Elden Ring DLC - STRONGEST BEST Most Broken Builds After Patch (Shadow of the Erdtree Best Builds)

Today we're going to be looking at some of

the best new builds after the recent

patch, which actually nerfed some of the

previous builds. With the new patch,

there's been a few nerfs, such as the

Bloodfiend Arm doesn't quite do as much

damage as it used to do, and some of the

other builds that were kind of broken are

now less broken. However, despite some

adjustments, some of these builds are

still very strong depending on what kind

of build you have and what kind of

talismans and weapons you choose. So with

that being said, we're going to have a

look at some ways that we can adjust to

these new nerfs and updates and make these

builds viable once again. So in the first

build, we're going to be focusing on

Impenetrable Thorns. This is still a

really good and viable build if you just

do a few adjustments. And for the

talismans, we're gonna go for the Primal

Glintstone Blade— reduces the amount of FP

it consumes. Godfrey Icon increases

charged spells and skills. Lord of Blood's

Exaltation increases attack power when

there's blood loss going on, which there

will be. And Beloved Stardust reduces the

casting speed for sorcery stuff, so that's

going to basically reduce the speed that

it takes to cast it and reduce the amount

of FP. And it's also going to trigger

Blood Loss. So if you do your buffs like,

uh, Golden Vow is pretty good. And for the

Wondrous Physick, I put the Magic Cracked

Shrouding Tear onto it so I get boosted

magic attacks. And then all you have to do

is just stand here and spam, uh,

Impenetrable Thorns like this, and you can

basically one-shot the weaker enemies like

that. It will trigger blood, and the

closer enemies are, you'll get like this

tower of spikes coming out which does

simultaneous damage all at once, which is

really good. Like that, you see, there's

like a tower of thorns. It's really

powerful. And because we have reduced

speed to cast, it means we can just spam

this over and over again at the enemies if

they don't die straight away. So the

damage is pretty good on this. And the

range is also really good.

So this hasn't been affected too much by

the updates or the nerfs, whichever way

you want to think of it. So you can just

kind of spam it at these guys, and it also

staggers and pushes them back. One more

should do it. Yep, see, even these big

heavy armored knights don't last too long

against it. Now it does use quite a lot of

FP, so make sure you've got enough

Cerulean Tear flasks. And even against

this guy, shouldn't be too much of a

problem. The blood procs

are really nice, see?

Yeah, so this build's still pretty good.

Another really good build and weapons are

the Rellana's Twin Blades. As you can see,

the special move is you've got either blue

magic attacks like that, which do like a

ranged swish, or you've got heavy attack

where you use the flame blade to do a

twirl like that. So you've got an option

between fire and magic. So because of

that, we're going to go for these Wondrous

Physick, Magic Shrouding Cracked Tear,

and also the Flaming Shrouding Cracked

Tear. And for the talismans, Ritual Sword

Talisman, Godrick Icon, Alexander Shard,

and Fire Scorpion Charm, so we can max out

fire and magic damage. And we're going to

buff ourselves with Flame, Grant Me

Strength and Golden Vow, and we do some

pretty good damage with this and also pop

the flasks. So as you can see, we're

buffed up, ready to go, and we're gonna

do a flame attack on this guy.

So do like a 12, you can one-shot these

guys in just a couple 12s. And then you

can like ranged, you can do like a ranged

magic attack or not, or just do like a

cross thing. I pressed the wrong button.

Or you can do like a ranged magic attack

like that. If the wall

doesn't block everything and I fell off

the edge. That was

such a terrible example of what the weapon

can do. Okay, trying again. You can do a

ranged magic attack like that. Oh my god,

why can't I do it? Like that,

and it does pretty good damage as well.

And the basic attacks are pretty cool as

well. So it's just a twin blade.

Oh my god, I keep pressing the wrong

fucking button.

Yeah, it's a pretty good build if you can

get the hang of it. And then

we do ranged magic attack like

that. Why does it not do the third one?

Yeah, you do a third if you keep pressing

it. You do like a combo of magic attacks.

