Thank you, brave tarnished for showing the world the true power of our tactics! May all of you aspiring knights find success on your journey ! FOR CARIA, AND THE FULL MOON!
I been using the damn sword for like forever now and the stupid godskin dickhole keeps bodying me like tf do I gotta do? Jump him at night so the moon is out?!
when you get moonblade the rest of them except for pierce is just useless and even then pierce has a long windup you should just charge a greatsword and get that jucy sweet knockback.
The Carian sword sorceries are honestly the most fun you can have as a sorcerer. Sure, slinging different flavors of the same blue rock is maybe a little more effective, but nothing beats the elegance and raw satisfaction of turning your staff into a Glintstone lightsaber.
@@CrazyCaleohammer isn’t but Loretta’s spells apparently count? Best guess is cause otherwise cannon of haima would be a spell class of 1 spell, and cannon of haima doesn’t fit in with the carian sorceries
@@DronesOverTheMoonWAS* but your point still stands. She left and started to serve the Haligtree to try and find a cure for albinaurics and is also why she is found there.
Fun fact: if you boost your END to 97, you can dual-wield the Carian Knight Swords, as well as the Carian Glintstone Staves, and the Carian Knight Shield while still being able to light-roll.
Nizar you're an awesome content creator. The cinematography, the sound and video editing, the information, the builds and the comedy! Appreciate you so much my guy
True, for those fights you have to temporarily abandon your Carian ways lol. I'm doing this build but to take care of the glintstone dragon I grabbed rock sling. It deals physical damage, scales with int, and combined with glintstone phalanx allowed me to stance break the dragon over and over until death.
Summary: the carian knight art is done by a chad who knows about how to really grip a sword I love how in the carian knight art he is gripping the sword with a finger over the crossguard, this tecnique improoves controll over the blade and is often seen in italian historical swordfighting texts from the 15th century utilizing the sidesword.
Absolutely! His art is also what inspired me to make this video. The finesse involved in it is splendid. Manuel and I talked about artistic direction pre-production and how it can translate to the game. Ultimately I did like using Moongrum as an established, elegant entity to bring home the various themes associated with Carian Knights.
It can have some beneficts but it's not worth, It makes your finger an easy target. There are some swords with a ring on the guard for that reason that makes that stance practical, but in a sword like the carian sword it's pretty much exposing your finger to an experienced swordsman.
You sir, trully ceate quality content not to mention builds. Your love and appreciation for this game can be seen in every video you make. Can’t like this vid enough, sick build man! Love it
This build is what I was looking for at the begginning of my journey on Elden Ring ! A kinda magic knight who uses magic & sword style, being versatile Thanks for this vid & great editing as always PS : Moongrum rekt me into the depth of darkness & sorrow when I first crossed his path. Then I went back to him in my 2nd journey with dual Hammer.
@@Clayt910 aye, with one of my characters it was almost the same only that Moongrum fell down the elevator shaft when he had around 50% health, great fun fact 😀
with one of my characters I killed Moongrum right at the first try with a medium leveled Bloodhound`s Fang, same in the following fight against Rennala with the help of my Skeletal Militiaman Ashes (+5), I permanentley hit her, so she wasn`t able to do any action of her own and she died in nearly no time
What really makes this Carian Knight build stand out from the others to me is how you went into the combos. I struggled with even to bother with Ashes of War and a physical weapon, and would try too hard to rely on this shield just for blocking. Tried too hard to focus on spells only. I think I finally have some solid alternatives to Pebble and Loretta's Greatbow now too. Thank you.
I found that Night Comet is just too good to pass up for dealing with flighty enemies if Magic Glintblade isn't cutting it. You also have enough Int for Ranni's Dark Moon, which is a great way to start a boss fight if cast on Terra Magica. Paired with Adula's Moonblade it almost guarantees frostbite AND shreds magic absorption on the target.
seriously, you're such a talented creator. can't believe I watched a random video about mages in Elden Ring and all led up to this, your content feels very different already but in such a refreshing way. and man, i fucking love your accent and have no idea where you're from.
Nizar, I recommend the Carian Knight armor and helmet with the scaled gauntlets and greaves. That'll put you at 51 poise while still keeping the look of the armor. I also like to add Loretta's bow.
Heavier he would be over encumbered and this in no way an original thought . The sweet spot for poise is 56 so 51 doest do much at all for you I'm high level high endurance so I'm light rolling at 60 -87 poise depending on what weapons or talisman I use .
@@DeoSiege nop, for PvE (the focus of the video) the only 2 values that matter are 51 and 101, as all enemy attacks deal poise damage in increments of 50, and for PvP (wich isn't the focus of the video, but 56 is still wrong for it) the smallest value that is meaningful is 58, as most fast 1 handed R1s deal 57 poise damage in PvP
Your videos never disappoint. You can feel the love and time you pour into these vids. Another great build I’m gonna have to try smh…I’m running out of renallas eggs 😅
Carian Sword desperately needs an AoW re-work. It should allow a light/heavy input along with a base (no attack input) version that does three different Carian sword attacks. For example: AoW+Heavy = Carian Grandeur, AoW+Light = Carian Piercerm AoW+no input = Carian Greatsword. And these should be combined with a hidden multiplier that at the very least puts it on par with the generic AoW. I figure re-working this weapon has got to be on their to-do list.
