Yep letting go of it is hard, but sacred bloody flesh + exultation talisman are plenty enough on their own. My offhand forked hatchet has more than 1000 AR after both, adding white mask to that is just overkill lol
@@agularis_I used a really nasty white mask+veteran’s set arcane build at level 65 just after launch. It’s what I got my first seven hundred rune arcs on. Back when you’d just stand in Liurnia and invade into the meanest ganks and afk farmers. I’m not proud of it, but I was rusty after not invading in Dks3 for a couple years and running an incredibly sweaty, optimized mid-level build got me back in the saddle. I do actually kinda miss the afk farmers, I had a ton of fun glitch running to their spot while they visibly panicked, sniping them off ledges with the cannon or greatbow, or even just messaging them on PSN and convincing them to kill themselves.
@@spiraljumper74 bleed definitely got a lot of hate back around release, but these days with busted things like backhand blades I don't feel bad anymore lol
ChaseTheBow, I am returned to advise usage of the Igon's Greatbow on your greatbow builds! It allows you to defeat hosts WITH A HAIL OF HARPOONS! WITH EVERY LAST DROP OF YOUR BEING!
When you think about that one torch that does madness. Its a spine and im guessing chase has it as his spine because truly avoiding such a great weapon is true madness
Enjoying the new builds a lot recently!! I remember one of your older videos where you did an "All Status Effects" combo build, and I thought about the new Staff of the Great Beyond that casts both sorceries & incantations... I would love to see a level 150/200 build where you just use as many different things as possible from all over the game- status, spells, weapons, etc. Love your content as always

Man these little edits with text descriptions and short clips while explaining the weapon at the start really add to the video, chase has been improving lately, very nice!
Man i watch you tear it up every night and it makes me wanna try pvp for myself, yet every time i get unbelievably rektd. You're something else entirely.
Chase, I dont even play elden ring anymore but I absolutely look forward to your video's every single day. I really appreciate you staying creative with your builds and STILL posting every day, keep up the good work man.
It might not really be your style, but I'd love to see your take on a patient stealth build. I've gotten a bit frustrated with invasions lately since winning 1v3s is really not easy for the rest of us, and decided to try something new. Furled Finger trick mirror to turn off the glow, crepus's vial, concealing veil and dark plain clothing along with the Balled Up gesture will have all 3 enemies just running right past you without even noticing. This is teaching me to be a bit more patient and pick my spots better, and if I lose I don't feel too bad because my weapons, armor, and talismans are all aimed at being stealthy rather than having high defense and attack! I'm curious how you'd go about it, and maybe you'd find it to be a fun change of pace for one video.
7:34 😂 “DKbadass” is a badass in name but a TRUE COWARD fleeing for the re-summon the moment it turns into a 1 on 1 like his real life depended on it! 😂😂😂.
I figure that most hosts running back towards the grace are trying to move their bloodstain closer for easier retrieval. Since they know Chase is inevitable
Wizards mentioned at least 12 times: 04:04 What the heck Wizard 04:06 Always Wizards 04:50 If they don't have Wizardry, but they do have Wizardry 06:40 Is that a Wizard 06:42 Definitely a team of Wizards 06:45 Some Wizarding 06:51 That's one Wizard, the Host Wizard 06:55 This Wizard 20:11 I see there are Wizards 20:46 Wizard Since I started counting there were 5203.9 mentionings of Wizards across 434 videos.
in case you didnt know, the npc gank invasion sign goes away if there is an invader so you cant get fog walled for that area. another fun fact is that on loading into the gank fight itself your flasks and such are reset as if you sat at a grace, this also goes for player summons too so dont worry about not having enough for the fight on the way to the invasion sign.
Replying to this comment to not have to edit it, but I feel like sharing that I enjoy running this weapon with the Poison Flower Blooms Twice as the Ash of War since it can inflict Scarlet Rot but more importantly is a fast Estus punish that does Piercing damage and thus can take advantage of Counter Hits, alongside an offhand Poisoned Hand for the damage bonus when Poison occurs which also does fantastic Poison buildup by itself. Combine that with the Mushroom Crown, both the Kindred of Rot's Exultation and Lord of Blood's Exultation, and some Sacred Bloody Flesh for ludicrous damage boosts, you can easily reach 1.5k Attack Power with the Great Katana and all it takes is inflicting Bleed and Poison, which are already good statuses to be inflicting anyway at their own benefit. You can optionally combine this with the Dragon Communion Seal, 70 Arcane and 16 Faith (the ideal starting class is Prophet for the Faith and Mind) gives you an Incantation scaling of 307, which is truly excellent for a build not even focused on casting. There are many fantastic options like Rotten Breath (you monster), The Flame of Frenzy (you monster), Bloodboon, Swarm of Flies, Pest Threads, Fire Serpent, Bestial Sling, Catch Flame, you get my point. You also get a bit of defensive utility in the form of Bestial Vitality, and you can be a bit crazy and use both Bayle's Flame Lightning and Bayle's Tyranny if you really feel like it, you have the Arcane levels to do so. Arcane builds are crazy.
Bearer of the torch Seek madness. Unhinged, more fiery madness. Seek the host, that is the only way. Lest the wizards swallow you whole... As it has so many others.
I can only imagine how much more terrifying the invasions would be if they had proximity chat. The last thing you hear before being one shot “a wizard… dishonest” 😂
14:11 you really have to wonder what goes through their mind. It misses again and again and again. And they think "just maybe. This next time is it" like bruh
17:16 Wth? Did he sent a clone dashing to the left while trying to escape through the tunnel? That triple poke with the katana looks like the move set for the needle sword from Naruto and fast as well.
I got ganked so bad yesterday by a team of three spamming dragon breath and sorceries and all I could think was “I wish Chase invades them next so he can teach them the lesson I’m not skilled enough to teach!” Lol
I have been doing a Arcane Caster lately with Clayman's Harpoon and it get's surprisingly high scaling with Occult infusion. 18 fth, 26 int and around 60 arc has given me good results so far.
Am i only one that notices Chase doing the intro/outro from a variety of locations now? ER has so many great views it's hard to pick one to stick to now eh?
When you are running away facing away from the enemy holding the block button, does that actually block you from getting it if you get hit from behind?
2:46 shoutout to that guy’s build, cool drip and an axe and shield always looks nice Also damn that semi competent radahn hunter, are co-op players getting smarter?
@chase the bro I am new to pvp and your channel but I really enjoy your videos. Have you ever thought of doing a pvp mechanics guide? Would love to learn and Keep up the videos man!!!
Hope you're doing well bro! Love arcane builds, insane burst damage haha Have you tried any seamless co-op invasions? You can see the latency, although it seems like if someone has unstable internet it doesn't change to reflect that very quickly/often but still the latency is way better than vanilla PC
If you proc madness on someone, you can land an uncharged R2 using the madness fists, which can be boosted even more by using the Aged one’s exaltation. Secondly, you can proc the secondary boost from the Sacred Bloody flesh on demand by using the seppuku ash of war.
You can lead a host to water but you can't tell him what to drink.
Wow... That is so good lmao
He's gonna drink his FP flask so he can use Rivers of Blood weapon art at the water
@@warframelichyt1 hp? Nah I’d CERULEAN FLASK

