The Most Infamous Weapon in Elden Ring History - Elden Ring 

ELDEN RING DLC HYPEEEEEEE!!!!!

It's funny how the two other weopons on the pillers (Blasphemous blade, and greatsword) are both substantially better then moonveil

After seeing certain weapons in the DLC Moonveil definitely doesn’t need nerfs it’s fine where it is

Moonveil is an elegant Blade for a civilized time. Rivers of Blood on the other hand? Now that´s a blade for a true barbarian. A Blade worthy of a Legend.

I Stumbled Upon Moonveil In My First Playthrough. Before Nerfs. I Absolutely Adored That Katana.

A moonveil video in 2024 is crazyyyy

That feeling when I got teleported in Caleid without levelups or Torrent as a prophet, found Gravity katana and stumbled upon this katana by sheer fucking luck. Imagine my surprise when, turns out, I accidentally got myself a great build. Catch flame + Meteorite Blade + Moonveil... so good.

I took Moonveil into the DLC, it having been a trusty companion for most of my playthrough. For the most part, it held up alright but it started showing it's age in boss fights. Too slow and not enough damage for this new breed of FAST AF BOOOOI boss. Had to get with the times and get new toys. Initially found success with the two Great Katanas but as soon as I got access to them I've equipped Relanna's Twin Blades and haven't looked back.

Pretty sure it got nerfed into Australia week 1.

Loved the video. Funny at the beginning wen u were talking about it being like a paint brush, that is exactly how i hav always felt about rivers of blood. A beautiful shade of red instead of blue.

Moonveil is fine where it is. It's not weak, yet no where near the any of the broken 1 shot weapons. It doesn't need any buff or nerfs.

Real ones know that the OBJECTIVE Best Weapon is the Lucerne because it proves that in the lore of Elden Ring somewhere out there in the lands between is Lucerne, Switzerland.

Evan I think im the only fan who recognized the sonic theme from a couple of videos ago I love you for knowing this theme! It’s such a relaxing one from the old good Sonic unleashed days

Moonveil brought me through my first playthrough, so I tend to use the weirder weapons now.

ill be honest.. moonvail was my main wep throughout the whole game. now im going strength build.

I wonder how many people have heard that music but have no clue what Deadly Premonition is...

The Deadly Premonition song alone gives this like-worthiness.

I have a fully upgraded Moonveil & have only occasionally ever used it. At the same time, I constantly use my shields with Carian Retaliation 😂

i can't wait for a vid on bayle !!

i got moonveil from a magma wyrm in limgrave tunnels. the ones with Alexander at the end.

My first time in calid was when i was in limgrave and opened a chest got kidnapped and couldn't fast travel Game of the decade

I'm on my 3rd or 4th prisoner spellblade playthrough love moonveil katana!!

My favorite part of the video was the deadly premonition music. Video when 😂

it's just right but i was hoping for a vergil type of sword can we get a charge effect for after? and carry the mobs and do damage while doing so plox?

im in love with Dex Arcane weapon so river of blood is my go to weapon but i did enjoy Moonveil for one of my playthrough

I still run a cold & poison uchigatana duo and I'm having fun while still stacking damage to the bosses

lol you remember when some of us were convinced Elden Ring wasn't real

As far as I knew, I thought the weapon art scaled with int. So of course I’m going to use it until I can compare the great moon sword

I’ve been playing this game since day one I stumbled upon this weapon. Luckily, I was using a mage build for my first build. I went through the hell area like it was nothing after I got through the starting area if I died I just went again and that boss was the first one of that boss I fought in the game eventually I did beat that boss I think I was between level 30-50 at that time and I pretty much used moonveil for the rest of my playthrough and probably one of the deadliest weapons in PVP.

When I played with my friends, one of them just equipped Blasphemous Blade in her off hand and kept it in her back the entire time just for the passive healing, You don't even need to use that thing, it just does stuff by itself

I used Moonveil up until I found the Claws of the Night and changed to a bleed build. With the new armour which increases attack power it just utterly melts anything with bleed. You can melt things 100 yards away with its throwing ash of war. Bosses bleed in 3 hits of that.

backhand blades brought me to the very end of the dlc

I see you with that sonic unleashed soundtrack

(Life is Beautiful comes on) Ah, a man of culture 😌🤌🏻

2 years later and i can still not escape this mf weapons name.

