  • Elden Ring: How To Stagger Every Boss With Zweihander Cragblade Build?

    Posted: Sep 16, 2023

    Welcome back to my Elden Ring build guide. In this guide, I’ll show you my Zweihander build and easily stun enemies by infusing my weapon with Ash of War: Cragblade.

    Zweihander is a Colossal Sword that mainly relies on Strength and Dexterity scaling. The weapon itself requires 19 Strength and 11 Dexterity to function properly. It weighs 15.5, making it the lightest weapon in Colossal Sword class. We can infuse it with Ash of War: Cragblade and upgraded with Smithing Stones.

    What I like about this weapon is its ability to hit enemies from a distance while also dealing a ton of poise damage. Especially when combined with Ash of War: Cragblade, it can cause more poise damage and easily stun enemies.

    If you’re looking for a strength build with great poise damage, then this is a guide you can’t miss. This guide will cover everything you need to know about this Zweihander Cragblade Stagger build. Without further ado, let’s get started.

    Zweihander

    First, you can purchase Zweihander for 3,500 Elden Ring Runes from Isolated Merchants located on the far west side of this Weeping Peninsula. But don’t worry, you can also use the code “CSCCA” to get 5% off.

    Ash Of War: Cragblade

    I like to infuse this weapon with Ash of War: Cragblade and choose Heavy as the primary Weapon Affinity. After using this skill, you will cover your weapon with rocks, increasing physical damage by 15% and stance damage by 10% for 60 seconds. So it can increase your weapon poise damage and stun enemies easily. You can get this Ash of War by killing Scarab near Caelid Sword Monuments.

    Buff & Protection

    For buff and protection, Golden Vow and Black Flame’s Protection are your best bet. Golden Vow increases your damage output by 15% and increases all damage negated by 10% for 80 seconds. And Black Flame’s Protection will increase your physical damage negation by 35%.

    Seal

    For Seal, the most basic Finger Seal is enough. Because different levels of seal have almost the same impact on your damage effects. Finger Seal is the starting equipment for Confessor and Prophet classes. Of course, you also have the option of purchasing it from Roundtable Hold.

    Talismans

    Also, you can increase your attack power by using some Talismans. Paired with Bull-Goat’s Talisman, it can increase your pose damage by 33%. Next, use Dagger Talisman, which increases your critical damage by 17%.

    Combining with Dragoncrest Greatshield can reduce physical damage taken by 20%. Last but not least, with Green Turtle Talisman, you can increase your stamina regeneration rate by 8 per second.

    Crystal Tears

    You can also use a combination of two Crystal Tears to boost your status temporarily. The first is Opaline Hardtear, which temporarily increases the offset of all damage you take by 15% for 3 minutes. The other is Greenburst Crystal Tear, which increases your physical recovery speed by 15 points per second for 3 minutes.

    Armor

    For armor, Crucible Axe Set is your best choice. It provides excellent protection for your character and boosts your pose damage.

    Stats

    At this point, the gear basically meets the basic requirements for a Zweihander Cragblade Stagger build and Black Flame’s Protection. For the stat, I put most of my attributes on Strength to increase my attack power. All specific stats are:

    • Vigor 40
    • Mind 20
    • Endurance 36
    • Strength 72
    • Dexterity 11
    • Intelligence 10
    • Faith 20
    • Arcane 10

    Showcase

    The way this build works is that first you consume Crystal Tears, casting Golden Vow and Black Flame’s Protection to enhance your character. Afterwards, you can imbue your weapon with Ash of War: Cragblade and hit enemies to stagger them. Finally defeated each one.

  • Elden Ring: How To Create A Bleed Build That Can Easily Crush Malenia? - Morgott’s Cursed Sword

    Posted: Sep 02, 2023

    Welcome back to my Elden Ring guide. Here I’ll show you my Morgott’s Cursed Sword build, with a focus on the use of its Cursed-Blood Slice skill.

    Morgott’s Cursed Sword is a Curved Greatsword that mainly relies on Strength, Dexterity and Arcane scaling. The weapon itself requires 14 Strength, 35 Dexterity, and 17 Arcane to use properly. It has a weight of 7 and produces blood buildup by default.

    The weapon skill for this weapon is called Cursed-Blood Slice. It allows the user to perform a charge, perform a wide Slicing attack, and leave a trail, which then causes a burst of flame explosion. After attacking, it can deal more damage and increase blood loss.

    This ability deals with fire damage and physical damage. What I like about this skill is that the burst of flame explosion can also break the enemy’s poise. This allows for easy follow-up attacks, especially against similarly sized enemies, such as Malenia.

    If you’re looking for a strong blood build, or a weapons build that can go head to head with Malenia. Then you must not miss this Morgott’s Cursed Sword build guide. This guide will cover everything you need to know about Morgott’s Cursed Sword.

    Morgott’s Cursed Sword

    First you can get this Morgott’s Cursed Sword by trading Remembrance of The Omen King from Enia in Roundtable Hold.

    Buffs & Protection

    For buffs and protection, I recommend Golden Vow and Black Flame’s Protection. Golden Vow increases damage to +15% and negates all your damage to +10% for 80 seconds. The other is Black Flame’s Protection, which protects you from 35% of physical damage.

