Ahah amazing work. Finished DS1 once hardly, not my game. But it was fun watching a glitchless run where a pro passes the places I passed in 1 day in 1 minute. Practice pays off kudos
Dark souls is my favorite video game, I really loved your speedrun. Super clever and intuitive~ my favorite part was in the tomb of giants… your jumping was so cool.
Elden Ring actually uses the same fall damage system as DS1. The only thing they changed is the amount of %damage you take in elden ring, and when you start taking that damage (Earlier in DS1, the cutoff is like 5meters in DS1 vs 12m or so in Elden RIng). Meaning that even if a fall is almost lethal, it will only ever do up to 1/2 your HP bar (less with more dexterity) Makes for a very ... confusing system. Really feels like they didn't flesh the fall damage in Elden Ring out (they didn't)
My record was 2:32 :D I can imagine doing it for 2 hours, but what a gap between us. It feels like a lot of work, thank you very much for the video, I’ll try to repeat a couple of tricks.
Very nice run, i finish it once but enjoy every second. I play it as my first soul game DS1 remaster last month, for today i finished DS1 DS2 and today i finish Soul of Cider DS 3. Great job man, well played, maybe i try you run for once ;) :D
Amazing run! I want to use it as a reference as my current PB is 10:40:45 (using no routing or real strategy) I have a question, why do you drop 1 large titanite shard? I forget exactly where it is in the run
Thank you :) You mean the shard I dropped in the 4 Kings fight? It's just so I can see where the center of the arena is, which is very helpful if you know the second king's spawn location since you can immediately run there when the first king is dead. You can use any item that you don't need. GL with your runs
First, congratulations on the run, I'm taking it as a reference to speedrun too, but I want to clear up a doubt, why didn't Nito damage you when you defended with crescent axe? I tried, but I took it and died LOL, could you explain? that attack he hits the ground and his sword leaves the ground too.
Thanks! When blocking with certain weapon types your character takes a stance where the feet are quite far apart, which is why the attack hitbox doesnt touch them. Maybe you didnt stand completely still while doing it, if your character moves even just a little bit it will touch the edge of your leg. Hope this helps
I am late but still very impressive run. Speedrunning dark souls glitchless myself too, now I am at 58 minutes PB! But why do you use that other shield bought from andre the blacksmith while running through rafters in anor londo?
Thank you :) it's so I can push enemies out of the way if they decide to come too close, while still having a shield to block. Congrats on your sub 1 hour pb and best of luck!
Killing Ingward at the start is a really cool strat. I wonder why you killed the crystal lizard in Lost Izalith, given how optimized the run is. Did you upgrade the BKH a second time super quickly with the Weapon Smithbox and I just didn't notice or was it backup or a setup for something?
Hey, first of all, thanks for the run, i have been using it as a base to try my runs, second, im interested in the skin change color script, but im having a hard time finding it, could you give me info about the script? thank you
Hey, I hope your runs are going well! The color script is a modified version of this one: github.com/goofball564/DSSkinColorRandomizer/tree/main It sets your color randomly each loading screen and I changed it to always choose the same one. Hope this helps
Why the 2nd visit to blight town though? Wouldn't it be faster to get the bonfire straight after the spider lady and warp there later, instead of running all the way there again from firelink?
Yes it would be faster to warp instead of running there but then you wouldn't be able to homeward bone back to firelink after quelaag which would cost even more time
Would it have been faster to use the daughter of chaos bonfire after beating quelaag the first time so could warp back there later instead of running all the way back through valley of drakes and blighttown?
Thank you! I was wondering the same and went through every comments to find the answer to this question. Thank you OP for taking the time to answer all of us 🙏
why i have to wait so much more after i kill gwyn? also if I rejoin to the game I m not teleported out of boss area so still i have to run to the edning
If you kill Gwyn with a parry then the fight ends immediately since the death animation is skipped. Then you have to quitout very fast (just when you get the soul drop) so that the fight counts as won, but the arena is still active for a few frames, so that your respawn position doesnt get updated and you rejoin outside of the arena and get the cutscene immediately.