When I found Moonveil, I'd been spoiled as to its existence. But not its location. I entered and ran Gail Tunnel completely unaware of the fact that the reward for beating its boss was the Moonveil. So it was perhaps understandably a bit of a shock when I beat the apparently-random Magma Wyrm and received it. I was pretty excited, though, since it was a perfect fit for the build I was working towards.

ive actually never played as an intelligence build of any kind. i usually go magick or sorcery in RPG's so i figured i'd do something else in Elden Ring. i've done pure faith. strength+dex, blood build. now im trying Hammer/thrusting sword + Great Shield combo.

love the sonic bgm

Would you be someday making a video on Blasphemous Blade?

Is that music in the beginning of the “location” section of the video a weird rendition of super Mario world theme?

Bloodhound fang I find is the best weapon I’ve played with up to yet

I'm currently in DLC with an int built. Mostly I use Moonveil or Great Star with Waves of Darkness. I still love Moonveil.

I remember when the game first came out it was always Katana’s and the cheese meta. Base game katana to Moonviel and when people found rivers of blood…..blasphemy itself. PURE STRENGTH, THE GOD GIVEN WAY, Where y’all at??? 🤙🏼

ah good memory's of my NG+ playthrough where i went a dual katana build (moonveil + Rivers of blood) was so much easier then my Guts build that i used at launch before they buffed greatsword 4 or 5 times >.> now after wacking down everything with my greatsword in SOTE i'm thinkin i'll go dual katana in NG+ either sword of night + star lined sword or star lined sword and moonveil not sure yet ^^ kinda unfortunate reapers didn't get that much love in the DLC would have loved to replicate a sister friede build :P

Am I the only one that never changed up after the Bloodhounds Fang? Best weapon in game imo.

Having 60 or 71 int boosts the moonveil vastly. Even when nerfed it still counts as a boost

i found that the moonveil fell off at endgame in my first int playthrough, but by then, i had the darkmoon greatsword, so i was chillin (dad joke most certainly intended lol). for anyone who doesn't want to screw around with the magma wyrm for a very long fight: pick up meteorite staff and rock sling in street of sages ruins, kill greyoll near fort faroth with bleed for runes, pump int, and you're good to go. just make sure you have a melee sidearm, preferably with high crit, to take advantage of staggers. depending on how much prep you're willing to do, you can get the int and dex tears in liurnia and really give him the business. if that sounds like a pain, or the katana move set isn't tickling your fancy, you can cheese the death bird in southern caelid from the nearby giant's skull with holy pots for the death's poker, which is (imo) a superior weapon to the moonveil. it has a unique running R2 that slaps, the aow has 3 versions, either L2 on it's own or R1 and R2 follow ups, it procs frost very efficiently, and stays relevant all the way through end game and even the dlc. just ignore the tooltip when it comes to scaling the damage of the aow and make int your primary damage stat. keep literally anything that does fire damage on your person to reset the frost during long boss fights (which there won't be many of lol) to reproc it and chunk them down. or, a 5 head tactic if you're not doing a dedicated int build but can squeeze out enough points to use the weapon (which isn't hard with all the int boosting helms in the game and the int tear), you can still use it for frost, which makes the enemy take more damage from you. one of my fav large boss melting maneuvers is to proc frost, then switch to something multi-hit that i'm actually spec'd for (envoy's longhorn aow and ancient dragon lightning both come to mind, but many others would work well) and boom, no more dragon, tree avatar, seed beast, or whatever.

Best katana hands down in any From game was frayed blade from DS3. Insane drip and op.

I stumbled upon the Moonveil dungeon by accident. I was ill equipped to take on that goddamn wyrm in such a closed space... I did it but I wasn't a DEX/INT build -_-'

I've had this sword forever and never used it once lol

I LOVE this sword. Used it much more often than Rivers of Blood.

Lol I was that guy that went straight for the moonveil

I played moonveil for my first run. Wing of Astel makes a great 2nd weapon for moonviel. I think Astels is the most underrated weapon

I can't even remember ever taking the weapon seriously and using it.

Add the twin sword talisman and unsheathe or transient is unstoppable

I didn’t get the moonviel till the DLC I wish I had it from the beginning

Rivers of blood with shard of alexander, ritual sword talisman, at +10 with 80 arcane and 80 dex, then pop flame grant me strength. That is the most damaging build possible, I literally have a video where I take out half of Malenia's HP with 1 ash of war on NG+. And it kills most players in 1 ash of war. Another strongest build is giant crusher + royal knight's resolve with raptor's black feathers and claw talisman/ritual sword talisman, at +25. Pop RKR, then do a jumping R2 and you'll do 2k damage in PVP, and 4k+ in PVE. Also you can do howl of shabriri but it makes you a glass cannon, and I'd suggest just using blackflame protection.