    Also Read: How To Build A PVP Duelist Strength Build In Elden Ring 1.10? - Poise Damage Explained

    Seal

    For Seal, the most basic Finger Seal is completely sufficient. You can find and get it from Twin Maiden Husks. It costs 800 Elden Ring Runes. It’s worth noting that you can also get 5% off with the code “CSCCA”.

    Talismans

    There are some Talismans that can be used to increase our attack power. With Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman, you reduce the physical damage you take by 20%. Next, use Shard of Alexander to increase the attack power of Cursed-Blood Slice skill by 15%.

    Another is Fire Scorpion Charm, which increases your fire damage by 12% as well as physical damage by 10%. This is useful for increasing attack power when using Cursed-Blood Slice skill. Finally, there’s Lord of Blood’s Exultation, which helps you increase your attack power by 20% for 20 seconds.

    Crystal Tears

    You can also use a combination of two Crystal Tears to boost the status of your skill effects temporarily. Among them, Opaline Hardtear can temporarily increase all physical damage reduction by 15% for 3 minutes. The other is Flame-Shrouding Cracked Tear, which temporarily boosts your fire damage to +20% for 3 minutes.

    Gear

    Plus, Armor Sets give your characters maximum protection. For a helmet, White Mask is a brilliant choice. When bleeding occurs nearby, it increases your attack by 10% for 20 seconds.

    Stats

    The above equipment can meet the basic requirements of Morgott’s Cursed Sword build and Black Flame’s Protection. Also, I put most of the stats in Arcane to increase my blood loss.

    For this build, I set Vigor at 40, Mind at 25, Endurance at 30, Strength at 14, and Dexterity at 35. Among them, Intelligence in Black Flame’s Protection requirement has not changed, and we set Arcane to 45 and above to increase the blood buildup.

    Showcase

    The way this build works is that first you can consume Crystal Tears to boost skill effect stats. Then cast Golden Vow and Black Flame’s Protection to enhance your character. Then you can cast Cursed-Blood Slice skill to attack the enemy.

    This concludes my Morgott’s Cursed Sword build guide. As long as you can follow the guide and play correctly, you can easily kill Malenia. Anyway, good luck.

  • Elden Ring: Sorcery and Sword Build for Patch 1.10! - The Nightblade

    Posted: Aug 24, 2023

    Here, I want to give you another Elden Ring build for Patch 1.10, which is called the Nightblade.

    Stat Spread - Starting Class & Point Allocation 

    Let’s start with the class and stats.

    You can start this build with the Astrologer class. You can set your Vigor at 55, Mind at 20 (and can be boosted by your Navy Hood from 20 to 21), Endurance at 12, Strength at 8, Dexterity at 50, Intelligence at 68, Faith at 7, and Arcane at 9.

    The Gear - Weapons, Armor, Talismans, Ashes of War, Flask of Wondrous Physick 

    Let’s have a look at my gear first. And next, I will go over where you can find each piece of gear, Ashes of War, and Sacred Tear.

    I have a Rapier with a Cold affinity - Cold Rapier, as our melee weapon. And what I love about this is not only the critical rating of 130 but also the fact that adding Frostbite lowers enemies’ defenses by 20%. 

    The Ash of War Glintblade Phalanx is going to be used to break the enemy’s stance, leaving them open to boost Critical Hits. 

    You can cast the Night Sorceries with the Staff of Loss, the best staff for them. And what’s great is that they are invisible, so bosses don’t dodge them. We can really keep our distance in battle. 

    Fully charged Night Comets do respectable damage. Night Shard is great for mobility as you can cast it whilst running and jumping. And although Ambush Shard is not being boosted by the Staff of Loss, it is also great for enemies that are out of range and for keeping up the chip damage, so their stance doesn’t reset. I mean, sometimes you kill Melania with it.

    Of course, you can start most fights by firing off Ranni’s Dark Moon to get Frostbite proct to lower enemies defenses by 20% before you unleash your Night Sorceries and Critical Hits.

    These are the Talismans that support and boost the build:

    The Graven-Mass Talisman, which raises your sorcery damage by 8%. 

    The Godfrey Icon, which boosts the damage of your fully charged Night Comets by 15%.

    The Magic Scorpion Charm, which boosts your magic damage by 12% and increases any physical damage you take by 10%. It is a worthy trade-off.

    The Dagger Talisman, which increases our Critical Hits by 17%.

    Now, if you don’t want to lock yourself into charged Night Comets and the Godfrey Icon, you can switch in the Graven-School Talisman and along with the Graven-Mass Talisman. You’ll have a +12% overall damage boost to your Ssorceries.

    In the Flask of Wondrous Physick, you can pick the Magic-Shrouding Cracked Tear, boosting all your magic damage and you can pick the Greenburst Crystal Tear, speeding up your stamina recovery as the bar is a little low.

    Now your armor loadout is held and bling to the max. You can pick a Navy Hood, boosting your Mind stat by one point. This actually allows you to cast 6 Night Comets with a full FP bar before chugging.

    The rest of the gear is the Black Knife Armor set. Not only does this look awesome, but it makes no noise, which means we can sneak about and ambush enemies.

    Also Read: A Walkthrough Guide On Exploring Mistwood Ruins & Fort Haight Areas In Elden Ring

    Combat 

    Let’s have a look at some combat.

    Start by chugging your Flask of Wondrous Physick and then pop off Ranni’s Dark Moon. Then, I like to throw up Glintblade Phalanx and switch to Night Comet to snipe away.

