  • UPDATE ON THE BRIGHTBUG GLITCH: It will work whenever your character is wet, that is all. You can get wet by rain, puddles, lakes, those water jars on Iron Keep, equipping Pharros Mask, etcetera. 1. Get wet 2. Use the Brightbug 3. Quit game 4. Load your game file and done It will only disappear when you go into a loading screen (warp, die, etc).

It's amazing to believe that a lot of these are all used in speedruns, usually needing to be executed quickly one after the other.

  • I’ve got another one that ymfah made a video on a while back. Fume knights sword glows slightly for about 25 seconds before he goes to second phase. By using any healing item when he’s in this state, he will do a sword slam attack on you. The slam will stop the sword from glowing, and you can fight for another minute or so before it glows again. You can just repeat this every time his sword starts glowing to skip his second phase all together.

  • Attunment Swap Glitch: Allows you to transfer the uses of one spell to another until unattuned, persists through deaths, loading screens, and bonfire sits - PC only - Equip the spell you want the spells on, preferably unequip all other spells inittially - Open the bonfire and open the travel menu, select a bonfire, majula works fine - As you start to travel, use your mouse to left click, right click, and then select a small pop up menu that says 'back' - immediately head over to the attune spells menu - wait for the travel menu to get darker and darker, right before you travel the screen will flash again with color. - during this short window, left click on the spell you want to take the uses away from, such as a basic soul arrow - do it to early and you'll just have the basic spell equipped, do it too late and you'll have the original spell equipped with no changes - Just right you'll have the intended spell with a transferred amount of uses. When you finally get the timing down, it's super consistent and you should get it AT MOST two tries.

    • few things - lost on save & exit, lost if spell order changes - preference is fine but unequipping other spells is by no means required *- the window is much bigger than you think, during the load screen, while you still have your cursor you can do the glitch. (around 2-3 seconds)* - since the game thinks you have soul arrow equipped, attuning more slots to soul arrow increases uses of the glitched spell - ^ this also means that the glitched spell will only consume 1 slot (if soul arrow or other) so you can attune more powerful spells even with relatively few slots. - cannot be used on spells you can't cast (consider the spices)

  • I'm not sure if it's a glitch or not, but you can get into the pit area under the bonfire next to where you see the pursuer first. There's a spot that you can run and jump and do a dropping power attack and survive the fall by critically attacking the fire-lizard in the far corner. The cave down there leads you to where the fire-lizard is spitting fireballs at you when trying to get the fire longsword. This can be done even on the base game though it's aggravating trying to get the items down there before dying. There's a total of four fire lizards, I believe, but there are locations you can hide from their attacks to hit them with ranged attacks. I believe it leads to the door on the left when you fight the giant, but I believe it is locked from the other side.

    • it is a great game in itself but I think people don‘t like it in comparison to the first one. It wasn’t directed by Miyazaki and they changed things and mechanics that made Dark Souls Dark Souls. It also canonically doesn‘t belong into the trilogy’s storyline. It’s basically seen as the weakest link in an amazing series cause DS 1 & 3 are just SO good. I agree though, it doesn‘t deserve the hate and is still worth playing

    • Dark Souls 3 is a good game, but it has absolutely no replay value because it only has one viable playstyle: Roll and R1 with fast weapon. Heavy Armor, heavy weapons, bows, miracles, magic - all of that is terrible. It's also a very frustrating game, because the rules of the enemies aren't your rules. The player can't have poise and the player can accidentally hit walls. Enemies however have poise and their attacks go straight through walls. I'm also not a fan of the often-praised level design; While it is more logical than Dark Souls 2's, there are too many bonfires and Fromsoft gave up trying to make good, satisfying shortcuts. The one thing I give Dark Souls 3 credit for, are the bosses. DS3 has the overall best bosses from all three games.

That was from just below the first bonfire inside the tower to an intermediate platform, and then they turned and jumped down to the main floor where you use the Scorching Iron Sceptre. Took less than ten seconds to go from the higher platform to the Foyer level. Not a glitch, I guess, but still cool

  • Keyboard and Mouse glitch here. You can turn a low use spell into a high use one. (Or the reverse...?) Select your spell, then warp anywhere. But then right click the screen, the right spots would be unlocked areas. It should show "back." Select, then go back to the attune spells screen. And highlight another spell. Just as soon as the loading screen happens, if you confirm your change, you'll spawn with your spell usages swapped, but you'll have, for example, 30 forbidden suns by 'swapping' it with Soul Arrow. It'll last up until you quit the game. So it unfortunately won't work with the brightbug glitch since that requires quitting out, and for this one you must not quit out.
