[@dan007d]

@@holykonchu7250 No, only the Storm Ruler buff can be applied using the bow glitch, but there's another glitch that may interest you that does just that, look it up it's called "Weapon art swap" and it's the one where you do a weapon art, swap weapons, take a step, and do a weapon art again.

I'm still confused on the beginning where you roll hold L2+ walk, I end up doing that and walking but it seems like I'm not doing it right, I do it right and wrong sometimes and I don't know if I'm doing it right

[@dan007d]

So you backsteb, and in the middle of the backsteb hold L2 and walk. Also remember you can't walk before the last step so make sure you're standing still the whole time.

[@dan007d]

And if you're rolling first, remember that when you roll you have to move the joystick forwards first, so that can mess up the glitch since you walked slightly. Backstebs are recommended

[@VariableLyon]

Fun fact: I discovered myself that Heysel Pick Sacred Flame is a portable one shot, since Heysel Pick is a catalyst and a Pickaxe. I discovered myself this glitch because of a player using a character named PhD (or PxD), and then i searched for it. Ever since i started doing it about 8 months ago i questioned myself on the start if Heysel Pick would already one shot the Sacred Flame, since it is a pickaxe that 2-hit crits and a catalyst. I was right. Now the only thing i do is invade with a stealth Milkring below 30% weight build and come from nowhere one shotting hosts. Using Untrue Dark Ring and curling up with Thief Mask, Fire Keeper Robe, Desert Pyromancer Gloves and Karla's Trousers on a corner will many times let you be pretty much invisible. You can get up, cancel Farron Dart with Heysel Pick, come up to the host rolling with Carthus Milkring and do the glitch when you are near the host. They never expect it.

[@dan007d]

Nice, I would recommend to use the Slumbering Dragoncrest Ring as well, it makes all your rolls 100% quiet, so people can't hear you coming as well. It also hides Tears of Denial so you can add it to your build without worrying about it giving out your location.

[@VariableLyon]

@@dan007d Actually, the 4 rings that i use are in order Untrue Dark Ring, Milkring, Obscuring ring and Slumbering Dargoncrest. I also have Untrue White on inverntory in case i want to cast Hidden Body and look like an apparition, Cat Ring and Favor just in case i see a ladder or i have to run a lot. Having all those rings that i mentioned on your inventory gives you a nice ring inventory that you can change easily from one to another when needed. On right hand 1 and 2 i use the Chaos Dagger and the Heysel Pick, and on the left 1 and 2 the blessed caestus and Pharis Bow. The Fire Keeper Robe doesn't show the quiver that you have with bows, so you aren't busting your own coverage with it. This with 40 VIT makes you go to 29.4% weight proportion. The only way someone can catch an experienced player with this build is if they are using headphones or playing on high volume which will make they hear the "sand noises" you make while rolling, which no one does because the game's volume is so high that on all 10 if you put your TV sound on 6 you can hear the air.

[@VariableLyon]

@@dan007d Also, you don't need tears of denial if you are going to one shot the host. I have 6 attunement slots and my spells are in order Farron Dart, Sacred Flame, Soothing Sunlight, Chamaleon, Hidden Body, and just in case (altough it never is used and i just put it there because i didn't have anything better) Dead Again. Any buff in this case other than tears cannot be used, since they give your character an aura.

[@dan007d]

@@VariableLyon That's a sweet build, like an assassin, silent and deadly lol.

[@VariableLyon]

@@dan007d Sadly, it isn't very viable at level 140. My character is SL 161 and i did that because since everybody stays on 140 because they think 120 is the meta, the meta now is pretty much 140. Because of the stats, i had to switch to Onislayer Greatbow instead of Millwood, but it works as well and it let you snipe. Using stretch out is good too, but it has an animation that takes up more time. On Pontiff's Bonfire (aka Gank City) where the Deacon's keep spamming fireballs on you there are a lot of bushes that you can hide very well within. Anyways, it is indeed a great build, and i can only think of how hard the hosts get scared when i just pop out of nowhere with their death on my hands, but i will give anyone who see this message 4 tips: 1- "Don't expect the place near the Gravetender's to be have good hiding spots, you are black and everythig there is white." 2- "You can do this on arena but it isn't safe to one shot, so just use the dagger to backstab." 3- "Switch region matchmaking to on, you can Black Crystal invasions if you see cereal box 2ping 0pak internet." 4- "this build is nuclear on untended graves."

[@TheLuciano1806]

Btw, if you die in an invasion while using the dragon torso glitch, it'll go away

[@dan007d]

Yeah that's the annoying part, even if you die on an arena match you will still lose it. My best advice will be to have the armor easily accessible to do it in between invasions

[@jaynicko1917]

Figured out if you do the flame surge into sacred flame you just put your hand out and if anyone touches you up close they get grabbed

[@irithylloldman6526]

just noticed something. Everything that works with the farron parry also works with the Yorshka's spear WA, like the weird darkmoon buff on the dagger and all Also, doing that and switching between the two weapons will only perform their respective WA. For example if you do Yorshka's WA then switch to Farron and do the glitch, it will only trigger the regular parry animation. I'm investigating to see what's the link between both of them, and if there is any other weapon in that case Edit : The lothric war banner does the same, maybe it's common to all WA that can "buff" the weapon, but then why does it not works with the Greataxes, and why does it works with Farron, which is not a buuf. Also, I noticed that the dagger buff does damage when you walk forward.

