After throwing my knife away in Dark Souls 1 and living the high knife in Dark Souls 2, it's now time to try and live our best knife in Dark Souls 3.

How will this go? Well, watch the video to find out!

Shoutout to ‪@TheBacklogs‬ , his DS3 Firebombs only video was a great help with this run!

    I'm honestly impressed that you could beat the Nameless King with throwing knives, I bet Lemon from the Backlogs would be proud, since he couldn't do it with fire bombs only
  • @frogpuffin
    If Lemon has the Firebomb Academy then you definitely should open a Throwing Knife University

    ...why do I have a strong urge to eat Toblerones right now?

    "I don't want to use fog door glitch, I think it's wrong" Me thinking about all the times I've been hit through the fog door...

    Going back to kill the Nameless King was the greatest plot twist of the century
  • @flamingpickle8846
    Everyone is talking about the knife puns but I love how you keep giving Greirat different names
  • @TRUENSS
    I was not expecting a recipe in the middle of my dark souls throwing knife challenge.... a welcome addition
  • @frazzlol
    glad to see you taking a ‘stab’ at this challenge in ds3 too. (:
  • @applesthehero
    imagine being a legendary warrior so ancient time has lost your name, and some pretzel-looking guy in a loincloth just walks up and throws 120 knives at you and your wyvern, ending your legend right there

    Ah, dammit JK... I was hoping you'd forget that the crow quills even existed. But you didn't and then you simply chose not to use them. I mentioned before that I started this same playthrough a year and half ago, but then didn't continue with it because it lost the audience vote for the final video before Elden Ring's release. After that I just never came back to it. But back then, crow quills were my secret weapon to make every single boss in the game viable given that it's an unlimited resource. So I thought about putting it back on my list if you wouldn't be able to defeat both DLC's, so that I could then succeed by using the crow quills. But you did consider them after all and didn't use them intentionally, which makes that idea fall a bit flat... Crapalicious... you're evidently more perceptive than I thought you were... how very disappointing 😞But it's to be expected that doing 3 knife related runs has sharpened your senses. So perhaps you are the sharpest knife in the drawer after all. Well... suppose it's a good thing because the crow quills actually really suck with terrible damage and they have an annoying spread out hitbox and their throwing animation is this awkward leaping animation (and for some reason applying bleed, frozen weapon or poison to the weapon has no actual effect on the quill darts) so using it against the DLC bosses would be a massive pain to begin with. Still, makes me feel a bit sad that my evil plan seems a bit dull now. Could I perhaps get a therapy session from you next time?
  • @sanddagger36
    you should allow yourself to use the crow quills for dlc bosses, it is a dlc weapon after all
  • @jackusmaracus
    That Nameless King victory was massively impressive! Top marks for perseverance.
  • @SirJyrsy
    Love the Xenoblade and Persona songs in the background! Very impressed with your Nameless King kill, that dude took me the longest to kill on my first playthrough and that was with normal gear and weapon. Good job! Impressive tenacity all around really, these kinds of runs are not walks in the park.
  • When I saw the 8 damage on Vordt I thought this was impossible - the run was a dance one razor's edge but in the end, you were a cut above the challenge. Though I still can not believe how blade-end-ly the thicc fog gate stole your win from sister Friede, you deserved that one!
  • @aedragorix
    I just found your channel a few days ago and with the few im able to watch when im not busy I truly appreciate the jokes and the random recipe vids!
  • @LdNidd
    Wow, genuinely impressed that this was possible, especially that insane Nameless King kill. Good job, man! This was a killer video!
  • @GameBuff2305
    Great run, great video! Huge congratulations on the Nameless King victory!! Going in I thought that fight couldn't be done, but you gave me a welcome surprise; you were really a cut above the rest! 🤣🤣
  • @Cha05typhoon
    Great video! Certainly agree with the Crow Quills not counting for this run but really hope to see that run eventually
