If anyone mains strength and wants to try magic, I recommend make an entire run using only gravity spells/ gravity weapons. Gravity weapons scales with Strength and most gravity spells pulls your enemy towards you so you have a strong weapon that can reach 800 ATT with only 40 STR. It's a fun build to pull your enemy then bonk them.
@@bigrarkz7465 Keep in mind that strength from two-handed damage bonus isn't hard-capped. So two-handing with 99 strength gives you effectively 148 stat. Though none of it matters here, staffs only scale sorcery potency with int.
@@bigrarkz7465that would only work if the staff's sorcery scaling scales off of strength (like how the clawmark seal's does). Otherwise, 2-handing would just increase your staff bonk damage
@@part-timeprick7217 yeah but the builds some people make to show how magic is OP can't be made without exploring the world in a very specific way, that no player would do unless they knew exactly what they're looking for.

Fun fact, you can offhand azurs staff and cast with another to get faster casting on better scaling staffs. I’m pretty sure this works with every other staff except Lusat’s.
@@domin8tion651lmao at that point casting glintstone pebble would drain you in three hits. Possibly the wildest thing is if you put lusats staff in your offhand you gain all the extra FP consumption with literally no upside. So heads up do not try lol. I also found that there might be a magic damage cap because I got to a point where adding more buffs to damage seemed to glitch out and reduce damage. So be careful, once you’re hitting 80 int and doing your final damage maximization’s make sure you test to make sure you’re actually getting the correct buffs for the downsides you’re taking on
Specifically the Godfrey icon mixed with stars of ruin. That spell sucks unless you have mega damage and once I was doing around 2600 with stars of ruin Godfrey icon ended up reducing damage when charged instead of an increase
@@monhi64 were u using luscats crown? I don’t think there is a buff cap but you can only have 1 body buff: flame grant me strength/howl of shabriri and 1 aura buff: golden vow
@@domin8tion651 yes? I think I was using lusats crown. I know I was for some of the testing but I took it on and off. But it was always the Godfrey icon that was “breaking the build” and reducing damage instead of increasing. Which would make sense if I was somehow over writing a buff with Godfrey icon but I didn’t think Godfrey icon was incompatible with any buffs. I didn’t use flame grant me strength or howl of shabiri or even golden vow, just terra magicka. Terra didn’t really work either since I could only get a miniscule buff out of it but at least it wasn’t reducing anything. So the only way this makes sense is if somehow Godfrey icon over writes an equipment/talisman buff but I have no clue what it could over write. Sorry that’s all probably very confusing to comprehend
I’m actually surprised. I thought you had at least 10k subs. It’s really good content. I can imagine a new player would really love these for not going to mid game areas as soon as you start.
As a new player who's in the middle of Liurnia right now, yeah this was a really really good video. Didn't even know half those areas existed even though I've been a fan of watching ER videos since launch. Wish I could understand how to even think of getting all those items tho.
Stack as many fire/incantation boosts and buffs as you can, dual wield the Giant’s Seal, cast Flame of the Fell God, throw an oil pot while it’s slowly floating to its target, and follow up with a fully charged Godfrey-boosted Giantsflame as FotFG impacts. That’s all I got, I’m sure there are even more ridiculous and tedious setups, but that’s easily 5-digit burst damage right there
The bubbles can 1 hit Margit, if you enter the arena and then just stack them 4 where he lands (from right in front of the cutscene trigger, cast a 5'th as you cross the scene trigger and voilà! He'll just explode on spawn, and walk right into the 5th! 😉
The Andrew rate ramble is really funny when you realize that worms are decomposers and absolutely are necessary in the environment “most people are worms” so most people are doing arguable the most important step of putting nutrients back in the earth to keep plants alive and well
Well 10 worms will contribute more to the good of future generation of humanity by decomposition in a week than tate will in lifetime . No wonder he calls them useless.
