To me, the most intimidating invader is one who wears the Fashion Charm. It means they are confident enough in their abilities to "waste" a talisman slot, rather than use it to push their build even further beyond.

I honestly think this pure knight build is more terrifying than any mega sorcerer type shenanigan build. Like it’s just a guy in a bucket helmet charging at you with the confidence to kill Gods
Miyamoto Mushashi was a legendary samurai, known for his dual-wielding style of combat and his 61 duels won without a single defeat. He was one of very few men to be called sword saints.
The knight greatswords are great for this build because the moveset actually incorporates real longsword postures and guards. In the full moveset, you can see VomTag, Pflug, Nebenhut, what looks like a low Ochs stance, and then what might be a form of Schlussel.
i did a lot of HEMA training in the Key Guard. i was demonstrating how to use a longsword in say, a small hallway or whatnot :) It resembles a Schlussel guard.
I like the knight simplicity for both pvp and pve. No need to use fancy effects when you can just brute force poise tank through your opponents katana and beat them into the ground with your giant sword
Quality is quite weak in elden ring... Like its usable but only at a stupidly high level they should probably give it a little buff for start of the game. Running around as a pure knight no fancy magic just steel is pretty fun tho no matter the affinity.
@@Voidio2454 with that reasoning RL1 builds are viable even when you don't meet the stat requirements you just have to be good... Quality builds are objectively weak unless you're a high RL with some outliers and even with those you end up having you cut back on other stats like endurance. Alternatively you could go for high RL quality builds but then you won't be finding many players in PVP or invasions. Also if you are investing so many stats into a quality build then there are other builds that will still outperform it because you have so many extra levels to work with.
Yeah... I'm not saying it's like a thing that has to immediately get fixed or the game is unplayable lol. It's just that nobody ends up using quality outside very very very specific circumstances. I mean yeah u can beat the game with nothing but sl1 and fibreglass, I'm just saying that Quality is not usable untill a high level and even then it's not really worth it
I wish there were more ‘knight’ sets in ER. Like in DS3 you had the basic knight set, herald set, nameless knight set, drake knight set, lothric set, etc vs just the knights (which looks way worse in ER) and the vagabond.
ER has a decent amount. We got the Drake Knight, Banished Knight, Crucible Knight, Nights Calvary, Fingerprint Knight, Basic Knight, & the knights of the diff regions (Redmane, Halingtree, Ect).
For those who don't know. Miyamoto Musashi is a kensei (sword saint) from Japan. He is most famous for developing the Niten Ichi Ryu style of swordsmanship, as well as his two books Book of the Five Rings and Way of Self Reliance. As he has both movies, comics, and TV shows based on him, go watch.
For Honor Warden build, I made something similar in DS3 and just melted people in early level PvP without twinking my estus. Not my usual playstyle, so was real fun.
@awhellnah__ I don't think you know how twinking works... Twinking would be invading at Limgrave at low levels with max flask upgrades and endgame gear. You can't twink at level 200, he just has a better build, and probably way more PvP experience.
@@rosariocrimson elden ring has downscaling for invasions right? so I think a guy in limgrave just starting out can still whoop ass if he's just good at the game, probably not happening but hey, there's a chance right? lol
@@R3x-8 It's been a long time, but I want to say it was Hard Leather chest, Cathedral Knight helm, can't recall the arms and legs, but probably hard armor. 2 handed Bastard Sord or Claymore (think I mostly used the Claymore, but could swap between them), no offhand. It was a low level build for the Watchdogs area, so ~sl25 with +2 weapons. Just due to level, I'm sure it was raw infusion with points more favoring the general stats, since I don't think a heavy infusion would get that much more damage so early. I can't remember the specifics for the rings, but I do remember they were themed after the perks available to the Warden in For Honor. Sad to say that build was on a laptop that has been basically dead for a few years, but that was the general gist of it.
I have absolutely loved putting together and playing my quality build. But I do think that quality builds don’t feel that rewarding compared to doing a hybrid like INT/DEX, STR/FAI, etc. For how many points you invest, and having no magic whatsoever, I think the Quality Affinity should simply yield higher damage. If DEX has Lightning weapons, STR has fire weapons, Quality should at least have superior physical damage, but usually it doesn’t until you really pump your stats super high. It’s baffling that you can take a lower amount of points (60 points, say) and split them between STR and DEX, and pretty much any weapon will deal less damage on quality affinity than it would if you used Heavy or Keen, and put all those points into the corresponding stat instead of splitting the points. Part of the reason is that quality affinity gives you the biggest hit to base damage. But yeah, investing in two stats like that should give you some substantial reward, and a quality build should have unmatched physical damage on most weapons.
The biggest advantage of quality is allowing you use many more weapons, because you have both the Dex and Str required. That said, Elden Ring features a lot of weapons that beside needing Dex or Str, they also need Faith or Int, which kinda lowers this advantage that quality builds used to have in past games.
