“Its a greatsword, I’m not gonna use that”
Oh you poor innocent elden ring soul, greatswords are freaking amazing in 3.
They are freaking amazing in Elden Ring too actually
they are quite strong in ER too.
did my whole first playthrough with a greatsword.
I str8 beat so many DS3 bosses without dying even once using a greatsword. Elden Ring I used Curved Swords. I miss the great combos that Greatswords have, being able to lunge & stab, swing and smash gives great flexibility but I cannot deny the power of the CAW CAW!! JUMP ATTACK!
@@hugocanot7963 they are decent in ER but no amazing as all of what the other classes have to offer.
He is on dex build
Watching someone play this game without a tutorial is great. It’s like re-experiencing the game again for the first time.
imagine using a tutorial on your first playthrough of a video game. it takes all the fun out of it
I can feel that xD seeing the attempts on Abyss Watchers reminds me of my own struggles I had in DS3 with it being the first Dark Souls I ever played
yea except this time I live in your walls aha
i remeber being 13 and playing on keyboard and racking up 50 deaths to them having no clue i was making it harder by using keyboard and not going to the cathedral first good times@@Zurui1150
Not for me it’s not… at all.
But that’s cool if it has that effect on you.
Elden Ring is the easiest. Ds3 isn't bad, you just need to calm down and separate enemies instead of mindlessly walking into a crowd of them
Elden ring is by far the hardest souls game if you don’t use a broken build like bleed
Broken builds makes it the easiest
@@ShhImANightmaretbh i've played the entire soulsbourne series top to bottom elden ring really is the easiest, that doesn't mean its easy in general as a game
I mean come on its fromsoftware
Had more trouble with DS3 than Elden Ring & DS1, nothing compares to the nightmare that is DS2 though, traversing that map had me losing my mind.
@@ChiefinPack true
I love him just skipping over the Deacons entirely. The level of respect they deserve. 😂
you can't exactly skip deacons... because you can't enter irythill boreal of valley without the doll
They are a complete load of bullshit. Always keep a greatsword in the back pocket just for them, regardless of class.
@@andrewmarklowitz2728 did you actually watch the video? Lol
@ratboy555 I find the boss pretty good it's a test of Croud Control
Or if you are way more stronger than the Decons then it's just fun to destroy entire crouds of Decons lol
@@ratboy555 lmao quick step dagger easier. farron greatsword 2hL1 spam is fun. Deacons is the easiest boss.
I want to see him fight all the dlc bosses lol
agreed, His too greedy, fighting with the slave knight Gael needs more patience it took me 10 minutes to beat that boss.
@@augustoventosa1949 I don't think Gael is the hardest. His fight is so engaging you don't feel the passage of time. sister friede however, punishes any greed aggressively.
@@wngmv Aggression takes her down well. She becomes more dangerous the more passive you are.
@@Do0mSl4yer95 in the 2nd and 3rd phase definitely. In the 1st absolutely not, only if you are over level 140+ and even so she does insane amounts of damage.
he'd be fucked against kalameet lmao
The only bad thing about this video is that it ends.
W comment
W comment hahaha
Indeed a W comment
You can jump out of the elevator halfway and there's an area to explore with a fire demon mini boss.... I think the area has a lot of stuff for upgrades... Definitely worth doing
Don't forget onion bro came down there is second elevator going up 1:40
I died a couple times trying to make that jump 😭😭
@@leroyrowe638git gud
@@leroyrowe638Are you acoustic and restarted?
@@leroyrowe638You have to rotate the camera first time to see where exactly you need to jump and then face your character that way while coming down
At the blacksmith you can reallocate your estus and get ride of the blue charges which are for magic, it'll give you more health charges
Don't ever stop making these videos, they are so entertaining. Your commentary is hilarious! 😂
Kicking is when you press foward and attack at the same time, after you let go of the controll stick for a sec. it is usefull to break the stance of blocking enemys with shields and such.
