Beating Dark Souls 3 using ONLY Dark Souls 2 Equipment

In this video, I beat Dark Souls 3 using only equipment from Dark Souls 2! This includes weapons, armor, rings, spells, and most consumables! To make it a little more challenging, I also am limiting ember usage AND am only allowed to use each weapon 3 times. This means, after beating 3 bosses with a weapon, I can't use it for any more bosses. So I'd better choose carefully! This might be too light to really be called a "challenge", so maybe it's more of a themed playthrough or weapon showcase? Regardless, I still face many challenges in this run and had so much fun! Feel free to suggest improvements and ideas for future videos!
The allergies strike again...hopefully you can still hear my voice. Something went wrong with the music fade-out near the end, I don't know what was going on there, apparently my audio mixing is still a work in progress...

    Welcome... Ashen... Speak... Desire... - DS3 Firekeeper
  • @JKLeeds
    Ah turning Dark Souls 3 into Best Souls 2! Very good!
  • @andreasfranke439
    If you think about it, both the Estus Shard and the Undead Bone Shard were both introduced in Dark Souls 2. I always forget that in Dark Souls 1, we had to kindle Bonfires and use Firekeeper Souls.

    You can actually get Creighton's armour set as well as his Axe. Once you kill him, his set will be on a corpse on the bridge near where you help Sirris fight him.
  • @SSnowfall
    While not exactly a challenge run, these videos are very creative. More than the usual challenge run content, and for a channel just starting it's incredibly high quality! Looking forward to the future, another fantastic channel to join the ranks
  • @SPIKYBOI69420
    Fun fact: you don't actually have to beat the cathedral to enter the catacombs, the doll is only so you can pass the light wall on the boreal valley bridge Edit: you said you couldn't fight watchers before sage, when in reality you can kill both wolnir and the boss in the "secret" area
  • I'm glad I'm not the only one who struggled to beat Bubonic Erdtree Avatar.

    16:06 Toxic? It was amazing! To make a cloud, run into it and disappear, i would say quiet cool.
  • @ksad96
    Hey, glad you popped up on my home page, this was fun to watch! Seeing you shrug off the "rule breaking" so you can just have fun instead of backing up saves and being strict about no embers is a good thing to keep these runs far more fun and silly rather than back breakingly difficult. Good stuff!
  • @BlueMareen
    I love these vids! It's such a great change of pace from the usual Souls content I see. A veritable breathe of fresh air. Much appreciated Ms. Loyce
  • @youtubemixup756
    I actually wanted to do this in my most recent run but ended up getting distracted by the artor spear.
  • @AabluedragonAH
    Themed playthroughs, challenge runs, I love em all. Keep up the good work!
  • @WatermelonCat941
    Doing this challenge with the Cinders mod installed seems like it would be even more fun, since there are so many added weapons and armor pieces from DS2 included
  • @UpliftThrone76
    This is an incredibly creative run, and incredibly new to me. Great content, and I love the rules you used for it! Amazing quality, and keep up the great work!
  • @xsxoxo
    Nice! I like these type of "different" Challenge runs. It's refreshing and I find them more interesting 😁 And your narrative with funny jokes and chill vibe was very enjoyable😊
  • @Korinomi
    The creativity in your challenges continues to blow me away great work as always
  • @jugomebu
    Gosh this was fun to watch! That's so much for all the effort it would have been to stitch this all together ❤
  • @jessechamper3484
    These themed playthroughs are really refreshing and a lot of fun. A great way to breathe new life into the ds games. Fine work.
  • @MarshalDTeachh
    It's always so refreshing to see new soulsborne content from you Ms. Loyce. Love the challenge runs you do and the chill tone of your commentary.
  • @jameswilcox511
    This run was a lot of fun! And reminded me that I should play DS3 again now that I've finally gone through DS2.
