Dark Souls II: How Many Bosses Can You Cheese?

[@ArcasCorricol]

the old iron king left his oven on and had to go home

[@TheRPGInsomniac]

I'm currently working on a "Depopulating Drangleic" run of DS2, and this video pops up in my feed! Happy to see other people still enjoying DS2! Great video, you got a new subscriber :)

[@greatconfabulator]

I am too, it turns out some sections cannot be emptied...like the statue room in the castle.

[@themadsuika3909]

​@@greatconfabulatorI mean that's good since you kinda can just softlock yourself if they didn't respawn I know that exists CoC pact but i bet almost no one would know if they do that

[@Arler1111]

Bro is doing a genocide run

[@julius.caesar.]

@@greatconfabulator if you close your eyes when you walk through then you won't know if they're there or not!

[@swoch185]

Yoooo! Happy to contribute to some DS2 content! The pursuer dupe was collaborative effort after I discovered you could spawn a fake Dragonrider in Heides. Then, me Elo and Doom338 figured we could duplicate pursuer too. And current patch partywalk was found by me :) There is an alternative way of doing Attunement glitch on console. It's done by sitting at the bonfire in Iron keep thereby dying and you are able to navigate the menu and attune there

[@SenpapiTT]

You said that one of the possible requirements to be considered true cheese is for the boss to be harmless to you, and under those rules, the cheese for the Royal Rat Authority is true cheese. After all, the only threat in that fight are the small rats

[@themightythor1160]

Rats do love cheese

[@Izolus]

Babe wake up a new entry in the true cheese series just dropped

[@vvbr2372]

That goofy animation for the Iron king made my day

[@farrex0]

Right, he looks so awkward, like.... "uhh... I thought you wanted to fight. So uhmmm, I... I am not much of an small talker, if you do not want to fight I will just... leave. If that is ok with you. Not that I think youa rea bad talker, I just, uhmmm, I only know how to fight ok? Really, I don't know why i can't stop talking... this has never happened to me before.... I am trying to leave... just that the lava is quite deep, and it is hard to move on lava. Have you ever moved on lava? I suppose not.... well, anyway, could you please just stop staring... please. If I could leave any faster I would"

[@anneelk9066]

Super interesting to see how different ai breaks work here than in Bloodborne and DS3. Great vid!

[@alexanderglasell9437]

Man I havent smiled much all week, but you changed that in the last minute by uploading this vid. Absolutely love your videos dude! Keep it up!

[@100nodog]

25:00 actually, you don't need a Great Bow, you can use Heavy Arrows or Heavy Bolts, both of which can destroy environmental items.

[@demisync]

OH, it's the poopwalk guy, fucking legend. I love Dark Souls 2 content, fantastic vid

[@harvey1032]

I love this video. It takes me back to the Lobos challange run days where challenge run videos were more long form and informative than the cheap, click bait they are now.

[@grip7777]

onlookers look on in horror as this man breaks dark souls 2s kneecaps, fantastic

[@p19070]

A whole hour of cheese? We eating good today

[@VileLasagna]

The tiniest of tweaks but since there was a decent amount of sniping left, Bow of Want might've been a nice upgrade, given you were already on lightning arrows anyway

[@Fabler21]

I didn't even know that was a thing, but apparently, you're my "top gaming creator" on my youtube gaming wrapped

[@bigsammichthoughts]

24:53 I don't think you do need a greatbow for this. If my memory is correct, a normal bow with iron arrows works, as do most spells with a hitbox.

[@kaschey6145]

I'm loving all the creative way to turn the game's peculiar mechanics against it. Great narrative: clear and well-paced ❤ Also, holy s-, the Iron King cheese had me in tears. He looked so embarrassed 😂😂😂

[@Thejigholeman]

* runs behind pillar, still in view of the boss * Sir Alonne: wh- ho- how.... HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!

