Leave it to Yaz to make the Broken Straight Sword look good LMAO, and thanks for the shoutout and plug!! Can confirm to the commenters Yaz is genuinely as chill and positive as he is in his videos. Dude sees the light in this game and all of you 🙏🤙

God bless ds2 man Today I finish for 10 time and dude this is such a mind blowing masterpiece of a game ❤

[@starwalker7409]

as it is, this weapon cannot be bellow S- but i heard in the video that you want to use it again, when you use it with a katana in power stance you will see why it suddenly becomes an S+ to the max, the stamina consumption on this weapon doesn't change regardless of the weapon you use for the power stance. The poise damage of the weapon is really low, but because of how much it attacks, you could stagger a lot, maybe this video has more bosses staggers than any other but i could be wrong, if you use the stone ring you could have 2x more staggers at worst and 3x at best

[@tcdtboc8551]

Ive been doing a sl1 to ng7 and i kid you not a poison broken straight sword is so useful for offhand just to poison bosses when they are buffing up with reduced damage. Or a raw infusion with a buff using the stone ring to stunlock enemies because of low stamina cost. And considering how you can have an infinite amount of them if ones about to break you can swap to another lol. Id say that this is easily the most *broken* broken straight sword in all of souls for how strong it can be when set up right.

[@C1yde902]

What’s your main weapon in most fights?

[@tcdtboc8551]

​​@@C1yde902oh I'm just using stuff I can wield at base level mainly club or broadsword you can use stat boosting gear to make the game easier. I use peasant set to help make the rolling more tolerable. The run has been very interesting no where near as much of a struggle as I anticipated just time consuming I'm on the 6th playthrough then just one more.

[@C1yde902]

@@tcdtboc8551 wow, really? I’ve heard Ds2 Sl1 was supposed to be one of/the most difficult, so I guess I expected it to be a super-optimized slog. Good luck on +7 🫡

A KZbin channel you should definitely shoutout is Domo3000. He literally shows the hitboxes in the code for the souls series, probably the ultimate defence of ds2 from a hitbox point of view. He shows even ds3 has worse hitboxes.

Breaking Benjamin intro took me back to 06 and early yt vids/ amv's. You've been making vids for ds2 for a lil under 2 years, but you make it feel like ive been watching someone whose made content for a decade with how comfortable you are showing off this game. Your how to be op in ds2 video literally made me pick up ds2 again. 🙏

[@Intels_]

Mundane op as always i mean like i have a character with 36 points in each stat and a weapon that has s scaling in dex still gets like 15-20 more damage from mundane but sometimes enchanted gives more EDIT: New video defenitevly on the next saturday or sunday.

[@cyan_2877]

Felt like doing the calcs so a comparison, 99 in everything mundane with ROB +2, and sunlight blade. 380 damage base + 40.5 damage from buff. 420.5 AR total. 99 in fai, 99 in str, 10 att, 6 in everything else, ROB +2, Flynn's, sunlight blade, and lightning infusion. 385 base damage + 108 damage from buff. 493 AR total. That is 739 more levels for 72.5 less damage. mundane BAD

[@ethanpispas4098]

You forgot Sacred Oath. Regardless 385 base split damage is not even close to 380 pure physical. I bet my balls that mundane would actually hit harder, even when both are buffed, against MOST enemies (especially in the DLC). Having said that, yeah, mundane is bad.

[@ashley2449]

I've always maintained (to the hatred of my homies) that ds2 is monumentally underrated even as an officially rated like 9 out of 10 by most publications at release. but straight up I think ds2 would've been an elden ring level leap for the series if the games development wasn't so messy and especially if the game wasn't forced to launch on 360 ps3 era when next gen was already a year into its life span and scholar launched in 2015. so much of this games DNA ended up unashamedly in elden ring have u ever wondered why any non open world segment ends with some sort of boss encounter? it's because the director of ds2 had thought certain segments of 1 were unremarkable since they didn't culminate in boss fights. thus we got a boss for every area and mini area lmao, the frequency of invasions in elden ring? again he thought the npcs in ds1 were a mechanic that wasn't used enough so we got a thousand placed npc invasions in ds2. even bosses elden ring has a *problem* with "ganker and reused bosses" ? it's because ds1 has a single infamous early game gank boss and he simply thought it was an easy way to semi fairly scale difficulty for a relatively easy boss. what does any of this actually mean? who the fuck knows but it's faaaaaaar to coincidental . AFAIK Miyazaki has never directly mentioned inspiration from ds2 but seeing as it's the ONLY one he didn't direct and how elden ring has soo soo sooo many ideas that ds2 coined.

[@Souls.Gamer7]

Didn't expect that from you 😂

[@masktheory]

[@vokeepw]

would like to see a randomizer mod DS2 from you bro

[@MrAkaidu]

I remember reading somewhere that Lud, Zallen, and Ava share a mechanic with Sinh that makes most weapons take more durability damage due to gaving "tough hides", but that the cats ain't supposed to have it be as pronounced? Apparently it's a lot worse with scythes and halberds, too. Anyway iirc the durability damage modifier gets busted when you play at higher FPS so instead of taking 2x damage your weapons can be eating 4x or more.

[@pepperbird67657]

The fact you can make the broken straight sword good is wild

[@halo48189]

*HERE COMES THE PAIN TRAIN*

[@crestfallenhussar895]

Broken Straight swords are a blast. Never stuck with them all the way as a build though. Maybe I'll; try them as an offhand with a straight sword or katana though if you say it's even better. I think Silverback is still my favorite weapon though with that triple dark buff potential.

You should do a build where you 1 tap like every boss.
