@@Highground609 So.... if were Arisen uhm does that really end our lives I wonder(If were to actually get killed by Grim Reaper)... since many other Arisen has fallen... or does only Diamon can only kill us (thus ending our everlasting immortalilty)

"You're fucked my Friend" that is the name XD. I just shit my pant when i was on that dark as fuck place fight before the catacombs all dark qnd sundely a light and this song ..... fuck this XD and fuck my pawns
My very first trip to bitterblack island The FIRST room (the one that has hobgobs and a cyclops) Me: "woo, this is gonna be easy :D" *kills all enemies, death appears* Me: "awwww shit, first dark arisen boss :D" *death swings scythe, insta-kills 2 pawns* Me: "......WAHT" *purple light, other pawn and I fall asleep" Me: *uselessly button mashing* "NONONONONOOOOOOOOOOO"
+Cody Guerrero Yep. That's why you want armor like the Abyssinal Armor set (guaranteed reward for killing the Ur-Dragon while online) for the 100% debilitation immunity.
I love this song, it complements the fight very well. And for those people disliking Death because he only got 2 moves..? Well he only needs to lullaby you to the floor and harvest your soul.
Taylor Geffken i didnt knew about that. i mostly use my magick archer to lure Death to a corridor and spam ricochet hunter after 4 magick rebalancers. It crushes her severely XD
Everyone's always going on about how to make death appear,THOSE PEOPLE ARE INSANE!!!!,Gosh!Dang!It!,I want to to know how to make him disappear!,I jumped down a pipe,thinking it was a hidden passage,and bumped into this psycho in the dark!,it was freakin!Scary!.lol
Yeah my friend was home, was about to go down that shaft, and he says "DON'T!!!". I ask why, he explains, and I do it anyways. Guy forgot to tell me you're drenched when you land from there. Scariest DA experience so far lol
I was in that one room with the two chained cyclopses. Killed the first one, and then Death appeared. he was so nice to take the second one out for me. But then I realized this undead bastard just needed space to come for the pawn´s and my booty.
@Hymaungdr And it's also worth noting that Death's insta-kill isn't an insta-kill *effect* as if it was a debilitation (like Torpor or Petrification), it insta-kills through such absurdly high levels of raw *damage* that literally nothing in the game can survive even a single hit.
I love how they added the grim reaper to the game. It made the dlc cooler. He's scary and dramatic. Hope for a dd sequel with more awesome monsters and encounters.
There's a lot of great music in Dragon's Dogma... But the battle themes in Dark Arisen just take the cake. This theme is so fitting! Even though I hate Death for killing my pawns and me being (apparently) a very lousy player with no damage whatsoever. ^^ You can't help but love him and his awesome theme anyway! It's that good!
-Death: *Suddenly appears in the Bloodless Stockade* -Me, a Magick Archer with high magick and 4 stacks of magick rebalancers: COME AND EAT MY RICOCHET ARROWS!
Pre-Daimon Bloodless Stockade is the gift that keeps on giving. Getting to max level in under an hour just by repeatedly yeeting the fucker into the abyss is euphoric.
@@magnustheredxv MA's and Striders/Assassins don't really need to yeet him, they can use Blast arrows (Strider/assassin) or Ricochet Hunter (In a narrow space) to annihilate Death, since Ricochet will start to insta stagger after enough of them hits, stun locking him till dead. While Blast arrows do the same in one volley.
OH FUCK. This theme is so perfect. The atmosphere is Dark Arisen is incredible: walking around almost blind in the endless sewer-like tunnels, the only source of light your dim lantern and the glint of monster eyes just beyond the reach of your light... an ogre emerges from the shadow and knocks you down into the water, extinguishing your lantern... just when you think things can't get any worse, you see the glow of another lantern coming from around a bend in the tunnel... next thing you hear is 0:00
scared the shit outta me when he first showed up in Bitterblack and caught all my pawns in one swing. got so shocked I didn't even say a word, just turned the game off and went to sleep lmao
I remember those times when I thought I was ready for Bitterback Isle... Then the moment I stepped into that first chamber a cloak with a scythe appeared.