[@LimeCultivist]

21:47 I’ve never seen that falling death for the chariot. I’ve always just pulled the lever to make it crash into the gate

[@jimmyjohnspissapalace2694]

Tbh the classic roll and plunge to beat the dragon rider is and always will be the best

[@oliverbican5617]

I really like your videos, you're my favourite dark souls content creator!

[@chelseareads698]

30:41 you can use a trap of lingering flames to one shot him when he jumps down!

[@nathantillman7499]

Absolutely love your DS videos. Please keep up the awesome work!

[@younesakdah1803]

Clear bluestone ring+1 next to the cloranthy ring +1 no need to buy the inferior version you absolute NOOOOB. Kidding, Great video. I'm gonna have to try that parry walk, just about the only thing I haven't done yet.

[@Nick.t.S]

29:39 ironic you couldn’t find cheese for the rat wouldn’t you agree?

[@GotOutFoxed]

Super happy you made another one of these! Can’t for potential episodes on DS3 and Elden Ring :3

[@erin1569]

56:06 aka the Vaush Valley

[@HiroHideki]

I love this game and that spell exploit was so cool to learn about that I subscribed!

[@Foggert772]

There is a rare bug with ivory in both versions where sometimes after he backflips his ai breaks and just stands there

[@torqueblue]

This isn't just any kinda of cheese, this is Premium Nacho Cheese. Well done!

[@TobiTheHuman]

The Rat King of all bosses has no cheese. Very ironic.

[@SkeIIum]

I like how most of these cheeses are significantly more difficult than actually doing the bosses in DS2. That you have to do the levels, which are harder than the bosses, to be able to cheese the boss is hilarious.

[@kaschey6145]

It's not about the practicality, it's about sending the message XD

[@UnbreakableGrass]

As if 300+ DSR glitches isn’t enough, this vid will definitely help for DS2! Great vid

[@mastergame1311]

You are doing God's work. Peak Souls 2 deserves this.

[@goobie23]

i have such a deep appreciation of ds2 and these videos give me life fr

[@sneakypotato7874]

Why does this have less than a few thousand likes? This is literally perfectly formatted! Tells you everything you need, and some thing wayyy in advance. Gives proper information on why something does what it does to glitch in the needed manner, etc.

[@Darkest_Death]

There's also a spell attunement glitch for console but you need the iron keep starting bonfire. You can sit far enough to die whilst in the spell menu and switch out your spell for another (press x as soon as the menu disappears and screen blacks out)

[@dropperello]

Great vid!

[@richardfarrer5616]

With a well built character and fully upgraded twinblade and a brightbug, I've seen speedrunners take down Ehlana while she's still monologuing. Looks pretty cheesy to me.

[@kxiqcpx]

your effort is insane

[@EmissaryOfSmeagol]

I love DS2 content

[@SpecShadow]

16:47 sudden music stop never gets old

[@StarShade0]

For Elana, I know it’s possible to completely skip her and get into the small cave before Sinh. It’s done by parry walking, building up speed, grabbing a certain ladder in the pyramid area, and doing the ladder glitch to slide infinitely down into the cave. Would it be possible dark fog her from the cave end this way? The hit box might just be large enough.

[@splee5556]

She can't be hurt without triggering the fight first unfortunately. It is possible to trigger the fight and get back out of the fog gate; but there's no way to get back up to the ladder used for the skip once you're down there.

[@StarShade0]

@ Ah damn. At least you tried. Great video.

[@charliebob5827]

More like, how many bosses can you dark fog to death 🤣

[@ericaguilar1124]

With the chariot boss you can shoot poison arrows and lighting arrows to finish the boss quickly

[@vervetwrydavigy3006]

the skeleton lords fight reminds me of those videos where the camera has been positioned high up and angled just right to make everything look like toys.

