Q & A
What is the Blasphemous Blade, and why is it considered a strong option in Elden Ring?
-The Blasphemous Blade is a great sword in Elden Ring that excels in healing and fire damage, primarily scaling with strength and faith. Its unique skill, Taker's Flame, deals high fire damage and heals the player, making it versatile for both offense and survivability.
Why might the Blasphemous Blade not be the best option for high damage builds?
-While the Blasphemous Blade offers balanced performance between high damage and survivability, it doesn't achieve the highest possible damage output compared to other weapons. Its primary strength lies in healing rather than maximizing raw damage.
What is the strategy behind using the 'Go's Great Sword' for a bleed build?
-Go's Great Sword is highly effective for a bleed build due to its ability to inflict bleed status quickly with fast, powerful hits using the spinning gravity thrust Ash of War. This combination makes it easy to cause massive bleed damage to enemies, particularly bosses, despite needing careful execution.
How does the Carrion Sovereignty Ash of War enhance magic damage builds?
-The Carrion Sovereignty Ash of War boosts magic damage significantly, making it one of the strongest magic skills in Elden Ring. It is highly versatile as it can be applied to various weapon types like great swords and katanas, providing massive damage output and critical hit opportunities.
What makes the dual wielding blue weapons build unique?
-This dual wielding build utilizes extremely fast attacks, making it one of the easiest builds to use while delivering massive damage. With only three inputs, players can deplete bosses' health bars quickly, especially when paired with the Twin Blade Talisman, which boosts successive attacks.
What is the key advantage of Pierce damage in PvE, and why is it considered meta after the DLC release?
-Pierce damage has become the meta because it's effective against all types of enemies, especially armored foes. When an enemy is performing an attack, they take 35% more Pierce damage, making it highly effective in many PvE scenarios.
What makes the Marais Executioner’s Sword stand out among other great swords?
-The Marais Executioner’s Sword is one of Elden Ring's legendary weapons, with a unique skill called Eochaid's Dancing Blade. This skill allows the weapon to deal multiple hits in a short time, taking full advantage of attack-buffing effects, making it one of the strongest great swords in the game.
Why is the Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike incantation considered 'broken' in Elden Ring?
-The Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike incantation is considered 'broken' due to its immense damage output, capable of destroying enemies quickly. However, it can be difficult to use against fast bosses in the DLC, which is why players often combine it with Knight’s Lightning Spear for better versatility.
What is the 'Sword Spirit' build, and why is it described as the most broken build in Elden Ring?
-The Sword Spirit build relies on deflecting enemy attacks to boost guard counter damage by up to 80%, allowing players to deal massive damage—up to 27k in a single hit. When combined with buffs like Royal Knight's Resolve, it becomes the most broken build in the game, capable of one-shotting even the toughest bosses.
What should players focus on if they feel their damage is lower than expected in New Game Plus cycles?
-If players notice significantly lower damage than expected, they might be missing key components of their build, such as neglecting the buff routine. It’s important to fully apply buffs and strategies like using Golden Vow, Flame Grant Me Strength, and other essential buffs to maximize build performance.

Transcripts
in this YouTube channel I've completed
Elden ring and its DLC multiple times
with many different weapons constantly
seeking for the ultimate high damage
build for the most broken build of all
times for PVE scenarios today I'm going
to show you what I believe according to
my tests and experience are the eight
best builds of this amazing game so far
as a side note all the gameplay footage
you can see in this video is from NE
game plus to NE game plus 7 each build
will perform a slightly different
depending of the new game plus cycle you
are playing keep in mind that this
damage variation must be a slight even
in new game 7 if you are dealing a very
low amount of damage compared to the
video you must be SK skipping an
important feature of the build like the
buff routine which is something people
tend to constantly do to avoid such
situations be sure to watch the entire
video so you don't miss any significant
detail of the builds to open this list
we have the Blasphemous blade an
extraordinary great sword that is
extremely easy to use and can be
obtained very early this weapon scales
primarily with strength and Faith
however I will always prioritize fade in
most instances since the main reason to
use this weapon is its healing
capability that shines mostly when using
the unique skill of the weapon takers
flame each time we use this ability we
will deal a ridiculous amount of fire
damage that will only scale from our
faith levels and we will recover a
really significant amount of HP this way
every type of player can easily destroy
the toughest bosses of the game quickly
for that reason among the less
experienced player this weapon might be
considered the best but this grayer is
not the best of the game when it comes
to deal high damage i' say that it's the
