For the Twin's fight I thought I was using Pontiff's right eye at the time, but went back and checked the footage and I was actually using the darkmoon ring. Which is why I was able to use the three spells at the time
I wish I was a good modder. I'd love to do a "Can you beat X with only Accain?" And it just involves frantically healing a naked man as he tries to punch bosses to death.
Hell yeah, finally ds3 time. Congrats on finishing this run!🎉 Looking forward to the next challenge and DLCs content, especially the Ashes of Ariandel with my favourite Boss of all time.
Great vid as always! Sad about the lack of DLC but for a low hp and stamina run that's probably for the best. The final boss of the first DLC nearly made me return the game
If I would have had my usual amount of time I would have done the dlc but I only had a week to beat the run and edit the video, but I plan on doing the dlc for the rest of my runs
Faith is actually really good against Yhorm. Lightning spears right to the face get him staggered pretty quickly, then some give him lightning stakes while hes down to bring the pain!
@@AccainGaming kinda funny that this video got me recommended after the youwy video where he says that ds3 has the best miracles in the whole series, and especially lighting stake being very OP, and then your full faith video where you almost use none of them xD
So a "We have a Belmont at home" build? Also, wearing a wee bit of armor to give you a more forgiving fight to keep on schedule wouldn't be a bad thing. You won't lose any cool points for not wearing armor :)
That's a shame about not getting to the DLC since both DLCs added neat offensive miracle options - Way of White Corona (gimmicky but useful for PvE if you know how to space properly) in the Ashes of Ariandel DLC and Lightning Arrow (very good PvP spell and decent PvE spell too) in The Ringed City DLC.
Great run! I'm disappointed that you banned armor for the challenge, though. You could've worn Solaire's armor for thematic purposes, especially since you ended up dealing the final blow with his sword!
I normally don't use armor in souls runs to force myself to learn the boss patterns faster, but I completely understand the fashion/cosplay aspect of it
lol thank you, and it's a very good game mechanically, the combat is better than Dark souls bc it actually has depth. BB so far is the only fromsoft game that you can do actual combos in, but It's still limited, whereas in Nioh you can do some insane combo strings. I will say the bosses are a bit lacking in comparison to dark souls. Dark souls for sure has memorable bosses, but I get it if it isn't your thing. Most souls veterans struggle with nioh since nioh punishes you if you play it like a souls game. Like, dodging is used more for positioning than actual dodging attacks. Blocking with the weapon is the better option, but you need to dodge after a block, or you will get stagger most likely. The game has a very high skill ceiling, which I enjoy.
Ah yes resin. I see you got Skully to paint that rename. A very multifaceted man er skull? Anyways fantastic video, humorous and informative as usual. Happy the princes had you atone as well
@AccainGaming you got a point. He's one of the easier bosses overall, but probably one of the hardest to no-hit. Think I got hit 2 or 3 times last time I beat him
@@JackStigma yeah I did better in my next run which was all boss weapons, and I was using the crystal rapier which only did like 76 damage. Only took me 8 tries, and I think on my most recent run it only took 4. So slowly getting better
I normally do all the DLC. It's just this time I was in a rush with BB video taking up a week of my normal time. I want to stream my first time beating elden ring so DS2 will be next since I won't be streaming until after christmas
Really? It did okay against the old demon king but it just felt a bit slow at the time so I opted out of using it. I do plan to come back and redo the run in the future so I will make sure to keep that in mind
@ I did an all Faith/Lightning run where I used Lightning Stake for almost everything until I got some of the later miracles and used those in NG+. Dwbry’s Gnawing (however you spell that crap) is what I used when boss was resistant to lightning. I used the stake on Old Demon King and maybe it was cause I upgraded the talisman more??? Not sure but as long as you make contact with whatever you are attacking and I mean like on their ass close, the stake does extra damage. I was charging the attack too.
@bloodchron1880 oh okay, that does make sense. With this being a blind run my lack of knowledge definitely led to me making a lot of mistakes. Hopefully in the redo run it will be a bit better
I didn't expect you to heart my. Comment so quickly, didn't even think you'd look at comments, most RUclipsrs don't, and I assume you've watched the ds2 parody "happy souls"
I can't figure out how you managed to have 3 spells equipped during the Twin Prince fight, especially since Sacred Oath uses two slots. Good vid nonetheless
@@AccainGaming Bold preferences, from what i remember kusarigama has high highs and low lows in terms of how it works. Great damage, but also animation lock and some fun stuff like parries and buffs. But you can't go wrong with weapons in Nioh - all of them are great and fun to use, and each has some nice niche to fit in playstyle wise. Do try to find a second weapon type - switching weapons mid combo, especially when they flow well with one another is joy on esoteric level, and flash attack of some weapons is very strong.
play ds3 with only the deacons candlestick with no leveling and no armor and you have to first try every boss in the game and if you lose to that boss your on then you have to start the whole challenge over. Unless you don't hate yourself then don't even bother. And no storm ruler.
I play on PC and Skully(CE). When it comes to stuff that has 1% drop rates that you need 30 of, I am not going to waste my time. So I just gave my self the items to trade in to save time
2:10 I play DS3 quite regularly and I’ve even managed to beat the game with bare fists only, but after all these years I’m still ass at doing the tree skip 😅😅 P.S. hjalp 😩
AN ABSOLUTE FUCKING SCAM that you made this run's idea and gino stolen it and got a lot more views than you any way you're channel is an absolute hidden treasure of a channel keep going
He's a bigger channel so it's not surprising he would get more views. I am okay with people doing the same runs bc most likely they will tackle it differently and will have their own unique story. It is funny how me and his editor had the same thumbnail idea lol
By your logic running a marathon must not be a challenge bc there are ultra marathons. That's not how the definition of challenge works. There will always be different levels of degree of challenge

