Great ash of war display!! its cool that they brought a good amount of upgraded versions so people can still play their favorite builds without changing too much...
How about a Fire Knight Greatsword build next? This weapon is one of the best new weapons and imo also the best UGS in general. Flame Spear/Skewer on it, Golden Vow/FGMS for buffs and Shard of Alexander, Dragoncrest GS, Two Handed Talisman and one flex for talismans and you can bully most enemies in the DLC
Fuuuucking hell, these look insane. Been holding off on the DLC since Ive been deep in path of exile 3.25. But am looking to decide an ash of war for first playthrough. Holy hell its hard to decide, so many slick sword moves with follow up attacks - those are always my favorite attacks.
Hard to see on a squishier target, but for The Poison Flower Blooms Twice, how significant is the enhanced attack if your target is already poisoned or rotted? I'm guessing that was the final shot, the one that killed him. Really interested in a Scarlet Rot and/or Poison build with this AoW as the closer.
my to-go testing dummy is usually the omen in the capital sewers, I had 40 dex and 80 faith and didn't want to respec but wanted to get a feel for the weapon art, basically the damage on poison affinity of the AoW when they were poisoned was kind of like half a bleed proc, I imagine its stronger if you use the the kindred exultation and shard of alexander
@@mjay6245 Carian Mastery and Rolling Sparks belie their actual power in this video. CM does 91 poise damage and hits like a freight train while Rolling Sparks just wasn't used correctly. Throw the sparks at the ground in front of you and its damage becomes incomparable.
I'm curious to see comparisons or differences between similar ashes in the dlc versus older ashes...for example Divine Beast Frost Stomp vs Hoarfrost stomp...they look the same but obviously there must be some differences. Does one do more damage? more frostbite? more range? More poise damage? What is the difference between the old and the new essentially. Great work as always man, I know you've been hella busy but I think this could be a good comparison video idea down the road.
AOW swift slash looks nasty for like a ninja build Revenges blade Promised consort Lighting speed slash Euporia vortex Blinkbolt twin axe these look promising for builds
Piercing throw getting 90% damage reduce through a shield had me dying imagine that on a untragreat sword with 1500 ar only doin 150 damage on piercing lunge.
A glitched happened to me when I used the dancing sword ash, and only my upper body was moving so it looked like my upperbody was just twisting its self
Ghostflame on ZWH has been such a vibe. Idk how it's doing better ash wise than Death's Poker. But idc, it's been the perfect marriage for my playstyle lol

Gonna be honest, I am dissapointed that the Earthquake Stomp that the Crucible Knights use wasn't in the DLC. I mean even Messmer's soldiers use em.
horah lous earth shaker aow?
@nickcudmore8491 nah, but the thing he does when he lightly steps on the ground and rock spikes pop out.

I'm just saying, the fact that he's at gatefront to test his builds makes me happy. That's the same place i go to test everything 😂😂😂😂
Me too
Man, frenzy users really got shit on with that weapon not being able to hit anything.
I was watching that thinking, "Damn, really gotta be that useless even in a showcase"
That thing is actually broken in pvp
@@KiraYoshikage6how?
The weapon art is a grab on human enemies and I’ve seen it one shot everybody it hits

Important to mention that Aspect of the Crucible: Wings works differently on Twinblades
Was gonna say this
Explain?
@@danipapi8186if you use a Twinblade the weapon will spin when you fly doing extra damage
@@danipapi8186 more spinning

Was so excited when I found Ghostflame Call, but the damage is absolute piss compared to Ghostflame Ignition.
It deals the same damage
@@nickjamez6656 no? It doesn't?

@@Tarnishedrat I tested and they deal the same damage, just magic boost talismans, I put the ash on a flamberge
@@nickjamez6656 this must’ve been patched or something, because it was doing a solid 20% less damage as of 3 days ago, same scadurtree blessing too
Bro grinding like crazy
There a gaming network im sure the work is evenly distributed plus they had the game like a month early
@@JJdaSamuRai I think they just have 3 guys though lol
Took me 3 days to get all ashes all weapons maxed out and all tailsmans not that hard
It's not just one person.
It's their job
Ouch, see the spinning guillotine hurts my back
sad day for ice lightning users
Cold builds did not get any affection this dlc. Still stuck with a big hat and throwing out fire damage to reset frostbite
@@Mosstone I know im sad there was 0 love for anything cold related. Especially the ice lightning stuff since that's my favorite effect in the game. Guess all we can do is pray for their next game to get sum similar.
Why are all the lightning ashes so trash?
I was thinking the same thing
Great ash of war display!! its cool that they brought a good amount of upgraded versions so people can still play their favorite builds without changing too much...
Overhead stance might as well have been called Isshin the Sword Saint's ichimonji double.
it's a technique used in kendo
In the future save yourself time and dont test on enemies with big shields
Best thing about Raging beast that you can input direction of leap, it is very helpful to evade attacks and get free backstab.
it sent me flying into death at shadow keep so many times doe 😅
The Tarnished can now cosplay as Steve Rogers, Falcon, or John Walker with that Shield Strike AoW.
Poison Flower Blooms Twice is clearly inspired by Gai-sensei of Naruto. THE LOTUS OF THE LEAF BLOOMS TWICE! DYNAMIC ENTRY!
Aspect of the crucible: Wings looks so sick with the GUTS greatsword.
Just try it. The way he thrusts it out there one handed is just..anime asf.
🔥🔥🔥
blindspot also has i-frames, definitely better than it seems at first glance
Ya got some audio issues there, my dude. Right before the 5 minute mark.
Its criminal that Horned Warrior Greatsword doesnt have the lightning variant when it just slams down like the carian spell
We went from high fantasy to anime in one dlc
Next game gonna be genshin souls
Lot of good ones for an assassin build
Me, 4 mins in: "damn, that's a lot of new AoWs, I wonder how many more are there..."
*Checks video duration, 15 mins more to go
"damn"
Bro same fucking reaction
You're missing the part where it's 5mins of actual new skills you can use, and 10mins of skills restricted to special weapons lol
That teethed curved sword makes tarnished move like from a horror movie oh god

