that is not even slightly true, most of the coolest weapons hit like freight trains. Godslayer's Greatsword - 10k+ damage on aow. Bolt of Gransax, Dragonking's Cragblade - have pushed both to 8k damage on aow. Messmer's Spear - 14k damage on aow. Siluria's Tree - I literally killed putrescent knight in FOUR ash of war uses. I could go on, most of the unique weapons with good ashes of war can be insanely optimised in this game.

[@nxvh9062]

if you know how to build around your damage talismans (shard of alex, godfrey icon, scorpion charms, rotten winged, etc), are using basic buffs like golden vow and fgms, and are using the right physick tears, doing that much damage isn't even hard. No billion buffs with hat changing and madness self-inflicting or any of that bs, just one or two spell buffs and a physick.

[@Z0RUK]

Considering that the fully charged skill is conditional and can't be used at any time, it should be as powerful as possible if not the highest damaging in the game.

Yeah, for the amount of trouble you have to go through to charge it up and how vulnerable you are during the skill, it really ought to be the hardest hitting skill in the game.

The most disappointing one for me is the Greatsword of Radahn variants. Why is the weapon still scaling off INT when the weapon art deals holy damage? And more importantly, why are there two variants when it could’ve just been one weapon with 2 weapon art follow-ups out of a stance? Genuinely bad design imo, don’t know what they were thinking with that one

This weapon would be awesome in a turn based RPG. The problem with all the cool shit you can do in any FROM game is that you have no window to use it unless you've completely mastered the fight, and even then it's just fluff. You're better off with power stanced straight swords L1 spamming, jump attacking/running attacking with dual curved swords, two-handed great to colossal tier weapons and so on. Too many weapon arts and incantations specifically feel useless as fuck, as though they were made for a different game where you can watch the spectacle and not get staggered out of your zero hyper armour attack that doesn't do nearly enough damage to justify using it over a regular attack.

[@iianmitchelldub]

Not fully.. but I definitely agree with like 90 percent of this. I get its tough to balance SO much stuff and so much shit is busted or meta or whatever that its hard to balance all of it. I used to be a hardcore slave to the meta and now I enjoy using different shit thats fun. Even if its not as strong or whatever if I have fun with it ill vibe with it. Stacking poise in armor helps a ton

[@bitter_harambe]

When I found it, after the journey I took to find it, I was expecting either a huge troll weapon (like a broken straight sword that couldn't be broken) or an iconic throwback weapon from previous games.

They should remove the timer. Attacks raise the strenght of the weapon. After 10 light attacks, you get to level 2. Then level 3. If you want you can stay on level 3 forever or a very long time, or use the ash.

It'll most likely get buffed along with a load of the other underperforming things when the first patch rolls around which will probably be quite soon given info on the steamdb depots. It being complicated and such is interesting though because a weapon being strong in a souls game doesn't matter as every single weapon is a viable way to beat the game so the only thing that matters if it changes your playstyle which this does so that's great.

[@undiiviidual]

“underperforming” this is a pve game. the weapons are fine, not every weapon needs to be “100 million billion L2 solider bleed build (red arrow in thumbnail) S tier build !!!!!”. that makes the game boring.

[@Can_O_Crayola]

@@undiiviidual Dude talk about completely missing the point. People aren't asking for weapons to do a billion damage. They're asking for endgame spells, skills, incants, and weapons to actually behave and damage like endgame skills. Shadow of the Erdtree is endgame. Every single thing that drops from this DLC should be balanced with that in mind, and it's obscene that barely anything we get in this DLC is actually powerful enough to be worth changing your build or weapon setup for. The vast majority of the incantations in the DLC are absolutely dogshit useless at this time against literally everything. Vanilla ER has midgame incantations that do more damage and are more reliable than most of the shit we got in this DLC. They gave us so many new weapon categories, most of which are completely useless against anything that isn't basic level fodder.

The funny thing is that in the German translation it is actually called Euphorie what is euphoria. So it's possible that the translatiors did something wrong or the h is missing.