Thinking about trying this run if I have free time but enjoying this even still! As someone who doesn't speedrun at all why do you quit out after beating the Asylum Demon and what happens with Queelag if you don't have BK Halberd?
I just got to Sif and you quit out at that door opening as well so I think it's because it saves time by quitting out than just waiting for the door to open. Also the Blighttown fall to the swamp was insannnne
Yes the quitouts at the doors save time, since runs are measured with ingame time, which is paused during loading screens. If the halberd doesnt drop I have to restart the run.
Incredible run, congratulations! When I killed nito there were two larger skeletons as well that always gave me a hard time. Where were they in your run?
Seeing the path around the edge of the lava was cool, had no idea ceaseless discharge was able to be skipped like that. I always get 1 shot trying to run past him back to the fog wall after picking up the robes to get him to jump over. Guessing the arrow that was shot was to lure the capra demon off the start of the path? Also super confused about the Seath fight, I thought normally you spawn in with the crystal behind him, not behind your character. And no clams made their way into the arena. And Seath was stunlocked or something? I know he has an animation for breaking the crystal to allow some hits in but it looked like it took longer than that and he didn't try to attack at all. Guessing it has something to do with being in midair from the jump as the cutscene triggers?
Yea the arrow was to make capra fall off, he can get really annoying otherwise The first seath fight is different, since in the cutscene you approach the crystal and then he flies in from behind. In later attempts he is already waiting for you so the crystal is behind him. He couldn't do anything because after the stagger he always does the same attack, which is slow enough to allow you to kill him before he can do anything
@scewps Ah that makes sense. I forgot all about the initial seath fight having different placement since I always immediately quit out to stop the clam things from sneaking in. Appreciate the explanation, thanks
May be a noob question (still in the middle of my first run): how do you deal THAT much damage to the first boss and Gargoyles? Every hit is like quarter of the HP bar, whereas I can only achieve 2 or 3% hits with same weapons (talking about first boss in Undead Asylum)
Awesome run, just a few questions though. I noticed in the nitro fight you blocked his gravelord sword plunge attack with no damage while blocking with the crescent axe, is that an actual thing? Because I can never dodge it haha also why did you drop a titanite shard at the start of the 4 kings fight? Was that to plot the middle of the room so you can tell when they’re spawning in next?
Thank you, yes blocking with certain weapons including axes and halberds makes the attack miss. If you look at your characters feet while doing it you can see how wide the stance is, the hitbox goes in between so it doesnt connect. And yea I drop the titanite shard for the exact reason you mentioned, to orient myself in the arena so I know where the 2nd king spawns
Huh thanks for the tips, I’m currently running about 3hrs for my runs but I’ll definitely take a few strats from your run. I love how you move through new londo first and grab the rtsr while lowering the water, I always just ran passed the dragon in drakes valley haha I’ll give it a go but I’ve always been too chicken to use the rtsr strats Anyways hope to see more videos and good luck with the development of your game 😁
@@Mr_PoTaTo_AiM Yeah the new londo strat is nice haha but if youre just starting I wouldnt recommend using RTSR. No RTSR strats are very fast too, its possible to get a 48-49 minute run with those. Good luck with your runs and thank you for the kind words :)
@@Mr_PoTaTo_AiM makes sense, well it doesn't hurt to try it out :) especially for bosses like quelaag and seath it makes a big difference and its not too difficult to learn those
Dying after triggering the dark anor londo cutscene always respawns you at the first anor londo bonfire for some reason, even if you never rested there. That allows you to skip it after iron golem which saves ~15 seconds in total
I actually tried to bait the running attack haha, it just didn't work this time. So I used a backup strat. Normally I run towards the wooden bench and then turn right sharply so he does the running attack, through which you can just backstep and that's perfect RTSR.
