Is the Reduvia Dagger the Best Dagger in Elden Ring? 

Stabbing t-rex dogs with blood knife Elden ring is one odd game ngl

Another good one is power stance blood Nagakiba bc the base buildup is 84 and if you put double slash ash of war on it, you have a better Rivers of blood.

I just started a dex arc build a couple days ago and really wanted to base it around reduvia, life saver

Another fun Dex + Arc build that I've been messing around with is a vamp/lifesteal build: Blood-infused Butchering Knife with Wild Strikes, and Serpent God's CS in your off-hand. For talismans: Ritual Shield, Swaddling Cloth, Taker's Cameo (swap for something else against bosses), and whatever fourth talisman you want. Optionally, if you defeat Malenia early enough, you can throw on her Great Rune as well (shame those don't carry over to NG+). Hold L2 and walk forward menacingly. Bleed procs & Wild Strikes' hyper armor give you all the damage output you need, so you're free to stack healing & defense. Crimson Amber/Erdtree's Favor are good, since you're healing for a % of your max health, and Dragoncrest pairs really well with Ritual Shield's 30% damage negation.

Try dual wielding them. The bleed is insane

I just need to say if your going for this build now (in this point in time or later) dont go for rotten winged sword insignia, go for millicents prosthesis and get the winged sword insignia instead since you cant get both from millicent. And either wait for ng+ to get it or just have a friend drop it if they dont need it themselves.

People hype up Rivers of Blood but honestly Reduvia is carrying me through my DEX+ARC playthrough more effectively. Kind of the odd thing about this game, usually it's the early game weapons that end up being the most useful.

Reduvia + scorpions stinger for bleed and rot, unless you have 2 blood blades, then there is no reason to not equip both daggers to dual-wield

I would replace flame grant me strength with howl of shabriri since reduvia doesn't have fire damage the howl gives more damage

I actually prefer bloodboil aromatic to FGMS, since Reduvia deals exclusively physical damage you're missing out on 1/2 of the spell. Bloodboil also stacks with GV, but FGMS is probably more accessable than perfumes

It's +15 dex as the cracked tear gives +10 and Millicent Prosthesis gives +5

Reduvia with a blood misericorde is my favorite dagger powerstance

Challenge! Beat this: Quality Banished knight Greatsword Storm Blade 60 dex/str (Everything I see focuses on Dex OR Str but Storm Blade and BKGS scale with quality so Dex AND Str must be better)

Been running this exact same build with two reduvia’s and two nagakibas

Keep the Scorpions Stinger up your sleeve to get them with rot too, if you want. Has a great ability to proc it fast too. You can also combine the fire damage on a lot of these bleed/arcane weapons by pairing with a cold enchantment, allowing you to get repeated frostbite bursts on top of the bleed...

Here’s a challenge for you, make a highwayman build. All you get is either a dagger and poison pots

Way to improve damage is change out golden vow for rallying standard from the commanders standard item, its just a bit more but if youre looking for the best it will suffice. Alternatively you could exchange it for howl of shabari if youre confident

I suggest giant hair whip thingy.

1 think I didn't see you note is that the bleed buildup two handing with the ash is enough to proc in 1 hit against most bosses because of the proc changes they made in 1.09

Amour plastique or the napoleon song I guess: In my mind everything goes wild, I lose myself in your eyes I drown myself in the wave of your loving gaze I only want your soul going wild on my skin A flower, a woman in your heart, Roméo I'm nothing but your name, the tormenting breath Of our bodies in the dark moving slowly

Can you please do the Naga kiba next?😊

I just recently did a run with this on a new character and holy shit I never knew it was this damn strong

You can also do wakizashi and add the same ash of war (i think blood blade?

Hey there! Thanks for the video, i have a maxed reduvia with 99 arcane and 99 dex, i want to squeeze out as much power as i can from my buidl so im gonna combine all the tips including yours and make the strongest reduvvia in existence

I’m pretty sure this would work for pvp as well

Show us this build fighting a boss, not random easy enemies

Its gonna be a fun build

This is literally the exact build I made but with double uchigatanas lol

Damm this is the same as your build for eleonora's poleblade

Can you do the bloodhounds fang please

Honestly for the the best dagger BY FAR is the Glintstone Kris. Its AOW is so damn good.

Yes I use this combo for very blood build period

if youre doing parries use the misiricorde

My first play through i got one of these early immediately logged off created a new character and went and got a 2nd its r2 while duel weilding is ridiculous.

what do you use for your of hand?

NG + mandatory

Statistics say it’s no other daggers even come close

Nagakiba with blood flame blade has INSANE burst damage

Who would win A Blade made by the dark Moon A pointy little Blade

I prefer the Misericorde becauee it can be buffed elementally and has the 140 crit

make the golem halberd better please?

Do erdsteal daggers next

Okay… but aren’t Millicent’s Prosthesis and the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia mutually exclusive? Have to go through the full New Game Plus to get this build together, so it NEEDS to be broken to justify that amount of work.

