Note: Don't forget to 2-hand your weapon if needed before applying cragblade, or it won't work. I forgot to do that at 4:30, so cragblade didn't actually get applied, since I have to 2-hand to meet the minimum strength requirements for that weapon.
Thank you for straight up listing the items instead of making the viewer pause over and over as you go through each item in the menu like most people do.
Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it! I know I didn't always list each item for each boss fight, but when the loadouts are nearly the same I didn't want to bore people.
So authentic and immersive,stunning ambiance and great narration . Really enjoyed watching the video and will definitely try this build. Hope to see more content from you. Greetings from the Netherlands
dancing lion - worst hit box of any fromSofrware boss. damn i did not know that endure did that, nice build. i beat the game using night comet , most underated spell. the enemy's can't see it !! good video. damn and i was waiting so see if u would use endure on the opening of radahn's . damn i need to replay the dlc now.
Yeah and the camera can be pretty iffy with that boss. I haven't used night comet myself, but I've heard it's really good. Thanks so much for watching!
Nice video! Stance breaking is such a satisfying playstyle. Btw, you can get an ancient dragon smithing stone from the top of the tower of suppression if you don't want to deal with the forges.
Brilliant, just like your previous videos. Talking of which, I followed your 2 hour DLC prep and it worked great! Only difference was I started as a wretch because of the even stat spread.
Awesome, glad the other video worked for you. And yeah, you're right the wretch gives a lot of versatility for respec-ing to different builds. Thanks so much for the feedback and encouragement!
Excellent video as usual. And I honestly had a harder time with the Great Jar Talisman than possibly even Consort Radahn; don't think I could've obtained it without the cheese method.
@@SoulObsessionGamesYeah, I probably had the wrong build. It took me about 10 days to no-hit Radahn, but I got it done (somehow)! By the way, is your channel's name a reference to Nation of Language or is that just a coincidence?
@@mf1932 Well done getting the no-hit on Radahn! There's no special reference in the channel name, it just refers to my obsession with souls games, and a play on the expression "sole obsession"
here's a tip for anyone that want to optimize their stamina before a riposte, especially with big weapons. When you notice the stance break crouch this will immediately make your stamina regen very useful especially if you did a charge R2 with barely any stamina left
@@SoulObsessionGames but Consort is impossible for me at this vigor level. every shot he does one-shots me. i need to learn how to play unlocked in order to dodge better
@2:15 it’s still feasible to get Black WhetBlade without defeating Radahn. The “Wrong Warp” method ( _ELDEN RING | NOKRON, ETERNAL CITY WRONG WARP | WITHOUT FIGHTING RADAHN | After Patch 1.09_ ) still works for me (Patch 1.13 PS5)
@@SoulObsessionGames you are right Radahn must be defeated for accessing DLC. Just saying that Black WhetBlade can be obtained b4 defeating Radahn, perhaps getting a bit stronger a bit earlier.
Thanks so much! And I appreciate the suggestion. I know it doesn't exactly count, but I did respec into a dragon great katana build for the last boss of this run (Bayle the Dread).
@@SoulObsessionGames you said it was “good.” I said it’s better than good. It’s the best Great Hammer in the game. “Just in case the BFA gets nerfed, again.” It’s ur video bro, not mine.
@@skipjacks85 Saying something is good does not mean it isn't excellent too, the terms are not mutually exclusive. Yes, it could be the best greathammer in the game, that's why it's the only greathammer I used. But in the context of this run, you're generally better off using the bloodfiends arm or starfist depending on the situation, which is why I wasn't heaping praise on it compared to the other weapons I'm using. The statement you quoted did not say that the nerf was significant. You're assuming meanings that aren't there. I'm giving alternatives IN CASE the bloodfiends arm gets nerfed AGAIN, implying that the current nerf is not significant enough to warrant using a different weapon.
@@SoulObsessionGames agreed. It’s def better to use the BFA for this build. It’s truly a broken weapon that trivializes the game. It’s the best bleed wep, charged heavy wep, poise damage wep & guard counter wep. Was just saying the GS is still an excellent weapon and shouldn’t be slept on because of BFA. Now if u powerstance the Great Stars into a jump attack build both w/ Cragblade set to bleed affinity there might be an argument to be made. Weight units are identical.

It might take an additional charged heavy to get each stagger, but you should be able to use the same basic approach. I haven't tried it on NG+2 myself, so let me know how it goes. The damage output of DLC bosses at higher NG cycles can be pretty brutal. But hopefully your stats are quite a bit higher than mine, so I'd recommend stronger armor like the tree sentinel set, and adding some buffs like golden vow. Pump arcane to 80 and maybe level some stength to help with damage output. Fortunately with a blood infused bloodfiends arm, you should still get a decent amount of bleed procs, and percentage-based damage is great for coping with higher boss healthpools. Good luck!
Any recommendations for being summoned for DLC final boss? Charged attacks for several times, seems not staggerable. Or to use completely different builds instead. I tried Blood Antspur Rapier & Fingerprint GreatShield, I was very fine, but too slow that most hosts died b4 boss unless the host using similar poking behind Fingerprint GS. I was helped by other summoned players, would like to help others who struggle when soloing.
Depends on which NG cycle, if the host is NG+2 or something the boss won't stagger as easily. Bloodfiend's arm should still be one of the strongest weapons when blood infused and using charged heavies. But there are other OP setups. You could try a great katana with repeating thrust like this: th-cam.com/video/niAyH9hwst8/w-d-xo.html
@@SoulObsessionGames I tried Great Katana with Repeating Thrust AoW, I believe it’s very good for most content. But not so good for the final DLC boss. I’m not a perfect dodger, poking behind GreatShield seems more reliable for me
It would still be a strong build if you keep leveling up. Use stronger armor like tree sentinel set and more damage negation like golden vow incantation. But it would take more hits to get each stagger. I'm not sure if the bosses would deal too much damage for endure to be viable - if so, it might be better to use cragblade and dodge more.

Good video(again) i will buy the dlc and you are the reason bro 🎉
Wow thanks, hope you enjoy the DLC!
after struggling with rellana on my first playthrough I went back on another character with bloodfiend's arm and the difference was insane
Yeah, you're right. Rellana was difficult for me too on my first playthrough, but bonking made her a pushover.
Looks like a fun build . I got to Radahn using a flame strike hook claw build but now im going on a scudutree fragment scavenger hunt
Nice, that sounds like a good setup
Nice work
Thanks for watching!
Excellent work!
Appreciate it!
Great job
Fantastic series of videos
Glad you like the series, thanks so much for watching!
awesome example *subbed, keep it up

good stuff as always

So informative! Another great video
Thanks so much!
i killed fire giant at level 40. And entered DLC at level 60. Vigor level 30. very challenging but Scadutree frags made it tolerable.
Nice going! Yeah the scadfrags do help, but what you're doing still takes good skill
@SoulObsessionGames trying to see if I can no summons kill all bosses.
I tried...and failed. MESSMER broke me.
Still have to do the consort fight.

Great.👍
We have almost the same build. The difference is I use giant crusher and lion's claw with the same result.
That's a good combo!
No, the Great Stars is an excellent weapon. It’s just the Bloodfiend’s Arm is absolutely broken.

Bloodfiend's arm was weaken in the last few game version updates....I wonder if it still works
It hasn't been nerfed any further since I recorded this video, so it still works.

Does going to temple town ruins break the great rune?
No, I'm pretty sure that won't break the great rune. The path to temple town ruins does pass underneath the shadow keep, but it didn't break for me.
