Bullshit, I'm sure there was tampering involved.
I was struggling my ass off this weekend with that boss.
The amount of damage done per strike is too much. how would a level 1 have enough stats to even get a weapon that can do that much damage.
And the black maliketh is way too tame, he should be going into combos:
Ok I was going to do a lol response but changed my mind. You calling BS and I guess there's not much I can say to prove otherwise. You can come over and watch me try again. A few points to note after watching your video:
1) I'm using utchi. Any level can wield that
2) it's cold affinities with inate bleed. So I proc both giving the massive damage.
3) other than one jump attack. I don't use R1 or R2 once. As it's miniscule damage. I only used the ash of war.
4)unsheath is one of the most powerful poise breaking ashes. Poise damage with this ash doesn't change if you lvl 1 or lvl 100
5) I also have a stonebarb cracked tear to increase poise damage and warrior jar shard to increase ash of war damage
6) I maintain pressure so his poise and bleed meter does not drop
7) on each stun I proc bleed and then frost. Proccing status effects is percentage based. So if I'm lvl 1 or level 100. It's the same
8) my utchi is lvl 25. Weapon level means more than stats.
9) with radagon soreseal I get +5 per stat. I can use godrick great rune but don't have arcs
10) Maliketh opened with the big combo btw. I will get oneshotted so I use the pillar to space him for the first part, and run the second part. If you stay under his telegraphed attacks you can quickly punish him. Everything he does is Dodgeable
In a nutshell. Other than the raw damage I deal. Someone with a level 100 character will do THE EXACT same poise and proc damage.
You don't do that much damage as katanas are fast, but you only do high dps with repeated hits. You going in hitting lightly once in a while. You can't expect a stun or a proc.
Use it don't use it. I could have gotten rude or joked. But I got lots of hrs. And I struggled first playthrough. I didn't understand poise and percentage based procs.
