I've seen a bunch of DS1 videos/speedruns, so I knew pretty much exactly how this would go but it took an embarrassingly long amount of time to figure out why you bought the East-West Shield (I didn't realize it was part of a meme roll setup until it was time to set up the Blighttown meme roll.)

[@swagiro824]

what is a meme roll?

[@splee5556]

Mostly bought if for safety against the dogs. You can do the same meme roll set up with the straight sword hilt if you don't buy the shield.

[@splee5556]

@@swagiro824 It's a glitch where if you're between 25.1% and 29% equip load (in Remastered specifically), the game will let you chain rolls together mid-air, and survive falls you would normally die from.

[@swagiro824]

@@splee5556 thank you for taking the time to respond king !

[@cEighteen]

Its not a remastered specific glitch, its a 60fps specific glitch. People who played ptde with 60fps mod knew about the glitch, but they never bothered patching it for the remaster

[@rockers995]

Also the fact that you didn't level up your endurance before that insanely tight sprint to the dukes archives is such an enormous flex

[@decoy3540]

I've played dark souls and watched these types of videos for years and I still learn new stuff like that asylum demon skip

[@Engiepie]

8:10 Imagine its your first playthrough and you discover this shit by complete accident

[@HornyHamster]

Wasn’t my first play through but it happened to me and I was confused lol

[@mradsi8923]

Something similar happened to me. I died in firelink stairs to undead burg and while loading the game crashed. When I loaded in again I was falling to my death in the new londo ruins. Quite similar to the setup for new londo-blighttown skip.

[@dardardarner]

I had this happen to me, but on Tarkus. I summoned Tarkus for this fight, and he managed to recreate this glitch. After the attack, Tarkus just straight up disappeared in my screen and the message that he died showed up.

[@grogueQ]

I actually used a glitch to get the moonlight great sword, but it was in Elden ring, and it was way easier. So my suggestion is get the Moonlight Greatsword in Elden ring, then wrong Warp to the beginning of Dark Souls. You have to be simultaneously playing both games on PC for this to work. I feel like I would have a better chance of that working than trying your method.

[@diabeticmonkey]

I’ve heard that that’s only possible if you’re playing the PC version of Bloodborne in the background.

[@GyorfiAlex]

​@diabeticmonkey you also need to unlock every combat art in sekiro 2 dlc

[@yellowheartoverheaven]

But wouldn't i need to beat Dark Souls Archthrone first?

[@afelias]

Help, I accidentally let slip to Renna that I was the Chosen Undead, and she locked me in an Evergaol.

[@basaltcrust1915]

Was the glitch talking to a blue lady, killing a big dude, falling through a hole in the maps geometry, going through nokron to get the fingerslayer blade, wrongwarping back to the blue lady, talking to her and using her dialogue to duplicate -1 fingerslayer blades, going to a nearby tower and wrongwarping to astel, defeating astel then heading to liurnia, grabbing the key, wrongwarping to the doorway, using the key to noclip through the door, wrongwarping to raya lucaria, going through and fighting a mother of 20, wrongwarping to space, defeat the mother of 20 before she had children, using a chest in the mother of 20 arena to glitch a ring into your inventory, wringwarping back to astel, and glitching the ring onto blue lady's finger or was it a different glitch? That's the one I usually use, sorry if I missed a few steps on how to perform this glitch, the last time i did this was about a year ago and my memory is poor

[@General_C]

You will hear a buzzer.

[@BorntoOrnn]

So, before watching the video, and going off of experience I have from watching speedruns and trying some glitches, I'll take a guess of how you do this run. You skip Asylum Demon by doing the True Asylum Demon Skip, ending up outside the arena without opening the door; you then make a beeline for New Londo Ruins and Valley of Drakes, by picking the Master Key at character creation. You run to Darkroot Basin, go up to Andre and use the stairs that lead to the Undead Parish to perform the death cam glitch, unloading the gates for Sen's Fortress and walking right in. You run through Sen's Fortress normally but grab the greatsword from the NPC on the other side of the broken bridge to perform the Iron Golem grab glitch so you get sent flying into Anor Londo. Once in Anor Londo, you run to the entrance to Duke's Archives, use some of the geometry outside of the place to get over the door and fall into the corridor into the Archives and, from there, just do the area normally until you get to Seath, where you have to do the hardest part of the entire run: actually running his tail. ... I watch too much ymfah on my free time. Edit: so... right on some things, wrong on others. Still, I was actually impressed by the elevator glitch to unload the door to Duke's Archives, never seen that one before. Good video, enjoyed it.

[@tanamotokazuma7553]

Extremely interesting video, never heard of this deathcam in anor londo, liked and subscribed

[@Zantorious]

Thanks dude! Did this in the switch version although I had to kill the iron golem and O&S before getting the Moonlight Greatsword for convenience.

[@tiredasf107]

The drop to blighttown was actually insane

[@M01st_Nu6g3t]

I just beat dark souls 1 for the first time only a few days ago, there's a part of me that wants to play the game again cause I used the Black Knight Halberd and it decimated every boss. however, both Sens Fortress and Bed of Chaos were blind panic runs and made me completely demotivated to beat the game (Though I still did). Total boss deaths I had was 28 with 24 of them being bed of chaos. the other four were Taurus Demon, Grey Wolf Sif, and Seath.

[@splee5556]

That's the great thing about Dark Souls; there's a lot of different ways to play it! Bed of Chaos is a pretty rough boss unless you cheese it with firebombs or arrows.

[@M01st_Nu6g3t]

@@splee5556 I did want to try a mage and getting my hands on the moonlight GS however I've been practicing some of the glitches and I can't get most of them XD Specifically the ladder one, the duplication glitch, meme roll, and the sen gate skip. so pretty much all of them.

I am extremely well versed in DSR & PTDE, all exploits and bugs included, and I have never seen that Depths skip before. Until now I’d assumed Capra was required to go to The Depths, and it never really bothered me because you can kill him easily with Dung Pies in even the most hardcore challenge runs.

Still waiting for the adds to finish so I can start the video, but predictions are: - firebomb then quit-out for asylum demon skip - master-key to get to sens via valley - pick up depths key from the back entrance of the undead chapel region - cross bridge to get the sorcerer teacher in Depths for fall damage spells and rings - death cam to skip Bells - great sword grab glitch to skip Iron Golem - fall damage spell delay to skip golden gates at Duke Goldgate (ymfah video) - complete Duke's and grab the tail. Adds are done, so I'll edit once I finish! EDIT: Hah, seems I was on the wrong track for the very start. Forgot that the prep-work for weapons and damage also count. Either way, congrats on the run, and have a good day!
