Elden Ring DLC PvP Invasions - Midra's Frenzy Build

SKIP BUILD: 0:12
I am honestly not to happy with this video. I always wanted to use Midra's Flame of Frenzy and it partly failed for stated reasons. The quality of the invasions suffered from this, I often had better choices available. But these first videos are also for testing purposes which is why spells and the AoW get "overused" sometimes. How else are we finding out what works and what doesn't? You shouldn't use the swords AoW on stairs, it doesn't work.

[@SZMarcos]

Even after two years, players forget so often that invaders are temporarily invincible. Never gets old!

honestly they probably never realized in the first place

they think its lag lmao

[@SZMarcos]

To be honest, conceptually it's very similar to unendurable frenzy. It kinda needs clearer advantage of some kind. They'll buff it later though (probably).

[@p1psychoticprankster]

Wouldn't count on it, if anything they'll nerf it for some reason

[@johannessmith1369]

It doesn't look like it sticks you in an annoying ending animation, so there's that at least.

[@SZMarcos]

@@johannessmith1369 true but they really should reduce madness buildup at least, and fp consumption

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Let's hope 🙂

[@Mango-cp1im]

it should have hyper armour but cant be toggled on and off as easily and just less recovery in general maybe. make it easier to backstab so theres counterplay but let it be a risk reward spell

[@SuperSlifer2010]

Yeah that Midra spell needs a buff or two. That just seems really bad for how much fp your spending and no hyper armor too.

[@thefacts4440]

frenzy always been in this weird spot i wish it had more spells or atleast make it more consistant the few we do have are kinda ass in terms of actually hitting people XD just goes all over the place

[@TheUltraBeast1]

It shouldn't build up any frenzy on the caster, seeing as it's the one frenzy spell that's not actually coming out of the casters eyes.

[@benben7667]

And the madness it builds up on you

[@voyronn]

Ok but now imagine a host and 2 phantoms ganking with that

[@ker7339]

​​@@TheUltraBeast1 It does actually come from the caster's eyes. Not the flames themselves, but the orb that produces them. I do agree it could use a buff tho. Your point could stand for that madness torch tho, as its unique skill does not in fact come from the caster

[@Someone-fv3iv]

Midras remembrance options didn’t really live up to his title of “Lord of Frenzied Flame”. His greatsword should have had that frenzied fire slash(like he had in his second phase), and his incantation also builds up madness in you too quickly for it to be worth using(on top of the fact that it doesn’t do as much damage as it should). 💀

[@virusklaxsosaur4054]

Right? Hell we should have at least gotten a way to add frenzy flames to a weapon thru incantation Not to mention but no new black flame stuff at all

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Let us just hope they buff it. I still like the AoW of the sword even if it doesn't have frenzy.

[@Mango-cp1im]

his greatsword isnt frenzy themed because its a hornsent sword not frenzy. i think they shouldve added a third item to get which could be a frenzy melee sword incantation maybe

[@Someone-fv3iv]

I AGREE SO MUCH! A way to add frenzied flame to weapons would have been such a nice touch 😭😭

[@w-raz.9277]

May chaos take the world

[@RyleyStorm]

MAY CHAOS TAKE THE WORLD!

[@soullight7003]

This weapons weapon art is one of the coolest I have ever seen the fact that it has a different animation if you pierce somebody and if you pierce the ground is fucking phenomenal I just wish it had madness build up like it did on the second phase of the Bossfight to get this weapon even though People says it doesn’t need it because the Lore says it’s supposed to suppress it the fact that the boss was able to get it to spew frenzy flames tells me that it should atleast do that.

[@jimmyballer7047]

Good to see you getting the views you deserve. I expect to see a bump in your numbers, since your videos are hilarious. NEVER edit out the cackle. It cracks me up every time.

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Thank you so much 🙂 and yes I am trying to find a good balance between cackle and silence.

[@mastercat8849]

you can use black dumpling helmet, and 2 new dlc talismans for boostin damage when someone frenzied and to boost focus - that will improve the build

[@BOA-TARDE]

What talismans?

[@mastercat8849]

@@BOA-TARDE claryfying horn charm +2, aged one's exultation. ailment talisman could be a good choice too but only if you spam madness non stop so very niche

[@LONERZ]

Man, your videos are more cinematic than ever with these new incantations, weapons, aow.

