Cave invasion: 999/1000 invaders would lose in that tight cave gank setup. Absolutely incredible work there.

[@JohnDarksoul69]

He really is a good player. I wouldn't even be mad if he invaded and killed me with such grace lmao. Completely unfazed by Moonveil and RoB spammers as well.

[@krakenwarrior3237]

Some insane fights in this one! Crystal cave 3v1 was so intense, loved it

[@JojenReed]

I counted at least 3 times where I would have died lmao he just WINS though

Solaire?????? It’s been a very long time dude

[@Basidus258]

Faith builds like this are great due to their weapon variety and versatility as well as the damage you can damage you can achieve. A clear example is St Trina's torch, it would be perfect for this build

[@caelenhill948]

They had us in the first half ngl

[@TimothyGod]

This is still going on.... Get new material. Torch isn't funny

[@echopeeps6805]

​@@TimothyGod haters mad St. Trina can experience childlike wonder and whimsy

[@TimothyGod]

@@echopeeps6805 I can also, but it's been almost 2 years.... We get it "haha funny torch meme"

[@KokaKolaMusic]

​@@TimothyGod Whoa whoa whoa who tf is recommending using the garbage weapon that is Torch? We want to see the enlightened, unique, and mesmerizing weapon that is called St. Trina's Torch. Show that name some goddamn respect.

[@Rain1dog]

Outstanding battle in the cave. The ability you have to hot swap is second to none.

[@gusriojas2600]

For real. I know he's got shortcuts and his inventory sorted the way he prefers but goddamn I'm swapping shit out at 1/4 of the speed fumbling like hell in invasions

[@TrainingWithBrianYT]

Is that what he does?? I didnt even know u could do that wtf@@gusriojas2600

[@Do0mSl4yer95]

​@@gusriojas2600 You gotta know your inventory and keep your items at a low but manageable amount. It's cool but I picked up WAY too many weapons to swap during a fight 😅 Id have sell everything but what im planning to use.

[@Wangpi3ce]

@@Do0mSl4yer95 you can store all of your items at bonfires, so whenever you want to switch loadouts it can be done in a few minutes. I couldnt even learn to swap without using the storage system!

[@temphy]

​@@Do0mSl4yer95Go to a grace and do sort chest. You don't have to sell stuff to get it out of your inventory :)

Wizards mentioned at least 10 times: 01:46 Because we do fight a lot of Wizards 02:40 Might get hit by the Wizardry 02:46 A Wizard here 02:51 Hey Wizard 03:13 I thought the Wizard jumped into it. Hey Wizard 03:26 This time the Wizard escaped me 05:31 There is a Wizard behind us though, there is also a real Wizard 07:30 The Wizard's gonna keep playing the same Since I started counting there were 2290.7 mentionings of Wizards across 187 videos.

8:44 that double flaming strike is genius!

My absolute Go To for every Soulsgame. Str/Faith Knight. It's like plot armor as a stat.

[@ozymandias199]

That cave invasion is why chase is the best

[@Lonelyskydiver6]

If you haven't you should do an imp based build using the imp weapons from the catacombs using the imp statue heads along with throwing daggers and pots think it would be nice, keep up the great vods :)

[@grilledleeks6514]

4:56 this entire invasion was very well played. You are a machine

[@requiemslullaby3657]

St. Trina is the most faithful and pure swordswoman.

[@JosiahCone]

Until he isn't. Beware the most fearsome Emperean.

[@markdeckard7651]

11:30 lightsaber battle so epic even moms are talking about it

[@andrewkoalska1401]

Started playing again after a good break, and so glad I found your build vids are still coming! Thanks for the content Chase, good stuff as always

[@Skelyos]

I have a feeling the hosts always rushing you down is due to them having more heals & the opposite for the sun-bros? They think "I can just face tank him & heal it later" but they never account for the amount of damage or their lack of vigor

[@kirbyscreativity]

Oh shit another video? This man is an absolute goat. Thanks for the videos. Always so interesting Also to answer your question at 2:55 you cannot parry it. Bummer lol

[@Sauspreme]

that 3 man gank fight was so clutch! good job man! I believe my character ended at like lvl 160. So when ther DLC comes out, thats where I'll be. but I may do a new playthrough because it's been a while. So I may be late to the party anyway

[@croft.]

2:12 It is said that rainbow stones were once used to entertain children on the fringes of the landsbetween

[@aadynfinchum9437]

I can't wait for the Pure Sleep Torchman, using St. Trina's Torch, of course.

[@thundertower]

I'm glad the elden ring build yt community is still active😂. Haven't played for more than a year now and these videos are making me itch to play the game again

[@nicolasvillasecaali7662]

You make a build fueled with faith to smite the opposition Chase, but i raise you a challenge of absolute maddening levels: fit a build capable to use all the madness themed items, that's right EVEN THE STONE SLAB! Really enjoy your videos mate, keep up the amazing work.

[@NoOne-fo1di]

Lol ive watched you for a few years and never cease to be amazed at your gear swapping for heals and buffs.

[@paulocarvalho6480]

The double kill at the top of the stairs with black flame tornado really caught them by surprise. But the best invasion is the one right after, at 4:55. That was an amazing and sweaty one. Very well earned victory.

