ELDEN RING'S IDEA OF A BALANCE UPDATE: Perfumes no longer do any damage to any enemy, and if you try to use them, FromSoft will dispatch someone to spray perfume in your eyes in real life. The Blasphemous Blade's weapon skill now takes two frames longer to activate, but in exchange, it now does ten times more damage, and deposits $100 into your bank account every time you use it.

I think there's a damage calculation thing that's weird with any DLC Weapons that leave a residual fire AoE. Both the ghostflame that gets placed on the ground from the Ghostflame Call Ash of War & the charged R2 for Messemer's Spear of the Impaler that briefly leaves Messemer's fire on the ground after the explosion, the lingering fire AoE on them barely do _ANY_ damage even when you have the weapons maxed out. That, as well as the Electrocharge incantation having an AoE that does almost no damage, with some Spirit Ashes like Florissax barely doing any damage with her attacks makes me think that a couple things in the DLC don't have a calculation set correctly.

The others laughed and after the next round of drinks decided it was the best idea ever. When they showed it to him the next day, Miyazaki laughed, shook his head, and probably said, "Well. We make sure there is room to fail, so go for it." Seriously though, I like your videos because they are PVE focused. I get tired of looking for build ideas and such and finding a million and one PVP focused videos. I don't care about PVP. I'm not spending most of the game in PVP. So I couldn't care less about someone making a video using an obviously bugged weapon that exploits the game's PVP lagginess and then they call it the best build/weapon ever.

@@terrycruise-zd5tw Honestly I think Claws of Night should be higher. He initially rated them highly as well, but during testing decided they were weaker. However, he was using stuff like the spear talisman during testing, which doesn't work with the ash of war at all. Also, while the damage does fall off at range as Youwy said, the strength of the AoW is that the bleed buildup is the same even if you just barely connect a single dagger from long range. So in addition to the pure damage, the benefits to mobility and spacing of a mid range bleed weapon are really high and not to be overlooked. For anyone interested, I posted a detailed breakdown of what does and doesn't boost the ash of war damage on the fextra Claws of Night page.

@@fragtal177 No. I haven't actually experimented with all stats that can benefit from it, but DEX and STR work as well. The reason I mentioned INT is just because one of the easiest ways to get a good Ice Spear is from a Clayman's Harpoon, which scales very well with INT. I'm not 100% how the projectile scales either. I believe it's solely based off of the AR of the weapon itself, which means whatever stat you can get the best scaling with from whatever spear or halberd you want to use should be fine. For reference, I actually do pretty decent damage on my STR/FTH build that has Ice Spear on a Halberd. I don't have it optimized for Ice Spear either, but it's still a really good AoW even unoptimized. For comparison, Glintstone Pebble is the most efficient Sorcery as far as damage vs cost. Ice Spear optimized for INT ends up slightly higher in efficiency but on top of that can cause frostbite and quickly break poise.

I just came in search for cool weapons to use in a third play on the DLC, I found people still arguing about skill to beat the bosses. It really isn't that hard if you are bad in the game. You can always search for some help in talisman if you don't want to read them or test them. I tried some stratagies against the last boss. Things like big shields and counters, dodging attacks and giving criticals with dex, using only summons while healing and buffing them and sometimes ranged attacks, parrying most attacks. Some worked better than others but with suficient luck and understand of mechanics you can defeat him. Like understanding the best roll for and attack usually is the direction the attack is coming from because of eye frames. The DLC and the game give you so many ways to approach fights, so many buffs, tiers, talisman, summons. After 1 or 2 tries you can pretty much guess how the boss acts during the fight. If you are dying too soon, than maybe you just didn't level up vigor enough or can't even use a decent shield to test the boss. You just have to be smart in how to tackle puzzles, because each boss is one, or you can just use a broken build like so many others. Playing it pretty much blind, I think I died something like 25 times in the entire DLC first playthrough. I just searched abut the fire golens because I though I was missing something after everthing but heavy hitters in poise did anything to them. These kind of games are not exactly about getting good. You do have to be decent enough to win against some bosses, but if you play careful enough and think how to tackle the challanges, most encounters can be trivialized. You would only die when you really mess things up, like trying to desperatly heal. EVERY encounter in the entire game punishes you when you turn desperate and start rolling to heal. I remember when I played bloodborne for the first time and beat all bosses of base game and DLC without parrying because I didn't like the mechanic. The only really hard one was orphan. Parry trivialized that thing. And I still think he is way more difficult than Redahn.

