always liked how many bosses can be poisoned in this game. I used poison builds alot tbh. channelers trident poison infused was such a useful weapon in this game
I used a poison build and would drive ganks insane. Summary would hide until 2 people were there- and just in 1-3 hits the whip would poison a person and while they were away I’d finish them off with the 3 shot crossbow- or test everyone’s poison resist and drive 2 away, and because I used toxic it was really effective- especially after you poison them using a bleed weapon. Ganks pretty much we’re stuck on a timer unless they defeated me or my buddy- which I would just run off
Surprisingly the fact that rotten can be poisoned is an interesting lore piece, It’s a theory that the rotten is trying to fight off the growing poison of the black gulch so that is why it can be poisoned. Just figured I would share for people who like the lore
kinda makes sense that it doesnt like the goop thats corrupting the statues it seems to care a lot about. Also could be why his room is on fire, to burn it away
Ok but that Shrine of Amana jingle is literally the best thing ever. It perfectly encapsulates the feelings it instills. Edit: This comment is an year old already but I decided to come back and leave the timestamp for ease of listening to the jingle: 20:33 and also 21:04
I have a challenge to suggest: Lord of the rings - you start as a deprived, you may only ever equip rings, never a weapon or armor, leveling up and respecing is fine
I just wanna say you're a fucking legend man. You're on of the only challenge run channels I've seen lately that does scripts and not just music montages for your videos. And, as someone with 2500 hours in ds1 and a large number of challenge runs completed myself, you're an inspiration to want to make videos.
Bushy does Elden Ring challenges but they’re basically stream clips that he’s put all the relevant information on to help people who don’t know all the items and stuff by heart. Another good one is The Backlogs, he does scripts a lot like Baron does and makes good stuff too
Right on time. I just watched the Miracle run earlier today and needed a new Baron video for later tonight ! Can't tell you how much I appreciate your videos mate. Cheers !
I think the ymfah "style" really works wonders with your type of humour, I really enjoy your content, keep it up! Of course saying you're taking inspiration from ymfah and executing it well is like the highest praise I can give, so I hope you don't mind the comparison. :P
It is a usual thing to hate this game among all trilogy, but for me ds2 was the first dark souls game I could finish completely an it has a special place in my heart. It has got much more variety to offer and it is my second favorite From Software game after Bloodborne. Thank you for this video. It was a pleasure.
Haters will tell you are objectively wrong and that DS2 is a shit game. I honestly don't get all the hate since the game was very well received by most when it came out, including jornalists (well critics rated this higher than dark souls 1). This is just an example of how haters are cancer.
At least poison is good in this game. I like at the effect armor and weapons too. There are plenty of good and bad for Dark Souls 2 but thats for most games
@@JcHellspawn you arent wrong for liking the game buts its still a shit game. also critics liking the game really doesnt say a lot about it and them even rating it higher that DS1 shows how just how much credible their opinions are.
@@BigGuy1989 I said the game was very well received by most including critics. You are just confirming what i said. You may think its a shit game but that is not what the vast majority of people think, including people that review games for a living. You have every right not to like the game, but saying it's shit like you are objectively right is just arrogant. You can still not like the game but recognize what it did right and why people like it, which is not what most people seem to do.
interesting, everything i found online said they couldn't be poisoned and i tried for a while with no luck just to be sure, I obviously wasn't persistent enough
Excellent run! It's always fun to see how challenge runs that rely on something bosses are immune to go. My only wonder is, could you burn ascetics at the Rat Covenant Gank fight to farm the boss soul for more casts of Toxic Mist? If so you could maybe have more bosses be inflicted with both Toxic and Poison simultaneously. Or if you wanted to go Pure Toxic, it would save from needing to level INT/FTH.
The Mummy Breakdancing troupe had me DYING...please tell me they do birthdays? Jokes aside, fantastic video as always my guy. This is definitely up there as one of my new favorite DS2 videos. Keep it up!
