Some people are mentioning that the answer to the question of this video seems obvious, and yeah it kind of is. But not only did I want to inform others who didn’t know about the great scythe or why it is good, I chose it to be the first video of the series so then I could focus on figuring out the editing instead of the run. I assure you that in the future there will be more weapons with less obvious conclusions.
On my first ever playthrough of DS (which was also my first ever souls game) earlier this year, I had a +15 great scythe towards the end of the game and I felt UNSTOPPABLE. Never had so much fun playing a game in my life
The reason it was one of the best weapons is for the reason it could hit the head as there was a unique head shot mechanic that lets you deal even more damage if you are able to hit the head. That worked also with the gargoyle halberd. They were amazing weapons in pve personally for the ease of use and can even get them early in the game if you really wanna get a staple of a weapon from the get go.
@@coraini666 Yea, the answer is pretty obvious I give you that. But I chose it so then I could have an easier run and then focus on figuring out how I wanted to edit this kind of video since I want this to be a series. In the future, there will be more obscure weapons with less obvious answers.
I just did a scythe playthrough the other day trying out new dex weapons cuz im a dexterity addict, rlly nice video, well explained and rlly enjoyable, keep up with the work king 👑
really good video, ur voice during most of the time is really listenable, and definitely a good up and coming, second-monitor worthy channel. if i can offer genuine criticism, the mic peaking and outbursts are kinda cringe and dont fit the rest of the format of the video, although i understand you have and want to showcase your personality. just keep that in mind for the people listening.
Those outbusrts sound a lot like Lemon from The Backlogs channel. They clipped a little, but it's nothing that the "normalize" function on a audio edit software ( I recommend Sound Forge) wont solve
@@angelmeier4382 I haven’t used the Lifehunt Scythe personally, but I’d say the Great Scythe is better. The gimmick on the lifehunt scythe seems more annoying than worthwhile imo, despite it doing a bit more damage bc of the bleeding
I think the sprint attack is what makes it insanely good the attack is so fast you can just hit and back up so fast it must be annoying for the enemies
@FalseYankee I think zweihänder is maybe the best weapon in game the stagger and breakthrough damage is just insane and the poke attack after rolling is also just op maybe this weapon in the next vid?

Gargoyle halberd my beloved
Amazing video god I just feel the scythe coming inside me
I loved clipping people in their blindspot with the R2. Good times
I love being at the beginning of a series pls more
This is the easiest question of all time. It’s GREAT, right there in the name.

Is the objectively best weapon in the game viable? Watch and find out!

@@spumly123 thank you for your criticism, yeah I’m using a really shitty mic and I am planning to get a second one soon!
@@coraini666 Yes, this whole thing is VERY inspired by the backlogs. I will try the audio software for the next video for sure, thank you!
loved this video id hope to see more
Thank you! I have MUCH more planned for this style of video, so be on the lookout!
Ohhh the best weapon of the game. Nice video.
PS. you can stun lock Quelag with one handed r1
Thank you! Does the stun trick work with every weapon or just the great scythe?
Just any weapon that does a high overhead attack, you need to hit the female part of the boss. I think the bkh also does this
@ Oh interesting
Great Scythe or Lifehunt Scythe? Which is better?

viable? 💀literally the best dex weapon in the game

@@absolute_nerdiance I agree, but I didn’t like its other moves. I found them missing a lot and being unwieldily in tight spaces
@FalseYankee I think zweihänder is maybe the best weapon in game the stagger and breakthrough damage is just insane and the poke attack after rolling is also just op maybe this weapon in the next vid?
@FalseYankee oh and you can get it even easier than the scythe
Yoo wanna see a trick shot 3:03
Yeah I was left speechless when that happened😭
not to mention you can fire ascend the scythe in about 15 minutes of playtime if you blast through pinwheel to the smith after grabbing the scythe
That is another thing you could very well do, but I decided to do the basic upgrade path for this run
I really think your funny and you should do some souls challenge runs i would watch all of them
Thank you!!
This title is analogous to asking how good a gun is at killing people.

Hot take: blighttown is worse than Tower of latria
@@justjohnny0718 I don’t like blight town but I hate new Londo ruins😭 At least you can skip most of blight town
The first time I fought Artorias I had a devine +10 scyth and it did like 1/4 of the damage you did. Im not using a devine ember ever again dawg
