U know what I love about these videos? It’s not a dude saying “most op build ever! Look at the damage!!” And then he’s got 1hp, every damage buff possible applied. That’s not anything practical
One of the builds that mostly works in lower NG+ because bolt of gransax deals not enough damage in higher NG+ you can still use the red lightning bolts but put another gravel stone seal in the other hand
I searched for this vid after seeing the trailer had a lot of dex weapons and faith spells. But I still can’t decide if I should go full dex or full faith because i want to maximize my damage
Go full dex to maximize physical damage for DLC, keen affinity can always be buffed further but you’ll miss out on physical damage with full faith. Invest enough faith for the spells you like the most and off hand a seal that buffs that damage type. My stats going into dlc are 75 dex with 46 faith.
just wondering here, what attacks would you do against the more fast paced bosses who don't provide as much distance and punish time, bosses like malenia or redwolf.
i had the same problem i thought it was some youtube magic but you can actually hold down the left trigger or whatever your ash of war button is to charge it and it does more damage
Out of curiosity, roughly what spells and weapons do I use in order before getting the bolt of gransax? Right now i'm using the winged scythe and just beat Radahn, but I would like to know what sort of buffs I should be aiming for at this part of the game.
I rumours are true this build sadly won't work in the DLC because it'll have a Sekiro styled leveling system to prevent overleveled plays from steamrolling through the DLC. Still a fun build to use nonetheless, thank you
Does this build scales more with dex or faith, cause in my playthrough I have a build of str and faith and I have 40 faith and these incantations don't really do much damage. I'm so confused on what to do with these incantations
Awesome build Ashen one…. Will try this today…. Off topic… but have you or will you ever do a Dark souls 3 op build guide? Just curious as I just got DS3 ?
I've been using a variation of this build for a while now, currently level 156 in NG+1, my stat distribution is as follows: Vigor: 45 Mind: 31 Endurance: 27 Strength: 22 Dexterity: 43 Intelligence: 9 Faith: 50 Arcane: 8 Depending on the weapons you'll be using, you may want to reallocate some more points to Faith or Dex to boost your damage a little more. My damage output is high while still allowing a lot of flexibility/playstyles with a variety of weapons I use: bolt of gransax, black knife, great scythe, gravel stone seal, antspur rapier and longbow I have also experimented with the following weapons with great results: Dragon King's cragblade, Godslayer's greatsword, Golden Order Greatsword
Care to elaborate? Because we don't know a whole lot other than what Miyazaki said in the letter he wrote talking about the DLC, and he didn't really explain how the new power scaling would cause builds to be ineffective.
@@SuspiciouslyMissingSock he said he wanted the player to feel the difficulty one again keeping in mind that the character builds would be close to endgame. This was mentioned in the interview. So it's very likely that the power scaling is meant to switch up the difficulty.
We always start with what's best for stats to hit 150 and then break to RL200. So, if you rolled Faith and Dex back to hit an overall RL of 150 then Vagabond would be best class :)
i was trying out the curved scavengers swords bleed buuld and im doing crappy damage at +18 swords with 50 arcane and 40 dex, with a +18 finger seal... ima try this... im at level like 140 or so, what would be the attributes at around that level?
they’ve said there making it so we won’t be able to one shot or do ungodly amounts of damage in the dlc so let’s hope this build stays broken for those people who are gunna really struggle🤣
I'd put around 3, 4 at most because you should do enough damage that you don't have to spam much. For trash mobs you can just use the regular melee to avoid spending a bunch of FP.
Are all the clips from NG+? because if its NG1 (which i am assuming) it will be pretty misleading on your viewers, since they will do half maybe even less the dmg shown in the video on their own gameplay
@AantiiiHero it does boost lightning by 10% correct, the tree seal has higher faith scaling at high faith stats, I guess the gravel stone seal is better at lower faith stats I guess?
I tried the build but im not doing nearly enough of the damage he is doing im also using all of the stats he is using and im using the talismans and everything else
Just equip a gravel stone seal in your left and right hand you can only get 1 seal per playthrough so either go into new game or have someone drop you one
Do you know if ancient lightning dragon strike still works with the Godfrey talisman? Half the people I talk to say no it doesn’t work anymore. It got Nerfed and half of the people say yes. Maybe I’ll just stop being lazy and do some testing.
Faith/dex lighting build is not a level 150 build. It’s a level 200 build. You can do a 150 version of it but it’s going to be asf and not recommended.
Hey man, i actually used this build more or less between level 100-150. You can probably clean up the stats some but if your want i can send you the build. I basically went 70 dex and then dumped stats to my personal needs. @@Rick-cs3jt
Isn't it better to have 80 dex if you are going to main Bolt of Gransax, it's weapon art scales with dex. If you are maining incants 80 faith is better tho
I've havent gotten the 200 levels that you've got, and my Gransax is only level 6, but i dont get how you get 3000+ damage on a single lightning ive got dex and faith level 40-45.. i havent gotten the Alexander talisman, but im at 1100 maaaaybe 1800 with the buffs? i just dont get it
Bruh.. i actually made this build exactly like its shown in the video except that i also leveled end to 22 in order to use malekith´s set and i also got mimic tear+10 and let me tell you this build does NOT melt Malenia and im not even in NG (im level 205). I think im gonna have to switch to Blasphemous blade build that one really does melt her, any advice?
