THANK YOU!!!!! I did most most of this other than the buffs, and I FINALLY got the win over the final boss. Still took me a few times to learn what I could and couldn’t get away with, but it ended up being a fun and satisfying win. On a fight like this, I have no problem running a “cheese” build like this.
No cheese about it, shields are in the game to be used or there would be no shields.

tysm my kind sir, by (mostly) following ur guide i've finally managed to beat the final boss of the DLC
the main changes i did were having my main weapon be the rot rapier with bleed, i used the golden vow and protection of the erdtree as my support spells (i still used the schollar's shield), and i had as many npc friends as possible :D both of the lore guys + a mimic with a repeating bow that could fire either bleed or rot bolts and a frenzied flame seal, having access to all of my previously mentioned spells + erdtree heal, black blade, black flame and scarlet aeonia (tho i haven't seen him using anything offensive other than scalet aeonia). oh and he also had access to a single hefty rot pot because might as well
My favourite build! You taught me how to play this build! Thx you for all! 😋
P.S. Naginata + Ash of War: Ice Spear = one love.🥰
On the ball as always. Great work!

Smithscript shield is lowkey amazing. Throw only costs 3fp and a little stam, locks on and redirects to whatever you throw at it (can even throw it behind someone and have it come back boomerang style and hit them), and pretty decent strength scaling.
Easily hitting mobs at 8-1200 a throw, and more resistant bosses only a little less. Makes dragon headshots a breeze while they do their bullshit
Was waiting for this video. Keep up great work mate!

