[@nightrain1121]

@@slimetunersis5373 I disagree, I think it should be a full feature, think of the variety it would add to gameplay, I think a good mix or dodging, jumping and deflecting in order to avoid damage would improve on the already great combat loop in this game.

It’d make blocking with weapons far more viable.

make whatever videos you feel like doing youwy. The Dragon-Hunter Great Katana is my new favorite weapon in the whole game, a charged Dragonwound Slash deals big damage, decent poise/stagger damage, and it uncludes a decent jump forward so a lot of attacks miss you, and you also get some hyper armor, it's like a jack of all trades type weapon skill. It also look sick af imo.

[@Marco1995Mega]

Deflecting Hardtear is really cool, but I'd argue you could already often hit Elden Ring bosses during wind-ups, in-between combo attacks, or by jumping over certain moves and attacking at the same time, even with colossals. It's certainly way less "turn-based" than the previous Souls games, except Sekiro.

[@dacky9018]

Viridian Hidden Tear pairs well with Cerulean Hidden Tear. The issue with Cerulean by itself when casting big spells like comet is that you actually run out of stamina before Cerulean is even over, and you waste some of its usage, but with the stamina one as well you can really spam spells. That's my take.

[@ShinxBOOM247]

The Viridian Hidden Tear seems like it was designed to compliment specific skills that are available to some of the new unique weapons in the DLC that can be repeated until you run out of stamina (stuff like Unending Dance from the Dancing Blades of Ranah or Spinning Guillotine from the Putrescense Axe), but I'm unsure how worth it that actually is in the grand scheme of things

[@knightgabriel1311]

That entire oil-soaked tear segment had me going “PAUSE” every 5 seconds

[@blehblah766]

Deflecting hard tear is really fun especially with the new great hammer. It is easy but it feels really interactive kinda like playing a normal action rpg. Does a shit ton of poise dmg :)

[@jfkwithoutj]

I love how there are unconditional tears for boosting every damn dmg type but the pure physical dmg builds have to pay 1 % HP per sec

[@JuGsa]

I guess it's because physical damage is a lot easier to come by and also a lot more flexible, as there aren't really any enemies that are significantly more resistant to physical damage then to elemental damage (except blobs) + a lot of enemies have always some elements that they are much more resistant to than to the others and physical damage, so you often need to match you weapons element and tear accordingly, while you can just chug the power within tear for every major encounter and just do really good damage regardless of weapon and build.

[@theinevitable77]

Youwy and Chrightt are the only youtubers worth watching for non-lore content. Miss Chalice for cleavage related lore. Which is the best kind of lore. Bangers everytime, keep it up man.

[@oldensad5541]

Infinite stamina is extremely useful for colossal weapon stance breaking. Usually you can swing 3 maybe 4 times, and you need to stop, just to save some stamina to dodge, and then you need to wait until it regenerates. All this leads to loosing opportunity to stance break in minimal amount of time and hits. But with new tear, you can hit several times, dodge, hit immediately after and repeat until effect is gone. It's just brutal.

[@TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

The deflecting hardtear addition is the Sekiro dlc that we deserved

[@Zaulked]

Thanks for the consistent videos, so much content can be hard to parse without stuff like this.

[@juliancamacho3837]

I was hoping this would come out today!! Thanks homie!

[@Pokemonmaster32925]

I wouldn’t write off the sapping tear straight away. If you think of it from a game dev perspective why would they in fact make the healing so crappy? It’s probably because it’s meant to stack with other healing items like the talismans or the spell beastial vitality that regens hp over time. That being said I understand wanting a more up front payoff type of tear.

[@Ima9ineBreak3r]

I didn't even know deflections were a thing. Super insightful.

[@babayaga4320]

One combo that comes to mind with the sapping cracked tear is the executioners sword. It hits so many times rapidly, I think it would be a banger combo. Usually you're using an arcane build with that sword also, so I'm thinking you could throw out a couple of dragon breath spells, pop the cracked tear, use the executioners sword, and get all your fp back.