Same. Literally the coolest rendition of Death/The Grim Reaper in any game ever. What I love about him is how simple his design and game mechanics are... He *looks* like the stereotypical grim reaper-- albeit with no skeleton inside the cloak (which I also rather like) and, thank God, no flashy armor over the cloak or ridiculous fantasy-style scythe. I suppose the lantern has a fantasy design, but it's not too crazy looking. Other than that, Death's just a floating, flowing cloak and scythe that spells doom as soon as you see him; making the average player think "Oh, I'm probably f***ed" And the mechanic, of course is... he just kills you. If anyone is touched in this encounter it's game over for them. And when you damage him enough he just comes back later... you can't kill the boogeyman The best part has to be that he's not even a main boss; no story-reason tied to him having to be defeated-- He's not even a villain really; an antagonist, sure because he's trying to kill you, but he doesn't appear with dialogue or apparent reason; as though *it's just your time*... You can try to fight or you can run. The only part I would change is maybe the busted abilities in this game that make him one-shottable. I feel as though someone like *Death himself* should always be a major threat no matter how strong you are... and maybe give the lantern a more traditional design... but I don't think that's too big a deal anyway. yeah I typed out a bunch of crap most people won't read, in response to your one sentence comment, but like... Death is just awesome in this game, you know?
@@basil6501 Precisely. His simplistic and, for want of a better word, accurate design is exactly what I like about him too. No spikey death armor or nonsense; just a giant, cloaked wraith with a scythe.
I just learned that there's a big chance that Death used to be an Arisen as well and all I can think of is how insane the evolutionary tree of the Arisen is.
Fun fact if you look at the heart of a dragon you can see it has the arisen’s mark. So that leads me to believe that the dragons once used to be arisen
@@alexedwards1470 Yeah, Dragons are Arisens that failed to beat the Seneschal; that's why in the dialogue when you're about to fight the haunted knight in one of the colosseums, Ashe's (Daimon's original human form) Dragon sounds like his former Mentor, Grette, who was the Arisen before he became Arisen. She beat the dragon, but failed to beat the Seneschal, resulting in her becoming the next Dragon, and Ashe becoming Arisen, then Ashe becoming Daimon because he knew Grette was the Dragon upon hearing her voice, and he couldn't choose between sacrificing Olra or Grette- even in her Dragon form. Instead, he spat a curse at the endless cycle, wanting to tear it apart for making him suffer through a painful choice. Dragon Grette took it literally; and took Olra's life in exchange for the "wish"; turning him into a foul creature with the ability to destroy Arisen, and keep the cycle at a pause should they venture to Bitterblack.
@@whippethacreem7299 I assumed all the other dragons are former Arisens' that never got that far or died to Grigori, while Arisens' that kill Grigori but lose to the Senechal are reborn as another Grigori
Love it. The music that plays before he shows is pretty creepy too, was quite the atmosphere my first time in the sewers when I got drenched and couldn't see; Pretty awesome DLC.
As if Bloodless stockade wasn't pain enough, I round a corner for a dead end with treasure chest, when I come up to it, theme starts. I look back and sure enough, Death is there like "It'd be a shame if you lost your pawns at such a moment, eh?" then one-shots two of them.
Love this theme. It's terrifying when you're not ready (i.e. most of the time), but when you finally do face down Death... Also 1:10 reminds me of OoT Ganon theme and I love it.
The second vocal line of this song always sounds like "Think about Death" to me. Like, fuck dude, I sure am, and I'm also running from Death. Is this a metaphor?
This game is much like the demon soul games but MUCH more forgiving and not as frustrating except when your pawns are running around like headless chickens.
Actually this game is harder. Demon Souls has the decency to have a good dodge mechanic and having you fight just one boss. When you die, it is your fault. In Dragon's Dogma aside from the yellow classes you can't dodge properly and it can make you fight up to 10 bosses at once, and those bosses aren't slow or weak either. It's manageable and extremely fun but it does feel cheap at times.