[@theroadstopshere]

Based on the general weapon/skill design they seem to be going with here, it seems likely that the backend of the code works a bit like this: Base Weapon starts with 0 stacks of 'hits', using the first of three movesets and damage tables. Each hit with the weapon using that table grants a certain number of 'hit' stacks, with the light attacks granting something like 1 stack per connection (since twinblade light attacks can hit 2x each, that averages to 2 stacks per light attack) tied to a boolean check ("Did weapon connect? If yes, +1") at certain frames of the animation. For charged attacks, there is likely a small table of stack values based on how much the attack was charged up which are used instead of the +1 for lights; jumping heavy and light probably both just have set values for each check based on the length of the animation required. These stacks are checked both every second or so and after each animation, decaying by one each check. Once some number of 'hit' stacks are acquired (based on the numbers here I'd hazard a guess at 10 stacks), the weapon switches moveset, animation, and damage tables to the first buffed form. Then, the weapon stays in that form until either the next buff threshold is met (If we're using these number again, likely 20) or the stacks fully decay to 0. The same is true of the second level buff, but until it drops to below the first threshold and then is moved down to the set of tables for the first buff. Using the AoW on the second level buff also automatically drains all stacks, seemingly regardless of whether you get the full animation off or not (although I'd have to review the footage more carefully or do the testing on my own to be sure). Since the stacks are tied to hit register checks, rather than damage numbers or kills, it sits in a weird place where maximizing scaling damage on it actually reduces the likelihood of getting and maintaining the buff during regular use, while doing a stamina build with minimal damage stats where you simply focus on maximizing hits is actually rewarded with more consistent flat damage buffs and access to the higher-tier AoW. This would actually make it uniquely suited for doing a build with max vigor, mind, endurance, etc and minimal damage stats, as you would be getting more out of this weapon by investing less in base damage. It's fascinating in how much more like a traditional "skill trade-off" video game weapon it becomes when compared to normal Fromsoft weapons when that is taken into mind, with trading out lower base damage and flexibility for more consistent access to the buffs and the stronger AoW. Really not something we see From experiment with very often, at least not to this degree. I can see why it was left out of the base game, it's a very odd weapon when compared to their normal roster, and doesn't really fit well in the sandbox as a result. Especially without any similarly-designed weapons in other categories, or a clear damage advantage offered by using it, it really is just an odd duck of a weapon despite how cool it is. Know a lot of this is just kinda rephrasing what was said here, but hopefully this makes sense as a coding/design theory. Appreciate the weapon showcase and breakdown! I've really been wondering about this thing, but haven't had the time to do proper testing or video study. Thanks for your work!

You need to scramble so much to get this weapon fully buffed, meanwhile the bloodfiend arm you just go "hehe I bonk with turkey leg" and it deals truckloads more damage

[@MrBiosh0ck]

I think each hit adds duration and the charge increases the duration, so if you do all the attacks quickly you have accumulated the timer fully at once so it will appear to last longer. I'd recommend starting a timer at the time of the first hit to test this.

[@shinzoux5912]

Some reasons why Euphoria is so popular are because; It is super well hidden, requires effort to acquire - think about how strong and prepared one needs to be just to get to the DLC, let alone how late into it one gets it twin blades are cool - the overall design is dope typing is interesting and rare AoW seems interesting at first glance - and it looks awesome Hopefully it gets buffed

[@Coansp]

it’s pretty good in my experience. I personally stuck with regular light attacks and running lights, with two handed sword talisman, holy scorpion charm, and both consecutive attack talismans. When using all 3 consecutive attack buffs (2 talisman and the cracked tear) the two handed r1 combo can do wonders. Gaining the special buff was pretty inconsistent though, I’ll either instantly reach max buff (especially fast buildup with the horseback charged heavy) or never even get the first. When optimally buffed with 18 scadutree fragments lv160, not counting the consecutive attack buffs I was getting around 2100 damage per light attack against the final DLC boss. Melts first phase, and the skill is primed and ready for the start of 2nd phase and deals 3-4k with the projectile alone. Overall a fun weapon, and imo blasphemous blade should have worked this way as well, since that’s how it works when rykard uses it in the bossfight. Where you need to build up a bar by attacking before you can use takers flames, so it rewards an engaging playstyle. (I have beef with blasphemous blade/no skill weapon skill spamming builds/jumping attack spam/status effects/any cheesy strat)

[@TheAnaz41745]

I like using Euporia while mounted, since the charge attack has you twirl the twinblade while you're fully charging it, hitting several times per attack. You can get the first buff in one full hit charged heavy, and the second buff the next one. Obviously this doesn't work for most bosses where you can't ride Torrent, but this is how I optimize the mechanic of Euporia

[@joeparas]

[@ags8507]

using the uncharged ash of war should give the weapon a charge atleast, but this weapon design in a dlc with bosses like radahn and rellana seems like they didnt even think this thru, not to mention you are stuck in an animation for like 4 - 5 seconds IF you get it fully charged

This weapon kinda makes me wonder if the person who designed it is playing the same game as the rest of us.

