What level is this build
@@PotatoGod1837 It appears to be a 150
Thanks
First off I love your TH-cam’s and all the hard work that you do and secondly, I hope you make this into a build because OMG BLOOD works too 🤯 the ice is awesome so I thought let’s put something else on Dane’s Footwork the other martial weapons and ice was great but I said let’s switch it up and Blood works also 😅💪🏾
I mean of course it's unfortunately a race about getting the videos as fast out as possible in new game releases but still take your time a bit when you need, you are doing so much good for us, so thanks :)
im pretty sure he had early access, so these could be older clips that hes just uploading now because the full dlc is released
The "I got Hands" Build
The "OnlyHands" build 👊 lol
"The Hands Between"
@TheLordofChampions "OnlyHands" is actually a fire name tho 🙌🏿
Ah finally I can cosplay as a MK character and initiate mortal combat against all my enemies.
tarnished vs hoarah loux 2: electric boogaloo
@@zeffmalchazeen3429 I wish you could have his (and the crucible knights) quick stomp though.
*Mortal kombat
We Tarnished suffer so much all because Marika didn't consult with the Elder Gods. Smh 😂
I did the exact same thing 😂😂 dryleaf arts is pretty cool tho, especially the jump attack
Does bro sleep?
Elden ring gives him energy
And I believe he has a team that helps him get his shit together
Bro has a whole monopoly 💀🙏@@ScarleSimpMikaelOre
He's cooking
😂😂 I wonder
I can confirm you can skip Castle Ensis and the boss using the spirit spring and the NPCs will still be on the other side of the Castle, however the Needle Knight will no longer be available to summon during the boss fight in Castle Ensis
You can skip a lot of stuff, just shouldn't xD
I skipped castle ensis by accident and wound up on sacdu Altus by using a spirit spring. Then somehow I wound up in the keep of shadows and out in a tropical jungle looking area 😂 I haven’t even found the second remembrance boss yet but I’m having such a blast exploring!!
Her sign didn’t disappear for me, even after talking to her on the other side
@@foxstrom3614Same here I was able to summon her for the boss fight.
**SPOILER** (maybe?)
I'm pretty sure the sign disappears once you've reached Shadow Keep (road going North from Castle Ensis and you get the notification about a rune.
Your builds are consistently so goddamn cool. Sure, one can optimize damage / survivability / convenience, but you do it in such thematic packages, and it just works. It's beautiful.
I haven’t played ER in 2 years so I forgot just how FUN creating builds are and that I used Fextra videos for them, going with this build as soon as I find what I need, currently building for your Mylady build!
Literally picked up the dry leaf arts yesterday after slapping Dane into the dust so this is impeccable timing. Appreciate the time and effort that has clearly gone into these videos my friend 👍🏻
I WAS JUST WAITING ON THIS TO DROP, THANK YOU MY G
ME TO
Super happy to see you making more builds. Unfortunately, I'm still in the early part of the DLC, so I won't be looking at your videos until I feel confident that I'm far enough along that I won't be spoiled. Definitely looking forward to coming back and watching these new build videos for inspiration. Keep them coming!
I've been asking for this kind of gameplay and style of play for so long and Miyazaki finally delivered. I've never been happier playing a souls game before now. Thanks for the cool build.
Just tried the alternate route. It does work. Awesome keeping us in the loop and do fun builds. Keep up the great work !!
I love the new dry leaf arts, thanks for making a build on them!
Dude, i just love your channel. If a friend of my asks a question about a build, i just tell them to go to your channel.
Gonna be a busy summer, love it!
You guys are amazing!! Thanks for all the amazing content and builds you create for us 👏
I have been waiting for this one!
I really love your builds and I can’t wait to see more they are amazing
Fex, you've done it again! Great guide.
Really hoping for some kind of Kung-Fu Sorcerer build in the future too.
"I cast these hands"
Thatd be a fun Goku build with Comet Azur.
I mean that's pretty much what this build is, the cold affinity scales with intelligence (as well as str and dex) so you could just pump up int and carry a glintstone staff in your offhand
I am in love with this weapon. The animations are just sooo amazing. I actually really like palm strike. When charged you have super armor and it hits very hard and does so much damage and knock back. It also has decent range when charged. Takes some practice but its good. Can't wait to the other martial ashes.
I've been using the Cold Arts for a while before I saw your video because a lot of DLC enemies are vulnerable to frost and I think the Frost Stomp works great, however, I've been using the Dryleaf Whirlwind ash and it is absolutely insane, that's worth a try imo.
Absolutely loving this build
I've been running this pretty much all day since I got them earlier and really love it, then you post this, awesome timing 😃
How is it against bosses?
