ULTIMATE Elden Ring Dryleaf Arts Build & Guide | @SYROBE

Mathematically Correct Elden Ring Martial Arts Build! I apologize if you guys can hear the lack of sleep in my voice 😂 We are closely examining the dryleaf arts hand to hand weapons and the other hand to hand weapon danes footwork. Both of these are new weapon categories introduced by the DLC! There are also two unique ash of wars specific to hand-to-hand dlc weapons. These are the Palm Blast and the Dryleaf Whirlwind ashes of war. Personally my favorite is the palm blast with dryleaf hands build, but i also really enjoyed using my whirlwind build on danes footwork! A new talisman is also very helpful as the shattered stone talisman buffs all danes footwork kicking attacks and buffs the damage of the whirlwind as well!

Power stance, bleed and frost

[@blackman2101]

It's possible that nobody will see this comment, but using the Poison Bloom ash (a kick skill) on a Poison infused Hand to Hand weapon, stats spread between Dex/Arcane works fantastic, the status builds up in about 6 hits when connected, and if you land the Bloom kick on a poisoned enemy, it's possible to hit 6k+ damage with the typical buff cycle

[@arshadmapari9500]

Hey man, this sounds great to me, how much arcane did you have for this? And any idea if this does more overall damage than cold dryleaf arts?

[@blackman2101]

@@arshadmapari9500 my main character is way overlevel and I have 25 dex/75 arcane, but your damage should still be good with lower stats, I don't think the arcane scaling affects poison build up. Cold would still outscale Poison over a long fight, but Poison Blooms Twice has 3 burst effects (the kick itself, clearing the poison, and the splash at the end) that I use like an execute when an enemy is at about half health (or a boss is close to phase 2)

ok geez, finally a good and non-clickbait informative video on dryleaf arts optimization, thanks a bunch and nice shoutout to youwy hes a very good pve focused content creator for souls games

[@jayrichardson7291]

Whilst dryleaf arts are better by themselves, i think it's worth noting that dane's footwork is boosted by the divine bird greaves and shattered stone talisman so with those, it will probably do more damage

[@trippintomato806]

Also dryleaf arts jump attack is boosted as well as well as the power attack. Combinw that with the raven armor and talisman along with the shattered stone talismans for a good 50%~ more damage with jump attacks

[@hayvanejones8791]

They totally different. Dry leaf is more for breaking stances and Danes are for doing dps cuz the fast attacks and the ash of war most people use on that.

[@fabiobelrause5071]

If you want stronger kicks, the divine bird grieves increase kick damage as well

[@Vxyagr]

Do they write it in the equipment tab?. Like under its description text

[@HalfAndHalfGBF]

One thing I have been having fun with is the deflecting tear + either of the dryleaf weapons. For some reason the guard counter on dryleaf does crazy high damage and is decently fast. I have reached upwards of 3.5k in the dlc on a quality build.

[@justinlowery6017]

I’ve been running dryleaf on my build and noticed that I haven’t seen any of these videos on it mention that the Divine Bird Greaves boost the power of kicking attacks.

[@outrider8569]

also pair raptor's black feathers and claw talisman and your jump attack kicks become ridiculous

[@kim-xo]

only ogs now dryleaf arts isn't from sekiro and it's actually from ds2 in the form of the bone fists

To everyone confused on how he was using cold with open palm or whirwind, you need the glinstone whetblade. To get it tp to the debate parlor grace run straight out the gate and immediately thrn left, you should see 2 staircases(one that is destroyed(right) and one that is fine(left)) Take the destroyed staircase on the right and you should see a room. In there will be a glinstone sorcerer, you can kill him or not but you can pick up the glintstone whetblade on one of the balcones in that room

Great video as always bro

[@tkallday0321]

awesome vid bro looks op!

[@Noisyboii120]

I had a similar thought on the dryleaf vs Danes but I find that because the shattered stone talisman works with the normal moveset. In my opinion, this makes up for the slightly slower attack speed of Dane’s. It also means that the light attacks aren’t quite as useless as they do decent enough damage and usually has enough recovery to allow me to dodge some bosses faster attacks. they are both great weapons, and the choice in my opinion is purely preference. Dane’s is better for aggressive players and dryleaf is for people who want to set up a lot of staggers.

[@PhantomCooper]

If you want a nice lil damage boost for all the kicking attacks, the Divine bird leggings increase kick damage

[@GamerNurseGale]

I've yet to optimize this build. But this is a strong one when I tested it yesterday 🙂👍

[@clevergoblin1714]

Divine Bird armor legs actually give a bonus to kick attacks aswell, so it may even work with the footwork

[@MaximusLomeli]

Amazing song and great tutorial thanks man

[@daniels.8917]

This was basically my setup for the entire DLC except for a couple of more challenging bosses. Used ancient meteoric ore greatsword for those because it has ridiculous damage scaling. Just liked the feel of the martial arts

I love this song man thank you for the tutorial

[@daninazzz]

Amazing video and PLEASE do one on backhand blade or/and dragon hunter great katana, your builds are unmatched 🙏

[@conaldeugenepeterson2147]

Optimal backhand Blade is Keen with S scaling, a couple talismans for increasing damage (rotted insignia, the enemy death buff, consecutive attacks, etc), and exalted flesh. And you can use grease for whatever resistance the boss is weak to, but Mesmer flame is a decent baseline.

[@CuddleBuddee]

4:06 Ayyy, when your 2 of your fav (and spiciest personalities) gaming creators @Syrobe mention each other in a video.

Also major props for citing a source and respectfully stating your own findings when they came back differently. Again, you articulate things very well(while still keeping the spicy attitude ready when needed LMAO 😂) 🤙🏾

[@vector2993]

I personally like the Dane's Footwork more mostly because it has more kicks, that's pretty much it, I just think it's cooler but also hear me out, I just run both and swap when I want a punch moveset + palm blast. Also, you you can get more damage by going 40/35/44 for str/dex/int on a cold hand-to-hand arts weapon s a wretch, my stats are SL 150 Vigor - 60 Mind - 10 Endurance - 20 Strength - 40 Dexterity - 35 Intelligence - 44 Faith - 10 Arcane - 10 Talismans: Milicent's Prosthesis (+5 dexterity, makes me have 40 dexterity, makes weapon AR jump to 442), Shattered Stone Talisman, Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman, last slot is flex (So WSI/RWSI for more damage or a talisman for more defense) And alternatively you can swap the 4 points in intelligence into endurance, only makes your AR go from 442 to 437 which is still really good. If you want to use a smithscript weapon in conjunction with it, you'd just use a helm that gives +1 faith or just use one of your spare 4 stat points and put 1 into faith

[@ob1_jakobi]

Divine Bird Warrior Greaves has an interesting buff for kicks. "The great, sharp talons increase the force generated by kicks."

[@TTlvY]

Another thing I tried is barbaric roar charged attacks feel pretty good stack up charge attack bonus, consecutive atk bonus, and roar medallion and it hits pretty strong. The jump attack double kick looks way too sweet so I started using standard jump atk setup with raptor of the mist it is a very fun weapon

Put on The Divine Bird Feet armor piece. It boosts kicking damage. The Divine Bird Helmet raises str/dex both by three points as well.