It is so funny to watch this build in action.
Build got me the win against the final boss.
I don't like I had to drop my old build but the attacks are endless, near no opening without taking a hit, even the mimic tear does not last long or even keep attention for much.
I did nearly do it, literally the health bar was so low you could not even tell it was there, but I could not get in that last hit.
Thanks for this. DLC is finished
Haha, this is literally the build I used. Very nice.
solid build my man. after all those fancy dual-wield, two -handed build, i still go back to this lmao
Fun, isn't it?
The man 🔥Thank you for these, game changer for me.
Newer player question: Does the Ice Spear ash conflict/cancel out with the Barricade Shield ash being active on the shield? Or does the passive effect coexist with the shield? Appreciate ya!
💪
Hey for a max level character what changes you would make to the build to be even stronger?
The antspur rapier with blood afinity is the better weapon for this build as you can have up to 117 bleed and 50 scarlet rot buildup so bosses get even further shredded with more max health D.O.T. damage from rot while getting max health bleed dmg as well. Definitely much better
Great build.
Thanks Bro !
I'm not dismissing the Cross Naginata, but I REALLY like the bloodfiend fork for a more arcane oriented poke build.
Was waiting on the cRPG Elden Ring build for the DLC!
What are your thoughts on a bleed infused Sword Lance (new boss weapon) in comparison to the Bloodfiend's Sacred Spear?
This is THE build if you want to have fun and feel immortal in this game. Amazing how good this simple concept is, I've first tried like 90% of the DLC bosses including the final boss! I've also went out and got 99 Endurance since I'm lvl 270 anyway, making it so I don't have to swap armor between bosses and exploration :)
Where you get the shield gaurd talisman? Where you get the ashes of war early and late build?
Praise the turtle🛡🙌
I think my toxic trait is instead of challanging myself and beating the game normally. I search for goofy op builds, and then giggle for 15 minutes after i beat the really hard fight 😂. Thank you for this build 🙏
I think Lance (Blood affinity) is also good because it’s a great spear with decent poise dmg that can stagger enemies
Hi am having some trouble with the the lightning Dragon have you any advice
I just want to point out that, altenatively, you can use Spiked Spear instead of Naginata. If you are going for a Fingerprint Stoneshield or Verdigris, you'll get more benefits from using Spiked Spear as it has a higher strength scaling than Naginata which will put all the 48 str stat to good use, on top of that it also has a bleed passive just like Naginata.
Have you actually compared the two? Does it end up with higher AR?
@@jimatchoo370 Naginata should be a tiny bit stronger on other upgrade affinities. But if you'll be using cold affinity on a spear poker build with the verdigris or fingerprint shield that has a big strength requirement, the C scaling on strength for the spiked spear would be much better than a D strength scaling Naginata
For the record, at least the dragon halberd R1 works with shield pokes. Can’t recall if I’ve notice any others but def that one does
What do you mean I cant combine the second greatshield scholar shield with seppuku? Cant I just put it away for a second?
why not go with mogh spear? usually I can fill in an entire 3 combo chain in between some boss phases (especially with summons) and this triggers extra bleed
Hey bro. Im terrible at this game. I just followed this guide and one shot messmer. Thank you!
Nice! It's why it's one of my fave builds.
You might also be interested in this version for facetanking even the final boss of the DLC instead of blocking: czcams.com/video/qv1hnuqahfk/video.html
Tried this build on Messmer and it works great, until the buffs wear off and you will never have the time to rebuff again cause they take 3-5 business day to go off. Not sure how I'm supposed to deal with rebuffing both shield and naginata mid fight, doesnt seem possible to me.
What method are you using to get ultrawide in the game? It made me really angry that the developers essentially locked it out. Currently I have to use Flawless Widescreen and make a copy of the game, but this leaves me unable to play online at all.
hmm, i build this today and i am getting constantly hit by unblockable (?) attacks even from standard mobs. stamina is full/even full but i am taking damage while blocking nevertheless. why?
There is no need to equip bull-goats set, much less fingerprint shield. Just put 34 strength and fully upgrade a golden greatshield and slap on barricade ash of war, it will get you the most bang for your buck and any armor you like the look of as long as it gets you above 50 poise. 38 endurance for medium rolls with this setup.
Can you kill commander gaius w this build? Show a video!
how do you have 316 equip load?
How good is this in pvp?
hi, can I use shield grease instead of scholar's shield spell? is it the same effect ?
Overall scholar's shield is better I believe. I can't remember why exactly, but Rusty talks about it when he ranks all the sorceries.
Why I can't use the shield buff while I do the seppuku it always auto cancel the buff :/
Guard boost is increasable actually, it's just multiplicative now and dont show values in the arsenal.
You could also use Barricade Shield ash of war, to further raise your guard boost, while gain Hardness4, which means even some bosses fill flinch attacking you. Haligtrree crest shield is comparable to Fingerprint with barricate, but easier to meet prerequisites
Barricade Shield on +10 Brass Shield can allow even a non-tanky character to actually freaking tank that Twin Moons spell from Rellana. I'm pretty sure it can tank even the third pulse of that spell, though I could not try it out again since work came calling(and I died due to having little hp to begin with when she started the spell and ran out of last remains of stamina I had at the second pulse). Barricade shield is great for blocking heavy hitting enemies and counter attacking them. Good way to trigger critical strikes on humanoid bosses/enemies in the base game.
Noob question: how are you using rallying standard buff and seppuku while shield is being held? R1 to apply the shield buff, but what after that? L2 makes me charge forward with the shield.
Just choose to 2hand the weapons 😀
Y + RB or Triangle + R1, so the Shield Ash of War won't trigger, then return to Shield.
If I could like this twice I would. Finally beat that dogwater final boss in the DLC.
For the Turtle Pope!
😁😁😁
I heard that bloodfiend arm is really strong
Why my spear remains “blood” and doesn’t get “occult?”
I added the spear of the impaler to it.
I love how your carry weight is ridiculously high even though your endurance is super low.
Winged Crystal Tear!
Question man, how is your equipment load so high? Im 225 and NG+ 1 and I jave 40 endurence ....nothing close to what you have.
Winged Crystal Tear flask effect!
I get having range in your pokes in nice but I feel for bosses barring dragons and other oversized bosses, the cleanrot knight sword is a such a good choice. This one has the highest poke range and some of the highest scaling of its archetype while draining half the stamina and receiving the same scaling in blood build up as naginata. Please tell me if I’m wrong tho.
Edit: I thought the benefits of Greatshield talisman were minimal (I.e. non existent) for higher guard boost shields?
the talisman is basically useless yes. It only saves like 2-4% of stamina loss you're better off just using a stamina increasing talisman or a damage/defense buff
Cleanrot knight sword got no aracane scaling. So arcane wont scale your bleeding with this
@@Comuniou956 it does when u make it bloody tho?
what about the pearl shield talisman? i feel like that would be perfect for this build
It can help, but I find Elemental Damage is often very low when blocking already.
cRPG bro follwing the kiss (keep it simple, stupid!) rule. Powergaming isnt always about building a complex machine of moving pieces and intricate arcane (no pun intended) mechanics. Sometimes powergaming is just about eliminating potential pitfalls and sources of player error. The iron trutle does a splendid job doing exactly just that.
It looks like I build I will jump into only to deal with the most annoying bosses and go back to my usual build afterwards. It's a practical build to deal with some of the bs that game can throw at you.
@@chillax319 one if the, if not the most annoying things are bosses with movesets like Margit: Nearly identicalv windup animations for three similar attacks that all have different delays to catch you in a roll. The only thing you can really do about that is turtle up and poke.
How do you have occult on your naginata? i have the seppuku ash of war on it, but mine can only be applied blood, not occult
Black Whetblade adds the Poison, Blood, and Occult Affinities to the menu when selecting compatible Ashes of War
@@defender999k tysm my friend
How easy and long will it take for this build to get going from the very start? Im a new player and i have this thing where i have to get a build going before fully exploring a world.
What I dont understand is the equip load. Doesn't make sense lol. I get that the physick will buff you up to carry more & when fighting but when exploring are you running around naked to move lighter?
Btw what ash of war does the fingerprint stone shield have.?
It's from the Winged Crystal Tear, when exploring you can for example add Great Jar Arsenal for higher equip load, and you don't really need full Heavy Armor set for exploration, as enemies are easily handled by just blocking & poking with Shield, so you can equip other armor for at least Medium Load!
@@cRPGBro ohhh okay. Makes sense . Haha I was confused 🤣. That weight load changes alot . Damn. Thanks . Running around with this build is pretty fun 🤣🤣🙏🏻.
@@cRPGBro btw what ash of war you have on your fingerprint shield?
Is the eclipse greatshield still viable? I just spent hours of my life grinding it watching your last guide 😢
Yep, it's still a great choice until you can get Fingerprint Shield, which only comes much later assuming you're still at the early game!
However, if you're already at late game or DLC, Fingerprint or Verdigris is the way to go.
i dont think that tear is needed for equip load. You dont need to roll as a tank shield spec. also how do you switch ashes of war so the weapon one is equipped? mine is showing shield bash. Also trying this build against undead and wow it sucks , i do like no damage. Maybe its cuz im on ng+4 in dlc
if you put the no skill - ash of war on your shield, you only have the weapon ability to use
Question before i try making this build how did you get your equipment load so high?
Winged Crystal Tear for boss battles.
For normal exploration you can rely on Light/Medium Armor since Shield Blocking & Poke makes it a breeze anyways.
Thank you
how do you have 254 equip load? I followed this guide and have 83 as my max, even dumped more points into endurance?
Winged Crystal Tear
@@samifuenza thanks, I figured that out shortly after asking lol, did finally beat the dlc
You dont need to use scholar shield, only use the shield grease
Why is my equipment load only at 90 but yours is 200
How do you have a medium load with only 14 endurance and all that armor, huge shield, multiple weapons? I don't understand.
Winged Crystal Tear!
how is ur stamina/load so high? when ur endurance is so low?
It's from the Winged Crystal Tear!
Very nice build, but I have a doubt, I am trying to do the build but I am having a problem with equip load. How did you manage to get to 245 equip load without any talismans?
Winged Crystal Tear, he talks about at: czcams.com/video/s_2H1Tg7afE/video.html
It doesn't block messmers grab attack btw
No fingerprint?
How do you have such a high equip load with only 14 endurance?
yeah how?
ah because Physick
@@wiskzito really? So you only don’t fat role with heavy armour for a short time physic is up?
does poise matter in this type of build?
Not really, since the idea is to block everything with the Shield.
The armors with highest Poise however also tend to have high Damage Negation which can help if you lose too much Stamina and end up taking a hit without your shield.
How do you manage to get an equip load over 250?!?!
Winged Crystal Tear!
Is this doable as a str faith build?
Yes, but you will have less Blood Buildup due to no Arcane and Arcane Scaling from Occult infusion.
Seppuku + the base Blood Buildup from Cross Naginata can still help though.
You can also infuse it with Heavy and go Bloodflame Blade instead of Seppuku I suppose, for a bigger STR focus.
How do you have so much equip load with only 14 Endurance?
Winged Crystal Tear!
How is his equip load so high ?
lvl up endurance
@@myfinallight hes only got 14 endurance lol
i assume the physick flask
Made the same build with the same stats but I’m overloaded. Did I miss something?
I cover it in the Flask section, it's the Winged Crystal Tear effect!
How are you walking around all the time with heavy armor and low endurance?
Winged Crystal Tear!
You also don't need full heavy armor for normal exploration as normal enemies are quite easy to destroy with Shield Pokes.
@@cRPGBro is it possible to roam without flask? so low stamina?

