[@dogs-game-too]

Nizar is the only one who can get away with this level of crazy editing. I usually hate it but I love his vids haha

[@vugarnovruzov5807]

You re the only one Im follow about OP's early. No fillers, correct information, no screaming during the video. Thanks!

[@rico7605]

I remember watching your early Elden ring builds, they were so fun and good to use. So once the dlc dropped I spent an hour trying to find your account since it’s been a year. And glad I could find it keep up the work man 💯

[@Bryce-jw3ly]

oohhh what perfect timing. Was just about to make a mage build. You rock Nizar!!

[@sepixsound]

Thanks so much for updating this series! Best Mage guide on the web!

[@UndeadAaronGames]

Excellent narration and structure, really appreciate the video and editing .

[@mathiastrzil1359]

Love the progression from the main game builds into the dlc, especially from a lore perspective for your original characters 🔥

[@bennyg07]

Honestly, I've searched for days for this video to drop! Thank you!!

[@SteveHolm89]

Just when I thought I was done with ER for this time, Nizar pulls me back in

[@heqitao]

Probably haven't said it enough, but I use your vids for almost every game I play. Thx for all the work. You are a master craftsman, and I enjoy borrowing your tools.

[@gkurl]

Thank you for no DLC spoilers - I'm currently just getting around to playing it using your Frenzy Madness build! :D The best builds by far man keep it up!

[@user-zf4qc2dt3s]

You make the best build guides...Please never stop. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@nublet-bz5qo]

amazing stuff as always

[@waleedaldoais7093]

Whats crazy is with videos like these, I’m typically skipping to what I need to see. But the amount of effort and creativity in your videos make me actually want to sit and watch first then build it. Super engaging and not over the top. Kudos to you just gained a subscriber

[@disgustor3404]

The shadow lizard wizard cracked me up. Love it!

[@GoJoeGaming]

As always amazing content 🔥 💪🏽 intelligence build got some really awesome spells this DLC. Love the thorns and putrescence spells

[@Gerwulf67]

Your videos are always the best! I am so entertained!

[@SeymaOzgurr]

amaaazing video. Helped me a lot. I was so confused, thank you! Liked and subbed!

[@alexanderhauge2636]

Thank you for making these videos. Elden ring is so massive its impossible to find out all these combinations out myself. I will try out this build.

[@rheinbrick4511]

What a great videoL thanks a lot. I was sad with my mage of the basic game. I try out your tips. Thanks again Pro !😊

[@kevinuchiha00]

It’s a very nice video man !!

[@jacquesbonhomme8198]

Hey man your builds kick ass. Used multiple of them in the base game. Thanks

[@stevefu7317]

🎉Just legendary video, the editing is perfect, love that Halloween styled fonts! And most importantly the build itself is fun and well rounded. Also recommend adding the new ghost flame ash of war to the build~

[@Logan-ey6ex]

This builds really good thank you

[@Sai-bm8hj]

Hmm didn’t think about lizard gs with carian sovereignty, nice job with being thorough in your explanations! Will def be copying this ❤

[@2000Renegade]

Love the editing, might try the build even if I'm a big sword goes bonk kind of guy...that bleed spell and the big sword aow look amazing

[@Arrowhead_Spy]

“Lizard wizard” had me dying bro 🤣

[@jakwon95]

Hey man great video! Your build guides are always fun and still pretty op and the lore is chefs kiss lol. Do you think you can make a video with dry leaf arts?

[@ogikay7056]

Great editing.

[@daeelena230]

Your builds are effective and fun!! I was looking at the new sorceries myself and really like your insights and combos for the dlc. Loved your builds for BG3 too! #gg

[@MG-lc5tv]

Great video

[@KaRmA-Klawd3]

😂 love it dude! great video !

[@_nick.._.liachnis]

I can't wait to see Rellanas Twinblade. It looks like a great weapon

[@WahaBahaOG]

thx so much

[@igorcorti6364]

Yay! My favorite ER Creator --- when will the dragon priest guide come out?

[@m.a.dmatt6689]

I had a Int/Fait build that I brought into the dlc and I say the new death, finger and spiral spells along with that staff that allows you to cast both sorcerer and incant was a fantastic addition

[@TFordD]

lol I typed in “int build Elden ring playthrough “. Now im here 😂but im glad because your an aggressive sourcer , so it can be done thank you. Good video

[@Khaliltooshort]

Ready for the Spellblade video!

