Testing EVERY NEW COLOSSAL SWORD for your joy (Elden Ring DLC)

[@EvalithFoG]

Something you forgot about the Tremendous Phalanx is that you can follow up with a strong attack to chain it into a lunging thrust!

That would make a "Perfectly timed cuts" meme for sure hahhahaha

[@robadams1645]

Oh no!

[@Eddy5Gulf]

There is absolutely no reason for both Lord and Light Radahns to be separate. Could have easily been a stance weapon like Square off where you hold then either press the light or heavy to fire any of the skills.

[@monkwashere]

Agreed

[@masirmaiwansd6576]

That would be like making each individual sword of rennala a seperate option, but at least those would have been different kinds of weapons 💀

I fun thing I have found with ancient meteoric ore gs is if you hit a light attack then insta aow it usually catches the panis roll

[@wendigotoes]

Feel like Moonrithyll’s sword should have been the Fire Knight’s Greatsword for INT builds. Innate int scaling and magic damage + infusable.

[@RedGalbot]

Absolutely love the Fireknight Greatsword. That thing is easily my favorite weapon from the DLC. Simple and effective.

[@maxmickle7821]

The (Lord) version of the ash of war is like waterfowl dance on a colossal sword

[@The_Fearshredder4444]

While I love the ashes of the two last boss weapons you get with the remembrance, I which they would've just made it a stance thing where you choose between the two on one weapon. It's the only boss that has three items to choose for it's remembrance and it feels like a odd choice.

[@xicespawn1398]

Colossal swords are my favorite class in every souls game so I’m glad we got some new ones (hate the two Radahn swords tho)

[@anitaremenarova6662]

Missed opportunity to have them have a stance with both attacks on R1 and L1 + ringed knight greatswords moveset.

[@Jblank1016]

My take is still that the final boss colossals shouldve just been one weapon with a stance ash. We even got the stance boosting talisman in this DLC and it only applies to like, 3 Somber Weapons total lmao

[@FlyingPenguin196]

It also should have been paired curved greatswords since this radahn is much smaller than the star scourge version. It makes sense that his weapons should be smaller too.

[@Realdrlipschitz]

Lol at the quick cut from America’s Child… don’t worry, we had the Geneva Convention… us American’s didn’t see nothing

[@sayanchandaroy7420]

shoutout to Paladin Boyd, who chose to end it gracefully instead of continuing to fight while knowing Monk lost a third of his health to a phantom hitbox

[@alanmartinez2122]

something i like to do is hot swap the radahn swords so i start with the lord version and if i see them start keeping their distance or ready to dodge the aow i swap to the light one to finish them with it's uncharged aow, gets them a suprising amount of the time

[@Desperados006]

Monk... I love you. I truly love you, quality videos, nice/good player and... You're perfection. You forgot to say, the Tremendous Phalanx have a thrust following attack like the Kriss dagger.

[@Raine_Sakan]

When is my brother gonna run out of adjectives

[@frostbitedf2527]

The Radahn Great swords are both amazing for Invasions

[@BlaZay]

Additional notes about the AMOGS: leveling ARC not only increases both the physical AND magical damage of the weapon (netting you more AR than STR), but it's also the primary scaling stat of the WA. If given the choice, you should always go with an ARC build instead of STR.

[@bas919]

Moonrithyll's Knight Sword's aow has a follow-up heavy thrust after the phalanx spell.

[@DarkHumor_6]

It just kinda annoys me how the moonblabla knight great sword and the bonny butchering knife are the exact same models as the trolls knight sword and the normal butchering knife, they could have at least make the shape a bit different but damn this dlc is a 9.7/10 (10/10 it they had unique models 😁)

[@muksik_illa]

when you guard break someone with these kinds of weapons block after the attack because it speeds up the recovery a bit

[@maybecoolperson7466]

Lord radahn sword my favorite weapon, 1 hand move set is better, but that weapon art is crazy! Its always worth it to finish the combo even if the person is far away due to the final attack 6-way light beam that throws people in the air that is hard to dodge. As monk said, catching someone in a full aow of it deals 2k damage and nearly always oneshots.

[@livinglegacy5687]

At 5:25, what attack was that?

