Crossbow Cheese : • How to be OP and SL1 D...
[Changes]
My previous SL1 guide( • How to be OP and SL1 D... ) was done on the Prepare to Die edition, which had(and still has) an item duplication glitch that can be used to gain infinite amounts of humanity and souls. This glitch was patched in the remaster so I had made some necessary changes to reflect this.
[Weapons]
Instead of the Chaos/Lightning Reinforce Club, this guide uses a Pyromancy Flame and the Giant Blacksmith Hammer. Since humanity is going to be a finite resource having a chaos weapon would be a bad idea. Also farming for material is going to take longer since you cannot dupe homeward bones anymore. This route requires almost no farming(besides poison/blood moss farming, but the drop rate is so high that it will take no time) and requires 0 embers to upgrade.
[Spell setup]
Instead of using Great Fireball, this guide uses Great Combustion. While slightly lacking in damage the GC has twice the usage and half the cast time. I have also incorporated Power Within which I have neglected in my previous guide. With all the possible buff(Dusk Crown, Bellowing Dragoncrest Ring, Red Tearstone Ring, and Power Within), you can use Fire Tempest to One-Shot nearly all bosses in Dark Souls, including Kalameet.
[Q&A]
- I'm not really into summoning NPCs on SL1. Is there any other way of killing Qualaag early?
You can get a +5 reinforced club before Qualaag, but it's going to be a waste of precious time and souls. You can also just use the +0 hand axe. It will take a long time but with 10 estus and humanities, it is certainly possible. Use the R2s exclusively as it will do superior damage over the R1s.
- I'm not really into pyromancy, is there any alternative?
You can watch my previous guide and swap the Pyro Flame to the Chaos(or Fire) Reinforced Club. Its definitely going to be harder tho.

[@user-tm7yr8yt6n]

Hi

[@JasonHallows]

For a soul level 1 (or, really, any build with extremely low health) it's beneficial to retain cursed status. Since it halves your max health and, combined with dusk crown ring, your max hp becomes 143. This is beneficial, because it means you can lower the damage taken from power within to 1 damage per second (1% of 143 is one, rounded down). Coupled with sanctus (you don't need the stats for the healing effect) which heals 2 every 2 seconds, the effects cancel out. This means you can maintain a constant level of health, neither losing or gaining any as the effects cancel out, meaning you can proc red tearstone without dying because of power within, while not healing too much that you eventually lose the effect. You could likely do this with the pyromancer setup you opted for, but you'd be limited to one attunement slot for great combustion (with 50% more combustions due to the dusk crown ring). Mostly though, it favours a melee SL1 and your damage becomes ridiculously strong. If you roll with that into NG+ you can get a second power within, which in turns gives you 3 (2, plus dusk ring 1). This also works for any glass cannon build, which is also good.

[@Cerberex666]

For those of you looking to do this yourself, I recommend the much more consistent, albeit dangerous method of alternating hits on quelaag between you and mildred. You can do this to abuse her aggro AI so she never actually kills mildred and finish the fight much faster, as mildred's AI can be finnicky, however this does run the risk of getting you killed.

[@shadesilverwing0]

Her AoE kills me in the "safe spot" every time anyway because Mildred insists on luring her right next to me. Guess I'll try your method. Edit: Discovered using the shield against the AoE leaves me with a sliver of health, kindled bonfire for extra healing, it worked out after a few more tries.

Your editing and sense of humor are right up my ally

[@derekmellon8304]

Played/beat this game for the first time earlier this week. Trying this run now and so far it has gone great. Already in the Demon ruins. Thanks for the guide!

[@derekmellon8304]

Just realized, I never updated this. I beat this challenge on 9/24/2021. Couldn't one shot manus, he was by far the most challenging for me. I died many times learning what could be blocked and what needed evasion/silver amulet timing.

I had to pause the video at 10:38 when Megalith-Agnes Dei started playing, and subscribe.

I fuccing LOVE these kinds of edits - so awesome to watch and it's also useful! To the author of the video @ymfah - bravo! Thank you for entertaining us, great video :)

The true challenge is mustering the resolve to kill the giant blacksmith. His sacrifice will not be forgotten. Never again.