Beat the dlc with moonveil. Super strong, specially when used up close.

I enjoy Moonveil back then, now i kinda just say rip moonveil

So happy to hear sonic unleashed in here!

Even tho many people despises Moonveil and what not? I still love it and use it. Its just better unsheath imho and makes me feel like Vergil. I love my Vergil Motivated Sword. :3

Moonveil has a C Dex and B Int scaling when further upgraded.

Moonveil is definitely good but it’s not overpowered. Guts greatsword with lions claw is far easier to use for a new player and just destroys bosses. If you really build into your poise and damage resistance you can easy mode the whole game.

So that's how got the moon veil lol

The radahn festive does hard

I don't think it needs nerfed any more. I also think they didn't need to nerf the art of war (for PvE) as players should just be allowed to have fun in the way they chose. Fair enough, for competitive PvP, things are likely very different, but this isn't my thing. I just like playing Solo.

Moonveil with Rellana's Cameo and Alexander's shard with my Int/Dex build does massive damage. I've tried my best to use some of the new weapons but moonveil has helped me win multiple boss fights now. I had to unequip it and force myself to use new weapons and new ashes of war. Moonveil=easy. (Just so people know I'm lvl 310 with Int at 90 and Dex at 60 with +10 on moonveil)

i feel like moonveil is just right, ashes of war are easy to dodge but maybe challenging as first and if you get it off good damage

The impossible sword where i got like 2 of them 😂😂😂

Moonveil carried me through the whole game twice

my favorite is still bloodhounds fang

Regular unsheathe actually has much higher total damage than transient moonlight, so I prefer it for PvE. Especially with the nagakiba

Huh weird! my paint brush can only paint red.

Frost anchor goes bonk then fizz = best in game.

when you see the mohglested spear is op

I have actually never used moon i give my one to a friend ( he made a build around having 2 ) and never actually went and got it on my other character lol

I'm more worried worried about dealing with a naked player wield a dagger than dealing with someone using moonveil. But that also could just be the dark souls 3 trauma talking

i see why they nerfed moonveil since there's a lot of items that buff stance ash of wars.

I think the main reason that Moonveil got the reputation it did is because you can literally just run and get it and get it to +9 in like 30 minutes. Then you get a weapon with insane poise damage and bleed on it at almost max level at essentially the beginning of the game. Overall I don't think it's actually THAT powerful compared to some other top tier weapons but considering its position in the game it's hard to beat. I think the normal katana is overall better lol. Smithing stones just suck.

I think the Wing of astel is way better for int mage build. And it's nebula ability absolutely destroys bosses

Bloodfiends arm supremacy

I think Rivers of Blood is still better than Moonveil but Blasphemous Blade still out classes them. Heal Baby Heal!

caelid is like florida so i call it florida

Still no contest between this and the envoy horn

I'm on my first play through (yes after 2 years) and started as a mage, finding this katana made 10x easier to kill boses, not even using mimic or magic other then the katana itself. Conclusions; pretty f#cking op I'd say.

Because the pvp was so saturated with it the weapon doesn't scare me at all. Very telegraphed weapon and once you know it you can counter it. So for ME its fine as is.

Moonveil doesn’t need a nerf cause the people who use it are not much of a threat

yet they still complianed about rivers of blood

I still can't find the moonviel lol.

It's good especially npc that it is weak against magic

Pre nerf moonveil stunned pve mobs in 2 aow R2s and stunned bosses in like 3-4. It was nuts

THEY ADDED A SIXTH MAGMA WYRM LETSGOOOO

You really wanna know why we love it? Because, everytime we use its Weapon Art I yell, "BURY THE LIIIIIGHT DEEP WITHIN!!!!!!!!!"

Alright fellow INT builds, why are you guys using Moonveil? Signed, an Ice Spear Cold Naginata Enjoyer

Too bad the MoonVeil katana got nerved in the last update

I despise the dino dogs and birds.

When they nurf'd it in the 1st patch, it's been mid at best. Also you need to have an INT build which is for the birds...

Star-Lined Sword leaves MoonVeil in the Stardust Smh😂

The guys right fools if you time the special move just right it cooks like the broken long axe in bloodbourne that knocks everything back and that I used to walk through bloodbourne

...god i wish Pilotwings got a sequel.
