How you liking it? They look really fun and the ele poleblade with bloodblade dance looks interesting as well.

Either one of those cheesy rivers of blood build with dex/arcane/vigor or I will go to my original thought which was to do a warrior strength/endurance/vigor.

I have been watching videos on both and I am leaning more towards the samurai kind of build cause it looks pretty fun and different. Then if I decide to do a 3rd or NG+ on the samurai I could always switch to the warrior build probably.

What do you guys have most fun playing as? I really enjoy mage but I want to do more close combat as I feel like I had the easy way out at times do to some spells being super strong.
Rivers of Blood is like actual cheese, the build I run at level 120 hits for about 2.4K with 1 combo obliterating almost any enemy that can suffer from blood loss.


Did you get someone to drop it or did you use uchi up until you got it?


Got one myself and got the other from a drop.

Also just updated the thread with my whole PvP build.


Looks good! I think I will definitely try to wrap my mage play-through up this week so I can start on one myself. Drop me rivers of blood?

pole blade is very strong one of the best arcane weapons I believe gotta get the mohgwyn sacred then get it to +10 got my arcane to the soft cap, got the lord of blood Talisman so should hit hard with aoe from the special attack from the spear

I've been watching all of Jev's elden ring videos and he has been using that. Looks deadly and I don't even think his arcane is very high lol.

Does power stancing rivers of blood work well? Rocking 2 uchi's with steppoku on bosses and single handing rivers of blood for non bosses with an arcane build atm. This build feels quite cheesy but it also has its downfalls. This is my second play through. I'm currently leveling godskin peelers to try instead of uchis.

On my first play through I did a quality build with the bloodhounds fang, it was pretty good too, never ran into an enemy it didn't work on.

Beat the game yesterday, I didn't do a whole lot of the side stuff aside from a few questlines. I know I still can but I think I am going to do it on the new build I started last night.



Going for a strength/endurance/vigor build. Just big ol weapons although I will probably end up using the greatsword for awhile since it seems to be best for starting out.

This playthrough I will definitely run through all the bosses now that I have a better idea of whats going on. I played about an hour or so last night on this new build and it feels like a brand new game since I am doing melee only and I don't know where any of the good items are for my build. Super fun and excited to scream at more bosses that will be much faster than I.

Any suggestions on items I can grab at the beginning? So far I have the greatsword, and war cry ash of war as it seems to be pretty good.