[@benpatso]

Love your content bro, you should upload some bloodborne challenge vids :)

[@scotty-man]

was supposed to sleep to this but its too interesting

[@duce_hosk7730]

HECK YA I WAS WAITIN G FOR THIS ONE! HERES THE CHEESEEE

[@pyromaniak2736]

on the royal rat authority idk what youre talking about you completely disabled the boss fight that giant punching bag is 0 threat master of the cheese and im lactose fervent i appreciate you my dude

[@Zakariyasen]

This video's title should be "How many Dark Souls 2 bosses can you beat with Parry Walk?"

[@jerekaneplaysthings7755]

Small correction on Gank Squad: There's a chance, a small one, that the havel NPC can jump attack and hit you Source: Me farming the boss for Bonfire Aesthetics :P

[@theodorepinnock1517]

You can prevent the Fume Knight from going into his phase 2 by drinking estus, as he'll prioritise trying to punish you over doing the phase transition. If you time this well between doing attacks, you can kill him without him ever going into phase 2.

[@saladninja69]

I feel like the whole setup segment is a "Drangleic Tour Guide - Must do" lol. No matter what build I do, I always try to do those things as soon as possible

[@thinix396]

i saw your ds1 cheese video yesterday and i was so sad that you didn’t have a ds2 one well guess what popped up today

[@OcarinaT1]

24:53 The pot hollow cheese doesn't actually need a greatbow! They can be broken with iron arrows, heavy bolts, Soul Arrows, or even throwing knives!

[@candyashes999]

Moon butterfly skirt is the most op clothing in all of Dark Souls

[@igorribeiro8934]

great video

Heck yeah! Best Souls-tuber plays the best Souls game🎉🎉🎉

[@batista2182]

You are a legend!!1!1

[@toweringcobra6177]

I followed your jump at 2:00 and I literally don't get enough forward momentum to make the jump, I'm running out of effigies :( (Edit: apparently the B button causes you to lose momentum so I swapped to LS and it worked flawlessly)

[@Shin.chichi]

That's so funny XD why would that have an effect on the jump itself? Thank you DS2, very cool

[@foreverunprepared6035]

"Now have Liysa move the path, speak to Falcon and buy a staff" didn't need to drop those bars fella what if Eminem sees you

[@AshinaOwl]

Bro brought the Needler to the function

[@ShaggyToad1]

I'm surprised you didn't mention semi-cheese for Fume Knight, where constantly healing triggers him to attack you, leading to him either delaying or completely ignoring his second phase.

[@EzioAuditore9655]

14:15 you can setup spell swap on console, but it requires a death and lava bridge bonfire.

[@Galgamos]

Question regarding the DLC bosses: Would it be possible to parry walk off of a player invader? :)

[@splee5556]

I believe so. Though I did not try.

[@aa-io1pc]

Elden Ring fans playing Dark Souls II for the first time:

[@akechijubeimitsuhide]

No joke, Elden Ring has so many ridiculous cheeses. I never fought a tree avatar or Night's Cav normally. There is always the high ground, or poison mist, or Comet Azur...

[@YOURteacher_100]

@@akechijubeimitsuhide like sekiro, it has a cheese for everything but the final boss

[@theFORZA66]

Tbh i played elden ring first, finished ds1 and am doing ds2 rn. Dark souls to me is overall easier (still challenging tho) but that could be because in er i never reallt cheesed and never summoned so i learned how to play against the bs adhd elden ring bosses which makes dark souls slower pace easier in comparison

[@Nin_tony]

​@@akechijubeimitsuhidetree avatars are so easy without cheese though?

[@akechijubeimitsuhide]

@@Nin_tony Probably, but they tend to have a convenient high ground nearby and rock sling go brrr (if it's a bit far away, I lure them with the bow). Even the Dragonbarrow Avatar is easy money this way.

[@hymen2393]

As someone living in Switzerland, I was disappointed about the quality of cheese!

[@FartingSpider12]

2:06 "Frag-rent" lol idk but that makes me laugh. Sounds more like you're talking about a type of kill in a mil-sim or FPS rather than talking about the smell of something

[@UnbreakableGrass]

Just wondering, most of the glitches in the glitch series you do, what console do you do these on?

