I was not aware of that fact until she proceeded to tell me 138 times.... she couldn't tell me the 139th time, because I limped my way to the v- I mean destroyed her so quickly, you would've thought she was one of Hillary Clintons E-mails.... 😂
Dual bleed curved swords and twin blades hit twice in the jump attack so 4 times when dual weilding, is probably faster bleed build up than Reduvia, and then use black feather and claw talisman for bonus damage
That used to be insane like a year ago, but they heavily nerfed powerstance bleed buildup. It's still pretty good with double sepuku but not as good as the reduvia probably
@@zhongli5689 just saying not as op as it used to be, it's also the Ng +7 build I use but tbh the reduvia is better ever so slightly cause of the range I'd say
If you don't want to take time learning how to counter waterfowl dance, if you throw a freeze pot at her it knocks her out of the air and the waterfowl animation but you have to hit her before she starts it.
Hey, big fan and watcher of your channel, i just wanted to say that its awesome when you put on screen what certain weapons/items do for those of us who arent crazy elden ring nerds 😂, its a small detail but it makes you one of my fave elden ring youtubers to watch
The fight with Malenia really showcases why Rivers Of Blood was so powerfull... the first time i defeated Malenia, was thanks to Rivers Of Blood, and she didnt do anything... just spamming Corpse Piler did so much damage, bleed and poise damage, that she couldnt do any of her skills
It's a nice Reduvia run but it's far from max bleed Even if you want blood blade - occult nagakiba (more damage and almost guaranteed hit with the blade) or bleed twiblade (around 50 more bleed) would be stronger. At least in terms of bleed. Outside of it 3 mohgs with base stats ~800 bleed. Blood blade buffed claws. And infamous jumping attacks with twinblades
@@jwcurry83 It's one of the best non-specialized weapons in the game. In other words you won't get as much dps or stance damage as with some other builds but at the same time you will never feel underpowered. It's also really easy to use. It's a perfect choice for the first playthrough Few things to note - Use bleed greases or even better - blood flame blade. Fang deals more damage on jumping attacks - so use them as much as you can (you can boost them with 2 items). Its ash of war has s so you can dodge some attacks. Also game is really long and there are a lot of materials after mid game. So consider trying other weapons as well
Power stance Bandit curved swords with bleed affinity and high dex and arcane is the ultimate max bleed build especially with jumping power stance attacks
Not making use of other really good bleed weapons like Mohgwyn's Sacred Spear and Eleonora's Poleblade was honestly a pretty big missed opportunity, but other than that, it wasn't a bad run.
After hearing what you said about the Great Stars, I knew what I was in for. Try the Great Stars with a strength build using Bloodflame Blade and heavy affinity Prelate's Charge. You're welcome.
Watched your max defense run last night but forgot to subbed. Luckily this popped up on my feed this morning and I could rectify that. Nice content, I love that the runs are average joe replicatable and in general it's just entertaining. Good stuff :)
Always happy to hear from you in the comments. Thanks for always watching! Also this video came out 12 hours earlier than I thought I scheduled it lol I must have picked 12 am not 12 pm so I was shocked to see it live already
hey maybe for Malenia you put the bloodhounds step ash of war on a weapon so that when she does the waterfowl dance you can just use the i frames to get out, that worked for me anyway.
Good video. Subscribed. I have blood tax ash of war on that god skin fat guy weapon and it does 107 bleed build up. And my baseline arcane is below 40.
@4:20 Elemer of the Briar was an ABSOLUTE PAIN IN THE ASS. I had to adapt and use a shield (I was just using a 2H Claymore) to block those damn phantom blades that extended across the room. Worked out and was able to finally defeat him.
Dude ur videos are really fun and entertaining to watch, you should have at least about 5mil subs, the world is just not fair, i hope now with the dlc u make more vids and get a lot more subs, great vid man
One of my favorite builds is actually dual Great stars with ice affinity and cragblade on the left hand and wild strikes on the right hand. Opponents don’t stand a chance.
My first playthrough I went for a similiar build with Misericorde and Reduvia. I found the Reduvia ashes of war strong but kinda boring. Late game I switched to a hibrid with Swarm of Flies and Bloodboon and it was a lot cooler to play. Swarm of Flies works best if cast in succession, so it stops the enemies from charging and triggers a bleed before you engage.
It'd be cool to see you try and do a melee sorcery only run! You can use the carian sorceries that summon melee weapons as a bit of a "ranged option" of melee weapons.
So good to see bleed is still OP. If From kill it like they did Miracles in DS2 then that pretty much will kill my passion as being the best damn Blood Knight out there.
Mimic tear is just so busted, im now 150 hours into my first playthrough, but about like 20 hours in i accidentally went straight in and killed the mimic tear, completely forgot that i had gotten ashes from it, and now only after making it to the giants mountain tops did i check and notice that it was summoned using hp, i put it on, and was immediately blessed with all the frostbite to ever exist. (Using +20 guts greatsword with cold Imbued
Try dual welding twinblades. Use both the standard Twinblade and ELEONORA'S POLEBLADE. Put Sepuku on the Twinblade and use it in your right hand. ELEONORA'S POLEBLADE will be in your left hand. It's a pretty fun build with good bleed
Yeah lots of people are saying dual Godskin peelers but that requires NG+ This sounds like it would be really good damage as well and could be used on a fresh character
@@bryceinator13 use the weapon "antspur rapier" and put the "poisonous mist" ash of war on it. antspur rapier does innate scarlet rot, and with poisonous mist you can do poison damage aswell. if you want, you can use an "estoc" with the cold infusion on your left hand, with a bleed affinity on the right hand antspur rapier. 4 elements.
@kianpierce8847 you can also get poisonous mist with blood affinity on it, or for example seppuku with poison affinity. This will cause the Antspur Rapier to have scarlet rot, poison and blood on 1 weapon
Imagine being a huge demigod holding the stars in the sky and former general of a great army only to fight a naked blue man with a tiny knife, bleedout and die in 5 seconds
That sounds perfectly logical.
Thus the power of grace