[@lkboom831]

Nice edit btw

[@g.guardian8144]

Nizar GG does great videos, but had a random thought "He should make DLC versions of his get OP early builds for each class" Just sounds like something fun, A build that goes from early game to Mid/Late game then finally goes to DLC

[@martyblackmore516]

Nice ever nice some of these spells i like

[@HappyHuman-ew7en]

It’s… beautiful!!! 🥹🥹🥹

[@davidvega462]

3:24 I have a theory. I think they nerfed the hoarfrost stomp into the ground so hard…(you could even say they “stomped” it into the ground)was because they didn’t want the hoarfrost stomp and the divine beast frost stomp to be identical 🙃

[@ricardosharry8944]

Agreed it seems off

[@davidcabirta9524]

Loved the vid and the showcase! As a lvl 713 im gonna have much fun! If i want to use both ash of war what weapon do you suggest? I already have the lizard with carian sword ash

[@TerminusEst]

I think a point-blank shot from Impenetrable Thorns is the most damaging sorcery in the game now that comet azure has been nerfed

[@TFordD]

Yeah , I’m thinking about using the new staff and probably making that my only spell , and use the lizard sword/moonveil

[@kewlazzname]

Thorns is better but don't sleep on crystal torrent

[@TFordD]

@@kewlazzname oh no I’m not lol my only issue with that is the cast time , doesn’t it leave you kinda vulnerable

[@Don-000]

@@TFordDyes but thats why it has good range as well

[@LightningAlchemist13]

Oh thank God 🙏 I've been struggling as an Int player and don't know where to look

[@DevonTuck]

His other build based on night magic is not bad either. Super simple but it works. Ive actually been taking down dlc bosses with just night shard and night comet

[@Dino9474]

Ahh yes, time for my favorite build creator to begin cooking 🥘

[@heathcliff4034]

With Vanishing Spell at 6:34 if you move around while using it you pretty much teleport (it is short distance but still). It has some potential.

[@RetroSwagz23]

Can’t wait to make the great katana build

[@owenpieper8862]

i loved ur last build. looking forward to dis one tio

[@magosdominusplutos5131]

Thanks

[@przemeklisicki8741]

Finally the lizzard sword has been aknowledged for all its glory.

[@jimmystack5]

Need a build to beat the final boss. Been following your mage guides since you made the 3 pt series. I’m stuck I’m on like 120 attempts 😢

[@L1ghtn1ingStr1k3]

I appreciate the blurring sm

[@wldwpwqwdd]

THE Mage is back

[@doctorale84]

Oh man I was waiting for your int build for the DLC!!! Finally I won't be squished any more, time to flatten the other side

[@doctorale84]

Too bad we need to rebalance to faith in the DLC, I was hoping to stay fully int

[@hihi-oh9578]

I'm a bit sad your accent is gone but your english pronunciation has improved so much. And your vids are amazing as always

[@davidvega462]

THIS is what I have been waiting for. This…

[@miamimartian7]

W video but bro I’ve gotten so many builds from you I really need another updated int/fth build also the maternal staff is the int/arc and the great beyond staff is int/fth

[@nclz0]

are there any substitutions for the damage talismans? I dont think i can get them in my current playthrough

[@Kabeloaso]

Nice

[@Sameji]

Have you tried smithscript cirque with magic infusion? I've been hearing it's really hard hitting, but you'd be locked into stomp.

[@markdevlin150]

Wow these AoE spells are exactly what I wanted from a mage build. CC is a must for a squishy mage.

[@Person17011]

Let’s go!

[@MorbidGames666]

The lizard sword seems pretty good tbh

[@rinzler168]

Arigatou ... Sensei 😎

[@suopsos9502]

How did you have the cold effect and the carian sovereignty on? I cant figure it out unless it isnt possible

[@petroscardoso]

the God of mage builds has awakened

[@H0dy72]

Does going to Ymir over those bridges not bug/break some NPC stories/quest?

[@poisonedscripto2697]

What’s the name of the melee weapon you put carian sovereignty on in the beginning?

[@redoctober2k593]

A dragon build using bayles incantations and the dragon form would be super cool

[@ItaChu787pr]

There we go

[@daniloventura112]

I ran through the entire dlc at level 136 and 3 runes slots as an int build. I probably couldn't have done it if I wasn't a caster. Shard spiral for the MVP.

[@alexanderhauge2636]

What spell do you recommend for final boss of the dlc?

