The perfect Christmas present, watching an all-bark no-bite, backstabbing, manipulative, cowardly excuse of a cleric get what he so rightfully deserves.
@@KissyKaede Well, main reason to hate Petrus is what he does to rea, a maiden, as well as her two cleric friends, so nah, can't really make that a synonym ^^
_I will run - he will hunt me in vain; I will hide - he'll be searching; I'll regroup - feign retreat, then pursue, coup de grâce, I will win, but never fight - that's the Art of War!_ - Mushroom child
I was hoping that he'd next have to fight a Painted World of Ariamis hollow that would kick his ass. Also, I'm curious if he'd try to attack the zen hollow chilling in New Londo and R2 himself right over it and off the ledge, like so many players have done.
-trap lady and friends in giant cave and leave them to die -undead Chad finds out, beats your ass, saves lady -internet hates you -sentenced to eternally fight and get your ass kicked by everything in existence. Coulda just been a normal cleric, petrus. Coulda just been.
@@christopherregan1654 That's just the world of Dark Souls being cruel. At least she had a faith-related purpose for awhile. She was a pure soul who didn't deserve any of the bad things that happened to her. Also at least the Chosen Undead was good company for her for awhile.
Petrus: "Leave me alone! Just give me five more seconds of precious life!" Butcher: "If you make me chase you I swear on Gwyn's charcoal nipples I'll make you regret it!"
@@GunRunner106 i hoped that he will kill him, but failed, but i am interested in more things like armored hollow knight, ariamis hollow, or this with torches
This one had me laughing more than I expected, Petrus is so useless he didn't manage to kill a Nechromancer, let alone a mushroom child, good one pal, looking forward to Petrus vs Assylum Demon
It’s really one of my favourite things that the entire Souls community is united against Petrus. Even some ppl still like characters like Lautrec, but Petrus? Everyone hates him and I love it.
Lautrec at least has the possibility of being redeemed. Noticeably he never harmed the Darkmoon Knightess from Anor Londo, meaning he wouldn’t nilly-willy steal every fire keeper soul that he found. There’s even fan theories that he was the Knight who protected the Knightess, basically the Carim honor code like how Egyon watched over his own charge, and may have even stolen a fire keeper soul solely to help relieve the Knightess’s pain since she she needed humanity to avoid suffering.
I mean, Lautrec at least offers to help in 2 boss fights and seems to have a motivation regarding the Firekeeper Soul that points to a more benevolent purpose. He's just a giant asshole about it, which is charming in its own way. Petrus on the other hand is useless, condescending, and a sinister backstabber who even Patches of all people has a problem with.
I thought if nothing else he could at least kill. One. Single. Skeleton. I was wrong. I mean come on man you have a hammer and can heal it shouldn't be hard
Nothing gave me greater satisfaction then the balder knight oneshotting petrus with a riposte Edit: nevermind i just saw andre dropkick him in the face
I mean, even the characters who are technically worse than Petrus are still more respectable. Aldritch may be a monstrous cannibal, but at least he worked at his monstrous cannibalism.
@@Wormerizzator Not sure how that makes it understandable. Also that came way after he started eating people, which he explicitly did because he took pleasure in it, not because it served any kind of greater purpose, this only applies to when he started targeting gwyndolin
@@nathanjora7627 still tho, you can't lie that Aldrich is a far more likeable character than Petrus. Characters like Aldrich, Pontiff, Seath, Smough, Nashandra are the evil mfs Petrus wishes he could be
@@pokimanefartcompilation Heck Even Pinwheel in game as a joke boss fight can be hard when you worked hard for it to be hard while Petrus stays as a literal joke even in Ng+
Aldrich is absolute scum, the difference is that the whole system knew about him and made excuses for him, making him an example of how everyone was blatantly complicit and then hoist by their own petard. Petrus tries to hide his evils yet has the gall to even boast about them when finally discovered. Additionally, I got the impression that the stash of Cracked Orbs belonged to him to boot.
Not sure if the intention of this video was to: a) determine whether or not Petrus is able to defeat *anything* in the game, or b) simply enjoy Petrus getting his ass handed to him by mobs for 13 minutes straight
Against the wheel skeleton: ok, I think he can actually do this- nevermind… Against the necromancer: this should just barely be possible- and he’s dead… Against the mushroom child: ok he can do this, it’ll just take while and it’s not even attacking. And it got so fed up it found a giant sentinel to kill petrus… I have no words…
@Solaire of Astoria he WAS but then he cowarded out of his task, and then if you rescue that girl and kill the seer then he kills her, so no one can t find out he’s a coward. Or he’s a darkwraith. Some people have speculated.
Honestly those ones are actually pretty dangerous, let your guard down around them or treat them like a joke and they'll actually get in some pretty decent damage. They're easy to underestimate and can get in some easy hits, I doubt Petrus could take one out.
