Can You Beat Bloodborne With Left Hand Weapons Only?

question what do i have in common with michelangelo leonardo da vinci julius caesar and um iggy azalea well aside of the fact that we all suck at souls games we're also all filthy left-handers so it's only fitting that any hunter i create in bloodborne should also be equally as inept as me when attempting anything other than basic tasks with their right hand i guess therefore the question i'm really asking is this [Music] can you beat bloodborne with left-hand weapons only first up i just want to clarify this isn't a gun only run with that said the rules i set myself simple i can't do any damage with my right hand so that means no right hand weapons no viscerals and no consumables that do damage like molotov's things like cocktails or bone marrow ash are fine and i'm allowing myself oil urns even though they technically do do a tiny bit of damage when thrown i would be doing all main game and dlc bosses as well as a full playthrough of the chalices to reach and kill the final boss this would be a legit run no glitches or crazy skips just one little lefty with a watering can and a dream a hunter's dream [Music] hmm where to start here face blue name unfunny class nope i have none wolf spicy hotel trivago i wasn't in the mood to give this fellow a prostate exam so i headed straight for the ladder hit the lamp went to the dream grabbed a small pew pew stick as my start a weapon and magicked myself back to yharnam ready for a busy afternoon of activities such as speak to bilbo go for a healthy jog grab the torch hello pick up at least eight shards as well as any cold blood get your autumn winter swag say hi to the bird lady buy a new ipod and open everything up with that done i returned to the dream to level priority number one was getting my pistol to plus two since i wouldn't be able to access anything else i needed until after daddy guacamole i then spent the rest of my echoes on buying vials and bullets and raising my blood tinge by a couple of points in a vain effort to not make my damage suck so much for this next part you're ideally gonna need full vials and bullets so i return to yharnam for some farming the torch may do a whopping eight damage per hit at the moment but against lone enemies it works fine and saved me plenty of bullets you can also use this spot on the bridge to make the angry londoners ignore you and then reap the rewards afterwards repeat as required with my pockets full it was time to kick things into gear by bullying uncle gazpacho into an early grave good thing we're in a graveyard then the gun doesn't exactly smash any damage records but if you get the parry and follow up with a second shot while he's stunned you'll get extra damage he gains damage resistance in phase 2 so make sure you've got enough files and bullets left to finish him off in a non-sexual way preferably you might be the father but i'm the daddy i can say that one with that nasty business out of the way the game opened up for me and it was time to head back to my old pal dildo friendship with gun ended now watering cannon is my best friend although the gun would still come in handy in a few specific instances the flame sprayer would be doing the heavy lifting for much of this run so let's talk about how this baby works exactly the sprayer scales with arcane starting off at a d for the unupgraded version up to a b for the plus 10. so for the rest of this run i would be focusing on levelling vitality and arcane only because if you level endurance you are weak and your bloodline is weak the flame spreader slowly consumes bullets as you keep l2 held down and anytime you stop pressing l2 and start again that automatically consumes a new bullet so this really isn't ideal for fighting small mobile bosses as you'll see later bone marrow ash increases all damage done by the next bullet consumed by 114 percent and oil irons work with it as they do with all fire damage oh and you can't rally back health or build up a beast meter with it got it good i headed down to old ghana next and ran past pretty much everything on the way had a mexican standoff with a wolf fired up the lamp i'm still here blasted a wandering madness for shards grab the hunter's torch which is both an upgrade on my existing torch and a good way to keep the beasts at bay and work my way up to jorah the easy strat here is to lock on and start shooting him with your gun as soon as you reach the top of the ladder four to five shots should do it i said what i said thank you bloodborne take two see works every time i reloaded for the badge grabbed the ritual blood and all the shards in the area opened everything up and returned to the dream to upgrade my flame sprayer as much as possible there are more shards in cathedral ward if you need them it depends on how lucky you've been with enemy drops [Music] after some more torchy pokey and yarnum for viles it was time to get rid of cleric beast now