      There are many ways to make playing through dark souls “easier”, but no one said learning it is easy.
      It’s kind of like any skill. The more you practice, explore and experiment, the more prepared and efficient you are.
      That being said, learning to parry can make a lot of enemies suddenly seem less like a threat and more like loot pinatas.

    for the people that want the pc inputs of the souls dupe, first of its called the prompt swap, second what you do is get the 999 arrows, do the drop item prompt, set it to max, back out without selecting anything, go to the system menu, and then you have to have your mouse hovered over your inventory and a controller or any second input ready to press quit game, you wanna press quit game and then almost immediatly click inventory at the same time, you dont wanna do them at exactly the same time or it wont work, then you just go down to the soul you want dupe, press your select button on it, hit use selected and go down once to select 999 then boom big souls (sorry if im not very descriptive or accurate)

      @@IrvineTheHunter outside of the hidden Dragon area where Nameless King is, 3 wasn’t hard for me at all. Dancer of course kicked my ass when I tried to kill her in the early game, by the time I was at the proper level though I was able to kill her on my 3rd or 4th try, and I was able to kill most bosses on my very first try, still haven’t died to most them, even ones like. This includes fuckers like Champion Gundyr and Soul of Cinder and even Pontiff, they just didn’t give me trouble, but I tend to handle swordsman bosses really well. I got the DLCs but never actually played them, I just frankly didn’t like DS3 overall.
      DS2 was my first but it also the one I’m the most natural in, It kicked my ass but it also hardened me, now it’s much the same as 3, bosses that I know are hard like Raime and Alonne are bosses that I kill on my first attempt even after over a year of not playing.
      DS1 was my second game, I killed Asylum Demon on my second try with the broken sword, mainly because I didn’t realize that gate on the left existed, I somehow didn’t die during my very first try at Capra Demon (I was in a pure fucking panic the entire time), accidentally skipped Gaping because the Master Key just sounded like the best starting item, and Quelag was disappointing after how much of a pain in the ass Blighttown was. I admittedly stopped playing at Sens because the clunky as fuck movement and bullshit level design was killing me more than the enemies or bosses were.
      Now before you call bullshit, and I completely understand if you do, but I’ll also admit to dying to bosses like Prowling Magus and The Congregation from 2, and the fucking Crystal Sage in 3. That one especially hurt when I saw people online calling him easy. Again, I handle swordsman bosses really well, Dragons and other beast-like bosses aren’t too bad, but fuck casters. I’ve also never done an SL1 run because I don’t hate myself enough, and I haven’t beaten 2 without dying despite it being the Souls game I’m the best at and despite giving it multiple attempts.

Now hit A or equivalent, and you should see the use/drop/change order menu pop up behind the brightness menu.

    6:00 PC inputs for the prompt swap to 999 souls is
    1) Do the position Soul item and prep 999 arrows or whatever
    2) Drop 999 Arrows but Cancel
    3) Go straight to the Options tab using Home or by clicking
    4) Position the menu to Quit (so that when you hit E to confirm it asks "Do you want to Quit?" or whatever)
    5) Move mouse to the Inventory tab so that both Quit and the Inventory icon are highlighted for KB and M respectively
    6) Click Inventory slightly earlier than hitting E to Quit. If you succeed, you get the Quit prompt on top of the Inventory screen. If you fail, likely you just need to hit E again to cancel the Quit prompt.
    7) Click the Soul item and then make sure you're hovered to Use Item. Click that.
    8) Using the Arrow keys, set it to 999 and then use KB to Confirm.

    • @BaronsCastle
      @BaronsCastle  3 года назад +8

      Believe it or not, I've never actually played PTD edition - I think all the skips work, there are ways to dupe souls/items and buff unbuffable weapons in the OG but they're different to the remastered version - for the spell swap, you can do something called tumblebuffing in PTD. Its a similar principle, but instead of falling off a ledge you do it while rolling, there are plenty of guides on it around.