[@MinniMaster]

It's not great (or even good) but I love using Crimson-Sapping with Bloodsucking. Other forms of passive HP regen would be better, but I love how anime it is to have a power-up that increases your damage while draining health, while also being incentivized to keep up the pressure by attacking to regain health.

[@bassforte123]

The strength of the infinite stamina tear is that you can shield while using a thrusting weapon and just keep poking the enemy without losing extra stamina you're using to protect yourself with. A bit niche to tank builds but still really nice to have against aggressive enemies.

[@Carnagath82]

I'm loving the infinite stamina tear with Relana's swords. 15 seconds of infinite stamina paired with the damage mitigation tear can get you through like 40% of boss's health, since the swords do bonkers burst dps at high stamina cost.

[@biggusgibbus8144]

I keep going back to the Blasphemous Blade. I'll use something else for bosses sometimes, but for exploring the Cerulean Dew Talisman just made it for me. I can wander around and never use a flask of anything. The BB heals my HP, and the Talisman heals my FP.

[@IamTheGoblinLord]

There is in fact a very niche use for the viridian hidden tear and it’s called the pain train: great stars with prelates charge and bloodflame blade. The only stat you need is endurance so you can charge longer so 15 seconds of unlimited stamina is great. It can completely cheese Malenia and is quite strong in pvp once you get it off

[@nicmobile]

the veridian hiden tear is actually great for a mage build. you put both the cerulean and veridian tear in your flask, and then spam spiral shard. you can kill the elden beast in like 10 seconds.

[@Joleksu]

The Viridian tear was good for the endgame invasion to eliminate one of the invaders quickly without them healing. Use any weapon that gives them a light stagger with r1 and they are stunlocked till the 15s runs out.

[@Dbonesburneraccount]

3:54 this is kinda crazy out of context😭😭 5:05 THIS IS EVEN CRAZIER☠️

[@ponsarutmahamongkonsawasde7222]

Hey mate Marais Executioner's sword with viridian hidden tear gave it more potential for burst damage. It melt boss in PVE.

[@redajun2593]

The grind you have committed to is crazy

[@SilverFoxR]

Cerulean Hidden Tear + Viridian Hidden + Ghiza's Wheel = 15 seconds of straight chainsawing without needing to stop. There are plenty of AoWs that also take stamina to use and often can be held down and used until either the FP or Stamina bar run out. This pretty much makes both useable for a long time. I mentioned Ghiza's Wheel, but how about Prelate's Charge on a Great Stars? How about doing a Lightning Ram roll?

[@Panurome]

I think the veridian hidden tear is meant for ashes that keep going until you run out of FP or stamina. Things like the Visage shield, blood blade, wild strikes etc

[@BatsBats38]

5:04 "As you can see in the gameplay over here i actually have malenia oiled up i just hit her from the back a couple of times with my fire based hammer and she just gets overwhelmed"

[@ttandari5634]

The way that Youwy always looks so serious and says the goofiest shit ever 😂😂😂

[@kupshy]

thank you for the big yap attack

[@fightedmealready2692]

So the Viridian tear pairs well with the Cerulean tear since certain spells also consume stamina. Meaning for that brief 10 second window you can infinitely cast with no restrictions

[@GoobieWoobie69]

ranking the new unique ashe's of war, and like a top 10 dlc weapons sounds like some good videos :D

[@rodo1252]

Hidden stamina tear is ironically best used alongside the hidden fp tear, so you can hold down those boss deleting spells for longer

[@eromstalin6701]

"oiled up mogh" is not a thing i was expecting to hear when i woke up this morning

[@blitzboy2934]

I’ve had no idea how the deflecting tear works, and seeing that I get to play sekiro in Elden ring is awesome

[@PaladinLeeroy42069]

There’s likely a specific use that’s really good with the infinite stamina tear. You said the backstep talisman was useless and Ongbal just released a video dodging the final boss’ triple slash (that can’t be normally rolled) by backstepping the first slash

[@BDtetra]

Deflect Tear is so good even the final boss of the DLC becomes much easier with it, since you no longer actually need to dodge roll and waste stamina but just block all of his attacks

[@Guerbleperpin]

[@TheFreakKid12]

Deflecting tear is great, im running though the dlc with no Scadutree blessing to make it more of a challenge and I'm still doing great damage because of this thing.