Ngl I expected the Sword Lance to be here. That weapon is fundamentally broken. Crazy good strength scaling, heavy attacks have great spear hyperarmor, status effect buildup of a colossal weapon, obviously has pierce damage
@marclenraymagdaraog691Ай бұрын
He said it was good but not on the level of these weapons.. These weapons are technically broken, and mathematically too. Like Blasphemous makes the DLC like base game but easier. by spamming L2 and healing through boss attacks. And most of the weapons here have insane Stance damage despite being nerfed a lot of times. Sword Lance definitely Great if it's a list of 20 weapons it would be in there but the ones here are just on another level in terms of "PVE."

@@marclenraymagdaraog691 Yeah I know, these weapons are truly made for those who refuse to use their brain, just spam one single attack and that's it.

Was thinking about what my next build should be, leaning towards the marias executioner sword or dual scavengers but that wing of astel looks pretty cool. Might have to try it out.
@Hax4SnaxАй бұрын
marais is good but the timing can be annoying to get down, dual scavengers is insane dps, really broken, use it if you havent before its fun but then very boring very quick. My vote is for wings of astel, the way he uses it in the vid is how i played thru with it, L2 into charged heavy, or just spam L2 all day for insane dmg on big bosses.

@youwyАй бұрын
It was initially at number 9 but I wanted to move SONAF down and the video was basically done so for convenience sake I just switched them. But they both just as good as one another. I wouldn’t care if someone put deaths poker higher.

Magma Blade could be the Faith alternative to Wing of Astel. Its weapon ash functions similar with the sword hitting and the lava hitting. Bonus is DLC has Talisman of the Dread for 15% more lava damage.

Personally I’d like to argue in favor of the bloodfiends fork (infusable one). They get ~100 bleed loss and great occult scaling while benefiting from a strong power stance moveset, piercing damage, and much longer range. They have replaced power stanced scavengers curved sword as the best bleed build for me personally. Thanks for the awesome video

I think there are too many somber weapons on this list. Sure, they all have their moments, but weapons like Bloodhound Claws, Nagakiba, Great Katana, Star Fists, and Claymore are never bad. What makes them even better is the fact that you can practically always select an ash of war that is close to the best option for any fight.
@matty_b_buckets5676Ай бұрын
Double Slash Ash of War on Nagakiba is also really strong, you can proc bleed with 2 ash of war hits. Combined with buffs and other bleed Talismans it’s good late game aswell
@tortue_Ай бұрын
About the Bloodfiend's Arm, i think the "bug fix" naming is legit. If the smithscript weapon infusions were so too that is. Infusions seem to have caused some problems to me, so its safe to assume they fixed the bug and nerfed the bloodloss build up effect of the heavy attacks alongside it.
@cosmiccat4706Ай бұрын
I'm just happy a DLC weapon made it into the top 10. Even if only one could make it, now we just need some buffs to some of the other DLC weapons so we can start seeing more of them on these kinds of lists.

@NathanTrubyАй бұрын
2:21 I assume you meant that as in without infusions, but for arguents sake, I disagree. You had a few in the base game via Clayman's Harpoon and Erdsteel Dagger (put flame art/sacred on harpoon and cold/magic on dagger) and now we have tons more. For example, Gazing Finger, Madding Hand, Carian Thrusting shield (when infused with sacred/flame art), Black Steel Greathammer (infused with magic/cold), the entirety of the Smithscript line of weapons and probably some more that I'm forgetting.

@jlb5287Ай бұрын
Where would you rank Eleonora’s Poleblade? I’ve been using it on NG+ and I’ve been shredding bosses in almost one combo every time. I love that the very first hit of the combo also gives you the advantage due to its move and reach, allowing you to safely combo the enemy. I rarely see it in the top 10 videos but honestly it’s so broken on NG+ that I had to switch for NG+2.
@drudge5268Ай бұрын
My 2c for what it's worth: Strong but not top 10. The biggest advantage it has is that the Ash of War sits in the highest hyperarmor class, getting a near uninterruptible 500 poise boost and 50% poise damage reduction during the combo. The biggest disadvantage is that you're locked into a long combo that can require you to trade damage, as most bosses don't have openings long enough to use the whole thing.

@VoraelАй бұрын
It's funny that the talismans are straight power creep, some of the spells seem like they were at least intended to be power creep (Pest Threads 2, Lightning Spear 2, etc.) but most of the DLC weapons are... just kinda meh. Chicken leg is wild and there're a few other standouts but I went through the game with a faith build and never really found anything that could dethrone the gear I'd brought with me. I'm not even talking about Blasphemous Blade; Relic Sword, Marika's Hammer, and a few others just felt like they were pretty much just straight superior to everything I found. Shoutouts to the lizard greatsword tho, what a neat little weapon. Not outrageously powerful or anything but very cool and fun to use. I wish they hadn't limited its ashes of war selection so harshly tho.
