....I'm gonna bow out for now 🙇♂️
Crossbows second? I'm sure you have your reasons. I just thought they would go first because they have no scaling. I suppose regular bows suck even with scaling (or you can't get pass Asylum Demon any other way, which I guess makes sense).
@sirbill_greebi3811 yeah mainly bows first because it's the only one of the 3 you can start with and also this route makes it harder 😈
Grumbus
you should do a triple run with spears, halberds, then whips. i love watching whip runs
gay pin dragon
Wow! The character looks exactly like Orlando Bloom from Lord of the Elden Ring! So cool you managed to make him look identical
I know right?!? Thank you for noticing 🥰🥰🥰
@@JKLeeds i think Dark Souls sliders Reddit would appreciate it also!
Oh btw if you continu to make such beautiful characters, ill be forced to make a fanart of them
That is all the incentive I need!
Duuude, I would totally enjoy seeing some fanart of him! I could imagine posters, I’m fact.
Lord of the Elden Ring

Composite Bow + Stone armor? It floats down!
If floats😂
fokin hel youv creased me lad
Everyone round the office really loved that one 🤠
Ol' slabhead
😂
The Dark Moon Bow is actually a pretty good bow.
If you level up faith and not only to the minimum requirement
Indeed. It has a 50% scaling on Faith, 30% Dexterity and 16 Strength. Comp bow has 60% on both Dex and Str. He was mainly Str and Dex based, no wonder Darkmoon bow did bad damage XD
Agree but it's an endgame bow and there was no point in wasting levels on faith since he wouldn't use it ever again. He used it for just for entertainment I believe.
@@alexvolkymore4676 I mean, at the very least he didn't need to drill in the idea that it was bad. Dude brought the weapon up and out like 4 or 5 times just to say it's still trash (even though he left the main stat for the weapon at bare minimum required to use it)
Absolutely iconic that you were able to make a perfect likeness of Orlanderp Blooming from Elden Lord of the Ring! You even got his signature green skin down! 🤩🙏 My favorite part of the movie was when he said “And you have my Dragonslayer Greatbow” to Brodo. I got chills!
So much talent to replicate his likeness!
Spitting image
I was floored when he said "It's Legoing time" and legolased all over the place
The thought of using only arrows makes me feel a quiver on my back...
It's pun pops 😵❤️
I’m one drawstring away from doing it.
👏👏👏👏
A perfect Orlando Bloom run, my favorite part was when you said “It’s Bloomin time” and then bloomed all over Priscilla.
😏
@@Dylpicklethe1do not bloom on Priscilla
All over Priscilla's feet*
05:03 "to buy the Andre of Artorias from Crest" idk what is it about this crest of artorias jokes but they never fail to make me laugh very loudly
I wonder what's next, do you think of a daggers --> long swords --> Great swords run?
Or opposite
Claws, fists, bare handed
He usually goes easiest to hardest, so hed probably start with greatswords and end with daggers.
I'm amazed that the ds1 character creation was so advanced that JK managed to make Orlando Bloom from those movies
Another legendary run from a legendary creator. What else could someone ask for
Feet
@@YOURteacher_100 no.
@@edicor1 fake souls fan
@@YOURteacher_100 bad cat. No feet for you
@@YOURteacher_100such a horrible cat
Darkmoon Bow can be good if you have good Faith investment since its damage scales with Str, Dex, AND Faith. If you don't intend to have high Faith, you'll probably be better off just sticking with the regular bows. Moonlight arrows though can be used by any bow, they're not exclusive with the Darkmoon Bow, that's just their primary MO from the lore text.
The composite bow and stone armor strat is actually in the IGN guide for Dark Souls 1, apparently its a very good strat lmao.
Fun fact, you can kill Kalameet with a greatbow without needing to get Gough to shoot him out of the sky. All it takes is perfect timing and patience. Maybe a little fire resist. But you basically stand in the waterfall near the back of the arena, near the chest, and shoot at the valley opening as he flies by. It can take like an hour, I would know lmao. Great video, thanks for doing the challenge!
