Elden Ring (Game of the Year!)

When a fighting game player plays Elden Ring PvP… there WILL be combos!

Been enjoying NG+ more than the first time through, just going dungeon to dungeon without having to do the more repetitive stuff.

Iv also been having the problem of not wanting to branch out from bloodhound fang any time I do a new character. I’m always thinking “it’s RIGHT there and it’s so good” and just end up going back to my comfort zone

It’s a pretty good PvE weapon. I used it a bunch on my 1st playthrough. Then I used it with the Dismounter, since they’re both great curveswords, it allowed me to powerstance them which made them pretty strong in PvE. Only issue is how slow great curveswords are, which, they’re not the slowest weapon class or anything, I think their speed is balanced with their dmg output. It’s just that vs some bosses, it was just too slow so I ended up mainly just doing jumping L1’s. Which does great damage, but got boring after awhile.

I feel the same way about the Flail.

They’re slow but the weapon art on BHF is what makes it so fun to use for me. Definitely gonna try out a different weapon next time. How is bastards stars? Only care about PvE.

I mainly PvP, it’s what keeps me playing these games long after their release. Definitely looking forward to the DLC, cannot wait.

Anyway, been trying out a bunch of different builds for the Colosseum duels. I eventually found the fist weapon class weapon the “Katar”, which has been super fun and actually pretty good. But as I said, been trying a bunch of different builds out, some meta but most off meta. Anyway, started trying out regular curved swords (not great curved swords, the smaller ones) and found out that both the Mantis Blade and the Beastman’s Curved Sword both have their own unique true combos. The Mantis Blade’s charged R2 true combos into R1, and the Beastman’s Curved Sword’s jumping R2 true combos into R1. And since both are curved swords, I can powerstance them as well. They have good synergy and ontop of all that, both also can get custom Ashes of War. Now these definitely aren’t meta weapons and this isn’t a meta build, but it has been super fun do far. Made a short video showcasing them. But this was after very little play time with them, so just keep that in mind! Anyway, check out the video and if you could, please subscribe! It will help out tremendously!

Malekith and Godskin Duo are such awful stupid fights. Malekith is pretty fun as beast clergyman though, but the run back gets tedious.
Morgot/Margit, Godfrey, and Godrick make up for it though.