Lmk if it’s good
@@coldven0m It’s a bit rough haha
Didn’t test in the base game but I assume it’ll be a lot more viable, but in SOTE it’s rough.
Bosses are very aggressive and even with 51 poise you’ll find yourself interrupted more often than you’d like. You also don’t do much damage per hit, it’s not strong like that, meaning that hit and run is completely off the table.
You want to be able to hit longer combos, but the bosses really don’t give much room for that, so you find yourself limited to jump R2, running R2 and the stomp.
On the other hand, it’s honestly really really fun to use, frost procs surprisingly quickly and the jump R2 is actually decent at breaking stance.
It’s not a broken weapon by any means, but it’s the most fun I found so far.
@@coldven0m Against some bosses it's pretty damn good
@coldven0m The build for mine is a little different, I am more Dex Int focused rather than evenly spread across the 3 stars he has. This way I can also use the cold perfume bottles when I wanna switch it up and I am able to cast here and there. But all are frost proc focused. You have to be pretty aggressive and upclose with the fists which can be hard for some bosses but it procs frost very fast. If a boss runs away/around I can do some chip with a spells then go back to punching when they get close. Very fun!
Quick note on the how to get section, the npcs, gesture, and note are absolutely there regardless of route. I went spiritspring -> fort reprimand (and its jumpscare boss) -> moorth ruins while exploring and everything appeared as it was in the vid.
Thanks for putting so much work into these vids I can't imagine what your sleep schedule must be right now lmao
I am SO FN EXCITED to get this skill set!
This build looks super fun. Can't wait to finish the DLC and get started with all these new builds.
i live the fact that i just happen to be in that area and i would have 100% missed this if i didn't see the video happy that yt recommended it to me
At first I wasn't convinced by the frost stomp but I think you have convinced me
Bro this is so cool. Definitely gonna find out a Raden build using lighting fist/incantation.
Wow, its amazing how you put out so manny build at this quality in a short time. But as any long term fan of this channel i have to say may be you should slow down a bit and get some good sleep. Take care of your health. We will be waitting here and see every build you put out on the future so just stay healthy men. 😊🎉🎉
Appreciate that
@@Fextralifedamn, I hope your mom feels better man
@@FextralifeTake time off if you need to! We hope your mom feels better
God bless your Mom man. I’ll be praying for her.
After picking up at least one of each new weapon type and playing around with them, I have to say either these art forms or the light great swords are my favorite weapons. Both weapons types have such flashy move sets. I can't wait to see what sort of shenanigans I can get up to when I find some of the unique weapons with flashier skills. Messing around with different weapons is my favorite part about games like this.
great build idea! frost synergizes well here
0:33
That armor set looks dope 🔥
i loved your idea and i'm going to try it! thank you
need a faith type monk build with this weapon
The firefist.
Flame Art Infusion with high Faith for a fire fist faith monk
frost monk reminds me of D3 post Malthael. Exploding Palm with the cold upgrade was cool.
We appreciate everything you're doing for us. I hope your mom is doing okay, take another break if needed for your mom. Take care of her for us, She's our mom too.
Anyways, love your vids. Also thanks for blurring out the boss names
Thank you, I will
she's not our mom too wtf is this weird parasocial shit
Gr8 content as always. I was waiting for this build since I got the dryleaf arts. I'm using the dryleaf whirlwind ash of war instead on cold affinity.
Enemies hit hard is an understatement
Cant wait to see what you cook up on monster hunter wilds , this is insane thanks for the great builds and vids
That actually looks badass
Bleed bloodhound step is what I’m working with love this new play style
was waiting for this one (:
This looks so fun
Been waiting for this video since I saw the trailer
I love Hand to Hand builds. Started a new character for Kung Fu Playthrough and im hyped to 1v1 Hourah Loux with his own attacks
Thank you Fextralife for your dedication to get these guides out. I bet you're running low on sleep 😅😂
seeing your build videos are going to make me play this game waay too much 🤣
God I can't wait for the kicks technique.
Yes, the NPC will be there if you take the alternative route. so, the guide works both ways. good work
Most badass weapon in the game and super fun to use
ayyy I was thinking about this exact build, now I don't have to test it myself in order to commit to it
Wow I came up with something very similar but I ended up prioritizing intelligence and you get the sameish hand to hand damage with the cold infusion and having access to ranged spells like lorettas mastery for range or founding rain of stars to crank the DPS through the roof in a small ish aoe
Props to you for hiding the names of the enemies and giving us a chance to avoid spoilers.
Dont sleep on palm blast.
