The Midir result is ironic, considering the circumstance. The Wolnir fight reminded me of the Dothraki Charge scene in GoT against the wights, in that they didn't die, so much as they just sort of disappeared into the murk.
Definitely not infinite.
200 - 250 abyss watchers would kill him lol
@@Kevin-zz9du Clearly since they were able to do damage to it, SOME number of them could do it, but if the game crashes before you reach that number, and it can kill any below that threshold, it's effectively infinite.
@@Kevin-zz9du 200 to 250 Abyss Watchers would kill his computer first lol.
Where is the Wolnir fight? Did I miss something?
Abyss Watchers fighting Deacons Of The Deep is literally a gang war
Even lorewise those two would have gang rivalry
@idespiseamajorityofhumancr8504 exactly 😆 I literally know all the lore I played this game all the time after my friend told me about it 3 years ago I'm level 387 I recently stopped playing it tho probably going to download it back now
I studied the lore before i played it after my friend introduced me to it and I WAS HOOKED
i love telling people who’ve never played DS3 that there are two back-to-back main bosses that consist of a room full of guys just minding their own business until you walk in. it’s such a funny and bizarre boss design, and it’s interesting how radically different the fights are.
@Bluey2600 Yeah, it's awesome the Abyss Watchers fight was amazing and still remains one of my favorites, only beat by the nameless king
@@ThyFilthyCasual before i played ds3 in full, i’d played through elden ring and dark souls 1 (im a newer souls fan!) and when i fought the abyss watchers, they immediately became my favorite souls boss of all time! they ended up getting dethroned three times over in the same game by champion gundyr, soul of cinder, and gael, but i still absolutely adore them! great music and presentation, that iconic fighting style, the creative take on a multi-boss- i love it all! i also honestly really like deacons of the deep. it’s an extremely silly and fun fight, i like to pretend i’m playing dynasty warriors as i cleave through them by the dozen. it’s not too dynamic or challenging, but it’s a change of pace i always personally enjoy :)
My condolences to the one Abyss Watcher who couldn't beat the tutorial boss.
he came back with a buddy, won the fight and then managed to beat the next boss by himself, the true dark souls experience.
They just watch man
@@PunnyFuzzyeah cuz their name is the abyss watcher duh
Oh him? Thats Carl.
Whispers: "he's a little *special* if you know what I mean. "
he got unlucky
So basically the Abyss Watchers could kill every bosses except the 2 related to the Abyss.
"we are but only watchers" ~ Abyss Watchers
i mean, they were placed to watch over it. midir was placed to eat it. i wish i could cure midir. dude's been relentlessly fulfilling his duty since forever
Who is the other abyss boss with mimir?
@@alessandroconti380 Maybe he means Manus? Since the Watchers are based off of Artorias, and he initially failed?
or Wolnir
@@timelordacaelus5959
No wonder this legion was feared.
It's not about power, it's just that no one's gonna survive 40 swords slamming into you in 1.7 seconds.
They are powerful, just not durable as individuals
@@shem7146dont forget they are tehnically immortal, so no matter how many times you kill them they would still come back
Don't forget that they only deal 1/2 damage to NPCs for the sake of balance. They'd canonically be dealing twice the damage they are in this video.
Don’t forget their main power source the wolf blood dried up and these are just the husks of the uncoordinated legion (they have allies in the crystal sage and ghrus)
Don't forget that in every plim plim plom we had the more they could accordingly to the lore. So yeah
Abyss watchers after defeating a boss on their way to conquer the world:
🏃🏃♂️🏃🏃♂️🏃🏃♂️🏃🏃♂️🏃
Only for the entire legion to lose to Wolnir, truly unfortunate
@@Anthony-wf2cd how tf do you lose to Wolnir 😭😭😭
@@davidcardozo290 A severe case of skill issue
@@Anthony-wf2cd kind of poetic considering he's the only other boss in ds3 that ties in with the abyss
All I heard was
🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎
This is almost like a cartoon fight at times: a ball of dust hiding the fight itself, with an occasional limb popping out.
