Ahhhhh the old "can't hurt me if im already hurting" method. As an adult, i can relate.
Dragons dogma is both an action game and a turn based one. Item usage and strategy is vital to getting the most out of challenge runs. You really take you time planning out what to do when you leave that menu screen.
Indeed, I like that about Dogma. At the same time I hope for some kind of penalty when healing in dd2.
@@The_Rift How about reversing Consumables and healing spells properties? Can't get above grey life using consumables or maybe an ultra rare only 1 per run and Healing spells allowing to regenerate above.
This would make mage even stronger for their support abilities and a real challenge for those who goes solo assassin's as they can't get away with pots.
@Grim bud
I actually kinda like this idea, and agree it would definitely make Mage healing spells much more useful.
@@The_Rift The consumables were my only gripe with the game mechanics. So long as you didn't get oneshot, you could just spam curatives and act like nothing happened. No animation to leave you vulnerable and you could carry hundreds of them. Periapts were kinda boring too and explosive consumables were just broken.
Well, that and warriors getting the shortest end of the stick.
Pausing a game doesn’t make it turn based. Gotta love people who try to make these comparisons so they can say they play turn based games
Masterfully done, Arisen. Here's to Dogma 2. Cheers!
Ayy, cheers to dd2 my man!
As we're all! Now i just need to have a Job myself, and say goodbye to the unemployef status ='D
cheers for us brothers and sisters of the arisens we will rise
"That's pay-to-win" 🤣
Best quote
I've done the BBI challenge before, it is so much fun. I did it with hard mode and as assasin, I used pawns some but not often
you used Pawns as fodder for death, they can't escape him anyways
Capcom is so good at making battle systems man each and every Capcom action game is always something i fall in love with ever since DMC1 then came Onimusha and then MH came out and was the same and the same thing happened with DD too
heck now im technically super hyped by a game whose combat is built by former Capcom devs
Man, hearing Onimusha warms my heart. Capcom have so made classics.
what game are you talking about being built by former capcom devs?
@@GaetanoMalatesta FFXVI and also VII-Rebirth Rebirth got key Capcom devs about 2 to 3 years ago for their combat and other key reasons
it's not just Ryota Suzuki who is directing the combat of FFXVI there are people who worked on Monster Hunter World Iceborne working on VII-Rebirth too
I remember doing this casually. I would always just go straight to Bitterblack Isle because of just how much exp you could get by cheesing the first boss, and all the amazing items that were available. It turned every minor enemy into a major boss fight, and it led to one of the longest hydra fights I have ever had. But god was it satisfying when I finally won without screwing up and losing hours of progress.
Didn't limit myself from range but I did this when bbi first came out. Glad to see this game is getting so much attention. It was an amazing experience, truly one of my favorite games and is what turned me onto the dark souls series. If you haven't played this and it looks cool, trust me, you'll enjoy it.
I was expecting a throwback to Vageta311's bitterblack challenge from back in the day. Basically the same thing tho haha
Was hoping someone would mention him! The main reason I played DD and DS1, I miss his videos
@@silent_pete same! I hope he's doing well out in the world.
Vageta311 the absolute goat. Love to see people still remember him
Oh damn didn’t actually think that was possible. Hats off to you
Man, I just had to be on vacation at the same time as you did this challenge
Nah man, you enjoy that vacay brother ✊
Now we have dragons dogma 2 trailer :)
Ok, I'm impressed with how you got passed the Dark Bishop. Most people hide in the passage way until the Bishop enters; he can't fly out of range in there. But you took him out fair and square.
Arisen hechicero, 3 peones hechiceros y Torbellino D, así lo maté yo.
I did this challenge a few years ago! Was a lot of fun 😊 It was inspired by my Dark Souls challenge runs!
2:53 I can really see how fast you're doing the "analog thing" to escape in your voice 😂
Great video and feat my dude :D
Ahaha, that thing huh. Didn't even break my analog stick, it's all good.
The original BBI challenge is you cannot go further than the 'Encampment'. Defeat the 1st cyclops and then BBI opens, create your pawn and go to BBI; throw pawn into the brine never to see him/her again. Gazer at level 12 is by far a tough fight. You can sleep at Cassardis to refresh and one must defeat both forms of Daimon. BTW farming level 2 weapons from the 'Black Abbey' ornate chest is grindy but sneak around to get them without fighting. Happy grinding lol.
