The armor thing makes sense to me. If you unequip your armor and die you respawn with all your armor off. If Seigward dies down that well he respawns without it in the same way

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

I guess that makes sense, and since it was stolen its not like it would be in his inventory (if he were following player rules haha)

[@grfrjiglstan]

Elfriede was Friede’s name before she put Londor behind her - she’s actually Yuria’s sister, and she was working with her on the whole ‘make Londor great again’ thing before she found the painting and adopted it as a protector. There’s some language trickery about how Friede means peaceful in Celtic and Elfriede means something else - it’s been like five years since I watched Vaati’s vidya on it.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

Holy smokes! Thanks for the lore, as much as I love these games I know..very little about their world, but that's pretty cool! haha

[@TySama0]

Nice joke at the end, lol

[@Soapy-chan]

I'm looking up the names and while it is the case that Friede means peace in german, Friede as a name is really Frieda and comes from Elfrieda which means Elf + power or nature spirit. I guess that the makers of the game used the double meanings the name could have, but technically Vaati would be wrong, emotologically speaking.

[@nothingness217]

Friede was actually the first candidate for the Lord of Hollows, that's why she has black flame on phase 3 (they probably gave her some darkness so she'd be able to take the flames), but only the Ashen can do that, so she just ended up burning. After the second bell, she rose, but decided to go to the painting instead, back to her old home (Yuria says they were from the painting).

[@SaganTheKhajiit]

Friede means "peaceful" in German, and Elfriede means "Elf-strength" in medieval German.

[@grfrjiglstan]

Yeah, Gravetender swaps to sorceries once the big wolf shows up, taking on a more passive role in the fight like how the gargoyles start breathing fire at low health. Another little-known fact about the big wolf: if you fight it on its own outside the fog, on the path to the Millwood Knights’ tower, depleting its health in those two encounters will lower its health in the boss fight proper, around 15%.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

really? I didn't know it was the same wolf, might have to try that sometime haha

[@alexread6767]

You've completely stunned me with this information Mainly because I usually refuse to fight the wolves since they're too cute

[@somedude4832]

While sometimes helpful, I find it’s usually a pain to fight the wolf outside the boss encounter because of all the other wolves. It does drop a few large titanite shards though, plus the damage you mentioned.

[@BirnieMac1]

@@somedude4832If you sprint till you hear the big one howl and save and quit the other smaller ones will have reset position and aggro so you can fight it 1 on 1 and not have to clear them out each time you want to attempt it (idk why but I die to him there occasionally but never have any issue with him in the actual fight)

[@somedude4832]

@@BirnieMac1 That does happen for the first fight, but some of the wolves can start attacking you again and the terrain is generally awkward and uneven. I dont think it's possible to avoid the wolves in the second fight, but you can go inside the tower (assuming it's cleared) and fight the dogs separate from the big one

The fact that the Saint-tree Bellvine gives max casting speed when held is invaluable for runs/characters like this. Of course the game does actively nothing to let the player know it exists but it is an effective 99 dex worth of casting speed. Good for weapon/spell combos like with Heysel Pick or Demon's Scar.

As a tip to anyone who wants to do a sorcery/miracle/pyro only run, get the Saint Tree Belvine in Cathedral of the Deep, as it provides the maximum amount of virtual dexterity when held in either hand.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

[@agrithdragonflame3775]

Fun fact: The Witchtree Branch is a staff that has the exact same effect (even down to it being one of the worst scaling catalysts of its kind). However, it is heavier and found in Irythyll, making the Saint-Tree Bellvine the earlier and better option.

[@sanddagger36]

8:52 so the unkindled undead as well as the cursed undead from the previous games all respawn at the bonfire when they die because they are time locked. Have you noticed how all broken furniture goes back to normal after a respawn as well as the bosses? They act like its the first time you've entered their fog wall. The reason is because it is the first time as far as they know. The only thing that does not reset upon your death is your humanity/ember/curse/level and NPC aggro. This is because other unkindled are traveling through the world at the same pace as you and can interact with you. You respawn with your armor because no NPC came and stole it while you were dead like what happened to siegward. Patches claims he will strip your corpse after you die but he either forgets to, or knows better than to actually do it. The fact that the world is locked in time is further shown when you reach Alderich's boss fight and can help Henry defeat him only for him to still be there when you arrive. Only things that happen in your timeline actually happen (for you) other NPC's have their own timelines but can visit yours. But once you go hollow you can get stuck out of your timeline and in someone else's.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