I love the arrow marionettes, they are one ash i get on every character no matter what. They are worth it just for cheesing big magic lady alone, you rush her and keep her back to the marrionettes, and they will perma stun lock her almost, and when they arent you typically can.
i think Shard Spiral from Sellen and the Rock Sling spells are both up there for my favorites. one is an absolute shredder that deals damage as it travels through massive bosses like the final boss, and the other is a janky physical damage range option that enemies mess up dodging making it worth the cast time (in my opinion) i love spellcasting in this game, you have so many options, and while it isnt the optimal way of play, i just enjoy it lol
I mean more just casting in general. Needing to keep your flasks up to just keep doing damage, as I was a pure caster with not great armor and like no weapons. High stat reqs meaning you cant buff vigor or str as much as I like, etc. Plus not all int is busted, it's really just 2 or so combos, and I personally dont find oneshot builds fun, that's more cheesy than optimal imo. My preferred builds are those varitable toolbox ones in games, and I can tell ya right now it was fun but veeeery underpowered :P
Yes my biggest problem as a new player playing a caster is flasks. Inherently you have lower hp and defense than melee builds so you need hp flasks. But you also need more allocated to fp. I watch some builds and guides for areas before I move on and most are melee builds. They can take hits I can't, and they have almost all HP flasks but one. I've had to adapt a bit to a spell blade type build, so I can conserve go on random enemies. I don't skip many enemies in areas like caves and tunnels unless I know I'm at the end. Nothing worse than running from one back into a room or gargoyles I skipped to conserve resources. Fun game tho. Never played souls games. This is a mind blowing intricate game compared to what I'm used to. Loving every one of my thousand deaths so far. I deserve it for thinking I can fight everything I see. Still have learned my lesson. Thank God for soul farms. I don't use them to get ahead, I use them to get the souls I lost back lol
FYI for the viewers, Google the trapped chest to get the meteorite staff right at the start of the game. Next after you get Int up Go find the staff of the lost and off hand it with the Carian Regal Scepter in the main hand. Cast Night spells for max damage. If you are really big brain, Make a 2nd character and grab a 2nd staff of the lost. Get a friend to jump online and trade it to them then they can trade it to your main character. The 30% buff stacks. You can get it to +18 or higher fast by killing all the falling star beast in the game, Which is not that hard. As for summons, the wolfs work for a time, But get the GREATSHIELD SOLDIER ASHES. They Tank for YEARS be sure the level them up.
205muhammadaqil2 Meteorite is the best staff for early game, but the Regal staff has better scaling after... I think +7? At that point it's one of the 2 best staffs in the game. The weakness of Meteorite staff is it just cannot be upgraded.
in liurnia if you shoot down the baloons with the marionettes (near the tower where you find another memory stone) you get golden rune 6 for each of the baloons. Also behind the dragon dude in siofra river there is marikas soreseal (or whatever its called) which is basically radagons soreseal but it boosts your "magic man" stats like mind, int, arcane
1:58 Scholar's shield is op if you are making a melee build. the glintstone spray is pretty good with 80+ int compared to other spells but is weak at the beginning.
with Rykard, an easy strat is getting the mimic tear summons, putting on the talisman that lowers fire damage and just standing right next to him. you can skip most of his attacks that way. phase two he'll jump around a bit, but its still easiest directly next to him
Idc if people use magic as their main attack, I just started a mage character. However, the people that go into pvp and spam about every spell known to man are my exception. If you use it normally idc and don’t get the hate yall get.
Yes you can. I play with a dual wielding Staff mage all the time and use only sorceries for combat. You need to make sure to level your mind and find better staffs and upgrade them for better scaling.
Spamming magic isn't the problem. You are the problem because you don't know how to deal with it... The spamming magic tactic doesn't work on good players... Therefore git gud...
Seriously you asking mage to go fight close combat in pvp? what's the point to be mage tho, don't forget that mage low stat on everything except int and mind.