We need a mod that degrades performance in besttown, for the best experience

[@TRUProjectOMR]

Finally attempted SL1 after never trying it before and followed this guide to a T. Surprisingly enough, the most troublesome boss was the centipede demon for me. Fantastic guide. Entertaining, educational, and very well thought out. Not only that, was able to complete SL1 run without much hassle thanks to all the easy to follow steps. Thanks a ton; subscribed!

After watching through a bunch of your videos, I can’t help but notice that you are a dunkey fan.

[@rishthefish37]

I got dsr on switch yesterday, this is the most helpful guide I’ve found! Thx fam for all the help with this game!

[@veras7927]

If you are currently having problems watching the video in the mobile KZbin app, try to watch it on KZbin in a Web browser instead. The video should load properly then.

[@LuvinooIce]

Emrakul, The Aeons Bored its fixed now

[@blockwearingman]

great tutorial, great style of making the video, some mems but not too many and not too anoying, and very good information also i really like your humor

[@boarhatfisher9701]

Ymfah... the guy who will volunteer to go around burning guy's groins and not feel a hint of regret or pain from his own groin... you sir are my hero

[@midnight-fox7456]

I got inspired by this video to do SL 1 run myself, I just burned Gwyn to a crisp. Thanks for making me love this series even more :3

[@AaronCorr]

This is what motivated me to push through DS1 for the first time

[@thepearled0120]

Just beat an SL1 playthrough a couple days ago! Didn’t follow this guide exactly, mostly figured out my own methods, but this still got me through a couple of really tight spots. Cheers mate! 👍

[@ashton2253]

hearing blessed and possessed at the beginning of a ymfah video is so comforting

I come back just to replay the intro to this video. It's simply Beautiful

[@thephotographyexpert7314]

Followed this guide to the T and was able to complete my first SL1 run in any game ever !!

[@Heymrk]

When you killed Leeroy, the sound effect should have been "at least I still have chicken."

[@carlosauro4127]

Oh my goodness the minute 19:10😂 are you a genius?! I'm crying 😂😂

[@cbt9672]

Thank you man, I did it with your help of you and I was very happy

[@shirazmohamed5835]

The MGS soundtracks make this so much better , and the ladder climb with mgs3 SE being played was so nostalgic , thank you.

[@ZombieMash]

2 seconds in, insta-liked. Love your videos mate.

[@karddoespiano2300]

The time has come. I’m going to try it as an actual guide for my first ever SL1 run. Wish me luck!

[@ladyfox6705]

Same here! How did your run go in the end?

[@karddoespiano2300]

@@ladyfox6705 Hi! After a year I finally found the time to attempt this and you know what? It turned out to be a completly valid guide! There were some kinks and places where I went and done something myself, but for 95% of the time I followed the video and it was an awesome expirience! (except for bed of chaos, it was horrible). I usually play dex=sex fighters and checking some OP pyromancy build was very fun. Completed the SL1 run in about a week after work and had a great time :)

[@karddoespiano2300]

@@ladyfox6705 Although it has to be noted that you need to play the game yourself beforehand. I feel like it is assumed that you are familiar with bosses and places and for a complete novice this guide wouldn't work

[@airshow406]

I live for the Great Big Sea beatdown montages in these videos.

[@Dracomir]

Thanks, bro) I did SL1 after your video) Now, I'm going to do SL1 in DS2.

[@charliechar2717]

the intro gave me blue balls because I was expecting to hear blessed and possessed but I only got Gwyn's theme don't leave me with blue balls man

[@darylrecaido6353]

Your music choice is awesome

[@chadmatadordemanus4004]

already watch this video 15 times, you and the ymfah guy.

[@serenity4330]

Im currently using this guide as this is my first ever soul level 1 playthrough. Got to the artorias part. In the video it says 9/10 he'll do the sword spin. I didnt get that in my first fight. He ended up jumping on me instead. Fun lol. 10/10 guide.