[@Oni_Evergarden]

The Oil one is actually really unique and cool. I don't use fire builds but really cool concept.

[@FelisImpurrator]

Ranking lifesteal and infinite stamina tears that low is wild. I mean, they're still more useful than the dried tear for the exact reason you literally just described in the dried tear review. Rather do something for too short a time than practically nothing. Lifesteal turns AOE ashes into "what if Devourer of Worlds were actually good" and stacks up ridiculously quickly with things like Blinkbolt Twinaxe, Crucible Wings, dual twinblade jumps... How is that worse than the one that barely does its job? And the stamina tear lasts just long enough that it's being used to enable cheesy strats, which is more or less exactly what you'd expect that to exist for.

[@wt891]

A top just 10-25 weapons video would be great

[@StranglerRicky]

Oil tear with flame tear, and the new perfume bottles goes absolutely insane

[@BadRedPot]

Top 5 best faith weapons in the dlc would be great. Nobody has posted it yet and im not sure if there even are more faith weapons than the sunflower, euporia and the big hammer with Radagon effect. So a list with some of them would be perfect.

[@statichammer9984]

the hidden viridian tear paired with the hidden cerulean tear allows mages to spam stars of ruin, which can be handy as an alternative to comet azur or meteor of astel on enemies that are a bit more mobile.

[@scrwny_kidd__]

Respect for getting these vids out so consistently 🫡

[@artezac]

That infinite stamina tear could make for some crazy strats on mohg paired with like spinning slash on a bleed scythe

[@GeneiJin12]

The deflecting hardtear is so good, one boss that I was completely struggling with was gaius and switching to this tear I absolutely demolished him 1st try of switching.

[@nicksuperheroart]

deflecting hardtear with a great shield + blackknight hammer carry me through the final boss of the dlc. You could pretty much deflect almost all of the boss combo if you got the timings, channel your inner sekiro.

[@noenprofile5382]

i can see infinite stamina tear work well in claws faceroll build you use poise buff ash of war, use the tear and for the next 15 seconds you're basically unstopabble and can shred down bosses hp bars like it's nothing

[@moobo3944]

I dont understand fromsofts aversion towards lifesteal. We already have the most overpowered form of healing in the crimson flasks. Bosses already 2-3 shot you so trying to heal up by attacking instead of safely retreating to sip on your juice is a huge risk and should be rewarded. You could make the crimson sapping tear 10x stronger and it still wouldn't be op

[@DEMON_SUNGOD]

Great video youwy

[@e1eventy7t]

Deflect tear does carry through the final dlc boss fight btw. Nullifies most of its damage if you time everything right.

[@monterio905]

Deflecting Hardtear went soooo crazy for me. Actually felt like thanos

[@shaonakolte]

I was a Faith caster type build, found the Sekiro tear, found the light great sword Milady early and I swear all I do in the game now is deflect like Sekiro, Whirl like the witcher.

[@lashghost]

I can see the viridian hidden tear being useful for bow builds, since spamming arrows takes a ton of stamina

[@LJK69420]

I used the deflecting hardtear against Renalla and it was a blast. It was also a lot easier as well, the Milady has a great block counter animation, it comes out fast and hits twice. It also seems to poisebreak a lot as well.

[@BoodyCheek]

I paired the Crimson-Sapping tear with Malenia's Great Rune. It'd be more appropriate if it were a talisman or something instead but I personally like it when its with Malenia's Great rune

[@wyattthealchemist]

He knew exactly what he was doing with the "Oiled up" jokes xD Im so proud of him.

[@VR00100]

Getting these tears was more difficult than how good most of them are, only Glovewart and Deflecting tears are worth the trouble.Glovewart requiring 3 furnace pots (carry atleast 1 or 2 extra incase you miss). Bloodsucking tear sounds good but unlike Dark souls 1, the bosses in this game will not give you the opportunity to take distance and heal and they can basically cover the entire area in a fraction of a second. The dlc feels like I'm playing Sekiro with the Dark souls 2 character
