Years ago I've completed Dark Souls 2 using only magic (sorcery + pyromancy) - so no weapons at all. It went surprisingly smooth although I ended up not going to DLCs. > > I'm thinking on doing this for the first installment but I have some doubts: >

• First, is it even possible to beat Four Kings with spells? On my first playthrough I tried to beat them with magic and it went really poorly. I'd prefer not to repeat this experience... >
• Second, are locations like Duke's Archive and Oolacile even doable with spells? With the sheer amount of enemies with high magic resistance, they sound like hell, especially given that we don't have any magic restoration options from DS2.

1. Stay near the vertical center of your side. Yamada is slow and he can't roll up or down so, the moment you get too far away from center, your opponent will hurl the ball too far for you to catch it.

2. Spend all your energy to spawn bombs. Your charged attack is awkward to use and isn't any stronger than a bomb. Bombs are life. Bombs are love.

3. Your side attacks (the ones that replace dash of other characters) are stronger than your main attack. For some reason, they often send the ball in a fast and erratic manner - this effects is triggered by after dash attacks on other characters, and are thus riskier than what you as Yamada can do. Absolutely abuse it (until enemy's AI becomes so sophisticated they can send this hell of a ball back at you).

After you have mastered the three teachings, only a few attempts will stay between you and cherry in Bushido Ball!

It includes a new beautiful character sheet, Lodestar itself - a quick reference guide, and an updated map of Ironlands.
