Elden Ring Hand-to-Hand combat - How to Build a FIRE Monk Build (Shadow of the Erdtree Dryleaf Arts)

Charge up Palm Blast. Oh,

8,800! Charge up Palm Blast.

8,000 damage! That is insane damage.

Oh my God, I couldn't see how many

numbers, but there's a lot. I nearly

one-shot him. Hello, welcome back to a new

video. So today I want to show you my Dry

Leaf Arts Fire Monk playstyle. I can do

some insane damage using all of the buffs

and the armor sets and all the stuff. I

can do like 10,000 damage. I'm gonna show

how much damage I can do with all these

stuff in combination. So first of all,

your armor set, you want to get the

Rakshasa armor set. And the reason why is

because this has special ability where it

says increases damage dealt to foes but

increases damage taken by you. So we don't

care about the damage we take because

we're gonna be dishing out all the damage

really. And then for the talismans, you

want the Fire Scorpion Charm. The Ritual

Sword Talisman increases attack power when

your health is at max. Godfrey Icon

increases charged spells and skills.

Shard of Alexander greatly boosts attack

power of skills. So we're going to be

using skills. And also Oil Pots increases—

it soaks enemies with oil, increases the

amount of fire damage they take. And get

your Dry Leaf Arts and max mine out to

level 25 to do maximum damage. And then

the Affinity of War I mean the Ashes of

War, you want to put on the Palm Blast

with the affinity of fire. So I have to

unselect it first, that fire, not flame

arts but fire. So that's all our buffs

done. And you're also going to have some

incantations. You want Flame, Grant Me

Strength, and also Golden Vow. And for

your flask, obviously you want the fire

cracked shroud thing, Flamecracked Shroud,

to increase fire damage. Now watch how

much damage I do. So and do my Golden Vow,

Flame Grant Me Strength, Wondrous Flask,

and then equip your oil pot, and then go

stealth, and then chuck your oil pot at

these guys. Now charge up Palm Blast.

8,800 damage. And then this guy— oh

my God, 10,605 damage! That's insane

damage. And then this guy 6,000.

We did slightly less because we're not at

full health anymore, but you can see with

this combo the damage output is actually

insane. And that's just with Palm Blast.

Watch with just punching him in the face.

You just absolutely wreck them. And watch

this, look,

like 4 hits and they're down.

And the speed of the punches are so quick.

So what you want to do is Not one hand.

So this is one hand, it's pretty slow,

but if you equip double hand, it's even

faster. See that? And you can block like

this. So that is some pretty good damage.

And then watch this. So these guys here—

well, that one's weak, but this guy's

really tough, the one on the right. Watch

this damage. Oh my god,

5,000! He can't even get up. And then

finish him off with a heavy attack. He

doesn't even know what hit him. This

playstyle is so funny and the damage is

crazy. I mean, watch this. You don't even

have to aim at them and it does this AoE

damage knocking them back. And yeah,

the output of the damage is crazy. Watch

this. Bye-bye. Force push

you off the edge. See ya. And then

you got a tough guy up here. Watch this,

oil pot him. Dodge this,

that's gonna hurt. Damn, that hurt. Oh,

watch it. Oh my god, uh-huh, he did insane

damage to me. So you do take a lot of

damage, but you do dish it out too. So

again, you want to buff up.

You probably don't need to buff up this

much against these guys, but still, you

You want to see the insane damage? Watch

this. See ya!

8,000 damage. And then this guy, just

jumping kick him.

Look, one hit staggers them back so much.

Heal up.

Look, you just beat the crap out of him.

Oh my god, heavy attacks stagger them so

quickly. And then watch

this, watch.

Oh my god, you can do another one before

he even gets up. You can start charging up

the next Palm Blast. This tactic is so

cheesy. You know the Mausoleum bosses? I

can just spam Palm Blasts on them and And

they can't even get up. Every time they

get up, I give them another palm blast.

And I defeated the mausoleum bosses

without even taking any damage. I wish I

could show you, but I already killed them.

Bye-bye. So the guy up here was pretty

tough, but if I don't waste time doing an

oil pot and I just do a palm blast, watch

this. Oh my god, I can 2-shot him.

Oh, he got me. If I staggered him, I

shouldn't have done a second Palm Blast.

So if you go to this part of the map, it

is in the Shadowkeep. There's a lot of

these red guys. Might be one walking

around. There's one. So they're pretty

tough, but I found if you just spam Palm

Blast, they are a cake of walk.

Watch this. So fully buff up. The way— the

reason why they're tricky is because they

do such fast attacks. And they keep

staggering you. But if you Palm Blast

them, they'll just— they'll keep falling

out. Watch this, watch. Charge it up.

2-shot. Oh my god,

that wasn't perfect because he got quite a

lot of hits on me, but still. Now another

way to do it is you wear heavier armor,

but then you lose the damage buff from

Rakshasa's armor. I think there's another

red guy. In here. Oh no, it's just an

NPC. I don't know if I can kill the NPC,

would it matter? Oh crap,

I don't know if that's gonna mess up the

Ran out of FP now. Does it

matter?

Maybe it's a good thing I didn't kill

them. Or are they enemies now? I kind of

want to see what she drops. Or was it he?

That armor looks pretty cool though. Oh

crap, it spawned me right here and she's

attacking me. So I guess they hate me now.

I couldn't buff up properly. Hold on.

Okay, let's have a duel.

Ouch. Oh my God, oh my God, Palm Blast!

Heal, heal, heal! Palm Blast is good for

letting you heal as well, and then charge

up heavy attack or do some punches.

Ouch. Oh, got me again. This NPC is pretty

tough if you can't buff up. The problem is

it's spawning me right in front of her.

Look, it spawned me right here. Ouch. Oh,

it just 2-shot me. This NPC's tough. I

need to spawn at the other place maybe.

What if I don't buff? Oh my god, before I

even load in.

Palm Blast. Oh, I can't do anything. It

spawns me right next to her. She starts

attacking me before I even finish loading

into the game. If I run away— Palm

Blast, heal. My Palm Blast

isn't doing much damage now I'm not

buffed. I can do a flask here and

heal and then charge up another Palm

Blast. Out, heal. Oh, I might be able to

do this. Palm Blast again. See, this is

how I cheese all the tough enemies. Oh,

she's dead. Got you now, bitch. Oh,

you dodged it!

Oh my god, what? Oh,

that was close. I couldn't— oh my god,

the red guy! Get lost, does not concern

you. I want to get that loot.

Punch him in the gut. How did that not

finish him? Another Palm Blast. Give me

that loot. I got the Freya's Greatsword.

I got the Freya's Helm, Armor, Gauntlets,

and the Greaves. Damn, that's sexy

Greaves. So I just killed an NPC. I don't

know if that affects the story or not.