+Great Teacher " 'Tis far stronger than a common Goblin!" indeed. :P Still, yes, it can be frustrating at times, like if you get knocked down only to immediately get knocked down again while you are still getting up. I *hate* when that happens.
Great Teacher Oh yea. I started a fight with a gore cyclops, in the middle of the fight a cursed dragon appeared out of nowhere. Finally after few hours I managed to kill them both only for death to take out my party. Still Considering I have been hoarding like a 100 weakestones. I'd say Dragon's dogma is more forgiving since it has a respawn mechanic with the wakestones.
Even without GD items, you can really play it solo. I am an MK myself with my solo playthrough. Currently at lvl 136 right now. I finished off Post-Daimon at around lvl 95. Your best friend in BBI for MK would be Ruinous Sigil. Try it. Yea, it is both challenging and fun. There is also that sweet spot for Ruinous Sigil to activate against Maneaters.
I remember playing and it was sooo dark jesus,and like legit saw his huge scythe coming out of darkness like peaking out and his lantern too. Seriously,that was the one of scariest moments I ever had in a video game xD.
@@Megatron_D-16 Me and my goldforged Blackwing Bow, along with my bag of weal items and two hired pawns whose Arisen are in need of rift crystals, are about to violently disagree with you. *enters pre-Daimon Bloodless Stockade with malicious intent*
Run away from him only to encounter him in the area after gazer... Throwblasts are the weapon of your choice and good placement :) 15-20 Throwblasts later you could get around 30 lvl ups if going alone
I remember going down into the lower stratum sewers. I was all like, hey it's pretty dark down here. keep going a bit further and unintentionally fall down the stair well, and into the water. which doses my lantern, so I'm like whatever bruh. and walk towards the tunnel, and noticed there was whispers and some slight ambiance(btw I'm using headphones on max volume). so in my total brilliance decide to sprint into the tunnel,without any light at all. and get stuck for a moment, I was sitting there like what the hell. then the music kicked on and scared the living shit out of me (I actually jumped and dropped my controller). he put my entire party to sleep and reaped them. then he got me through the wall of the stair well as I tried running away.
Me, a level 15 entering the plaza for the first time: oh look a light source, a new goblin type perhaps? *death appears* *throws main pawn into death and ran away*
Me: *aim maker finger arrow* well Death you came to the wrong Arisen *hit* Death: "ow...anyway time to die" Also me: "IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE 1 SHOT" *run*
Maker's Finger does nothing. Blast arrows and Ricochet Hunter with their respective periapts, on the other hand… *maniacal laughter echoing in the Bloodless Stockade*
According to the lore, he's actually an Arisen who seeked to revive a loved one, which led him to kill a ton of people. I think at some point he fell into despair in the Bitterblack Isle, and became Death.
Not entirely true. He went crazy from loneliness and the never ending labyrinth of BBI, and he thought of a theory of having to kill 1,000 people as a sacrifice for his dragon to save his country , so he embraced his calling as "Death"
“Oh! H..Hello Death! If you could, PLEASE! Follow me down this very tight corridor!” Death proceeds to clip through the walls to follow me into essentially a small corridor. “I Thanks, I’ma spam Ricochet Rivets now okay? :3” And that’s when Death knew, he fucked up.
yugioh guy Yeah. Only Akantor can do that, but that's a very specific attack. Most people hate Jho because he hits really hard and doesn't die fast. Also prolly Apex Jho Dragon Breath...
Death in DD:DA reminds me so much of Death in Persona 3. The bells and chimes in Dark Arisen that play when Death is searching trigger the same paranoia as when I hear the rattling chains of Death in P3. No periapts, blast arrows, or etc in DA or no homunculi in P3? Frikkin' RUN. At least Death doesn't dual-wield long-barreled pistols in Dark Arisen >_< Ranged OHKO's would be BS. At least this theme is epic and appropriate to boot.

don't forget, after you killed him once, his lantern can also turn you to stone :v
Well that's only compensated by the fact that it's a one hit KO and pawns AI never been updated properly for BBI, annnd that's all about Death...

