"Babe wake up, SunlightBlade just posted a new video"

My 4 yr old daughter saw the walking mausoleum and without missing a beat “yeah, we KNOW that one” complete with eye roll.

I agree that it would be nice to have more options for altering armor.

The Warriors of the Jar and Fia's Companions have to be one of my favourite features. I just summoned the 3rd Warrior, on my PS5 playthrough and it ended up being MY character, from my PS4 playthrough. I was soundly defeated, in shock and I have never been more proud or accepting of a death in a game, like this.

The masoleums are asleep a certain time of the night (right before sunrise), and during this window the curse marks can be hit and broken without waking them

Small note, I think great jar warriors with no weapon might be more common than you think. A long well known method of besting this challenge is to start the fight, and bait the npcs off the cliff while standing on the nearby branch, and therefore has no reason to actually have a weapon equipped, and is better off minmaxing on the equippable shield at the time!

This is legit the first time I've seen a "10 things you didn't know about a FromSoft game" video and it was actually 10 things I really didn't know. Well done bro. Subscribed.

love the dead angling highlight bit. you can use the omnidirectional unlocked swing to track by locking on toward the end of the charge animation. so if you strong hit away from someone but lock on right before it swings, you'll turn to hit

I hope in the future From patches in more functionality to the sentry torch. Being able to use it to reveal hidden walls, players, and invisible weapons would be really cool, if admittedly very situational.

That set looks fantastic with the royal purple cape it's a shame that it was patched

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about the manual attack aiming issue.

Really hope that the directional input for colossals is fixed. It's been bothering me since release that I can't manually aim while locked on despite having activated the option immediately on my first character.

They are Crayfish. I grew up around the little guys catching them. I've been to Red Lobster so I can confirm a miriad of differences/distinctions. Edit: Also Crayfish are creek, swamp etc creatures and lobsters are ocean creatures.

One thing I've personally discovered regarding the great jar knights, is that if I save-quit it makes the red summons the exact same every time, and I think they might be the default summons because in every playthrough where I've done this, it's always been the exact same summons in the exact same signs. I would say it's helpful for getting the great jar's arsenal super early, but the mage is really aggressive with their magic glintblade usage, and their carian phalanx can potentially one shot. The guy with the rapier has a buckler, and will parry you, and WILL one-shot you. I'm on Xbox, so I don't know if this assumed oversight is on other platforms. Edit: Thanks to DWN-024 Shadow Man for clarifying that they are the offline summons. I'm curious as to why I encounter them on a save-quit since I always play online, maybe it fails to roll them upon loading the area if you don't rest at a grace or die, though there's no way to be sure. I guess in that case it would just roll the offline reds by default, though I'm still curious to know what's breaking behind the scenes to cause them to fail to roll the summons in the first place.

I'm usually more of a red tabbard guy myself, but the fact that the purple cape is being kept from us is a tragedy. Heh...

I have been playing this game since launch and i don't think i have NEVER open or break that illusory wall at minute 6:59. Also i had no clue you could do that with the torch lol.. i did learn a couple of things from this video, thanks!

10:30 - Maybe the nobles are putting some stuffing in their loincloths to appear more well endowed. You can never know with these weird aristocrats ;)

Champion chest plate is my favorite chest plate and when i got it I immediately wore it without the cape after i killed the NPC who wears it so when I altered it while wearing it I immediately got the purple cape I didn’t know it was bug :(

About Walking Mausoleums, Troll's Roar/Starcaller Cry (1st part) should do the job as well.

I found it interesting that the beast champion cape and navy hood are actually very similar to Godfrey’s cape. Navy blue with a silver detail

8:04 as far as I am concerned, the main difference is that crayfish inhibit fresh water. Crayfish however are slightly better able to crawl over land for thst reason, as they are more likely to have to move over water at some point. Because of that I am reasonably sure these are supposed to represent crayfish. The only lobster argument is that their shears are uneven size, which tends to mostly be a thing in lobsters.

If some folk struggle against those Knight Jar builds (Seeing how much players min-max and use over the top builds) Its much easier to do them offline. Because theyre only exactly 3 of the same NPCs, a Mage, a Dex parry bait, and a Strength shield hugger. Theyre not hard at all compared to what the community has.

The purple cape glitch was really easy to do, and man I wish they kept it that color. We already have enough blue capes. The purple version looks lovely and travel worn.

I thought there was maybe a lore reason why the jarburg road wasn't there anymore. Maybe this was an ancient map and the jarburg prefer to be out of sight now because of poachers. Alas that wasn't it.

I do not pay anywhere near enough attention to the map 🤣 I had no idea they'd fixed that bit of "illusionary road" by Jarbug haha! Incredible video as always SunlightBlade ❤

I've been rewatching all your videos as of lately so it's nice seeing something new.

I love how like 4 months ago people were saying they were at the end of their "things you missed" lists, and every freaking week they keep finding more. That's not a sarcastic love, I actually love it.