Neat, this is actually how I used to think of Sekiro, like you can get up once but if you die again then it's just..over, and the whole world resets to before that death happened, and no one but the player knows it haha

[@infinitepotato001]

Damn now that Wolf is full-time Imma be drowning in content. Very happy potato.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

haha I'm glad you enjoy the videos my friend :)

[@Bediverebadger]

Something you could try for the demon princes is to have a simple infused shield or something in your off-hand for *very* slow, but infinite fp regeneration, and potentially another one you can switch the pyro flame to for double regen speed while you're waiting for the demons to seperate. You could also add a chime to cast Gentle Prayer for very cheep (and painfully slow) healing to offset any chip-damage you take. Regardless, this strategy sounds like it would be absolutely horrible, so give it a try if you're feeling masochistic.

[@dotgone]

It really hurt to see all that effort put into showing how it's mathematically impossible to do it, when it's dark souls 3 and you have infinite mana from simple weapons. Waiting for simple weapons to regenerate is miserable and I don't think anyone needs to justify why they don't want to do an hour long boss fight for a challenge run. But man, it hurt to realize he had no idea simple weapons exist.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

haha like dotgone said, i kinda forgot simple infusions exist, I don't think i've _ever_ used one, but you're both right, technically if I wanted to that would negate the mana problem, if i ever do that mini challenge, i'll keep it in mind!

[@dotgone]

@@DoomWolfOfficial it's 40 mana per minute for two +10 simples, if fextralife's math was ever correct. Which.... Yeah, dodging phase 2 for that long makes me think of when Skum did bare fists in ER. Every ashen estus charge saves several minutes, but dying from running out of regular estus would be soul crushing too. I'd say if you decide to do it, give yourself all the hidden blessings/siegbrau/divine blessings available in a perfect quest completion playthrough and save state them for each attempt. Would massively decrease the barrier to entry. Thanks for all the videos

[@AaronCorr]

12:14 when I played DS3 for the first time it was my first soulsborne game and I already heard that "yOu hAvE tO bEaT BoSses sOlo" so I beat the entire game without summons EXCEPT pontiff. For him I needed Anri and another white phantom. This stuck with me so much that I needed to start a second run right after beating the game, just so I could solo him.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

when i first started playing souls games I also heard the "gotta play without summons" talk. I do it now because of the challenge runs, but honestly, as long as you're having fun ya know?

[@Sir-Pleiades]

I do all the bosses solo because I never remember how to do the NPC questline. Except Pontiff I always summon because I don't know how to parry lol

[@Soapy-chan]

This no summon thing is so stupid... Also I beat every dark souls game first with playing coop with a friend. After I had beat each individual one I played them alone again and have since did many runs in each of them. It helps to get to know how the game works if you're someone like me, I'm easily frustrated and so having someone help me along the way made me appreciate the games so much more. also, as long as you having fun (and don't disturb others), who cares how you play

[@Aryae_Sakura]

15:40 Fun Fact: All Bosses as far as i know in Darksouls 3 Attack in four-quarter-time in Rhythm with their music... Except the Dancer of the Boreal Valley. She attacks in three-quarter-time. Since she is a Boss you fight rather late in the game most players grew accustomed to the Pattern of all the other Bosses. Thats why her Pattern throws you off just a bit and she seems more aggressive. I dont know if this holds true for the DLC Bosses but it should hold true for the main game ^^.

Another run idea for you Doom, to match your Whip run: Elden Ring with a Boner, you can only use Bone items. You can use Bone Arrows from the Horn bow too, because that is kind of bone too. Bone darts, Poisonbone darts, Bone Arrows... If you can think of a reasonable Crossbow, Bone Bolts.... If it says BONE in the name (Or you could argue that it IS bone), it's fair game. And I've no doubt you have plenty of terrible bone jokes to make, especially since it's Spooky Month.

You could hold any weapon or shield infused with "Simple" in your offhand which would give you a very small but constant stream of FP regeneration, the same way "Blessed" gives HP regeneration.

Just as a thought experiment, since you're already in faith as a build, I wonder if you could have set up for a support healer role and let a summon (Gael, I think?) deal with the Demon Princes while you support them and throw out Flame Fans when practical. I'm not very knowledgeable about DS3 so I'm not sure if that's a possible thing you can do in the game but it might be an interesting way to at least see the bosses behind them and see what those fights are like?

Well well, nice clean up. Frankly, smart choice not pursuing DLC2, Midir is a marathon, the gank squad of Halflight, the combo maniac of Gael, would have been maddening. Frankly impressed it was even worthy of beating Gwyn. Here's to a happy spooky month!