that i had my new toy this wasn't particularly tricky just stay locked on and spray to your heart's content tanking is a perfectly viable strat here the trade-off and vials used to heal up is worth it for the continued damage and there are more bullets on the bridge if you need them cleric beast died i returned to the dream to wash off the stench of shame and burnt fur spent my pennies on oil irons far more vials and bullets and traveled back to old urnham to casually no hit bsb with the help of a cocktail or two no sweat [Music] okay i have a lot of stuff to cover off in this next section so one sec let me just read through my playthrough notes [Music] let's see uh hunter's workshop yep get twin shards down to old workshop open up the ward rescue ariana back to the dream sell everything pop echoes level up torch and guns clear out the dog area before hemwick get bone marrow ash look you know what i can't be bothered to write a script for that part that'll do i worked my way through hemwick picking up more bone marrow ash and all the shards available no need to waste bullets the torch is effective here for reasons that my beautiful assistant will now explain to you this absolute cutie pie kindly showed me a new shortcut back to the lamp i cleared out the ladies by the boss room rolled through the barrels to spawn in the wandering madness for shards triggered the boss fight and hunters marked out after getting my flame sprayer to plus six it was time to catch up with russell crowe so i walked down to the tomb of odin to watch the fireworks unfold i didn't want to risk aggroing eileen with the flame sprayer here so i let her do all the donkey work while i occasionally tried to feel useful by drawing henrik's attention with a cheeky torch prod or two gg eileen you couldn't have done it without me i spent all of my insight on buying henrik's gear and various other trinkets returned to hemwick and prepared to burn the witch pro tip the witches always start out in the same positions with the first one always to the left of the fog door zero insight means no extra adds so bone marrow ash your [ __ ] up and let rip you're more likely to die from stopping your toe than you are here let's be honest two dead witches later and i was ready to take on a proper boss again [Music] it's you the hero of gabacha most large beast bosses are weak to fire and amelia is no different so with oil irons and bone marrow ash you can make quick work of her as with cleric beast there are instances where tanking is a viable trade-off and focusing on certain body parts to get the stagger will also guarantee you some extra damage one frazzled furry later i spied on the boys grabbed the eye of the blood drunk hunter ran through the first section of the dlc to swipe a few free cold ones and it was time to hit the trees 420 blazer etc etc after grabbing all the shards on the way to the first shortcut it was time to detour to the clinic to grab the cainhurst summons and the plus three communion room why so blue yosefka and then i was off to castle payne hurts to tickle some gargoyle bellies with my torch and strip the place clean of chunks and other good items the old man can definitely wait until later though i had what i came for so i went back to the woods to open up the roots of the shadows and pick up the clockwise metamorphosis and anti-clockwise metamorphosis runes because imagine just calling them something simple like health and stamina rooms i returned to the dream to set up and i was ready for the first actually challenging part of the run remember how i said earlier that the flame sprayer isn't ideal against small mobile bosses this really isn't ideal for fighting small mobile bosses well guess what it's definitely not ideal against three of them at once my usual strats for this fight just weren't gonna work particularly since i tend to fight the shadows unlocked and the flame sprayer is much easier to use when locked on and the fact that they move around and attack so much means you won't be able to apply sustained pressure with the flame sprayer translation you're gonna need a hell of a lot of blood bullets so try not to get hit too much yeah simple very simple like look how simple it is after a couple more successful practice runs it was time to take inspiration from prod and first try these [ __ ] so here you go [Music] [Music] the shadows had been sent back to the shadow realm and i had sprinted through birgenworth to open up the shortcut so it was time to reward myself with a delicious gobbler of common among you all know this one as long as you have the thumaru chalice from bsb under online just search for this glyph walk forward from the lamp look left and wait for the gods to shower you with money i know i said that this rung can be done without exploits but on the other hand i had a video to make so i took the quick option but if that sits wrong with you or you don't have psn then you can just farm the