@@dalion-asn Really? Torch hollows acted differently for me as I recall, the ones in the lower burg by the dead-end on the far side from the Capra demon liked stunlocking far more than the upper burg swordbois
if i remember correctly, the painting guardians have 300-400 health, which means that his attack doing less than 10% of its healthbar in one hit means his damage is a staggeringly low less than 50 points. yikes
Look I knew Petrus's NPC was weak but the fact that he could barely get a freaking Balder Knight at 40% HP is honestly impressive (not in the good way). EDIT: Him getting cursed by the Basilisk was the most satisfying to me.
3:25 Good god you're a cleric! This is literally the one thing you're supposed to be good at fighting!! EDIT: 6:22 Fucking really, Petrus? Not even a small one?
4:29 I really thought Petrus was going to win against that Balder Knight since his Morning Star was good at staggering the Balder Knight, but sweet mother of God...that riposte damage from the Balder Knight surprised me, lol. I wonder if Petrus would have survived if he was at full health.
@@StarshadowMelody That's how a lot of people feel in Souls pvp. All it takes is one parry (to either make you feel awesome or make you feel dread), lol.
@@darthplagueis13 Definitely. You know what's really painful? Trying to perform a kick to shield break those Balder Knights but accidentally doing an attack instead and they parry you. That's so damn annoying.
Petrus is like the one friend you used to have back in middle school who would talk about a game like an expert and knew everything about it but lacked any skill in it.
It's a glorious Christmas present to watch one of the biggest hypocrites in Lordran, a man who betrayed genuinely kind, caring people who believed he too was good, a man who tried to hide his deeds then bragged when caught and hinted that people should sexually assault Rhea, a man who tries to murder Rhea himself, get his ass kicked. Also, I wonder how all NPCs would do against Curse enemies and the Mushroom trap.
This shows that the only way Haircut is able to kill Reah is cause there's a clear path with no enemies thanks to the elevator and you already clearing out the Knight and Channeler (who can take pot shots). He probably can't even get IN to the undead burg with the group of Hollow Soldiers. Maybe next Petrus Vs The World he can try his hand at them. Also love how Andre went "You're going to Dropkick City bitch".
Rhea also has no combat training or skill whatsoever, no weapons beyond a pitiful thwack from her talisman, no offensive miracles of her own (she only teaches Wrath of the Gods, she doesn't use it), and she believes that she's still predominantly at fault for Vince and Nico's deaths, so she refuses to fight back when attacked by anyone at that point. Petrus has to fight a literally suicidal woman.
That's not fair to actually efficient faith builds/characters (pure faith or melee faith). I think Petrus is basically someone who cheated his way up the ranks in the Way of White and became an "Elite" Cleric but literally only knows two miracles (neither of them can inflict damage). He's a fraud, and don't say that easily because i'm a big fan of faith build npc's in the Souls games (and holy npc's in fantasy games in general).
The mushroom child minding their business until Petrus started to actually hurt them like the bully he is (those sounds, I can’t listen to those sounds…) so they ran off all the way to the church giant to smash Petrus was literally like seeing a kid getting bullied at school only for him to run to his big brother who just goes full Doomslayer mode on the bully
BATTLE REQUEST: King Vendrick (0-1 giant souls) Vs Fume Knight Velstat Mirror knight Throne watcher/defender Lets see how tough the king is. And if his knights fail you could always add the 5 dragonriders we meet throughout the game.
They don't have the programming to prioritize Necromancers, so they'd just be stuck in the first skeleton pit. Even if they happen to clear all the skeletons and agro on the Necromancer (somewhat unlikely) they'll have taken way too much damage to survive the next >15 skeletons/necromancers, plus bonewheels and giant skeletons. ...Oh, and they'd all definitely get dumped by Patches if they somehow made it that far.
NPCs in DS1 can't use estus so they really suck compared to later games. Also if you saw how this trio did against Gwyn there's no way they'd be able to handle an army of skeletons.
@@danghostman2814 Couldn't you delete the necromancers in advance, or alternatively force skeletons not to revive regardless of necromancers being present ?
@@danghostman2814 They'd probably get their asses kicked, but then again, NPCs like Solaire might fail to get through whole areas that we know they're supposed to be capable of clearing out in the story.
10 outta 10 video, has brought me much joy. Petrus is the spiteful kid who gets bullied by everyone and its hilarious here. Couldnt even beat the mushroom child. Weakest enemy in the game, gets most intense music and the victory sound effect when Petrus finally faces a more worthless specimen then himself. Loved it.
Petrus is the DSP of clerics. Truly a cleric of all time. I also love how Andre is a blacksmith, with a hammer but he instead chooses to just throw hands.
This was pure catharsis. Petrus being beaten into the ground by anyone and everyone? Hell yes. I was worried he'd get the Balder Knight, but that parry came in clutch. And Skeleton put up an amazing fight! The killing blow was magnificent! Of course he had to recoup some of his non-existent dignity by lording it over a poor Hollow at the end...
