  • Hey all. This is my top 20 overpowered builds in Elden Ring! I hope everyone enjoys this one, as much as I do! This was one of my favorite videos in a long time. There's even a special appearance from another Elden Ring creator in the video! These TOP 20 overpowered builds will make the game easy, and all are at Rune Level 150. This is my ranking for the most overpowered builds Elden Ring has to offer, and a lot of these are truly a walk in the park!
    These are overpowered builds that also focus on reliability, with 60 vigor & 51 poise for the majority of them. Also 2 buffs + the tear as to not over buff/keep it simple. I hope these Builds help you take on the many challenges and difficult bosses in Elden Ring! 🤘

    Trying to finally beat this game after about a year and a half away, first FromSoft game and I'm too dumb to figure out a good build on my own and too little time these days to spend much time tinkering with builds so this is much appreciated.

    I had Rivers of blood on my bleed build cause my save was that old. Now messing with Eleonaras Blade. Will try Builds #4 and #3 with this.
    I'm gonna be playing this saves tracking things I need for DLC, still trying decide which saved to take to DLC but I do know what build I'm taking to DLC. Combination of #9 and #2. Pure INT like my first playthrough.

    I just beat the game for the second time with a level 150 character I built around using Blasphemous Blade. I pretty much planned to run with a "murder Malenia" build, and I did exactly just that. What I didn't expect was that weapon paired with Mimic Tear to take all the difficulty out of that fight. I only buffed with Golden Vow and Flame, Grant Me Strength before the fight along with the Flame cracked tear in the Physick flask, then my jaw dropped when I saw Taker's Flames hit her for around 2,800 damage in one hit! I just wanted to have a build that stood a chance against Malenia and instead I took all the difficulty out of the fight and burned her to death by just spamming Taker's Flames. Then there was the fight against Maliketh, where I don't think that fight even lasted a minute because spamming Taker's Flames deleted his health bar really fast. I did, however, switch to the Envoy's Long Horn for the fights against Mohg and Placidusax, and that thing just destroyed both of those bosses. The only endgame bosses that didn't go down so easily were Godfrey/Horrah Loux and Radagon/Elden Beast. I still needed maybe 10 tries to defeat Elden Beast.

    I'm usually a Bloodhound's Fang one trick but with all my playthroughs into NG+, I try to switch it up. The Scavengers curved sword builds are one of my close second favorites. With leveling arcane much higher than dexterity, does that mainly just increase the build damage/frost damage? Do those both mainly scale with arcane rather than dex? If that is the case a respec is in the near future. Love the in depth descriptions!

    • @TheKingofRedLightning
      @TheKingofRedLightning  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Awesome choices! 🤘 and the scavengers will scale with pretty much only arcane on occult for both bleed build up & damage/DPS. I like them because you can pump arcane up to 70-80 and need only like 14 Dex and can prioritize vigor, endurance & a lot more than split stats would normally allow.

    I remember my first playthrough (also my first souls game..) I started off with a faith build cause I liked the priest. Game was a nightmare without any guides- until I accidentally acquired the blasphemous blade. Had no idea how overpowered it was until I fought Malenia and took almost no damage because she just kept getting knocked down with every L2 attack I hit her with 😭 I really thought I was good…

    I played the azur comet build on my first character a sweet combo I found was using mimic tear with the aggro talisman. Worked really well even on those moving bosses plus I have night comet in my back pocket. I'm a little sad you didn't add a dragon communion build. I love it and it absolutely melts bosses since you can pretty hit for any weakness and I use the same mimic tear to draw aggro. I haven't tried it past ng+3 so maybe it teeters off but I'm loving it so far.

    Just wanting to say that since ice spear is a bullet art and scales of dex and int, the absolute best damage potential actually came from (strong) keen weapon affinity, with cold affinity coming second. basically there is strong and weak heavy and keen weapons that entirely depend on the weapon itself, notable weak keen weapons are naginata and nagakiba, keen swordspear would be the best affinity for max projectile damage on ice spear since sword spear is a strong keen weapon
    edit:consider magic affinity only if your int is much higher than your dex for the best damage based on your stats

For exaple Ice Spear from pure DPS perspective kills slower than Double Slash yet it's #11.

    The rusted anchor build, the spear talisman works well for me. Just test it, it only works when you are trading kinda because enemies have to be attaking you. But it can be in any phase of their attack.
    Test it on week enemies that wont do much damage so you can pay attention to the numbers. Or the albenarics i guess lol.
    But see how often the talisman procs to see if its worth it to you over other options. I used it on a heavy armor high poise build where i just traded with everything. Its fun but can get old or jarder to just let things hit you when enemies get tougher
    So i eventually changed my setup

    I did my first playthrough with a Dex/Bleed build and I was bored to death by the end of it. I feel like you’re much more limited by pretty much always having to wear the White Mask and Raptor’s Black Feathers if you’re doing the jump thing and the same talismans. The Marai’s sword’s slow charge wasn’t doing it for me either.
    Reduvias are fun and so is the Elenora’s twinblade. I did the early game with the Nagakiba and Double Slash, so I wore out spamming it by late game.
    It’s just more limited IMO and doesn’t really mesh with my play style I guess. I ended up doing a Strength/Intelligence build that I much preferred. I could wear a variety of armor. I used the Fingerprint shield and whatever I want for a weapon.
    Once I put some stats into Dex too, the variety of weapons and options just opened up and fit my play style much better.
    I’m also new to the game and not very good at the timing for rolling, that’s probably why I enjoy the heavy shield + counter style build. It’s interesting how a popular build might not fit a person’s play style, but the game allows you to find something that does!

    Hey Matt,
    How’s it going man? Hope all is well! I wanted to ask your thoughts on something. I have as of today gone back to my faith/strength build.
    Before that I had been running a Quality build (80 points into both dex and strength, with 40 something into faith) now it’s 40 something into dex (enough to use all dex melee weapons) and now 80 points into both strength and faith.
    I wanted to ask, if I use body buffs, will I be as powerful or more powerful with faith as opposed to the attack power of having 80 points in dex? I think almost all dex weapons also has scaling in strength, so buffing may make up for less points in dex. Not sure! I had forgotten just how powerful ADLS is! I felt like Thor! 🌩️💪