Lesser known fact: Her name is Malenia, Blade of Miquella. And she has never known defeat.

She will soon
Beat her last with dagger build too easy!

It's still op even tho the quad hit attacks only do 40% of the base bleed buildup per hit.
@@artezacno the bleed build up on gargoyles twin blades is still better than reduvia, it’s shitty range does not make it better

i literally asked for this in the max frost video, great video 👍
AND this is bleed after the nerfs. Bleed used to be straight broken
Seppuku
Yeah, anything is ridiculously OP if you max everything before the first boss...
@@ketsi3079fair point however the blood buildup hit would one shot everyone both pve and pvp in the first launch months
@@ketsi3079 I mean RoB used to be genuinely broken even in lategame and NG+s. Same with Eleonor's poleblade
I miss when bleed had op stagger on bosses
You're underrated af dude! The build is unique in its own sense with the variations and it's really entertaining to watch, I subscribed!

Been using the bleed nagikiba build and it got me dlc ready for the dlc in like 3 days
doing a frost/bleed with the nagakiba cleared limgrave,liurnia,caelid and altus of bosses in like 5 hours lmfao shit is crazy strong
Sometimes I’m shocked by how crazy difficult crucible knights and tree sentinels can be vs an actual boss lol. I love this game so much.
The fight with Malenia really showcases why Rivers Of Blood was so powerfull... the first time i defeated Malenia, was thanks to Rivers Of Blood, and she didnt do anything... just spamming Corpse Piler did so much damage, bleed and poise damage, that she couldnt do any of her skills

Briar's Armor Set proc bleed if you use "Bloodflame Weapon", not bleed weapon! Amazing video anyway.
Oh that’s awesome! Thanks for the tip hopefully people see this in the comments.
i very rarely watch long videos but you made it so much fun that i didn’t realize it’s long until the video ended, thank you
Power stance Bandit curved swords with bleed affinity and high dex and arcane is the ultimate max bleed build especially with jumping power stance attacks
4:03 - unintuitively, you can avoid the grab attack by jumping.
Fighting game moment
have you already done a "only items from dungeons/hero's graves/underground areas/caves" run? bc that would be hella entertaining
11:15 Rennala is bout to take some bloody backshots
Not making use of other really good bleed weapons like Mohgwyn's Sacred Spear and Eleonora's Poleblade was honestly a pretty big missed opportunity, but other than that, it wasn't a bad run.
Bro missed double seppuku nagakiba or godskin peeler💀
Using Eleanor’s pole blade currently and it’s a beast!!!
@@jonathancarroll9463 there are better choices, as Eleonora cannot be imbued with any ash of war to maximize bleed proc.
@@jonathancarroll9463 so fun too. moveset is so cool. using it and reduvia right now and loving it.
Bloodflame blade on a grave scythe using spinnings strikes does more bleed while not having to upgrade the scythe
Trying this build now and is super great thanks

Kill Patches? Gladly, that soul pushed me over a cliff years ago and I still have not gotten over it.
Wouldn't duel scavenger swords or godskin peelers inflict more bleed and have more dps??
Mohg’s spear too
Reduvia is good against enemies with weak spots (dragon's head ect.) but bleed curved swords are generally better.
the video I didn't know I needed