Yeah, the occasional person getting flung out of the cloud was some Looney Tunes shit lmao
just blades, limbs, and torn clothing flying about
I was rooting for the Abyss Watchers in the Abyss Watchers fight
That 2 v 1 clash looked like an anime dude
On bro I known abyss watchers was goin win😂😂😂
Abyss watchers still winning in the rematch
The entire fight was canonically what happened like 10 minutes before the Ashen One showed up
I love how the win condition for them seems to just be perma-stunning
I call it the Abyss Blender
Stun locking after great RNG really. Some bosses would've been able to keep going if they didn't use bad attacks
@@warlordjr.jr. crystal sage could probably have beaten twice as many if she had have picked good attacks
yeah, it's exactly like playing the game with a bunch of white phantoms
@@sythrusYep, my boi Yhorm was cheated 😔
Imagine being summoned as a Spear of the Church and you're greeted by 6 Abyss Watchers with a floating man watching them pummel you 😂
Make haste!
That would be a nightmare like dark crystal out of there
😂😂😂😂
I was going to say imagine being summoned and fight sixty watchers
I would've been like oh hell naw what the f-
Crazy how it goes from 0-100 real quick. They get destroyed by a boss with little effort, and then with just one or two more added in, the boss gets absolutely obliterated.
Poise breaks. Poise breaks are crucial.
Teamwork makes the dream work
And bad moves, the crystal line move from the sage absolutely obliterated them but was only used once as an opener
yes that's actually a normal dynamic with group fights, because damaging a group reduces it's damage output it tends to not be linear and have some sort of breaking point. Like, say you have a group of individual you can kill 5 per swing and each deal 1 damage per swing and you have 100 life.
5 => you one shot them hp 100/100
10 => you kill 5, lose 5, kill 5 hp 95/100
15 => kill 5, lose 10, kill 5, lose 5 hp 85/100
25 => kill 5, lose 20, kill 5, lose 15, kill 5, lose 10, kill 5, lose 5, kill 5 hp 50/100
34 => kill 5, lose 29, kill 5, lose 24, kill 5, lose, 19, kill 5, lose 14, kill 5, lose 9, kill 5 lose 4, kill 5 and you're left with 1/100 health
So you need 35 of them to kill you.
Now if we try with 40.
Kill 5, lose 35, kill 5, lose 30, kill 5, lose 25, kill 5, lose 20 => you dead, and 20 of them are left.
The effect is even more pronounced if you look at group vs group battle where both side lose effectiveness by taking damage. Like, having two group of archer fire at each other, a slight starting advantage can end up creating a massive difference. Like with a fight with 20 vs 25 archer where you need 5 archer shot to kill one archer. (rounding down to simplify, normally it'd be probabilistic)
20(4)/25(5) => 15(3)/21(4) => 11(2)/18(3) => 8(1)/16(3) => 5(1)/15(3) => 2(0)/14(2) => 0/14
You can change how you round or simulate it some other way you'll get different results but with similar idea, here a 5 unit starting advantage (+25%), ended up creating a 14 unit difference at the end. going from losing 20 units in the tie situation to losing only 11, almost half. That's also why getting the first strike matters a lot, by damaging the opponent before they can retaliate you also reduce the strength of the retaliation
TL;DR group fights have different properties to how 1on1 with hp bar in videogames typically work and they snowball a lot more from minor changes.
They're only getting beat so fast because he's using the ads in the fight and not the actual boss. Both phases of the boss abyss watcher have around 1500 health. The ads on the other hand have less than 500
This is progressively becoming one of those mobile games where you increase your army/gang of colored stick men by leading them to +10 or x2
Gundyr's one-two at 21:04 couldn't have been better even if choreographed. Excellent content.
It was so brutal
Gundyr's moveset is always nice to see. I always enjoy his fight.
Moveset wise he’s the best boss in dark souls 3 and probably the best boss in any souls game outside of sekiro
I was dead when I saw that. He freaking hit him OUT of the landing animation! Disrespectful af!
im a little offended the watchers didnt immediately go at each other as soon as they beat the bosses lol
Watchers vs Wolnir:
“Outta the way old man! The abyss is right there, and I gotta kick it’s @$$!”