students in the lower lecture hall i also want to stress that the echoes i got from the com dungeon were purely for buying vials bullets ash and urns i only intended to level using echoes obtained in the game through normal means so don't at me or if you do at least say something nice as well like you know compliment the color of my eyes or something yuri the choir hunter who prowls birgenworth can be a real pain in the call beyonds but here's a little trick i discovered a while back i grow her by standing on the first step of the staircase and as soon as she starts moving walk underneath the bottom of the staircase and wait yuri will walk all the way down and all the way back up again and diagro with her back to you you're now free to go about your business undisturbed willem was looking very pale a classic sign of hypothermia so i warmed him up as much as i could and dropped in to see my favorite living cosmic flower pot hey there sweetie let me just get rid of your babies so we can get some alone time i torched them all not just the spider men but the spider women and spider children too prepped with ash and urns and roasted rom like a comedy special after that it was just a case of keeping distance to bait out the meteors and then run hit and run for the dubs we'll meet again i'm sure [Music] after some well-deserved levels i was off to yahooga for the usual fun times there's not much of importance to do here except making sure you grab all the chunks in the area as well as the upper ward key so do that i guess the moon had a nasty case of diarrhea i got some bell ladies all fired up and then it was time to turn the one reborn into the uh you know what [ __ ] it i can't think of a funny name imaginary prizes to the best suggestion in the comments look just spray him until he staggers um well keep going repeat until lightly toasted you know what's better than one lecture hall two lecture halls oh and a dead spider i ran through the nightmare frontier ignoring everything and readying myself for amy lock onto the head gun with ash to get a fast stun and then switch to the flame sprayer always go for the head and if she does the jump attack just stand still and enjoy some free damage more running because it was cardio day after all and blue elixir really helps for this area particularly getting through this section without getting splattered across the elevator mikalash could wait for now not for any particular reason he's just a [ __ ] so i headed to the opera cathedral ward instead for some spoopy time [Music] the flame sprayer works wonders in this area since both werewolves and brain suckers are pretty squishy against fire so i cleared it with no issues making sure to grab three important items the eye watcher badge the make contact gesture and most importantly best hat the eye watcher badge lets you buy the ros marinus which is surprisingly not a tasty herb and for 60 000 echoes it better [ __ ] not be essentially this is an arcane version of the flame sprayer with better scaling and would be very useful for bosses resistant to fire in particular hey you guys want to hear a joke celestial emissary yep that's it that's the joke now laugh in my usual style of doing things in a totally random order i then went back to yahoo to embarrass paul and roast him like a comedy no wait i've done that joke already okay i then went back to yahar gall to embarrass paul and roast him like piper perry on a couch shut up buddy oh god not this [ __ ] again mikalash will always run away from you so if he runs straight up the stairs at the start of the fight follow to the top and turn right and as soon as you see him go down the next set of stairs double back run round and intercept him to make him go straight into the boss room phase one is simple so save your bone marrow ash for now and just sidestep his augers and punish for phase two wait until he's here and then just bone marrow ash your pistol and kill him till he's dead because [ __ ] phase two time to make that brain a fairly safe way of judging this elevator jump consistently is to make sure your camera's level with your character as you go down i chugged some blue elixir to run past the winter lanterns picked up the blood rock opened up murgo's loft collecting all the chunks on the way and treated myself to a plus 10 flame sprayer and a plus nine rosmarinus [Music] okay let's get the main game out of the way so we can move on to the juicy stuff ebby wanted to dance so he danced which was going fine until she stumbled and stepped on my toes i figured the music was wrong so i asked the dj to put on something more lively and we went again [Music] [Applause] [Music] martin next and this was a pretty scrappy fight i'll be honest this is the one boss in this game that i can never get an ice cream fight on but a windsor win i celebrated by crowning myself king of the world joined the vilebloods which is some kind of weird sex cult or something whatever i'm