If you lock off and turn away from Nameless King when he charges lightning strike, the attack will miss you.
FAITH LOVERS, AWAKEN AND LINK THE FLAME
RISE NOW, YE FAITHFUL
Oh yeah, sacrifice yourself for an authority who d*cked you over.
Most underrated stat
Anor Londo in DS3...
The trauma... Oh, gods, the trauma...
it’s honestly fine until the furry spider
I wish I was a good modder. I'd love to do a "Can you beat X with only Accain?" And it just involves frantically healing a naked man as he tries to punch bosses to death.
1:40 Nioh 2 mentioned. All hail the true GOAT of action games!
💯
Goated. Nioh 1 and 2 rank higher than some Souls games on my personal list and I've been addicted to Souls since 2009 when Demon's Souls came out.
For some complete mystery, Nameless King’s lightning strikes won’t hit you if you unlock on him and look away. This saved me so many headaches haha
I will definitely take note of that!
17:50 oh, that is a pretty common problem. When you transition into something that has a cloaca, all the plumbing gets messed up.
11:15 Please bring back Skully, we miss him 😊
He'll make cameos from time to time lol
Miracles are the most underrated thing in the DS Trilogy
Damn the view of the game is so high quality and smooth, very nice
I need ds2 and 3 im starting to really love this series. W video
Skelly cameos brings great joy
Great upload! Your channel has come a long way, I've been watching since you had 1k subs. You deserve the growth, great job man
Thanks Ryan!
8:10 that reference 💀
faith runs are my favorite in souls series
Hell yeah, finally ds3 time. Congrats on finishing this run!🎉
Looking forward to the next challenge and DLCs content, especially the Ashes of Ariandel with my favourite Boss of all time.
The fire keeper is so adorable

@AccainGaming can't wait to see your struggle against pretty much every dlc boss next run. Good luck with it
For the Lothric opener you don't even need to face the fog wall, just standing still will do
I gotcha, I wonder why speedrunners turn around
7:05 oof (that's a good reference lol)
Triple skully cameo? We are getting spoiled

