I wish theyd put in a DLC Incantation where I can resummon my Dad who left me
Mine was cremated so it’d actually be an Ash🤣

They're called incantations now, not miracles
That would be a miracle

Real asf, but for incantations (except Dragons) most do so much damage the levels are better off in other stats
coded sword, also mind over 214 total fp is useless cause you heal to full with a flask at that fp, its not like hp
@@DeltaModelX That's silly, with more fp, you can carry more casts into battle, so the recovery matters less. It also allows a longer time between using recovery items.
@@connorburris4846 unless you are bored enough to grind past RL150 then your stat points actually matter, like they are intended to, there are plenty of better things to spend stat points on, like 60 vigor
@@DeltaModelXsure but that’s a ton of FP something like level 40. I’m pretty sure he’s talking about the fact that for this vid the guy filming had almost completely unleveled FP probably less than even level 20
Funny note about Poison Mist:
It's completely stealthy. If you can get behind mobs in PvE, you can just crouch and slowly kill them with the power of farts
Carried me in my first playthrough

You can chain cast dragonclaw by alternating hands while casting with two seals, makes for some good mixups if people are used to the timing of the normal second cast
Ooo😮
Omg it’s Kogasa from Touhou 11
@@Ayahuasca98 What a surprise.
I appreciate that you never badmouth a single person you fight against and stick to being informative of the builds you use.
- For bloodflame blade, it's usually better when put on a weapon with innate bleed, since the blood loss build up it applies is a flat 40 that can't be changed/increased.
- Greyoll's roar has an additional utility where it actually debuffs enemies hit by it, it reduces the damage they deal and increases the damage they take(basically a reversed golden vow).
- For Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike, Death Lightning, Lightning Strike, and Frozen Lightning Spear, they shouldn't really be used as aoes due to inconsistent spread, their real strength is against big targets in pve. There are videos of people fucking one-shotting enemies like trolls and dragons.
- O'Flame can true combo into catch flame, and iirc the charging speed of o'flame is EXTREMELY fast. Also, burn o flame has more consistent spread than you think and a big aoe, unlike ancient dragon's lightning strike(which is quite similar) it's a lot better against smaller targets like players with how much damage a single pillar can do.
- Pest threads is also very good against big targets, because the same individual projectiles can potentially hit multiple times in short succession. Lastly, Scarlet Aeonia inflicts a special version of rot that is way stronger than other sources the player can inflict to my knowledge.
I wish i wouldve known this before i got hand of malenia, im disappointed in it
@@davidponder1654duplicate it, by taking down one of those big walkers
@@jemgg i already started ng+ so I might as well beat her again
Blood flame nagakiba with double slash Carried me through the game until I got Hand of Malenia before Godfrey.
That uncharged Lighting Spear @19:32 doing that insane damage (then the Glaive right after) was due to your opponent standing in water, reducing lightning res. So you had both seals boosts + Canvas boost + environmental advantage in that one hit. Just guessing but it may have done something in the mid 800s dmg if you had charged it.
Some other fun little tidbits:
Lansseax Glaive's blade part does more damage then the wave itself, so it's more like other summoned weapon spells, like Gavel.
Both Dragon Lightning Spears can be aimed off a ledge and hit people below you.
Scouring BlackFlame is weird because it sharply rises up after casting. Free-aiming it down make it hit stuff near the ground better.
Heal spells scale with FTH very well, making them heal upwards to 1.3k hp at 80 FTH. And, while this is mainly a PvP showcase video, it does have a secondary use in PvE: all the AoE heals shred the damned Revenants. Even Blessing's Boon does DoT damage since it applies the regen to those bastards.
Erdtree Heal is uniquely dangerous has it can heal Crucible Knights if used near them. EXTREMELY situational but lore accurate! (Don't worry if you didn't know, I also JUST learned that.)
My favorite incantation has to be the Ring of Light. It is cheap, has really good range, not the best damage but can be combo'd into Erdtree's Greatshield's Golden Retaliation (or Carian Retaliation if you wanna change to magic dmg), giving it potential of 3 hits for the cheap cost of 7 FP (3 for spell and 4 for the shield reflect). Triple Rings also works but Golden Retaliation scales on upgrade level, not on the spell it reflects.

A tip for dragon claw. You can cast it indefinitely by alternating left and right hand seals and it prevents the extremely long recovery time from the second strike.