yes because you have to do it twice either way, if you light the bonfire you cant use the homeward bone after quelaag which means you need to do the run back up, and thats even slower than going down a second time
@@BellaArtur yeah unfortunately its not like in ds3, so if you only light it it wont set the homeward bone destination but you also wont be able to warp there
Why didn't you lit Daughter of Chaos bonfire after you beat Quelaag ? After you obtain the lord vessel,you could've warp here.(probably there's some reason for that but I just wondered)
How do you do so much damage at such a low level during these runs? Like im casually playing, im on the four kings fight but im level 90 barely doing damage.
Mainly because of the Red Tearstone Ring, it increases your attack by 50% while below 20% health. Also having a fully upgraded Black Knight Halberd is quite strong (especially with strength levelled to the soft cap of 27)
Hi, i hope u can help me, im starting speedrun the game using the redstone ring, and i dont know how to kill seath like the speedrunners, dont cate how fast i enter at the bossfight, seath nevers appear looking at me like in ur ruk and every other pro runners run's, What is the secret?? Tyty
Hi, if Seath is not looking at you at the start of the fight it is either because it's not your first time fighting him or because you did a Save & Quit close to the boss arena. In both cases he will look towards the entrance of the cave because the game thinks you're coming from the foggate. He will only turn towards his crystal the first time you fight him (after triggering the cutscene, when there is no foggate yet) and if you didn't load in to the game too close to the area with the clams. Hope this helps.
gg! why do i see all speedrunners killing themselves after shooting Gwynevere? you have tons of souls to spend and a bonfire right next to you to teleport from, no?
Thanks! If you die after triggering the dark anor londo cutscene you will always respawn at the first anor londo bonfire after. That allows us to skip it before going to o&s (and we need it for seath later) which saves about 15 seconds in total. Losing the souls is fine since we still get all required levels towards the end of the run
Unfortunately no, because then you cant homeward bone back to Undead Parish after Quelaag which means you have to walk all the way back, and thats a lot slower than just going down a second time for bed of chaos
Thanks bro BKH+2 with 27 strength is a beast already, and then I'm also wearing the Red Tearstone Ring which increases attack by 50% when low on health
No it doesn't count as a glitch officially, atleast not a major one. Minor developer unintended things are allowed if they don't break any game mechanic
wait,how tf,not onlly i was impressed by such clean mouvements but i was even more CONFUSED,how come someone with such clean mouvements,new shortcuts,new playthrought (not usual thief+black bombs) only have 200 subs ???
And when I fight Seath, I must fight him with 3-4 other shells, they do not disappear in my DS1. Unless I dispose of them earlier. How come I see all these records, and no shell is following players into the Seath arena ... bs
@@scewps That tool, is it available for PS4 ? I may wanna make a cheese-run (I am not sufficiently functional to do a reasonable speed-run) using the halberd, so having it dropping everytime during training would be nice
The short answer is yes, the male character is usually faster. There is a difference in how the two characters accelerate and decelerate. Male characters accelerate and decelerate slower (slower deceleration meaning the character preserves its speed for longer, which is a good thing), female characters accelerate and decelerate faster. So both have their upsides and downsides. However since most speedrunners use weapon toggling to skip the acceleration animation the male version is technically the better choice. In total it barely makes a difference though, its maybe a few seconds over the course of a run. Complicated answer for a very simple question I know 😂 There's a good video explaining it in detail czcams.com/video/RQKb1DtUUaY/video.html
"hurry up we leave in 45 mins"
Alright lemme finish dark souls real quick
Imagine being an ancient gargoyle then one day a naked blue man runs up and cuts your tail then proceeds to beat you down with it.

Is it really faster to do the blighttown run twice instead of lighting the bonfire for qualaag when you're there the first time and warping to it?

infelizmente não, você pode usar uma ferramenta para praticar, mas não para corridas oficiais
"yeah i played it once."