To me is not fun doing that... I prefer "grind" some levels, Dragon forge my gear, and use the items at shop to surpass some of the most dangerous place of BBI, which are not far away from the start, per example... be able to survive a one shot from the big skelleton while trying to gatter the first key... kill the first mimic to get exp boost items for dragon exp multipliers and so on... either farming thrownblast
@@bso1538 level 2 weapons get the job done and grinding a little is unavoidable but one must know what to grind and bbi armor is a waste when running solo. I did it as an Assassin and then a Sorcerer both with basic DF armor but GF main weapons. My point was the initial challenge rules were posted a while back on Google. Just enjoy.
@@tomidomusic I agree on that point, "Just enjoy" which is the point of all this... enjoy the game we love.
Nah, just rest to midnight and instant drop bbi like a real gamer
When I struggle to kill that freaking Daimon, and I die when he has 1 healthbar, but this dude is killing him on lvl. 60 (maybe).
What build do you have. Are you an archer because if you are using a conqueror and then blasting arrows.
@@renown35nuke70 I kinda have a normal build. And I put on the second muscle style.
The one thing I loved about this game is that the magic was soooo good. One of the few games where I actually had fun as a mage.
Tier 1 spells are just basic spells you've seen so many times so acceptable.
The elemental bolts are interesting I spent like 10 minutes just to see the effects for each element the first time I played a mage
Tier 2 spells are where the fun started, fire wall? Giant ice spikes from the ground? An electric whip? Poison clouds that's somehow very op? Yes
Tier 3? You're basically a walking natural disaster
@@blastmole299 I'm currently playing as a sorcerer and let me tell you- Maelstrom is what dreams are made from
@@vshiki4872 Hell yeah
I did this by accident. I was dumb and couldn't figure out how to leave Bitterblack. Friends claimed I moved in there and that's where the story of my Arisen ended.
Good times.
You are truly motivated.
Well buddy, you got your trailer. And what a trailer it was. Also, the music you chose for the intro felt like should be the theme song for Daimon. It's scary, unpredictable, and a bit unhinged. And when it comes to how this played out, I feel like I have already seen this "anime". Weak protagonist thrown into the deepest, most deadly part of the world, clawing and struggling their way to the top until they're completely overpowered. If you went to Gransys now, you would have the certified harem overpowered protagonist experience, complete with your own Pawn harem. It checks all boxes. 10/10, might try it one day. Looking forward to DD2!
Really enjoyed this video. Dragons Dogma 2 is coming soon brother!!
Cheers brother ✊️
I've done this some time ago and had a great time. In my case I went for a solo pure Strider character with no vocation changes, did not use items mid-combat and went until True Daimon. A lot of deaths and a lot of fun!
Damn pure strider sounds like pain. Well done dude!
my guy, I saw this stream with like 4 hours, only 8 minutes of footage? naa im messin', always nice to see an upload.
this is how I played bb ever since it came out, hardest dificulty on base level. its rewarding seeing your unit leveling up fighting random dungeon monsters, I have all the units tested different classes the base game with story line became boring. 😂 the most hardest class to level was always the mage but the best in end game it becomes too op. while warrior strength is the easiest to traverse the early dungeon but pretty hard on the end game.
This game is great.
do you know the legend of the chino-afghan madman armed only with two wooden barrels escaped from the demon?
only chads know the legend of chino-afghan softlock
Done the challenge like 4 times once as a sorc,two as a strider and one as a mystic knight. All were hard as hell but strider is best cause you can cheese Death on the bridge by using 10 blast arrows. Hella fun but rage inducing.😭
cursed dragons are easily killable at any level with throwblasts, you can get them from the first safezone after the deer area
If only the bro knew the trailer was 1 month away :c
You summoned DD2's trailer, cheers man!!
Your pain has rewarded us with the trailer of legend. Thank you Arisen.
BBI can turn boys into men. Weaklings into Warriors. Not even most Dark Souls areas have driven me as mad as BBI did.
one of the best games of the last 2 decades. top 10 easy.
That's how I played the game the first time. I made a new character, did a few quests... saw a girl in the pier at night and theeeeeeeen..... 50 hours later I am leaving Bitter Black island as a new man. I didn't know you weren't supposed to play it like that the first time. Lmao
rest easy my friend, we have it now! the second wind to push us!