I have watched so many elden ring build videos on youtube that they now get recommended to me constantly and I am completely bored with them. However yours are the only ones I still enjoy watching because of the pure entertainment value and presentation.
I would also recommend Rogier's Rapier as an alternative to the Lordsworns straight sword, you can get it early on after godrick at +8 and it has a fitting great blade phalanx ash of war and aesthetic. Its move set is unique among the thrusting swords having pretty strong heavy attacks and you can swap out the ash of war for the grandeur if you so please. Great video and Editing I enjoyed it thoroughly.
Such good detail in this video. Not just displaying a build, but going into lore and the deep mechanics behind why the build works, and showing everything it can do.
Iv only not long discovered you Nizar and i don't think I'm gonna regret with the help of your videos u helping me get through this amazing looking game 🙋♀️ My skills are dreadful and iv not idear what so ever where to start when it comes making up a build, I'm really looking forward to you taking me on this long journey and building up the right knowledge to get me to the end.
God damn I thought I was done with this game already and here comes Nizar with yet another cool looking build. Just when I thought I was out... I get pulled right back in.
Amazing quality and build as usual. I really like how you go through different strategies for each boss. That will absolutely help new players to discover strategies and combos when trying your builds. And we are going to get a lot of new and returning players soon when the DLC lands. I would still like to see a STR Fist build. I did one with IronBall at the beginning and later switched to StarFist and it was a blast. Now that I finished the CarianKnight playthrough I think I will try a Claw/Bleed build. Claws have been buffed and they look crazy fun.
Damn this is the kind of build I wanted to try for a new playthrough, and this video is insanely well done and exactly what I wanted! Good job mate, can't wait to give it a go.
As someone who once was a mage who for some reason got close to every enemy, and now is a guy with a BIG FUCKING HAMMER all i can say is that guy has THE drip.
Awesome. I'm playing this painful toxic game called Hell-den Ring and I have seen many videos to reach the final boss. Your videos is beautiful and full of infos, top content. Thanks.
I tried a Moongrum cosplay once because I really like the melee spellsword abilities, some of them are super useful, like Piercer just knocking down the Leonines and the hammer staggering them. It was hard to stick to it, though, because the Carian Knight Sword has a block on charged heavy, which actually makes it very slightly slower, enough that charged heavies on enemies you knock down are no longer safe, and the block was NEVER useful. Very sad stuff. The versatility of everything else is insanely good, though. It's easy to just go wild with Slicer and dodge when appropriate, but using spell combos with virtual dex and getting creative on an enemy-by-enemy basis is so fun. Really sad Carian Knight Sword is such a huge disadvantage in terms of damage AND versatility since it's easily my favorite looking straight sword in the game.
I want to know how this child learned to edit videos and make such fun narratives. It's not the most comprehensive and informative video but it's data driven enough to make it a bonefide guide. More importantly, the editing and use of audio is so good. You're truly talented.
The Carrian Knight's Sword *is* a somber weapon, so it is much easier to upgrade than any infusable weapon, but yeah I do agree I think it could have used an *actually unique* AoW or maybe something like the AoW of the Dragon Halberd, where it gives the weapon a buff after using it.
I'm a fan of your content and you never disappoint. I've built 6 different characters and 3 of them were built using your advice. I toggle between those different characters and still find them effective in NG + 4
I actually subbed for the subscriber pull, that was smooth dude. Great video, what a pity that the Carian Longsword special itself is worse than pretty much ANY counterpart with the same Ash of War!!
If you aren’t comfortable with the low damage absorption of the armour set I used the full hoslow armour set after getting to the mountain tops and if you want to push your endurance a little further you can wear a little bit of the scaled set as long as you remove the shield and dagger form your kit.
Just a quick thought, putting glintblade phalanx on misericorde is great for crit damage, but you get better poise damage from a larger weapon as the extra attack does the same damage as a jumping attack from the weapon equipped, put it on the claymore or similar and watch people fall over instantly. :)
Does that mean that the poise damage of the phalanx AoW depends on the weapon it is used with? I’m wondering how to pull this off still even after the patch…
been playin ER with my dad and it is not the first time i play it, but to him it is so he looked up "strong elden ring build" and got this thanks so much for not getting me stuck with a frenzy flame build. PS:FOR CARIA, AND THE FULL MOON
It’s been a whole year that I’m using “Ray of Caria” a character of mine entirely built as the perfect carian knight for coop. Man, I call him the invader nightmare. Almost never lost a fight with that guy both against bosses or other players. Not cause I’m that good at the game, really I don’t think I am. I suck especially in pvp cause I panic. But the carian knight has generally so many tricks up his sleeves, and it’s so efficient both in ranged and melee combat that you always have a way to overcome any opponent through tactics, strategy/intelligence. Especially if you have the original carian shield with its proper antimage ash of war. That’s unstoppable. Only other build I think could be that strong is the hybrid Strength/Faith/Dex Leyndell Dragonic Knight build, with gransax spear and the Erdtree Shield. (Basically original Godwyn the Golden build) Edit: Just wanna add this just because. I have three different “Ray of Caria” characters, same name slightly different appearance, completely different levels. I used to daily leave my summon sign with all 3 of them in any location related to Caria and the academy of Raya Lucaria. One on his early twenties around level 30, Another mid-twenties around level 75 And the last thirty years old, level 175 If you ever met one of those during this last year, glad I’ve been of any help.