*cough cough
The cartoon ass smoke that builds when everyone jumps together to fight 💀
That Pontiff fight was like watching a recreation of how Julius Caesar died
I feel like Champion Gundyr was even more accurate
Old man getting repeatedly stabbed in a sacred place? Yes. Especially with the flaming sword and giant cloud of dust!
The only remaining Watcher at 41:23 vs Friede managed to stop her guillotine attack twice: one at 41:27 with the quick double knife slash and again at 41:36 with a knife lunge, what a champ
have you noticed how bold is the only survivor of the 18 bataillion, (44:46) dodging and walking through the dark flames and to a certain death, he died instantly but with class
That, also the same guy that got casual leg blisters on Greatwood while not even aiming for him or the absolute MVP who got clutch stuns on Yhorm and the Demon in Pain which secured the wins. That's the dude who went on to be the main boss we fight. What a legend.
20:59 that was smooth Gundyr. Professional decking to the last two.
very smooth
Funny thing is that this is probably what the Abyss Watchers actually did in their prime.
On a side note, it goes to show how powerful the Ashen One is that he can defeat an Abyss eating dragon that is stronger that 127+ Abyss Watchers *With His Bare Hands*
And the Ashen One was canonically the worst of the worst, the *VERY LAST SHOT* at preventing the end of the world.
The Ashen One is literally that thought experiment of a chimpanzee writing the hamlet when given infinite time with a typewriter
Ashen one is literally immortal, he has all the time in the world, and can kill anything with enough patience.
The Watchers dealt 3x Lothric's max hp. Boy they sure as shit didn't want any more resurrecting shenanigans
20:59 Gundyr eliminating the 4 abyss watchers was maybe the cleanest, coldest thing I've ever seen
That is of course besides Nameless King soloing 30 abyss watchers wow
That Vordt fight was *_scary_* close.
What an odd fighting style, yet strangely familiar; I can't quite place why.
They followed in the footsteps of Artorias
They do remind me of someone...
Yea… I can’t remember his name, eh, probally wasn’t very important
oh shit I wooshed it
mmmmm.... mmmmm..OH
43:29 "My fallen comrades, i've won for the sake of us!"
43:45 "Oh sh*t"
Who would win: a pontiff knight well along into becoming a beast or a somersaulting Artorias fanboy
I wanna see a gang war between the Abyss Watchers and Pontiff Knights.
Midir wiping the floor with an army of charred abyss watchers was so satisfying
5:59 That's a pretty slick opening from the Watchers, fanning out like that.
9:43 "How many times do we have to teach you this LESSON old man?"
JAJAJAJAAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA!!!! best comment!
So basically if the Undead Legion was actually real world Legion-sized they probably would've been the single most busted force in the entire world. Given that a real world Legion ranged in size from between 4,000-6,000 men.
Even the lore says that the Undead Legion could destroy entire countries if the Abyss threatened to spread there.
@@valentinvas6454 Yeah, High Lord Wolnir was effectively the emperor of Carthus (his crown is forged from fallen kings) and even he was defeated by the Abyss Watchers.
It was a legion, given the fact that they felled entire nations.
The Abyss Watchers are not the entire Undead Legion tho, you have the sorcerers, the un-named soldiers that became the Gru, the exiles and the Followers
@@CresttheCrestfallenI always assumed the ghru were descendants of the abyssifies townspeople of Oolacile, considering where they're located (faron is Oolacile) and their similar horned heads.
35:12 “Fuck you in particular.” - Nameless King
LMAO
Alternative title: How many abyss watchers does it take to stunlock each boss?
Midir: "You battle The Abyss? I eat that for breakfast."
They’re infected, too, so they’re basically popcorn for him to snack on.
Oceiros couldve gone far if he didnt lose his composure so easily
True. That 1st opening swing he did against the Abyss Watchers the first 2 times probably would've worked a lot of the time. One shot, insta-wipe.
Typical stage dad…one thing goes wrong? Blame the kid, have a public freak out and get overwhelmed by criticism (swords).
