Beautifully played. The R2 is so cool, I wish more than a single weapon had it. Also the little time-saving edits can be hilarious, 6:30 feels so much more violent than a regular crit
Thank you! :) I did this weapon test because I genuinely forgot it existed until a frequent viewer notified me of it. Yeah, the R2 is great and it's a shame we didn't get a regular weapon in the DLC with that attack; like how Messmer Soldier's Spear uses the Treespear's two-hit R2s. Also yeah, a lot of these "dead air" moments add up and blow up the video length so ripostes were one such moments that felt fine to cut short. It was only after I started doing it that I noticed how visceral they can look when it's done quicker, haha.
It's in one of the towers near the start of Elphael, the second-half of Miquella's Haligtree. As for directions: - Start from the Prayer Room site of grace and head right (north-east) towards the city. - Head down the path, you will find two entrances to your left. - Head into the second entrance, up the long flight of stairs inside, then head out right at the top of said stairs. - Jump onto the branch directly in front of you and follow it up (south). - Jump down onto the path directly (east) that leads to a bell tower directly to you. - If you haven't been here before, there will be an item laying on the ground. - Congrats, you found the Miquellan Knight's Sword! Apologies for the late response, I hope that helps, and thank you for the compliment! :)
As mentioned above, you can only get the Haligtree Crest Greatshield from a singular specific enemy in the Haligtree and the drop-rate isn't the best. If you don't care much for fashion and are just looking for a decent alternative - before the Haligtree - that doesn't require a lot of farming, the Golden Greatshield from the Leyndell Knight (that wield them) would do just as well. Require 34 Strength, has 68% Holy negation and 78 Guard Boost; one point below HCGS's 79 GB. If you're not keen on farming, the Black Steel Greatshield is a guaranteed drop from the DLC and is an excellent choice too. Requires 35 STR, has 84% Holy neg and 74 Guard Boost. Hope that helps. :)

Damm, this weapon is better than what I was expecting, I'll have to give it a try.
Was it just me or are the boss theme changed for the Elden Beast? Awesome vid btw
Yup, I changed it to Rellana's theme because I've never been a fan of Elden Beast's. Thanks for the compliment! :)
fire thumbnail!
Where do you get this sword? Also amazing gameplay

What’s the shield you’re using and the attributes needed?
It's the Haligtree Crest Greatshield; 36 STR
It’s only dropped by one enemy in the haligtree, better off looking it up
