Something to note with the Prelate's inferno Crozier, is that the one specifically found by killing the Prelate in Fort Laledd seems to be a guaranteed drop as I have defeated that enemy with around 5 characters and got it the first time which is far too unlikely to be the case if it was randomized.

I killed the sentinel from range, shooting him with my crossbow to get him to continuously fall off the wall he patrols, and he’d keep teleporting back up to it. When he finally died I immediately got his staff and was able to pick up another that he dropped on the ground.

You completely missed the most important part of the Trolls Hammer: It CAN be buffed with grease or spells despite having split scaling and not being able to change it ash of war. It can easily be one of the most damaging weapons in the category. It ironically can be good with blood flame blade because of its expiating fire damage. I like to use it as the main hand weapon on colossal jump attack build because it can be buffed. Then you put a strong not-buffable colossal weapon in the other hand.

Axe of Godfrey is also very useful in PVP in the case your opponent is hiding behind a shield and poking you from behind it. The stomp after the roar also launches them in the air so it’s great for potential one shots. Speaking from personal use. Wish I knew Godfrey icon was useless beforehand though

they became my main build since facing Commander Niall...none of my previous weapons (mostly halberds and curved greatswords) were able to interrupt the frost windup of the banished knights (mainly the one with two swords whose attacks would oneshot me constantly) but the Golem's Halberds did that and they trivialised these fuckers from then on. Been using two of them with frost and they hit like trucks...their range and how cool they look is what really made me prefere them over all the other collosal weapons even into NG+ when I had two of every one

Trolls hammer is also buffable. This makes it good for a faith strength build as you can use electrify armament to give it 3 damage types, or you can buff the fire damage with bloodflame or black blade. And even though the faith scaling isn’t high, it’s still there meaning your still getting dual use out of your faith stat. Pair it with the clawmark seal or you could go full strength and use greases. Fire physik and charm also boost the damage

Colossal Axes should be a separate category with different animations especially for the dodge attack cause currently the awful hammer animations make them so so bad, If stuff like axe of godfrey just had a slash after dodging instead of that abysmal stabbing your own feet which is never useful they it would be able to be such a fun weapon, As is there just isn't any good colossal axes especially ones that look good. Was devastated when I fully upgraded that Godfreys axe just to find out its got an abysmal attack animation and very little damage for how slow it is which sucks as its the best looking colossal weapon and best looking axe by far.

As always great video, but I believe you forgot to mention one thing about Troll's Hammer. It can be buffed just like the great club. This makes it possibly one of the best weapons for buffing because it already has fire damage and can get another type of damage on top of it. I would actually recommend using it with Beast Claw seal and then try to fit all type of weapon buffs you can have so you can adapt to your environment. Also to have free fire damage is amazing from a PvE stand point since it can stun lock a variety of enemies.

I then obliterate bosses and everything else using jump attacks with L1 which duel slams both Greatswords.

For my own reference: Great Club w/ Faith investment looks interesting if I want to do another Faith-based build, though for the moment I'm drawn to other types of builds, especially since so much of the late game resists holy. Watchdog's Staff is quite cool, didn't even know this weapon existed. Seems very versatile without much stat investment, and I like the idea of dual-wielding with Dragon Greatclaw. Seems like it may not be the best for NG++ and beyond but if I only wanted to go to NG+ I'd be very interested to try this and see how far past that I can get. Rotten Staff seems like a bad joke on the part of the developers, but the prospect of dual-wielding with Rotten Axe is interesting, possibly making up for the Axe's shorter range. In general two Rotten Axe's with poison infusion ( eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Ash+of+War:+Poisonous+Mist ) looked to me to be among the most promising of these build options for NG++ and beyond because of the % health damage. Not overly impressed with Ghiza's Wheel having a near-useless Ash of War, but the bleed buildup could be quite promising. The weapon certainly looks threatening, aesthetically. I like the idea of pairing it with the jellyfish shield. Golem's Halberd + greatshield is the build that speaks to me the most naturally, being a non-unique weapon I can buff however I like and still maintaining the "standard" playstyle of weapon with shield. The fact I can get it early means I can likely use this in place of some late game weapon until it drops, and it looks as though I'll even have options to still use it in later playthroughs. While it may not be the most exciting option this kind of weapon is usually my favorite simply due to how much flexibility it affords me. Yet another bad joke from Fromsoft that Prelate's is somehow not a unique weapon where giant random hobo stick Great Club is. While Prelate has a lot of options I'm not overly drawn to any one of them in particular, but it's something good to keep in mind. In summary: Golem's Halbert + greatshield for early build, has options late game and NG+. Dual Rotten Axe with poison infusions is what I'd like to try the most for NG++, can possibly fit a Rotten Staff in for NG or NG+ where I may not have a second poison infusion. Ghiza's Wheel + jellyfish is a unique build featuring a cool weapon, and has this famous bleed damage I hear is all the rage these days. Watchdog's Staff + Dragon Greatclaw is another unique build featuring two cool weapons with more versatility in damage types but may fall off the later the game goes.