@@AxlDope you get a 30% damage on everything with the skills which is bigger than most staves damage bonus, also means you get to buff sorceries that dont have a staff that boost their damage
The key is pumping faith to 33 to cast golden vow and Shabriri's woe that buffs all your damage by 15% and 25% respectively. Ritual sword talisman also gives 10% damage boost, but it requires you to be always at full HP. And don't forget about Jellyfish shield. That's when intelligence becomes really OP. I finished my glass nuke build on NG+2 not so long ago (literally 10 vigor), after stacking all possible buffs could deal over 50k damage to Mohg with Comet Azur and instantly kill him (obviously). But gotta say that my personal favorite sorcery is the Rock Blaster, judging by FP consumption and damage output it probably even outshines Comet Azur. Adula's Moonblade and DMGS are too mainstream. Yes, this is my very important nerdy opinion.
unpatched demi human staff scaling is crazy. its spell adjustment dropped by almost 50 points after i downloaded the patch. also spells had huge stagger (specifically sorceries).
“The only way to get to Caelid is to kill Rannala” This is not true, you can skip to Caelid by going to the “Dragon burnt ruins” in Limgrave, then you look for the stairwell leading down into a room, open the chest which is actually a trap, and get taken to a certain mine. From where you spawn in the mine… leave the room and immediately turn left to jump off of the ledge, then from here just try to get away from the bug guys and grab the site of grace. Walk out the other side of the room where the sit of grace is and you’re in Caelid.
great video, and solid editing! side note for the andrew tate quote at 18:35 - it's funny how wrong he is because worms are a vital part of most ecosystems. man really just outed himself as science-illiterate lmaoo
People overhype comet azur. You need to position it well plus set up. Real magic users have like 80 different damage dealing options to choose from and depending on the boss you pack accordingly.
My playthrough as a sorcerer in a nutshell: Stage 1. Spam pebble Stage 2. Spam night comet Stage 3. Spam stars of ruin & Adula's blade with occasional use of comet azur
Bro... the only places you can't go before Godrick (even Morgot) is the capital, the frozen location, the area with giants and the area with the hardest boss. Otherwise, you can literally go to volcano manor without touching a single boss.
@@Chrisfragger1 He applied a self-restriction for this run. He wasn't going to progress to different areas unless he defeated the Shardbearers of his current location.
a very informative and well made guide ... thanks for sharing .... the "Carian Slicer" is the bread and butter sorcery for my magican and with the two in The Academy of Raya Lucaria early to get sorceries buffing talismans Radagon Icon (shortens the casting time of spells) and Graven-School Talisman (raises potency of Sorceries by 4%) it`s quite OP, don`t want to miss it anymore ... it`s effective against nearly all kind of enemies imo and costs only a little FP and I`ve no problems at all to go into melee combat even as a magican, for me melee combat is very entertaining in Elden Ring and sometimes an even safer way to fight against bosses while acting from underneath or behind them and their surprising and fast long reach or aoe attacks can`t hit you in most cases
Love the video. But my man was very wrong about the importance worms play in the world. They arent just food for other creatures. They also help with soil drainage, feed in dead plant debris making the soil more fertile and improve overall soil structure. Without worms, farming would be much more difficult and we would pretty quickly run low on the food we can grow. But otherwise, I'm enjoying the video lol.
Carian grandeur ash of war can be found and used for other weapons besides the knight sword that has it by default. This ash has potential to do 40-50k damage with one fully charged hit.
i just did it for the first time on my 3rd play through. had no clue you could do it before until i randomly seen his summon before going in. 🤔 he was a tank
probably cause it doubles whatever boss your fighting health bar. i almost never take those for that reason. i just tried with the fire giant to see how he did 🤔
@@CalliShae17 Alexander is actually worth it because he doesn't take any fire damage. But yeah usually just having a normal tar tarnished dude makes it harder.
