The fact that he had the Baldor side sword drop naturally for him is insane since it has a 1 percent drop rate. Blessed run

[@Keeneye47_Wolfkeen]

Blessed with the swag sword that he will never use. Amazing.

@@Keeneye47_Wolfkeen I always get the baller swag sword on characters that will never be using it. Amazing indeed.

[@renatoramos8834]

Just started a dagger only run and that shit dropped from the second balder knight I killed. RNG is a fickle thing.

[@itsjusthayden2664]

Did a swag sword run and farmed for a few hours for it. Soon as I saw it I knew I would see this comment

[@jchart]

​@@Nerbit13098For Elden Ring most people tend to skip a lot of content and only do the "main story" or remembrance bosses for a recorded run or else every playthrough would take forever just from the sheer amount of them tucked away in every corner of the map.

​@@jchart Lot of side bosses are either just reused enemies or generally not that interesting to watch anyway, limiting bosses is better for viewers too imo.

my first darksouls 2 playthrough i did a have to parry run, where i wasn't allowed to kill a boss until i successfully parried them (or atleast got the I frames on an attack like fore smelter demon) the only one i never got was the nameless king.

I like how you show your mistakes and deaths instead of just editing them out of both the video and the script. It incorporates some hilarious moments as well as how genuine you are and not just showing a perfect run. This applies to your other videos as well💜

[@sou1fgc346]

[@giftedfox4748]

Next challenge, can you beat Dark Souls 2 by killing all the enemies? This means you have to kill every enemy until they stop respawning. No bone fire ascensions can be used. You cannot fight the boss in the area until everything is forever dead. This is more time consuming than anything else, so it is testing out your knowledge of the game as some enemies are hidden and your sanity.

[@SympatheticStrawman]

I tried doing that, it is INCREDIBLY tedious. Took me 2 hours to fully clear Forest of Fallen Giants

[@SpikedKirby]

@@SympatheticStrawman skill issue

[@giftedfox4748]

@@Sletchman Sure, if it is boring for the player then I won't suggest it. Like the immolation run only in Dark Souls 2 is very boring and takes forever but as shown can still be a good video. At least this challenge (which it is as some areas themselves are hard if you don't run past everyone) you can use whatever you want so long as you clear the area. The idea is just a unique idea that can only be done in DS2 since the other two games as soon as you teleport the enemies respawn.

[@Domo3000]

The pvp rat areas can't be cleared

[@goodmusic4673]

Fun fact: If you do the DLC with Artorias( no clue how to write his name) first Sif will recognize you(you rescue him in the DLC) if you fight him back in the Main Area and will behave different. At that point he fights you to protect you from the same faith as his former master which makes it pretty sad

2:15 50% more strength, which is then scaled according to the weapon. If a weapon has no strength scaling, 2-handing has almost no positives

[@ZoeBateman]

A Nerbit video? On one of my favourite games in my favourite series? Oh hell yeah, bring it on, I've been craving more souls challenge runs in my life Also, for anyone else wanting to do the club only run, you can make Nito even easier by getting the occult club from the same room you can get Havel's armour, and then un-ascending said club to get an easy +5 divine club. Considering skeletons are weak to blunt/strike and divine/holy damage, and it also makes them not respawn, it makes an already pretty easy boss even easier.

[@Mars.TN_]

I got addicted to this game last week and on my first ever run I beat the entire game with just a club. This is gonna be incredible, please do more dark souls videos!

Always cool to see new games on the channel, speaking of new games I don't know if you've ever played Dead Rising but an idea for them could be beating the first one with only guns

[@critica77y77]

I had an idea for a run. Can you beat Fallout 4 as Alex Mercer? Requirements: * Unarmed build with Explosives as a secondary combat method. * Your diet is exclusively blood packs and dead things that were killed recently. That includes people. Take the Cannibal perk. * Wear a hoodie or a leather jacket most of the time, but clothing taken from someone you ate is acceptable. * Get the Deathclaw Gauntlet as soon as possible. Use it often. * RadAway is the only chem you’re allowed to use. * You hate mad scientists with a burning passion. The Institute must die. * If the Brotherhood finds out that you’re a pre-war experimental weapon, killing you will be their top priority. Do yourself a favor and kill them first. * The Railroad is able to see the humanity in people who aren’t human. Not being human yourself, you appreciate that. They get to live. * You have no social skills. Be rude often. * Sex and romance are not for you. Avoid them. * Piper reminds you of your sister, Dana. Do something nice for her.

[@false4936]

Hey nerbit, glad to see a ds1 challenge run! As a long standing datk souls lover, I'd love to answer on of the questions you had about the stray demon. The most common strategy for stray is just to use a weapon with bleed or to use sorcery. He's super bad against bleed and a good bleed weapon can take him out Instantly! Well, not instantly, but pretty easily. I recommend the flamburge for people who like great swords, or the bandits knife for people who just like fast damage.

[@badgerbane]

The fact that you get the balder swag sword on basically your first Knight, in a run where you will never use it, upsets me greatly. I remember farming that goddamn sword for literal hours.
