  • Whats that armor and where you get it.

  • I got it.. 1st try it still works.. I assume im updated I was online so... There ya go =D I just went in grabbed the Armor and ran allthe way back eventually he jumped the gap and fell to his death ^_^

  • yeah getting him to jump the gap as been a pain for me cant get him to do it

  • It does work!!! Thanks man.

  • After hearing about pit fall trick from a friend, I tried it numerous times and kept getting spammed by his fire attack. After watching this video, there's a detail that was left out in the description that I think will solve a lot of people's problems with getting this trick to work.

    You have to pay attention to Discharge's arm. He usually holds it around his torso. Running to where the armor is gets him to pull his arm out and use it. If his arm isn't pulled out, he WILL NOT go over.

  • @SuigaRou THANKS DUDE! For the heroes who are having problems killing Discharge do what SuigaRou said!!

  • @BBQHotPocket Happy to help.  :)

  • He one hit kills me :/

  • @EFYOUSEEKAYx you should build up your fire resistance and endurance, helps out a lot in this fight, high dexterity and vitality can help out cause you have more health to lose.

  • It still does work, however, it seems harder to execute. It was easier for me to just dodge his attacks and then counter.

  • Still works on 03/02/12.

    You defeated indeed :D

  • He won't go over the damn edge!!!

  • this 100% works just tried it with the latest patch

  • i cannot get it to work!

  • this works perfectly fine! 27/02/12

  • Fuck this boss!!!!!!of all the bosses I can't kill this stupid bitch i swear I almost broke my fuckin controller today

  • nope no longer works 27/02/12 just fire blasts you and the flame reaches the door

  • Use the homeward bone after you pick up the armor, I mean, and you won't even have to fight him.Worked for me anyways.

  • The gold-hemmed armor set has been nerfed, it's not nearly as useful as it used to be.For the record, you don't even have to fight the boss to get the armor, if you use a homeward bone as soon as you pick up the armor you'll warp right out of the boss fight.

  • it works great

  • Comment removed

  • For those that are failing, grab the armour first. If you don't, he'll just spam the fire attack at you.

  • I just did it. it still works

  • the latest patch stops him way before the edge of the casm.

  • This does not work anymore and if it does tell me cause everytime I do it I lure hime towards that area he follows just like in the video but then about halfway down close to the door he stops and does not move any farther and when he stops he shoots a big fuckin flame cannon out of his arm. Is anyone else having this problem?

  • doesnt work for me

  • i think the game wanted to make it easy for us

    ofc not glitch if he falls normaly

  • I did it legitimately!

    ...died a million times and got frustrated as hell, but I did it!

  • Im Having Troubles . I Ran All The Way To The Safe Spot , Waited , Ran Out And Wen I Get To The White Portal , He Keeps Throwing That Blast Until I Run Out Of Flask

  • 2/17/2012 still works perfectly fine

  • fuck yeah fuck u ceaseless vag discharge

  • For those who hv troubled running to the white gate. U guys can just stay at the safe spot shown on this video and wait for his hand attack. The moment he wants to attack u then jump to the right section and turn back coz his hands will stick on the wall. Then start slashing..Repeat that till u finish. Gud luck. This boss no challenge at all

  • Hese called the ceaseless discharge because he endlessly spews lava from himself. Hese probably a demon placed their to guard Izalith.

  • works perfectly 15/02/12

  • Worked just now, I ran all the way to where I looted the armor, ran all the way back to the white door, stood inside the white, he slammed his arm down I attacked it then he insta-died lol ty

  • What the eff? I just beat him by getting hit, attacking him, healing, and repeating. Took me 10 Estus Flasks.

    Wish I knew about this...

  • it worked soo good. thannks.

  • i love this boss :P

  • Does this still work? Because when I lure it back, it just sticks around way behind the hole, and spams fire tentacle like an ass nugget.

  • @Lycaneian Yeah it works, just don't die in the beginning, sprint back to the beginning by the fog gate.

  • @Lycaneian

    LMFAO ass nugget

  • It works , go for the armor "again" and ruuuuuuuuuun forest run

  • so wait as soon as you take the armor you sprint all the way back without stopping?

  • i have a weird experience against this boss, the first time i killed him i just fought him "head on". i dodged his attacks and hit his "hand" with my blakcnight sword +5. it was so easy. i read many people find this boss is difficult, i just llol'ed. then i made a new char, face this boss again and died so many times. karma is a bitch xD

  • it does work runing back to the armor and there again

  • Ceaseless Discharge? Are you fighting Peter North?!

