Can You Beat All DARK SOULS 3 Magic Challenges On One Character?

What would your snack of choice be to eat while watching this video?

In Dark Souls 3, you can use the hawk ring to boost the range of your attack spells ;) Also, boosting the range means more damage at close to mid range

Some miracle fun facts: -Lightning miracles, I think specifically the ranged spears and their incantation equivalents in ER, produce a second hit of damage when in melee range, for a bit extra damage (which is why they did more damage here). It’s visible as a damage proc usually right before you actually throw the spear, and as a small lightning strike separate from your cast. As far as I know, it’s not doubled damage, it’s much more mild. -Both “gnawing” miracles are dark miracles and thus deal dark damage. The reason Gael takes less damage from them, especially in his second stage, is that he gains the “hollowed” enemy modifier, which usually comes with higher dark defenses. I believe he gains this on the phase transition, and it’s testable by using something like the Hollowslayer GS, which will have its effect function. The gnawing miracles were even stronger on launch and got nerfed if I’m not mistaken, I used one to cheese dancer on my first playthrough. -The lightning bow miracle is locked behind Ringed City because Fromsoft hates fun and whimsy, this is an established fact. It’s seriously weirdly placed, yeah it was introduced with the dlc but it’d be more useful if it was available earlier on. -Words cannot describe the integrity of JK to not use ToD, and Siegward isn’t cheating, as the man is a walking miracle Edit: I actually forgot to mention that Gael has another enemy classification: abyssal! I believe he has this in both phases, and of course it also gives him higher dark defense. Though it’s harder to distinguish, since he doesn’t suddenly attain this modifier, weapons like the Wolf Knight GS will deal bonus damage to him!

"floating down like a butterfly in the moonlight" IT FLOATS DOWN?!?!

Crystal Sage being harder than all DLCs Bosses combined is certainly something I would never expect to witness.

for the Dark Souls 2, I strongly recommend using the binoculars in the other hand, as it allows you to aim spells like a bow, it's really usefull

If I had a nickel for every time i watched a dark souls 3 playthrough where they go for a sorcery build and then proceed to Pestilent Mist the Dancer of the Boreal Valley early on a whim and it actually worked, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice

Old Moonlight is a charged spell, it does insane damage if fully charged and both projectile and blade hit, it isn’t as bad as it initially seems and can rival soul spear

So here is an interesting fact about deacons. When you start the fight, the main deacon is actually stored inside Aldrich's coffin behind where his clothes drop. What that means is you can pestilent mist, toxic, or poison it through the wall to get some early damage while also fighting the red light deacons. Hopefully this helps!

Pyromancy last is defo the smartest choice too, as it’s the best magic in this game imo. NG+7 as a pyromancer so it’s definitely got the damage output.

Friday really is the best day of the week. Thanks, I've been really enjoying your content. Came for the challenge runs stayed for the puns.

Fun fact, you can actually kill wolnir with pestilent mist without him even waking up, you just cast it repeatedly on his hand

Sacred Flame is actually a really good Pyromancy against the Sage, as you can stunlock them so they can't teleport away

Oh, really looking forward to this. I've only stumbled upon your channel recently, but I enjoy your form of challenge runs.

2 things about the Pyromancy run, Boulder Heave is actually REALLY good vs the Abyss Watchers because you can with the correct timing chain it basically untill you run out of FP, hit them with Boulder Heave once then take 2 steps forward and use Boulder Heave again then repeat, you can do the same thing with Sacred Fame against the Crystal Sage

I'm getting the dark souls trilogy for ps4 from my mum for christmas, I've been watching challenge runs on the series to hype myself up and your videos are funny as hell! Giving me hope man! Bloodborne was my first souls game so I'm excited to see the difference in gameplay

Damn these challenge videos are actually better than most of the series from Netflix

JK delivers again. Your videos are always a joy to watch. You and Doom Wolf have to do a co-op run of Elden Ring or something, that would be epic. Thank you again for the entertainment.

My first run of Dark Souls 3 was a Strength/Faith build, and I fell in LOVE with the grandma that gnaws on you with teethless gums. It was such a useful spell for me and lowkey carried me through NG.
