Hey all! I hope you're doing well and are having a great weekend - As usual, thank you for watching the video and feel free to let me know what you think of this build! I also hope I made some of you happy by actually showing some DLC fights ;)
Nice video, I have a similar build, I’m just starting with. One thing I’d change is replacing Howl of Shabriri with flame give me strength incantation, as this will boost the Bloodflame incantation without the extra damage taken from Howl of Shabriri.
If I remember correctly HoS still out damages FMGS, despite the fire damage buff from BFB. I’m more interested in using it because of its low faith requirement, as 33 is expensive when you’re limiting yourself to level 150. I’d rather have 60 vig and 25 end than the menial damage buff from HoS
It is messy, but its effectiveness is undeniable. Very good video. Next time (add bloodsucking and healing/stamina or mana regen tear + Melania's great rune) true vampire/lich build
I try not to use great runes in the vids just to show how good the weapon/build is without them but you’re right, if you want to be a true vampire, that would be some great changes to the build for that :)
Thank you! Yeah I always run HoS just because I’m trying to do as much damage as possible - flame grant me strength is also a very good option as it’ll help with stamina regen + fire damage boost! :)
You can do that, but with occult weapons, you can’t apply greases/weapon buffs but obviously you’ll have a much better base bleed value - so if you want to do that, feel free :)
I’m getting 813 AR with a Lightning infusion at 80 dexterity. Only 718 with Keen. And at 40 strength and 60 dexterity I’m at 729 while two handing the weapon. Is there something I’m missing? Is Lightning really inferior here? It gets a C scaling compared the Keens B, but the AR is significantly higher Edit: yes you can’t buff the weapon
Yeah whenever you apply another status to a weapon the AR will always be better - flame art is typically best I believe but Cold, Flame Art, Sacred & lightning all do a similar split as you mentioned - reason why I didn’t do that is because physical damage is transferable against all enemies, so don’t necessarily have to worry about weaknesses, and you can apply the right buffs to the weapon for the respective fight (that you can’t do with the other alterations like lightning) If you don’t care for the extra bleed etc, feel free to change into the various damage types with the weapon art :)
Yeah, it will give more damage - I believe for 3 pieces it boosts the Ash by 11% BUT doesn't effect base damage and doesn't give as much protection - so because we're trading a lot, it is better to have the Rakshasa for the poise and negation :)
IMO, Storm blade performs better on Radahn fight, it's faster and got range. Personally tried blood tax on him and got recked, he has some fast wind ups and blood tax animation is way too long.
I’m trying to make it a quality weapon with the ash of war you said but it doesn’t give me the option, however I do have 99str and 99dex already so could that be why?
You need the whet blade from stormveil castle - it’s behind a fog door that you need stonesword keys to open it with - I would say look up the location as it’s kind of hard to explain in text :)

nice video m8
@@uchihakai2626 thanks Kai - hope you’re doing well :)
Gonna try this build, Cheers @Jazza
:)
awesome intro for updating about the dlc bosses and explaining it love you
No worries - Don't worry, I have 100s of builds to make ;)

Wow! That's an awesome build, and in NG+4? Let me summon you when I get to Radahn at the end of my runs 😊. Good job, great defensive alternative 👍🏿
Thanks dude - You also didn't see the day of attempts trying to no hit them lol - There was a LOT of rage haha
This may be the best version of this build. I tried double slash(good), both the storm ashes(good), but this looks even better
It is messy, but its effectiveness is undeniable.

I honestly think that it's not the build that shred the bosses, but rather your skill.
Would recommend having occult infusion with arc so you can get more bleeds from the ash
But then you can’t use Bloodflame…
@@MaverickJay1977 still better I tested it
Get 105ish bleed with occult and like 95 with quality and blood flame blade. More bleed and don’t have to keep buffing your weapon.
@@benhite9703 dont forget the Fire Damage tho, but i do agree. Its not worth the time and FP cost imo.
Sick build mate 🫡🦊
Thank you bro 🫡
Can you use bloodflameblade with occult affinity
Unfortunately not
This is well-done buddy. I feel that the howl of shabriri offers more firepower for this and any build. 😁
Thank you! Yeah I always run HoS just because I’m trying to do as much damage as possible - flame grant me strength is also a very good option as it’ll help with stamina regen + fire damage boost! :)
Is occult also viable? Just because i'd like to use some dragon incants
You can do that, but with occult weapons, you can’t apply greases/weapon buffs but obviously you’ll have a much better base bleed value - so if you want to do that, feel free :)
Thanks, btw what would you considere the best 5 Dragon incants
@@_deleooo_the breaths are good. Good damage and status
This might be better than the blasphemy blade with less fp use and health regen
No way lol

Like the skyrim music
It's the best ;)
@@tkcjazzaI agree I have like 350hrs in it lol
Needs way more arcane for the blood
Not unless you’re using an occult affinity
Anyone else not getting the option to do quality affinity with blood tax, in spite of having the ability on most weapons?
Me to
You are missing the Iron Whetblade
@@JoaoSilva-ox2ce I have it, and can apply the affinity to other weapons but not this one
Same here
What about a level 500 build
Wouldn't Ansbachs armor give more of a boost instead of Rakshasas?
maybe for ng+ ? 🤔
Yeah, it will give more damage - I believe for 3 pieces it boosts the Ash by 11% BUT doesn't effect base damage and doesn't give as much protection - so because we're trading a lot, it is better to have the Rakshasa for the poise and negation :)
Did you pick the samurai class?
Yes he did
Why don't you use blood sucking tear if the weapon heals you?
Because there’s some points, especially in NG+, where you are on the brink of death trading hits, so using blood sucking tear will kill you
IMO, Storm blade performs better on Radahn fight, it's faster and got range. Personally tried blood tax on him and got recked, he has some fast wind ups and blood tax animation is way too long.
Yeah, blood tax does require near perfect timing in that fight - not really used storm blade much but sounds like I need to give it another go! :)
Thank you maybe i can finally defeat dlc radahn
Let me know how you get on :)
How do I make my blood tax into a quality because it doesn’t show for me
Same
I’m trying to make it a quality weapon with the ash of war you said but it doesn’t give me the option, however I do have 99str and 99dex already so could that be why?

What NG is this and u think it’ll work ng7?
I did say - it’s NG+4
It works in ng+7, i run a similiar build atm (only with a bleed katana and repeating strikes)
Quality does not show up for me
Yo can you do the wall build? :D
I certainly can - I have a tank build on the channel already but I will make a 2.0 in the future ;)
a full bleed build would be great. is there one that is as strong as the old jump & win blood build with 2 swords? (feather armor, white mask etc.)
dual scavenger curved sword is for you
Flax is pretty good I hear
Under 1 minute gang
33 faith?
For Howl of Shabriri
I'm starting a new platinum run on ps4, whole new game play style this time and this looks super fun
It is really fun to use, just need to get the timings down and you're good to go! GL with the platinum run and let us know how you get on!
@@tkcjazza legend says he is still in this run
WHY DONT YOU DO A LIVE STREAM 😡DONT MAKE ME ANGRY😂
Soon man - sorry, I have other things going on at the moment :)
