Overview

Daniel showcases prominent weapons from Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, demonstrating movesets, affinities, locations, and damage effectiveness.

The Bloodfiend Arm is a colossal weapon located at Prospect Town that achieves high damage and blood loss buildup when paired with an Arcane build, Royal Knight's Resolve, and Blood affinity.

Dryleaf Arts is a hand-to-hand weapon acquired after defeating an NPC at Morth Ruins via a gesture, pairing the Palm Blast skill with Occult or fire setups.

Red Bear's Claws, obtained from a mini-boss bear north of Morth Ruins, deliver rapid staggering strikes.

The standard Great Katana provides versatility with skills like Piercing Fang, whereas Dragon Hunter's Great Katana and Rakshasa's Great Katana show underwhelming performance.

The Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword, located in the Ruined Forge of Starfall Pass, executes a charging stab followed by an explosion scaling with magic damage.