Savage Lion's Claw is the real deal artorias flip
I didn’t realize how many ashes are in the dlc and they were this bada**!!
the sunflower headbutt looks rad bro
The swift slash of backhand blades seem like blodhound step on steroids
Best thing is destroying L2 spammers in one hit because they think they are good using that ash of war
Sorta, but I think it has less s
Pls, pls, pls. Make Spear of the Impaler build, I'm begging ya
So sad they changed the radahn great sword. Now it's just bad
They clearly put the A team on skills on the B team on spells.
2:30 I can see this getting abused in pvp lol...
I have been here long enough, started my journey 12 years ago with demon s. This DLC has to be the best so far imho.
Where is shirek of sorrow
These are all nuts I can't believe how much they have cranked all the news ashes of war up to. They're all way better than the base game.
As always its the same poor godrick soldier 😢
what ash/mod is this?!
The LIGHTSPEED slash for me it’s different, some light beam comes from the sky not from the ground
Noticed the same thing too, wondering why
I wish poison flower blooms twice were an early game AoW, this open up so much possibilities for posion builds
Praying it stays up this time 😭
The amount of effort you guys put into these videos are professional grade. Thanks for giving me an idea of how to diversify my build even further.
this outro music aint it

Golden crux is kinda like a hit grab on player like enemies but just a hit on normal enemies for some reason
Good to see we finally got storm caller version with more range and stagger, also I love blinkbolt ash of war it's sick
Im geniunely disappointed we didn't get the crucible frog tongue attack. Goodbye frog builds and tongue only runs...
Someone get this man and his team a great meal, a nice bed and any other comforts they may need, the grind has been insane! Much appreciated!

I love it how the DLC just straight up turned elden ring into mortal combat. These ashes are so badass!
You didnt show the crucible aow with twinblades...do you guys even read the descriptions?
5:57 When your God is useless and you start smacking your enemys with his reliquarys istead xD
Is it just me or are they missing Needle Piercer from Leda's sword?
SLEEP BRO
The first ash of war is the most OP thing in the game. Definitely getting nerfed soon
Hopefully just PvP
Why is a slow af slash the "most op thing in the game" lol.

Do u have any whip builds?

What is your character wearing? She’s beautiful. It looks like Chloanne’s clothings from DS2.
for those who are struggling a bit, slap on Savage Lion's Claw and go to work. Sometimes the target lock is wonky on fast enemies
I swear to god the ash of war on the perfumes is bugged af
Deal up to 1200-1400 dmg like wtf
A glitched happened to me when I used the dancing sword ash, and only my upper body was moving so it looked like my upperbody was just twisting its self
I feel bad for this one soldier dude, hes subjected to the most vile tests imaginable by everyone, cursed to be reborn and tortured again

what is your costume?
Sekiro reference skill looks insane and was one of my favorites it's a shame lightning never got a skill like skerwer or spear
That can't be all of them. Only one stance ash for light great swords? No way.
Damn imagine if you could see how these moves actually connect instead of 20mins of enemies blocking everything...
how do i counter swift slash on pvp?
Roll.
Soooo many of these are gonna break pvp:/
Can't break what's already broken
Giant Crusher + Savage Lion's Claw = a Match made in heaven.
Did I miss something, or are there no new bleed based ashes of war that aren’t permanent to a weapon?
Rolling sparks can be aimed at the ground which clumps all the sparks together dealing massive damage
The hand shake ashes are so lackluster. I was expecting a grab or something
Ichimonji triple confirmed Sekiro Shadows Die Thrice confirmed
I love how you were about as successful at hitting things with the scythe as I was
What outfit are you wearing?
did they change light speed slash?
bruh why tf is the frog ability that that one messmer guard guy do not an ash of war
Btw golden crux does impale heads for a special crit attack but only on npc invader style enemies
I've been running Flame Spear on a Knight's Greatsword and is it soo good. Add's B faith scaling
Spinning guillotine is kinda creepy. Can't wait to die to it in pvp.
theres a mistake in the timestamps, switch slash should be called swift slash
5:42 ouch 😂
The Rancor Shot has rapid fire, the demo did not show this.
EPIC outro!
some of these ash of wars have follow ups and work different with other weapons
Yep
Does anyone know what name that black dress? Thankyou
These ashes of war are insane! Fuck i cant wait to use them
Show where to get them? Lol