This episode has some especially bomb puns. Most puns get a nasal air push out of me, but “Ingward’s fate has been sealed” got me laughing out loud
"Do you want this guy to be deleted imto a world of 1's and 0's?" Yes, yes i do
It's the humane thing to do.
I never saw that zucchero reference coming, it's a wonderful wonderful life
the four kings pain, I could feel it through the screen lol
great video! :)
Enchanted Composite bow with Moonlight Arrows at 50 INT is the strongest bow in the game.
I shall bow down to you for doing this sir
Infact do you like to wear bows?
certanly I wasn't expecting a Zucchero reference in the middle of a DS run 😂 A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!
Never not gonna call the undead merchant "Cranky the Tosser" from now on
Doing a bow only run of this game was already bad enough, but after seeing this I don’t think I’ll ever use a crossbow in this game. We thank you for once again doing what the rest of us are too cowardly to do
Tbf the Avelyn is AMAZING... In NG and not anything higher
it can be good up to NG+7 with an extremely dedicated build that requires TONS of grinding. But its still possible.@@toangreenlow2229
I mean it makes perfect sense because the Crossbow is at best meant to be a side weapon due to being held in one hand and having little to no stat requirements. If not for the lack of free aiming it would be perfect if you need someone sniped for a less stressful run
The avelyn is legit the only good/decent crossbow in the game and that's only cause it's a 3 shot repeating crossbow and can be somewhat decent and outpace bow damage when all three shots land.
Wow, crazy how you managed to completely capture the likeness of Orlando Bloom. They could be twins!
The Zuchero reference was so nice!
Bill Gywnton has me ROLLING sir!
the way orlanderp bloom was side eyeing in nervousness as you were talking about deleting him convinced me, he looks identical
Ah yes, the Andre of Artorias.
As an archery main in Dark Souls I've more or less done all three of these challenges as well, but crossbows and bows as NG and greatbows as NG+.
The Darkmoon Bow is certainly a trap to archery challenge runners, the composite bow outclasses it in every way, it even outpaces the Darkmoon Bow in its job as a Divine Composite Bow +10. The Black Bow of Pharis is nice due to its range, but even then, it's outclassed by the Composite Bow in damage and the Hawk Ring more than makes up for the Composite Bow's shorter range. I would recommend an archery only run to people, just keep in mind you want to rush the Composite Bow and make that your weapon of choice.
Again, I did crossbows in NG, not NG+, but I recall it being not too bad, I went full tank with Vitality, Endurance and enough STR to use the Greatshield of Artorias. The biggest mistake I saw you make was sticking with the light crossbow as long as you did. The Heavy Crossbow does far more damage and is between Avelyn and Light Crossbow in fire rate. It also does roughly as much damage as the Avelyn if only 2 bolts land, so against enemies that tend to avoid one or two shots from the Avelyn's volley the Heavy Crossbow is the more effective option.
Greatbows are... interesting. Due to their fire rate and stamina drain they are not that great against bosses, but they are fun to use in most situations due to the feel of power behind them and when hitting many common enemies, in particular hollows, it sends them flying which is just fun and satisfying. Unfortunately I never finished my greatbow run as my interest just waned as the novelty wore off and the bosses got faster and hit harder.
Overall, great video, as said I mainly do archery in the Souls games so another video on them is fun to see. Thank you for the video.
I did archery only in DS2 and that was, for me, the best way to learn the game and the bosses.
Since you didn't know about the Taurus down in the lava, you may be surprised to know you don't even need to lower the lava. You can just roll across, any% speedrunners do it.
These types of three set challenges are really interesting. I'd love to see more like this. Whether in the other from soft games or continuing dark souls with other weapons types like daggers or curved swords, etc. Great job mate
We gotta keep this type of challenge going for all the souls games
This helps for any run not just a ranged one, but you're not standing anywhere near close enough to the 4 kings. You need to literally be touching them to make their attacks favor pure melee AND make those same melee attacks deal much less damage (because the handle hits you not the blade). Still there is an extremely rare case where they'll use the grab or explosion but you can just stand next to them and heal as they attack.