down and went on a murder spree foseph are up first and um you sound like you're busy should i just come back later maybe next it was ariana's turn i don't know what you mean love looks just like every other baby to me i have a confession to make i am not proud of this but sometimes man's hubris can be his downfall you see it's like this i died to the wet nurse i know i'm ashamed instead of doing what i always do during the nightmare phase and run like my life depends on it because you know it does i got cocky and tasted the sharp end of a blade jesus christ on a skateboard who the [ __ ] dies to wetness i am never playing this game again 12 seconds later shut up stupid baby god damn it [Music] back at the dream i had a minor heart attack when i realized i'd left the oven on but this is fine time for the dolk and yes that's how you pronounce it i won't hear another word otherwise as i'd already opened up part of the nightmare it was a pretty simple task to breeze past everything else up to mudfig i thought this was going to take me a couple of tries to strategise um it didn't look [Music] [Music] first try easy claps ludwig was so impressed by the strength of the ass beating i'd handed to him but he rewarded me with his most prized possession thanks dude i'll treasure this forever i followed master villain's advice and put some eyes inside opened up everything in the research hall got the stairs turnt and learned a valuable life lesson always try and be as happy as this guy is when he's shooting his gun obligatory joke about how it was in fact i who was the living failure all along and then oh yeah these dudes shh [Music] get sprayed [ __ ] i was nervous about the hot date i had coming up next so i had to prepare i needed to bring protection so first i went back to the nightmare frontier to pick up another clockwise metamorphosis rune where patches gave me a demonstration of how time can be convoluted by somehow still being [ __ ] alive next i delved into the first boomerang story chalice where i fought a number of exciting and stimulating bosses like uh this guy and uh those blokes i only really wanted the root chalice for now but i figured i'd be back anyway so i went and sprayed the big hot dog for fleas first just to get it out of the way now once again i know i said no exploits but if you've watched any of my other videos you'll know i like to break my own rules and anyway this is totally optional i'm just being a [ __ ] with the root chalice you can put in this glyph to find the top tier clockwise metamorphosis room in the layer one pre-boss bonus area oh god that was a mouthful enjoy the welcoming committee [Music] oh i love this fight i love it so much that i deliberately choked at the end because i can think of worse things than being choked by maria if you know what i mean after being released from horny jail i decided to stop sucking and it went a little bit like this [Music] so i raised up the dial the window gods bowed down before my superiority and it was time for some fried fish huh then i prepared myself to fight a shark just kidding and work my way through to the fishing hut where simon was simply dying to give me all this [ __ ] cheers mate i'll uh see you around then yeah cool [ __ ] bradel all my homies hate brador i cleared out the remainder of the hamlet making sure to pick up the blood rock and then took a trip back to the dream to prep myself and shower off the stink of rotting fish guts and shark poop because i had to look my best for well you know who's next [Music] there's a common theme with most orphan fights i end up doing on these runs and that's vial management and this one is no different orphan is so fast and skittish that there aren't many opportunities to apply sustained pressure with the flame sprayer so i was chewing through blood bullets like a rat with a cable even though my ros marinus was out damaging the flame sprayer on paper i wasn't fighting off and on paper and he has higher arcane resistance than fire and i'd also be able to use the oil irons anyway my god nobody wants to listen to this [ __ ] you're all here to watch me kill a boss in time to some badass music and i'd hate to disappoint [Music] i fully expected spicy lozer to be just as fun and challenging no i didn't i fully expected him to be hot and annoying the reality however is that he's such a big slow target you have some pretty big windows to apply continuous damage to him and even though this was scrappy as hell because i'd only gotten out of bed like five minutes before fighting him it was still pretty damn easy just spray him till it hurts in phases one and two while trying not to get pounded in the not fun way and then dance around in his small arm armpit in phase three for the win [Music] dlc i mean doc completed it mate so is this where the real bloodborne begins [Music] well i suppose that means it's time for the chalices then i'll be clearing all the story chalice content