Elden Ring DLC - How To Build a Godlike ARCANE STRONGEST Build (Shadow of the Erdtree Builds)

Hello, welcome back to a new video. So I

figured out this Arcane build that does

insane damage with 2-handed weapons,

and there's 2 weapons I want to show you

today that scale really well with Arcane.

Number one is the Blood Fiend's Arm, and

secondly we have the Ancient Meteoric or

Greatsword. So starting off with the Blood

Fiend's Arm, you can do some insane damage

if you put Royal Knight's Resolve with the

Occult affinity. So Occult basically buffs

your weapon damage insanely if you've got

loads of Arcane. So you can see the Arcane

scaling goes from D to now S tier,

and you can do nearly 900 damage when it's

buffed with Arcane Occult. So we're going

to go for Occult first, and then I'll show

you the other ones like Blood and Poison

also scale really well with Arcane. You

can see the blood buildup with Blood is

223, which is an insane blood loss

buildup. Rating. But first, we're gonna go

for Occult, and I'll show you how much

damage I did. Nearly 10,000 damage with

all the buffs. So I'll show all the buffs

first. First of all, the armor— you want

to get the Rakshasa armor set. Now this

gives you a bonus damage buff. So you can

see here it says increases damage dealt to

foes but increases damage taken by the

wearer. And then for the talismans, we go

for Ritual Sword Talisman— buffs your

attack power when you've got max HP. Got

this new DLC talisman, the Two-Handed

Sword Talisman. I got

a bit confused because the name, it says

Two-Handed Sword Talisman, but the effects

description says enhances attacks with

two-handed weapons. And I can confirm this

buffs the attack power for not just

two-handed swords but also for clubs and

other two-handed weapons. So I got a bit

confused with the name. Anyway, next we

have the Outer God Heirloom. So this is

another DLC talisman, buffs your arcane

even more. And Axe Talisman enhances

charged attacks, so we're going to be

doing heavy attacks, charged up heavy

attacks, should buff that. And then for

the Wondrous Physick Flask, we have

Stonebarb Cracked Tear, it's going to make

it more likely to break enemy stances.

And also Strength Knot Crystal Tear boosts

strength. And then we have a spell,

Golden Vow, increases our attack and

defensive abilities. So when you have

everything buffed up, it's actually

insane. I've been running through this

little area testing out different builds,

and this has to be by far the easiest

run-through using this build. So you pop

your flask, Golden Vow, go double-handed,

uh, Royal Knight's Resolve. So you're

ready now for a massive heavy attack.

Watch this. Oh,

9,173 damage! I think that's the highest

damage I've ever done. Maybe you can get

to like 10,000 with other buffs.

7,624. Yeah, the damage is crazy.

Even without Royal Knight's Resolve, you

can basically 2-shot them like that.

And then jumping heavy attack, 1-shot.

It's crazy the amount of damage this

weapon does. Charge up heavy attack,

4,000. You can 1-shot them even without

Royal Knight's Resolve. But against these

tough enemies like this one over here, I

think you can one-shot him. Watch. Oh my

God, I one-shot him!

That's a tough enemy that usually takes a

lot of hits to take them down, but I just

one-shot him with Royal Knight's Resolve

maxed out Arcane. So I'll show you my

build. It's basically just maxed out—

well, not quite, but nearly maxed out

Arcane to 83. Put a bunch in strength,

put a bunch in vigor and mind, a little

bit in endurance, bit in dexterity. And

yeah, that's basically the build. You

could probably do more damage if you put

less in vigor, endurance, and put it more

into strength and arcane, but I think we

got enough arcane and strength really. So

you can see here we're doing physical

damage of 319 plus 600. That's thanks to

the extra arcane. It's just crazy. Watch

this. Charge that up, run in,

one-shot them— well, nearly one-shot them—

and then heal up back to full.

Run in here, one-shot.

It also staggers them really easily. And

this guy around here is a bit tough. Him—

oh, but I can nearly one-shot him.

Two-shot him in 2 shots. And then this

final guy over here shooting you is kind

of annoying. Gotta keep moving. I can't

stand still to heal. Oh, he got me again.

