Thanks for sharing your actual irl strategy for collecting throwing knives. A lot of runners just say that something presumably will take ages to get through, and then smash cut to it being finished

@SRFriso94 11 месяцев назад

I'm amazed that you didn't give in and dupe the throwing knives earlier, which would have been totally fair, if you ask me. Luckily, Elden Ring should be a lot easier, kukris actually do pretty good damage, they scale, and they cause bleed. It's one of the easiest ways I've found to fight Lansseax on all bosses runs.

@Ak4ntor 11 месяцев назад

I think i would have quit this run 15 times over just from the starting area. I cant believe how much dedication you have for all of this. This vid deserves every view it gets and likely so much more for all the suffering that you went through for those damn knifes :v

@dariuspenner2528 11 месяцев назад

With stuff like that knife farm I think it’s completely reasonable to just dupe or cheat in max knives. I don’t think anyone wants you to farm for weeks and weeks on end for the sake of authenticity. Just proving that getting the knives legit is possible is enough.

@psivampire13 11 месяцев назад

If it was me, I would skip any farming and just cheat stuff in, or ask other people to help. After all, it is possible to get 99 throwing knives by farming, so it is possible, even if you don’t do the farming yourself.

@TimedRevolver 11 месяцев назад

Mandatory actions should never count against challenge runs. The game forced your hand into using something other than throwing knives.

@LowProfile0247 11 месяцев назад

I feel like just the challenge itself is hard enough, so farming souls which is just an easily repeated tedious task could have been replaced with duping, modding, etc.

@DavidHermosillaInglés 11 месяцев назад

Well, correct me if I`m wrong but I think you can farm those stealth knives in a relatively easy manner. Kill those ninja guys that drop the daggers by luring them to the fire downstairs and make them commit suicide, you can actually grab the items they drop. I think I used that trick to farm some white herbs when I played the game. Although it was in the original demon souls not the remake so idk. Btw, congrats this is an amazing video.

@JKLeeds 11 месяцев назад

Yeah it was more the time it would take, it's a bit of a run to even get to them and luring them down to that flaming ball is inconsistent at best. Farming 99 would have taken a really long time that to be honest I was not prepared to put into this given how long it had taken already. Glad you liked the video 🙂

@765craven4 11 месяцев назад

As someone who has done a consumable only run of DS2 I honestly can't imagine limiting myself to only Throwing Knives in any game where they're worse than they are in DS2. The animation speed combined with the low damage would be infuriating to deal with and I simply don't have the patience for something like that. Hats off to you for enduring challenge runs like this.

I swear From Software has some kind of anti-farming built into their games. While looking at peoples drop rates for Rune Arcs in ER dropped by rats there was a similar observation done, the first few drop according to the loot table and then the chances quickly fell of a cliff for some reason.

@morjin4859 10 месяцев назад

I find that knives are far more effective when simply held and swung, would recommend this tactic for anyone doing this run. Dunno why Fromsoft balanced it this way, but using a knife like a standard melee weapon has proper scaling and relies on the durability system, must be an oversight