I just picked it up with my fourth character, that has bare minimum dexterity. The other three all got killed after pikcing up the scadutree fragment leading up to it by that lion-headed freak and I could not be bothered to go back there with all that fromsoft platforming(tm) leading up to it. Seems like an interesting weapon though. Also, a lot of good weapons in concept in the dlc needs some buffs. Another that comes to mind is the Poleblade of the Bud, it's a neat concept but really falls short imo, an ash of war that gets cancelled with a gust of wind, other rot weapons proc it more consistently and faster, and the other weapons with similar movesets have either better ash of war or are infuseable and do more damage by default.

[@clarencezer]

I would use it more but being staggered out the ash of war and attempting to activate the beam really sucks. I feel like it should have had a more unique ash of war instead of a spinning weapon reskin + beam when luster is generated. Maybe if during it's spin, would be cool if it acted as a shield during that duration. I feel luster build up should be kept till being activated since it can decay when held overtime and as a bonus if the luster is just kept, could give it bonus damage.

Hope it gets buffed to 60s to get two tiers of its buff so you can actually use the full ash of war, or dont let it decay to begin with

[@ItsEctoPlasma]

The Sacred Relic Sword carried me trough the base game new game+ , new game++ and the DLC that and the blood Swarm incantation 😂

[@countryc0unt]

Feels like a lot of the unique weapon skills in the DLC are just not made with the DLC bosses in mind? Like all of them just take to long to do?

[@alexthesexmister]

This weapon looks so epic all they need to do is change is the description that luster doesn't empty till you die would be perfect. I want to use it on my main faith char when they do.

Youwy, I want to know, how does eternal sleep works?? is it like, different from normal sleep?

[@critzzbdo2963]

i still want to use this weapon, how should i build around it talismans stats, tears etc

[@heyo9309]

I feel like it should get faster to get to the second level the longer you attack, like the multi hit talismans

[@tryintoohard4674]

I think it’s constantly asked for because it’s the same weapon design as the “cut content” twinblade of miquella or whatever from the base game.

[@boredmagala5701]

So euporia buffs are like mosnter hunter longsword but overall instead of building up meter to use a combo that buffs you for a longer period of time, it is the damage buff

[@peridot5593]

I finished the dlc but this is the first time I heard of it. Where do I get it even?

[@purawastaken]

I didnt even know it could do that laser attack lmao. What were the creators thinking?

[@Borderlines]

Obsidian Lamina review please.

[@jeff3221]

Imo, if you're going to make the second tier so hard to get, the skill should be a fight ender. This is a secret weapon, dealing the worst damage type, with a convoluted skill and an average moveset. The tier 2 skill should deal a ridiculous amount of damage or they need to overhaul the whole activation mechanic and make it way easier to achieve

[@leoartifex8158]

Could you do a build for radahns greatswords?

[@OhZordan]

I think the reason people asked so many questions, is because it's the only legendary weapon in the dlc and if you upgrade it and use it, it's kinda meh.

[@purplefoir971]

3:34 was marika's body always there in the fight?

[@user-wg8hq7nw5c]

Blade of Abundance and Decay now identifies as Euporia

[@maxzajac7287]

i believe the weapon description states that it does not work on those who live in death, and i’ve gotten quite a few hits on the final boss w it, which makes me think the boss qualifies as one who lives in death. which i guess sorta makes sense

[@Laoruperteen18]

i wonder if this is fromsofts way of testing a mechanic for their next game to see how it lands. basically, how i figure it, is that to attempt to balance weapon skills, a main mechanic of the next game would be to charge your skills by being aggressive, and the more aggressive you are, the more reward you get by unleashing a stacked skill to help you in battle, or to slaughter everything, emphasis on aggression, like with bloodborn and its rally mechanic, but for weapon skills, instead of having a bunch of L2 warriors that spam skills and nothing else, this would definitely shift things up a bit and coax people into USING the movesets of your weapons instead of relying on a single crutch.

[@emerald1476]

What’s the best scaling for this weapon

[@tragiic333]

They should make the buff work like the dark moon great sword. When you press the ash of war button, it gives you the buff. Then when you press it again it does the skill but then takes the buff away. Don’t know why they didn’t implement it in this way.

[@domin8tion651]

Idk I like this feature where it rewards you with hitting attacks but the reward is really underwhelming

[@MrKrabbs2009]

I liked euporia so much I used it on last dlc boss, even though I assumed it would resist holy (turns out it doesn't), and honestly the jump R2 damage didn't seem that different from the colossal weapons so it wasn't as much of a handicap I thought. I still never stance broken it and never even thought about using L2. Honestly kinda sad how not necessarily bad, but mid this legendary weapon damage/stance damage is, especially considering you literally can't put frost/bleed or even poison on it, there's no real reason to use it. Wish for the buffs since it's so cool and I want to power stance 2 euporias.