Good for posture damage, stagger and damage. Also, you seem to have a lot more poise while charging.
I also infused my fists with frost, but I kept the ash of war, and so far I've not even considered changng it until this video.
We had a similar idea, though completely different philosophies. I went fire and instead went full faith, 50 vigor, 35 mind, 30 endurance, 13 str, 11 dex (to equip other things), 50 faith (i personally kept pumping this to 60). Erdtree seal, golden vow, flame grant me strength, change palm blast to flame art for faith scaling, then godfrey icon, shard of alexander, fire scorpion charm, flame-shrouding tear and just palm blast for 6K. I found Palm Blast having full hyper armor super ridiculous, and just went all-in with it. If enemies resist fire I can swap it over to holy and just run holy scorpion, though you'll miss out on the added fire damage boost from flame, grant me strength.
This might be the coolest build ever ❄️😏
My first play through with Danes arts I’ve decided to do a poison build. Pest and rot incantations for backup. The poison flower blooms twice goes so well with the Dryleaf arts.
we love you fextralife
I made a faith monk when I picked it up, but I was looking forward to seeing what kind of build y'all would do with it.
If you want a good looking set I personally recommend Dane's hat, ronin chest, rellanas gloves, and the travellers leg piece. This set fits together nicely and personally i think it looks fire
I can confirm the NPC's are there when you do the alt path. Also looking forward to a Perfume build.
I would like to add few things that might be useful for this build. You can use DIVINE BIRD WARRIOR GREAVES and SHATTERED STONE TALISMAN. Greaves will increase the force generated by kicks and Talisman increases the potency of kicking and stomping skills. From Scadu Altus,west site of grace look towards the castle southeast direction. You will see a sending gate that use imbued stonesword key. it will lead you to another location where you can find this.
This build + AOW Bloodhound's step is also nice to have if youre not that confident in your dodging. its so good in closing in distance since we all have short arms and going out when needed
Divine beast head, bull goat greaves and raptor black feathers also goes crazy with the jump attack on this build because it raises both str and dex at the cost of focus. Plus the Shattered Stone talisman by the fort and you become a freight train with it. At first I did a faith build but now I’m going int.
Nice one , I also really wanted to see a beast claw build
man the palm blast is super awesome but I can see this ash of war working for me too
It’s great .. the frost setup is ideal in the expansion as most of the enemies use fire and are weak to frost including most bosses ❤
for later game i like godskin swaddling cloth, lets you save a bunch of your flasks and usually you can heal like 2 ish times every light combo
Thanks for awesome video appreciate your time. I do feel this video was a bit rushed. I feel talismans weren't talked about that could increase the DMG and didn't mention the other ash of war that can be used with the weapon. Plus a status build other than frost might have more potential. I'm not here to complain I really look forward to your content. Thanks!
This with dragonform and crucible wings is gonna go so unbelievably hard
Please do not forget to get some rest too.
So many uploads I can only imagine how much you are working…
Love the build 😃 Haiiiiiaaaaa *kickand Spin* xD
Finally i found a fun build :)
The divine bird warrior greaves boost all kicking attacks, providing a completely free damage boost. Using the upgraded hand-to-hand art, Dane's Footwork, makes this even better since its nearly all kicks.
I've been doing a bleed version just because I was arcane already from using blood katana but I might try this
Can confirm bypassing the castle boss works. Did it inadvertently on my playthrough and nothing was missing
I used the hand-to-hand with a poison setup. The poison flower blooms twice ash of war is very strong. The dive kick animation of the ash also compliments the moveset of the weapon.
The shattered stone talisman works with divine beast frost stomp, and presumably the kicks your hand to hand weapon can do, so it's also pretty good.
I'm not gonna lie im loving the messmer soldier chest piece. It's a really good mail shirt, especially compared to the one in limgrave i think it would pair well with the kaiden sellsword helmet for a grear viking attire.
i had some success using the palm blast with a bleed infusion. in essence, it's very similar to a star fist endure build where you trade to get a stance break. and it is good for stance breaks, while you're casting it you do get ridiculous amounts of poise, unless you take a whole three hit combo you're not going to be interrupted. sadly, i don't feel the raw numbers are great for it, and you don't get nearly as much use out of it as you do endure. i'll give this one a try.
The armor I wear with it is Danes hat, drake knight chest and greaves and gauntlets of solitude it really makes me feel like a mortal Kombat character
Just changed my build to this it's fucking incredible. I've just tweaked the talismans and equipment a bit.