[@splee5556]

Almost always PC.

[@pizletwizzler198]

I dunno dude... "setup perry-walk, fog-spawn boss, dark fog (repeat)" doesn't really taste like cheese. Fun video, but the only boss-battles you actually "cheesed" were the first dragon-rider, giant king and gargoyles. Rest I'd consider glitches, skips or sequence-breaks... Still an awesome video, though!👍

[@VileLasagna]

So, for Iron King, you can't just enter the fog wall normally while parrywalking and then literally walk back around the little gate over the lava? Because that sounds way funnier than doing the normal fog gate setup

[@splee5556]

You lose the Parrywalk state when you enter the fog gate unfortunately.

[@VileLasagna]

@@splee5556 Aawww, RIP the funny exit =(

[@Roseylovesgaming]

If you have crystal soul spear and a high enough intelligence you can 2 shot dark lurker. Depending on when you cast crystal soul spear you might have to dodge once

[@julius.caesar.]

Can the glitches/cheese be done in regular ds2(pc)? As in, not sotfs version

[@splee5556]

Yep! Might have to use different enemies to Parrywalk depending on the part; but they should still work the same other than that.

[@julius.caesar.]

@ awesome! Thanks:)

[@jpbfreemen7969]

You and Phobia should make a video together

[@JachymorDota]

Only in Dark Souls you can't give cheese to the rats.

[@TopMep]

Maybw i didnt pay attention, but this cant be current patch can it? I saw it was SOTFS but i recall parry walk and a bunch of these other glitches being patched in the most recent version

[@splee5556]

It is indeed current patch Scholar! A new version of Parrywalk was found a while back.

[@bulbul1253]

There should be a mod that makes you consume a Skyrim-cheese that gives overpowered buffs

[@splee5556]

Cheese flask!

[@BlooCobaltYT]

Helpful? Maybe rarely in the future, maybe. Entertaining? 100%!

[@retro8754]

do the parry-walk buddies just dissappear if you enter?

[@splee5556]

Yep! All regular enemies will be deactivated/disappear when you enter the boss fight.

[@arisrayden]

i appreciate the video and the effort but when a cheese strat requires you to zoom around half of the levels of the games including some very end game ones and the whole process takes longer than just playing the game normaly fighting every enemy to get to the first boss then i can't really consider it cheese. still fun but very becoming of the lactose intolrant

[@pabloqp7929]

Dayum boi

[@SetariM]

Hellllllllll yeah more cheese

[@Nin_tony]

Is it really cheese when half of the bosses in this game are piss easy to begin with?

[@bloodlictor5402]

Face reveal! Reveal the true face of cheese!

[@ericaguilar1124]

You just need iron arrows to break the jars in the covetous boss fight, not a great bow

[@Gshellshock]

Beside critiques this vid was the only DS2 related content I could watch ;).

[@PointlessProductionStudio]

Does not playing counts as a cheese?

[@jpbfreemen7969]

Pestilent mist them alll

[@gozmen5]

another one??? sign me up

[@Thief__lord__91]

Is this vanilla or sotfs?

[@splee5556]

Scholar. Most things work in both though.

[@Thief__lord__91]

@splee5556 thank you 👍

[@davidrw67]

can you do these on xbox

[@splee5556]

Most of them! A different setup is required for the attunement glitch though.

[@miasma82]

Was gonna go to bed but then i saw this and had to watch it. I have always liked ds2.

[@YTDariuS-my6dg]

>Lennongrast

[@MCKoki]

do i like dark souls 2? yeah do i also like cbt? obviously are those two things related? at this point you should know

[@salmonella7993]

Just because you make a dark souls video does not mean I have to wat.... fuck.

[@thatonedude]

but guys! Elden ring is worse! No! Don't point out the very harsh and obvious flaws of my game! Noooooo!
