@@MattDean-o1t thanks! 🙏 and about maybe 6 weeks ago. It’s been a minute. I think there were some small things changed but weapons haven’t changed in like 2 months.
All solid picks! Your channel cracked Elden Ring open for me and now I’m enjoying all the other Soulsborne games too - so it’s been a real game changer! 31 yr old dad rediscovering video games like I’m a kid again!
One of my Favourite builds is Dragon Builds, not only does it have absolute broken dragon incantations but going arcane/faith would also open place for the lightning incantation, i also love how ridiculous grafted dragon is, for such an early weapon and the fact that is only 1 handed it has absurd poise damage and its charged attacks as so fast, it also fit the theme of a dragon build since it's literally a dragon attached to you
I think a really underrated build is a euporia/blacksteel twinblade jump attack build. You have all the great things about the jump attack builds and you're building up consecutive hits for talismans and luster REALLY fast
Ice Spear works well on the Godskin Peeler. Set to Keen, add electrify armament or bloodflame blame. I really enjoy the moveset and then Ice Spear is the icing on the cake(of death)
Can we see a good warhawk talons build? It feels strong but what do you do? Status / RKR with double hitting R2, dual wield, sword and board poise break?
Best strength or best physical damage? I am a fan of the Occult Giant Crusher with Crag Blade. I put it on my level 200 character with 60/60 str/occult 1050 AR... and always have bleed as a back-up.
One of the best pure strength builds is star fists with cragblade aow, heavy affinity, and the axe talisman. Spam heavy attacks because theyre super fast and youll stance break bosses in a few hits
@Fury_Omega nothing that’ll give you a damage increase for that besides the white mask. You can proc the black dumpling before a fight tho for an extra 10% that stacks with everything. But you’d need 33 faith for howl of Shabriri.
For clarity - you prefer the guardians sword spear over the clayman’s? I believe you mention that during the segment but you show the clayman’s fully upgraded. Thanks
For cold & keen yeah it does more damage. For magic affinity the clayman’s harpoon has good magic scaling for the weight. But overall the swordspear’s base damage is so high it’ll usually do more damage.
@@AverageGamerMattgreat, I really want to try this build and use the right weapon. I’ve been running a blood flame build with double slash. I enjoy it but the stand off from the spear seems worth a try.
Hi Matt hope you had a great time and hoping your hand is getting better, that's some great builds but looking at your blasphemous build I decided to add the sacred relic sword and the talisman of the dread to my build but just an idea. As a thought for another build is the dragon hunter blade, well I've got to be honest I'm struggling I have a level 455 build with 99 vigor 68 mind 98 endurance, 80 strength and dex and 80 faith 21 arcane with the Alex shard axe talisman, rotten wing insignia and the Godfrey icon, my physic is the stonebarbcracked tear and the spiked tear but it's not quite strong enough I feel, it feels like something is missing, and I'm using the maliketh out fit for easy rolling, if any tips would be very much appreciated and many thanks for your time and awesome videos as usual, happy new year too you and hope you have a good one. Ps could you please do some more high level builds please thanks 👍💯
@@CPTpugwash thank you! 🙏 happy new year as well! 🤘 I had the talisman of the dread in the BB build. But you can always add more. For dragon hunter: Godfrey icon, shard, ritual sword. Golden vow, Rakshasa & Howl of Shabriri for most damage.
Shard, Fire scorp & Ritual sword. Flame tear & faith tear. No really good damage boosting armors aside from if you want to proc the black dumpling pre fight.
I don’t think ShardOA boosts euphoria ash so replace that w 2 hand talisman…. Feel like rotten wing would be better than prosthesis. Then I’d go great jar (better armor) and lastly EF+2 or bullgoat
@@willcardell6692 it does boost it. I had a few ppl comment that a while ago & tested it in a video. It was exactly 15% more with it. So I would absolutely equip it with Euporia 💯 Here’s the video: th-cam.com/video/O4sL5q-r7Ks/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6XOg3NhnjyNVt5Rn Still works now! 🤘
@@willcardell6692 Inseperable sword yes! The beam part tho, it doesn’t add to the buff. Sword of darkness it boosts the damage part & the debuff remains the same.
Be sure to sub! 🤘

This is a summary for the year but enjoy! New builds coming up on Wednesday! 🤘
He’s done like 10 videos since the latest patch lol maybe more
@@MattDean-o1t at least 1 a week, occasionally 2 lol cheers.
@@AverageGamerMatt yeah your definitely dedicated which is really commendable! Wasn’t the latest patch about a month ago now or did I miss one?

Nerf it anything people have fun with nerf it!!!