You kick when you press to move forward and attack at the same time. It takes some getting used to moving first or attacking stationary. The kick is for when an enemy holds up a shield, it throws them into an animation that can get you a crit. If they look big or heavy, it probably wont work though
Ty
You’re telling me I can’t kick away the dragon slayer armor’s shield?
@itmejac6945 if u are holding a torch your kicks are actually strong so you can
@@ericwengkh lmfao wait really that’s hilarious
Don't know why they took the forward stick combos out of ER? Would of added even more variety to combat.
Hey flo, you have missed some upgrade materials for your estus. Youve also missed some other important things back at the undead settlement. But just take your time and enjoy this game man. Its amazing
You can backstab this boss so easy. dont give up on this masterpeace of a game! Love your videos.
I started playing this game recently and spent almost 3 hours straight playing the Abyss Watchers until I killed them. Keep trying and thank you for making these videos!
The weapons and drip you get afterward though🎉
I got stuck on the dancer for days, then changed to a heavy great shield that staggered his attacks, it's a game that needs the right equipment at the right place sometimes
Get ready for Pontiff
@@briansmith4342 pontiff is easy, there's 2 NPC for help
What build, level and equipment did you have? I did them second try, dragging it out because the boss and music was so cool. 😅
Stop attacking until you run out of stamina, you need to leave enough to be able to dodge away. Stop pressing forward while attacking, that's why you keep kicking the air for no reason. Look for some undead bone shards to upgrade how much health is regained with each estus flask. There is 1 in Undead Settlement, 1 in Farron Keep, 1 in Cathedral of the Deep, burn them at Firelink Shrine bonfire. If you want the game to be easier then get rid of the Uchi and use a 100% physical shield and a straight sword or spear. If you think boss runbacks in this game are bad then don't bother playing Dark Souls 2.
BTW go back to the beginning of the undead settlement when you reach the gate that two dogs come out of go the opposite way until you go through the Archway then talk to one of the corpses once they disappear go back to firelink and look around for them and talk to them the service he offers is related to an Ending and also to get more of it do you have to die multiple times
A couple more tips that you would miss go back to the elevator walk on the pressure plate to send it down the moment you step on it jump off and wait for the second one and go all the way up talk to the NPC on top of the tower then if you go back to the location where you would get hit by arrows you no longer get targeted pick up every item you see as one of them does power up your flask
Go back to the Castle and that room where the dogs and exploding barrels were and pick up the item on the Anvil it increases how many flasks you have unlike elden ring go back to firelink I'm guessing you've talked to the Buff man in firelink he can increase how many you have to power it up you have to go to a bonfire and click burn Undead shards or bones
Also after you talk to the NPC at the top of the tower when you ride the elevator down look for a ledge to drop on and just do everything from there
lol
I play with my palm wrist and chest because I'm paralyzed and ds3 is my favorite, ds1 and 2 are harder. If you want to add me I'll play through it with you
The influence Zanny has had on yt creators and their thumbnails has not gone unnoticed lmao
Bro I straight up thought it was a Zanny vid but it's just some elden ring newcomer ripping off his style.
@@valravnsshadow9422 same, literally looks just like a zanny vid lol, even the title
You’ve got the perfect personality for this. I can almost never watch another person game but you make this incredibly entertaining. I hate Twitch but you’ve got my sub.
the trick for phase 2 was baiting him into doing the 3 part combo of slash, slash, then when he leaps and stabs at the ground, which also works in elden ring against black knives and bloodhound knights
So refreshing 🤩 it brings happiness to my heart to see others in pain in DS :D
That's DS in the purest form: struggling, constantly on the verge of giving up, but then euphoric and rewarded for persistence and getting good.
DS3 and DS1 are the best imo
only because ds2 was so dang forced, miyazaki originally didnt want to make a dark souls 2
This is hilarious to me. DS3 was my first Souls/FS game. Curious to see how the rest of the game goes. Nameless King will be great to watch.
Same. It's been a while since I've gotten to see someone on the left side of "git gud."