Pantagana's like "Ok. 75 Abyss Watchers against anyone except Midir and Wolnir is overkill so imma make this video to give the bosses a 'chance'. Not that they have any to begin with"
I like how it looks like a claymation movie when there's 25+ Abyss Watchers. It actually looks kinda cool
Dark Souls deadliest weapon: Wolnir's armpits
I like how it isn't a question of who can beat them, it's a question of how many the other boss can take down before being overwhelmed.
21:08
That Gundyr left jab was smoothly delivered, damn!
Crystal sage doing better than i thought
Greatly helped by their attempt to fight someone locked outside the boss room by running at the wall. Couldn't have done it without that winning strategy.
@@NetherStrayI bet it was the hollow just outside the door.
@@NetherStray And ofcourse this lazy shitass channel wouldn't just do another take after accounting for the weird AI.
13:48 I love the way they all completely biff that intro attack
07:05 I love how he went for a stab, missed and then began to walk backwards as if contemplating, whether he could get away with it
also: the Deacons of the Deep can kill 5 fully armored Knights...
meanwhile the screaming manpig that is Vordt cannot get a single one...
let that sink in for a bit
Love how at 51:00 the watchers randomly avoided Halflight's first attack but then roll into it like buffons.
Watching 30 abyss watchers struggle against the Nameless King makes one even prouder for being able to beat him.
Thank you From Software.
nameless king really be living up to that god of war title
The Abyss Watcher against Vordt literally just doing what every DS3 player does against Vordt was hilarious
Sad that Pontif lost because he did'nt use his normal attack at the start.
A lot of bosses lost before they should.
If it was a best of 3 or smth I bet some would have gotten 1-3 more Watchers.
Crystal Sage on Round 1: "that was easy."
Crystal Sage on Round 2: "FUCK FUCK FUCK!"
This is Cinema. There is so much to say here.
First of: Dark Souls games are beautiful, they are as fun watching as they are playing, not only for the funny moments and remembrance but also because when watching someone else play you can appreciate the details, which cannot be done when one is doing the running and crying for dear life.
The battles are so intense an chaotic, expected from these masterpieces.
Second, I love how very indicative of each boss difficulty level is the amount of Watchers they can take.(Except for the Rotten Greatwood plot armor).
Third, I don’t know if this video is definite proof that offense is the best defense or the other way around.
But it proved that unless friendly fire was a thing in real life, sword fighting would always be mostly one v one.
Anyways, amazing video. Can’t wait to watch what you pit next.
This was insanely cool to watch bro. Great content
Watchers have discovered the ultimate technique... Jumping people
"THEY JUMPIN ME"
*gang violence
"ALL RIGHT MEN! GROUP UP- AND HIT IT! TILL IT! DIES!"
- SAO Abridged.
Abyss watchers can beat 5 abyss watchers feels like a meme
Also.. If you dont mind could you do another speed up till they dissapear character video, maybe abyss watchers. Those make my day so
Much that i end up choking on whatever i drink.
You mean the ones where I set their speed to -1? Like the Fire Keeper spin video?
@@Pantagana yeah yeah that, it cracks me so hard seeing that sorta stuff. i always thought you were just escalating the numbers but I guess -1 makes sense for the game as well.
Midir the best. My favorite fight in the game too.. been playing DS3 a ton lately. Best game in the series
Yeah i agree! I picked up playing aswell. Need 3 more achievements and love to play this game. Damn, what a pearl it is!!
8:16 was so fucking anime, I love it.
There is something very satisfying about a boss knocking half the force down with a single swing. Also satisfying seeing the bros just go ham on a guy.
Thanks a lot for your video. Great job!
The fact that the game even supports this kind of experiment is really cool.
I'm glad to see your channel has blown up since early vids. I remember when I gave the first gauntlet suggestion you took. Good times.
Are you the one that suggested the Havel Knight vs Bosses?
@@PantaganaI don’t know if I was the original suggester but I have on numerous videos. I love me some Havelin.
@@Pantagana it was me yeah :)
@@errorcringyname4044 That was a very good suggestion.
This is so well done and entertaining
I interviewed some of the Abyss Watchers after the beating they took on Nameless King battle, most of them said the same thing, bad camera angles on the first phase
My man Yhorm finally had his moment of glory ❤️
Nothing is more satisfying than when their numbers start getting high a boss cleaves half of them or more to death in a single shot.
