CBD, I've been waiting for this video for a long time :D I really enjoyed watching you play Dark Souls 2 on Twitch. ❤️ In the last few months you've only played Dark Souls 3. I haven't played it yet, but I'm always lurking. :)
It's possible, yes, but very inconsistent. I stuck to my rules where I did not use the bow for direct damage to an enemy (you can see that I accidentally damaged something in the Crypt with the bow, so I homeward boned out to reset the area). The issue with the timestamp you provided is that those two enemies would agro at the same time and you would not be able to fight them one at a time.
grats on your run... but that TW + TD was like watching paint dry. Try not going in a big circle the entire time so you can separate them (otherwise you have them grouped at a bad distance the entire time)... or go in a tighter circle to keep them on top of one another (to get them both to attack simultaneously for easy punish) whichever you like better. You can't blame RNG for kiting in such a way that leaves you no opening. Also, you have plenty of time to throw up a buff here and there even using your big circle strat. ...i know you were probably ultra cautious so you didn't lose your run... but 30 mins is yikes.
That simply isn't true. If you've actually fought the fight with this sword and have tried to consistently buff/punish them, you would see that the advice you gave is not consistent at all. If you bait out one attack from them, that doesn't mean that they won't have followup attacks. Even if you bait out all of the followups from them at the same time somehow, then there is no guarantee that they won't stagger their attacks to make dodging both of them impossible. I may not have gone for every single potential punish, but I wasn't playing overly safe either. There were a lot of RNG elements to the fight that that prolonged the length of it. The only major error I made was not killing the second one in time when they were reviving the other.
@@itzCBD How did I know you were going to go full-on saltcake over this comment? Even though I don't upload ds2 vids... or even play the game still... I do have thousand of hours in ds2. I know what I'm talking about. You can watch a few tw + td vids here on youtube if you don't want to take my word for it. try a sl1 video.
@@robertjohnson6225 If you thought I was salty about the comment, you are mistaken. Also, if you are referring to singular kills of the boss and not full No Hit runs, then you've proved my point. It is easy to grind out RNG for singular kills, but you don't have that luxury for hitless runs. Show me another melee-only hitless run that does what you proposed, and then I will concede. If you can't fine one, then you'll realize why it isn't consistent to do what you said to do.
Here we go... full-on denial now. Out of control. Also that's not how the burden of proof works. If you have a claim... you are the one who needs to substantiate. If you claim that every other video in existence of tw + td is just one attempt of many with good rng, show me one single segment no hit run where someone else takes upwards of 30 minutes to kill the boss.
@@robertjohnson6225 I'm not sure why you are being very toxic, and I don't know why you are mistaken about burden of proof. If what you are claiming is that it is consistent to do the strats that you proposed, then there should be a melee-only No Hit run out there that does what you proposed to do. If you are only basing your suggestion on kills that have very low reset times, then those are by nature not going to be as consistent. Also, if people were to get better RNG/have better damage/have more range than I do, then by nature they will have faster Throne Duo fights. Your claim is that it would be just as consistent to do what you proposed. All I'm asking you to do is to prove it.
Holy cow, he did it, he did it again! GG dude
Why hello new person to watch. I shall see where this takes me.
where did it take you?

Damn this guy good at the game
council of cows.
congrats!
is a run like this(or melee only) possible without ever using a bow 1:57:26 or yearn sorcery?

Legend
actually fucking based
good job.
Isn't fall damage a hit?
Environmental and self-inflicted damage is allowed.
oh ok, thanks!
Cats 😮😮😮 oh no just No

TW&D took far too long.
Great run otherwise.