most balanced weapon between high damage
and surv ability that's why he didn't
get a better spot on this list but it's
actually one of my favorite greator for
this build we will use the Blasphemous
blade on plus 10 any we have available
to cast our Buffs we are going to use
the poison hand that will increase our
damage by 7.5% with each poison proc and
we are going to use the deadly poison
perfume bottle to proc poison on
ourselves we are going to use the Rach
chasa armor set and the musam crown the
best talismans we can use for this build
are The Shard of Alexander the fire
scorpion charm the Kindred of RS
exultation and the Talisman of the dress
in our flaskos physic we will use the
blood sucking cracker and the flame
shrouding cracker this weapon consumes a
decent amount of stamina so be sure to
craft some pickle TT legs to boost your
stamina regeneration speed and if you
want to buff while fighting you can use
the rough fed pot and cure the poison
with a neutralizing balles to obtain the
max performance of this weapon and to
have an optimal build we are going to
use 50 on Bor 26 on mind 40 on endurance
33 on his strength and dexterity and ad
on fade golden vow and H of shabi are
going to be our main Buffs but you can
also use flame gr strength if you don't
want to take any extra damage and we are
going to use our SC bling of the level
20 to get the max performance possible
in DLC scenarios if you don't want to
farm runes or materials for your Elden
ring builds MMO exp is the best web
service where you can easily acquire as
much runes and eents as you wish for the
best price use my code Carlos to get a
5% discount on your purchases thanks MMO
exp for sponsoring today's video in the
next place the Go's great sword come
back to show some real potential
combined with the spinning rapity thrust
Ash ofir for some reason this colossal
sword has always been a really good
option for a bled build cuz just with a
few hits is capable of proing this
statos effect and now with this as of
war that allows you to deal multiple
hits at a very fast rate with this high
damage weapon while dealing Pierce
damage at the same time well you will be
able to delete all your targets easily
besides of being really good as well
against bosses and enemies immune to
bleed the only downside of this weapon
is that you require a decent awareness
of your target move set to not get
completely destroy while performing this
ability in this case we're going to use
the grer on plus 25 with the spinning
gravity throw s ofir on the bleed
affinity and we need any SE we have
available to cast our Buffs and if you
want you can use any weapon with the
Raptor of the Mist ofir to easily Dodge
the land slide explosion attack and the
commander guos charge attack you can
equip this additional weapon with any
other build but I will not mention it on
each one we will do the same for this
weapon with seu you can use any weapon
with seu to start the fight with the
bleed Buffs active but this completely
optional we are going to be rocking the
Rak shasa armor set with the white mask
the most effective talismans for this
build are The Shard of Alexander the
Lord of blood's exultation the m prosis
and the roding winds or Insignia in our
flask of w physic we are going to use
the blood sucking craer and the thorny
craer with this build we are going to
dealing only physical damage that's why
your best body buff is going to be blue
boil automatic and this weapon devours
the stamina so be sure to craft some
pickle turtleneck to boost your stamina
regeneration speed the best stats for
this build are 50 on bigor 20 on mind 40
on endurance 80 on strength 12 on
dexterity 25 on faade and 45 on Arcane
golden vow and Flame gr strength are
going to be our main Buffs if you want
to use the swarm of flies to proc bleed
faster feel free to do it and be sure to
have your scattery bling of the level 20
to deal the max damage possible on the
DLC bosses moving forward to the next
place we have the Kian sovereignty
ashaar probably the strongest magic
damage skill of the entire game this
fantastic ability deals a huge amount of
magic damage capable of destroying every
type of enemy insanely fast ignoring the
fact that some of these enemies are
resistant to Magic damage besides of
being extraordinary to Deals stones of a
damage opening the possibility to play
around critical hits the best part of
this s of war is that it can be used
with multiple weapons which makes it
incredibly versatile and easy to use
however to get the best results when
using this ing skill the best weapon
classes to apply it are the great source
cor grur and great katanas in this case
we're going to use the knights grur on
plus 25 with the caran Sovereign as ofar
on the magic affinity and then we have
available to cast our Buffs and we are
going to use the Asos cstone staff to
cast our spells faster I'm going to be
rocking the Spell blade set but you can
also use the rasas armor set perfectly
fine the the main difference between
these two armor sets is that the spell
Blade Set only works with the skill and
the rasas armor set boost your overall
damage the most effective talismans are
The Shard of Alex the go three icon the
magic scorpion charm and the all Lords
Talisman in our flask of w physic we're
going to use the blood sucking CER and
the magic shrouding crack theer this
weapon consumes a lot of stamina as well
so be sure to craft some pickle
turtleneck to boost your stamina
regeneration speed and to deal the max
damage possible with this build we are
