Demon's Souls SL1 NG+5 PBWT 'Easy Mode' - Part 22 - Nexus: King Allant

Welcome to Demon's Souls, where we finally say goodbye.

There's very little strategy to discuss here. Most of this video is just prepping for NG+6 by topping off inventory and whatnot. So for the most part I'll just mention what each major section is doing for anyone who wants to jump around.

0:55 A suicide to restore PBWT to World 1.

2:00 I use my rings to switch to Second Chance and Death Cloud, just like I started this run out with for 1-1. This can also be done after killing Allant by using Evacuate or a Shard of Archstone, if you want to use a better setup for fighting him.

2:55 I stock up on the items Patches sells (Full Moon Grass).

3:34 I dash through 3-1 to find the Former Royal's Wife and restock my Old Spice.

5:53 After replacing my used Shard of Archstone from Patches, I head to Blige to refill Soul Remains to 99 and the three main arrow types each to 60

6:49 Here, before ending the run, I decide to go through and show my full item inventory, both on my person and in storage. I'll point out that I collected the Soldier's Trophy on this file, and every ring except for the Foe's Ring (because getting CT back to Pure White is an ordeal that requires two full runs of the game). So there really is nothing in the game that can't be done at SL1.

As I go through Stockpile Thomas, you'll notice I also have 2 Moonlightstone, and 2 Darkmoonstone. I didn't use them to finish my Crescent Falchion and Moon Winged Spear to +5, because I wanted to prove this run could be done without difficult farms. I also have a Pure Faintstone from 5-3, and pure Clearstone and Greystone from Ostrava and Scirvir. So I could finish off every weapon-creation trophy in the game with this file, except for Bladestone. I'm probably not willing to farm a Pure Bladestone at SL1, but we'll see.

11:11 After finished the inventory scan, I head to finish the game.

12:18 The true King Allant fight. There are lots of ways I could have handled it. The method that's more in the true spirit of this run is to probably wait for Makoto to put you into Hyper Mode and then use Soul Ray from a distance. But the sad truth of the matter is that you can pretty effortlessly kill him in less time than it takes to activate Hyper Mode, as you'll see here, since I have Makoto equipped the whole time.

12:58 It took me a bit to remember the method. Using the Northern Regalia, from full stamina, it's a simple R1, R1, roll away from him, then wait for his attack and your stamina bar to refill. Rinse and repeat until victory.