Bro Midir's fight was just constant satisfaction
Friede burning almost the entire unit alive whilst standing up was something else
There’s something funny about them fleeing in terror and failing once Lorian summons Lothric lmao
Man Midir is just too badass😂😂 god I love him
51:56
"Guys... guys. Halflight would be that way?"
"HALFLIIIGHT!"
Midir straight up said: "I'm gonna be the ENTIRE problem."
How satisfying the sister friede fight was. Can't outrun these maniacs.
Can we acknowledge the fact that a worker hollow survived the fall into great woods second phase
If Pontiff didn’t have that long ass animation for the explosion he likely would’ve cleared double digits. He was giving them the business until game design screwed him over lol
Yeah looks like eating the abyss is better than just watching it
This is such a good idea
1 AW vs AWs is just like a group of students return to take down their corrupted master.
Watching them slide to each other is so satisfying
That vordt battle was cursed lmao The Abyss Watcher just kept spamming the rolling overhead slam and actually got away with it.
It's crazy how one extra guy can make the difference between stomping and getting stomped. Cool idea for a video. I wonder how it'd go with the phase 2 Abyss Watcher instead
When it comes to the bigger/more evasive bosses, the question becomes: How many Abyss Watchers does it take to absolutely blitz them?
8:17 the overlapping dash audio sounds so cool
This is always so epic
Damn, no wonder they just Abyss "Watchers", they could not do shit about Wolnir
Abyss watchers vs abyss watchers is just what was happening before we showed up
I wish Pontiff was given a lot more HP & a lot more poise. Should've been one of final bosses of the game... too badass a character to be the pre-boss before 3 lords of Cinder
Morgott moment
During development he was slotted to be the final boss so we almost got your wish
most of the time, it just depends a lot on which attack the boss in question uses and how much the tracking messes up or not xD
Do abyss watchers really have that little hp? Like I know they have low HP, but it feels almost comedic how squishy they are here.
I think this is the secondary Abyss Watcher that spawns after the main boss and yeah those are very weak. Without any modding I've seen darkwraiths glitching into the boss room and even those can take these watchers down in a few hits.
Yes, they have 367 HP each. Only the main one (the one that the boss health bar belongs to) has 1548 HP.
@@Pantaganaonly 367? Damm
That punch looked personal 21:08
49:55 is funny as the painting knife thrower takes out an abyss watcher in seconds before doing the same to two of them
21:46 did I just witness Gundyr getting mercilessly jumped?
Amazing midir was messing those boys up. There was no ancient Wyvern though. 😢
That would have just been unnecessary suffering on our part, that thing takes barely any damage without the air attack
@@sythrusgood point. Probably would have also just ended up crashing
Oh I'm gonna be so productive today before I start work!
*also me watching a 1h long video on how many Abyss Watchers can each Boss beat and I don't even play souls games*
I must say that this trade at 8:17 is a thing of beauty.
- this has to be the 1st time I've seen the Pontiff coaxed into doing something other than the opening charging right slash---vvvveeeeeerrrrryyyyyyy interesting
- 25:32 fantastic "SURPRISE bitches" moment
WIthin a 24-hr period where two other intriguing videos also popped up, I'm glad to see that Da Panta produces the one that tugs at my heartstrings. Majestic!
I was rooting for that one Abyss Watcher in the Crystal Sage 1v2, bro weaved like 6 attacks before going down
I wish we saw more big battles from this game like armies clashing or something it would have looked dope
It’s amazing watching Midir just destroy a million abyss watchers with his fire and wide swipes. That dragon is just so fucking strong. 😂
Happy Thanksgiving Pantagana!
Midir raw as hell as always
Abyss Watchers: 💀
Midir: 😈
This video is great and i had fun watching it. I don't want to diminish that.
But i feel like you would need to run mulitple repeats of each encounter to remove randomness. Vodt could have probably slayn 1 Watcher if the rng was slightly better. Same goes for other fights.
This is real science!
That pontiff kill was amazing