More challanges like those and i will buy DD.
Well maybe l'll showcase some more then 😏
Throwblasts will be your friend if you ever want to try this challenge. They're kinda OP at low levels
yes, but their are two edge shaped swords, if you do something wrong you are inmeadiatelly death for sure
@@bso1538 yup, learnt that fast when fighting the bishop.
@@The_Rift Hahahahaha true, I always got scary when boshop's curse dragon runs toward you at the very start of the combat... I died several times trying to figure how to deal with the very first attack
that gargoyle is named after the sword you got after getting killed by him.
Name of the songs used in this video?
I added it to the description, it's from Artlist.
I love this challenge I run it atleast once a year as tradition with different classes no pawns (I allow range because why not)
I remember where I did a somewhat similar challenge where I wanted to hit the max level before even talking to the captain.
I traveled to Gran Soren so I can actually fast travel but after that, I went around the world to grind up some levels and equipment before I hit 45 (I did 25 levels of Ranger for Stamina, and 20 warrior for health, then switched to Assassin) and entered BBI, after that I stayed in there till 200 and had the best gear and equipment in game.
Yes I used the cheese with dropping Death over the cliff in the Bloodless Stockade, Sue me.
i remember when i first saw Vageta311 doing this challenge almost 9 years ago now. Nice to see people still doing it.
bro spy tf2 money taunted that dragon to death
"here, go buy yourself a nicer hat!"
i've been binging DD content again non stop since the trailer
I essentially do this on most playthroughs. Except the ranged weapons. That's crazy. Also, using throwblasts in early BBI is essential, since you're a level 1 regular dude.
Ye who learnth of thee barrel trick become god
Devs saw the dedication and put a DD2 trailer in the works
I feel like the no pawns thing actually makes it a little easier because you will know that only you are being aggroed and not some random stray archer/mage randomly changing their target to you and one shotting you lol.
also, you level up much faster
Not only that, but the Pawns sometimes trigger cinematics that can throw off trying to use certain skills that need to be timed to do maximum damage.
If you to the settings in the game you can disable that. It drove me nuts until I had the idea to check. I no longer get those annoying cut scenes.@@KaiKrimson56
Omg what is that music track you have in this video? I love it
It's just a track I found on Artlist called Grisly Brill - Duty Calls.
incredible
I've done 2 BBI challenges, first ever was ranger, as its my most used class, I love the availability of debilitations, and the run was super fun
The second was warrior. That was not as easy. That made me take a 2 month break from the game.
0:34 The pain is now forgotten
well well well
It happened, the trailer is out now.
I love this idea, gonna do it with daggers only.
Okay! But can I do this with Strider with no bow instead? I NEED to be able to roll please 💀
the advantage of assassin is the shield to perfect block, but I think you can always try strider daggers-only lol, might be a bit harder tho
and idk if the autonomy augment is available only for assassin
@@somebird4757 Autonomy is assassin rank 9 augment.
Sure thing, but I think strider might be harder even with the dodge. Not suse if you can find strong enough daggers in bbi.
@@The_Rift I failed miserably haha! It was indeed way harder than I thought. Bardiche daggers weren't enough, wasn't doing any noticeable damage at all... I'll try with Fighter tomorrow when I have some free time. I never play with red vocations so I'll think this will be both difficult and at least something new to try! Can't wait!
@@byeebitch cheers man, have fun on your next run ✊️
dragons dogma 2 brought me here
my man running a glass bone build hahaha
Always thirsty for Dragon's Dogma content.
It's funny cause I end up doing this everytime I start a new save, except with my pawn
Yes, is pretty funny to do that way... but the bad thing, after completing the BBI you are overleveled for the outerworld
@BSO true that's why I pretty much don't go much farther after that except maybe the wyrm hunter quests
If you bring your pawn into bitterblack isle will he re-spawn if he dies. Great video!
"No pawns" :I'm okay with that.
"No range weapons": Well I instantly lose as I only play ranged, if it's an option since I've been gaming so I would probably die in the 1st room.
EDIT: Hold up... from 1 minute onward... how the bloody hell are you running and your stamina was going up???
That's what I was thinking he's hac,Ed the stamina the loser
0:48 This is something i usually do anytime i play. I find it to be the best way to level/ unlock the hybrid vocations.
your pain was worth it
Shoutout to Vageta311, the absolute Goat.