    Depending on what you are fighting, you may just want to stay away and snipe enemies with Night Sorceries. But if you do want to get in close, keep Glintblade Phalanx up and hitting enemies to get their stance broken and your awesome Critical Hits in.

    There’s something for everyone with this build. I just love switching it up depending on the boss.

    Item/Gear Locations

    Let’s have a look at the gear and item locations before I sign off.

    The Rapier can be purchased from the Twin Maiden Husks at the Roundtable Hold for 1,000 Elden Ring Runes. Please note: if you use the code “CSCCA” here, you can also get 5% off.

    The Staff of Loss can be found in Sellia, Town of Sorcery, on a corpse hanging off the balcony.

    The Navy Hood and the rest of the noble sets can be found in the East Windmill Pasture.

    The Black Knife Armor set is found on a corpse under an archway behind Ordina Liturgical Town in Consecrated Snowfield.

    The Graven-Mass Talisman is found on the top of Albinauric Rise in the east of the Consecrated Snowfield.

    The Godfrey Icon drops from Godefroy the Grafted found in the Golden Lineage Evergaol.

    The Magic Scorpion Charm is obtained by giving Preceptor Seluvis the Amber Starlight after Seluvis tells you about his scheme

    If you want to throw on the Graven-School Talisman, it can be found in Raya Lucaria.Take a detour through a fake wall. 

    The Magic-Shrouding Cracked Tear is dropped by the Erdtree Avatar in northeastern Liurnia of the Lakes .

    The Greenburst Crystal Tear is dropped by the Erdtree Avatar found in the Minor Erdtree Avatar in Caelid, east of the Smoldering Church.

    The Glintblade Phalanx Ash of War can be found after defeating Godrick the Grafted in Stormveil Castle

    Rogier’s Rapier can be found in the Roundtable Hold by the balcony after speaking to him and receiving his Rapier.

    Ranni’s Dark Moon could be found in the Chelona’s Rise after unlocking the tower.

    Night Shard could be purchased from Gowry for 4,000 runes after completing his questline

    Night Comet is found in a chest in Sellia, Town of Sorcery, after lighting the torch atop the tower.

    Ambush Shard can be found on the Weeping Peninsula, found on a corpse in the underground jail of the Witchbane Ruins.

  • Elden Ring: How To Complete Coastal Cave & Enter Church Of Dragon Communion? - A Walkthrough Guide

    Posted: Aug 11, 2023

    Welcome back to the new Elden Ring walkthrough! Today, we’ll guide you through a Coastal Cave full of simple enemies and let you into a brand new area of the game, Church of Dragon Communion.

    Travel To Coastal Cave

    As we ride east from the ruins in front of the gate, you may hear calls from the side of the road. The sound came from a strange tree beside the road. After you cut down the tree, you’ll find an NPC, Demi-Human Boc. After talking with it, you will know the specific direction of Coastal Cave, enter from the beach southwest of this Church of Elleh.

    A word of caution: be sure to spend 200 Elden Ring Runes to get Torch from Merchant Kale before leaving the church. Because the environment inside Coastal Cave is mostly dark. Notably, you can also get 5% off with the code “CSCCA”.

    Take Torrent all the way downhill southwest, and you’ll find a Giant Troll in your path. Of course, you can avoid this by turning west and heading for the cliff.

    Just to the east, you can find a campfire under a large area of ruins. Move along the cliff until you reach above these ruins and drop down. Under the ruins you’ll meet another Merchant. Although he’s not as friendly as Kale, you can restock some must-have consumables here. Just Neutralizing Boluses and Armorer’s Cookbook [2] he sells, which you can also get by making your own.

    After leaving Merchant, we rode west along the beach until we found the entrance to Coastal Cave. Some Demi-Humans are gathered on a rock next to the cave. We can enter the tunnel after picking up Torch.

    Collect Items

    In the first area, you’ll find a Site of Grace, and Demi-Human Boc is also here. You just don’t attack him. We then continued deeper into the cave until we encountered a Demi-Human enemy. You can kill him easily. Then we continue into the tunnel on the right. After killing all Demi-Humans, look for a corpse holding a Land Octopus Ovary.

    Get ready for a boss fight before heading into the next cave. Check Golden Order Seal on the ground, and summon another Tarnished: Old Knight Istvan. He’ll assist you in battle, but his Seal won’t work if he’s dead.

    Once inside the cave, you can summon Lone Wolf Ashes. Note that the first Demi-Human Chief is just around the corner, sitting with a group of Demi-Humans. Your call will distract Chief as much as possible so you can attack from behind.

    Target a Demi-Human Chief and try to keep attacking until he dies. Also, step back occasionally to recover and avoid counterattacks. After killing two Chiefs, you’ll get Sewing Needle and Tailoring Tools.

    You can also collect some Silver Firefly in the cave. Go into the back tunnel of the cave, and you’ll find a glowing point, which will allow you to return to the entrance, but don’t use it. Instead, continue into the next tunnel. There are some extra Demi-Humans enemies in this tunnel to fight.

    Church Of Dragon Communion

    Continue through the tunnel and eventually you’ll emerge on the small island off the south coast of Limgrave. Then we took Torrent up the mountain to find this Site of Grace and Church of Dragon Communion. On this ritual altar, you can earn Dragon Communion Incantations by consuming Dragon Hearts.