Only non boss enemy I truly can't stand are the runebears... Always a pain in the ass to fight. I don't mind the lobsters but that weakness is good to know.

I already knew all of these except for the old aristocrat shoes changing the loincloth size. Guess this game has really been eviscerated all the way through, huh? I'll miss that sense of wonder in discovering things for a while :,)

I don't know if I'm the only one thinking this. But I think the changes to the map for Jarburg is a bad one. Before you would go here and see that the map is lying to you and you would search another way. It's was a great thing because it show you that the map is an ancient one and has not been updated which made you wonder if they were other area like that where the map isn't up to date and would you explore to find these. It was a great thing for immersion. (sorry if my idea are messy, not a a native english speaker)

man I used to watch all your dark souls videos way back when. I figured a lot of the dark soul youtubers died off but seeing you make pretty much the same content as before is awesome!

I didn’t know about the illusory wall shown at 7:00 before now; cheers for the secret! :D

Sentry Torch - Claims to reveal illusions. Only works on one thing. Mogh's Shackle - Claims to only work on one thing. Reveals illusions.

love it your content...

I feel bad for the person who had to fight my character as the Great Jar's warrior. I had a strong madness, faith/ dex build, 60 vigor, heavy armor with Vyke's Warspear +10 / Brass shield. And my off hands had Bloodhounds step, and Reduvia +10 I'm sure they had a blast 🤘

With the Aristocrats shoes first time I saw that was watching Bushys Elden Ring challenges, he wears them a lot.

thanks for the info, I got the purple cape once and had no idea how it happened

For the mausoleums, Mohg spear ash of war, and Radahn ash of war also can do the trick with their aoe attacks

For lore reasons, I think the map frags should never have been edited. You're scrawling them down by copying or shadowing from old stone tablets, it stands to reason that we see a different layout since our Tarnished is on a journey far in the future from when, say, the Roundtable Hold was in an actively used fort. The Grace is having us move in and out of different timelines and dimensions, it makes sense that maps are inaccurate

Another post from Sunlight Blade to make my day better!

Oh man talk about pleasant surprise. I found myself wishing you’d post a new video, not that you’re obligated to lol. Glad to see you putting one up! I clicked pretty quick when I saw haha

Great video as always, cheers 🎶✌

There a new Wormface in Mt. gelmir right before you fight the Ulcerated Tree Spirit. It drops a larval tear for some reason. It wasn't there at launch

bro i know you made this video a while ago but i cant get over the music at 0:20 is so familiar and kind of nostalgic and i cant figure out where its from

Popping the mannequin balloons gives you runes. Most may know this already but I found out 3 days ago so there may be a chance others have missed it

Project Orochi is pretty expensive for being so unknown, yet I really like their designs and bought the Warden hoodie a couple years ago :)

Love the idea of expanding the alterations

8:50 that's really cool I never knew that!

I wanna point out that the tailoring system has 3 slots for each piece of armor but only one currently has an option in it. To me this implies more options were intended but either cut or just not completed.

I haven't played a souls like game in months I've just been bored Im normally a heavy pvper but Ive been going to the gym and I don't have time to play I love watching these videos to get a hit of nostalgia

The 3 jar knights are fun because out of the 3, there were 4 rivers of blood equipped when I fought them. That's right. One was duel wielding rivers of blood.

So there is a very fun interaction with one of the fire spells called Fire's Deadly Sin. If you cast Fire's Deadly Sin, and then you use Black Flame Blade, Bloodflame Blade, or the poison mist weapon art, Fire's Deadly Sin gains the properties of those spells/ash of war. So with Bloodflame blade, you can proc bleeding simply by being near the enemy player. Combo this with the Lightning Ram Ash of Way to catch up to players, and become a nightmarish rolling fireball that stunlocks your opponent with Lightning Ram, dealing constant damage with a Fire's Deadly Sin that's building bleed proc. New favorite stupid PvP build.

6:25 took me a while to realize you have to walk all the war from atlas stairs down into the frenzied flame village

Storm wall definitely needs a buff where the projectile is sent straight back to the person that fired/threw it, and let it deal damage. Similarly for Thop's barrier for spells. Currently they're just so sad, and makes you wonder why you'd ever use them over Carian retaliation of golden parry.

9:26 duuude you did me dirty there

I think it would be cool if there was a way to upgrade armor in a way that you can customize it to be gold or black. Maybe if you get a type of limited loot and use it in a quest to be able to change the type of metal it’s made out of.

Omg i remember doing the great jar and i kept getting a guy with rivers of blood and moonveil and pre nerf sword of night and flame

While I was doing a frenzy run I only used the inescapable frenzy incantation while fighter the great jar champions so I put a build with only inescapable frenzy in the pool

The outfit alteration needs Malenias hair to be removeable and have your own hair hang out the back as an option. While looking cool originally, why cant we remove Malenias scalped hair off the helmet?

