Elden Ring DLC - How To Build an INSANE DAMAGE ARCANE Build (Shadow of the Erdtree)

Daniel presents an Arcane-focused Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC build centered on the Blood Fiend's Arm, a two-handed hammer obtained from large giants near Prospect Town.

The build utilizes an Occult affinity with Royal Knight's Resolve to achieve S scaling in Arcane and nearly 900 base physical attack power, complemented by specific talismans, Rakshasa armor pieces, and a Wondrous Physick mix to deliver charged heavy attacks reaching over 9,200 damage while elevating item discovery to 183.

Daniel tests the build while traversing castle areas, shortcuts, and ladders, finding that an unfamiliar staircase loops back to a Site of Grace, critiquing castle moat architecture, and recalling a dragon portrait behind an invisible wall.

Castle exploration, navigation, and architectural critique.

Daniel executes a buff routine of Golden Vow, drinking the Wondrous Physick flask, two-handing the Blood Fiend's Arm, and triggering Royal Knight's Resolve before hitting enemies with charged heavy attacks.

Daniel explores a staircase that loops back to the Site of Grace and accidentally suffers fall damage from rolling instead of descending a ladder.

Daniel is uncertain whether wearing only two pieces of the Rakshasa armor set activates its damage bonus.

Daniel is unsure why an initial strike yielded around 7,200 damage rather than over 9,000, questioning whether incorrect talismans were equipped.

Daniel is uncertain what lies at the bottom of an elevator and whether an unexplored staircase leads to a hidden boss.