    Near the cliff behind the church, you’ll find a corpse with a Great Dragonfly Head inside. We can use it as a crafting item to cure and prevent poisoning. There are also these Guillemots nearby, which may drop Four-Toed Fowl Foot, another valuable crafting item.

    You can ride a torrent and hop on this massive ruin to the top, where you’ll find important messages someone left behind. You can see this Church of Dragon Communion on the cliff to the east. Behind this ruin, a ramp leads to a lower ledge. Kill Scarab, you find here to get Somber Smithing Stones [1]. Further down the sloping ledge, you’ll find a Turtle and a corpse holding Smithing Stone [2].

    Complete Quest

    Finally, we use the map to head back to Coastal Cave Site of Grace and find Demi-Human Boc. Talk to him again and give him the needle to boost his spirits and continue his questline.

    This is the end of our Coastal Cave exploration trip. Hopefully, this walkthrough guide will help you gain a better understanding of these areas and nearby enemies before you actually start your mission. Hope it helps you.

  • Elden Ring: Best Critical Hits Build For Patch 1.10! - The Stance Breaker

    Posted: Aug 09, 2023

    If patch 1.10 for Elden Ring revolves around Critical Hits for PVE, then we need a Critical Hits build, right? Yes. We’re going to use a combination of the Executioner’s Greataxe, the Brass Shield and some Critical Hit Talismans for some devastating guard counters. You can also use Golden Parry as yet another way to break an enemy’s stance and deliver devastating Critical Hits. 

    This really is an easy mode. And thanks to the Brass Shield, you will actually find it easier just blocking attacks of any magnitude. We have some great Ashes of War to support the build and we have the Bloodboil Aromatic. 

    All in all, this build is called The Stance Breaker

    Stat Spread - Starting Class & Point Allocation

    Let’s first start with the class and stats so we can wreck anything and everything. 

    I started with the Hero class. We have Vigor at 57, Mind at 12, Endurance at 47, Strength at 78 (it can be boosted to 80 thanks to our Omensmirk Mask), Dexterity at 9, Intelligence at 7, Faith at 8 and Arcane at 11. 

    The Gear - Weapons, Armor, Talismans, Ashes of War, Flask of Wondrous Physick 

    The main weapon of this build is the Executioner’s Greataxe, which has a critical rating of 115. It’s great for our Critical Hits.On this, we have the Ash of War Cragblade. This boosts our physical damage by 15% and our stance damage by 10%. 

    We have a dagger in the main hand as well, which we can switch to to cast the Golden Vow Ash of War for extra damage and defense.

    In our offhand, we have the Brass Shield and we can choose between two Ashes of War on this. The first is Barricade Shield. This gives us tier 4 Hardness to withstand pretty much any attack while blocking. The second is Golden Parry. If you’re feeling a little more confident, you can Parry your way to delivering Critical Hits.

    As for the armor then, we have the Omensmirk Mask, which will boost our Strength by two points. We have the Banished Knight Armor, the Fire Prelate Greaves and Lionel’s Gauntlets. This gear gives us an insane 101 Poise and we still have a medium load.

    As for our Talismans, we have the Curved Sword Talisman boosting our guard counters, the Dagger Talisman boosting our Critical Hit Damage by 17%, the Great Shield Talisman reducing Stamina damage whilst blocking, and the Bull-Goat’s Talisman, which raises our Poise by 33%.

    Now, there is a fifth Talisman, the Axe Talisman, which we can swap in when fighting enemies we are not guard countering more on this when we look at combat.

    In the Flask of Wondrous Physick, we have the Greenspill Crystal Tear, which boosts our maximum Stamina and the Stonebarb Cracked Tear to help break enemy Stance quicker.

    Before we look at combat, I need to mention the Bloodboil Aromatic. This little beauty is increasing our physical damage by +30%, our Max stamina by +20%, but we do take 25% more damage. But let’s be honest, we have our Shield up, so who cares about that?

    Combat 

    Next up, let’s look at the combats start by switching to the dagger and buffing with Golden Vow, switch the Executioner’s Greataxe and buff it with Cragblade, then pop the Bloodboil Aromatic, then I would advise to pop the Flask of Wondrous Physick as late as you can. 

    Hold up the shield and wait for enemies to attack, then hit with your heavy attack. R2 on PlayStation to deliver a guard counter, you will find yourself more often than not breaking an enemy’s Stance in as little as two guard counters. Then, you deliver your Health melting Critical Hits.

    Now, a really cool tip to keep the Stance damage from resetting on the more mobile enemies is to throw daggers at them to keep the Stance damage ticking over. When it comes to the odd enemies that don’t really give us a chance to use guard counters, you can of course break them with Golden Parry or even easier, just hit them with charged heavy R2 attacks with the Executioner’s Greataxe two-handed.

    If doing this just swap out the Curved Sword Talisman and the Great Shield Talisman for the Axe Talisman and a damage negation Talisman, depending on what damage you are taking.

    What’s great about two-handing the Executioner’s Greataxe is that you can still guard counter if you want to. With this, it will not be as effective as using a shield, but you still have the option.

    Item/Gear Locations 

    The Executioner’s Greataxe can be dropped by numerous skeleton enemies you see wielding it. You can grab a dagger from the Twin Maiden Husks at the round table hold for 400 Elden Ring Runes. Please note: if you use the code “CSCCA”, you can also get 5% off.

