Hey Lobos! I thought of a weird new challenge run for you to do!! Use a randomizer to pick which SoulsBorne game to play (DS1,DS2,DS3, or BB) and then use a randomizer for the stats and the stat that it picks is the only one you can level up during the run. I think it would be pretty cool to do and if you like it feel free to modifiy as you see fit bc you are the king of challenge runs!!!!!!
considering he beats the games at SL 1 I dont think stats are important anyway. The idea is nice tho, maybe using mugenmonkey to generate a random build (stats and gear) and stick to that (preferrably an awful build lol)
Dylan Jablonski It seems like a very cool idea on paper but not really, as Garl said he can do SL1 runs without much trouble so he could get random stats and then just get divine club and set up rtsr and deal nice damage. If you wanted to randomize everything he could just end with a weapon that he can't use so it would be more of an endurance challenge at it would just take way more time, he has done fist only and laddle on dks2 so it isn't that different of a challenge even, even if he got a catalyst or a staff he has done R2 only runs of those as well, and in case he got BB the run would be most than likely unviable as you can't even equip weapons that you don't meet the stats for, and he has done fist only before which would be the only solution in that case. The only solution kinda would be randomizing stats and then randomizing weapons based on said stats so he got one that he can wield at least 2 handed. It could lead to some funny builds maybe but pretty much it would just end up being either a SL1 build with more stats or a 2-3 damage which would just take a milliom years on each boss but it would be technically the same or a low damage build which again would just make it longer but not challenging per se, a lot of things would have to be checked for it to be a challenge and enjoyable at the same time, but still is an interesting idea.
QuesadillaLover01 But it wouldnt be like a SL1 build bc he can choose what ever class he wants and he has to lvl up the chosen stat. so lets say he gets DS3 and can only lvl faith, he'd obviously make a faith build but the challenging part his he'll be pretty much limited to only one miracle bc he cant get higher attunement. His challenge would lie in making a build he could work with and not how long it would take to kill a boss
I play with an elite controller, I only use one paddle when I play souls games, it's the long j paddle and I use it for the b button. Right ring finger depresses the paddle and I can run and roll while I have a hold of thumbstick allowing me to look around, run and steer at once, a major help, clawing works too but I've developed early onset arthritis in my index fingers.
If someone had asked me to bet on whether or not someone could even ring the first bell in DS with 1hp and 1st I'd have bet them my life savings....this is just ridiculous. I don't know how you do it man.
That moment when Lobos uploads a video exactly 10 hours after you got your wisdom teeth surgery finished. -and no it wasnt 4 years earlier than average what are you talking about- Rip wisdom teeth and praise the goddamn sun :D
Yeah. Recovery is better than expected although it helps that I've been told over and over it'll hurt like a bitch when it's no more than swelling and the occasional minor pain lol.
"puts things in perspective people complain about 30fps when kids are dying of cancer" "I HATE the elite controller! Flippers on the back are the most obnoxious thing I have ever seen!" Oh, Lobos...
Hello comment section! I recently bought Dark Souls 1 it's my 1st SoulsBorne game ever and rn I'm in NG+3 and I want to sak you what should I lvl up now? I have 50 strength 50dexterity 50 vitality and 52endurance. It's a Melee Build I mostly use G.Scythe +15 and Lifehunt Scythe +5 sometimes Claymore +15
What weapon for STR/FTH vesus Dancer? Jeez Lobos, you should know that you just spam Dorhys' Gnawing. You get it from killing the unique preacher (likely Dorhys herself) in Irithyl. I thought you knew all the cheese memes.
The Elite controller is pretty awesome, in my opinion. I don't own one myself, but my friend has one and it took me like 5 seconds to get use to the paddles (which you can remove). I personally think all controllers should have paddle like buttons on the back, as one of the most inferior things about controllers compared to keyboards and mice is the inability to do certain actions while simultaneously looking around. A game like Titanfall 2 shouldn't be played with a controller if you can help it, but if you absolutely have to the Elite controller makes things a lot smoother without resorting to quirkier control schemes.
Really? It has extremely strange rules for where you can stand and where you cannot without falling, it has crystal golems that push you around and the first time you go there, the clams can enter the boss room.