@@lordofthecookie8555 True, but most weapons don't have very steep requirements. The Axe of Godrick is the only one that comes to mind that has legitimately steep reqs for both stats. For a STR build, having 18 DEX is enough to use pretty much anything at all that will be good for a STR build. Anything with higher DEX reqs is usually going to be sub-optimal for a STR build anyway. With 18 DEX you can use the Golem Greatbow which is the main reason I level it that high. Otherwise you can comfortably hit like 15-16 and call it a day. So for a Quality Build, being able to get decent damage out of pretty much any weapon is cool, and having the requirements for nearly any basic weapon is cool, but it doesn't feel like a big advantage. Because most weapons don't have very steep requirements, or if they do (Giant Crusher, Hand of Melania) they are usually for single stats only, and only that stat is needed to make the weapon effective, so the quality build is irrelevant. But at least quality builds have some Somber/Special weapons that rely on the equal stat spread, and I've enjoyed all of those.
Since I played Skyrim I developed a deep hatred against wizards so since then in other games my first character in male Knight and created the most efficient to fight/defend against magic
Musashi Miyamoto allegedly forgot his sword on his way to a duel on an isolated piece of land sticking above the water, so while in the boat he carved a sword out of a paddle and then killed the opponent in one blow. He was a ronin (jobless samurai) and he's quite a famous and powerful fighter. I don't know how much famous he was in his lifetime but I think he even had a sparring match with the current shogun at the time (kind of like a warlord, who ruled japan or part of it instead of the emperor). And yes I doubt he had 2 giant european fantasy swords, rivers of blood build would probably fit the nickname.
quality zweihander + cool metal armor was literally my DS3 build. I also used lot of resins and bundles for maximum swag. In ng+ i spiced witt miracles like replenishment, sacred blade or tears of denial.
Spear and shield for me. I can block stuff flying at me (don't know if it can block everything). Or parry stuff. Spear is long reach and can poke people on punish. Have to watch out for other shield and parry bearers. But besides that. Swing away and block anything If you can.
Musashi wielded two katanas. He won his first death duel with a wooden katana. Leading up to his death he wrote the book of five rings. A combat handbook with some of his philosophy and story.
Outside of buff spells like golden vow, fmgs, and/or barrier of gold and the like, I just really enjoy classic big sword heavy armor dude. I think ashes of war kinda dominated the game more than I think is healthy especially in pve but also in pvp with things like rivers of blood being notable examples. It's why my favorite ash of war is cragblade where it enhances the playstyle rather than defining it.
Musashi Myamoto was arguably the greatest swordsman to ever live. He was a writer, ronin, and philosopher. He wrote the book of five rings, won over 60 duels some against multiple opponents. And finally; yes. He developed his own style of swordplay which revolved around, you guessed it, two swords.
@@joeskintone9752due to how softcaps work in this game, you get diminishing returns the more you put in a single stat (in the case of strength and dexterity you’ll get less scaling after 60, so less damage).
@@alomite1902 but still you get some. so as you probably know the game offers a lot of buffs, the obly problem with them - speed of application. Maxing possible ar by stats is necessary if you want proper damage. For example urumi: with 60dex you get like 540ar, 99dex 626. lets add blue dancers charm +15%. 540(621) 626(720) lets add golden wow +7.5% (667)(774) and exalted flesh +20%(800)(928). then add second urumi. You ll get around 910 each, which is finally proper dmg, everything below 850 is garbage, except reduvia.

I always do a pure Strength Knight build, usually some sort of greatsword or Ultra GS with a Kite shield or tower shield, and a full set of knight armour. Demon Souls: Fluted Knight with Bastardsword/Temple Knight with Moonlight GS/Garl Vinland builds DS1: Knight with Claymore/ Berenike Knight/Black Iron Tarkus/Baldur Knight/Elite Knight builds DS2: Syan Knight/Alva Knight/Elite Knight/Heide Knight/Alonne Knight Captain/Drake Knight/Faraam Knight builds DS3: Cathedral Knight/Lothric Knight/Drake Knight/Knight with bastardsword builds Elden Ring: Exiled Knight/Knight with Claymore/Haligtree Knight/Redmane Knight/Leyndell Knight builds
@@ReadyF0RHeady I try to keep them all the same lvl as I'm progressing but favor STR over dex. My main character is 238 in ng+2 with 55 STR 50 dex and 50 arc. My vig is 60, end 40 and mind 30. I've got 22 faith for the cool faith weapons but honestly focusing the physical stats has always given me better results because the ashes of war scale off the weapon damage instead of stat investment
Whenever I play DnD, my characters always end up being close companions with these types of characters. Always forging the strongest bond amongst the other party members. Never understood why though, but it was always a blast to roleplay.
One recommendation I have is the briar greatsword. Surprisingly good roll catching with the ash and it can also come out deceivingly fast after rolling, catch so many people throwing it uncharged after a roll and just casually getting almost a thousand damage.