    The Brass Shield can be dropped by numerous enemies, mainly the Godric soldiers and as early as the start of the game.

    The Fire Prelate Greaves can be dropped by Fire Prelate enemies.

    The Lionel’s Gauntlets can be found on a bed in the building with the Lower Capital Church Site of Grace in Leyndell, Royal Capital.

    The Curved Sword Talisman could be found by Stormveil Cliffside Site of Grace and Stormveil Castle. Go up the stairs on the side of the castle and up to the third floor of the Wine Cellar. Enter the door on the eastern wall to find a dark room with a Banished Knight as well as a chest with this Talisman.

    The Dagger Talisman is in the hanging cage room behind the Imp Statue fog gate in Volcano Manor.

    The Great Shield Talisman is found in a carriage chest east of the Erdtree Gazing Hill Site of Grace. Watch out for the three fire arrow balliste guarding the carriage.

    The Bull-Goat’s Talisman can be found in the back of Dragonbarrow Cave. From the entrance, take a left onto the Giant Bear’s patrol route. Search that side of the cave until you find the Talisman at the very end on a corpse.

    The Axe Talisman is found in a cellar underneath the Mistwood Ruins in eastern Limgrave.

    The Greenspill Crystal Tear is found in Mistwood founded on the altar next to the minor Erdtree Mistwood, along with the Spiked Cracked Tear. 

    The Stonebarb Cracked Tear is obtained by defeating the Putrid Avatar in Caelid.

    As for our Bloodboil Aromatic mats, you will need the Perfumer’s Cookbook (2), Altless Bloom x2, Budding Cave Moss x1, Land Octopus Ovary x1 and Arterial Leaf x1.

    The Cragblade Ash of War is found west of the Impassable Greatbridge in Caelid on a Scarab near the Sword Monuments.

  • Elden Ring: A Short Walkthrough Guide For Dragon Burnt Ruins

    Posted: Aug 09, 2023

    Here I’m going to bring you a short walkthrough guide for Elden Ring Dragon-Burnt Ruins and the surrounding area. With this guide, you can easily explore and conquer these areas in Elden Ring.

    Location Of Dragon-Burnt Ruins

    Dragon-Burnt Ruins are located due east of Sites of Grace near White Mask Varre. Check the cliffs east of Sites of Grace and you’ll find a series of descending ledges. You’ll then come across some Giant Bats and some Crucified Tarnished monsters around a large hole in the ground.

    On the right, you’ll find a corpse with a Smithing Stone in its hand. Along the southern line of the cliff to the east, hold your camera up and you’ll be able to spot Giant Bats hanging from ancient pillars. You’ll need to use Bone Darts to knock them down and kill them so they don’t ambush you later.

    Continue east and you’ll find five Giant Bats, which are active even during the day. You’re going to kill them all anyway, and find the corpse with a Golden Rune. Just north of here, you’ll see Dragon-Burnt Ruins.

    Find The Secret Cave

    But first we have to find a secret cave with items and meet another NPC. At the beginning of the game, you may have noticed an item on the ledge behind Stranded Graveyard, Flask of Crimson Tears.

    These are the consumable items we will need on this adventure. So you can also choose to use Elden Ring Runes to get enough resources before you start. Note that you can also get 5% off with the code “CSCCA”.

    Continue southeast along the ledge until you find Seaside Ruins Site of Grace. Activate this feature and ride the torrent past these two Eagles. Tilt the camera down and you can see some ledges below.

    To fall here without taking damage, you need to fall through this corner, then jump and land on this little ledge as you fall. Move to this side of the platform and descend to the other ledge below. Then jump off the side, making sure to land on this boulder below.

    Then, avoiding the powerful enemies on the beach, we drove west along the cliff face until we found this secret cave. There’s also a short tunnel leading directly to the ledge of Stranded Graveyard, where you’ll find Haligdrake Talisman. It enhances Holy Damage offset and is very useful in upcoming boss fights.

    Quickly return to Seaside Ruins Site of Grace and head northeast. Below these ruins, you’ll come across Bloody Finger Hunter Yura.

    Also Read: Changes To PVP Damage Mechanics In Elden Ring Patch 1.10 - Nerfs & Buffs

    Equipment

    Next we headed north out of the ruins and rode the torrent northwest to Dragon-Burnt Ruins. Walls surround the closest area, and you have to double-jump on the torrent to get past them. Go down the stairs and you’ll find a secret room with a chest containing Twinblade. Twinblade is a powerful Crowd Control weapon that enhances Strength and Dexterity.

    Because of the high number of Dogs in the area, the rest of Dragon-Burnt Ruins are best faced with torrents as well. In the eastern area, you’ll come across a few Dogs and find a dead body with Crab Eggs. And on the west side, you’ll encounter more Dogs and Wandering Nobles.

    Go all the way into the center and kill all these Wandering Nobles. But you need to be careful carrying Torches’ Wandering Nobles.

    In the center of the area there is a secret room that leads to a room full of Giant Rats. I suggest you stay in the torrent to keep moving and kill them all.

    Trapped Teleporter Chest

    Then open the door of the next room and find a chest. Note that this is a trapped teleporter chest. If you open it, you’ll have a split second to jump or escape before you’ll be teleported deep into Sellia Crystal Tunnel.