At 27:18 it says he has 12 Dex and 10 strength but I at base (I can see it rn cuz I'm respecing my stats) have 14 dex and 11 strength, i started as a prisoner using his spell blade build so when i saw this video in the description I thought I try it, now I'm just confused lol (great video and content overall)
One thing about the Carian Knight sword that I like is its semi-unique R2 (shared with one other weapon) that blocks attacks during the charge animation. I used a weapon with a similar mechanic in Dark Souls 3, and it can be fun to deflect attacks that way, rather than try to time a parry or use your staff hand for a shield.
I decided to change my old INT build to this. A shame it's from before 1.02 and I didn't know how to get the Magic Scorpion Charm (Selvus sucks) then, so I'm locked out of that +12% until NG+. Oh well. The good news is that it enables me to use the Bull-goat's Talisman, which lets me enjoy some poise with my style. Really good for trading with Carian Grandeur. I look forward to clowning on Margit with this build at full power.

My last run last summer I had a carian knight character, however I used Loretta's spear and barely used magic. I had no idea I could be this broken
This Spellblade style build has easily become one of my favorites. Top tier damage and you have a wide array of options for pretty much any situation.
Right?
when you get moonblade the rest of them except for pierce is just useless and even then pierce has a long windup you should just charge a greatsword and get that jucy sweet knockback.
Also, being a sorcerer knight is cool as all hell
@@sentientmustache8360 I agree. Why minmax in magic or melee when you can be a master of both.
The Carian sword sorceries are honestly the most fun you can have as a sorcerer. Sure, slinging different flavors of the same blue rock is maybe a little more effective, but nothing beats the elegance and raw satisfaction of turning your staff into a Glintstone lightsaber.
Damn, why THE HAMMER isn't a carian sorcery.
@@CrazyCaleohammer isn’t but Loretta’s spells apparently count?

PS:FOR CARIA, AND THE FULL MOON
It’s been a whole year that I’m using “Ray of Caria” a character of mine entirely built as the perfect carian knight for coop. Man, I call him the invader nightmare. Almost never lost a fight with that guy both against bosses or other players. Not cause I’m that good at the game, really I don’t think I am. I suck especially in pvp cause I panic. But the carian knight has generally so many tricks up his sleeves, and it’s so efficient both in ranged and melee combat that you always have a way to overcome any opponent through tactics, strategy/intelligence. Especially if you have the original carian shield with its proper antimage ash of war. That’s unstoppable.
Only other build I think could be that strong is the hybrid Strength/Faith/Dex Leyndell Dragonic Knight build, with gransax spear and the Erdtree Shield. (Basically original Godwyn the Golden build)
Edit: Just wanna add this just because.
I have three different “Ray of Caria” characters, same name slightly different appearance, completely different levels. I used to daily leave my summon sign with all 3 of them in any location related to Caria and the academy of Raya Lucaria.
One on his early twenties around level 30,
Another mid-twenties around level 75
And the last thirty years old, level 175
If you ever met one of those during this last year, glad I’ve been of any help.
At 27:18 it says he has 12 Dex and 10 strength but I at base (I can see it rn cuz I'm respecing my stats) have 14 dex and 11 strength, i started as a prisoner using his spell blade build so when i saw this video in the description I thought I try it, now I'm just confused lol (great video and content overall)
are there any tweaks that I should consider to make in this build after the recent patches?
One thing about the Carian Knight sword that I like is its semi-unique R2 (shared with one other weapon) that blocks attacks during the charge animation. I used a weapon with a similar mechanic in Dark Souls 3, and it can be fun to deflect attacks that way, rather than try to time a parry or use your staff hand for a shield.
I decided to change my old INT build to this. A shame it's from before 1.02 and I didn't know how to get the Magic Scorpion Charm (Selvus sucks) then, so I'm locked out of that +12% until NG+. Oh well.
The good news is that it enables me to use the Bull-goat's Talisman, which lets me enjoy some poise with my style. Really good for trading with Carian Grandeur.
I look forward to clowning on Margit with this build at full power.
Yeah, I'm switching to this in anticipation for the DLC (the last "DLC" build I tried switching to was already fucking patched by Fromsoft)
Only 309 less dmg st endgame? The look of the sword is worth. Elden bling for life.
