I mean, they were overpowered in Dark Souls 1, surely that trend continued, right?
...guys?
The reaper run continues into Dark Souls 2 as we try to beat all the games bosses, while simultaneously eradicating the world of all NPC life. Place your bets now on whether the bosses or the NPCs were harder.
Can you beat Dark Souls 2 with only Scythes? Time to find out.

Out of curiosity, isn't there anything that can be done? Eye surgery has had insane progress in the last 8 years and the surgery itself is at around 3500-4000€, that's quite affordable. Sometimes even just 3000, depending on where you live. Because it would be great if you could regain your sight or improve it? Should be possible these days. Best of luck!!!

@@kylegrefe4399 ah, then you mean energy of impact (force is for modeling process over time, not instant things like impact). okay, that may make sense. actually, being clad in armor gives you more acceleration than drag (braking agains air), so I believe the velocity of impact could be a bit larger when armored. also, if you land on legs, then armor without exosceleton-like frame increases the impact on legs even if velocity the same. or if you land on the side, and your armor is not paddded and is not hard-framed, then the armor chunks from the other side will squish body a bit, possibly making some harm. but, armor is usually padded, which is good for energy dissipation and hard armor distributes impact over the larger region of body, decreasing impact to the each part of region. and some sets of hard-framed armor could work as exosceleton, protecting legs from the weight of armor itself. so... I think, it's maybe easier to break a limb or ribs when land on that limb when you wearing armor with heavy non-linked parts. but I really doubt that armoring increases chance of death due to fall from critical height (which is relevant to the case of dropping to majula pit).

Well that was fun! Another killer vid, Lemon! About getting naked reduces fall damage: I think, total weight of the character somehow (as in "I dunno the exact equation") adds to fall damage taken. Idea is something like jumping down with 40kg backpack and without it. Also about Ivory King DLC - the weapon durability goes down faster there by default, as far as I remember. Something about "freezing cold makes weapons brittle" or whatever

The Ivory King actually taught me to use weapons in my left hand for PVP because of how much it threw people off. It's pretty crazy how well it works. It's a shame Aldia's fight is so simple because he's probably the most interesting NPC in the franchise bar-none. Pretty much the only individual to ever break any of the game's cycles guaranteed other than the DS2 protagonist if they make the special crown.

The damage inflicted by a weapon may be partly proportionate to your stamina and the angle from which the character attacks an enemy. I recently noticed that when going through Sir Alonne's area. A single, two-handed R2 of my club would insta-kill an enemy if my stamina was full or nearly so but would not quite insta-kill the enemy if my stamina was much lower. I noticed that with your character. It would make sense since the character has less determination and energy behind lower stamina attacks. That shows the depth of FromSoft's thinking in its combat design.

As someone who had a reaper only pvp build with sorcery enchants, usually the damage sweet spot is where the point of the reaper hits. For hitting around shields, you have to actually position yourself so the point of the reaper hits around the shield. Too close? Blocked. Too far? Hit the handle so it does no damage. Took me around 100 hours to get this down. But when you get it down, it is honestly one of the best weapons in the game in my honest opinion.

I made a whole grim reaper build in DS2 and learned alot about how the scythes work in the process. They have a 'shaft' hitbox and a 'blade' hitbox, the blade doing buffed damage, and the shaft doing debuffed damage. Its more consistant than it seems, but it depends on the scythe, some of them have much smaller 'blade' hitboxes than others, but its all about getting familiar with your scythe of chocie and learning the proper spacing for its blade to hit more often than its shaft.

I don‘t know why, but I your words about the many faces of death brought tears to my eyes. I put my dog to sleep last week and I can imagine how a figure helped my dog to cross the bridge to heaven. Thanks

Oh god, this brings back memories. I played through ds2 twice, once normal and once new game plus. And on new game plus my weapon became a scythe (the one from the boss soul) and i loved using it.

Such an amazing playthrough! Btw, Chloanne has a moveset and uses a hook as a weapon - your damage was just so high, she didn't even have time to get up.

I know crafting is a thing in Elden Ring so I had an idea. Elden Ring with only crafted items. You may use a bow since you can craft arrows but that might let you use a high powered bow. Instead I say use the bow from your starting class and only that one. Best part: You can probably craft every type of fire bomb and fire bomb adjacent item under the sun.

unfortunately according to what he's said in the past (unless he changed his mind) the only ER run he'll do is Firebombs and it'll be a 100% run iirc.