So obviously not shown in the vid cause it's only really useful in PVE, but darkness blinds enemies it hits and resets their aggro, which on enemies that can be backstabbed can allow for chain backstabs with little to no danger (so long as you remember to crouch walk or have something on so you don't produce sound). Also, the cloud can potentially stagger enemies with little to no poise. I recommend anyone who hasn't tried to use it to give it a try.
i'm kinda hoping they put casting ashes in the dlc, so we can have hybrid caster tools again, like Blue Flame and Mace of the Insolent, would give a lot more build variety.
Claw seal also gets the 50% str buff to spells while 2h
Whirl o Flame actually works decently in narrow hallways and choke points
Law of Causality works with chip damage through shields
I agree.
But then, all weapons need to be coded with spell scaling, no?
@@ITBEurgava not really, could just do what ds2 did and have it be based on the int/fth scaling of the infused weapon
You've done a service to the community with this series, cataloging all weapons and magic in video like that will not only help current players looking to make new builds but future players that are yet to come, and you even did it before Fextralife that is the official wiki of the game
Good work fellow tarnished, thy strength befits a crown
elden ring should come with pronounciations in the help section
16:13 This made me question my main Faith build since the Dragon Cult Incantations are by far my favourites and I've never heard of Lansseax's Glaive being chargeable.
And, yeah, it is not chargeable. I'm relieved I didn't misuse it and sad I didn't learn new gameplay-altering knowledge at the same time.
Accidentally put that in my notes lol
my apologies
It never gets old watching co-op summons just stand there in disbelief that their host died so easily.
Im doing a black flame build with malikeths black blade incantation. Ritual is less of a get off me button in pvp and more of a stay away. You cast it to protect yourself with fire so that you give yourself a bit of time to cast scouring black flame or self buff etc. Its less about damage and more about utility. The black flame graphics make it harder to tell what you character is doing so it can throw people off, forcing them to mistime their dodge
Not to say its great tho. Black flame shines more in pve than pvp. I really hope we get some more black flame spells in the dlc tho
Correct me if Im wrong, but the passive bonuses only apply of the item is held in your hand. Just having it equipped in an inventory slot does not provide the bonus. Just so the information is out there!
I think thats correct too, just having it in your weapon equip will not give you the buff think it has to be in active slot
I think there are some weapons that will give you a buff without needing to be in active slot though but not seals
@@treadstone2001I’m curious… what are those weapons?
@@Ouch193 Pretty sure Radahn's spears get a 20% damage buff when the lion greatbow is equipped, but you can have the lion greatbow in your offhand, and shoot the spears with another greatbow which has better scaling, and still get the buff from the lion greatbow in offhand
@@treadstone2001 Huh, that’s interesting. Thanks!
For people using bestial incantations with a strength hybrid build who want to increase casting damage, you can actually two hand the seal. Since it scales with strength, two handing it increases the damage
Also, correct me if I am wrong, all bestial incantations do physical dmg, so physical dmg buffs(like FGMS) increase the damage.
I saw that miquella joke coming a mile away
Black flame ritual is better as a trap I think , it surrounds both of you so they’re trapped in there with you somewhat, they can get out but there’s a good chance they’ll panic and get hurt either way.
It also doesn't do more damage when charged (barring godfrey's icon). The only thing charging does is make the flame pillars appear further away from you. So charged mode is "you're trapped in here with me" while uncharged mode is "kindly get out of my face." But yes, BFR is definitely not for damage so much as controlling spacing.
It’s obvious. He seems to be one of those that only focuses on how much damage something does instead of the utility of it
30:24 fun fact: since you are dealing fire damage to yourself, Flame Clense Me also removes the Frost debuff! (But not the buildup, only when it has been fully applied)
19:25 was so cool , I liked hw bro just walked thru the death mist n lighting while breaking through it all with madness
Okay, this might be the best time for me to have learned about this channel's existance. Instant subscribe!
Hey Monk, I've been playing around with an incantation build that uses all the fire incantations and have found the thing that was missing was oil pots.
Once people realize you are throwing oil pots they grow bold and just let you hit them with it.
Then you light em up.
Doesn't matter what kind of fire, they all get boosted.
The unnamed Dragonbreath spells have more range than the named ones. It's the primary reason I tend to prefer those.
