Godskin Starting Class in Elden Ring

[@kokushibo6299]

For anyone wondering why black flame tornado did so much damage against the big dragon, it’s because black flame and destined death’s damage scale off enemy Hp. Easy way to put it, more enemy hp = more damage

Lol true, Black Flame is a good one

[@frostyelwood9898]

Some of it does great against people who have a lot of health. Im glad we got more stuff for it in the Convergence Mod

[@Grimsly3736]

@@frostyelwood9898it’s weird like I feel like I can’t complain about the base games selection cause I was fielding for my Dark Pyromancy in Ds3 but only got 3 so Elden Rings like 6 - 7 are like what I wanted but the convergence mod does it so nicely! I think one of the convergence spells is to OP even just for the mod but still that’s only 1

[@frostyelwood9898]

@@Grimsly3736 i really do like the Convergence Mod but i cant ever play it since i only play on Xbox. From the runs that ive watched ive seen that theres quite a lot of spells and incantations that are genuinely amazing. Some are op and some are not very good. Its a good selection just like that base game even if there is more

"You can't defeat me, I brought my ghost boss who's immune to status effects!" "Well, I brought my black flame, which deals status effects to bosses who are immune to status effects!"

[@ericb3157]

reminds me of the final battle of Chrono Trigger. in BOTH phases, the boss(es) have an ability called "protective seal" that can break your equipment that protects from status effects. there are two helmets that have that effect-oops, i just looked them up and there are 3 types: the VIgil hat, the Gloom helm, and the Prism helmet. -the Gloom helm is a one-of a kind helmet only Magus can use. the Prism helms are DEFINITELY the best for that battle, because they can actually RECOVER from that spell between phases, so you will be protected at the beginning of the true final phase, the Lavos Core. PS: to get them, you have to complete both of the "rainbow shell" side-quests.

[@Gladistroid]

I'm too lazy to check if someone suggested it, but a Nox Sisterhood build could be cool. Either with the mimic or the nox sisters ashes. Definitely my favourite looking set of armour in the game

[@VileLasagna]

Puppets are Nightmaiden and Swordstress. There is still space for monk =3

[@Idea_of_Lustre]

Little fun fact, people have actually tested the damage of Black Flame Tornado. Since it hits multiple times, and each hit has its own DoT effect, it goes from ~2% to ~13%. And to my knowledge this has never gotten a nerf.

[@tulokthebarbrarian2033]

Thats absurd, but I love it

[@SuperXD44]

[@jakeforgey5378]

Black Flame, as far as I know, when cast by the matching seal and fully charged deal 3% baseline total HP, tick off 5% and usually eat about 2% on the first tick... then again that was back in the first month of ER and that save got corrupted and I haven't used them since... too op overall...

[@unironicallylikesranger7122]

Fun fact! “Gloam” is one of those funny old words that’s pronounced different t than it’s spelled. It’s pronounced “G-lame” as in “it’s pretty g-lame to correct people playing a video game on how they pronounce archaic words and phrases like faroth or gaol”

I still remember the day I subbed. I was binge watching tuloks Elden Ring runs, and was on like the fourth or fifth one and all of a sudden I hear him say 'Go ahead and subscribe, you know you've binged watch 5 videos in a row" I spit out the drink I was taking and instantly subbed.

[@tulokthebarbrarian2033]

Yeah, you can kinda play this a few different ways!

[@lichmopp]

I love this series so much and eager to see what other classes you come up with! If you're taking suggestions for more starting classes, unsure if you've done it before but Moongrum's entire kit is obtainable without fighting almost any bosses (gotta get past the radagon dog to tussle with the man himself for his shield). I've been running through myself slowly with it and it's pretty fun, only struggled against Rennala so far due to her high magic resist

Apologies if you already knew this, but given how annoying it can be to farm for pre-pickled feet, there's a stack of 3 feet on a catapult to the southeast of the Windmill Village grace.

Honestly, the Apostle Drip from behind also looks really cool. This honestly seems like a fun build. The presence of the Noble on the Bridge is another one of those lore things that has me scratching my head. Like, yes, maybe he's there to get the skin off Ranni's Kentucky Fried Corpse... but... OK. Weird theory. Empyreans seem to have some form of multiform nature - Marika and Radagon, Miquella and St. Trina, and so on. Gloam-Eyed Queen is an Empyreal, and so is Ranni. What if GEQ was another "form" of Ranni? That helps explain why Ranni's spirit form eye matches Melina's, and how Ranni even knew the Rune of Death was with Maliketh - she used its power before, and stole it back. Weird idea, probably wrong, but fun to think of. Solid video, love the idea of the weapon, may have to give it a run myself.

[@SheffiTB]

the godskin noble is there in order to retrieve Ranni's half of the cursemark of death, since it's a part of the Destined Death that was taken from the godskins/gloam-eyed queen

[@samakiraroyjanssen6326]

He’s there because the rune of death holds destined death. Ranni’s corpse has half the tune of death. Farum duo is after maliketh, Carlos tower protects the gloam great sword, rykard dude is working with the god devourer (and the most likely source of their ‘inhuman physiology’), and windmill village is there as leader of the godskin celebrants.