Do a Knight's Resolve. I can actually

move. Okay, we've got him now.

Charge up heavy attack, light attack,

staggered. Easy. I now changed the Ashes

of War. I changed it to the same one,

Royal Knight's Resolve, but this time I

put the Blood Affinity onto it. And look,

I've got a whopping 222 blood loss

buildup. I can trigger and proc the blood

loss explosion blood thing in just 2 hits.

And I put the Lord of Blood's Exaltation

talisman to increase attack power when

there's blood loss. And there's one of

these red guys over here. They're usually

kind of tough, they've got a lot of

health. I'm just gonna run up to him with

Roll Knight's Resolve and try and whack

him in the face and see what happens.

Watch this. 1,

2, 3. Okay,

3rd hit. The 3rd hit triggered the blood,

not the 2nd hit. So it takes like 3 hits

on light attacks. I don't know if heavy

attacks would trigger it faster or not.

And then you can try some of the other

attacks, like Lion's Claw is pretty good.

It does this, just smashes

them into the ground, knocks them back

too. The damage is insane just when you're

not even fully buffed. Without Royal

Knight's Resolve, you do a lot less

damage, but you don't really need it

unless it's like a really tough enemy.

This move is crazy— Lion's Claw.

Watch this, it just one-shots everything,

and if they don't die from it, they're

knocked down anyway. So watch these 2 guys

again. Sneak up on them and then just

smash him into the ground. 2 hits.

Well, it would have been 2 hits if I

didn't miss that one. Yeah, 2 hits.

Okay, next I want to show you the Ancient

Meteoric Ore Greatsword. This looks really

cool, and you get it from this place over

here. Go down here and then go here,

Ruined Forge of Starfall Pass. It's a

little dungeon with a few puzzles and

levers you pull. You get this and it does

this cool special attack, thrust and

explosive magic damage. So we're going to

change our talismans a little bit because

it's a skill. You want Alexander Shard,

you want Godfrey Icon— where

is it? You also want that talisman that

boosts magic attack, but I can't get it

because I killed the NPC that gives you

the quest. And also I put the Magic

Shrouding Cracks here on the Wondrous

Flask boosts magic attack. So I'm fully

buffed Golden Vow, and watch how much

damage this does. It's insane,

like 8,000 damage in total with the thrust

and the explosion. The thrust has such

great range as well. It uses up a lot of

FP points, that is one thing,

so you might want to buff your FP points

if you can. So watch this.

So watch these 2 guys here. Now they

take a lot of damage. Watch this.

Oh, I nearly one-shot them. Not quite

though. I don't know why the AOE is not

hitting that guy, but I still think the

Blood Fiend's Blood Arm is still the best,

so I put this new one on. Crag Blade is

also an interesting Ash of War. So

basically what Cragblade does is it

increases the amount of damage, the base

damage on the weapon that it does. It also

staggers enemies faster than usual. So if

you put blood onto it, it becomes a pretty

good weapon and builds up blood attacks

and also staggers the enemy. So if you

look at this, it does 305 plus 437

currently, but if we enable Cragblade,

it will now do Um,

305 plus 548, and it's doing blood attacks

as well. So if you go and find an enemy

like this red guy— oops—

see how much faster you can stagger them

like that? And I think I also got a blood

proc. Look at that, you just take them

down so easily and you get the blood proc

so quickly. You stagger them quickly too.

Everything's just quick. I have another

blood guy over here.

Usually on the 3rd strike you get blood

proc and you knock them down, or a crit

like that. It's so easy now. I can't

believe I had problems with them before.

So Royal Knight's Resolve is great if you

want to do insane damage on one hit, do

like 8 9k damage, then you've got to keep

re-enabling it. Um, Blood Affinity with

something like Cragblade is good if you

want each hit to be more powerful than

usual without having to buff it every

time. I now put Cragblade onto it, but I

chose Occult Affinity, and now my weapon

does 319 plus 723 base damage.

Look at this, one shot is crazy.
