Didn't Malenia's great rune get buffed right before the DLC? I think your flasks heal for 85% instead of 70% now which kinda makes a rather big difference imo. So this build is actually even better.

Rakshasa armor doesn't give you a damage negation debuff, it just has lowered stats for it's weight class.

@ashandaaritevalumbre2186Ай бұрын
I tried this in NG+7, switching form a dual twinblades setup using blood and ice nthat was working great in the regular game but lacked defenses in the dlc. Well, to say the least, if your build may perform really well in NG0, the damage income with the armor of Rakshasa makes it unsustainable. The rune of Malenia isn't sufficient to recover from the amount of damages that comes in each time you are hit. Basically, every basic opponent two shots you at best when it's not a flat one shot. The gameplay is cool, damages on bosses is actually pretty decent even in ng+7 but it's a pain to play in the open world. I think i'll switch back to some bleed build with dual blades, like the backhand blades.

By the way, investing in Vigor beyond 60 seems like a waste of points due to the diminishing returns on HP per point. If you really want more HP, you can always use the Crimson Amber Medallion +3 for an extra 10% HP, as well as the Fire Knight Helm for an additional 2% HP.

I was wondering where you’ve been and why you haven't checked in with us lately. I just saw your comment and I’m really sorry I missed it earlier! I get floods of comments daily, so sometimes things slip through the cracks. It's hard for me to be objective about the Elden Ring DLC, but I’ll try to be honest. It’s a great DLC and you’ll definitely sink plenty of hours into it. However, it is a bit disappointing that it’s going to be the only DLC for Elden Ring.
@mattwalker281826 күн бұрын
@@KimoChaser I was hesitant to get the DLC but I eventually bit the bullet; the hurdle for me was I switched systems so I have to restart the entire saga before heading into the DLC. Do you think it's best to finish the main campaign before heading in? Or am I safe to get into it aroudn the 100 mark. I'm still a ways off getting there but thought it was a valid question.
@KimoChaser26 күн бұрын
@@mattwalker2818 I don't think finishing the campaign is necessary to enter the DLC unless you need specific items from end-game bosses for your build. RL 100 is doable, but I wouldn't recommend entering the DLC fresh with anything below 50 Vigor. Also, be sure to collect as many Scadutree Fragments as possible. In my guide, I gathered over 20 without fighting anything, which should provide you with over 50% increased damage and more than 100% damage negation. I'm glad you bought the DLC, Matt.

Question. The Fire Knight's Greatsword. Since it has innate fire (Attack) why not use Fire or Flame Art infusion?
@KimoChaserАй бұрын
If we use the Fire infusion, we won't be able to apply Bleed build-up with the Bloodflame Blade buff, as it requires a physical infusion, not an elemental one. However, Bloodflame Blade does enhance the fire damage on the Fire Knight's Greatsword. Flame Art infusion is a good choice if you plan to use the weapon primarily with a Faith build.