going to use 50 on Bor th on mind 4 on
endurance 25 on strength 12 on dexterity
80 on intelligence and thory trium fade
golden vow Hal of shabi and Tera Magik
are going to be our main Buffs esar
bling on the Lev 20 as well what will be
of a top video without a broken bed
build right well this is a build that I
will call nasty rather than broken as
it's probably the easiest to use of this
list while also being one of your best
options if you don't want to struggle a
single time in your journey through the
Land of Shadows the reason why this
build is so strong is the extremely fast
power St M set of the speed class with
only three inputs it's capable of
deleting the tire HP bar of the most
difficult bosses of the game easily the
result will be the same with the
majority of bosses since it deals spece
damage allowing you to perform
effectively regardless of the type of
enemies you are facing in the same way
it's one of those few builds that will
actually be benefited from the Twin
Blade Talisman a very powerful Talisman
that is rarely seen in op builds because
of its limited applications in this case
we are going to use two blue things 4
comp plus 25 with the seash of War on
the oul affinity and then is we have
available to cast our main Buffs we are
going to be rocking the rasa armor set
once again and the white mask the most
effective talismans for this build are
the Lord of blood's exultation the M
prosis the ren Windsor Insignia and the
to Blade Talisman in our flask of Ros
physic we're going to use the blood
socking cracker and the thorny cracker
and this build Devour the stamina so be
sure to craft some pickle T legs to
boost your stamina regeneration speed to
get the max performance of this weapon
we are going to use 50 on Bor 80 on mind
four on endurance th on strength 10 on
dexterity 25 on fade and 99 on Arcane
golden vow and Flame grandia strength
are going to be our main Buffs and if
you want to proc bed faster you can use
the swarm of flies is a very useful
spell es replacing on the level 20 as
with any other build since the release
of the DLC Pierce damage has become the
new PVE meta with a fair reason all
enemies of the game are vulnerable to
this type of damage some a little bit
less than others but this is the only
type of damage that can't be useless
compared to the standard slash or strike
damage depending of the scenario Pierce
damage will always be effective for two
main reasons it is quite as strong
against heavily armored FES and when you
hit the enemy with a weapon that deals
Pier's damage while they are performing
an attack you will deal 35% more damage
this happens cuz the game system reduces
the resistance to pierce damage of all
enemies including the player Itself by
35% when executing an attack animation
if you are a PVP enjoyer you might be
more familiar with this feature both as
PV players this might be fresh knowledge
you can use to be able to deal a
ridiculous amount of damage quickly now
we will use the Mesmer Soldier spear on
plus 25 with the Royal KN res fashion
war on the quality affinity and then we
have available to cast our Buffs with
this build we are going to rock the
entire R chasa armor set for a total of
8% damage boost the best tman for this
build are the axe Talisman The
two-handed Sword Talisman the spear
Talisman and the msense prosthesis but
you can also use any other Talisman you
find useful in our flask of w physique
we will use the blood sucking cracker
and the Spy crack deer with this build
we're going to be dealing only physical
damage that's why our best body buff is
going to be blood boil automatic but if
you don't like crafting you can also use
flame gr me strength perfectly fine this
weapon devours the stamina so be sure to
craft some pickle tht leg to boost your
stamina regeneration speed in order to
obtain the max performance of this
weapon and to have an optimal build we
are going to to use 50 on Vigor 80 on
mind 40 on endurance 74 on strength 55
on dexterity and 25 on faith golden vow
and Flame gr me strength are going to be
our main Buffs and once again we are
going to be using our escat blessing on
the level 20 leading the top three we
have the marce Executioner sword what I
believe is the strongest gracer of the
entire game a weapon from the base game
that can be obtained quite early without
having to face any major boss this blade
is one of the nine Legendary Weapons of
the game unlike the rest this one
actually feels like a unique and special
weapon it has a very cool design a
unique AR move set and it the scales of
a strength and Arcane anyways what makes
this weapon great is its unique skill
IAI its dancing blade probably the best
unique skill of Welden ring this brutal
ability turns the weapon into a
Bluetooth power drill that drains your
Target's HP bar in just a few seconds
when using this ability you will deal
multiple hits in a very very short time
gap which allows you to get the most out
of the successive attacks Buffs making
of this great sword a complete monster
this time we will use the marce
Executioner sword on plus 10 and any
still we have available to cter Buffs
I'm going to be rocking the dancer armor
set that will increase the damage of the
skill eoai dancing blade by 10% and the
most effective talismans for this build
are The Shard of Alexander the God free
icon the m prosis and the ring Windsor
Insignia in our physic flask the blood
sucking CER and the thorny CER will
grant us the max performance possible
with this build we will not deal only
physical damage but in some fights h of