[@dan007d]

From my understanding there's like 10+ classes of weapon arts Some types are: *-Stance* (you hold your weapon then do R1 or R2) *-Stomp* (poise weapon arts that follow up to a launch R2) *-Spin* (spin combos, like sellsword, exile) *-Attack/Self buff* (Estoc L2, War Banner L2, Farron L2, or any weapon that just does the weapon art without any follow up R1 or R2) *-Catalyst buff* (talisman regen and staff buff) Each weapon in the game has a move for each class but only has one active when you press L2, the inactive ones are just set to a default move. Except the ones that have a cut move, for example the Onikiri and Ubadachi, it has the normal weapon art where you jump when you press L2 but it also has a scrapped weapon art where you hold a stance, what we're doing is swap a stance from any weapon to force trigger it in the Onikiri and Ubadachi with the glitch. So what matters when swapping isn't the first weapon but the weapon art class of the first weapon. What we're doing is looking for a scrapped weapon art that the developers intended for a weapon, decided it didn't fit in the game but didn't remove, just made it inaccessible by changing what weapon art class the weapon does when pressing L2.

[@dan007d]

So when you swap weapon arts from the same class all you're doing is triggering the weapon art that's already set to trigger when you hit L2, nothing extraordinary happens. The most extraordinary thing that would happen is that since you're forcing the weapon art and not doing it normally, the game can get kinda confused and allow you to move during the weapon art, like the walking estus glitch I showed in the video. I chose to show Farron's parry only because it's the easiest and quickest one, and it doesn't costume any FP at all. It's perfect!

[@dan007d]

The weapon art classes are the same as the Weapon Art Swap Glitch ones (Onyx Blade buff on Follower Sabres) Remember how you could only weapon art swap weapons with similar weapon arts? That's exactly what's going on here. This is the list of some weapon art classes I found on a post: (There's more than that) Group A Crescent Moon Sword, Dragonslayer Greataxe, Dragonslayer's Sword Spear, Pontiff Knight Scythe, Rose of Ariandel, Estoc, Lothric War Banner, Wolnir's Holy Sword, Tailbone Short Spear, Tailbone Dagger, Moonlight Greatsword, Firelink Greatsword, Yorshka's Spear, Butcher's Knife, Eleonora, Bloodlust, Follower's Torch, Follower's Javelin, Crossbows with Shoulder Thrust WA, Irithyll Rapier, Farron Greatsword, Immolation Tinder. Group B Onyx Blade, Follower's Sabre, Mailbreaker, whips, Ricard's Rapier, daggers with blindspot, candlesticks, Sunlight Straight Sword. Group C Harald Greatsword, Exile Greatsword, Demon's fist, Ringed Knight Paired Greatswords, Pontiff Knight Curved Sword, Drang Twin Hammers, Dancer's Swords, Scimitar, Sellsword Twin Blades, Gottard's Twin Swords, Painting Guardian Sword, Winged Knight Halberd, Demon's Scar. Group D Ledo's Greathammer, Ringed Knight Spear, most spears

[@irithylloldman6526]

@@dan007d oh ok I see it makes sense that the WA classes are the same that the swap move glitch, and that would also explain why Battlecry sucks and doesn't combo with anything except Battlecry.

Did you told something about your answer to me on the server ?

[@castel_komodo]

excellent video, but I do not quite understand the glitch of the dragon stone. should L2 be maintained when? Should you put the stick forward?

[@dan007d]

I really didn't explain it much because it goes the same way as all the others. You hold L2 and hold your joystick forward in the middle of the backstep animation, so you can do it in the first exact frame you come out of the backsteb. So, you use the Dragon Torso Stone, cancel it by either falling off a ledge or getting hit, without moving your character put on any armor you want, then when you're done do a backsteb and hold L2 and walk, and the Torso Stone should trigger automatically right when you come out of the backstep

[@dan007d]

Ahh that's a great question, they didn't show very well with the bow glitch so I had to use another method to hold them, which was discovered way before the bow glitch. It's Homeward Holding, if you look at my spells I have Homeward on the spell slots. So what you do is, run forward, use Homeward but cancel the teleport by jumping, put a Greatbow in your off-hand and two-hand it, press R2, open your menu and swap the Greatbow for an infused weapon. If Homeward was done correctly the R2 should be held by itself after releasing it so you can go in your menu and swap things around. Here's a video of it in action: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3_Gf2N8fNmnick This glitch is weird, if you press R2 it will be locked until you press L2, and vice-versa. So if you find that you're pressing R2 and nothing is happening try to press L2, that should unlock it.

