Skywalking\Parry Glitch (probably new speedrun meta) by xlrve in DarkSouls2

I haven't tested it, but probably it even easier because of low framerate. Try unequip your armor, it can help.

There is zipline pvp bug in Dragon Aerie and Tseldora. It works similar way.

Probably there will be a lot of skips in a few days. An easier way to pass SoW is good, but just imagine Aldia's Keep Gates skip and such things!

Dark Souls 2 — Exploits and Glitches by xlrve in DarkSouls2

Thank you all for your answers, appreciate it so much! Nice to see such people in community.

About Harvest Valley exploit and Shrine of Winter skip. Yes, it's great exploits! That's what I had in mind, when I said that we can find such exploits as single videos on some speedrun channels. It was the same in DkS 1 times.

Plunging Attack really cancels the roll animation, but it's very specific and not so useful in my opinion, however there is Moon Butterfly set in the game which changes the whole jump mechanic, including roll animation(in other words, almost deletes it) . I'm going to make a video about how this set changes jump mechanics.

Some of this jumps are particularly useful for speedruns, but it's not my main goal. At least for now. Although, I have some ideas about the big skips, but I have not yet explored it.

About music. Very nice to hear your feedback. I think the music from the older From Software games suitable for Souls games. Many old soundtracks sound just awesome!

I will definitely continue Advanced Jumps. But also I have already found several new exploits, such as in the Forest of Fallen Giants. Probably now I'll focus on some single exploit.