"Why does my red juice taste like blue juice?"
16:32 FYI, Rivers of blood guy hit L2 28 times
It's so pathetic it's hilarious
15:36 He hit R2 21 times and no, he did not use another button the whole time. 🤣
Remarkable, truly the achetypal Rivers of Blood user.
Most impressive of it all is that he missed almost all attacks. 😂
My gosh. Truly impressive specimen
Truly a reflection of this game's design
My man is an Ash of war enjoyer for sure.
I know it's besides the point but it's L2 not R2 lol
Dex Bleed, STR BLEED, Full ARC. So many styles, the only problem is the that the white mask looks so awful.
Just dont use it lol
Yep letting go of it is hard, but sacred bloody flesh + exultation talisman are plenty enough on their own. My offhand forked hatchet has more than 1000 AR after both, adding white mask to that is just overkill lol
White Mask is okay. I found it looks decent with solitude armor.

Please stop talking

Oh my god. Make like a tree and get lost with your puns
Chase can’t even get his sentence or his observation out in time before the summon dies at 16:42 . Now that’s bloody hilarious.
I would say a torch surrounding a frenzied god that people worship is pretty Occult, Chase
i don't know, i'd say its more mad

So, theres a cool torch.
As the golden barbs inflicted eternal agony upon us, we held fast to Chase's entreaty:
"Await the usage of Nanaya's Torch."
The sentence was a curse.
Paired Occult Scavenger's Curved Swords with a dex/arc build and Seppuku. Absolute warcrime.
i was about to say it’s a shame you can’t get 2 in NG+0 but it’s probably for the best…
Rosus’s Axe awaits chasethebro’s mighty hand and skillful art of warring!

It's because he might as well be fighting NPC's

Chase you should try out the Messmer soldier axe, it has a super fast r1,r1 combo that unknowing players will get hit by twice
Pure madness invasions with that damn torch, just do it Chase.
Why? If he does it you’ll just demand for some other weird weapon to spam in comments. He might as well let this ride for years.

I really like that the great katanas have the charged R2 feint. I know it's not very useful or practical but man does it look cool !