For the talismans:
Dragoncrest greatshield talisman
Milicents prosthesis
Rotten winged sword insignia
and the 4th talisman I switch between Taker's cameo (for small mobs and normal enemies) and Godskin Swadling cloth (for tankier enemies and bosses) - these really help with keeping our HP pretty high throughout. Don't even need to use health pots most of the time.
And armor:
Head: Iron Kasa (dropped by Yura after killing him at Zamor ruins) - this is purely for fashion.
Torso: Raptor's black feathers (for the jump attack boost).
And Gauntlets of Solitude and Greaves of Solitude for the hands and legs respectively (both dropped by the Blackgaol Knight in the Western Nameless Mausoleum). They have great defensive stats and take our poise to 59 total. and are able to keep us within medium weight and are dropped by literally the first boss in the DLC and he's fairly easy to take down as well.
What's amazing with this build (especially against the tanky enemies) the high speed frost attack stagger + milicents + rotten (damage boost) + taker's cameo (hp regen) stack beautifully. I'm doing constant damage, staggering the bosses and healing at the same time. And because of the high poise I'm able to keep going at it.
Would highly recommend others to try this out! Cheers!
ty my man! I´ve build the same one and I´m having such a fun time its amazing!
What's your stat spread???
@@Scooty-PuffJr. Same as the guide. Can take str and Dex to 40 and then put more in int since it has better scaling. Then more in mind / endurance depending on your playstyle
FYI a wepond for your off hand could be the fire perfume wepond to reset the frost (i use that)
The new Shattered Stone Talisman is a no brainer for this build. Increases power of kicking and stomp moves. Combined with shard of Alex and Rotten Wing Insignia, it hits like a truck.
Just found this weapon and I didn’t want to change my build yet, so I am using ash of war with blood affinity, and man, is so good. Probably not good as Beast claw, but very decent.
i did this build but with the gaius set. it looked hilarious
Wow this build even let me destroy rellana I'm glad they made the hand to hand good
7:08 Shattered Stone Talisman works here too. -5% extra damage on the AOW for +10% damage on your kicks. It’s in the ruins right next to the monk you got the weapon from.
Fextra in the dlc I found a talisman that boost stomp and kick and since in the build there’s a stomp attack and kicking attack I think it’s better than claw talisman
A good preliminary ash of war if you want to try out the build but haven't beaten the divine beast is hoarfrost stomp (you get it from a teardrop scarab outside caria manor). It's a stomp attack that also does a cone of frost in front of the player. It's great for staggering multiple enemies and helping proc frostbite.
I'm fairly certain you can also reach Scadu Altus by jumping off the balcony by the Castle-Lord's Chamber grace before Rellana, the same way you go to get the wing stance aow
My brothers and sisters of the Dry Leaf, let's goooo!
I got a bleed-fu monk. I wish there were more of these hand to hand weapons.
can i get your build? ive been wondering if you could make these bleed and would love to know how.
@PanduhOsrs it isn't exactly an ideal build, I just have them with bloodhounds step and the bleed affinity. Claw talisman, rotten wing sword insignia, lord of blood exultation, and millicent's prosthesis. I've the stonebarb crack tear, but the thorny works well too, but I like doing the jump attack, hence the claw talisman. My stats are hella boosted, so final results will vary as well as the fact I'm on ng+5, so yeah, hope this helps in some way.
@@ghastlyanarchy1720 do you still use the palm strike aow?And also could i still have your stats. atleast the main ones like vig,str,dex etc. Thank you
@@ghastlyanarchy1720 im just honestly trying to figure out what attributes i should prioritize. my current build was based of seppuku and double godskin peelers. so im not sure if i still need the arcane and what not.
@PanduhOsrs I like to be able to use a wide variety of gear and weapons so my stats are pretty up there for all of them tbh. Vigor at 60 strength at 60 dexterity at 80 arcane at 70. If I were doing this, like at a lower level, vigor would still be up there as well as Dex and arcane. They're not as strong as other bleed weapons but they are fun. I don't use the original a.o.w they came with as I like to be as moble as possible with quick striking weapons. Helps keep the pressure on.
Insane work ^^
Can make a parfum bottle please?
We are VERY grateful for this effort involving the Elden Ring DLC, your work is truly professional, but please, take a lil break, this frequency of videos is VERY absurd
Small recommendation, an ash of war you can get later on is called dryleaf whirlwind which makes you do a three or four hit combo, does crazy damage, staggers almost all enemies, hits fast(instantly triggers multihit talismans), and can deal with multiple enemies at once because it sends you forward. I recommend it a lot because it gives you more fun martial art moves and fits the vibe
Dane's hat, nox swordstress armor, and iron rivet gauntlets, blackflame monk greaves are peak fashion
hits 51 poise with bullgoats talisman