    The enemies here are too tough for you to explore this area, so I suggest you head down the hill and rest at Sites of Grace near the entrance. You won’t be able to fast travel using the map until you rest at Sites of Grace and exit the cave.

    Ride north from Dragon-Burnt Ruins and you’ll see a group of Wandering Nobles in the distance. As you approach them, you’ll witness the amazing landing of Flying Dragon Agheel. This is an optional boss, and unless you’re close to level 50, you’ll have a hard time fighting it.

    That concludes my walkthrough guide in and around Dragon-Burnt Ruins. I hope it helps you explore and conquer with ease in the early days of Elden Ring.

  • Elden Ring: How To Create A Best Insane Bleed Master Build? - Reduvia Dagger

    Posted: Aug 03, 2023

    Here I will show you my Reduvia Dagger Build. Reduvia is a Dagger that mainly relies on data scaling such as Strength, Dexterity, and Arcane.

    The weapon skill for this weapon is called Reduvia Blood Blade. With this ability, you can launch Bloodstains on your Dagger into the air, causing enemies to bleed more. And the cumulative amount per attack is higher than the weapon’s melee attack amount. While this throw has a relatively short range, it’s good to use outside the melee range of most enemies.

    If you are interested in this Reduvia Dagger Build, or you are used to the melee in Elden Ring raid missions, then you must not miss this guide. This guide will cover everything you need to know about this Reduvia Dagger Build. Next, let’s get started.

    How To Find Reduvia Dagger?

    First, you can kill Bloody Finger Nerijus in Murkwater Catacombs to get Reduvia Dagger on him. We should note that Bandit class can use the weapon from the beginning after acquiring it. Because the class already fulfills all the stat requirements for that weapon.

    Incantation

    For Incantation, I like to use Swarm of Flies and Black Flame’s Protection. Once you’ve used Swarm of Flies, you can unleash Swarm of Bloodflies to bleed your enemies. The other is Black Flame’s Protection, which will help you resist 35% of the physical damage you take.

    Seal

    For Seal, I recommend you to use the most basic Finger Seal. Because different levels of seal have almost the same damage gain for you. You can get it at Twin Maiden Husks for 800 Elden Ring Runes. Note that you can also use the code "CSCCA" to get 5% off.

    Talisman

    We can also use some talismans to increase our attack power. The first is Lord of Blood’s Exultation, which grants you 20% increased attack damage for 20 seconds when nearby blood loss occurs.

    Then you can also use Shard of Alexander to increase your skill attack power by 15% for a short time. The other is Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman, which reduces the physical damage you take by 20%. Last but not least, with Green Turtle Talisman, you can increase your stamina recovery rate by 8 points per second.

    Plus, you can boost your status effects and skill attacks by combining Crystal Tears. Using Opaline Hardtear temporarily increases all physical damage reduction you take by 15% for 3 minutes. Another piece is Greenburst Crystal Tear, which increases your Stamina regeneration rate by 15 points per second for 3 minutes.

    For armor, you can use War Surgeon Set, specifically White Mask. Because when bleeding occurs nearby, it increases your attack by 10% for 20 seconds.

    How Does It Work?

    This level 150 build fulfills all the basic requirements for Reduvia Dagger weapon and Black Flame’s Protection. The various stats of this build are:

    • Vigor 40
    • Mind 35
    • Endurance 20
    • Strength 10
    • Dexterity 13

    Also, Black Flame’s Protection requires Faith to be tuned to 30 for this build and Arcane set to 71 or more to increase your Blood Loss Injection.

    How this build works is that first you can combine Crystal Tears and cast Black Flame’s Protection to buff your character stats. After that, you can start casting Swarm of Flies. Finally, you can infuse your target with Blood Loss using Reduvia Blood Blade weapon skill.

    The above is the complete process of my Reduvia Dagger. The great thing about this build is that we can achieve this on the first play through, unlike the usual builds that require two Reduvias. So hurry up and try it out.

  • Elden Ring: How To Create A Level 150 Stagger Lion’s Claw Zweihander Build?

    Posted: Aug 01, 2023

    Today I’m going to share with you an Elden Ring build guide, in which I’ll show you my level 150 Zweihander build. In this build, I’ll be using Zweihander as my primary weapon, with Ash of War Lion’s Claw.

    If you’re interested in this Zweihander build, or are looking for a Strength build to intimidate your enemies, then this build is for you. This guide will cover everything you need to know about a Zweihander build. Let’s start.

    How To Find Zweihander?

    For weapons, I like to use Zweihander, a Colossal Sword that scales primarily with Strength and Dexterity. What I love about this weapon is the long range and the infusion of Ash of War, which deals massive damage to enemies.

    You can also get this weapon for 3,500 Elden Ring Runes at Isolated Merchants on the westernmost side of this Weeping Peninsula. Note that you can also use the code “CSCCA” to get 5% off.

    Ash Of War: Lion’s Claw

    For Ash of War on this weapon, I prefer to use Lion’s Claw, because it can cause more poise damage. This way, you can easily break the enemy’s stance. Also, you’ll want to make sure to choose Heavy as your primary Weapon Affinity to increase your Strength scaling. After you defeat that Lion Guardian in Fort Gael, this Ash of War will drop from it.

    Incantation

    For Incantation, I like to use Flame Grant me Strength. It can increase Physical and Fire Affinity attack power to +20%. You can find this Incantation on the corpse between the two Maneuverable Flamethrowers behind Fort Gael.

