I'm savescumming as I plot a route for SL1 Illusory Conqueror legit.
I probably won't bother with the legit run unless they remaster/remake the game, but I'm surprised at how much damage I can do and have been enjoying it more than I thought.

No death / No bonfire run was pretty hard. Also probably my favorite.
In terms of underrated weapons, basically any powerstance build is super fun. Also, great hammers. The build variety in this game is spectacular.

How? That looks way harder and slower than melee.

i started playing all souls games with spread out attributes. good balance of str, dex, wis, and int mostly instead of sticking to just str or just dex or just a magic user. it opens up a lot of combinations and strategies. youre not as limited as pure builds. the game is a bit more difficult but overall a ton more fun

The first run I did was the hardest because I didn't have an understanding of the changes made from DS1 yet. And I was playing with the PC durability bug, meaning (I felt like) I needed to spend carry weight to hold more weapons.
It was probably the most fun one too since multiplayer involved a lot of fucking around with other people that also hadn't learned the levels yet. Replays of that entry always felt like a slog to me.

i didnt mind it, i hadnt leveled ADP but i could still run past everything
But if its getting in the way of your fun, maybe try killing most enemies on the way until they stop spawning. may as well bring summons to help with dozen or so killing sessions

going for both of those illusory rings probably
but the most memorable and enjoyable one was doing a fist/caestus only naked company of champions run, it was fun to fist everything to death.

In 2? I didn't do many challenge runs, even though the devs actually put a bunch officially into the game. I guess fists-only, mostly because farming for the punch ring was kind of aids which ruined most of the fun of that run.
In DaS, I did a shitload of challenge runs, like an autistic amount. Most challenging was probably a "Parrying Daggers only" run, because that weapon deals such absurdly shit damage, that enemies like Kalameet and Manus were 20 minute fights (in this same game where you can one-shot like 80% of bosses).
SL1 is baby tier, SL1 without Pyromancy is still baby tier because the club is OP, somehow those daggers were much tougher.

>best boss arena
>spoil it all with that run back
It's an amazing boss if you one-and-done it, but yeah if you ever struggle or go in underlevelled, it's fucking awful.

I tried a semi-blind sl1 run earlier this year. Was actually quite fun coming up with strategies like for example two handing a shield to be able to 100% physical block attacks and have enemies ricochet and fall to their death like the heide tower knights. All that "overcoming the obstacle" goodness. I gave up half way through tho because I'm just not build that way. It gets really tiresome later on and you die from a skeletons fart.