  • This doesnt work anymore. I just tried. :(

  • I don't understand.. at first playtrough i killed him very easy on some level 60.. remembering having light armors and just blocking his attacks and hitting back. Now on second playtrough I used homeward and came back later and now he's a crazy nochace superboss! don't know what hes been eating since last time ..

  • I feel so guilty after doing this... Next playthrough,we're gonna duke it out.

  • I find that Havel's armor is yet the best armor in the game. I have the full set on plus Havel's ring to increase my armor load. To equip his shield and to use effectivly increase strength to 50 and dexterity to about 20 or 25 your choice.

  • @Killsorow holy fuck that must be a bitch to get!

  • I haven't tried it yet, but I noticed you said that this the gold hemmed armor is the best in the game. So far I found that the stone armor in the forest area is by far the strongest... I got this armor pretty early on in the game also. the torso armor is like 91 or something

  • @Freshrock heavy as fuck tho.

  • This isnt working for me... He goes about half way and then stops to cast fire. So I just did him the normal way and dodge roll right when fist coming down and it wont hit and if your lucky, you can roll between his tenticles when they land and he will just repeat that one move and never do his sweep attack.

  • Did anyone else feel a little guilty knocking him off the cliff after he looks at you all sad right before you do it?

  • I DID IT!!!!!! & Achieved Victory!!! :P 

  • this is one stupid victory. Win like a champ in a heroic battle, not like a neet using game holes, loser

  • the dick keeps one shotting me

  • @LeadFarmer11 yes me too first time second time is good:)

  • It works i just did it thanks

  • It works For Sure, just did it on New Game + and this helped out TONS!

  • I confirmed it still works.. as the noob states below if you cant survive the fire.. dont get mad.. go grind...

  • If any of you need help with it,(as you clearly do) then send me a message on xbox live Gt: is Jaikerz32 aswell so i can run along and help you, bear in mind i might have to create a new charecter to help you.

  • Update: Many people have said that this will not be patched, it's purely intentionalso no it won't be patched , also if he just shoots at you, then you need to run all the back to where the armour is, and then sprint to the fog door, TRUST ME it works, many people have done it, and is virtually the easiest boss in the game (if you know what to do)

  • oh look. fire attacked 5 times in a row and died, AGAIN!

  • @colindryburgh Folp9's comment at the top works perfect. try it yo.

  • @joeyxl3456 thanks. but i done it by hiding in the cave and running when he took a swing at me and 2 hand attack him. now to just get past all the big demon things after it, lol

  • @colindryburgh lol cool. i saw those demon things down at the bottom but i just turned back cause i didnt know you could go down there. ill go back there soon. love this game :)

  • @joeyxl3456 just follow the path down that used to lead to the lava. that will get you to the other big demons. i wasnt sure about this game at first...... but now its my favourite game! its just amazing!!!

  • @colindryburgh thanks ill head down there later on tonight. definitely agreed i just love this game. i rrrrreeeaaallllyyyy hope From Software will make a new Souls game too......and i think some dlc is coming for Dark Souls lol. best series ever!.

  • @joeyxl3456 my best series ever was cannon fodder, with this a close second lol

  • this really does work i have just done it

  • hahhahahahahhahahahaha did the same thing but he jumped and i got behind him.... still works

  • he wont come 2 me

  • @fudgeballs87 well do what i said

  • Well he kept shooting me to just man up take is attacks by shielding his fire blast so that it only does like 1/4 damage then attack the claw thing, heal when needed and repeat it took me like 5 of his attacks to kill him.

  • Really wasn't expecting that to work :gr8

    btw repeating what Jaikerz32 said " You have to run to the place where the shiny thing was then run all the way back to the smoke door then he throws his claw thin "

  • He won't walk towards me. He just keeps shooting me from long range.

  • He just keeps shooting me I cant do it

  • you can be level 1 and do this, easy as pie. and yes it worked

  • I JUST DID IT!!! IT STILL WORKS, hurry before they patch it. As of 10:32 pm 1-24-2012 it works.

  • @bigvic8701 Congrats buddy.

  • @bigvic8701 they arent gonna patch it, its part of the game.

  • @bigvic8701

    They're not going to patch it, it's intentional.

  • @bigvic8701 Lol it's not a glitch......

  • lvl 60 is that enough? and he says 45 hours in...im only 12 hours in lol

  • im level 60 here, is that enough?

  • it worked for me, i tried it a second ago

  • It still works guys. Here's the problem: If you fail, you need to go back to where you picked up the armor! THEN lure him back. And yes, you can use the 'shortcut' in the rocks. If you don't go back to the armor (you'll probably get hit once running to it- before you reach the 'secret' path) then all he'll do is shoot flames at you. But if you lure him back to the armor THEN sprint to the door? It works.

