@@dearcastiel4667 plus, you can say that about any category, sure, each weapon has similar move sets, but they all have different scalings, buildups, etc.
@@mushroomy9899 plus some ashes of war just work on a single weapon type that has only 4-3 weapons like the light greatswords and their winged stance, or the overhead stance which could really be used on regular katanas :/
For something that's supposed to represent something that's twisted and so brittle it could break at any second, the Shadow Sunflower Blossom hits like a damn tank.
Surprised you didn't mention that the Gazing Finger's ash of war actually scales off of Faith (truly it does, for some gods forsaken reason). Such a cool but very very weird weapon.
@@rivera3312 I think dataminers have dug through the files with Smithbox. That and damage testing by some YTbers. The E scaling with faith is a lie when it comes to the skill. Anyway the scaling on the Holy damage are pretty bad regardless. From base requirements to 60 INT/FTH gives like 5-10% more damage to the skill iirc.
Devonia's Hammer is ridiculous. If you land a fully-charged slam with Godfrey's and Shard, with just basic damage buffs, it's almost guaranteed to one-shot pretty much anybody.
i am convinced at this point that monk either has like 10 identical characters that the only difference is the stat spread, or that he is on like ng+20. its gotta be one or the other, so that he can keep changing his build multiple times every video to showcase EVERY WEAPON IN THE GAME
I wish there were more variety in colossal weapon styles. Base game gave us hammers, but also a halberd and a couple axes, but all the new ones are basically big mostly-flat surfaces on a stick, aka hammers. Flower is cool tho, 3vwn if it's more hammer-esque than finger face and ogre arm
Is having that big of a bleed effect really even that big of a deal? Aren’t you already basically killing them with base damage especially since bleed always leaves people with go leftover in this game
I love Bloodfiend's Arm. Definitely my favorite. It makes me look like I am actually good at this game. Furthermore, you win with by mashing the R2 button indiscriminately, like a sophisticate, and not mashing the L2 button indiscriminately, like some cretin.
they could’ve made existing colossal weapons more viable instead of making a dozen new ones. I’m glad they found a way to make them unique, powerful and fun (with colossals you often lack two of those). But still, we could have had 4 more light greatswords instead of these and come on we got two fth/str hammers, one of which is a ripoff of ordovis’s vortex? When do we get faith based katana? When do we get int based twinblade? We have two int katanas and they added another one+magic katana without int scaling. They are badass but still why do they keep adding to something that is already so abundant? I hate to be negative but it does frustrate me a lot how so much effort went into something we already have quite enough
I'll never understand Souls PVP or how players find it enjoyable. At 7:51 he takes bleed status buildup but no health damage. Obvious hits register no damage and whiffs stagger. Its 15yrs of spaghetti network code at this point.
12:25 a true user of the Lamina could have easily backstabbed a colossal. Misrepresentation of my weapon, unfortunately. I am awaiting your review on the Obsidian Lamina as well, I am guessing that it will be in October like last time so I will be waiting with bated breath.
Ngl its really sad we still have some of the same animations from demon souls and dark souls 1 with the most minuscule change. FromSoft meat riders will say “its a reference to their old games” for certain bosses sure but other than that its just laziness
micheal zaki adding 200 OP colossal weapons in the dlc instead of having more than one infusable weapon in each new category
The thing is, each new weapon category only has 1 moveset, so there's no real point having more than one of each being infusable.
Micheal zaki?
@@dearcastiel4667 no? raksasha and the great katana have entirely different move sets for example

Nice placement of the finger in the tumbnail.
Came here to say the same thing
@@niko8986 You "came" here?
Same
that lady maria cosplay was pretty cool around 13:00 . they swapped their paired swords for a twinblade
That thumbnail is crazy 💀💀💀

It also scales off int
@@jojo-ln7zd Only the head slam, the shockwave is a pure holy faith scaling invasion stomping monster
@@rivera3312 it's pure holy damage scaling off Int and Faith
Yea this weapon is 5 kinds of whacky.
Kinda like the boss we get it from.
@@Messmer-The-Impaler-n8i Where are you getting the info that the shockwave scales with int because I can't find that anywhere

Exactly. Easily my fav weapon.
6:05 Devonia can Out damage the Anvil by a few hundred but the Amvil hammer does more poise when everything connects

my brother in cheatengine
@@mushroomy9899 but then no pvp?
@@Domarius_GreyratIf you use cheat engine offline when you go online nothing will happen as long as you don't give yourself illegal items.
@@joenathan115 oh ok.
@@joenathan115 additionally you can use it if you’re on seamless co op because their anticheat sucks
You call 'em weird I call 'em Monster Hunter style weapons because who doesn't love the classic head one stick? I sure do!

Im js wondering how long hes gonna be able to keep doin this typa content cus its rlly good and i dont really want him to fall off 🤷
I have plans brudda don’t worry 🙏
Thank god🙏
let him COOK
The best weapons. Second to claymore
I never knew I needed to hear monk singing Sunflower by Post Malone before crushing a man to death, but here we are
I love sunflowers, I wanna make a flower maiden build
Man I didn’t think anyone else knew about the jump to run attack tech, I never see anyone do it and I trip up so many people
All R2s on lizard sword apply double status if you land both hits. I think it's even better than a chicken leg
The devounias hammer is such a cool colossal weapon I don’t get why people hate on it
It’s just unfortunate because Ordovis’s Greatsword is objectively a better choice. The skill does more stance damage and it has better scaling
Fun fact: Gazing finger's aow totally scale on faith but does magic damage.
wake up monk posted
Missed a huge "finger, but hold." Moment
monk has all the properties of a typical colossal cutie :3
Really cool think about the gazing finger is that it’s aow scales off of faith
They really it turn try finger but whole into a boss huh
It's so weird watching you pvp me
How do you respec for these builds? Tears? Another way? Mods?
The first guy you fought with the big hammer what was that big wind storm?
what is that ash of war at 1:40
The boolfiends fork with seppuku is a one hit bleed
thanks monk now i can finally have an opinion on these

Wish we had one with the Inferno Crozier heavy
This guy's videos make me feel alright
Very slick with the thumbnail buddy
They ain’t cursed… they’re perfect for the ungas to the bungas
any day monk posts is a good day
10:43 Should have said "it has nothing on this thing-ger."
My 2nd favorite wepon type after staff bonks
Miyazaki should have made the finger a toe instead

Eating all greases when
Big bonk
Hyper armor gose crazzy
i was waiting for this video
Day 61 of asking for a Messmer cosplay build video.
11:07 so that means it doesn’t have the exact same moveset as the shadow sunflower
Elden Monk🗿
Bleed nerf when?
Erm actually it’s pronounced like Blithe and not Blide

(That was me) he rolled so he gets invulnerability frames but status build up still works