    For Seal, you can use the most basic one, such as Finger Seal. You can get them from Roundtable Hold’s Twin Maiden Husks for 800 Runes.

    Crystal Tears

    You can also temporarily boost your damage output by combining Crystal Tears. You can choose Opaline Hardtear. Because it can temporarily offset all physical damage, you receive by 15% for 3 minutes. You can also opt for Greenburst Crystal Tear. It increases your stamina recovery rate by 15 points per second for a short period of 3 minutes.

    Talismans

    There are also some Talismans that can support this build to reduce your FP consumption and increase your attack power. The first is Carian Filigreed Crest, which reduces that FP cost of skills by up to 25%. This is followed by Dragoncrest Greatshield, which reduces the physical damage you take by 20%.

    There’s also the Shard of Alexander, which quickly boosts your attack power by 15%. Last but not least, use Green Turtle Talisman. It increases your stamina regeneration rate by 8 per second.

    How Does This Build Work?

    For this level 150 build, you’ve got exactly the basic requirements for a Zweihander weapon. In this build, I set Vigor to 45, Endurance to 35, Strength to 78 or more to increase my attack power. And Flame Grant me Strength also requires my Faith to be set to 15.

    For armor, I like to wear a Royal Knight Set. But you can actually wear anything you want. As long as it’s not too heavy, can’t roll, and has medium protection for your character.

    The way this build works is that first you can consume Crystal Tears and cast Flame Grant me Strength Incantation. After that you can start using Ash of War: Lion’s Claw and keep doing regular attacks to break enemy stances.

    That’s all Incantations and gears I need for my level 150 Zweihander build, and how the build works. Hope this guide helps you create an optimal build for your play style.

  • Elden Ring: 10 Best Build Picks To Beat Malenia!

    Posted: Jul 27, 2023

    It’s no secret that Malenia is considered the toughest boss in Elden Ring. Players have attempted to fight her over 329 million times, making her the most attempted boss in the entire game. Today I’m going to show you my 10 Elden Ring builds that beat Malenia.

    10. Sword Of Night And Flame Build

    Number 10 is a Sword of Night and Flame Build. This is a Straight Sword, which mainly relies on data scaling such as Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, and Faith.

    This weapon has a weapon skill called Night-and-Flame Stance. With this skill, you can perform two types of attacks. Press L2+R1 buttons, you can perform “The Night,” which deals with magic damage and increases Intelligence. This skill is similar to Comet Azur, but has a shorter duration.

    By pressing L2+R2 buttons, you can cast Frenzied Burst, which deals fire damage and scales Faith. Combine with Shard of Alexander, Magic Scorpion Charm, Fire Scorpion Charm, Magic-Shrouding Cracked Tear and Flame-Shrouding Cracked Tear to boost your magic and fire attack.

    9. Lightning Uchigatana Build

    Number 9 is Lightning Uchigatana Build. Uchigatana is a type of Katanas with main scaling depending on Strength and Dexterity. This is the starting weapon of Samurai Class. It’s a blood lost build that can be infused with Ash of War and buffed with magic and consumables.

    This makes this weapon a very reliable Katanas, and probably the most versatile weapon in the game. Combined with Ash of War: Raptor of the Mists, which lets you dodge and counterattack. This makes this Dexterity build a good choice for beating Malenia as well.

    8. Blasphemous Blade Build

    Number 8 is Blasphemous Blade Build. Blasphemous Blade is a Greatsword, it related whose primary scaling to Strength, Dexterity, and Faith. It also has Taker's Flames ability, which heals you for 10% of your maximum health when it hits an enemy.

    This ability deals with pure fire damage and only scales with Faith. As long as you hold this weapon, you heal for 4% of your maximum health each time an enemy dies. If you thought Elden Ring was too difficult and you’re looking for an easy way to defeat Malenia, this weapon is the answer.

    7. Grave Scythe Build

    Number 7 is Grave Scythe Build. Grave Scythe is a Reaper that primarily relies on Strength and Dexterity scaling. This weapon can bleed enemies, and the style itself is just like a Grim Reaper.

    6. Nagakiba Build

    Number 6 is Nagakiba Build. Nagakiba is a Katanas mainly measured by Strength and Dexterity. This is the longest Katanas in Elden Ring, can inflict blood loss buildup on enemies, and can also infuse Ash of War. This makes this Katanas very versatile and especially suitable for Dexterity builds. Combined with Ash of War: Spinning Slash, it can deal steady damage to enemies. As such, it also becomes one of the go-to builds for beating Malenia.

    5. Zweihander Build

    Number 5 is Zweihander Build. Zweihander is a Greatsword, mainly measured by Strength and Dexterity. What I love about this weapon is that it has a great range with Ash of War, and can deal massive damage to enemies.

    It also has Moonlight Greatsword skill. You can hold the sword aloft and bathe it in the light of the Dark Moon. This temporarily increases your magical attack and fills your weapon with Frost for 60 seconds.

    3. Rivers Of Blood Build

    Number 3 is Rivers of Blood Build. Rivers of Blood is a Katanas that scales primarily with Strength, Dexterity, and Arcane. This is actually my favorite weapon in Elden Ring with Corpse Piler weapon skill.