Holy shit thank god for someone actually mentioning the soul memory thing. Seriously the amount of people that think it's required to beat all 4 bosses at the start of the game is shockingly high
Fantastic work as always. Minor quibble. You can survive the drop into the well with as little as 5 VIT provided your equip load is only .2 (ie Cat Ring only). Though you might not survive if the game decides you were moving forward. (There's a very old Blue Lizard Jello video that demonstrates this)
yeah i've seen that video, the fact that the way you fall dictates whether you die or not is why I settled on 10 vit because I read that that's safe regardless
@@BaronsCastle Fair enough. It's not like you'll regret the investment. And it's why I said teeny quibble. I do it at 8 with no gear but the Cat Ring and it's safe.
You really deserve every subscriber you have. I remember being shocked after I watched one of your videos a few months ago and saw you only had 200 subs
Watching these DS2 videos has made me want to playthrough ds2 scholar of the first sin again, I genuinely actually love dark souls 2 even though many people don't I myself do :). No I don't think it's better than dark souls one or three however I still think it's a very good and fun souls game with a ton of build variety :D .
Keep on posting this great content man. You've quickly become one of my favorite creators, and your sense of humor is an absolute treat. Cheers as always on another great video!
I have nothing of substance to contribute; I just enjoyed watching the video. Even if you're sick, your voice is still very much a pleasure to listen to. Hope you feel better swiftly, mate!
Another hilarious video, I genuinely enjoy this shit and await your content like a 5 year old on Christmas Eve, also gets me more and more hyped for elden ring to be released. You’re doing great, keep it up!!
Dude. When I saw that cut away. With the hollows, in low rez on the bridge, with that music playing?!. ... I laughed out loud like aa teenage girl hahaha. I literally screeched so loud i woke up my mother...
I woke up today and the first thing that I achieved was to finally beat Midir solo in NG. I thought I had already touch the peak of this day at 8.30 am. But fortunately then I received the notification of your new video, and the rest of the day had a sense. Ps. I just watched your video. Your skills are as always on point; you humor perfectly British the way I like it; and the quality of the content is as rare as a nice beef steak from San Michele in Apulia. Muah! Delizioso!
19:17 not letting the best part of battle for everyones souls rip is a war crime. I was so hyped and then nothing. :c Great video overall tho I very much enjoy the content ^-^
nice timing. Just as rewatching every previous Baron Video for the 50th time ALMOST got boring. Jk would‘ve watched that shit ‘till the end of my miserable existence.
Great video mate as always, I love your content and its hilarious to watch as your humour and comedic delivery hits the nail on the coffin numerous times. Your editing skills are also amazing and only add to the humour. I love it.
It’s always a good day when I get a notification about a new Baron video. Keep up the hard work man, don’t mind waiting when the quality is this high. 👍👍👍
This is very enjoyable watching but holy shit I could have chosena better time than when I'm ridden by severe cough that starts if I even think of laughing. It might kill me but I will finish this video.
I rewatched this a few months after my first viewing, and I totally missed that Owl City reference at the beginning the first time. Well said! Definitely made me laugh, plus I freakin’ love that song!!😆
You gotta respect the dedication this man intentionally pretended to die to the slightly annoyed radish several times just to provide some more entertainment for us. Truly he is a conedy genius!
Appropriately, mother nature poisoned me with a cold when I was making this so my voice is extra a e s t h e t i c . Enjoy!
Very thick and creamy
become najka and gain 2 million poison resistance
mate that's just insane dedication to the run
Manikins can be toxiced tho.
Your throat ok?

14:17 definitely deserves a short clip of its own on the channel.
Your musical montages/interludes are absolutely brilliant.

If anyone asks ballista is poison damage
I love Baron's videos and honestly happy we found another excuse to return to Dark Souls 2
For those of you looking for the OST that plays from 31:09 , it's called Shall Defend from Ace Combat Assault Horizon
Thanks! Was actually looking for it. Sounded familiar, figured it was from Ace Combat, but didn't know the name.
Manikens can totally be poisoned by the way, just takes a long time because their resistance is super high and they love to move out of the cloud
interesting, everything i found online said they couldn't be poisoned and i tried for a while with no luck just to be sure, I obviously wasn't persistent enough
@@BaronsCastle player testing can only go so far.
