    Fun Fact: Briars of Punishment is actually quite good against Malenia in base Elden Ring since she doesn't dodge it and since it has pretty big range.

    Sucks that Miyazaki never fleshes out the new magic he adds. All of the spell categories should have had this amount of variety. Briars are so cool conceptually and in lore, but they only get 2 medicore spells.

    This absolutely feels like the one of the best melee classes in the mod, Eochaid's Dancing Blade is absolutely insane with the right build, staggers most bosses and bleeds them immediately.

    I particularly love how some of the spells in this class are corrupted versions of existing glintstone spells. Crystal Burst, Gavel of Haima, Carian Slicer, Comet, Adula’s Moonblade, Starlight etc. Its a smart way of reskinning spells that also fits with the lore of blood sacrifices creating red glintstone.

    Also it's kinda fun that when you got rot from Malenia's my first reflex was to craft and gulp up the pill mid-fight, because Convergence allows crafting mid-fight. And yes I do this often enough for it to pop up in my head in appropriate times on footage :D

  • @hawkmoon5343
    @hawkmoon5343 Рік тому +21

    Even though neither of them are very good, the thorn and magma sorceries are my favorite spells in the base game, and I'm glad the convergence mod did both of them justice. With that in mind you'll never guess what class you should do next...*cough* volcanist *cough*

      Thorn sorceries feel unique in elden ring became of the self damage. It was both interesting from a lore perspective of sacrificing your body to cast spells and from a gameplay perspective of trading health and hemorrhage buildup for cheap spells.

    While you went for the big weapon and more magic focused, I actually went for the Marais Executioner Sword because of Sadistic Glee and Winged Insignia talisman and just wrecked bosses with it
    Although, I did suffer more by the hands of Elemer (I hate him with the rage of a thousand men)
    Overall, very good class to pick, very fun but you still have to put in effort to win (which is good in my eyes)

    This is sick and all, but i kinda wish someone would do a more melee oriented build in Convergence. Cuz these mage builds are sick and all, but I do kinda wanna see what it has to offer for balls to the walls str builds or dex mains. Cuz I feel like they are very underappreciated classes. And if that's because they're dogshit, that's fine, but at least it'll bring some attention to it so the modders can fix it.

    The Abberant Heretic is an interesting case, as it almost feels as if it and the Blood Initiate should’ve swapped their health-related costs. However, yeah this class is cool. Telekinesis is cool, the sheer volume of red and thorns is both romantic and deadly, the recoloured Glint sorceries make some sense from a lore perspective; overall, a very fun class.

    I played more the melee part of the class, and i can say for certain, its ridiculously more overpower than using the sorcery. With the executioner sword, malenias rune and all melee related briar buffs sorceries you basically become a bloody lifesteal god. Damage? Absurd, malenia? From boss to runefarm easily staggered using telekinesis shell, healing? Sadistic glee and executioner sword ash of war and you can outheal any(oumost) attack, barely used healing flasks 10/10 perfectly balanced class

    Also, he is so much harder than his area would suggest. he feels like he should be in the bowels of caelid, where all the horror birds are, and not in the easy to navigate/clear shaded castle.
    Also x2, why is the bleed boss in the poison swamp castle? that feels like a servant of rot area.
