[DSR] Great Hollow IL 25.13s (nayutaka timing) TKGP 2020-04-30 | I saw nayutaka was doing Great Hollow ILs so I had to do one too.nayutaka's video: youtu.be/kriQv5Kxuec
[DS1] Quelaag Skip 2020 TKGP 2020-01-14 | Faster route for Quelaag Skip in Least Bosses. Trigger the cutscene and FQ instead of quitting out, then follow this route. Should save 30-60 seconds all things considered.Notes:- The current route grabs two souls in the swamp. I ran right past one, but the other would have to be detoured for or found somewhere else, which is what determines exactly how much time this will save.- The very left edge of the buttress is safe from death planes which is why I dropped there. You can also go around the pillar to the right, jump over the planes, then run back up along the edge, but I find this easier.- Plunging on the left is much safer because you don't risk landing on any props.- Take the corner before the Great Club wide so you can see the ogres.

[DS1] Memerolls are TECHNICALLY*** possible in PTDE TKGP 2019-12-24 | Scratch that: youtu.be/mNJGzo66Fss There is an extremely small equip load window (above 25%, below ~25.00001%) where the chained midrolling phenomenon from Remastered works in the original game. I edited the weight of the dagger in order to test this; it remains to be seen if there are any other valid ranges or if that ratio can even be achieved with unmodified equipment.Either way, I'm mad.SPECIAL THANKS TO KAHMUL SEVENTY EIGHT FOR HIS INSANE THEORY
[DS3] Lightning Storm at the End of the World TKGP 2018-10-24 | Something stupid I semi-accidentally did.
[DSR] Demon Betrayal Remastered in 4:03 (WR) TKGP 2018-09-10 | Plenty of room for improvement, but not too bad all things considered.
[DSR] Yet Another Seal Skip TKGP 2018-08-19 | If you go off the edge such that you slide down immediately instead of getting airborne, you can roll off the slope before you actually land, dodging the fall damage but still saving your position on the floor below. Punching, backstepping, rolling, and even pivoting can all work, but the angles and distances required are pretty finnicky.Probably not practical. Sloperolling discovered by Mousecopp.
[DS2] The Metamorphosis TKGP 2018-08-12 | I always wanted to be a featureless gray expanse when I grew up.
[DS1] Dukewarp is unironically faster than Duke Skip* TKGP 2018-08-07 | I would feel bad about this if I thought there was even the slightest chance anyone would try to do it in a run.*Timed from the lever on the elevator to the lever before the courtyard it saves about 10 seconds IGT, but:A. You can't eat souls on the elevator, andB. The jump is absolutely horrific and you only get one chance.I consider it a moral victory regardless.
[DSR] Arena Exit Wrong Warp TKGP 2018-07-10 | Discovered by half-blindkiller: youtube.com/channel/UCKtsFZkKlTYWrDOWPISZW7g1. Rest at Firelink Altar2. Warp to Oolacile Township3. Start an arena match, and make sure you stay sitting at the bonfire while you get summoned4. Leave or complete the match5. Die or use a boneObviously can't be used in speedruns, but might be nice for casual memes if you don't feel like itemswapping or FQing.

[DS1] Damage Number Cancelling TKGP 2018-06-29 | If you hit an enemy, wait exactly 69 frames (nice xd) and hit them again, the second hit won't display a damage number or the yellow health bar effect.Utterly pointless and known about already, but I don't think anyone tested the frame count before, so here you are.
[DSR] Inside Out Souls TKGP 2018-06-27 | I want to get off my own wild ride.nexusmods.com/darksoulsremastered/mods/72Hope you enjoyed that absolutely legendary transition.
[DSR] Memeroll Seal Skip TKGP 2018-06-16 | Fast, maybe? The first roll is a bit precise, you need to do it as late as possible so your iframes don't run out before the first platform.

