  • Could an Elden Ring build that only levels one stat truly be good? Of course it can! You just gotta have faith, and lots of it! Check out this holy build using the Radiant Gold Mask, Maliketh's Black Blade, the Black Knife, and the Erdtree Seal to spread the good word to all in the Lands Between!

    Up next, how about a Navy Seal run? The only weapons and items you can use have "seal" in the name - Marika's Scarseal, the Finger Seal, etc. - and the only armor you get is the Navy Hood.

    Hey something good to know, but following Yura's questline will give you the "Raptor of the mist" ash of war.
    Putting this on a dagger (or any other weapon) and casting it before a horse carriage in the hero's grave hit's you, will allow you to phase trough the carraige and therefore they become basically harmless.

      Before you manage to do that, Endure will make the chariot do less damage as well, and just roll through you and you just stand there not getting knocked down. Raptor of the Mists is probably better, but Endure is a slightly earlier option.

      RoB requires 12 strength and 18 dex. Tulok starts all these runs as wretch. To use RoB at wretch starting stats (excepting arcane because arcane only run), you'd need radagon's scarseal and prosthesis wearer's heirloom, which takes up valuable talisman slots that could better be used for other things.

  • @AceAviations2
    @AceAviations2 Před 11 měsíci +6

    Discus is an excellent spell, it was one of my staple spells on my recent hybrid caster with an Intelligence focus (60 Int, 24/25 Faith), I focused on Sorceries, however Discus and Blessing's Boon were staple when combined with the Golden Order Seal. It was never my main damage spell, however it comboed pretty well with the Sorceries I ran (think Ancient Death Rancor, Rykard's Rancor, Phalanx spells). I ended up replacing it, however it's replacement was Triple Rings of Light, aka the upgraded version of the spell. That rebound effect is something that you shouldn't ever underestimate, it can easily be the killing blow on an enemy charging at you.
    Yes it doesn't hit as hard as some spells, but for it's FP cost (an insanely low 3 FP), it's cast speed and how much damage it can do, it's one of the best spells in the game, or at least it would be if Holy Damage wasn't horrible in the endgame.

    This was a pretty neat build! I was doing a (mostly) faith run a while back but never finished it, surprised you never ended up using the Cipher Pata for melee but that is a bit out of the way.

    • @RadiantPaladin4
      @RadiantPaladin4 Před 11 měsíci

      Admittedly, the Cipher Pata probably wouldn’t work great once you hit the capital. Insane holy resistance and getting one-shot by most attacks would mean that a holy damage melee option wouldn’t work great. But it would have been fun to see for the earlier game when he can still take a hit

    • @zer0vision891
      @zer0vision891 Před 11 měsíci +2

      Based on the video, he was at 10 across the board with 99 Faith. He wore the Radiant Gold Mask, Gravewarden Cloak, Lionel's Greaves, and Lionel's Gauntlets. He had Godslayer's Seal and Gravel Stone Seal for LA1 and LA2, with Erdtree Seal and Black Knight for RA1 and RA2. Spells were obviously Black Flame, Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike, Lord's Divine Fortification, and Black Blade. He also obviously used Godrick's Great Rune.
      As for talismans, it looks like he's using either Fire Scorpion Charm or Lightning Scorpion Charm, or hotswapping them during phase transition. He's also using Radagon Icon, Ritual Sword Talisman, and Ritual Shield Talisman. He's also running 7 Blue Flasks and at least 3 at most 7 Red Flasks, but probably not that takes a lot of Golden Seeds. He probably stopped at +4 since they were fully restoring HP and FP at that point and there was no need to go out of his way for stronger flasks. Without the Great Rune, he only needed +2 for red flasks to full heal and +0 for blue flasks to restore, and with the great rune he needed +4.
      He also had various other items and gear along the way, like Golden Order Seal and Holy Scorpion Charm when he was using Discus of Light; Catch Flame and Flame Sling early on, Lightning Spear, Albinauric Mask for some reason. For his Wondrous Physick he was likely switching between Flame-Shrouded, Lightning-Shrouded, and Holy-Shrouded Cracked Tear, and what I think is Opaline Hardtear for damage negation. He also had Radagon's Soreseal, but I don't think he ever used it.

    Don't forget that faith can use a whole lot more options. I believe faith can proc every single status effect in the game aside from frostbite (although maybe I just missed the option for that). Magic is pretty much limited to magic damage and frostbite for the most part. Rotten breath makes Astel approachable early, poison mist makes for a great cheese on the Fallingstar beast. And being able to keep the same build and just switch spells around using the same upgraded seal, armor, and talismans is probably the most powerful bonus of all.

    It's so weird seeing the rage in Gelmir Hero's grave because I never even remember that path exists. You can, instead, on the first opening, drop onto the rafters and get into the room with the bloodhound knight from the window. Bonus: You enter through the ledge high up, so you can just cheese them from there too
    Also a bit surprised you didn't go for Gold Scarab when you weren't using Golden Order incants, that's a quick grab back in Limgrave, I'd expect the extra casts to be pretty helpful and the damage penalty to be irrelevant later on