[@LONERZ]

10:49 "AHG" 😫 *Performs weapon art* *DIES* *Maniac laugh* HAHAHAHAHAHA

[@pauleynon96]

From what I can tell, the best use of midra's frenzy flame is to use it in a tight quardoor as it causes all the flames to hit the floor, and subsequently all the people in said room with you as the flames are forsed down instead of hitting the ceiling or the walls.

[@zath6425]

Something Midra's flame is very good at is stunlocking people that don't have poise, unlike unendurable it has a faster casting time and doesn't lock you in place when you end the spell. So if a pesky lightroller is giving you trouble and you have an optimized fire damage build, whip out Midra's. Also, SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER there's a new Madness exultation talisman! Stacking that with offhand frenzy seal, flame tear, flame grant me strength, golden vow, and Shabriri's woe will be insane damage.

[@cursedimageseveryday5559]

Does shabriris woe boost damage somehow?

[@Aklloll]

@@cursedimageseveryday5559 he probably meant howl of shabriri which buffs the damage you deal and take

[@zath6425]

​@@AkllollYeah that's what I meant

[@cursedimageseveryday5559]

@@zath6425 Oh right...also you could boost it even more if you use the black dumpling helmet

[@KingMaraxus]

Madding Hand also gives a damage buff when madness goes off, can stack that on too if you feel like its worth a weapon slot

[@SZMarcos]

Your last two videos have exploded a little in views, nice :)

[@Rascobasco]

This was a good watch I am looking forward to this when I buy the dlc

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

I hope you will have a lot of fun with it.

[@Chara_the_god]

As someone who uses the same spell, quick tip. Dlc added clarifying horn charm +2 which makes it more useable.

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

That is a good tip, will test how much it affects it. Maybe with infinite FP tear it could be a nice combo.

[@equestrianmidnight5619]

Man, I knew Midra’s would suck just from looking at it. Hopefully it gets something. I wish it was a little different too, it’s too similar to Unendurable Frenzy.

[@kiyingisher3290]

Well at least it looks cool

[@legatefantastic4984]

Return of the fire spahgetti lord

[@agopessimist1335]

What perfumer bottle did you use to give you that much poise? Otherwise amazing build! I agree, unendurable frenzy seems the better spell atm. Hopefully From will release a balancing patch in the next coming weeks to fix some of the DLC stuff. Edit: also, holy hell (pun intended), Greatsword of Damnation may not be the best dlc weapon out there, but damn (pun intended), it’s Ash of War is so freaking cool to pull off!

[@Prophet_of_gecko_jesus0001]

[@dogmat8733]

A good pro of Midra’s Incant is that it is probably the most terrifying looking Spell in the game. Heck half the time the lack of armor is a non issue because they just run away from it.

[@thebungler8150]

Thanks, I didn't know this - amazing!

[@KnightOfCarim2]

Have you tried any madness build around the new ailment talisman yet? it might have potential

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

I will, that is for sure 🙂 not having every item yet!

[@TheUltraBeast1]

Cool, next you should try being a depraved perfumer it's really strong for invasions. The perfumer talisman boosts the dlc weapon perfumes and the ax talisman will also boost the charge attacks. I recommend the deadly poison and flame ones

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Thanks for the suggestion, it is noted, but Perfumer is not what I had on my list for next builds. I have at least 2 builds I really want to play before anything else 🙂

[@reunarudoqiyan6752]

What fear and respect an invader can give, I hope I never cross paths with you.

[@JustMiluna]

This it's crazy!

[@SaucyKakes]

You should use the Maddening Hand too! It has a disgusting combo with an instant madness proc with the ash into a charged R2

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Now now, this is just one of many builds to come, I want to test and play so much but time is a factor 🙂 I was actually considering it but I wanted to go full Midra.

[@user-ru7tt5jp9v]

1:32 wow That was fantastic

[@ObsidianChariot]

Y'all do realize that the insane madness buildup is for a reason right? It pairs perfectly with both howl of shabriri and the new madness exultation talisman. You can get a 45% damage increase for 20 seconds just by triggering on yourself as well as using howl.