EDIT: Surge O Flame is meant to chip players who are nearly dead in PvP, just like every iteration that came before it in a Dark Souls game. It's not really good at anything else.
8:12
Just like poison, having to stop to use an item can often be a big disadvantage that the opponent can use to pressure you further.
Plus, you can't always roll the bleed proc. If any "Bloodflame" effect procs the bleed through the bleed-over-time buildup, not even rolling will protect you from the damage of the proc.
Thus, Bloodflame Blade + anything that causes a lot of phantom hits, like Prelate's Charge, can be very strong if not dealt with properly.
While flame of the fell god is kinda hard to hit, it makes it easier to charge and use other attacks while the enemy runs away from the fireball, freeaiming giant’s flame take thee with it is specially good cause they’ll get hit by either of the two or both. Also dunno how viable this is but you can keep yourself close to the fireball so people will be afraid of coming close to you while you can also close in distance
Having the three fingers blessing also gives the frenzy flamed incantations a boost too. I used them in my first play through with my friend abd they were doing massive damage to bosses
Crazy good vid!
The dragon claw can be alternated when dual wielding seals. I think it might help mix up opponents, swapping it up like that.
There is 1 other category left other than main categories which is Tools that have 4 damaging item(Wraith calling bell,Omen bairn,Regal omen bairn,Ancestral infant's head) and there is shileds too if you count
"You want another smooch?!" got me rofl. You're great, Monk! Love the content so much
8:24 This has to be the funniest moment in all of your videos. I'm dying XD
I like to use the spells that shoot pullars out as counter spells. If the enemy tries to rush you down, it can create space or heavily punish them.
With the fire incantations
O Flame combos into catch flame
And Flame of the Fell god into a Giants flame can create frame trap if you learn the timing meaning you'll have almost 100% chance to hit one of the strongest two fire incants
Something interesting about dual seals with Dragon Claw is that you can alternate between left and right seal and it will keep chain casting, as long as you have stamina and fp. Just Donkey Kong foul Tarnished.
Dude, I'm dying at work, perfect timing. I'm about to BUST!
Miss your content, would be happy to see your videos more often
i’ve been waiting for this😍
"dab me up big dog" with dragonclaw is so funny 🤣
Always amazes me how much content they have in this game
Swarm of Flies is hands-down my favorite spell in the game. I went from a Faith build to an Arcane build just because of Swarm of Flies.
Oh man I’m so excited for the dlc incantations
What's next for our boy Monk? I feel like, with all the testing you've done, you could apply that to some fun builds :o
Black flame ritual alone sucks, but when in combo with other spells is extremely broken
Inside the flame u have 0 visual, so its almost impossible to avoid the next attack
It doesn’t suck, he’s using it wrong.
Sonaf in right hand, mikellas ks is left hand, int/faith build and g order incantations. Great build pve, ans pvp
Love The content man.
Thank you for the blessing Monk
16:22 Few things about this power spell (ADLS):
-Charged version is NOT boosted by Godfrey's Icon
-Spell has suprisingly long range down when casted from ledge (try at Four Belfires to see for yourself). Great to catch people by surprise or to eliminate larger group while being safer
-Is a beast and can easily one-shot everything that breaths, even single bolt packs a punch
One time invader decided to go past by fellow cooperator casting this thing. 2 seconds later was hit with ~1,7k damage
Sometimes i laugh for few seconds after 1-shotting invaders with it.
Named dragon spells are not objectively better, the unamed one cost 25 percent less to cast which makes misses less catastrophic and just allows for more casts.
Placi's ruin was my favorite because one time I was doing co-op with a friend and we beat malenia with it and also, knocking her up was hilarious
Beastial incantations are also pretty fp efficient. So much tanky goodness with buff stacking and just hucking big rocks all day.
BF ritual is really good if you pair it with burn o flame if you catch somone with BF ritual and then cast BOF it melts people I call it Inferno Galore
For the blakcflames, the double godflame seal is weaker than the dragon communion with the godflame if you want to spec into arcane too.
The godslayer one where you trap an enemy inside fire would go hard with the dragon incantations tho you just need to know how to use it I think. Also what happens when you spam the chasing spells while spamming other spells when they chase? That’d be a guaranteed hit right
Ancient Dragon's Lightning Strike is so OP. It is like the Comet Azure of Incantations, exept it is actually useful outside of biss cheese setups.
