    I'm not really the type to make celebration videos, so I just wanted to leave a comment here acknowledging the insanity of this channel reaching 1 million subscribers since the last video. As an anxious person who feels pretty undeserving of even a fraction of that, I don't really know what to say. I really appreciate everyone who's watched my videos and subscribed over the years, and I hope I can keep making things that are entertaining or worth your time.

      are you saying "yes mobility makes sense but the other aspects of summoning Alexander (such as how he doesn't increase the boss' health) are really good so summoning Alexander is a good option even at the cost of losing Torrent's mobility"?

    One of my absolute favorite experiences in my gaming career (for lack of a better term) was basically doing this in a run of Fallout New Vegas, but with having a companion that could attack for me in place of spirit summons. I grabbed Cass as early as I could and just hauled her around with me everywhere, since she was a pretty high damage companion with her shotgun. It was crazy, and I had to get pretty creative with how I could handle situations where talking couldn't get you through the situation.

      You don't have to worry about using a specific setup.
      Just use the Belfry Farum entrance and then fast travel back to Roundtable Hold then Alt+F4 (quit to dashboard on console) during loading screen.
      Restart game. Done.

    I've been watching a lot of challenges like this recently, and i am simply amazed how inventive player can be. Trully amazing. Just one comment or tip, for the Fire giant, i don't now if it was possible on the patch that you recorded, but there's a glitch where you can use Latenna even at level 1. Although i recommend leveling her a few times because in that situation, it will take aprox. half hour. Don't ask me how i know... Lol
    Again, great video.

    The Bewitching Branch only does dmg if youre too close and actually hit the enemy with it , but for the branch to work you dont actually need to hit the target , the target only needs to be in the cloud that spawns from the branch. So pretty similar to that Pot you have been avoiding. Also Sleep Pots work the same , maybe everything that casts a cloud works this way.

    7:00 - Note: You can shoot near the bird twice, once will stop it's movement as it has been alerted, the second shot will "reveal" you as an enemy to it and it will still yeet itself off the edge. Missing it intentionally twice (but coming close) is arguably harder than hitting it once, however.

      It would still be an „attack“ and thus not fit for a true pacifist
      …not like summoning a ghost-dog that gives your enemies mega-cancer is very pacifist either but who am I to judge