@@musicislife812 deff a good pick. Fun to use too! 🤘
Couldn't agree more with Euporia, especially after the much needed buff! Feel like a true Holy Warrior! 😇💪
For sure, it’s awesome! 🤘
Thanks for all the guides this year!
@@maxwellmclaughlin6538 thank you for tuning in! 🤘 🙏
Thanks again Matt! Exited to see the nightreign coverage when it happens!
@@CrucibleBro can’t wait! 🤘 💯
As always man, great work!

Thank bra I just hopped on the game again after a year and needed this
Awesome, enjoy! 🤘
Love your videos brother. Keep at it.
Thank you! 🙏 🤘

@@RemingtonSteel haha nice! It works with a lot tbh. It’s kinda easy mode lol
Love the vids!
Thank you! 🙏 🤘
A good spectral lance build would be cool. Smithscript talisman and arrows reach
Will look into this! 🤘
What do you think about upgrading a short swor with Craigblade on pure in build?
@@MissionCreep. cragblade is better for bigger weapons imo. It can work tho. Square off is your best bet for poise breaking with a straight sword. ⚔️
@ but have you ever noticed the stance break on a one handed charged shot sword? Just thought it might work.
Can we see a good warhawk talons build? It feels strong but what do you do? Status / RKR with double hitting R2, dual wield, sword and board poise break?
@@swordsman111982 I’ll add it to my list might make my video for Wednesday! 🤘
Great video man looking forward to the content in 2025 could you do a banished knights greatsword build thanks for the content man
@brk9854 thank you! 🙏 I’ll add it to my list 🤘
I did a warped axe build in the past using Flaming Strike. Busted AR when infused with it.
Nice! 🔥
Is the euphoria build the best in the game ?
One of! It’s my favorite. BB and bleed are probably 1 & 2.
@ thx bro love ur content
Huge fan any new videos on the best physical strength builds?
I’m going to do top by damage stat soon but all in one video. In the meantime I recommend GUTS in heavy affinity with lions claw or savage lions claw.

Hey, I want to make build 9 but I don’t have the dlc. Is there any good armour to sub for the rakshasha set?

Does Terra Magica buff weapon skills?? 😢 I’ve been playing an Int build with Dark Moon GS for a while now and never tried this
@@binkyboy8 yep any magic damage! 🤘
@ unreal! Thanks for that
I have a somewhat cool build idea: try to copy the builds of the heros shown in the Elden Ring Nightreign trailer!
@@aftermath5878 I think someone commented that last week. I’ll look into it for sure! 🤘
Do you have a nightrider glaive build?
@@captkalik I should but I’ll also do a new one soon too! 🤘

@ many thanks for your reply awsome 👍💯
Blasp blade build what to use instead of rakshasa armour didnt acces the dlc yet and what to use instead of the talisman that i need dlc for too
Shard, Fire scorp & Ritual sword. Flame tear & faith tear. No really good damage boosting armors aside from if you want to proc the black dumpling pre fight.
all lighting why didnt you use the knight armor set ? or does the rakshasa gives more more damage ?
just wondering whats the best damage
They’re the same damage %. Both around 2% per piece. So either one works.
@ thanks got it
5:51 i like this helicopter build
Me too! Spinning strikes is 🔥
Marika’s Hammer will always be my favorite
Solid choice! 🤘
how do you get two scavenger curved swords?
NG+ or a drop in co op.
Gonna do this next year?
@@RealCobaltCloud at the end of the year 2025 maybe. This was really just to sum up my favorite builds in 2024.
WOOOOOOOOO LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO
🤘 💯
Anvil Hammer carried me through the DLC.
Amazing weapon! 🤘
I don’t think ShardOA boosts euphoria ash so replace that w 2 hand talisman…. Feel like rotten wing would be better than prosthesis. Then I’d go great jar (better armor) and lastly EF+2 or bullgoat

@ do you know if it boosts other holy ashes? Like the sword of dark or inseparable sword?
@@willcardell6692 Inseperable sword yes! The beam part tho, it doesn’t add to the buff. Sword of darkness it boosts the damage part & the debuff remains the same.
The best builds are effective builds that don't rely on spamming an ash of war over and over again.
@@kryptonian5539 tell that to the blasphemous blade..lol we all play how we want to play. That’s what keeps it fun for each of us.
@@AverageGamerMatt Ironically my OG play through was with that weapon. I agree it can be fun. Its def deserves a spot on the list of OP weapons.
Brp how do you have both millicent prosthesis and rotten Windget? O.o
@@Underkillerist NG+. These range from NG+2 to NG+7.
The falx is broken with a good build
For sure! These are just my favorite strong builds from 2024. Cheers.

20 strength and 80 faith 🥴
Depends on the build. If you mean BB the ash is entirely faith. If you’re only using the ash, you don’t need much STR at all.