  • @Folp9 yup you are right thnx! :)

  • @Folp9 wow thanks for taking the time to type that bro. works perfect just the way you said. i guess he got really pissed off running around after me like that so he made the jump at me lol :)

  • totally works cheers!!!

  • yup it works

  • Still works. Thanks for the tip!

  • lol i love how he said its 45 hours into the game. when i beat quelaag first and grab that set in under an hour. :D

  • @Crudemcc Either not your first play through, or you think you're cool for lying. ;D

  • @TheGreatGiroux haha well. i can do it on my first play throughs now, but my very first time i didnt do quelaag first ;P im on ng+++ on my battlemage

  • @Crudemcc yeeaaahh your full of shit just saying

  • @Nightfire564 lol your mad because you suck at the game and dont know how to kill quelaag first, andthen go to ceaseless. :P just sayin.

  • this worked for me i actualyl didnt watch the video before doing so. it was funny i was like. oh... ok...

  • lol. i try the method and it work. thanks for the guide.

  • Man, I tried this method with four different characters now, it doesn't work for me. I just end up attack his arm since he just always stops and blast fire at me everytime. With the Black Night Shield, I can block almost all the damage from his fire attacks. I tried getting the armor and staying close to him till I got to the gate, and everytime, he stops in the same place. I've tried shooting him with arrows and melee attacks, nothing. I'd say just use the black knight shield and attack him.

  • Comment removed

  • he only walks to a certain point for me then stops he wont get any closer to the edge wtf... >.< this guys an asshole!

  • @FatBoiiFlexxx you need to go the armour tablet, shoot him and then run, he should follow you all the way

  • this method worked for me a couple of days ago.

    you can get to this boss within 30 minutes of starting a new game if you wanted to.

  • In response to all people saying this doesn't work, you need to run to the armour (gold hemmed) and either get the armour, or shoot him and sprint like hell, he will hit you a few times but with your estus you should be able to live, run on the outside way, not the shortcut and hit the fog wall,then unload on his hand till he dies, like this comment so everybody can see this and stop saying it doesnt work, because it does as i did it just now as of now 16/01/2012

  • Comment removed

  • @Jaikerz32 He stops at the edge of the pit and breaths fire on me all the time. When I come closer he starts to attack me with his tentacle thingys so I run back and he shoots fire again. Maybe they patched it? I'll try once more..

  • @Jaikerz32 I come through the gate hes already coming to kill me i lead him over to the gate and non stops breathes fire on me,what am i meant to do?

  • @Jaikerz32 even if you already took the armour..do the entire path again! it works!!

  • @Jaikerz32 They patched the game so that if you shoot him, he will launch fire and not punch you nor follow you to the cliff. It deals a ton of damage, is largely unavoidable, and prevents him from falling for this trick. YOU MUST GET THE GOLD_HEMMED SET AND RUN. One punch should kill or mortally wound you at level 25 with this armor. I know from experience...

  • Comment removed

  • @Jaikerz32 yes indeed. but it takes a few tries :)

  • LOL its works it dies when you drag it back

  • This is meant to happen...there is a waterfall and an animation if you look down

  • didn't work for me, BUT this little beastie had a nasty habit of trying to get me in my safe zone that you mentioned so i hid till he extended the tentacle then attacked with zweihander and hid again

  • @obscurum1106 Did'nt work for me either but I'm glad you posted this cause it totally works, it takes a bit of time but I mean in the end it;s worth it. 10,000 SOULS!

  • I saw a German video of this boss and it was titled "Lavaström Daemon" WHY DON'T WE GET A COOL NAME?! Where the hell did "Ceaseless Discharge" come from?! I just thought that was a name for a song on the soundtrack!

  • @Legatofan4ever The reason it's called Ceaseless Discharge is probably beacuse he never ceases to attack you and you cannot block alot of his attacks.

  • @Naxus2 And the lava is emitted from him. Since it's a constant stream of lava from Ceaseless Discharge, its name is fitting (well, until you beat it).

  • @xAxiomaticx Yes exactly, never thought of that, nice.

  • @Legatofan4ever and besides Ceaseless Discharge being used to name something has more meaning than if something was plainly named "something" demon. Its unoriginal. Where as Ceaseless Discharge is more imposing as it's foreign to what one expects to be a name, and acctually original.

