YouTuber beats Dark Souls 2 using nothing but poop

by

Dark Souls 2 is already known as a very challenging game, filled with incredibly difficult bosses and demanding combat. But one player recently took things to another level by completing the entire game using only in-game poop as a weapon!

Challenging games often attract players who love a good test of skill, like speedrunners. People find creative ways to play – some use unusual controllers like musical instruments, while others aim for the fastest completion times. One particularly dedicated player even beat the notoriously difficult game Dark Souls 2 using only hundreds of virtual balls of poop!

YouTuber ymfah documented their complete playthrough of Dark Souls 2, and created a helpful guide along the way. They explained exactly how to collect and use a surprising in-game resource – poop – detailing how much is needed for each fight and even calculating the ‘Minimum Poop to Kill’ (MPTK) for bosses. Amazingly, they finished the entire game using this strategy.

This video is an exciting look at the game, covering everything from collecting poop – and how to do it – to intense boss fights against enemies like the Royal Rat Vanguard and Nashandra.

Okay, so you mostly get by using… well, let’s call it ‘rat treasure’ as your main weapon. But if you really want to beat the game with just that, you’re gonna need to exploit some glitches. I’m talking about things like messing with the bonfire save points to move around the menus, clipping through walls, and even using the… stuff… to lure enemies into opening doors for you. It’s weird, but it works!

Plus, success seems to depend heavily on having the right equipment. Focus on gear that boosts your resistance to poison, helps you maintain your health – you’ll be taking a lot of damage – and quickly restores your stamina, as constantly throwing things will wear you out.

It might sound strange, but hitting enemies with poop causes damage over time, a status effect called Toxic. Once an enemy is Toxic, you just need to keep hitting them while dodging their attacks, and the poop will gradually wear them down.