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Yes and no, my imagination is to walk into the room raining down madness on 3 enemies and in this case it wouldn't be to helpful to get procced. I also wear the armor with high focus on purpose.

[@nickstoneham5629]

Honestly, I was hoping we would get Midra's big phase 2 AoE like we got with Melenia's Scarlet of Aeonia. Was also hoping we could get his torn, wispy robes and the Frenzy Flame void as a head piece. Love the boss fight, but I found the rewards to be a little underwhelming as far as a frenzy build goes. His sword isn't even frenzy related.

[@Whiteobamas]

1:30 oh my god you executed him

[@OverpoweredDucks]

Might I suggest trying Ancient Meteoric Ore Sword? Very particular stat setup, but it has some obscene scaling. I can hit anywhere from 700-900s and I only have 56 str/30 arc on a 150 character.

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

It would fit the build but it is "old" - I really wanted to try out Midra's sword, in the end this is a Midra themed build 🙂

[@043Tarzan]

This is wild. Perfumer invasions next?

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Not next, but definitely happening.

[@StuckTrippin]

Invading is super fun but i burn through consumables. Is there a real good way to farm mats for the perfume or does everybody just dupe now?

[@HDGaminTutorials]

Everybody save dupes but I play on Xbox and can't so I'm sol to

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Many do it the "easy" way, I don't which of course is a disadvantage but I rather have a disadvantage than to use cheap third party programs.

[@QuaseemS]

3:30 “SIR, ILL TAKE CARE OF THIS GUY MYSELF”

[@Deathy067]

What level are u at and how are u able to switch to other build easily with the same stats?

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

It shows my exact build always at the start of my videos. I play mostly at RL 150. I don't have the same stats, I already used 3 Larval Tears since release. 🙂

[@sneakysteiny7650]

11:48 Best madness clip I’ve ever seen

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Lucky then since I actually considered cutting it out🙂

[@chancecomic1595]

While I still think the Greatsword of Damnation is a bit disappointing (Personally, I think it maybe should have been a Light Greatsword and had madness build up, and I wish its strong attack could flare the barbs out like Midra does), you've really shown how strong, effective, and cool that weapon art is. I did not realise how well it works for single targets and for covering a surprisingly wide area

[@pelinial]

amazing

[@thetempis7333]

It’s alright, I find on a faith/arcane build it shines better

[@korbingabriel3499]

Does Frenzy Flame and Erdtree Seal stack?

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Erdtree Seal for the best incant scaling and Frenzy Seal for the bonus to damage.

[@leonardocarrion1996]

7:34 that was sick

[@ahmadalfroukh8772]

why do you not use 2 frenzied seals?wouldnt it buff ur frenzy spells more?

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

No it wouldn't. The scaling on Frenzied Flame Seal is horrible, the 20% don't make up for that. at lvl 300 it would make sense.

[@ahmadalfroukh8772]

Ah ok ty

[@_erkku]

why the erdtree seal? also why the claws?

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Because the Erdtree Seal has a better scaling than the Frenzied Flame Seal. At higher levels where you can have high statinvestment in the 4 scaling stats of the Frenzied Seal you can wear 2 of them, but at lvl 150 Erdtree + Frenzied off hand makes most sense.

[@andreybelyshev5093]

Nananyas torch has a very simmilar skill to the spell

[@JuniYT]

That f king greatsword is godlike

[@Insurgency_Raider]

Midra Flame of Frenzy should really take a page outta the Convergence mod and just make it an eye-of-frenzy You summon it once, get a huge madness and FP penalty and the Frenzy eye just stays and tracks enemies and spews its rain.

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

Sounds like a good idea, then it also would differ from unendurable.

[@Nightmare026]

Great to see Magic being so good on this game

[@gugg2216]

After 2 years.... ANOTHER POKE GREATSWORD

[@themorbidkid187]

One thing id say to make this build better, I see you have warming stones on, however if you become a frenzy lord, you can use frenzy stones instead of warming stones and they will heal you but give frenzy to anyone who is not a frenzied lord graced by the three fingers. May chaos guide your blade, and frenzied flame consume your enemies!

[@rabbitsinthemoon9183]

As soon as you enter NG+ you have to do the whole quest again to be able to enjoy the frenzy stones, this is why I am not using them in the video cause you are right, they are indeed much better.
