Iaito and Shadow Set Location [From Firelink Shrine] - DS Remastered

[@bustedrims_Jr]

What sword are you using? You're killing them in two hits, and my main problem is that some enemies need to be killed, but it takes 15 hits to kill each one.

[@Giaki]

That's the Astora Straight Sword, I think it's +3 in this video.... In hindsight, I should have used a different weapon or not attacked enemies at all as I do in most videos! I recommend getting a weapon you like and upgrading it to at least +2 if it requires special titanites (such as demon or twinkling) , or +5 if it requires titanite shards. The easy way to do this is to just go to Andre the blacksmith and buying the shards from him to upgrade whichever weapon you want to upgrade. You can also just run past these monsters with a bit of trial and error until you get the Iaito and then upgrade that! Though I recommend going for more than one weapon, especially on your first playthroughs, so you can see which weapon you like the most!

THANK YOU for getting right to it without insufferable memeing and talking.

You're welcome! Sometimes simplicity is the best answer :)

Before you follow his route and I can't stress this enough, stock up on some Blooming Purple Moss. It removes both Poison and Toxic status effects.

[@Giaki]

It's definitely a good idea for a safer trip!

[@yummyyummy2091]

Bro I have just one How do I get more

[@scarletemperorrocky8900]

@@yummyyummy2091 Female Undead Merchant, take the usual route to the Depths (Make sure you're prepared for the trip), there's a set of stairs near the door to the Depths. Head on up, take care of the Thief Hollows and the Archer Hollow on your way up. There's a path that leads through a shortcut back to Undead Burg and Firelink Shrine. Unlock it. Turn around and continue to the merchant and talk to her. A single Blooming Purple Moss cost 1, 000 souls each. So you'll have to farm a bit.

[@crispyjeb]

00:02:07 There is a bon fire to the left here that some player might find useful to getting to this item.

[@crispyjeb]

xD be warned though, if you use the bon fire to make it easier to get this set then you will one hell of a time trying to get back to firelink.

[@Giaki]

@@crispyjeb Yeah that is true, it's mainly the reason as to why I don't really use it if I just want the set :P

That trek is making the uchigatana look a lot nicer...

I cannot disagree with that! Also Uchi is my favourite weapon, I wouldn't pick the iaito over it. Using both however...

You're welcome!

[@blackghost4085]

5:15 i just use the bone fire and now i'm stuck can someone help me

[@Giaki]

You'd need to backtrack from where you came from or try going forward until you reach another bonfire deep down! If that's still an issue you could always farm some levels on the nearby monsters and get vitality upgrades to survive longer. Don't forget to kindle the bonfire!

[@wilson3844]

Thanks! Very good guide.

[@Giaki]

I appreciate that a lot!! Thank you for watching :)

[@maritallaw9669]

It’s helpful until you realize most people watching are probably really early in the game and do no damage to these guys

[@Giaki]

My sword was quite weak though, you can easily do this with the starting weapon! Or you can take your time by waiting and letting the enemies move away.. The purpose of the video was to show the way to get the items!

[@supermonkey965]

@@Giaki the starting weapon does 20 damage to them, not 200 though. But the point of the video was the path so it's not a problem in itself.

[@giraffesushi8112]

its very easy to get through here starting. git gud

[@crispyjeb]

awesome, thanks!

[@Giaki]

Thank you for watching!

[@julienandrus4169]

feel like this moveset is less useful for tight quarters than the uchi due to how the uchi's stab has fewer chances to clank off walls, and moves your character less

[@Giaki]

I also have a slight preference in the uchi for the same reason!

[@AdelizaNera]

Thank you for this

[@Giaki]

You're welcome, ninja away!

[@redkirito3027]

I finished this game in 2 run, why i have not seen this part of blighttown before?

[@Giaki]

It all depends on whether you've taken the master key or not, really! If you don't pick it as a starting gift you will need to find keys in order to progress and that will make you need to explore more stuff in order to progress!

[@sinceresfloralmarket7080]

Or u can go there from the depth and not the firelinkshrine

[@Giaki]

@@sinceresfloralmarket7080 Yes, finding keys for progress will make you eventually get there from the Depths

[@TotinosOtherBoy]

@@yourfavoritezoomer9104 so in the undead burg bonfire right after firelink, theres that red ladder shortcut leading up to the bridge where the dragon breathes fire all over the place. Run up the ladder, up the stairs and poke around the corner of the railing of the stairs leading onto the bridge enough to trigger the dragon to breathe fire, then immediately go back down and rest on the bonfire. Go back up and repeat. Do this as many times as needed, youll get 555 souls each time.