Shar doesn't last enough time in that
case we will use blueb aromatic and this
weapon consumes a decent amount of
stamina so you can craft some pickle TT
legs to boost your stamina regeneration
speed to get the max performance of this
weapon and to have an optimal build we
are going to use 50 on bigor 20 on mind
35 on endurance 80 on strength 14 on
dexterity 33 on faade and 40 on Arcane
golden vow and Hal of shabii are going
to be our main Buffs but if you don't
want to take any extra damage feel free
to use flame grania strength as well and
once again we are going to use a SC
bling on the level 20 to get the max
damage possible in the DLC I truly love
lining it is definitely my favorite
Elemental damage type sadly despite of
being so cool and fun to play most
lining builds are not even close to be
part of the meta with the exception of
this one ancient dragon Ling strike is
the most broken incantation of the game
and it's not open to discussion it's so
destructive it's not even fair and
that's exactly why I love it however
it's quite difficult to use against fast
enemies and if I had to describe the DLC
in one word that will be speed the
bosses in Shadow of the air tree are
insanely fast that if you try to perform
the Char version of this incantation you
will get your cheeks smashing a finger
snap for that reason we will also use
the knight's Lightning Spear and even
incantation that allows you to deal a
very good amount of estance damage the
strategy is going to be quite simple we
will use the Priestess heart to get into
Dragon form we will use Knight's Landing
spear to force an opening that will
allow us to finish our Target with a
nasty fully charged ancient dragon
sliding strike this one is quite unique
we are going to use two gravel Stone
seal on plus 25 and the flower Stone
Gable on plus 10 and this weapon is
completely optional feel free to use it
if you want but I feel like the de buff
of the flower dragon bolt is not working
properly right now but if you want to
make make your own test feel free to do
it in this case we are not going to use
any armor set cuz we will be rocking the
Priestess heart which is a dragon
transformation that will increase the
damage of the Dragon Cult incantations
by 20% the best talismans for this build
are the lightning scorpion charm the go
three icon the faithful canvas Talisman
and the flux canas Talisman in our flask
of wos physic we're going to use the
blood sucking craer and the lining
shrouding craer a great alternative for
the blood sucking craer is the star
craer this one is going to be insanely
helpful in the DLC and the incantations
we will use will consume a lot of estam
so you can craft some pickle turtleneck
to increase your stamina recovery speed
the best stats for this build are 50 on
Bor 35 on mind 40 on endurance 15 on his
strength 18 on dexterity 99 on faith and
15 on Arcane golden vow and H of shabii
are going to be our main Buffs Knights
Lightning Spear and ancient dragon
lightning strike are going to be our
main source of damage es placing on the
level 20 as well to deal the max damage
possible in the DLC and as the winner of
this top we have the sword Spirit
combined with the deflecting heart tier
this is what happens when you
incorporate the flections in Elden ring
as we as it sounds this is currently the
most broken build in all of Elden ring
with this build on a very basic bu
routine you can get up to 27k damage in
a single hit which I find quite stupid
however in order to get the max
performance possible with each hit we
have to successfully deflect at least
four enemy attacks to boost our next
guard counter by 80% in the same way we
have to combine this damage buff with
royal Knights result this is a little
bit complicated to perform especially if
you are not very used to the deflection
mechanic having played Seco will help
tremendously to understand how this
build works and it will allow you to
develop the max damage possible in a
single hit if you decide to stack more
boss with this build you can easily
oneshot the toughest bosses of the game
and the DLC this fantastic build will go
like this sword lands on plus 25 with
the Royal nights res fashion war on the
heavy affinity and we have available to
cast in Buffs and in this case we will
actually need a weapon with seu cuz we
are going to start the fight with the
bleed Buffs active once again we are
going to use the rasas armor set and the
white mask the best talismans we can use
for this build are the Lord of blood's
exultation the two-handed sword Talisman
The Curve sword Talisman and the spear
Talisman in our flask of Wonders physic
we're going to use the blood sucking TR
tier and the deflecting heart tier with
this build we are going to be dealing
only physical damage that's why your
best body buff is going to be blood boy
aromatic but if you don't like racting
feel free to use flame ground your
strength and this build doesn't consume
a lot of stamina but if you miss the
deflection and you block you will
actually need some fast stamina recover
speed in that case you can craft some
pickle turtlenecks to get the moste out
of this build we are going to use 60 on
bigor 20 mind four on endurance 99 on
strength 8 on dexterity and 25 on faith
golden vow and Flame gr me strength are
going to be our main Buffs and remember
to use your scattery bling on the level
20 to deal the max damage possible to
the hardest DLC bosses let me know in
the comment section what do you think of
these builds have a great day guys my
name is Carlos and I'll see you in the
next one