PTSD track for low level arisen.

not at all. Melee attacks do more damage on death than magical attacks

@@Megatron_D-16 'preciate the Bone Lanterns and Scythe Shards, man. Ascending to (figurative) godhood has never been more fun.
Ah yes, that one sound effect (1:03) that reminds me of a lightswitch and startles me every time!
Eat this! 6000 magic stat! 4x Grand Anscension! Richochet Arrows!
You know that one scene where Spongebob and Patrick are running from Sandy after making fun of Texas?
That's Death when you aren't prepped for him.
"You killed my pawn...."
*Mighty Bend*
"My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my pawns. Prepare to die"
This game is much like the demon soul games but MUCH more forgiving and not as frustrating except when your pawns are running around like headless chickens.
Actually this game is harder. Demon Souls has the decency to have a good dodge mechanic and having you fight just one boss. When you die, it is your fault. In Dragon's Dogma aside from the yellow classes you can't dodge properly and it can make you fight up to 10 bosses at once, and those bosses aren't slow or weak either. It's manageable and extremely fun but it does feel cheap at times.

" 'Tis far stronger than a common Goblin!" indeed. :P
Still, yes, it can be frustrating at times, like if you get knocked down only to immediately get knocked down again while you are still getting up. I *hate* when that happens.
Great Teacher Oh yea. I started a fight with a gore cyclops, in the middle of the fight a cursed dragon appeared out of nowhere. Finally after few hours I managed to kill them both only for death to take out my party. Still Considering I have been hoarding like a 100 weakestones. I'd say Dragon's dogma is more forgiving since it has a respawn mechanic with the wakestones.
It is surprisingly more fun running solo. This is, ofcourse, just my opinion. I never tried playing this game solo until the ps4 version came out.
Even without GD items, you can really play it solo. I am an MK myself with my solo playthrough. Currently at lvl 136 right now. I finished off Post-Daimon at around lvl 95. Your best friend in BBI for MK would be Ruinous Sigil. Try it. Yea, it is both challenging and fun. There is also that sweet spot for Ruinous Sigil to activate against Maneaters.
This theme is so good, and yet, you aren't going to enjoy it.
I remember playing and it was sooo dark jesus,and like legit saw his huge scythe coming out of darkness like peaking out and his lantern too. Seriously,that was the one of scariest moments I ever had in a video game xD.
Nothing cheats Death in the End.
@@Megatron_D-16 Me and my goldforged Blackwing Bow, along with my bag of weal items and two hired pawns whose Arisen are in need of rift crystals, are about to violently disagree with you.
*enters pre-Daimon Bloodless Stockade with malicious intent*
This theme and me running was SO. FUCKING. INTENSE. I loved it lol.
Run away from him only to encounter him in the area after gazer... Throwblasts are the weapon of your choice and good placement :)
15-20 Throwblasts later you could get around 30 lvl ups if going alone
Before "Puss N Boots: The Last Wish", this was the only Death that truly terrified me.
Me running away while my pawns gather around in front of death
I'm sorry, It's hard to take DEATH seriously when grim reaper decides to leap off the bridge somehow and kill itself for me.
…huh the grim reaper really does take death seriously………..
I remember going down into the lower stratum sewers. I was all like, hey it's pretty dark down here. keep going a bit further and unintentionally fall down the stair well, and into the water. which doses my lantern, so I'm like whatever bruh. and walk towards the tunnel, and noticed there was whispers and some slight ambiance(btw I'm using headphones on max volume). so in my total brilliance decide to sprint into the tunnel,without any light at all. and get stuck for a moment, I was sitting there like what the hell. then the music kicked on and scared the living shit out of me (I actually jumped and dropped my controller). he put my entire party to sleep and reaped them. then he got me through the wall of the stair well as I tried running away.
"I just LOVE the smell of fear!"
-Death... Probably
No that's what the ranger arisen with 400 blast arrows and 100 conqueror's periapts said
@@ripvanwinkle9935 All fun and games until you run out of blast arrows and periapts.