While i completely understand what you're going for and that's a cool idea for a video the quickest way to get op is to go to caelid grab the meteoric staff and rock sling spell because the staff doesn't upgrade it just scales with int you don't need to worry about spending runes or upgrade mats on it and it boosts gravity spells it will carry you all the way until end game when you have collected all the other spells and staffs and can change over to that gear
Probably a funny request, but what is the tune playing while you're fighting 'Astel, Stars of Darkness' around 28:00? I feel like I've heard it before, but cannot place it haha
5:25 it is easy to stagger bosses or anything with a Rock Sling spell. 12:50 You don't need to kill Renalla to get to Caelid, you can go there from the get go 13:13 For the base game, 2 staffs are the best Lusat's Glintstone Staff (with the side effect) thus Carian Regal Scepter is the most practical one and you get it from Renala's remembrance Less blue with a bit of faith sorceries can be also very good. Dark Moon sorcery has also ton of uses.
Int builds are the strongest of all Elden Ring builds once you get the Staff of Loss, especially if you double up on said staff in NG+. The Night comet with double Loss Staff has the highest DPS and is very easy to land due to enemies not dodging it. I kill Malenia first try every time due to chunking her hp down with Night Comet. In NG, main hand the Lusat's staff while off handing the Loss Staff for similar DPS.
efficent mage playthrough: get meteorite staff and rock sling, kill margit, godfrey and rennala. Get comet azur and upgrade carian regal scepter, kill margot, fire giant and get a homing spell like stars of ruin or ancient death rancor to kill malakeith. kill gideon, godfrey and get spiral shard spell thingy for final boss
bruh i been watch elden ring videos for a year and even completed the game myself and I've never seen the dragonkin soldier. this game really is massive
I'm glad you never got the Death's Poker since it would've turned this entire run into a complete joke. Even at low Intelligence, it's still one of if not the best weapons in the game. P.S. If you ever try magic again I recommend the Full Moon Sorceries due to them lowering the enemies' magic damage negation and the Shard Spiral Sorcery which absolutely destroys large bosses and enemies like the Elden Beast or any of the Dragons.
Dammit, I accidentaly missed the magic scorpion charm by completing too much of ranni's questline. Would've boosted ALL magic damage by 12%.

21:10 "I can do that too, Puny Mortal"
“The only way to get to Caelid is to kill Rannala”
This is not true, you can skip to Caelid by going to the “Dragon burnt ruins” in Limgrave, then you look for the stairwell leading down into a room, open the chest which is actually a trap, and get taken to a certain mine. From where you spawn in the mine… leave the room and immediately turn left to jump off of the ledge, then from here just try to get away from the bug guys and grab the site of grace. Walk out the other side of the room where the sit of grace is and you’re in Caelid.
great video, and solid editing!
side note for the andrew tate quote at 18:35 - it's funny how wrong he is because worms are a vital part of most ecosystems. man really just outed himself as science-illiterate lmaoo
Someone got called out and got butthurt 😢
You Taters need to get a life.
he's not wrong they do just provide something for bigger creatures as well as smaller creatures
I loved this as I am a relatively new player and I am now using almost all of these weapons you used
Watching you melt Gideon spammer of all magic was so satisfying
People overhype comet azur. You need to position it well plus set up. Real magic users have like 80 different damage dealing options to choose from and depending on the boss you pack accordingly.
Yeah go get that meteorite of astel and cheese every boss beyond that point.
@@castform57 why so salty lol
14:15
Bro i have NEVER been in that Nox fight before. Didnt even know its there.
I learned a lot about this game watching this.
My playthrough as a sorcerer in a nutshell:
Stage 1. Spam pebble
Stage 2. Spam night comet
Stage 3. Spam stars of ruin & Adula's blade with occasional use of comet azur
Bro... the only places you can't go before Godrick (even Morgot) is the capital, the frozen location, the area with giants and the area with the hardest boss. Otherwise, you can literally go to volcano manor without touching a single boss.
He was saying that he wouldn’t go to the other areas until he killed the main boss of the one before
What is this guy talking about? I can get to the ball farm for EXP in Caelid within 15 minutes of making my character...
@@Chrisfragger1
He applied a self-restriction for this run. He wasn't going to progress to different areas unless he defeated the Shardbearers of his current location.