It's incredible how you were able to get Orlando Bloom modeled so accurately in a character creator in a game from 2011. It looks just like him!
Wow, Anor Londo Bloom has never looked better. I loved his iconic line in Elden Lord of the Rings: The Divine Towers.
These runs are really amazing, it's such a fun concept. I suscribed recently and been binge watching your runs since!
These are some of my new favourite vids from you, would love to see it with some of the other games
I did an archery only playthrough a while back, and it was my only character I was ever able to win PvP battles on. tranquil walk of peace + bow is a cruel way to win a battle lol
I am so desensitized to Souls content that seeing challenge runs like this in 2023 is super refreshing
Aye, really enjoy these videos! Thank you for the content!
17:50 this is how I took out Manus in my first DS1 run.
The guy who bought me the game was so pissed, but I thought it was hilarious.
I had a +15 black bow and hawk ring anyways, so when I saw Manus' eyes from above, I just decided to try and shoot that, and discovered it was a boss, so kept at it...
Good times.
Magic damage weapons scale with int, and divine weapons scale with faith, scale really really well infact. So you would of had a better time with the divine xbow if you had like 40 faith.
I love the idea of these trilogy runs! Most challenge runs don't proceed to a NG. I'll definitely check out more
i never would've thought of this challenge, great idea and great video!
Love your videos m8, always get excited when I see you upload 👍
I just found your videos and I love how you are the only one that seems to use the NG+ feature and I have an Idea for one that is probably going to be a long one but can you beat Dark Souls with only coven items one coven at a time
Bro i swear you are the first person outside of apulia i hear talking about zucchero i love you man
Missed opportunity to make the ng++ run the crossbow one, and only restrict yourself to the sniper crossbow /s (love your vids, they're the perfect mixture between gameplay and humour)
So refreshing seeing these dark souls 1 challenge videos again
Great video you channel is really underrated
Keep up with awesome runs like this one
When I did my bow only run it was a nice surprise to see Ornstein using his projectiles to hit the columns after I ran out of estus
Been subscribed for a while now, your dad jokes are class. Thanks mate
Was re-watching this and only now just caught the sack ganandorf shrine… dunno how I missed it first time but that’s priceless 😂✌️
Just found this channel.
Amazing content and dad jokes.
Goodjob.
Thats the 4th video from you that I am watching... and I loooove puns / play of words :D
I love it to see other challenge runners comment on each other's videos. Makes me feel like a big, happy family :)
Also I'm positively surprised no one said anything about shooting in her face as well at 12:30. We've really matured as a community
Sounds fun, can't wait!
I'm glad to inform you that there is actually a kalameeth bow cheese, but it's a tedious one. It's a goughless strat, so you messed it by going to talk to him first: it's basically activating the fight and run back to up the stairs. He'll try to burn you up there, but his fire doesn't reach back near the fogwall. He'll poke his head up constantly and you just... shoot him.
EDIT: also iirc if you hide under the waterfall, he just pokes his head under from time to time to fireblast you, which should make the fight easier overall.
EDIT2: lemon deserves all the shotouts all the time, although the ring strat for nito is something way older (also, it doesn't always work because nito can get stuck on the skeletons... if you try it again and fail, now you know why!)
Anyway, you don't have to be a fan to know baila morena, just alive during that time and somehow related to Italy in any way... which to me raises more questions about how you're related to Italy, but that's another topic...
When an arrow hits a wall if you stop aiming it sometimes bypasses the barrier(comes in handy for the depths and anor)
This run reminds me that the easiest way to kill Gwyndolin (in my opinion) is with the hawk ring and greatbow, you can snipe him the moment you enter the room and he won't move at all
28:03 Zucchero? WHAT? I certainly did not expect this quote in a dark souls video, especially on a not italian video!