How do you deal so much dmg at O&S? Impressive run man
Thanks bro
BKH+2 with 27 strength is a beast already, and then I'm also wearing the Red Tearstone Ring which increases attack by 50% when low on health
one question doesn't fall damage canceling with a roll count as a glitch.
No it doesn't count as a glitch officially, atleast not a major one. Minor developer unintended things are allowed if they don't break any game mechanic
Just curious, why does Quelaag just sits there and takes the damage? Awesome run though!!!
Thanks! She is getting staggered because I'm hitting her torso just as she is about to jump away
You are awesome
No you are awesome
GERMANY! GERMANY!
wait,how tf,not onlly i was impressed by such clean mouvements but i was even more CONFUSED,how come someone with such clean mouvements,new shortcuts,new playthrought (not usual thief+black bombs) only have 200 subs ???
Red tearstone ring is fucking op
Can't you get the daughter of chaos bonfire after killing quelagg so you don't have to run back to demon ruins?
You could, but then you would have to run back up after killing quelaag, which is much slower than just going down a second time later
@@scewps Thanks, didn't think of that

How come you didn’t get cursed/die from the first encounter with Seath? I thought that was scripted into the game
And when I fight Seath, I must fight him with 3-4 other shells, they do not disappear in my DS1. Unless I dispose of them earlier. How come I see all these records, and no shell is following players into the Seath arena ... bs
there is a pathing to avoid them, you can see it before triggering the cutscene :)
@@scewps Kudos.
What caused you to not take damage from Nito’s first attack? The toxic one following the scream
Blocking with certain weapon types makes the attack miss, works with axes and halberds for example
@@scewps Thanks, I did know weapons could block 100% damage. Amazing run btw
The dark knight halberd only drops occasionally right ?
Yes in about 23%
Aye, so you just keep restarting a new speedrun until the item drops, then go all the way through@@scewps
@@Mandibil yes exactly. There is a tool you can use to guarantee the drop for practice runs but its not allowed for leaderboard runs
@@scewps That tool, is it available for PS4 ? I may wanna make a cheese-run (I am not sufficiently functional to do a reasonable speed-run) using the halberd, so having it dropping everytime during training would be nice
@@Mandibil No unfortunately its only available for PC :(
Current 25 hours in dark souls lmao i just got to anor londo
Tienes alguno con todos los jefes ?
No es la mejor carrera, pero ahí lo tienes:

Now do a 100% complete speed run >:)
Why is lost izalith door not locked ?
because I gave 30 humanity to the chaos covenant
is skipping seeth scripted death not a glitch?
Квилег с 4 ударов
awesome run but i cannot for the life of me figure out why bother with sif? surely just heading straight to sen's and doing o&s would be faster
he drops the covenant of artorias which is needed for 4kings
@@scewps really exposing where i stopped playing out of frustration with this question
@@BRG_Godsword lol no worries, weve all been there

couldnt have warped to blighttown instead of running?
oh never mind i see why not now
hi just a quick question does it matter whether you play as a man or a woman? thanks
The short answer is yes, the male character is usually faster.
There is a difference in how the two characters accelerate and decelerate. Male characters accelerate and decelerate slower (slower deceleration meaning the character preserves its speed for longer, which is a good thing), female characters accelerate and decelerate faster. So both have their upsides and downsides.
However since most speedrunners use weapon toggling to skip the acceleration animation the male version is technically the better choice.
In total it barely makes a difference though, its maybe a few seconds over the course of a run.
Complicated answer for a very simple question I know 😂
There's a good video explaining it in detail czcams.com/video/RQKb1DtUUaY/video.html
@@scewps wow thats interesting, good to know thank you for your reply!
Why running to Quelagg 2 times? You know you can wrap there, right?
i didnt take the bonfire the first time
@@scewps Exactly! Why not?
@@surfingfrog1337 if I do I cant use the homeward bone back to andre
What he did on the elevator In dukes is a glitch also
