FLAME FOR THE FLAME GODDESS. FUEL FOR THE CHARCOAL THRONE.
Er, I mean, hey look, Dark Souls has a flamethrower. Why didn’t anyone tell me about this?
Fire Surge is one of the weakest pyromancies in Dark Souls. At least, the base damage would suggest that. But is it? And even if it is, can you beat the game with it anyways?
Time to find out if we can beat Dark Souls 1 with only Fire Surge.

It’s also in Elden ring
my only guess is the mod used doesn't just add fire surge to your starting inventory, but rather switches the fireball you started with with the fire surge in painted world, because otherwise, you could, in theory, grab the second fire surge in the painted world and attune both for double the casts, plus the dusk ring for 4x casts while hyper mode might not last the entire length of all 240 casts against artorias, the ones you do get, combined with having the remaining casts all be while you're in RTS status, might just be enough to kill artorias
A Backlogs video? On my birthday! I feel lucky
"fire surge going unoticed over a decade" meanwhile me: regularly use it on pvp as a meme and win somehow
Given how strong spells tend to take longer to cast, Id still find it a challenge at max level. Fire Surge was probably the only spell I ever got in DS, and of course I used a FUCKING FLAMETHROWER. Of course it was op against the 4 kings.
Also, to those who like to be pedantic and say sonce you cant get it in the asylum, you cant beat with that spell. Um, new game+ exists. Yes you can do ANY fucking challenge. I was gonna say beat but some cant be. I would normally agree that no you cant beat DS1 with only fire cause of Quelaag, but since Im gonna have to glitch my way past her cause I like sexy spider ladies, you can.
i have a feeling backlogs wants us to use fire surge on all bosses on a soul lvl 1 character and do a no hit run
I feel like I've watched this whole video before, deja vu
So you know, thank you for making this videos. I use then to sleep to your great humor and pasive-agresive comments. Greetings from Spain without the S 🤟
I discovered you yesterday so this video is a welcome surprise
Lemon I want to thank you for using spirit tracks music everybody sleeps on that beautiful Zelda game and I wish people played it more
what gets me is that u didn't just get another instance of the spell since the casts stack for some reason
With Sen’s skip you can definitely get to fire surge without killing any bosses except asylum demon, and there are a couple of skips for that one two if I remember right.
Now that I’ve finished being pedantic, loved the video so thanks!
Fire Surge is still in Elden Ring too lol
Seeing Trevthedev call-out is nice 🙂
🎉She's MIGHT just be the most humble and heartwarming person to exist❤️❤️
🎉😊❤
Every day with you would be a happy ending. It's about the special mood I get from you.❤️😊😊🎉😊😊🎉
Oh my gosh, Wanted Dead is back? I is certainly a memorable experience, not a perfect game but one with a lot of heart and creativity. Anyways gonna go sing 99 luffeballon
3:47 I heard every single pixel of that "Failure" with perfect clarity. huh, pixel isn't the right word, sample? is it sample? I heard every single sample of that "Failure". Nah, doesn't sound right.
OK but how about that Edris Elba Gold documentary tho?
12:02 sorry sir but Dark Souls 3 Firekeeper is best waifu
So much for getting to that backlog
Live on Fire Bomb Academy!!!
I heard there was a fire surge spell in elden ring
Meaty Jesus would be proud
Oh dear god, lemon what're you doing?
Thanks for taking the time to make this video while doing the work on the one hit.
Do people really make stupid comments like that? I hear You speak about it multiple times. Yes You can beat it, another amazing video, thank You, I hope You had fun making it. All the best to You and Yours ❤
You got a WANTED DEAD SPONSORSHIP??????
Absolutely rad
I don’t know if you will see this lemon but I wanted to say thank you for making the best content I’ve ever seen on this platform and thank you for making my day just that bit better I truly love this channel ❤❤
About the prison cell in the archives, the YouTuber Illusory Wall actually has a recent video about collision boxes and I'm pretty sure it explains that one
Any achievement chasers already knew about fire surge well before the one-shot challenge. The problem is they probably never used it.
Just so you know backlogs I will always be waiting, for you to ran out of ideas on what to do on All of the souls series EXCEPT Elden Ring
and when you do, I'll be waiting, relishing in my victory, as you be forced to make Elden Ring content for me to enjoy
Muhahahaha!!
"not that one, get out of here!"
oh, that reminds me of a silly video i saw once, but can't seen to find again…
it was called something like "worst spells in D&D, or "useless spells in D&D".
the DM kept suggesting lousy spells to a level 1 wizard, who kept saying that he wanted Fireball.
finally he snaps and says, "i REALLY want to be able to cast fireball, even if it's the ONLY spell i EVER learn."
the DM says, ,"ok, you can cast only Fireball."
later the DM says, "i wonder how he's doing?"
EVERYTHING is on fire, and you hear the wizard say, "i cast FIreball AS A CANTRIP."
"oh, SHIT!" the DM exclaims!
in case you don't get it, Cantrips are "level 0" spells that, to put it simply, DON'T USE ANY MANA WHEN CAST!
So I have a story about Dark Souls 1 I was fighting Bed of Chaos and when I killed Bed of Chaos my game crashed restarting the fight so I didn’t know if I could beat Dark Souls or if Bed of Chaos had beaten me I reloaded the save beat Bed of Chaos and game didn’t crash
Fire surge back on the 360 was so good it broke the 4th wall.
Causing the console to overheat and fps fall to single digits.
I love the fact that whenever a new Backlogs video comes out, other challenge runners are there to comment their opinion.
So i dont know if it’s only a me thing. But everything the video starts and he says, “hey it’s Lemon.” I just instinctively respond “hi Lemon.”
thank you youtube for reminding me i joined the second channel members on accident. does this mean i get two degrees?
Love your vids lemon, please keep em coming.