[DS1] Secret Stones in Tomb of the Giants TKGP 2018-05-23 | Gee whiz. There are some other mystery rocks lying around, but you can get to these without cheats, which is Kind Of Neat.
[DS1] Darkmoon Seance Ring: The Hard Way TKGP 2018-05-21 | Starting from the ladder after the two crystal lizards. Seems kind of ridiculous, but it's easier than it looks and might actually save time in 100%The quitout is just to reset poopwalk.
[DS1] Not Quite Giant Cell Key Skip TKGP 2018-05-21 | Anticlimactic!Breaking news: there's a really obnoxious jump you can do from the end to get on top of the cell, but you still can't get in.
[DS1] Gwyn Poopwalk Cheese TKGP 2018-05-20 | The left side has better visibility, but since he staggers backwards a couple times you have to reaim. On the right side, you're more in line with him so you shouldn't need to. You also don't risk getting trapped inside the arena even after a quit out, which can happen on the left.Also the safe area is hella small, so be careful.
[DS1] Sif Poopwalk Cheese TKGP 2018-05-20 | This one is pretty dubious. Entering to the right (but not all the way to the right) seems to give you the best chance of actually being able to see anything without triggering him. You can damage him with either bows or crossbows, but feather arrows or sniper bolts are highly recommended due to the long distance.You could already do something similar by just shooting through a hole in the wall, but the closer range here improves damage significantly.
[DS1] Gargoyles Poopwalk Cheese TKGP 2018-05-20 | This one is pretty useless even by my standards: you only get the first gargoyle for free; the second one sees you just fine. However, if you kill them both and then enter the arena afterwards you get an empty health bar stuck on screen, which is sort of neat.
[DS1] Centipede Demon Poopwalk Cheese TKGP 2018-05-19 | First trigger Centipede's cutscene, then quit out. Poopwalk into the fight and VERY carefully tap forwards until you gain camera control. The area between the fog gate and his AI trigger is extremely small, so arrows will just hit the gate behind you, and spells don't travel far enough. However, crossbows with sniper bolts and the hawk ring can do decent enough damage.
[DS1] Priscilla Poopwalk Cheese TKGP 2018-05-19 | Because poopwalk halves the distance you travel in the fog gate animation, you can barely enter the arena and avoid hitting Priscilla's AI trigger, then kill her with arrows or spells at your leisure.

[DS1] Transition Clip for Gaping Dragon TKGP 2018-04-28 | Saves 15 seconds compared to the inbounds route. On the other hand you have to do Gaping fog gate skip, which to me is a fate worse than death, but your mileage may vary.Quit out when you're about halfway between the two metal bars on the ground. If you're too early you'll end up back on the stairs and can just try again. If you're too late and respawn inside the room, run back to around halfway up the stairs before retrying.Apologies to whoever was trying to invade me. :^)
[DS1] Great Hollow IL in 54.28 seconds TKGP 2018-04-27 | Sloppy as heck, but that second plunge is a real son of a gun.IL rules I just made up:- Attempts must start after dying and respawning or boning back- Timing is RTA, starts on the first frame the game begins to fade in, and ends on the first frame the bonfire menu is visible- You may be any level- You may equip any weapons- You may not equip any armor or rings- You may not use any items or spells
[DS1] Drinking a Titanite Slab TKGP 2018-04-23 | Titanite juice, don't drink this!1. Pick up a new consumable (in this case, throwing knives)2. Flex it into your hair slot3. This allows you to equip it twice4. Use it, which fails to properly clear the second slot5. Pick up any other good with a quantity (in this case, a titanite slab)6. Itemswap to consume it for literally no reason other than making a stupid meme video
[DS1] Curing Poison With a Crossbow TKGP 2018-04-23 | Thank you HotPocketRemix for discovering this nonsense.I won't pretend to understand exactly why this works, but apparently crossbows have a couple unused moves in their moveset which hit the user with a projectile that cures status ailments. Additionally, arrows and bolts are technically weapons with a single move, and it just so happens to correspond to the unused moves that crossbows have.Thus, if you flex a crossbow into an ammo slot (which wasn't known to be possible until recently), then fire it out of a bow or another crossbow, you'll immediately be cured of bleed, poison, toxic, and curse buildup.Cheaper than a divine blessing, I guess?
[DS1] Dukewarp Tutorial TKGP 2018-03-02 | Note: when I say "very slightly to the right", I really do mean VERY slightly. Walk as straight into the wall as you possibly can while still inching towards the edge, or you'll just fall off the top before you can do anything.

[DS1] Duke Skip Upwarp (Consistent Setup) TKGP 2017-12-27 | Make sure you face the pillar straight on; if you're at an angle you may get stuck at the top. Try not to take too long to start the gesture or you'll get hit by the arrow; it won't mess up the warp, but taking damage is no fun.Realistically this strat isn't too useful since you could be doing things on the elevator, but at least it looks cool.
[DS1] Duke Skip Upwarp Comparison TKGP 2017-12-22 | Normal: 13.8s | Upwarp: 12.3s | Difference: 1.5sIf you can find a faster or more consistent setup this could be alright, but at the moment I don't think it's worth it for whooping second and a half.For some reason Shadowplay didn't capture the audio but I didn't notice until now and I don't feel like re-recording a literal meme. :^)