@@ProbyWaN1337 i know but lord of frenzied flame cant hide away from his mobs, must beat these f*ckers
if you want to get rid of them - you will have to parry their grab attack.
when they die, they will not respawn for the rest of your playthrough.
soft cap on dmg stats is 80, good guide tho
How did you achieve so huge wieght limit with 14 endurance?
Winged Crystal Tear!
IMO, Fingerprint > Verdigris at max level. Fingerprint can use barricade AoW and Verdigris cannot. Fingerprint with barricade skill up has as much stamina defense as Verdigris. Other stamina defense boosts are available on both shields and stack multiplicatively. The only downside to fingerprint/barricade is the FP cost needed to keep barricade up. At max level, FP cost is not a problem and thus Verdigris loses its only real advantage against Fingerprint.
I will admit that Verdigris is useful when mind isn't leveled up and FP costs matter. It also looks nicer if you're wearing the rest of the Verdigris set.
How is it possible that you reach 250 equip load with level 150????
Winged Crystal Tear!
How is your equip load so high but your endurance is low?
Winged Crystal Tear!
Yo how you got 245.4 carry weight and only 14 endurance
Winged Crystal Tear!
This seems so boring to use but nice to have as a backup if I really give up on a boss 😂
I also have DEX and STR variants to facetank even the DLC Final Boss if you prefer here:

The Sword Lance is a huge upgrade for weapon...
What makes it such an upgrade out of interest? Thinking of smithing it up to a +10 myself.
@@jimatchoo370 it has a colossal weapon blood loss instead of a regular weapon. So it already comes w/ Seppuku.
How the hell is your equip load so high??? No Great Jar's Arsenal, and your Endurance is only 14
Looks like it's using the Physick, so you can only really fully use the build with it up. I guess you got to walk around naked/lightly armoured otherwise.
@@Ikuu Ahhh I see, missed that part. Interesting, I thought that physick just made your gear weightless but it actually just gives you a f*ck-ton of equip load lol
@@RobertMorrison-jd7yi that physick is one of my favorites. Have 100+ poise plus gear and still be light load rolling. It's just 🤌🏻
How do you have an equip load of almost 250??
Winged Crystal Tear!
When it wears off, do you just fat roll? Doesn't it last a couple min?
@@Birdsfan21 It lasts 3 minutes, enough to kill most bosses.
Hey how come I can’t use seppuko and the shield buff at the same time like you did in the video
You have to keep the Staff on a separate hand than the Shield.
You can cast Scholar's Shield first, then switch the Staff for your weapon and go for Seppuku, assuming your shield has no Ash of War.
Otherwise, you can two hand the Weapon and activate Sepukku, then one hand it to go back to equipping the buffed weapon + shield.
This work again dlc final boss?
Yes, and so does my Facetank Build here which is even easier, I showcase it vs the Final Boss here:
czcams.com/video/qv1hnuqahfk/video.html

does Mohg's spear work?
Yes, but you'll need to remove the ash of war from the shield to use Mohg's

Praise the S ... CRPG Bro, who once again come to the rescue! I was using a River of Blood Bleed Build but apparently they nerfed the f out of it and I was getting my ass kicked in the DLC ... definitely going to try this one later :) Thank you!
how are your stats so high i cant get those stats at lvl 150
Godrick's Great Rune for a +5 to everything!
If you have high STR you can also use Grafted Blade Greatsword for +5 to all for 1m before boss battles as a way of prebuffing.
This is what you’ve been up to instead of giving us pathfinder videos?!?!? 😂
Why no one talking about deflecting hard tear?
It can help but it's better for blocking with weapons rather than Shield, since for a build like this because you are always holding Block, it won't count as a "spontaneous reflect" for the Tear purposes.
How tf is your equip load so high?
Winged Crystal Tear!
Big Poise for Big Boys
Asmongold played with that build but with another weapon,. He upload a video about it.
so he give up his glass canon, dual glaives build ?, kekw =)))
You're only able to move while the flask is active? What kind of build is this lol. I don't think this was thought through.
Exactly my thoughts. I just made this build and realised i can only walk normal for 3 min as long as the flask is active. What do i do on non bosses? change the whole armor setup? and what if the flask runs out in a boss fight? hopefully it never will but that would be hilarious :D