    You can perform up to 6 consecutive attacks, which cause bleeding faster. Combine this with a Swarm of Flies Incantation and you can unleash Swarm of Bloodflies, which increases blood loss. Therefore, it becomes a good choice to beat Malenia’s Blood build.

  • Elden Ring: Best Faith & Dexterity Build In Patch 1.09.1 - The Godslayer Build

    Posted: Jul 27, 2023

    Here, I will introduce my Godslayer build in Elden Ring Patch 1.09.1.

    Gear

    Let's start with the more in-depth look at the gear so we can wreck anything and everything.

    Weapons

    First up, we have our main weapon, the Godslayer's Greatsword +10 and we'll be having a lot of fun with its unique skill, which is called The Queen's Black Flame.

    Now, it does have a bit of a long wind-up animation. But once you start spotting enemies punish windows, you will be doing a lot of punishing. Thanks to patch 1.09, Colossal Swords have increased attribute scaling.

    In our offhand, we have the Godslayer Seal +25.

    You can get the Godslayer's Greatsword in a chest behind the Godskin Apostle boss in the Divine Tower of Caelid.

    You can get the Godslayer Seal in the stockroom in Stormville Castle behind an Imp Statue fog gate. You will need one Stonesword Key.

    Armors

    In our armor slots, we have the Raging Wolf Head and chest piece and then glides gauntlets and greaves. This puts us at 51 poise for PVE keeps us at a medium load and looks pretty Elden Bling.

    You can get the full Raging Wolf set from the Volcano Manor Questline and you can get blind set once you finish Ranni's Questline and you return to Ranni's Rise to fight a hostile Blaidd.

    Talismans

    For our Talismans, we have the Shard of Alexander, boosting our Queen's Black Flame skill by 15%. We have the Flock's Canvas Talisman, boosting our incantations by 8%. We have the Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman, boosting our physical defense in PVE by 20%. And we have the Fire Scorpion Charm, boosting our fire damage by 12%.

    You can get the Shard of Alexander from Iron Fist Alexander when beating him at the end of his questline in Crumbling Farum Azula.

    Flock's Canvas Talisman can be received by Gowry when he's crying over Millicent.

    The Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman is found in Elphael Brace of the Haligtree found on a chest on an elevated platform inside the large building in the Northeast guarded by several Pests.

    The Fire Scorpion Charm can be found up the rampart on a wooden platform to the West Fort Laeidd in Mt Gelmir.

    Flask Of Wondrous Physick

    In the Flask of Wondrous Physick, then I am simply using the Flame-Shrouding Cracked Tear to boost our fire damage and then I'll use defensive tears, like the Opaline Hardtear or a stamina tear, like the Greenburst Crystal Tear.

    The Flame-Shrouding Cracked Tear and Greenburst Crystal Tear are dropped by the Erdtree Avatar found at the Minor Erdtree (Caelid).

    The Opaline Hardtear here is dropped by the Putrid Avatar next to the Minor Erdtree north of Fort Farath in Caelid as well.

    Incantations

    As for incantations, we have Golden Vow, boosting our attack in defense.

    We have Flame, Grant Me Strength, boosting our attack and fire attack. We have Black Flame, which scales with your seal and does 2.5% of any boss's maximum health. And you can charge it for an extra 30% damage.

    We have Scouring Black Flame again causing damage over time and can be charged for an extra 22% damage.

    Then, we have Black Flame Ritual, which deals a decent 20% stance damage as well as fire damage.

    • We can get Golden Vow in Mt Gelmir at the Corpse-Stench Shack.
    • We can get Flame, Grant Me Strength in Caelid, around the back of Fort Gael.
    • Black Flame is unlocked for purchase after giving a Godskin Prayerbook to Brother Corhyn or Miriel Pastor of Vows.
    • Scouring Black Flame is dropped by the Godskin Apostle.
    • Black Flame Ritual is in the Spiritcaller Cave dropped by the Spiritcaller Snail that summoned the Godskin Apostle and Godskin Noble in a consecutive boss encounter.

    Before we move on to the stats, we need to mention our oil pots. We are allowing ourselves some consumables in this one. Throwing an oil pot at an enemy will boost the fire damage they recede, so you'll need the following to make them.

    The Crafting Kit can be purchased from Kale in the Church of Elleh.

    You'll need Cracked Pots, which you can purchase throughout the game from various vendors.

    You will need the Nomadic Warriors' Cookbook [17], which can be purchased on the Abandoned Merchant in Siofra River for 1000 Elden Ring Runes. Please note: if you use the code “CSCCA”, you can also get 5% off.

    And you will need Melted Mushroom combined with your Cracked Pots to craft and Oil Pots.

    These can be found growing in the Siofra River and Deeproot Depths.

    Stat Spread

    It's time for the stat spread. I started with the Vagabond class.

    We have Vigor at 60, Mind at 35, Endurance at 27, Strength at 34, Dexterity at 57, Intelligence at 9, Faith at 50, and Arcane at 7. And we're allowing ourselves Rune Level 200.

    Combat

    Let's have a look at combat next.

    It's pretty simple. We can spam the Queen's Black Flame on the Godslayer's Greatsword and we can switch between two handing the sword for the strength boost and one-handing it with our Godslayer Seal to give ourselves access to our Black Flame incantations.

    These can be great for keeping distance between us and the bosses and chip away nicely at enemies health bars. You really can just keep switching it up depending on what you are fighting.