[@Whydoineedahandlepissoff]

Light of Miquella

[@theshmuk5423]

The ashes of war for both the Lord and Light greatswords are awesome but I really wish the weapon move set was unique instead of the colossal sword move set

[@williamgilmore1763]

17:13 wow that person he just killed is someone he dueled earlier in the video

[@maskedmisfit364]

Meteoric ore greatsword slaps!

[@eggmug562]

Just an idea: if you run out of stuff to cover, a rundown of the items in convergence would be awesome.

[@vedishplays]

For ancient metoric sword. Use 48 arcane. The arcane scaling is a fake D as it scales both strength and magic part. Its a b scaling in arcane

[@HuntersGamingx]

Moonrithyll's Knight Sword has a follow up attack when you use the ash of war

[@flipperjr.3822]

5:27 Man's ptsd started flaring up when he saw the lights

[@ordis5423]

I love str arc scaling weapons cause you can get some wacky phys dmg

[@DataDrain02]

Honestly, the Radahn's Greatswords should have been one weapon with a stance. Would it be OP? No idea. But, it seems like a waste to have two identical weapons with the only difference being the AoW. Not to mention... this is the reward for THE hardest boss in the game BY FAR. It should be borderline OP.

[@theguileraven7014]

Don’t forget. Two identical weapons that are also identical to a weapon from the base game. lol

[@simon-peterwilliamson2412]

Pretty sure the carian sword has a follow up thrust. I thought you'd use it. Good move for a colossal weapon

[@Firefuzz11]

Definitely need to go over the new great swords now.

[@fishnutz5196]

Deffinately perfer Flame Spear as the buff lasts way longer and gives the Fire Knight GS even more range

[@kofu1267]

Meteoric Greatsword was my immediate main weapon from the moment I found it. Absolutely peak.

[@trayshawnthomas6659]

I feel like I’m going to get nuked proceeds to get nuked 😭😭😭

[@Joseph_Biten]

Fromsoft didn't have to make a new Trolls Knight Sword, they could have just changed the ash of war on the sword we already have. Yeah, it's unorthodox to change something like that but they could have done it and I'm sure most people would understand.

[@vaskopoh9512]

Will you do this for all new weapons eventually?

[@lharsay]

Colossal swords were eating good with this DLC, I think they are compatible with all the new ashes except for the ones that are specific to one weapon class.

[@Spergalishus]

The shape of the meteorite greatsword reminds me of Soul Edge from Soul Calibur.

[@SergioJWero]

the troll sword skill has a heavy follow up attack

[@K1NG_of_ReVeNGe1]

I don't give a damn about PvP but I like these Videos a lot weirdly enough The Flameknight Greatsword is brobably the singular best Fire-weapon in the game. Flamespear and Skewer are both insane skills and it looks mad. Light and Heavy attack string is just the cherry on top

The Moonrythill has a R2 or R1 follow up, the one that did true combo at early Elden and was broken but you didn’t use it

[@sebastianrose8145]

Man said "I feel like I'm about to get nuke" then actually gets nuked xD

[@Ontacchy]

I wouldn't be surprised if Fire Knight Greatsword had that light-light true combo because someone accidentally used an older template for it, maybe even the one dating back to DS3.

[@anitaremenarova6662]

DS3 had no colossal sword with that R1 chain. It was a simple mistake of forgetting that it needs to have level 2 hitstun instead of 3 like all the regular colossal swords.

[@seraphwithatank6535]

My favorite is definitely the flame flamberge

[@AlexanderMartinez-kd7cz]

IMO the light version is better, it has utility and a timing mixup while the lord version just has a big swing that deals more damage. like you need that with paired colossal swords.

[@nachoferrari3054]

[@realbloodydoves]

Cool vid but the lack of a Thrusting Shield video is making me cry inside, monk! Give my boy the Dueling Shield some time in the sun!

[@niall_sanderson]

A really small thing I like about the meteoric ore Greatsword is that the particle effect from its magic damage is purple instead of blue. Visually it helps set it apart from other weapons that deal magic damage

[@anitaremenarova6662]

Regarding Moonrithyll sword you forgor that it also does a thrust charge if you press R2 after the skill

I got tired of Rellana's twin blade's non existent posture damage and how useless the skill was against large enemies or bosses, so i just used two knight greatswords with fire skewer and carian sovereingty, they felt way better for an INT/FTH build.