Hmm it shouldn't be hard, I will leave a more detailed explanation here, hope it helps: Do the Composite Bow weapon art, cancel it *immediately* by backstepping, go in your inventory and remove the right hand bow from your inventory so you end up with a bow in your left hand and bare fists in the right, backsteb and hold L2 and walk, and right when the glitched animation starts playing stop moving right away so the animation plays out correctly.

Then without walking go in your inventory and swap the Katana for the Onikiri and Ubadachi, close the menu, backstep, and in the middle of that backstep *hold* L2 and walk forward at the same time. Make sure you hold them and keep holding them before the backstep animation finishes, and it should work.

[@Realsham_b]

@@dan007d Oh yeah now it works, i see my error now. I was holding the katana stance, stopping it and then i go in my inventory, i wasn't doing a backstep, thanks.

[@slimetunersis5373]

HEY! hi, it’s me again, i’ve done all the glitches in this video except gundyer’s kick, can you please tell me how to do it? 😭

[@dan007d]

Do the bow weapon art I did in the video, cancel it *immediately* by backstepping, go in your inventory and remove the right hand bow from your inventory so you only end up with the left hand bow and nothing in your right hand, backstep and hold L2 and walk, and right when the glitched animation starts playing stop walking right away so the rest of the animation plays out correctly.

[@slimetunersis5373]

[@Chuckvsfrank1232]

I've got the technique down, but the millwood bow one wont work for some reason

[@Chuckvsfrank1232]

Never mind after rewatching it a couple times I realize you have to start the shooting animation with the repeating crossbow before you cancel the weapon art. That's what I was doing wrong.

[@dan007d]

@@cascade4661 What are you doing wrong? When you try to use the Dragon Torso Stone, are you doing it too early and not dropping off a ledge to cancel it? Or is it the last part when you're doing the bow glitch? Remember that when you're putting on armor you can't walk at all, you need to stand still.

[@MyFlipTrick]

Is the great bow machine gun glitch still possible ? Every time I try it it just puts the great bow up and then down again like it’s trying to start and then it cancels

[@dan007d]

When you have Gael's Crossbow you need to actually shoot the arrows, not just put the Crossbow up. So L2 and R1

Yeah I was looking back at this video and I didn't explain it very well, you have to do he weapon art and start shooting the arrows, you can do what I did and roll immediately after to cancel it. And after that swap to the Greatbow backstep and *hold* L2 + walk in the middle of the backstep animation.

[@MoonlitEmbers010]

Speedy reply...my guy! Same name?

[@coltonbmw0360]

So when you apply a buff like lightning blade using this glitch, is it using the spell buff of the pyro flame?

[@dan007d]

It's using the spell buff of whatever you have equipped. If you cast a spell with an off-hand catalyst, then swap that catalyst for a bow and do the bow glitch it will use the spell buff of the bow. If you cast a spell with a main-hand catalyst, then swap that catalyst to whatever weapon you want to tumble buff, it will use the spell buff of that weapon.

[@coltonbmw0360]

DanMaster007 Oh I see. So you’re not gonna get super high damage using this glitch cuz it applies the weakest form of any buff spell like dmb. Kinda lame to be honest but oh well. It’s more for the edge lords 😎

I did it, it works great The question is 'is there any way to roll/move forward? Cuz I've seen videos of people roll forward and able to continue the glitch

[@dan007d]

As long as you don't physically take a step the glitch will never go away, so you can backstep and roll for as long as you want if you don't actually walk. Btw have in mind that if you just roll normally out of standing still there's a good chance your character will take a small step before rolling, so do a backstep before you start spamming roll

[@dan007d]

That's the very first thing we tested but nope, no boss invasions :( Miyazaki in his last patch changed the Homeward spell so it's linked with the player's ID, so the spell can't be triggered no matter what at the second "invading another world" message. So yeah, that gets completely blocked out, we're looking for other ways to boss invade but no luck yet...

It's pretty simple, have a bow in your left and the Storm Ruler in your right, two hand the Storm Ruler and *hold* L2, backstep out and immediately stop holding L2 to make sure your character stands still after that backstep, without walking swap from your inventory to any weapon you want, close the menu, backstep and in the middle of that backstep start holding L2 + walk, and after you start the stance weapon art keep holding L2 until the storm effect appears on your weapon, which should take around three seconds. I don't know if that souded complicated but it's just because I described every little thing, it's actually extremely easy. Check minute 8:06 to visualize it.

Yup you can, that's why it's not that OP, but don't call it a counter just yet! If the bow glitch user is skilled enough he will know how to fight against that, remember the spell will be queued as long as you don't take a step, so he can roll and roll and roll waiting for an opening, and when he finds it he can infinite stunlock you in an instant. That's why knowing how this glitch works is important, so that you can be prepared for anything.