Dual wild is broken 🤯

If you are hight level put something else than the dex tear it will just be useless

Howl of shabriri is a better buff than FGMS, but it costs way more faith. If you are going to use the spell golden vow it is only 2 faith points away tho

Clean rot rapier

I like to combine Reduvia dagger with another dagger with a blood ash of war since dual daggers do attack way faster also because of this every other hit is a bleed trigger, raw damage is not a lot but bleed triggers so often you won't need raw damage at all, I put most of my stats on Endurance to get as much as equip load + stamina to be able to wear heaviest armor for high poise and protection but still remain at light load, I rn have 99 endurance with full beastmaster armor except for head piece, I traded head piece for a seal to cast incantations I believe this build is much better than other bleed builds due to being able to get your entire gear right at the start in Limgrave, for early game started as samurai then I used Misericorde (can be found in stormveil castle) killed Bernahl for his armor, got the reduvia and my entire gear set up until the end of the game was done rest is just finding talismans

Except kinda falls off when you meet Radagon and Elden Beast

Can you do a blood hound sword build or making it the best it can be

Just wondering have you done sword of milos yet if not please do

Howl would be better than flame grant me strength

What about stats? Specially for Reduvia. Any advice pls. Thank you.

Ummm, you cant get Milicents Prosthesis and Rottwn Winged Sword insignia unless your going NG+

BOLT OF GRANSAX PLEASE

I could be wrong but I believe Commanders Standard gives a better atk buff than golden vow.

+5 Dexterity

Honesty I don’t see rotten winged being as useful with this build since you’re not going to be able to spam the AoW enough for it to proc consistently. I’d switch it out for either Godfrey’s icon (increased attack power with skills) this will not only make the build that much more stronger. And imo Millicent prosthesis although it’s really good for dex builds I’d rather switch it for ritual sword talisman for that extra 20% damage increase at full health. It takes a bit of extra skill but as long as you can keep full health you’ll melt bosses even faster. Instead of milicents prosthesis you can substitute it with the dex knot crystal tear which does the same thing albeit on a time duration and if you wanna even do more bonkers damage howl of shibriri can be added on (although I have yet to fully test this but since you need to stat into faith a bit anyway for the better golden vow/flame grant me) you might as well hit that 33 mark. Lord of blood is good because of the bleed procing instantly on each strike (especially if you’re close enough to hit with both the blade and the AoW) and because of all the damage buffs you can guarantee most bosses to be dead in 5 hits or less. You can also increase the damage by using the blue dancer charm (since it’s a dagger weapon with low equip weight) and dragon seal (0 equip weight) for extra damage if you’re comfortable doing runs without armour for that sweet juicy light load. Varres mask imo isn’t really useful because it only increases dex although you can use it with blue dancer without much of a damage falloff so it could still be worth it. I’ve been having a ton of fun with this dagger on my most recent playthrough although it’s a little too broken with the setup I described. (Be prepared for 90% of bosses to die in well under a minute)

Are you still doing elden bling?

Do brick hammer

So can you do the builds on ng+7 tho

Please do dismounter please

Make great stars better pls

would replacing shard of alex with blue dance charm and unequip all but reduvia be worth it?

Can u try ur best to upgrade morgotts sword im using it but idk how to buff it

You know I wonder if this guy and ymfah are the same person.

What skin are you using? Im brand new and know nothing.

curved bandit swords are way better tbh

Can you do godskin peeler

Why would you use flame grant me strength instead of exalted flesh for the same damage or bloodboil aromatic for even more damage?

Does rallying standard stack with flame grant me strength……. I don’t have golden vow 😅

Cipher pata 😌

Now make it worse: *Powerstance them.*

Pwease do frost Hookclaws :3

Eh, feel like the dex tear is a waste of a slot. Be better to use a stam buff because it'll give you more uses of blood blade.

Is reduvia dagger better than bloodhound fang?

Can you two hand the dagger?

I can’t add the golden vow to the reduvia?? When at the grace and scroll down to ashes of war. I cant add the golden vow to the reduvia. What am I doing wrong? Isn’t the whole point of this video is golden vow with the reduvia. Maybe they patched this??

helpful

00:00

Why not the commander standard and blood boil???

Stats please

Asking an arcane/dex build to put put 15/25 points in faith to get access to a fp consuming 30 second minor dmg spell is peak reddit build

I sold my reduvia cuz I was being dumb can I get it back or do I have to wait till new game

H

If i was a woman on my period this build would be way stronger

Black Knife :)

The reduvia is trash cuz the range is terrible and spamming the ash of war against aggressive bosses is not gonna end well and the reduvia is sucks ass in PvP like what if I'll pull out the pike I dare you to get close

lol. No it’s not.

Any build that depends on buff spells and flask is trash.

No, not even close. Glintstone Kris is far better and the best dagger in the game. You’d be better off putting blood blade on a bloodstained dagger or better yet the Nagakiba
