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.

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.

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.

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!

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

Not trying to be rude but here are some suggestions to make these builds better 19. 3:04 maybe instead of ritual shield talisman, try marika’s soreseal or scarseal because of the B scaling in int 18. 4:32 try white mask instead of altered nights Calvary helm. The 10% boost after blood loss is useful for getting even more damage out of it. But you should only use it if you use bloodflame blade 17. 5:40 maybe either powerstance a cold uchigatana or run any dagger in the offhand with cold affinity. Thanks to bloodflame blade, the weapon will undo the frost proc allowing you to get another frost proc 16. 6:51 you can switch up the erdtree’s favor with Millicents prosthesis even though there is no dex scaling and you could get hit so maybe you could remove ritual sword talisman and could switch it out with lord of bloods exultation if your running it with bleed affinity or bloodflame blade. Also if you pick bleed affinity it will bring back dex scaling so there is extra damage, but it mostly isn’t worth it 15. 8:34 if you aren’t the best player, you can switch ritual sword talisman with something like starscourge heirloom or fire scorpion charm that raises fire damage if your using bloodflame blade 12. 12:52 if you aren’t the best, just try starscourge heirloom instead of ritual sword talisman 11. 14:55 use the spell blade set to get a 8% extra buff to all magic ashes and instead of ritual shield talisman try prosthesis wearer or stargazer heirloom 9. 17:35 maybe try lusat’s glintstone staff instead of carian regal scepter because of the damage boost even though there is a debuff, but I don’t think it matters because of cerulean hidden tear 9.2 19:05 instead of ritual shield talisman try marika’s soreseal because of the 5 faith boost 8. 20:14 try starscourge heirloom instead of ritual shield talisman because of the 5 strength boost, after all, the weapon does have an A scaling in strength 6. 22:34 Maybe try a flame art weapon in the offhand to undo the frost bite proc like a whip or specifically a pike with flame art 1. Instead of ritual shield talisman, try two fingers heirloom because of the B scaling in faith and the extra weapon AOW damage I really like all of the builds, some were so good I couldn’t even make them better

When i try to rebirth my character at level 150, i only have enough levels for 45 vigor with all the other stats the same for the Mohg Spear build, why do i have a lot less available levels?

i was kinda shocked when you got to the first place, it boggles my mind that 2 years later they still didn't nerf the blasphemous blade. it was a literal easy mode on game's release and it is still now, wow.
@TheKingofRedLightning6 ай бұрын
My guess is it was intended that way. To make it easier for those that needed a little extra help. Otherwise it wouldn’t been nerfed like the ROB which is kinda bad now lol
@jigsaw_31566 ай бұрын
@@TheKingofRedLightning idk if i'd put ROB even at it's peak into the same category as BB. i've played ER as a very casual souls player and i can't convey just how much it makes it an easy mode and removes the challenge component. it heals you for attacking from a distance, and it heals a lot (both flat and XP bar percentage iirc). imo you can nerf it by 30% and it'd still be of great help to novice players. i've been seriously considering replying the game before DLC comes out just cos i pretty much ruined the later half for myself by finding this sword on my first playthrough lol.
@TheKingofRedLightning6 ай бұрын
@@jigsaw_3156 lol true it is easy mode for sure. You could always go for a more challenging build for a second playthrough. Flails are fun. Square off with straight swords too. Prayerful strike is a more challenging BB, as it heals you but it’s basically a melee version. 🤘

Magma blade. The ash of war is quicker than most. Spinning slash with huge fire damage. Easiest playthrough ever. Definitely deserves top 20
@TheKingofRedLightning6 ай бұрын
Deff close to top 20 for me. The ash is good too. I do prefer 2 flaming strike bandit curved swords though for the pure faith scaling rather than split strength/faith.

I love running frost on flamberge with wild strikes so much damage. Also magma blades are insane on ng7. Also I agree with Marias executioner sword another weakness for it is if the ground is even a little unlevel most of the time you throw the sword forward into the ground especially in melenias arena.

Blasphemous blade is crazy good but becomes boring after a while
@xxboxofmuffinsxx42522 ай бұрын
Dont forget, you can summon a mimic with blasphemous blade then equip a seal afterwards with blessing of the erdtree, and erdtree heal if you really need it. Now your mimic can beat the game for you and you can enjoy the elden ring visual novel

Great video as Always !! Would have thought that wing of astel would be on the list haha , and just a Quick question isn't the clayman harpoon would be better with icespear than the gardian ? Cheers :D
@TheKingofRedLightning6 ай бұрын
Swordspear is better from my testing. It has really high AR though especially in Keen and that’s a factor too. Ice spear is tough because it scales with int, Dex & AR lol and thank you! 🤘 the wing of Astel is prob just outside my top 20. Cheers.

Would be nice to also hear a reasons why something is X place vs others. I for example don't get why Double Slash is #17 while some other builds I find... more lackluster, clunkly and less "spammable" are on higher places. For exaple Ice Spear from pure DPS perspective kills slower than Double Slash yet it's #11. But nice place to look at many builds, thanks for video!