[@baltorh2479]

I love those video it's nice to see all the different builds possible for PVP but I need a compilation of ChaseThebro losing fights.

[@rogue5098]

nice! i just switched over to a faith build. Cant wait to try out some of these ashes of war and weapons

[@user-tr4pf8gn8m]

I know that you will try many builds in the DLC, so your first one should be lower level, and you should do a level up thru PvP in the DLC.

[@goober2946]

Love your videos man

[@paradigm2266]

Hey Chase, this is your 24 hour reminder to upgrade that second Coded Sword

[@gabrielarciniega2836]

New sub here, glad to say I've been enjoying the content

[@jesusbravo3797]

This man pumping out videos

[@Ekkaisara]

Golden Land as an AOW has some of the best hyper armor. On the zweihander ive managed to hyper armor other UGS r1 attacks. You also get 4 different hits and can easily rack up over 2k damage if the full thing hits, which i think you could do. That and it adds projectiles which is awesome. Plus its just a really fun AOW

[@Littlesaintfortnite]

❤ *I love Faith The Bro!* ❤

[@user-ni4yd9rj6d]

Someone’s going around giving you a bad wrap haha. Fighting a mean guy with your name. No way could it be you haha. Love you content bud!

I have pure faith for an St. Trina Torch Video next

[@EQUAL1Z3R-FPS]

love the vidz wondering if you could do a max lvl mix build where you try to use more then build so kinda like bleed then you change to strength ect

[@Brian-IZK]

Holy that 3v1… gg chase

[@chrisofthehoovers4055]

That one in the cave made my but pucker way to many times lol. I've recently tried doing some low level invasions at around RL 45 and it was pretty active. Tones of fun with a poison build.

[@dreammatter1734]

What upgrades are you using on your lvl 45 invader? I love low lvl invasions

[@chrisofthehoovers4055]

@@dreammatter1734 I think my highest level weapon is level 9 or 10, not sure but I know you can invade 2 levels up and 2 levels down for weapons. Sombers are where I struggle with the math lol.

[@MauricioOsuna-et8et]

Ayoo 😂 Great time for a HOLY CRUSADE! 🙏⛪

[@Zeus-gf3vh]

I just started a new playthrough for the DLC. Going with faith for incants and dex for Nagakiba with bloodflame blade for the extra bloodloss

[@Crit-Multiplier]

blackflame protection states that it reduces the effect of other healing efffects aswell. thus it should make your hp regen worse.

[@leonardo9259]

It doesn't, it just affects estus

[@necrolios4640]

Feel like it was chase who destroyed me in coliseum's i seen the insta switch to armor and had a feeling!

[@alexander_soul]

2:25 Vigor check :)

[@ghlegend195]

I like how this video has chapters

[@OD91MJ]

I am thinking of going into at 150. But I am enjoying my 200 Int/Faith build. I hope we get DLC soon. Enemy level in Consecrated snowfields was pretty high so I wonder how much more difficult the DLC will be.

[@Yourbluetoothdeviceispairing]

Hi Chase! I recently saw a video talking about how underrated the Grafted Dragon is! It’s special attack, Bear Witness!, is also really cool and has a nice AoE. Might be worth checking out!

[@johndang897]

Surely great heal and lightning spear

[@Chwiztid]

Can we see a 70 70 FTH INT build? Golden order seal gets to over 370 and then of course the corresponding seals in the off hand for all the bonuses.

[@Dan_d00d]

Fighting Griff in the mountaintops, as the fashion love child of you and Lost was quite funny. When his bro was defeated you forgot to say - Your friend is dead. I killed your friend. ;)

[@Zoesie.]

I’m going to stick with my 150 frost/int character. Not having flame cleanse me is could be rough though. DLC hype!!!

[@bearsbrawn]

You never get that cave! That was fun!!!

[@illynn]

i wondered if chase is ever stoned in his vids since he’s so chill and lives in CO i think

[@kiltysalter2966]

I reckon start at 139 and level up as you go capping at 175 maybe - depending on how big the DLC is. I reckon that will catch the most pvp. We’ll see i guess. I’ll probably do a casual run-through on my completionist character to find all the new stuff, before updating my pvp builds with the specific gear that I find. When it drops, did you want us to point out if we find interesting weapons and gear, or would you prefer to not be spoiled? Also, you should probably move that parry shield in your inventory. You’ve accidentally swapped to it more times than I can count now. Catch ya next time!

[@ChaseTheBro]

I personally find it the most fun on launch when the community shares info together! I absolutely loved everyone, jumping into the game, trying to find hidden areas etc when it launched and sharing all the secrets they found together. I usually try not to spoil bosses or main storyline etc, but Illusory walls and cool weapon locations that i may have missed i definitely dont mind spoiled haha

[@rogertarmen5596]

Chase i want to make a cosplay build of Hero from dragonquest do you have any recommendations? I want it to be viable for PVP as well as PVE, id love your input. Always loving the faith content

[@burns0100]

I wish faith had more natural scaling weapons that aren’t greatswords or straight swords. More variety wouldn’t hurt. I enough using unique weapons over ones you can infuse.

