Dung pies, for the uninitiated, are projectile items featured throughout the Dark Souls series. In the original game, they inflict enemies with the deadly toxic status while poisoning you as well, making them situational at best. But if you can hit enemies with enough of these little rolled-up balls of shit and simply outlast them, dung pies can be a potent (if time-consuming) way to deal with troublesome bosses. It just takes some planning, knowledge of attack patterns, and a little patience.

Fortunately, one disgusting merchant in Dark Souls is more than happy to supply you with an endless supply of feces, so Aggy’s run mostly comes down to avoiding bosses as they slowly die from the toxic stench. He does take liberties here and there, such as using non-dung-pie-related exploits to defeat and/or avoid certain enemies that are immune to poisoning, but after seeing him defeat the notoriously unforgiving game’s final boss using just poop, I’m sure you’ll agree that he aced this challenge.

Dark Souls may be nearing its eleventh birthday, but videos like this prove it’s not going away anytime soon.
