    I just realized I never used the Chaos Blade in DS1, if I go Katana I usually just use the Iaito or Uchi. Strange considering self-damage weapons are some of my favourite weapons in these games. Shoutouts to Hiltless and Lost Sinner UGS, my babes.

    By the way all you need to do to beat the titanite demons is stay in the crook of their armpit (the one not holding the weapon), most of their attacks simply can't hit you and the ones that can can be dodged by rolling into the armpit. Also try to stay in front as being behind makes it more likely for the demon to do it's jump attack.

    FaP really shines at higher levels, at 30/30 vit/endurance the ring gives the same effect as if you were 40/40, and it just gets better with more stats investment since it scales with %. FaP if anything is a bit lackluster at low levels, but still has a huge impact early game. Really that ring is crazy good, 10-30 worth of stats depending on lvl for 1 slot

    I did a masochist build using this thing and the Lifehunt Scythe, the scythe applies bleed buildup on yourself as well as the enemies, but on triggering bleed, it applies 50% of the target's max health as damage, that includes yourself of course. Other bleed weapons only do 30% max health as damage.

    6:10 That MF actually does move before you free him or fight Gargoyles. In my one play-through, I wanted some easy firekeeper souls, so I went down into Blight Town (with the master key) and did a suicide run to get the firekeeper soul there. And apparently, that somehow triggered him to leave and kill the firekeeper before any boss besides Taurus was killed.
    I am not 100% sure on this one, but I am relatively certain that ringing the second bell before the first does the same unless you did.

That, or ringing both Bells of Awakening will trigger him killing Anastacia. You have to kill the Gargoyles specifically if you want him to move to Firelink without freeing him yourself.

  • @Dwyer69
    @Dwyer69 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Genuine question because of the FaP hate, what are you possibly considering should go in your ring slots in DS1? What builds are you making that can't appreciate HP, Equip Load, and Stamina? You mentioned this build would probably be better with Chloranthy but like, just put it in your other ring slot you have two. The only reasons I can see to not just have a permanent FaP ring on are a magic weapon build or RTSR. Are you even wearing a second ring in the video too?
    Like I see the FaP buff and I know you had rusted iron for the two areas it matters but it looks like you have Hornet or Hawk equipped later which are both useless under most circumstances for the weapon you're using, and I know it can't be Leo because you killed Ornstein first.
    I'm interested in where you're perceiving value from other rings because FaP is one of the only rings that provides consistent value for nearly any build at any point in a playthrough.

    • @solarpellets
      @solarpellets  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I'm not saying the FaP ring is bad, I'm just saying it's never the best. I didn't wear the chloranthy ring because I didn't want to go get it, the FaP ring was more convenient. I'd argue the silver serpent ring is better for all builds, for instance. And then, in an instance like the four kings where I need the crest on, too, I'd rather take off the less useful ring, and in most cases, that's the FaP ring. The wolf ring is extremely powerful, too, as another example. The FaP ring is not bad, it has its uses, it's just outshined by something a little less convenient in nearly every circumstance.

    I believe you're severely underestimating just how useful FAP thing is. For any build that isn't a glass cannon or some other specific setup, it's always optimal to take it for the % stamina and health increase, and the carry weight is very relevant for achieving poise thresholds with light rolls for something like PVP.
    Though, for PVE minmaxing defense and poise isn't really necessary, so I guess it's fair just to take other stuff. I'd take it over chloranthy any day though

      People underestimate how shit you can be at rolling and get away with it through defense.