I was pretty confident the armor wouldn't have helped me with the dlc that much so I figured why not just do base game without it
You should definitely try a continuation of this video on the dlcs! They are super fun and one of the dlcs has the most broken miracle of all time!
I do plan on doing something like that where I come back and do it again
which miracle?
@qwertzu1195 I believe he's referring to the lighting bow
In Gwyn we trust in Gwyn we trust 🙏
Ah yes Ithyrill, of the voreal balley
I'm glad you added Skully into this video. And yeah, why kill her
Which one are you referring too lol?
@AccainGaming Lol, the one you know the stans would dislike you for
@@ForeverBroken9 I feel like that could be both but I'll guess Yorshka lol I needed the chime for damage. No other way sadly
@@AccainGaming Fair enough man, fair enough

Yeah, I do plan on doing a trilogy run in the future with faith only so I can reattempt this run again but still get a video out of it
SKULLYYYYYYYY! bro is the reason I found your channel bc the thumbnail of skull lantern only run
He makes appearances from now and then lol
a faith only run is basically praying that you can kill the Bosses xd

Finally you back to ds. this is big day for me 😭
I HAVE FAITH!!!!!
Amazing vid keep it up sorry i wasnt there for stream i got in uhhhh some school drama u could say anyway keep it up❤❤
No worries, I wasn't able to stream this one
@ oh ok phew
I have faith in you
Bro took 53 tries on old demon king and he was doing way more damage than I was
Yup, how it goes when you can get one shot by the boss and don't know his move set
@AccainGaming you got a point. He's one of the easier bosses overall, but probably one of the hardest to no-hit. Think I got hit 2 or 3 times last time I beat him

Y‘know i love this game, but there are no funny things like the clams or pebbles.
I guess there’s the lil crabs, those are nice
I don't still find who play with Herald class on Dark Souls 3
You can get a +4 astora strait sword before Vordt
Whelp now I know lol
Technically you can go +10, but we all know the issue with that
Faith mentioned, les goooooo🗿🗿🗿
Zeus Jr.? Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?
😂
i think accain likes the twin princes
🥲
Also...wtf you can break the Demons legs off? I've fought it so many times and had no idea!
it aint your fault, but spam the lock on button at the start of twin princes and it gets easier to tell what move they do
Yea I love Nioh so much build variety but sometimes when coming back to a fromsoft game i get confused and press the wrong buttons
happens with me with the menus lol
wait i am pretty sure that the lightning miracles in dark souls 3 got higher damage in melee usage than in pure ranged usage
Interesting, so the closer you are with the lightning spear the more damage it will do. Would not think that's how a range attack would work
@@AccainGaming its a flat increase in a certain distance like outside of melee range it deals X dmg and inside melee range it just deals X+Y dmg
Please do a nioh 2 challenge run, I NEED nioh 2 content
Are you going to do Elden Ring content or dark souls 2? You also need to do dlcs of all souls games
I normally do all the DLC. It's just this time I was in a rush with BB video taking up a week of my normal time. I want to stream my first time beating elden ring so DS2 will be next since I won't be streaming until after christmas
@AccainGaming thanks just found your channel and I'm big souls gamer really love the challenge runs and your sense of humour!!
I have never heard anyone say Aldrich’s name as Aldrick
Dark souls but only praying🙏🙏
Bro if you used Lightning Stake on almost all these bosses you would have had 0 problems at all!
Really? It did okay against the old demon king but it just felt a bit slow at the time so I opted out of using it. I do plan to come back and redo the run in the future so I will make sure to keep that in mind

Btw. God any favourite weapon types already?
For niho or DS3?

14:20 storm ruler not bringer
Be nice to have skully i remember going for the plat on ds3 i had to farm for 6 hrs for 30 proof.
he is indeed the best
DS3 LEEETTSSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
You should try beating bloodborne with only shields.
shields don't do damage in BB from what I remember
@@AccainGamingHow about a bloodborne run with just the kos parasite? you cannot add any gems(for extra difficulty).
@@AccainGaming Damn... 😔
play ds3 with only the deacons candlestick with no leveling and no armor and you have to first try every boss in the game and if you lose to that boss your on then you have to start the whole challenge over. Unless you don't hate yourself then don't even bother. And no storm ruler.

Just do a bonus video later with the DLC bosses :D
