[@reedstone2510]

I’m new to Elden ring and love your channel, is that purple armor in the thumbnail a real set?

[@AverageGamerMatt]

Thanks! And the sets are real but the purple color I think it’s a mix of the thumbnail color + the ash of war on Rellana’s weapons.

[@reedstone2510]

@@AverageGamerMatt gotcha really cool vid this has me excited for dlc but I have a lot to tackle before I get to dlc lol

[@eldenring-yk9ku]

what can i use instead of scorpian charm? i already burnt the erdtree so i cant talk to seluvis or nepheli loux

[@midasandre]

you can use perfect fine the frost-parfuem bottle as a offhand for the starline sword...

[@taeritaeri7503]

In your opinion, which of your current builds for the twin blades (balanced int/faith, dex/faith, int, etc.) performs the best? thanks for the builds! :)

[@AverageGamerMatt]

Balanced for sure! 🤘

[@astryzi]

You need to try the Bloodfiend’s Blood Arm with crag blade in blood affinity, it absolutely recked the last boss, I ran lord of bloods exultation with axe talisman and two handed sword talisman, it is a very fun and consistent build

[@AverageGamerMatt]

Nice! I’ll try it soon 🤘

[@astryzi]

@@AverageGamerMatt Nice, it poise broke the final boss with 3 charged heavy’s and scales B in Arcane giving it 200+ blood loss build up

thanks so much i beat the DLC with your build

[@Jammedbooch]

Alternative to magic scorpion charm for the star lined sword??

[@lenny792]

A defensive option like the great jar arsenal, dragoncrest greatshield or ritual shield would be a very good idea. I find that this build lacks a bit in resiliency.

[@zionsama3004]

W builds, I'm definitly gonna try some of those. Btw I wondered, do you think Rellana's twinblade is playable in a quality build and by boosting successive attacks ? I tried it a little and the dmg seems insane

[@AverageGamerMatt]

Absolutely! 💯 I just love the ash of war. It’s awesome 🤘

[@DubbleLime]

By the way, by the way. By the way? By the way!

[@Jgrimzy]

What did you use as your base? You’ve definitely changed it from what you used to use.

[@AverageGamerMatt]

This one was samurai I believe! 🤘

[@nephorium6160]

Is it viable to run the Rellana twin blade on 60 in and primarily use the slash attack?

[@AverageGamerMatt]

Yes! But the main attacks scale well with Dexterity. 🤘

[@icegaming2286]

I ain’t sub to you till just now and I just came back to elden ring but you have been a LIFESAVER with these builds 😮‍💨

Haha sweet! Happy to help 🤘

[@ritzbitzx]

Is star lined sword build or your backhand blade build stronger?

[@AverageGamerMatt]

I have a really OP one for backhand blades in blood tomorrow most likely. That will be best. 🤘

[@DaPotato-BrawlStars]

Wouldn’t it be better to use rotten-winged sword insignia on star-lined sword build?

[@AverageGamerMatt]

Yep! I’m on NG so just have 1.

[@DaPotato-BrawlStars]

@@AverageGamerMatt Thanks for the quick response, excited to rock the new build!

[@peterchestnut5297]

I heard that the damage from the ash of war of the star line sword is 100 percent physical. Is that wrong?

[@AverageGamerMatt]

From my testing it’s both magic & physical damage. But it’s also early, so a lot of stuff will have to be done with math lol I tried it at higher Dex though, and did better with split stats.

[@skuzi7897]

Idk if it’s been said but for the first weapon you should replace lord of bloods exaltation for Godfrey icon since you can charge it

[@YooNextTuesday]

You want that bonus blood damage proc, since it's a katana and those things proc bleed so easily

[@nicktav4]

top 5 dex weapons and one other one

[@anthonyroberts9984]

Adding the frenzyflame perfume bottle to the Rellana's Twinblade build would be a nice alt weapon. I haven't beat the boss yet but I'm running it with the sword of night and flame and it's seriously OP.

[@joemoe1560]

I really want to use the twinblades and star lined swords in one build. I'm not sure about the best stat spread. Should i just thug it out with your balances twinblade build from this video, or my other idea is to use your int focused twinblade build from the other video. I have a question though. Is there any reason why one of the builds has 21 mind and the other has 22? Edit: Even more importantly, why does one build have 16 strenght and the other has 14 even though the requirements are 13?

[@marcusfenix-coussens9646]

Hi Matt has anyone else found that if you leave the dlc for what ever reason and go to the main game that the enemies there are a darn sight harder or is it just me. As I went back to respeck and usually me and mimic take out mohng with ease but going to main he actually scrambled me, urgh!! Also was able to cheese the ghost flame dragon in the lake by going around him and shooting him with the lion bow from the cliffs behind awesome and many thanks for your hard work 👍💯 enjoy!

[@KyloB]

Hey man whats the best weapon for higher level players on ng+7? Is there anything that competes with the blasphemous blade for scaling? The best thing I've found so far is the moon knight twinblades since they have C scaling in 4 stats

is it me or does the star lined sword makes you feel like wielding a lightsaber , star wars vibes

For the last build can you use double star lined sword?

For the ranah build, you can use the armor from the dancer in the cerulean coast area and each piece also boosts dancing attacks making it even better!

So i been messing around with the beast claw in flame art affinity lot of fun i also got the anvil hammer and i think its a good str/fth weapon tho it requires 11 int (dunno why) it scales better with str and cant be infused but the AOW is kinda nuts ill have to mess with it more but the stance damage it can do is wild UPDATE: Ok the stance damage on the anvil hammer AOW is fucking nuts way better than savage lions claw you should definitely make a build for it this thing is awesome

Anvil Hammer is going to be on my next list! 🤘

Hey can some of y'all or someone help me out with this question.

I mean I was hitting it and barely doing any damage but it would knock me out and like one or two hits

how are you hitting 25 faith w/ the build on the star lined? at 150 SL I have just 10

It depends on which starting class you chose, and which starting class he chose. At least that’s my best guess.

Yo great video as always ! Could you do a build with the sword of night ? Thanks !!

For the milady, if you have killed the divine beast, the talisman boosts storm blade by 10%

[@cangwane]

Great video, but all these builds are dexterity builds var 1. Is that the only way to go for the DLC? Are no other paths such as faith, arc, or strength not viable? Just curious as I'm trying to figure out my build before entering the shadow realm. Edit, Heard the euporia is great, what are your thoughts on that weapon?

Thanks! 🙏 Haven’t picked that one up yet. So far Dexterity might be the new meta lol half the weapons I’ve picked up are Dex.
