Someone already said this, but you really do put out kick ass Elden Ring content, dude. Like they said, I follow a lot of elder channels and lately. I’ve actually stopped watching a lot of them because they’re either just for entertainment, which is fine, but you don’t learn anything, or something redundant that every Elden ring channel has put out at least once. Your videos are truly innovative, a lot of the time. More than just innovative, though, they’re really helpful in a thoughtful way. I appreciate the hell out of your help throughout my time in this game . I used talk text for this by the way, because I’m driving, so if this is like. .

Most chargeable spell/skill will tell you in the item/spell description if it is chargeable. Usually they say smthg like, “charge the spell for more…”. Ive heard other youtubers say that godfrey icon only works if description says “charge spell for more potency or smthg”, but not if “charge spell for more lightning pillars [adls]”, which i think is misleading. Adls does benefit from godfrey icon ime, and reasonably so. While charging adls, according to desc, only increases the quantity, but not quality, of lightning pillars, there is still a charged and uncharged version. And as long as there is the former, godfrey icon will increase the quality/dmg, whether it is an increase in quality upon a previously nonexistent increase in quality (eg. adls), or a stacking increase in wuality upon a previously already existent increase in quality (eg. Night comet).