@@Battleguild Oh... I see. Makes some sense, I guess.
@@Chrisfragger1 or get both medalions to the lift in 15 minutes and be in altus plateau in 20
a very informative and well made guide ... thanks for sharing .... the "Carian Slicer" is the bread and butter sorcery for my magican and with the two in The Academy of Raya Lucaria early to get sorceries buffing talismans Radagon Icon (shortens the casting time of spells) and Graven-School Talisman (raises potency of Sorceries by 4%) it`s quite OP, don`t want to miss it anymore ... it`s effective against nearly all kind of enemies imo and costs only a little FP and I`ve no problems at all to go into melee combat even as a magican, for me melee combat is very entertaining in Elden Ring and sometimes an even safer way to fight against bosses while acting from underneath or behind them and their surprising and fast long reach or aoe attacks can`t hit you in most cases
Subscribed because editing was hilarious and 200 IQ intellect build
The random Tate clips keep activating my fight response
Calamity music came outta nowhere but i fw it, just subbed.
Your edits made the vid totally worth rewatching. Awesome snippets in there....shout out to my worms.
Such an underrated channel you deserve more subs
the exodia transition was just chefs kiss
Love the video. But my man was very wrong about the importance worms play in the world. They arent just food for other creatures. They also help with soil drainage, feed in dead plant debris making the soil more fertile and improve overall soil structure. Without worms, farming would be much more difficult and we would pretty quickly run low on the food we can grow.
But otherwise, I'm enjoying the video lol.
Andrew Tate is wrong about almost everything he says on the internet, so thays pretty par for the course lol.
[3:08] Nice PACKGOD reference.
Also, your spell names were funny as hell
YESSIR WAS SCROLLIN FOR THIS
@@Ravager-u2v🗿🤝🗿
Carian grandeur ash of war can be found and used for other weapons besides the knight sword that has it by default. This ash has potential to do 40-50k damage with one fully charged hit.
Moon Greatsword x Steeple does look sick as hell.
The use of yugioh exodia was an instant subscribe from me. Bravo. You're a great creator.
Oh wow, I didn’t know you could summon Alexander for the Fire Giant fight. You’re the first person I’ve seen do that.
i just did it for the first time on my 3rd play through. had no clue you could do it before until i randomly seen his summon before going in. 🤔 he was a tank
That's up there with summoning Melina for the Morgott fight. I almost never see anyone do that.
probably cause it doubles whatever boss your fighting health bar. i almost never take those for that reason. i just tried with the fire giant to see how he did 🤔
@@CalliShae17 Alexander is actually worth it because he doesn't take any fire damage. But yeah usually just having a normal tar tarnished dude makes it harder.
While i completely understand what you're going for and that's a cool idea for a video the quickest way to get op is to go to caelid grab the meteoric staff and rock sling spell because the staff doesn't upgrade it just scales with int you don't need to worry about spending runes or upgrade mats on it and it boosts gravity spells it will carry you all the way until end game when you have collected all the other spells and staffs and can change over to that gear
Meteorite staff is equivalent to a +14 or +15, that's hardly endgame stats
@@Hirotoro4692 did you even read my entire comment
I love the fact you made al-Buruni man I love this community 😂❤
I've been determined to make a heavy armoured battle mage, It's working out so far
Hammer of Haima let's GOOOOO
Probably a funny request, but what is the tune playing while you're fighting 'Astel, Stars of Darkness' around 28:00? I feel like I've heard it before, but cannot place it haha
Here for this too
Did you find it?
Its part of the calamity mod ost. Dont know the song
Devourer of gods, you're welcome
Devourer of Gods, (nonstop mix)
The calamity songs during the astel fights go so hard
How ive only just found this channel idk but far out was this funny to watch, tike to binge watch more😂
The DoG reference on astel was amazing I’m mad I never saw it myself
Sun Tzu: Knowing is half the battle
Intelligence Mains: Yeah, one half is Int, the other is Mind
Sun Tzu: Thats not what I......*sigh*
I’ll definitely do this run. I haven’t played elden ring in a while now. This looks interesting and there are some items I haven’t gotten
Music and meme editing on point.