I do not think that the "some kids are happy to be alive" argument is relevant to whether or not the technology that we have easy access to should be doing what it's capable of or not, just because a lot of the market uses weaker systems. I don't think it's fair to restrict the beautiful art that is video games to ensure they get more money, that's just gross and I've never heard any arguments that convince me otherwise. I mean, TH-cam runs at 60 FPS. I can make videos in my own home that run at 60 FPS, and a lot of gigantic AAA titles cannot run at 60 FPS with their millions of dollars in budget. Maybe I take video games too seriously, but I think if they're ever going to be truly viewed as an art form then we need to stop intentionally hindering them, it's like having the fastest runner in the world and then cutting one of their legs off to sell it. You get more money, but we never get to truly see what that runner was capable of. I wanna be clear though, been around for years. Love the challenges, love the commentary and all. The FPS discussion is the only time I ever really disagree with you, at least as far as I can remember.
Its been a year, but let me reply to you with this - does everyone want a masterpiece hanging in their living room, or are most people just happy with some decent looking £10 painting they got from a car boot sale? And in fact, can everyone AFFORD a masterpiece in their living room? Its the same with games - yes, you could raise the price of consoles by another £100-£150 to make sure every game can play at 60fps, you could cut 4-5 (maybe more with bigger games) hours off a games time just to make sure it is a 3 hour long, perfectly optimised experience. But yet again, I ask you- is that what everybody wants? Surely, when most people spend £250 on a console then another £30 on a game, they just want something fun that will last. I mean, just look at the total sales of the DS, having a total of 154 MILLION sales (which is more than the Xbox + XBOX one) combined. Then, look at the total sales of the DS (which includes DS, DS lite, DSI, DSI XL as their hardware didn't change expect for the added camera) and the 3DS (which did have different hardware), bring the sales to a total of 222million sales, which is 18 more million sales than the PS3, PS4 and Xbox one combined. Now, here's the thing. Most DS games across all the DS models run just at or just below 30 fps, yet they sold more than higher end consoles. Heck, the wii sold 20 million more units than any of the modern gen, high end consoles. In fact, so far the switch has sold 19 million copies in 15 months with only 1 holiday season, compared to PS4 selling 20 million copies in 16months with 2 holiday seasons - a lower end console that plays games at a lower FPS is majorly competing with, and maybe even surpassing, a much more powerful console. All in all, this shows that the majority of people aren't looking for "art" when they play games. They are looking for decent entertainment at a reasonable price. In fact, what these figures show is that people are actually looking for decent PORTABLE entertainment at a reasonable price - Yes, I can make a PC more powerful than a console for £450 but hell no am I going to be able to pack that thing up and take it to a friends. And this is the simple reason why consoles are usually weaker than what they could be, or games less optimised. Nobody is going to pay £450 for something the size of an average PC instead of just getting a PC when they could get something much smaller that is guaranteed to play games on for £350 that they can also pick up, put in a bag and take with them to a friends or whatever. P.S : The youtube comparison is a little...weak. There is a HELL of a lot less processing behind a video than a game - in fact, a video is literally just a string of commands telling the screen which colours to output where. Games have to do that dynamically, depending on the input of the user so they have to process inputs. They also have to then dynamically process environments, collisions, lighting etc...so its a really weak comparison.
You act like making games run at 60fps requires a lot, when it doesn't. Consoles much older than than the PS1 and Xbox were running games at 60fps. It was in an attempt for games to become more "cinematic" that fps started dipping since movies usually are much lower fps; even lower than 30. Achieving 60fps in every modern title is neither expensive, nor difficult. The issue is most people are more focused on upscaled textures (which IS more expensive) rather than a smoother experience. My phone can play videos at 60fps. There's no reason nothing else shouldn't be able to either. Especially something dedicated to gaming.
Man Lobo my wife and I are going through tough times. Been couch sleeping. These ds runs help me keep going. Thanks man.
Hope things have worked themselves out and you are doing better
Lol just drink some booze instead
48:30 So THAT happens when you happen to be in the exact same place as the bonfire when it spawns. Was wondering about that for a while.
My favorite thing about Lobos is that he doesn't shove toothpicks under my fingernails
Alastor Rockwell love you
I love what you do Lobos! You've inspired me to do so much more in the souls series and even helped me get into it.
You're an awesome guy Lobos, love watching your videos.