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

Yeah I try to stay under/slightly behind his ankle, it helps haha Oh really? I didn't realize it was a proper stance break haha, guess I was just lucky! Thanks for the tip! It will be a life saver in future runs (I usually die _at least_ once to that group of stone dragons) I unfortunately forgot simple infusions exist lol, but if I ever do that mini challenge I would keep it in mind!

[@h4py741]

i really like your humor!

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

I'm glad :)

[@ToHellWithReality]

I forget if it's been mentioned in a previous video, but I'm assuming a Simple offhand goes against the spirit of cast counting.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

it would have been fine with me, the problem is..i forgot they existed lmao

[@ToHellWithReality]

@@DoomWolfOfficial Aaaaah rip. I did a lot of caster only in DS3, so infinite mana regen was my friend.

[@hashtags_YT]

Clicked for the thumbnail, stated for Wolf 👑

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

haha thanks :)

[@NoopyMaple-nz2je]

This run was pretty good! You could say it blew me away ahaaha

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

haha that is the power of the fan! Thank you :)

[@deakbenedek492]

Well, this video was fan-tastic.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

I see what you did there! Thanks :)

[@elitereptilian200]

"ball shaped ranged fan" sounds legit, no issues here lol

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

tbf, anything is a fan if it moves fast enough :P

[@hxhiscool8]

Congratulations on going full-time on KZbin boss man !

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

[@Jeujzusmsjem]

Congrats on 100k!

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

Thank you my friend :)

[@Jeujzusmsjem]

​@@DoomWolfOfficiali just realized you reply to practically every comment. That's dedication.

[@alfreddrewes9362]

Doom, I have no idea if it's possible, but doing a Dark souls 3 run, but it's only the hitboxes.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

could you elaborate? hha

[@ColdEmperor]

Gratz on 100k.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

Thank you!

[@ShikiRen]

0:46 : We now need a "Can I beat Elden Ring in Seamless Coop with Press Continue" video! ;) 10:10 Suddenly Hollow Bastion

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

I mean, i'm down if he is haha, and what can I say, KH is great!

[@fkfrvdkdkdkjdkdldlfld]

you could have use simple infusion weapon on off hand to get passive fp

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

I would have! ..if I remembered they existed lmao

[@TREVORVADER]

Desert Pyromancer/Sorceress is 10/10. Thanks DS2. Also that Orbeck slander is just wrong man. He’s such a chill character. One of my favorite in DS3.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

it was a great ds2 addition lol isn't orbeck an assassin or something? am I misremembering that lore?

[@kikolektrique1737]

Awesome video nice armor

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

Thanks, and agreed lol

[@zweihanderpancakes1855]

26:36 - You got hit because you waited too long. Rolling out of prone is only possible while you still have knockdown invincibility. The fact that you took damage means it was too late to input a roll. For future reference, In Ds3 PVE, it is almost 100% safe to simply buffer a backwards roll as soon as you get knocked down. The only exception I know of to this rule is Midir's scream in phase 2, where rolling backwards gets you hit by the chasing humanity sprites. There, you roll forwards and the first few will miss around you, giving you time to react to the rest.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

I've..never heard of that despite playing this games now for a living lol, I mean I have always waited to roll to time it with the enemy attacks ya know? Not saying you aren't on to something but this is the first, after 1000s of hours that i'm hearing of it haha Oh well, always able to learn something new I suppose :)

[@BirnieMac1]

I love that it crashed so hard your monitor refused be involved without a restart

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

I didn't but it was funny tho lol

[@videosthatwhatever]

Simple Gem dagger on the off hand to gain FP slowly

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

True! I just forgot they existed lol

[@nintai6656]

More doom wolf, more smiles.

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

Hope you enjoyed the video my friend :)

[@shadowfang1034]

Yeah the patches quest is weird either in the firelink tower or in cathedral of the deep just go to both and youre guaranteed to get him

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

Thats basically what I ended up doing every time, and it seems like no matter which I do first he doesn't show up for it lol

[@otamatonefan8996]

Demon twins and Prince with the addition of a Simple Gem for MP regen. *years later. "...Are we there yet..?"*

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

lol yeah, unfortunately I forgot that simple infusions exist, otherwise I might have tried more with them

[@noxineamv2158]

I forgot this set was in the game! Gotta revisit it and do a pyromancy only run ❤

[@DoomWolfOfficial]

do it! I love pyromancies in these games..maybe not this specific one but still haha