I did this challenge on both PS3 DLC and PS4 Dark Arisen. Well every new game I go to BBI anyways on hardmode for extra EXP and no pawns. I don't have any good weapons and I can't really handle it until I gain RC and purify which is why beating Daimon is necessary.
I did however use Throwblast method. If that's cheating that's fine. That's mainly my weapon and throwing throwblast is sometimes a bit tricky cause you'll never know where it's gonna land without the arch. I even beaten death twice with throw blast method. One during the bridge sequence and the other on the sewer using the waterfall one with only throw blast which gives me to level 100 almostly before even reaching Daimon.
It was much easier on PS3 I believe when I first play it as a DLC. I think they change a bit on PS4 but throwblast has more damage than ever before. You just need to know where the throw arch and the timing to do it and yes, no armor, so everything will one shot you.
I did this before on one my playthroughs before since I wanted it to play like a Souls game. And man levelling to get to 100 was brutal
Lore accurate bitterblack
So you hacked the stamina meter sprint isn't taking from it
We need some version of bitter black isle in dd2. I kinda like the name bitter black world after the unmoored world. BBW for short.
I really miss that sweet Hellfire Armor set and Bitter End sword for my small female warrior 🥲
Good news! Your reason for torturing yourself is now obsolete because we got a trailer for Dragon's Dogma 2! (They're also adding in like furries for some reason which I'm not completely opposed to but it is a bit random)
I thought hard mode is going to be a challenge, well technically yes at first but as I progress through the game it become so easy that I thought I'm playing in normal mode difficulty because of the Gold that I gained from the enemy, but this challenge I think it will definitely make the hard mode a "Hard Mode"
Consider the two different game difficulties like two kind of gameplay... both are good, on hardmode you must be carefull, at normal you must be more conservative of money...
a tip for your next bitterblack visit:
Switch to keyboard and mouse for its animation, using both the mouse and the keyboard is much faster than on controller.
Marvelous Arisen. I must try this but I will use my pawn. I love her. Lol.
1 month after this video the trailer for 2 drops
I really need to start using the conquers thing
I know we have all been there at one point but it is still so weird to me when boxes don't break after the first hit
Shoutout to vageta311 as well, i believe he cooked up this challenge years ago.
If only he would of waited 1 more month his original pain would of been fixed. We finally got a trailer for dragons dogma 2!!
I have subscribed, I have liked, and this is my comment. :Bonus comment: I really like your name.
This was actually one of my favorite play throughs to watch. Good shyt. #h20q4.
Is this... a challenge? This is how i played the game and it's the best way. The strongest gears are found in BBI and its insanely fun.
My guy summons the dragons dogma trailer 😂😂😂
my dude 😏
What a Boss. GJ 👍
this place was hard in good gear lol your crazy
Mate went full tryhard at the end, haha.
"A man can only take so much punishment before he brings out the periapts"
- Some wise guy
I am playing a hard playthrough on PS3 but my challenge was to not use any magic vocations. I do have Pawns. I have beat the DD game and down in 3rd Stratum in BBI. Think I'm sticking with Assassin. Warrior is a tough one for me but I was able to get past Dark Bishop with Warrior.
What mods are you using? The graphics look much better.
Could have sworn that the final boss had another stage. Maybe that’s the second time you fight him.
The first time through and the second time through differs. Enemies become stronger/change and Daimon gets his awakened form
Very cool
"and keep the change...."
🤣
I remember this challenge. I tried it for a bit. 😅 It was torture. I wasn't very good at the game lmao.
Now it's proved, even a Wooden Box is stronger than an Arisen Level 1 ~ 5 8D
Damn Rift, guess you took a bite from a Warg there, hahaha
hello again I have a interesting question for you ok so I know what its takes to be a great dragon like gigori but what dose it take to be a lesser dragon like drake because I thought the only to become a dragon was to be deafated by seneschal and they only way to do that was to defeat a great dragon. do you become a lesser dragon after being defetad by a great dragon?
I literally do this every playthrough 😭
First time I saw that lich with the dragon I pissed my pants. They don't make games like these anymore 😭
trailers is out :P
If he was a warrior he could never do this run !
Ooook I did this and did it 3xs back to back without knowing this was an official challenge of sorts I just wanted the gear each time I change vocation I save the best for last WARRIOR safe to say I earned my Guts Jr. title if there was one😂😂😂