  • Finally,my Discharge is no more.Had to do it the hard way though,hide then attack.Hope u guys/gals have more forgiving Discharge than mine =)

  • Have tried multiple times and my Ceaseless Discharge aint playing along with this said method....Pulling my hair out! (and I like my hair)

  • doesn't work as of 1.0.5

    

  • Worked first time for me - was retardedly easy..basically free levels and armor set that looks pretty cool

  • Yep I just did it... it works =)

  • I just did it. It works. FACT!

  • it does work, did it offline last night, could not believe my luck

  • 45 hours in? Im bloody 65 hours in and have only just gotten the lordvessel!

  • Filthy lies 

  • Doesn't work any more QQ

  • not anymore it doesnt work QQ

  • it dose not work any more, i got him all the way back and he just stood at the edge and shoot his fire at me.

  • @finalmetal2 it still works. Tried it out a couple of days ago.

  • Im on him at 11, maybe 12 hours at lvl 42. Did I skip something?

  • It works big time

  • Not for me... I'm at the same spot but he just keeps using that fire attack...

  • @BlueAce417 the fire attack reaches everywhere and behind everything too

  • Meh, worked for me.

  • Confirmed working - just did it lol :)

  • Wrong, this DOESN'T work in 1.05. Once you get back to the start he just spams a fire attack from really far away.

  • @adam94949494

    so far that's what i've found.

  • @adam94949494 not true, I did it just right now, it works if you let him do the attack where you find the armor

  • I tried this on NG+ and didn't work at fucking all. He just spams his long ranged attack (does ~800 dmg) and stops right at the ledge. Not once has he actually jumped like in this vid :'(

  • 45 hours into the game? I completed it in less than 30, on my first playthrough too. I killed that boss in about 5 or 7 hours into the game. IGN employees how crap can you be? seriously?

  • @BoltonBoro good for you.

  • @BoltonBoro

    i'm on him 23hrs in...

  • @BoltonBoro Why would you rush through an excellent game like this thought, I think your missing the point of rpgs, I'm at this point after 24 hours gameplay, and not because im rubbish but because im taking it slowly and im enjoying the game, You wont have got any where near the amount of fun I get from this game because you clearly just rushed through it.

  • @De4DLYV3NOM i didn't rush through it, I killed every enemy i came across. It just didn't take me long, i rarely died unlike most who die a lot in this game. Later when i made it to Ornstein and Smough it took me a long time. Everything else in the game i found quite easy, because of how they structured the advancement through the game. Personally I found Demon Soul's to be harder, that's probably why i could get through the game quite quickly.

  • I did it legit with the Black Knight Great Sword +4

  • I killed this guy the hard way. If you didn't finish this game back when it was released you're a scrub! I did it all and legit pre-nerf. YES I WANT A COOKIE DAMMIT!

  • Nice one lads

  • Confirmed working. If he is spamming the fire attack at the fog gate, run all the way back to where the armor is (or was, depending on if you've picked it up already) and then high tail it back to the fog gate.

  • CONFIRMED - Dec 26th. If you've died fighting him before then he's gonna come after you as soon as you go through the fog gate. Use Pyromancy FLASH SWEAT if you have it to nullify his fire attack, and run to where the armour was. As soon as his arm comes out for melee, run back to the fog gate. Use Flash Sweat again on the way back. Stand against the fog gate and when he jumps at you, hit his arm for VICTORY!! Good luck!

  • Whats about being patched? this is legit -_- THIS IS WORKING ON 1.05 THIS IS NOT A GLITCH, I REPEAT THIS IS NOT A GLITCH, THIS IS PRETTY MUCH LEGIT, I'VE JUST DID IT AND IT WORKED PERFECTLY.

  • 22 Dec 2012. This tactic works. Confirmed kill at 1.35 a.m. Disregard whoever is complaining that it doesn't , didn't , will not work for them.It took me about 6 tries to get him to follow me.I had already stolen the armour as well.Also I strongly believe it's a legit kill.Because the boss has some sort of "Noooooooo!" falling off the edge animation!

  • Comment removed

  • it works and i've got the latest update. gotta lure him a couple of times since he was slow in following

  • Patched! Doesn't work in 1.05

  • i beat him first time two handed +5 black knight halberd

  • I'm pretty sure this doesn't work anymore. Tried many times, he will never go to the pit.

  • doesnt work.

  • um just stay in the safe spot and bate his attacks move out of the way of its claw then hit the claw rinse repeat. now you wont feel like a cheater

  • it worked great

  • Thanks a lot, worked like a charm

  • It's Iblis! O_O

  • worked a charm, thanks made this much easier

  • it works just fine. On my first playthrough I had some troubles too... but now on N + i did it the first time

  • I did this on accident at sl 25 just trying to steal the gold hem robes =D