Fun fact: Rebellion stops being a rebellion the moment everyone rebels, go knight enjoy the sword and shield combo it's not going to hurt you, unless it genuinely handicaps.
14:15 Someone should really tell little Timmy that you don't get to tea bag when you do a 3 on 1 corner gank. It's like doing the pelvic thrust and a victory dance after beating a paraplegic in a foot race.
its because quality is kinda dooke in this game. ngl it kinda sucks but at the same time, its about time. literally everyone can agree that quality builds were just toooo good before
For anyone who wants a better set to use I found that the Loretta chest and pants altered look pretty similar if you ignore the leg thing and for everything else do the same
I love elden ring pvp specifically because the time I invaded killed a summoned person and proceeded to do it two more times after the host resummoned him only to bait him into a crowd of jars and watch him get eaten alive
You are aware that you can turn off the motion control emotes in option right, cause I can't think of any other reason for you to only have two emotes equipped aside from you not knowing?
To me, the most intimidating invader is one who wears the Fashion Charm.
It means they are confident enough in their abilities to "waste" a talisman slot, rather than use it to push their build even further beyond.
I use it on my "stealth" character since it helps hide you in grass if youre too close for the concealing veil to work.
I always use it, even on my Rl1 build, because fashion>function
for straightforward melee builds, there arent that many "must-have" talismans. like sure, you can put on Erdtrees Favor for a few points of HP and stamina, but its probably not gonna make a difference in the result of the invasion most of the time.
Be it invading or be it helping i always use a slot for the fashion talisman.
I used it to show off my 16th century german landsknetch build. It feels strange when i replaced it with another talisman
Every time i see the Zweihänder i think back to the chaos Zweihänder

@@ReadyF0RHeady I try to keep them all the same lvl as I'm progressing but favor STR over dex. My main character is 238 in ng+2 with 55 STR 50 dex and 50 arc. My vig is 60, end 40 and mind 30. I've got 22 faith for the cool faith weapons but honestly focusing the physical stats has always given me better results because the ashes of war scale off the weapon damage instead of stat investment
Dude that cinematic was the reason I got Elden ring
The team at 15:56 felt like watching your own eso knight cutscene. Bro, they felt custom built to murder you.
9:40 was me and the Crucible Knight: I get hit, create space to heal, start heal, and BAM he dashes forward to punish heal. Repeat til' death.
Hell yeah, that cinematic was soo good.
I wanted to play that knight as well.. sadly there was none.
"Who is Musashi?" Truly pure knight moment
The Background music with the Gameplay is Just Sick!
I enjoy the fact you actually show losses as well
You sound like a knight straight out of the Chivalry games, this is fantastic.
Whenever I play DnD, my characters always end up being close companions with these types of characters. Always forging the strongest bond amongst the other party members. Never understood why though, but it was always a blast to roleplay.
One recommendation I have is the briar greatsword. Surprisingly good roll catching with the ash and it can also come out deceivingly fast after rolling, catch so many people throwing it uncharged after a roll and just casually getting almost a thousand damage.
Fun fact: Rebellion stops being a rebellion the moment everyone rebels, go knight enjoy the sword and shield combo it's not going to hurt you, unless it genuinely handicaps.
I love that that Elder Scrolls trailer has become the poster child for the basic human knight class
Musashi Miyamoto was a Japanese swordsman famous for inventing a style of swordfighting that involved dual-wielding.
always fear the man who walks around with a normal sword in a world full of magic
14:15 Someone should really tell little Timmy that you don't get to tea bag when you do a 3 on 1 corner gank.
It's like doing the pelvic thrust and a victory dance after beating a paraplegic in a foot race.
4:48 the dialogue here sounds like a Wheatley speech from Portal 2
3:05 as the mighty black knight would say "it's just a flesh wound"
3:15 they thought they were real slick with that one
What armor pieces is he wearing at 0:01
Bad-ass wizatd robes or some shit idk
Drake warrior questline in dlc dragon area I think.
Igon armour dlc
@@EonsEternitythis video is 10 months old
@GeorgeT0504 yesh its was in the base game in version 1.0 and in the files
Im so used to elden ring's batshit insane build that the pure knight looks like he has been ripped out from a different game.
its because quality is kinda dooke in this game. ngl it kinda sucks but at the same time, its about time. literally everyone can agree that quality builds were just toooo good before
For anyone who wants a better set to use I found that the Loretta chest and pants altered look pretty similar if you ignore the leg thing and for everything else do the same
You made me laugh the whole time. Thanks.😂
16:07 is literally every high level invasion i do😅😂 spam souls the game
Hey, I've summoned Slayer before for Maliketh, Quality guy!
I love elden ring pvp specifically because the time I invaded killed a summoned person and proceeded to do it two more times after the host resummoned him only to bait him into a crowd of jars and watch him get eaten alive
You are aware that you can turn off the motion control emotes in option right, cause I can't think of any other reason for you to only have two emotes equipped aside from you not knowing?
Dude runs off cliff to escape: "it was a calculated risk, but I am bad at math."