I will always cherish any videos this man posts he made my childhood 10 times better

Screw that purple cape, I had the glitch happen with the Carian Knight set where it's blue bits turned black. It looked so good. I miss it :(

So when I and my friend used the deathbed dress pre patched in the 2nd run throughout most of the game, we basically played with handicaps? What. The. F*ck.

I think that you and your “you didnt know” videos were my first encounter with youtube comments about DarkSouls, and here we are all those years later, wild right?

Okay but a hoodie with the opening shot of Irithyll from DS3, right after Wulnir, would be *amazing*

3:17 just to clarify here, that's the penetrator from Demon's Souls, great video btw, I really hope they add more options for the armor sets

A transmog system would be awesome. Being able to wear your favorite armor but keep stats from another....please! Oh and a random generator where it randomizes item placement in the game. Would love that to make it fresh

That north east part near the frenzied village I just was trying to bring my friends there and forgot you can’t go from that way.

I loves the dress bug. Made me think enemies were just going "is that a dress I smell..." dumb little giggles lol

literally everything you said, i didn`t know, except for the great jar part, great vid :D

Torrent trivialises the lobsters as well.

It was your short and sweet outro that got me

I saw that updated the map for jar burg and was like 'Damn finally!"

9:33 you can also tell they're real when all 3 of them are wearing radahn's armor and using moonveil

I wonder if the shackles would work on the walking masueoleums the same way they work on illusory walls/floors

MORE MORE! I SUBSCRIBED! I LOVE YOUR CONTENT!

I knew the great jar was from other players because when I finally completed it one of the fights was vs a person who had 1 spell (Set themself on fire) and one shield (Tree sentinel shield). There used to be a glitch where you could spam the tree sentinel ash of war when on fire but the ai wasnt smart enough to realise that. But I thank that person for the free win anyway :)

Manual attack aim works for any asset that was reused from dark souls 3

Love the Risk background music 🎶 🎵

My strategy for the giant crayfish is to get on Torrent and run up against their left side just behind their legs, you'll get stuck there and be pushed along when they try to turn to face you so you can freely attack them while they can't attack you. Only their jumps are any danger but they hardly ever seem to do them when they're trying to turn towards you

Holy shit, i think the Jar Duelist you faced with the nox armor & moonveil was my second character 😂 exact armor pieces & hairstyle, + i kept law of regression on to look for hidden stuff but could only use it when I had Godricks great rune active 🤣

I heard somewhere that the uploaded jar knights are indeed player builds but that the game actually uploads them when you get embraced by the snug hug bug Fia.

I really hope the add the ability to alter slight things about some armors not to much to mess with the artists original creative feel of it but like color of trims or capes to give it a little more flair.

To say the map is misleading in some places might not be true in all cases as it actually be tied to older visions for the game

I remember getting the purple cape not knowing it was a glitch while i was waiting for some invasions, remember just being confused about it

8:06 confirmed they’re crayfish. Lobsters are predominantly saltwater dwelling and have differently shaped claws, more rounded and thickened pincers compared to the crayfishes narrower and longer pincers.

The Jar Village path, I thought it was lore thing. We had an older map. The Jar had been getting hunted so as a protection, they destroyed the path to their village where the children could grow up safe.

I personally liked when the Map and the World didn't match up. As you're finding existing maps of the regions, which might have been drawn before some of the changes have happened, like the collapsed road to Jarsburg.

I noticed the great jar fights were players when I died a few times on my RL1 playthrough. Seeing a different set of 3 each time with every set having either RoB, Moonveil or both, and usually BHS too felt just like invading lol. I just went offline and killed the normal npcs, much easier.

I'm at work so I'll watch this later but I'll go ahead and drop a like

I didn’t know that armor wasn’t usually like that I did that just messing around when I first wore it and changed it to purple without even noticing

Maybe the early detection of enemies when you wear the Deathbed set is Fromsoft saying: Drip comes at a price.

I remember sweating when fighting the knights of the great jar with nothing but my Royal Remnants armor (no helm because there was a lot of effort put on her face) and a curved greatsword if you ever see someone like that its probably gonna be a easy fight

It's finally happened, I've watched a "10 Things You Didn't Know" video about ER and didn't see anything I didn't already know about!

9:26 I think you parried me there lol

RIP Lyndell shortcut I really loved walking through that area backwards

2:47 I honestly hope we can change the color of armors and put different capes on armor

Fun fact; the spell infinite darkness will reveal, or rather, dispell, illusory walls. I think it may or may not even work on the mimics veil. I'd have to test it

I remember playing that game 👌

when he smacked the dragonfly after killing the lobster....idk why but that was hilarious

Th cases of the Great Jar champions appearing with useless builds incapable of dealing damage is possible due to a number of cheese strats you can do that result in the champions falling off the nearby cliffs to their deaths.