actually required in order to reach the queen without using any save edited glyphs for skips or materials but i won't be doing any unnecessary ones like is or you know the other one nobody does i'm not gonna point out where everything is except for the really important stuff all i'll say is if you're doing this then explore and loot everything to make sure you have enough ritual materials and kill as much as possible because the echo drops in the later chalices are pretty damn juicy with all that said sit back drink some baileys from a shoe and enjoy [Music] hold up i just want to show you a little something you might not know these nightmare fuel feather dusters of doom kind of annoying right but did you know they have a secondary lock-on point on their head that you can pretty much insta-kill them from anyway back to your regularly scheduled programming [Music] in order to set up the defiled chalice you need ritual blood for bastard of lorann and arcane haze i could break down redundant materials with the haze extractor for the arcane haze but the bastard of loran would require a trip to ayling lauren which is nice because well it's not the defiled chalice to set up the airling loran chalice you need cold blood flower buds and ritual blood four you can either get the flower buds from the nightmare frontier or just buy them from the inside bath i cleared out layer one with surgical precision took down another beast possessed soul fairly easily worked my way through layer two forgot which boss was next and went in unprepared only for bsb to [ __ ] me with no lube six out of ten suzy didn't even have the decency to give me a reach around i returned with antidotes equipped and dodged my way around her until the whole place smelled of seared steak delicious i ventured on to layer 3 where the bell ladies in particular were starting to become a real pain in the ass because they can't be killed quickly looted everything and ignored the boss and headed back to the dream because by now i had four bastards of loran in my possession and i couldn't put off the inevitable any longer well i mean i probably could i'm just a masochist [Music] welcome to fun town everything in here is becoming pretty hard to take down fast now so play the patient game or you'll die a lot here keeper of the edge lords up first and this wasn't hugely tricky taking hits in here probably means death anyway so vial management shouldn't really be an issue if you stay alive which i failed to do the first time however i was filled with determination so i came back and patiently picked my windows while dodging more than old dodger mcdodge the dodgiest guy in dodge town nobody cares about the support act i was here for the headliners so it was down to layer 2 to fight guy fieri's shirt and this is where things got tricky my normal strat against the watchdog would be to dodge and punish his flanks with a serrated weapon to get the staggers which can make fairly easy work of this fight as long as you know all his tells sadly as i'm not legally allowed within 50 feet of a right-hand weapon for my own safety i had to rely on the ros marinas which at first glance seemed to do piss-poor damage this was starting to get annoying thanks then i figured it out the trick here is that during certain attacks he's more vulnerable and will take more damage from the ros marinas so you just have to bait those ones out and apply bug spray after a couple more failed attempts that i will fully put down to my own greediness this happened [Music] [Music] another first try sweet i know plenty of people will throw stuff angrily at their screen when i say this but chalice amy is a pleasant walk for a park on a summer's day while beautiful naked people throw money at you compared to the watchdog at least i wasn't sure which weapon to try but then again amy is weak to fire bolt arcane blood tinge bees snow bad fashion gummy bears a light breeze and being smacked in the head so anything works really just bait out the slams lock onto the head and go wild punishing any staggers this would have been an easy first try if amy hadn't squashed me like a bug when i had the nerve to move one thousandth of a centimeter after a jump second time's the charm though and i was done in this [ __ ] surely things can only get better from here though oh hell no [Music] one main chalice left but i would need more materials again to make the fumaru ihil chalice you need ritual blood 5 arcane haze living string and 4 red jellies the ritual blood and arcane haze shouldn't be an issue by now if you've been looting and you can grab the living string from the brain of mensis hope you don't have any plans for the next week though out out the main sticking point here is red jelly you need four of them and there are only two available in the main game here's the fastest way to get the other two i returned to ailing lauren to face off against the final boss of the chalice fizzy barry this fight