Embrace the Shadows: The Ultimate Shadow Mage Build in Elden Ring

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 มิ.ย. 2024
  • Welcome to my shadow mage build guide, where we'll explore a high-intelligence build that takes advantage of Night Sorceries like Unseen Form, Eternal Darkness, Terra Magica, and Ranni's Dark Moon to move undetected and deal devastating damage to your enemies from afar with spells like Night Comet. Alternatively, you can deliver lethal backstabs or engage in close combat using the Moonveil Katana.
    The best thing about this build is that you can start creating it from the early game as all the essential weapons and sorceries are accessible right from the start, offering a great deal of freedom and exploration. Additionally, Assassin's Gambit Ash of War provides similar stealth effects by muffling your footsteps and partially making you invisible for 30 seconds.
    Join me on this exciting journey to create the ultimate shadow mage build and dominate the world of Elden Ring!

      That's an easy fix my friend. Pump up your endurance a bit so you can wear heavy armor. 33 END should be enough. Radahn's armor is easy to get. Eventually you want the Solitude set(DLC). Replace Cerulean Hidden Tear with Opaline Hard Tear. Equip Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman. Then buy Boiled Prawn from Blackguard. With all that plus Golden Vow AoW you should be at 70% phys dmg negation. Also, find a bunch of Scadutree Fragments. They are the DLC progression system and will greatly buff offense and defense.

      @@KimoChaser I'll try to keep it "fairly" brief, you're the expert and I'm sure can fill in the blanks Kimo.
      Great Mace w/Brag Roar (Blood affinity) + Highland Axe w/Golden Vow
      Serpent Bow w/Serpent Arrows + Dragon Seal
      Talismans: Lord of Blood, Axe Tali, Roar Med. (which now buffs dragon breathes if you wanted) >> FLEX SPOT Talisman: Dragoncrest, Dagger Tali, Assassin's Crimson Dagger, Taker's Cameo, R. Soreseal(early game)
      Spirit Ash: Stormhawk Deenh (physical + poise damage + 20%, stamina recovery boost > *this overrides golden vow AOW)
      Phy. Flask: Spiked Cracked & Stonebarb
      How I played this one was starting as a strength build, keeping affinities to Heavy and Fire and working my way up to what you feel comfortable with for Vigor and then getting strength to 54 (80 two handed w/Great Mace) and then after that pumping Arcane to 45+ and switching to blood affinity along the way. I also felt like Flame, Grant me Stength was worth the low faith investment too.
      Stat spread for around 150-160 was this, give or take a couple stats.
      Vigor 55, Mind 9 (base hero), Endurance 41 (allows 51-61 poise armor + bow/etc), Strength 54, Dex 15 ( I raise to 15 to allow serpent bow, marais executioners sword, gargoyle twinblade w/impaling thrust, great stars w/wild strikes and beastman curved swords, variety mostly), Intelligence 7 (hero base), Faith 15, Arcane 45
      For spells/incants I ran flame, grant me strength - flame, cleanse me - beastial vitality - swarm of flies - dragonice & rotten breathe. But I rarely used anything other than the first three, the heart of the build is melee and I don't want to be buffing all the time.
      Something to note and something I personally hadn't played around with is the strength of arcane scaling on throwing pots. Also the power of freeze pots on bosses, completely got me away from dragonice.
      Anyways Kimo, that was longer than expected but this is just a stance breaking machine. The basic moveset of the great hammer I love, I know some don't but I think it's great > Running R2 to R1 to R2 to Charged R2 is a seamless combo. When you get the spirit ash and flask bumping up your brag roar you can stance break trolls in 1 charged R2 > I'm not exatly sure on the numbers but it's likely somewhere around 60, you can usually bring down dragons in 2 charged R2s or 1 and mix of a follow up R2 + jumping attack. The charged R2s also seem to do 2-3x as much status effects so you are just doing all sorts of damage along the way and the AOW like charges into people and pushes them along with you so you're not getting hit.
      If you have any quesitons let me know but it's been one of the most solid builds I've experimented with using weapons and AOWs I hadn't previously touched. I did a solid NG7 run with it on a higher character getting to that 80 STR/80 ARC and it just destroyed.

    First off, nice build and guide.
    Just a small correction needed...on the stats review it shows confessor in the top left, but you mentioned using an astrologer before that. I can tell by the stats you probably used astrologer bc confessor has like 14 faith (don't quote me on that but it is high). Sorry if this was mentioned in another comment but i didn't see one mentioning it.
    Good luck and thanks for the guide.

      When it comes to PvP, I might not be the expert to consult, but I can tell you that the combination of the Unseen Blade and whips like Urumi with the Royal Knight's Resolve Ash of War can be quite disorienting for opponents. This offers high damage output and the moveset provides excellent reach, especially with the heavy R2 attack. It's definitely worth giving it a try if you want to catch your opponents off guard.

It's important to note that Moonveil, Darkmoon Greatsword, and Wing of Astel are all viable options depending on one's preferred playstyle and stat requirements. Moonveil is particularly accessible early on, whereas Darkmoon Greatsword requires completing Ranni's questline. This is the main reason why I personally chose Moonveil over other options like Darkmoon Greatsword.

      If you are curious if Night Comet is worth it or not, you can see it for yourself throughout the video. This is the most powerful comet in the entire game; perhaps second only to Comet Azur in terms of damage. As for the attack power on the weapon, I already explained that the weapon damage scales with both Dexterity and Intelligence but the weapons Ash of War "Transient Moonlight" scales only with Intelligence. So while going heavy on Intelligence might harm the weapon's Attack Damage, it significantly boosts the weapon's skill and Sorceries damage.
