Note: Don't forget to 2-hand your weapon if needed before applying cragblade, or it won't work. I forgot to do that at 4:30, so cragblade didn't actually get applied, since I have to 2-hand to meet the minimum strength requirements for that weapon.

A couple of points, viz; The warrior in Temple Town Ruins does not drop a Scadutree fragment. It is found on a corpse on the ruins wall. Raising Faith to 15 will not allow you to use Golden Vow, it needs 25 Faith. Nice, concise video without any stupid slang or overexcited commentary. Well done.

I really enjoyed this build. And it did indeed bully. Could you look into a Jolly Co-op build?. There's no stance breaking in Co-op as even if you get one, there's rarely time to hit it. And you need a quick load-out change to deal with Landscape or Boss summoning. Finally, something for those pesky invaders as they ALWAYS land in co-op. Cheers.
@SoulObsessionGamesАй бұрын
Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed the build! And thanks for the suggestion. This build is good for boss co-op too. You won't get as many staggers, but the bloodfiends arm is still one of the best weapons in the game because of bleed. But you're probably right that it's not as good for PvP. I don't do enough PvP to know what's optimal, but for arcane/strength I've had some success with beastman's curved sword.

@@skipjacks85 Saying something is good does not mean it isn't excellent too, the terms are not mutually exclusive. Yes, it could be the best greathammer in the game, that's why it's the only greathammer I used. But in the context of this run, you're generally better off using the bloodfiends arm or starfist depending on the situation, which is why I wasn't heaping praise on it compared to the other weapons I'm using. The statement you quoted did not say that the nerf was significant. You're assuming meanings that aren't there. I'm giving alternatives IN CASE the bloodfiends arm gets nerfed AGAIN, implying that the current nerf is not significant enough to warrant using a different weapon.
@skipjacks852 ай бұрын
@@SoulObsessionGames agreed. It’s def better to use the BFA for this build. It’s truly a broken weapon that trivializes the game. It’s the best bleed wep, charged heavy wep, poise damage wep & guard counter wep. Was just saying the GS is still an excellent weapon and shouldn’t be slept on because of BFA. Now if u powerstance the Great Stars into a jump attack build both w/ Cragblade set to bleed affinity there might be an argument to be made. Weight units are identical.

Any recommendations for being summoned for DLC final boss? Charged attacks for several times, seems not staggerable. Or to use completely different builds instead. I tried Blood Antspur Rapier & Fingerprint GreatShield, I was very fine, but too slow that most hosts died b4 boss unless the host using similar poking behind Fingerprint GS. I was helped by other summoned players, would like to help others who struggle when soloing.
@SoulObsessionGames2 ай бұрын
Depends on which NG cycle, if the host is NG+2 or something the boss won't stagger as easily. Bloodfiend's arm should still be one of the strongest weapons when blood infused and using charged heavies. But there are other OP setups. You could try a great katana with repeating thrust like this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJqkqntvndymqpo

Do you have any advice for NG+2 and above? Since bosses take less poise damage
@SoulObsessionGames2 ай бұрын
It might take an additional charged heavy to get each stagger, but you should be able to use the same basic approach. I haven't tried it on NG+2 myself, so let me know how it goes. The damage output of DLC bosses at higher NG cycles can be pretty brutal. But hopefully your stats are quite a bit higher than mine, so I'd recommend stronger armor like the tree sentinel set, and adding some buffs like golden vow. Pump arcane to 80 and maybe level some stength to help with damage output. Fortunately with a blood infused bloodfiends arm, you should still get a decent amount of bleed procs, and percentage-based damage is great for coping with higher boss healthpools. Good luck!

It would still be a strong build if you keep leveling up. Use stronger armor like tree sentinel set and more damage negation like golden vow incantation. But it would take more hits to get each stagger. I'm not sure if the bosses would deal too much damage for endure to be viable - if so, it might be better to use cragblade and dodge more.