is pretty straightforward as long as you remember one simple thing i tell you i will not forget our adage next i made the lower lorand chalice ran through layer one and killed the silver beast which is a boss in name only then i grabbed one red jelly from this chest on layer two at this stage you have two choices if you have psn then just input this glyph this isn't a save edited chalice this is just the glyph for the actual loyal around story chalice but remaking the dungeon in this way saves on ritual materials if you're not online then you can just remake the chalice again the normal way repeat the steps above to get another red jelly and we're done here so it was finally time to delve into thumaru hill and end this chalice hell wait a minute this isn't jelly at all [Music] what do this thing this guy and these dudes have in common none of them are the worst boss fight frommsoft have ever made because and hear me out here this one is not only is this guy an annoying prick to fight at the best of times but whoever decided to put him in a narrow room full of pillars that constantly break your line of sight and lock on and also thought it would be fine to let the descendant completely ignore the aforementioned pillars in order to demolish you from beyond the shadows deserves to be kicked down a hole by patches seriously [ __ ] this fight despite the descendant being weak to arcane the ros marina still does less damage than the average sneeze and this combined with the fact his sheer relentlessness means you'll only ever have the tiniest windows to attack and will absolutely race through bullets makes this an absolute [ __ ] show i experimented with various strats none of them were particularly good if i told you i died 23 times to this jumping ass face then i'd be lying it was actually 24 and holy [ __ ] i have no idea how i actually beat him in the end so sorry can't give you a strap never again layer 2 was a welcome relief headless bsb is another example of a big slow beast boss that's practically a walking fire lighter and taking him down was just a matter of facing the right direction and pressing the left trigger let's face it we all know who the real boss of this fight is and so it came to pass that after much blood fire and magic spray i had finally reached the end boss of the chalices the thummerian queen which of course would be easy because she's not a hard boss right right of course she is how utterly stupid of me to expect otherwise 1. she has a [ __ ] ton of health 2. her crying baby mechanic makes persistent attacking unviable [Music] although she isn't resistant to either arcane or fire you'd never [ __ ] know it even with oil irons and ash the damage i was doing was absolute trash and on the attempts where i did make it to the later stages of the fight i was running out of vials well before the end i therefore came to a decision [ __ ] the flame sprayer [ __ ] the ros marinus i would unleash the hidden power of the mighty hunter's torch no no seriously one poke with the torch at 70 arcane does 161 damage and as long as i picked my window sensibly i could get in two jabs at a time for three to two damage which isn't the worst here's the strats then in phase one just stay away and avoid her blood attacks and as soon as she stops the attack run in hit twice and back off immediately if you're stood near the queen when the second baby cry ends you'll get grabbed so always listen for the crying once the clones spawn torch them and switch back to mammy after a while she'll take a break from clone spawning and that's when you can go ham with the sprayer and ash switching back to the torch once the clones return i'd love to show you the full fight but it was 23 minutes long so here's the highlights neatly bundled up into one musical montage of joy [Music] [Music] [Music] wow that was annoying good thing i got this utterly useless petrified fetus for my troubles though my long journey was finally coming to a close almost 30 hours later but before i went to put an old man back into his wheelchair i had some final business to attend to first i tried writing anime tiddies and shining coins on the beach but i ran out of coins and it was illegible anyway at least i could say i tried so you know that's one thing off the bucket list then i went to have some fun [Applause] [ __ ] with my stress relieved i returned to the dream where german tried to offer me the coward's way out but despite the fact i actually am a massive coward i still took offense to this and sprayed him into next week for his arrogance rude this made the moon fairy horny so she tried to give me a kiss good thing i hadn't brushed my teeth well probably ever more spraying ensued the moon presence turned into the moon absence and it was over i had beaten bloodborne with left-hand weapons on me i turned myself into a squid morty i'm squid baron [ __ ] i hate that show [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] you
