Glad you mentioned the rhadon method. It was my go to. If anyone has trouble meeting prerequisites remember you can get 20+ to any stat with flasks, talismans, and headgear. And STR is 50% higher 2 handed. So they're possible for most builds.
For fast farming the Albunarics are the way to go, I personally enjoy my run of the Prayer Room at the Haligtree. Take out the soldiers leading up to the area where the clean rot knights first appear, nets me about 90k runes in a little over a minute. Nowhere near as efficient, but its a lot of fun trying out different buffs and talismans to figure out how to raise your damage enough to one shot the soldiers. You can fight the 2-3 cleanrot knights for more runes, but that brings about risks as they can easily kill you if you aren’t careful.
For mages: rock sling with bird then Switch to terra magica + cannon of haima for albinaurics. Not as fast as sacred relic but does the job well considering the spells are just in liurnia and caelid.
@@elvenring I'm level 400 and my relic sword doesn't have the range at NG +2. It hits enemy's at 2300 damage but doesn't travel across the field as far as your attacks travel. Does anybody know why that is?????
@@lancefloray6930 as far as I know, it's a set distance, though if your theory were true, it would scale from faith, though I didn't have very high faith in this video.
So basically, if you arent postgame, you want to do three farms. Dragon either farm or single kill with gold talisman and fowl foot. Then either barrage bow or starscourge farm.
One thing you missed. If you do 2 Sacred sword shots, it's faster teleporting to the grace than running back. You can open the map right after you fire the second shot and they will be killed while you're selecting the grace. But if you do only 1 shot then benefit of teleporting is minimal.
Yes, teleporting is faster, but it gets rid of any active buffs from consumables, namely the Gold Pickled fowl foot, which you'll definitely want to use.
Vigor is your most important stat, get it to the soft cap of 40 first no matter what. From there, invest the minimum scaling of your weapon and see where that brings you. Most weapons will have scaling on them that shows which stat would boost damage faster, but it wont increase damage nearly as much as upgrading the weapon itself will. Just mind the soft caps where you get diminishing returns, that'll matter more thsn anything. Vigor: 40/60 Mind: 50/60 (but you may want to go lower, no sense in going higher than your flask can recharge Endurance: 15/30/50 The rest are a bit more complex, but I wouldn't go higher than 60 on most builds, on STR builds, you get a 1.5 boost to STR for two-handing the weapon, but it caps at 99 still, so it's pointless to go higher than 66. When in doubt, level vigor
@@elvenring just realized that I forgot to upgrade the weapon lol, i was confused of the lack of damage with my hits. tho my stats is still not that good, i will rely on what u wrote, really appreciate it.
@@elvenring you maybe correct but that farmming method does not bring much result even when killing the birds or wipe the whole squad of bald guys at the same time repeatedly , and from what I have seen from starting NG+ the game gives players more runes to level but it does not mean killing the near by enemies like bird or bald guys will gains more runes btw by using runes glitch I made 14.5 millions runes in 45 minutes of course with the bonuses of gold scarabs and gold fowl foot , it gives me 500k runes in like 45 or 50 seconds
Feel free to be wrong. Your guestimates are not in the same ballpark as each other, as 500k runes in 50 seconds (it takes 70 to do the glitch, never mind the travel time) would net you 27 million runes, making your margin of error 86%. You're getting more runes because of the ~50% increase in base runes from NG, along with the additional 30% you get from the Golden Pickled Fowl foot, not because the method is better.
Now this is the elden ring testing I’m talking about Thanks for figuring this out looks like ill have to start doing 1 swing instead of 2 I wonder if there’s an In-between where you walk up a little further and miss out the first 2 guys but hit more further down the way
Speculating, but I doubt moving up would yield better results, as the time to run is the biggest factor. That said, I believe I was killing 10 out of the 17, so it's possible that there is a sweeter spot.

This is actually a nice video, I like being able to optimize my farming
This was very helpful, thank you!
Great stuff! I've been doing 2 swings this whole time.
Glad this helped!
Use Alexander’s talisman and sacred scorpion one shots even the guard frogs and with golden scarab it’s good
You should shot the bird first for not to wait him come down
Very good sir!
And multiplayer afk farming is definitely the worst!
Agreed! By the time it's better than any conventional farming, you're already at an impractically high level for PVP anyways. Much less PVE.

@@elvenring thanks for responding. I have no idea my faith:80+ dex:80+ str:80+. Definitely a head scratcher for me
Hello, good sir. Thank you for the video, it was greatly helpful.
if you do the barrage version, 29 range on the light bow is optimal
Before I got the Sacred Relic sword I used Mogh's Spear Ash of war & Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike
So basically, if you arent postgame, you want to do three farms. Dragon either farm or single kill with gold talisman and fowl foot. Then either barrage bow or starscourge farm.
If you start spamming the back button when you rest at the site of race you will stand up without the menu showing up
Could you please test if the big dragon farm is worth it?

@@elvenring I thought it only lasts 3 minutes?
Yes, unless you teleport.
The loading times are way to long for me for that 😂
Are you on ng+? Also, can you use the sacred relic sword without doing ng+?
This is without NG+
Just wondering, right after godrick what is the best weapon?
Before Godrick, the Bloodhound fang is the best early game weapon
for killing the bird rocksling works well
Could u help me with the attribute points? i’m level 190, idk how to make full damage from one hit, should i level up more first?

Do this in ng+ you will get the dubble amount of rune.
can you please tell the location
It's right by the Palace Approach Ledge-Road site of grace. I won't spoil how to get there, as finding it is intentionally a challenge.
YASSSS
Woah, love the energy
New game?
Lol just cross bow the bird
just use a macro
On the PS5? Honestly, if you're willing to go that far, you should probably just duplicate...
Glitch farm is much better
It's not. I compared them in a previous video, Glitch farming only yields half of the amount that sacred relic sword does.

What’s the use of runes in this game?
Runes are similar to Souls in Dark Souls, it's the currency you use to level up, upgrade your weapons, and buy items.
LoL I'm level 630 this take forever
Grinding to max level? Good luck!