I love the music, and your narration, please make more vids with this format and jazz
I knew it, you watched the terraria "How to be OP with ... " series. Nice one dude. Much appreciated.
These are inspired by the "How OP can you make..." series by HappyDays. Unless u meant that
This video gave me happy day vibes. I don't play the game but these videos made me want to try it
You got my sub when you flashed that dark ritual at beginning of vid, mtg ✊
broo the DoG reference. Finally an elden ring player with taste
This man is really Underated, really good video bro
second vid i was watching and i got chills bcs that terraria dog soundtrack. now i’m subbing! great job on the videos!
Me: "I'm an int main."
Them: "Puny little nerd boy! Go do my math homewo-"
Me: *_Dual DMGS_*
Great editing and video hope the algo blesses.
5:25 it is easy to stagger bosses or anything with a Rock Sling spell.
12:50 You don't need to kill Renalla to get to Caelid, you can go there from the get go
13:13 For the base game, 2 staffs are the best Lusat's Glintstone Staff (with the side effect) thus Carian Regal Scepter is the most practical one and you get it from Renala's remembrance
Less blue with a bit of faith sorceries can be also very good. Dark Moon sorcery has also ton of uses.
i like the tate inputs. 10/10 video
That reverse uno card from Astel was dope
Int builds are the strongest of all Elden Ring builds once you get the Staff of Loss, especially if you double up on said staff in NG+. The Night comet with double Loss Staff has the highest DPS and is very easy to land due to enemies not dodging it. I kill Malenia first try every time due to chunking her hp down with Night Comet. In NG, main hand the Lusat's staff while off handing the Loss Staff for similar DPS.
Damn i almost forgot why everyone hates Tate. Didn't take much to remind me
I love how a friggin super monkey is part of Comet Exodia
You wanna stagger bosses with sorceries? Rock Sling with the Meteor Staff
Decimation.
Great video, I’ve been stuck as dex and strength on radagon/EB but magic will save me
2k...? 2K SUBS???? these videos are amazing man keep them coming
😅😅😅 Dude, I paused your video bout 10 minutes in just to let you know that you are hilarious. Love the video my guy...good stuff.
The DoG theme for the Astel fight is so fitting
Glinstone Kris from sellen is way good. has the glinstone dart with a sweet heavy followup and uses little fp
Brother
this vid is so funny these references are so good lol! you're memeing on our asses !
By that dragon knight boss there’s a water fall 4:57. In there is marika’s scarseal
This cannel is literally Happy Days but he makes eldenring videos.
not the tate monologue about the worms😭
efficent mage playthrough: get meteorite staff and rock sling, kill margit, godfrey and rennala. Get comet azur and upgrade carian regal scepter, kill margot, fire giant and get a homing spell like stars of ruin or ancient death rancor to kill malakeith. kill gideon, godfrey and get spiral shard spell thingy for final boss
Holy shit, I was brought to this video by the video you showed at the beginning.
Anyone tell him about the meteor staff and rocksling?
You deserve more subs dude!
“Digger’s staff” 💀
Nice touch getting historical person as character
Loved the style of your edit and video! new fan from brazil ^^
9:05 i see what you did there and i love it
bruh i been watch elden ring videos for a year and even completed the game myself and I've never seen the dragonkin soldier. this game really is massive
I'm glad you never got the Death's Poker since it would've turned this entire run into a complete joke. Even at low Intelligence, it's still one of if not the best weapons in the game.
P.S. If you ever try magic again I recommend the Full Moon Sorceries due to them lowering the enemies' magic damage negation and the Shard Spiral Sorcery which absolutely destroys large bosses and enemies like the Elden Beast or any of the Dragons.
amazing video. very good editing and good use of memes. really funny. and the video itself was really good. i am now a new subscriber