Whenever you’re casting AoE spells, have a weapon with the “endure” ash of war. It always guarantees the fattest of trades even if the spell you’re casting doesn’t have innate hyper armor.
I don't know why "I could've gone mad once more," killed me lmao!
FYI: standing in water reduces Lightning Resist, being wet by rolling in water also lowers Lightning resist. These effects stack
When I first started Rldrn Ring, I went through the trouble of getting the Clawmark Seal because I didn't even know the Finger Seal existed.
My favorite combinaision of seals for beastial ones is : two-hand clawmark (for 1.5x str scaling), cinquedea off-hand : best bonuses and a dagger at hand.
You hit upon the weakness of many of the powerful incantations, which is that you run out of FP flasks quickly, which means you have to go hard into FP flasks or carry a backup weapon. It's difficult to make a pure caster work with powerful incantations, you have to mix it up with melee or low cost incants. I'm not complaining since it makes sense.
I love your videos and it s good to know that you play on Xbox, one day i would like to play with you or help tets weapons, ashes or whatever very cool video
Swarm of Flies is amazing against Melania's second phase
You can also chain cast honed bolt with lightning strike
I’ve only ever hit death lightning one time and the dude accidentally quickstepped into it but it killed him in one hit doing over 1,000 damage
Nice video
for some incomprehensible reason inescapable frenzy applies your mainhand weapon as its damage so if you want to kill people with the incantation you gotta have like a bleed dagger or something
In my experience the dragon communion seal is the best, it requires way less faith than the erdtree seal and scales incantations almost just as well. Ive tested in and with my build at least (40 faith 20ish arc) it actually scales most incantations better than the seals meant for it at +25
finally someone who views magic objectively and not just "huhu weapon better just use a sword"
One thing I noticed when doing the dragon communion Incantations is that you stayed locked on, these incantations work better when free aimed.
Hitting frozen lightning strike in pvp is so nice, cause it feels like cocking a shotgun and then firing.
With the right setup, Frenzied Burst can 1shot people.
Fortissax’s lightning spear if aimed down from a cliff side will send down the spear itself.

Monk my beloved
I need you to do one with Every Shield in PvP or in invasions
pest threads is honestly either a zoning tool in pvp and a massive enemy killer in pve
The crucible spells actually get buffed by the crucible armor!
I believe you can infinitely combo dragon claw if you alternate the hand you cast in
noteworthy: crucible incantations and ashes of war (ordovis, siluria) are buffed by wearing the crucible knight armor set
Placidusax’s Ruin is just super laser piss, change my mind
I love surge o flame and whirl in pve purely because if RP reasons but in PvP .. well you saw it hahaha
My goat
We need more monk invasions
What armor set are you using?
In PvE against large bosses Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike is stupid powerful, I managed to three-shot Placidusax with an arguably unoptimized build
Finger seal has the best faith scaling for buffs and heals before you have enough faith to use godslayers at 27!
Also I really wish we had a black flame variant of catch flame 😢
You should have a build at the end to show off. The best
law of causality has to be a beserk reference
Appreciate you not being cheesy in PvP by not using a bunch of buffs
Death lightning is amazing and will always one shot, if it hits.
What’s the highest damage you have gotten on it?
Death blight lightning, also known as Blightning
Surge o flame is an anti-lock on spell, you get the best of it if you don’t lock on to your opponent (still doesn’t make it good though.)
Wait can somebody help me with this question my main character has 60 strengh and 60 faith shoud I use the claw mark seal ? Ur the dragon cult seal ? Cause idk what does better damage
I only use Elden stars to hit the crow in mogwin's Palace for farming it's the only spell I have incantation that will reach him
I always thought placi ruin did the initial lightning then holy dmg because it was yellow I am very simple minded apparently. Also over a thousand damage on greyolls roar?? I though the spell was meant to be used for its debuff properties I didn’t realise it’s stacked in dmg as well
i use Dragonice when fighting Malenia. Scarlet Aeonia gives you tons of time to punish with it.
Twohanding the Clawmark increases it's Strength scaling
And the Guranq's Scale with Strength
So instead you should use Clawmark with Cinqueda offhand
The reason for the lightening bolt did 715 damage is cause hes in water which lowers your lightening defense