Next up, we have my favorite weapon, the

Blood Fiend's Arm. You still can't really

go wrong with this weapon. Now what you

want to put onto this weapon is actually

Royal Knight's Resolve. So you go into

here, Royal Knight's Resolve, and to do

max damage, either magic or fire is pretty

good. I actually prefer I think with my

specific build, I think Flame Art would do

much better than anything else. So I put

Flame Art, and then I go to my Wand of

Physick. I coat it with the Bloodsucking

Tear and the Flame Shrouding Tear. Then

for talismans, Godfrey Icon, Alexander

Shard, Fire Scorpion Charm, and then

switch this one out for the— actually,

you don't want those. You want Axe

Talisman and Two-Handed Sword Talisman,

and also Uh, Crusade Insignia, it's pretty

good as well. So we're not going to do any

special moves, we're just going to do the

heavy attack. So then you buff up,

buff up, Flame Gourmet Strength,

flask,

flask. Okay, flask, and then

heavy attack. Royal Knight's Resolve, and

then you want to sneak up on him. Watch

this. Oh,

14,000 damage! Did you see that damage?

This weapon still is really good. I don't

know what they did to nerf it, but you can

still do some pretty good damage. Oh,

17,000! Oh my god, this weapon's

insane. I can nearly 4-shot kill bosses

with this. Look, you get Crusade Insignia

buff and

Royal Knight's Resolve. It's pretty damn

good. Watch this, watch. Are you watching?

Oh my god, I didn't kill either of them.

Oh my god, what?

Neither of them died? Oh my god. So

there's a place if you go down here It's

got some jar enemies that have a lot of

health, and it's more fun to see how much

damage you can do because you can't really

one-shot them. So if you really want to

test your damage, go down here. There's a

big jar guy. Watch this. Oh,

I did one-shot him! 13,000 damage.

Usually those jar guys are pretty tanky.

I guess nothing can withstand being

one-shot. By the chicken wing.

There's one— oh yeah, I forgot, but I keep

forgetting about this one. Oh, even that

one gets one-shot.

Is there one here? There's one down here,

I remember. Oh, it staggered— oh, it

didn't. Yeah, this weapon's really good.

Still really good build for one-shotting

things. And least

but not last, we have the Fire Knight's

Greatsword with the Eruption Flame Art.

So Eruption basically just does this,

blows the ground up with lava. So as you

can imagine, really good with a fire

build, and Faith, Int, Strength

combination works pretty well with it to

boost your damage. So we can go Flame,

Gravy, Strength,

pop your flask. Top up your FP,

go two-handed, sneak up on

the enemy. Now watch this— oh,

3,000! And then do a follow-up of a couple

thousand. See how much damage that AOE

does? Oh, it's not very good. And they

really should put like a fence or some

railings around those edges. So easy to

get poked off the edge. So again,

what you want to do— Flame

Grant Me Strength— and

then we go smash them this time.

There, that's more like it. One shot,

one shot, one shot.

Oh, one shot,

one shot!

And then sneak up on these guys too.

Missed it. Oh crap.

Oh my God, oh my God, one shot!

One shot. Oh, the DoT damage

from the lava finished him off. Pretty

good build. And lastly but not lastly,

you've got the Dry Leaf Arts with the Palm

Blast and Flame Art. So you can do some

really good Palm Blasts using this build.

Where is it? Uh, there it is,

and you want to equip Your skills build.

So you want Alexander and,

uh, Godfrey. Yep.

Flame, Strength, Gunrun,

uh, Flask.

And then watch this.

Watch. Hot! 10,000 damage! That is insane

damage. Kick him in the face,

elbow him in the stomach.

Watch this insane damage.

Oh my god, 10,000 damage!

I actually don't notice any difference

after the patch. It feels exactly the

same. I might not even have the patch

downloaded actually. One-shot everything,

this stupid game. I thought this game's

supposed to be hard. Everyone's like, oh,

Dark Souls game's so difficult, and then

you literally just run around one-shotting

everything with the most OP builds.

So the easiest game ever played, because

you get stuck on the boss, you just go

level up and get more skill points and

then choose a build that one-shots them,

like a full tank build. I literally just

tanked the last boss with full plate armor

and the shield, and I just did nothing. I

just stood there and then I defeated him.