I think we all remember when we, too, called foul and yelled at the game for being "janky" or "unfair" when it was just a matter of learning the games rules.
Odds are he wont find the nameless king
@@LG-gd7lo lol If he's playing without a guide, which seems reasonable to assume, I would say you are right.
@@LG-gd7lo I can almost hear the commentary talking about what bullshit it is that getting there is so hidden, and then the constant discussion of how hard the base enemies are and the dragon lol
@@LG-gd7loand what about midir lol
You fumble the ball so much in this video it's hilarious 😂
gonna just say something you can be thankfull for, in the Firelink shrine, there are stairs on ther right of the entrance where you find a tower, from the entrance perspective, is there a tree where you can glitch jump into the cealing, there you can find another estus shard, good luck, and the boss fights will only become better (most of them) after Abyss Watchers
You need Bone Shards to upgrade the healing each flask use does. Other than that, hope ya like this game! Out of all the games you've tried this one was the hardest for me. (Excluding Lies of P, because I haven't played that yet.)
Edit: oh also! The kick happens when you press forward and attack at the same time. So just make sure you're not pressing both when you're fighting.
Wait how am I suppose to not hit both at the same time? Isn’t that how you fight?
@@aaronjohnson9529 when you're fighting you should either be holding forward and then press attack, or press attack while not moving. Moving forward and attacking at the exact same time will cause the kick.
I kinda wish there was an option to turn it off or something, because some people go through the game entirely without using it.
Everyone said lies of p was mega hard. Tbh I found it easier than any souls game. However 1 or 2 bosses nearly made me rage quit the game. It has one flaw though and that's the throwables being op against bosses
Theres a estus upgrade ring somewhere in firelink shrine ;)
Theres also no shame if you just want to look up locations for estus upgrade materials. you'll need them
first video i watch in your channel but it really good tho, keep up the good work bro!
Literally how I be talkin dagum this was great/hilarious man keep being you! 🔥🔥🔥
You can also use the grass crest shield as it has built in stamina recovery i also figured out the one handed attacks are faster but do less damage then two handed which do more damage but are slower
7:50 love how you ignore all of crucifixion woods and skip the sage and instead go straight for the abyss watchers. if you thought you were underleveled before, wait until after that fight
so nice to see a blind run so much later! so many good memories thank you.
The Abyss watchers are pretty straight forward if you bait out the back stab!!
I thought dark souls was easy, and then I played Elden ring.
I love the Abyss Watchers fight, it’s so cool. But yeah you definitely need to explore every area, you missed a big fight at the top of the elevator in the previous area.
You can do this! I struggled on the abyss watchers myself and I'm now on journey 3.
You beat ‘Lies of P’, you’ve got this keep going. Only thing I’d say is that it looks like you’re doing a challenge run, by not using everything the game gives you.
Anyway great video, you’ll soon get to 100k. 👍
It’s not a choice though. The challenge presented itself 😂
Have you considered maybe trying the exile greatsword? It’s not as fast, sure, but you seem to like tanking damage so a greatsword would give you some hyper armor for your attacks. It also has a cool WA and sometimes all you need is a vibe change. Love your content.
Don’t go Hollow, you can do this! ❤
Good lord that brings back memories, that sword was pure pvp nightmare with upwards of 1300+ dmg on a R1+WA. PvE melts just as fast it's such a crazy STR weapon.
Watching you play reminds me of the first times I played this game. Such painful memories lmao
This literally made me laugh out loud. Thank you for that Ashen One ❤❤
You're kicking because you press forward and R1 at the same time. Kick is actually pretty useful against shielded enemies because it depletes way more of their poise than a normal hit would. Most of the time you can easily get in a critical hit after a kick on a shield.
After putting in hundreds of hours into DS1, DS2 & Bloodborne. I found DS3 pretty easy, except for bosses like Nameless King and Dankeater Midir. I always had to summon players to help me with those guys. I haven't played Elden Ring yet though.