[@justice214]

I’m currently in the middle of journey 2 and I’m almost at level 200. I think that’s where I’m going to go into the dlc at.

[@jackie_lynn69]

ooh, how about another leveling up through pvp series for Shadow of the Erdtree? but like, starting at RL90

[@PaintFire_]

Hey chase, do you have any plans to do a collab with lost/prod/fighterPL? I kind of am getting nostalgia and missing the ol' days in ds3 when ye would do coop hosting against invaders or modded pve playthroughs :)

[@lapushka9388]

I always get stunned when I do black flame tornado...

yes, i will be streaming daily once the dlc is released. Probably before hand to run a new character through in preparation of the dlc.

I never really start with a particular build in mind, too many good choices but I think I always end up a quality build at the end of the day.

[@elachhabyoussef8440]

Hello guys can someone explain why he has more than two copies of the same weapon and why there is too much maxed weapon on his save

[@Ryphel]

Suggestion for something to try for you... again. Try invading at lvl ~60-70 BONUS POINT if you use actual gear from around that lvl things you find around Liurnia and Caelid, but nothing from Altus and further could be interesting

[@Sam-rb1id]

You should watch the 'level up from invasions only' series.

[@ghostering8]

Dude you should check his "level up from invasion only" lol

[@user-tr4pf8gn8m]

Try letting go with your right hand and using the dpad with it.

[@nagsorinaste5658]

Hosts have more flasks, rune arc effects, up too 2 buddies and blues as support and yet chase still manages to beat them on his own making it look easy. Man your pvp skills are beyond absolutely insane.

[@SinFromOmega]

Golden Order Sword maybe? sometimes? pls?

[@valentai_777]

Did chase get a new mic? Sounds good

[@ChaseTheBro]

I have actually been playing around with my audio, no new mic but I tried to set the gain etc better for audio balance! Glad to hear it sounds better!

[@infinitepotato001]

Quick question: why do you never use Golden vow? It stacks with blackflame's protection.

[@ChaseTheBro]

I personally forget to even use the 1 or 2 buffs i already have on my builds. Adding more would just be useless for me personally lmfao

[@iamtheone946]

🎉

[@CrazyKevin1231]

I cant find anyone at rl 125. How long does it take you to invade? For me the entire map has red and blue circles but i never get any action.

[@user-tr4pf8gn8m]

Try reloading your save file from the main menu. If that doesn't work try alternating between your invasion items to bypass the attempt cooldown.

[@nathanperez8712]

imma start the dlc at 150 or 168

[@azasukiri]

does anyone know how he always have full of +25 items and 99 consumables? does he grind for it or using some cheats?

[@Shurmash]

I feel like briar spells should be incantations instead of spells. They feel like voodoo to me versus glintstone magic.

[@JMStheKing]

Has he ever done a no ash/spell/incant build? probably not possible, but i somehow think he could pull it off

[@ghostering8]

"Levels up from invasion only" he do some but it had vs gang without Ash of war anyway 😂

[@kenweed6919]

Just the tip!

[@graybust8556]

the inv at 5min was rough. Chase true weakness = Directions. May as well call yourself Zoro at this point 😂

[@evangonzalez9487]

Would love to see a similar 139 build used with some offensive incantations/pyromancy. Something similar to your previous pyro hybrid build mixed with this one would be amazing in invasions.

[@andrewang2116]

Sirs, what greatbow has the knockback/knockdown effect? Or is it the ammunition? Of its the great arrow, what is the name of the arrow?

[@user-tr4pf8gn8m]

It's the ammunition. I think it's the golem arrows.

[@user-tr4pf8gn8m]

You can also use lightning great arrows in water for aoe. There's also a exploding great bolts and lightning great bolts for ballista and canon

[@uba9107]

Hey Chase ❤

[@S4B3R117]

I would be interested to see whether or not the Dragon Greatshield (?) talisman has more impact on your survivability (tanky-ness?) than the ritual shield, even counting hot-swapping them for combo damage or w/e

[@Chickenchokersupreme]

Dragoncrest greatshield talisman is significantly weaker in PvP, only raising physical damage negation by 5% (as opposed to 20% in PvE)

[@caelenhill948]

@@Chickenchokersupreme it was nerfed that heavily? Holy shit, I hadn't used it in quite a while, so I didn't remember this at all

[@JDuB0417]

[@Rio_Aus]

To this point. Gankers is all I see. Well, I guess I'm doing PvE.

[@EdgarLadrak]

3:00 I don't really understand why but this thing happened many Times. Why do 't you take bleed/frostbite damage ?

[@Wraggle3000]

If you dodge a status effect and it almost hits you it'll still proc but wont do any damage because of the roll s.

[@ChaseTheBro]

It as wraggler4377 mentioned above. It’s really unfortunate because it both buffs and nerfs status effect weapons. Ideally no build up at all would happen when you dodge because that’s punishing the player for dodging correctly. On the other side though you can completely dodge the damage of the status buildup because of this. Unfortunately you still get stunned out of your dodge though so it still punishes the player for dodging correctly and can get you blendered by a team