*laughs in infinite Magick Boosted and infinite magic arrows*
Cuando les estás ganado a los enemigos y de repente empieza esta canción:
Corre perra, corre!!!
Me, a level 15 entering the plaza for the first time: oh look a light source, a new goblin type perhaps?
*death appears*
*throws main pawn into death and ran away*
Theme of Cursed King's Belt and Throwblasts near a pit.
When you get 100% sleep resist this is the least scary muaic in the game lol
Me: *aim maker finger arrow* well Death you came to the wrong Arisen *hit*
Death: "ow...anyway time to die"
Also me: "IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE 1 SHOT" *run*
"So anyways I started slashing"
Maker's Finger does nothing.
Blast arrows and Ricochet Hunter with their respective periapts, on the other hand…
*maniacal laughter echoing in the Bloodless Stockade*
Dragons dogma horror edition
the song od death dying to gravity.
Death is the main reason why I always run Autonomy through BBI.
Imagine they make a mod when Death arrives, he whistles like Death from Puss in Boots.
This will make for a terrifying experience in the remake, if they decide to make it thus far of course.
You need to start pumping out the rest of the OST my friend! I think we'd all very much appreciate it! I'd love to have the Necrophagous beast music.
*Walking through the sewers with squad*
"Finally, some time to relax..."
*DEATH APPEARS*
"RUN!!!!"
*[GO]*
*[GO]*
*[GO]*
*Slice* What a gaffe
My first time on bitterblack island i got to the gorecyclops. Then i met the........gargoyle.
Fuck. That. Gargoyle.
You fight death in this? What is this...WIZARDRY?!
D:
THAT MAKES SENSE! D8
No, he's killable. It just takes a long ass time.
Virge of Madness, that is all.
According to the lore, he's actually an Arisen who seeked to revive a loved one, which led him to kill a ton of people. I think at some point he fell into despair in the Bitterblack Isle, and became Death.
Not entirely true. He went crazy from loneliness and the never ending labyrinth of BBI, and he thought of a theory of having to kill 1,000 people as a sacrifice for his dragon to save his country , so he embraced his calling as "Death"
Rumor has it, this Death used to be the Arisen
Thank you for sharing all these so far!
Nobody:
Pawn: Walks into Scythe
Nothing like sniping Death into the abyss with a blast arrow loo
“Oh! H..Hello Death! If you could, PLEASE! Follow me down this very tight corridor!”
Death proceeds to clip through the walls to follow me into essentially a small corridor.
“I Thanks, I’ma spam Ricochet Rivets now okay? :3”
And that’s when Death knew, he fucked up.
Me : it's death itself RUN
Pawns : it's death itself... gather around him like he is a campfire
*enters dark place*
*Sees blue light*
*Theme start playing*
RUN, FUCK RUNN
RUUUUUUUUN
Lyrics: Youuuu are fuuuuucked, Youuuur are screwed
When death kills your main pawn
*ARC OF OBLITERATION*

From the Deviljho from Monster Hunter to Death. When will this torment end Capcom!
The Deviljho one shots you?
yugioh guy He can depending on your armor and a few other factors.
ultimasnightmare So it isn't a guaranteed one shot no matter what you are wearing or your defenses
yugioh guy Yeah. Only Akantor can do that, but that's a very specific attack. Most people hate Jho because he hits really hard and doesn't die fast. Also prolly Apex Jho Dragon Breath...
Death in DD:DA reminds me so much of Death in Persona 3. The bells and chimes in Dark Arisen that play when Death is searching trigger the same paranoia as when I hear the rattling chains of Death in P3. No periapts, blast arrows, or etc in DA or no homunculi in P3? Frikkin' RUN. At least Death doesn't dual-wield long-barreled pistols in Dark Arisen >_< Ranged OHKO's would be BS. At least this theme is epic and appropriate to boot.
That moment when you see a light in the window and think it’s one of your pawns stuck………. Only to do a headcount as you just opened the door.
at first, youd want to leave
but once youve played the game enough, this song is a signal for cheezy farming