QuesadillaLover01 well then randomize his rings as well.
QuesadillaLover01 But it wouldnt be like a SL1 build bc he can choose what ever class he wants and he has to lvl up the chosen stat. so lets say he gets DS3 and can only lvl faith, he'd obviously make a faith build but the challenging part his he'll be pretty much limited to only one miracle bc he cant get higher attunement. His challenge would lie in making a build he could work with and not how long it would take to kill a boss
This run makes me question why I ever bothered to use melee weapons instead of magic.
Magic makes it all seems so much easier.
Sorcery = easy mode
i know this is 3 years old but TCC + rtsr + power within + crystal soul spear = guranteed 1-2 shot every boss
and if you're feeling even more genocidal replace crystal soul spear with dark bead. OH also bellowing dragoncrest ring also dont forget that.
@@3.0.1.02 what is TCC?
@@jayst tin crystallisation catalyst
Now do it with 0 HP and 0 stamina
It's so awesome to watch. this guy is entertaining!
Oh hey. This video answered my question I asked a few videos ago about Nioh. How convenient! Thanks Lobos

Lobos, you're a cool guy with the higher tier subs. You're the real deal.
If someone had asked me to bet on whether or not someone could even ring the first bell in DS with 1hp and 1st I'd have bet them my life savings....this is just ridiculous. I don't know how you do it man.
Win Condition Gaming Really? I'm pretty sure even I could at least ring the first bell. I agree the run in its entirety is pretty impressive though.
Maybe I'm just ass at these games hahaha

That moment when Lobos uploads a video exactly 10 hours after you got your wisdom teeth surgery finished. -and no it wasnt 4 years earlier than average what are you talking about-
Rip wisdom teeth and praise the goddamn sun :D
Grats
Necrobones Plus I went through the same thing not too long ago, you won't regret getting rid of them, just keep watch on the holes for stitches
Yeah. Recovery is better than expected although it helps that I've been told over and over it'll hurt like a bitch when it's no more than swelling and the occasional minor pain lol.
wisdom teeths? does that mean ur dumb now?
rip my feelins :((
What about a run with an eye patch on one eye or no glasses? And some random pleb build obviously because idk what labos cant do.
which episode does this guy fight orenstein and smough xD
SpriteIsLit 6 i think
at the start of ep5
Lobos plays Runescape? I see the logo on the side
did something happen between lobos and Fieldy?
pastebin.com/s5MmGFfq
RobinAug woah, i did not even know that
+Keem Sama You're spelling "whoa" wrong. I'm telling this because the information could save your life or something.
reNINTENDO wow correcting someone's whoa.
Zekfrom I whoa, right?
BTW - this game is almost impossible to play on mouse and keyboard - the mouse movement is veeeeery sensitive and it's really hard to do anything.
How about turn down mouse sensitivity? Like in the settings. Just a suggestion
I’ve never been able to tell apart 30 and 60 fps
what gpu do you use in yo pc
1 hp is easy it just means be more careful but the 1 stamina is where the challenge part comes in
"puts things in perspective people complain about 30fps when kids are dying of cancer"
"I HATE the elite controller! Flippers on the back are the most obnoxious thing I have ever seen!"
Oh, Lobos...
I just got dark souls do you have any tips for me?
Hello comment section! I recently bought Dark Souls 1 it's my 1st SoulsBorne game ever and rn I'm in NG+3 and I want to sak you what should I lvl up now? I have 50 strength 50dexterity 50 vitality and 52endurance. It's a Melee Build I mostly use G.Scythe +15 and Lifehunt Scythe +5 sometimes Claymore +15
Snake_Twister Another thing you dont have on 50
try attunement, get 3 slot, then int. you may need that extra damage if you want to go all over ng6+
Zebefreo :D I got one slot for power within somewhere in ng+2, I'm guessing you think about magic weapon or something like that?
Yep, also dark magic scales with str and manus catalyst is perfect for those
Not resistance.
W O O
What weapon for STR/FTH vesus Dancer? Jeez Lobos, you should know that you just spam Dorhys' Gnawing. You get it from killing the unique preacher (likely Dorhys herself) in Irithyl. I thought you knew all the cheese memes.
Laaame. I though Seath was way more resistant to sorceries.
any reason this run is coming out in parts? sorry if he explained it
Nick Landsmann it seems pretty popular views wise, so making 15 videos would bet a whole bunch more views and I'm fine with that.
18:18 *master oof button pressed*
May the 4th be with you!
why not 0 stamina?
THANK YOU LOBOS
You could set your MAX health to something reasonable and keep your CURRENT health at one so that you could use RTSR
Joey Silva He doesn't need to cheat to make it easier :^)
Joey Silva every fall would kill him.
He just seems to like RTSR so I was trying to think of a way to make it work
Joey Silva He does, but he likes the challenge as it is. The ability to survive 99% of all falls is pretty neato, too.
Fair point
Who's that chick in the beginning? Never saw her before

This looks so stressful.

Run up to Seath is the best run up to a boss in souls born game imo
I find it annoying
Really? It has extremely strange rules for where you can stand and where you cannot without falling, it has crystal golems that push you around and the first time you go there, the clams can enter the boss room.
"ich fliege" xD its funny if you are from germany :D
or if you can speak german
Mold on bread can kill you, throw out the whole loaf, lobos doesn't need to get sued. Also, stop asking streamers health advice, they aren't doctors.
omg Thumbnail spoilers @@@
Eh whatevs
