Dark Souls 3 Boss Beat Using a Saxophone

by

Summary

  • Dr. Doot beat Slave Knight Gael in Dark Souls 3 using a saxophone at soul level 1.
  • Slave Knight Gael is one of the toughest bosses in Dark Souls 3 due to his quick combos and high damage.
  • Players have a history of completing challenges in FromSoftware games using musical instruments.

As a seasoned veteran of the Dark Souls universe, I must admit that Dr. Doot’s recent victory over Slave Knight Gael left me absolutely speechless. Having battled countless hours against this formidable adversary myself, I can attest to the sheer skill and tenacity required to emerge victorious – especially when wielding a digital saxophone!

A dedicated Dark Souls 3 player managed to defeat one of the game’s most difficult fights with nothing more than a saxophone. Streamer Dr. Doot shared their accomplishment early Monday morning, revealing they had finally defeated Slave Knight Gael while using a digital saxophone as their controller, proving once again just how passionate and persistent the Dark Souls 3 and FromSoftware communities alike can be.

First launched in 2016, “Dark Souls 3” continues to exert an impact on the gaming industry, serving as what appears to be the last installment in FromSoftware’s legendary “Dark Souls” series. For many gamers, “Dark Souls 3” was a fresh beginning for the franchise, yet it also offered familiar elements that long-time fans could relate to. One of the standout aspects of “Dark Souls 3” was its boss battles, which were among the most challenging in the entire series. While the final battle in “Dark Souls 3” was demanding, another endgame boss presented a significant challenge for numerous players; however, one player managed to overcome it using nothing but a musical instrument.

Streamer Dr. Doot successfully vanquished Slave Knight Gael during a live gameplay session, an act made even more astonishing by the fact that he was playing using only a digital saxophone as his control device. This feat, in itself, is remarkable. However, what makes it truly exceptional is that Dr. Doot had started at the base level (soul level 1), which means none of their character’s stats were increased during the gameplay. Such challenges are quite prevalent in the ‘Dark Souls’ series and FromSoftware’s entire collection. Yet, using a saxophone as the input source is less frequent in these games.

Dark Souls 3 Streamer Beats Slave Knight Gael with Saxophone

Among the formidable bosses in Dark Souls 3, Slave Knight Gale stands out as one of the most notoriously difficult, introduced through the Ashes of Ariandel DLC expansion. Despite offering numerous challenging encounters, Gale is often cited as one of the game’s toughest foes. His rapid combos and heavy damage make him a formidable adversary, even for players who have boosted their stamina, health, and other attributes. It’s worth noting that conquering FromSoftware bosses or titles with a musical instrument is not unheard of; the diverse build options in Elden Ring pave the way for unique challenge runs.

Just announced by FromSoftware is an upcoming standalone game titled “Elden Ring: Twilight Reign,” set for release next year. This exciting new journey offers a significant focus on multiplayer and cooperative gameplay, where three players can team up to face both fresh and familiar adversaries in a rogue-like setting.
