Frequently Asked Questions
I encourage you to backseat if you know what you’re talking about.
FUME-Specific FAQ
Rules:
A: No quit-out strats, though save-states can be used if the game is put in a state where a quit-out would give no advantage. All Bosses must be defeated. Soul Memory door is fine. Glitches/exploits may generally not be used unless it can only happen in All Fume Knight. The spawn limit of non-boss Fumes is 99 (the max).
Q: What bosses are left?
A: Belfry Gargoyles, Skeleton Lords, Covetous Demon, Mytha the Baneful Queen, Smelter Demon, Old Iron King, Royal Rat Authority, Prowling Magus & Congregation, Duke’s Dear Freja, Giant Lord, Throne Watcher & Defender, Nashandra, Aldia, Fume Knight, Blue Smelter Demon, Burnt Ivory King, Darklurker, Sir Alonne.
Q: Who made the mod?
A: The initial mod maker would like to go unnamed. That person made adjustments to the AI and map placement along with laying the groundwork. Since then, I have taken over creation. @pandamygdala has contributed a substantial amount to the actual replacements, and @Bradguy123 also helped a bit.
In later stages of the mod, Moonlight Ruin helped me greatly with map piece and object creation, and ku8uu assisted with cutscenes. Radai helped me with animation stuff. KingBore and Philiquaz helped a lot with any param / DSMS questions I had.
Q: Why does alluring skull work? Why not use it all the time?
A: We are currently unsure why Alluring Skulls work. Of course, there is always the chance that I made a mistake in the mod, but I have looked into this and found no evidence. The theory that alluring skulls work by /”regions/” (designated areas that can do a bunch of things) relating to multiplayer or multi-boss arenas has been disproven.
The skulls do not appear to work outside of boss arenas, and even in boss arenas are not 100% effective and typically are only helpful in very large arenas (like Lud & Zallen).
Q: Planned build?
A: Maximum DPS with ranged is the goal. Rapier seems to be the best melee weapon. Offensive spells/hexes/miracles/pyromancies are not adequate for the majority of the playthrough, but may be helpful in terms of AOE and damage output or exploits for some bosses.
Q: What about Skeleton Lords or Magus & Congregation or Gargoyles?
A: Likely will be trying to exploit somehow. They may legitimately be impossible. Avoiding them until Nashandra is beaten probably. Suggestions are welcome.
Q: Why did you pick Fume Knight?
A: Because he was the hardest boss for me, and according to some stats the hardest boss in the game. I am aware that he may not be the hardest All X Run, that’s fine. You can see All Burnt Ivory King done by @pandamygdala here: https://www.youtube.com/live/8VCZ6xBLyAI?featureshare
Q: Will you do anymore All X Runs?
A: This may be my final X Run unless there is substantial interest, or All Orphan of Kos becomes runnable.
General FAQ
Q: Are you still making videos???
A: YES. Unfortunately, YouTube is not my full-time occupation (I simply don’t make enough from it), so I try my best to work when I have time. This year, I have been busied by making the Fume Knight mod, moving states, and other things. I expect to have a shorter video out this December, as well as more releases next year as I wrap up the Fume Knight mod creation.
Q: Why do you do this?
A: So you don’t have to.
Q: No, really?
A: I like problem solving and some of the runs are very enjoyable. Also clout.
Q: Will this become a video?
A: Yes. Usually, the video comes out about a year after the stream (each video takes at least 100 hours to make). I am always extremely busy.
Q: Will you do an all insert boss here run on Dark Souls 1, 2, or 3?
A: All Fume Knight will be my final All X Run unless there is substantial interest. I have no plans for Sekiro or Elden Ring, and Bloodborne has too many issues with modding, though when possible, I WILL do All Orphan of Kos.
Q: Do you stream runs that are not challenge runs?
A: Sometimes, usually on Fridays.