[@daniloventura112]

@alexanderhauge2636 : There's no easy way around radahn, especially in his second phase. I did it by using comet and shard spiral charging the comet when I had an actual openings. Lhutel the Headless is my go-to summon for this fight. Lhutel will consistently teleport to break agro and then re-engage with range attacks. This can sometimes get Radahn to run across the map to engage the summon, that when you charge the commet to land heavy hits. Lhutel can survive the entire fight provided you share in the agro. There's no cheesing this fight as a caster. Optimize for spell dmg for build. Talismans: blue scorpion charm,Godfrey icon, and Beloved Stardust. Weapon: Lusat's Glintstone staff (80 int is a must). Best of luck, you'll get'em.

[@alexanderhauge2636]

@@daniloventura112 thanks for a very nice explanation.😀 I will try my best. Currently I am a fire Knight using the fire Knight grestsword and the game is difficult but still doable. But I must admit. The last soul game I played was sekiro and the boss battles in that game gave me more feelings of Mastering the game. In elden Ring bosses for me at least Comes Down to much luck. However the level Design Story and details are incredibly. Love this game.

[@gmila84]

Excellent content, but could be in some place as a checklist, even to printscreen the video in a sorted way

[@blajx]

Oh babyyyyy

[@vandro7394]

Ngl, if Nizar just redo all of his previous builds but in DLC, I'm up to it, not even something entirely new. I'm curious to see how he will upgrade everything or most of what he already has

[@OGItachiGam3r]

How did you get 52 Poise with that armor? I only get mine to 49. Shadow Helm and then the Night Cavalry Armor..

[@joshuamathieu2174]

Is there an easier way to see everything and the weapon upgrades?

[@abdulrahmanelbadri6108]

Does bloodflame spells dmg (not blood loss) scale with int or arcane?

[@StillOnTrack]

WARNING: if you book it straight past Bonny Village, or approach the shadow castle, you'll set off an ingame event that lurches NPC quests forward. Its an invisibke line you cross. So. If you don't intend to do that don't head straight there.

[@Bao598]

Will we get an updated bow only dlc? Just asking, if you dont want to make it is ok

[@kevintreese4544]

Is the Golden Order plague doctor going to be getting an update? This DLC has so much int/faith stuff, it’s great.

[@phourniner]

Wondering about this too, the plague doctor was the build I took into the DLC, and the Death's Poker still melts, I need more!

[@WahaBahaOG]

which of the spells need faith and what level should i be for this

[@foshimmy]

Unfortunately, carian sovereignty got a shadow nerf with the latest calibration patch. You no longer get hyperarmor during the charge with greatswords. It still does insane damage and can poise through small hits

[@Exhausted_Axolotl]

Yes finally someone who realizes the power of the lizard hahaha

[@TheBleakning]

Would like to see a new bow build with all the new different bows and talismans that we got

[@RajSingh-im9jq]

Are you saying to use the sword in the right hand and the staff in the left hand?

[@brigandboy1425]

Got those two staves mixed up. The Maternal staff is int/arc. The great beyond staff is int/faith. Also, if you do decide to go int/arc for the thorns spell, the Maternal staff ends up being the best mainhand staff you can use.

[@BlackMagik12]

Not first, but not last...

[@FlynnKendall-zq2ck]

Correct

[@Jacksz5868]

Shut up

[@Dojra]

But the best.

[@SMTBilly]

The jones effect

[@davidvega462]

“If you ain’t first, you’re last.”

[@now833]

What the starting class that you’re using?

[@der_lean6955]

perfect timing lol

[@jello7281]

For FP regen, you can now craft a Lulling Branch (from cookbook after beating one of the bosses). Pro: it regenerates 150 FP pretty fast. Con: Slowly builds sleep. Depending on how high your Focus is, it'll probably induce sleep on you. Counter this with either armor that has a high focus rating, or the Clarifying Horn Charm (a +2 version is in the DLC) talisman.

[@kris_k3436]

From which boss does it drops mate, i cant find it

[@user-tl4ze2vq9i]

Will going to Yimir break any quests?

[@farch691]

do a video on rellanas twin blade pretty pls:)

[@ZEDKINDI]

Yesssssss❤

[@yevgeny3985]

Do I need Faith if I only use nuke spells?

[@pabloXDloo]

The Godfrey icon for some reason doesn't work with the new chargeable gravity spells or the divine beast ash of war, in case you are using mostly this you might want to replace it

[@FernandoCatullo]

The best

[@Jmacgames]

i heard the alexander shard doesnt actually help sorc builds... is that true?