Using giant crusher to beat malenia, I found something really funny. If you have the two handed talisman, the claw talisman, cragblade, and some decent strength, you can kinda crit-lock malenia. If you break her stance and get the riposte, immediately do a fully charged heavy, she'll fall flat on her face and then follow it up with a heavy jump attack, her stance will break again, ready for another riposte, however you need an ungodly ammount of stamina to even riposte her again

Colossal weapons are indeed the best weapons at least for me. The rest of the weapons dont allow for such favorable traits and you have to evade too many attacks and your retaliation is minuscule whereas with a big badass weapon each strike is always significant towards taking out the boss. Plus mobs even some of the bigger ones are staggered for quite some time leaving them no room for retaliation.

If I'm not mistaken I think the Giant Crusher has a hidden effect where it deals more damage to Giant enemies.

Fellas, I stand and swear by the Great Club, in terms of utility and absolute style. It is THE perfect weapon for a Tree Sentinel build, because of what it does and how it looks. I made a 125 build in which I can actually wear full sentinel armor, plus the Great Club, plus the Erdtree Greatbow, AND the Erdtree's Greatshield. It is as glorious as it is wooden and golden :D

I'm rather fond of the falling star beast jaw and dragon greatclaw/golems halberd dual wielding, fallingstar beast jaw has a really good ash of war, great damage potential and if you go golems halberd I like to go frost damage for enemies with a lot of health and you can throw on a decent ash of war to swap to as an alternative to gravity

Last night I beat the final boss for the first time with the Godslayer's Greatsword. Theme appropriate, it was the only weapon I wanted to use during that fight, even though I have never in any of these games wielded colossal weapons, greatswords being the largest. I was worried I wouldn't get the timings right, but I took to it surprisingly quickly and love it a lot now! I will definitely look into using other great weapons like that thanks to this experience and I'm curious to see what other weapons might peak my interest in this video.

STR builds take a little bit of investment to really get going, since they don't apply status like DEX builds, but once they get going, you will Believe in Bonk. It feels amazing to just say "HULK SMASH" and flatten everything you come across. Timing against bosses, however, can truly be a pain, and some of them barely leave enough time for a colossal weapon to punish an opening.

High reach makes golems halberd actually very nice with ashes most ashes, lions claw hits further away, follow up heavies (my preference being trolls roar) also can have more reach then the ash of war you used so it can help catch out people and enemies from further back that aren't ready to avoid it.

I know the Godskin Swaddling Cloth is pretty bad but using it on the Ghiza's Wheel is actually really effective. You'll essentially get a heal off of almost every one handed Charged R2. I've been usingbit with the Winged Sword Insignia (don't have the Rotten or Prosthesis yet) Godskin Swaddling and Lord of Blood Exultation (which also procs incredibly easily since it's incredibly easy to make enemies bleed with a Charged R2). It's doing big numbers with a lil healing to compensate for taking hits.

Collosals hammers/axes are useless until mid game. Then fall off hard again since you can’t catch up to the hyper mobile bosses, can’t poise a boss and will lose every trade with a boss anyways. In pvp, things are worse. You will literally, and I mean literally, lose a trade to a katana rolling r1. I would know. The damage is terrible. The only collosal that can reliably 3-4 shot meta builds is the avatar staff... and you’ll still lose the trade against epee/stitcher pokes. And golden halberd will do more damage than avatar staff without any draw backs. The physical act of missing with a collosal is a free rolling attack for most weapon classes. So you get cut to ribbons and still don’t do worth while damage when you land a hit. Even if collosals got a 40% damage buff to make them as good as ds3, they’d still suck. Also not only is every attack a free rolling attack but also a free jump attack. They can keep kamikaze diving you and still win the trade if they screw up. And hyper armor no longer covers from your first attack. So if you miss an attack as bait for a second swing, their rolling/running attack (highest poise damage attacks after jumps) will break your poise. I would fix them with 20-40% damage buff and faster hyper armor. And nerf the hell out of power stanced weapons and jump attacks which are the real problem. Jumps don’t deserve i frames. Jumps should get instability damage (obviously!) and worse tracking

@@shmekelfreckles8157 good luck hitting Beast clergy man. Elden beast seems weak to blunt so it felt good even with holy damage and I get holy resistance of my own through buffs... but chasing him still sucked and misses were demoralizing. Every poise break their poise resistance gets stronger too so you won’t poise break bosses at all second phase when you need it most. Godfrey/Malenia/Mohg move around a lot and will win trades and one combo you if they catch you in recovery and out of stamina. Malenia is fun, you gotta play smart and she is one of the few that actually react to a giant hammer smack. But the other two won’t even flinch unless it’s a stance break and malenia can get super armor out of nowhere while your mid swing and low stamina And katana will still out damage collosal in pve. Bleed racks up fast until second phase. Constant pressure on the poise breaks/damage/bleed will leave katana more efficient with the same skill as a collosal. Oh and katana ashes beat out collosal ashes in many but not all cases. Basically collosal has low damage and leaves you wide open to counters while katana lets you zip around for more damage and status. You’ll never stam out while using katana and rolling. There’s a reason NOBODY plays collosal unless their crouch poking or have a fun-to-spam L2.