Your run of abyss watchers was so relatable, took me quite a while to beat them
"Give me a boss, please!!!" One second later: "take back outside..." 😅😂
Shame that you’ll miss out on some great DS3 moments by not playing DS1 first but I’m still hyped as hell to see how badly this goes
It works both ways IMO. I also played 3 before one but DS3 has so many references to Dark Souls 1 that I still often went like "Ahh I remember this" or "Ahh so that's how it was like at first".
@@valentinvas6454 I don’t know, man, the surprise and context are just gone at that point. You’d just go “oooh, so that’s what that was all about”, instead of the “holy shit, this is the greatest thing in the world” like you would if you played DS1 first
Brother. Your flasks are +1 im almost certain you can upgrade them more by this stage
Yeah, you can have it at +3 by this stage.
I just love how bro was saying Abyss Watchers was gonna be easy then exits the game
So here for this journey. Keep strong brother
Personally Elden ring gave me more trouble than dark souls 3
Yes me too
Yeah I don't know what this dude is talking about. He said that he heard that lies of P was harder then d3? Lies of P is probably the easiest game in that genre...
Another crabs treasure is harder
Honestly I gotta say without CZcams or google, elden is way harder hands down, but I think most of the boss fights are around the same difficulty, I personally just favor dark souls because of its tight spaces and layered aesthetic. Could just be my nostalgia though cause it was my first souls game
This has to be 🧢
You can use bone shards to upgrade the flasks the estus shards to increase the amount of flasks other than that find and equip rings for buffs , you can also get boss weapons which requires an item to give to the guy on throne with no legs and trade in boss souls for it. If you find souls which are not boss souls use them for either upgrading your weapon or buying things or level up. Dark spirits only spawn in if you have an ember equiped which gets restored after killing the bosses or buying and using. It can also show summon signs aid you in bosses
This was great. The "weave" sent me each time lol
I relate to the random air kicks so bad! It happens when you push the joystick down and flick up so it always accidentally happens
killing the tree is a great idea for the kiln. i honestly love the greatswords you can get from boss souls
Another crazy thing about this game is the 2 huge secret areas. You get to one by knocking down a bridge and then climbing down it (so unbelievably easy to miss) and then to get to the other, you have to use a specific emote and wait a certain amount of time. It’s crazy
Ayyyy I thought I remembered your voice. I watched you finish Lies of P which I was also having a blast with at the time... and now here you are playing my favorite game of all time!
in the battle sounds like Abba dancing queen song in back lol
Seeing the Ashen Estus flask taking up a charge in the background. Oh the pain ;)
i finally beat ds3 earlier this morning and what Ive learned is that honestly...... it only was a hard game when I tried to be too ballsy and was overconfident. I did a dex build/sellswords and (was my first time playing) I leveled up and honestly thought I was untouchable , until I met the right enemy. I died so many times to Champion Gundyr/the nameless king/ The twin princes/ and Lord of cinder. But, I only died to them because I didnt take my time and study their attacks. What an excellent game it was, on to elden ring now!
You had me astma laughing at "his sword just lit up".
mink! you can finish them game dawg, believe in the heart of the cards! new sub
your videos are so good bro keep it up
This brought back some good memories lol.
The difficulty is what makes the game so rewarding. idk how many times I stood up and cheered after killing a boss who's been beating me for hours.
I remember jumping with Joy after killing the Nameless King
YOOO big W with the hotel Krat music in the background 🔥🔥🔥
I don't know why but I'm addicted to this channel so much lol.
I remember putting down DS3 for a long time when I was at the Abyss Watchers Boss Fight too!!
😂😂 it really is a rite of passage for the entire game.
In case you haven't figured it out just yet, the kick happens when you press R1 and forward on the directional stick at the same time. I think it can be remapped in the settings, but it's been a while, i can't remember..