This channel has become the best source of DS.... new sub JK
Excellent vid as always bud
19:24 at this point with that damage, dying over and over to get avelyn seems more fun 😂
As italian, the Zucchero reference was really on point!
23:34 the binoculars only work by positioning your camera. You can just free aim but it is tricky. The character will fire st the center of the screen where you are looking at and directly in front of them. It is tricky for o setup but have the character face the center of the screen and look at what you want to hit.
These puns: "Because of his high health killing him takes a fire's age"
"Centipede Demon gets defeeted" 💀
Love them
I remember trying a bow run years ago then having stuff like this 7:44 happen.
Then going "nope,not dealing with this bs" and gave up.
Was expecting to see the censored banner for the up shirt of the Iron Golem but was just has happy to see his axe do the job lol
Your wordplay is the main reason I watch your vids man... 😏
Not to say all the effort and hard work isnt being appreciated but the cherry on top really sells the cake for me.
Anyway thank you for spoiling us with another Dark Souls vid king
Your dad jokes are legendary 😂 I love them
Whoa, I was not ready for Grealaag with the Quatbow.
May actually be the funniest thing I've heard in years hahaha
The darkmoon bow rocks when you scale properly but I get the frustration you had lol
I love this series. Keep it up ❤
My favorite genre of humor is "eye roll accompanied by sharp exhale as one tacitly admits that it was, indeed, pretty funny" - and "I Ron Hubbard" definitely got the best of that reaction out of me.
Absolutely random tip for the gaping dragon that's very specific; if you're using a ranged build, you can get yourself summoned and use the battlements outside to freely snipe the boss. Bonus points for putting yourself in red tearstone range and just pincushion the dragon for the host from complete safety.
"We pin him down with our aerwheel assault of arrows"
absolutely you should be in jail for that. sharing a bunk with that perfect likeness of Orlando Bloom from Elden Ring
I can’t believe how similar you made your character look like Orlando Bloom! It’s like a mirror image!
Spot on character creation I really thought I was watching the movie
Thank you soo much for that Avelyn tip! That has always been a major pain in the ass!
Great video JK, all your puns really hit the mark!
for the future you could farm the baby skeletons for 99 humanity to have more resistance if you want
Would be dope if you finished theese with a ng+4 melee only “victory lap”
I'm Italian and I burst out laughing when I heard the Zucchero joke. Didn't expect it 😂
Always good to see Ian the Sanctuary Guard.
I absolutely love how you use up all your might to avoid saying the andre of crest correctly
34:20 that caught of guard lmao
Listening to this guy before knowing his humor is nuts, I swear I felt like I was having a stroke several times XD until I realized he was doing it on purpose lol love it
I'll be honest the moment i saw crossbows in the NG+ slot, i knew it was going to go poorly
21:09 I feel like it’s really funny to use the non scaling weapons on the second playthrough
NEW JK LEEDS VIDEO WOOOOOOO
That Legolas is amazing. Orlando Bloom never been so beautiful!
You’re freakin jokes man. Came here from the ‘one punch run’ another person was doing in ds2
And now that I’m here… your jokes earned yourself a sub from me 😂 GG
The pun game is on point I hope other videos are on par with this ^^
I love it! I’d also love to see a DS2, DS3 and Elden Ring version if you have any humanity left 😊
36:27 Greatbow: *deals 286 damage*
JK's son: "YEAAAA BABY THATS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!"
“To but the Andre of Artorias from Crest…” 😂 I didn’t know Andre belonged to Artorias like that 😳
I am genuinely shocked at how incredibly like orlando bloom your character ended ! what a masterful demonstration of the power of the character editor and your amazing skills !!!!
Thanks man, that really means a lot
Alright all good so far, wonder how bad NG+ will be.
'This was, I think, the last time I enjoyed myself on this run'
Oh god...😬🍿
There's actually a way to cheese kalmeet, you can get stuck on one of his back legs as he turns, making him turn over and over, you can shoot him while this hppens.
It is quite hard to get stuck on his leg and I haven't done it in forever so I can't recall exactly how.
