestly just came back to dark souls 2 its a nice breath of fresh air without dealing with any meta lol
Found you out of nowhere. You made me beat ds2 much love great content
i have been waiting for a video for so long bro and its finally here
Dark souls 1 and 2 are connected. The ds2 NG+ special souls are the lords souls.

Congrats on 15k keep that amazing work up and you'll double it in no time!
aye I appreciate it ! ♥
Me: Sees this guy uploads a video
Also me to my Ds2 in Ps3: good morning sunshine, time for another build.
Didnt even know half these weapons existed before i watched your vids keep up tha work
Ayy new vid got me buzzin love the content bro keep killing it ❤❤❤

just finished work and I get greeted by a notification that big man Yaz posted, tonight is gonna be a good night
If you're trying for this build and don't wanna use normal spear, grab a lightning winged spear from mimic in the gutter. Its so much better and easy just use talisman on mimic.
Glad I found your channel. It made me want to finish ds2
You can tell the video editing is getting better. Little speedup when opening the engraved gauntlet chest for example. very plesant to watch
Another great vid as always!
maaan im really glad that i still see people play this game.
Sick vid as always man. Also if memory serves if you want a cool item take all 3 dlc crowns to Vendrick after you aquire them
Bro your vids are so entertaining, I've been watching for about a year now and I've got to say every video has been entertaining. Keep up the good work.
♥
Thanks for this. I keep watching your videos and I'm not sure why.
This my first time playing ds2 because of u bro love ur vids
Bro, thank you for always putting out such solid entertainment
Something a lot of people don’t know the heide great lance would be a crazy video. It’s a weapon to definitively look into
The lighting mod makes DS2 look so much better, its a shame FromSoft couldnt have been bothered
Blame Bamco. They are the ones who own the IP and fucked From over when they were making DS2.
My baby! This was the weapon I took ORnifex's first free offer from and have cherished ever since. Great spear. Love the spin move. Makes me become a samurai.
Just commenting to let you know: you are amazing!
No you are amazing :)

You don't need luck? Just get a second one on ng+
Came for bugsy stayed for the build
Great video. Keep it coming ☺️
I lowkey only watched this to see how you beat fume knight. Your build helped me beat him. Thanks dude 🙏

thanks as always bro ♥ ♥
An another great video as usuall
No BS. I was low-key thinking of how you would do this since it's a DLC weapon
You actually made a good looking dark souls character. With bright green hair, no less. Kudos
Yo this weapon is so cool, probably one of my fav weapons in the series