I love how you said he doesn’t get staggered, then immediately realized afterwards that he does get staggered like four separate times 😂
I can definitely see the Bloodborne levels of aggression in your play style. Also, the kick is when you tap forward and attack at the same time; you probably worked that out already though.
also, the kick imput is walk forwards and light attack, what it does is basically breaks the guard of enemies with shields
It's always part of the fun about DS games is seeing how other people do vs the various bosses.
For me personally this boss was a first try. I don't know if I was over leveled or not but I managed to beat him first attempt being extremely patient.
“My friend just hit me” is my favorite part 😂
in Ds3 panic rolling is a death sentence I feel like ER was a little more lenient on that lol. When I saw the Dark knights behind you I cackled bc I knew exactly what was gonna happen 🤣. Bro you're killing me with that kick, I've never seen someone Struggle with that so hard 🤣
ER lets you panic roll for free.
you can take advantage of animation immunity whenever you open a door or a chest. case in point: you can open the door behind that rider without taking damage then light the bonfire first. then cheese him with a bow or any throwable item.
Your first attempt at abyss watchers I thought wow this dude is gaming, then it turned into the dark souls experience the rest of us had :D
enters abyss watchers fight: "don't tell me i gotta fight two" famous last word xD
As well as me subscribing, looking forward for the next vids
You're hilarious, following from now
Dark souls 3 was my first souls game I ever played... It was a nightmare trying to play through it but also one of the best games I've experienced once all was said and done
Dark pyromancer build is pretty dope, I literally had a win streak of 12 in 1v1's. Rocked the onyx blade to complement the build.
W content bro just found your channel
im crying watching this, cuz i know tis gonna be me tomorrow that i just finished elden ring
this game takes me back ah the memories
I give you props for going into the bosses with no summons
Nice job taking that step back to explore. Abyss watchers is a hard boss.
Abyss Watchers fight had me SHOOK back in the day. That sh*t as a casual (albeit a persistent casual that watches CZcams tips) was ROUGH
"OH he's still going" yeaaa memories😩😂
Can’t even lie, watching him get absolutely humbled by the abyss watchers was extremely cathartic
"haeelp"
lmao. i feel you bro
Wow. It was like listening to a replay of myself fight the Abyss Walkers XD Somehow hilarious and redemptive.
“Why am i kicking him?! I dont get it!” THANK YOU!
When you hit forward+light attack at the same time you will kick
if you want to stop kicking, stop moving when hitting the enemy
hope you enjoy the rest of the game
“ am I not suppose to be here “ 😂
If you push the left stick forward and light attack at the same time you will start a kick. Start moving first, then attack. Also the rule of thumb for bosses is dodge/block, attack 1-2 time's, and dodge/block (repeat till boss dies). If you do more than two attacks you will have a 50% or higher chance of dark souls punishing you for greed. (depends on boss attack frequency)
Bonus note: You should have 10 flasks at +3 by now. A little more exploration will do you good.
(Past this note are the Shard/Bone area's before the Abyss Watchers, but not specifically where in them.)
1.High Wall of Lothric (shard)
2.Undead Settlement (Shard+Bone)
3.Road of Sacrifices (Shard)
4.Farron Keep (Shard+Bone)
5.Cathedral of the Deep (Shard+Bone)
6.Firelink Shrine (Shard)
Backstabs works wonders on this game. Also get bone shards to increase your healing. I look forward to watching you beat this💯
does this man even praise the sun?
i recently watched this after a 100% elden ring, i'm going back through 1-2&3. great videos and godspeed
Relatable 😂 Keep going, and don't get discouraged.
Abyss Watchers are fun. If you stop there, you'll be missing out on bosses who are wayyy more fun to play with 😊
I love the abyss watchers,such cool lore.
i just now, after 2 years of beating this game realize that the crystal sage with the purple energy is the real one and the clones have blue energy xD
I also had a massively difficult time with DS3. The speed, ferocity, movesets and HOLY F***ING DAMAGE of the games enemies and bosses just break my brain for some reason. Didn't have a ton of trouble with Elden Ring, but there are so many more tools to work with in ER.
"This Boss is EAAASY dude." quote Floverse... xD
