Many players resort to external modifications to overcome the difficulty of the Souls games, especially the recently released Elden Ring, and regardless of the fact that these modifications negatively affect the enjoyment of the events of the title and the level of challenge it presents, there are legitimate ways that enable you to have an exaggerated power that makes you deal with all threats easily And great smoothness, and this is done through the use of configurations or builds of tools, weapons and equipment for your character, which gives you an absolute advantage.
Through this article, we will learn about the best equipment and tools to easily overcome the challenges of the Elden Ring.
Fire’s Deadly Sin
Tools used: Fire’s Deadly Sin, Bloodflame Blade, Seppuku, Eclipse Shotel.
The heart of this combination is Fire’s Deadly Sin’s spell, which requires 19 Faith points to use. This ability allows you to set yourself on fire and damage anything that approaches you, but it turns out that this ability has a secret (possibly unintended) interaction that allows you to add additional damage effects to the flame.
If you use a Bloodflame Blade on a right-hand compatible weapon while Fire’s Deadly Sin is active, the bleeding effect will transfer to Fire’s Deadly Sin ability, meaning you’ll be engulfed in flames that deal fire damage and bleed as you get close enough to an enemy, you can also Use Seppuku Ash of War to add more bleeding damage to your weapon and increase the amount of damage caused by using Fire’s Deadly Sin’s spell.
For PvP encounters, use the unique Eclipse Shotel skill (Death Flare) in conjunction with Fire’s Deadly Sin to reduce the amount of time it takes to apply an instant kill effect to your enemies in PvP mode. This combination requires a larger investment in stats (10 Strength, 25 Dexterity, 30 Faith points) to use it properly.
Erdtree Greatshield
Items used: Fire’s Deadly Sin spell and Erdtree Greatshield’s shield.
This combination focuses on the Erdtree Greatshield, which comes with a unique ability that allows you to fire a projectile when you dodge any spell using it, however, it turns out that if you set Fire’s Deadly Sin on fire and continue to “dodge” that effect you applied to yourself, you could actually shoot Shell this shield whenever you want.
This means that you can transform yourself into something like an indomitable tank with a nearly unlimited ability to fire powerful magical projectiles from a safe distance, the advantage of using this design is that you rely on traditional magic that requires no focus points, and it costs very little power Relatively endurable.
The only negative point of this design is that some enemies are so resistant to shield damage that you may need to find a backup plan that will allow you to deal with those annoying battles at times, it also takes a while to get the Erdtree Greatshield, so you can only rely on this strategy After a while.
The Mage
Tools used: Terra Magicus, Cerulean Hidden Tear, Comet Azur, Lusat’s Glinstone Staff, Azur’s Glinstone Crown, Graven-School Talisman.
The core components of this build are Comet Azur, Terra Magicus, and Cerulean Hidden Tear, and once you have these items, you’ll need to get any additional gear that boosts the power of Glinstone’s magic which includes an upgraded version of Lusat’s Glinstone Staff, the Graven School spell, and several Intelligence Points.
Once you have all the necessary pieces, you’ll need to get close to the enemy’s range, cast a Terra Magicus, use the flask combined with the Cerulean Hidden Tear and cast the Comet Azur spell, this combination will cast a much stronger version of the Comet Azur spell thanks to the Cerulean Hidden Tear effect, controlling the opponent even Die, in other words, this design will allow you to defeat some of the toughest enemies in the Elden Ring in just a few seconds without giving them a chance to get close to you.
You should know that this design does not work for all enemies, especially bosses who are unhackable or have multiple stages before dying, and can only be used once per battle before recharging.
Sword of Night and Flame
Tools used: Sword of Night and Flame, Radagon’s Soreseal, Carian Filigree Crest.
Your first goal should be to get the Sword of Night and Flame as quickly as possible, you can actually grab this sword without beating any boss, but you should know that the path you have to follow to get it early in the game is dangerous and complicated But the video below will help you achieve your goal.
Once you have the sword, your next goal is to raise your character’s stats to the minimum levels required to use it properly. This means that you’ll need 12 Strength, 12 Dexterity, 24 Intelligence, and 24 Faith, and you can access those stats around level 35.
You’ll want to get a Carian Filigreed Crest at some point, as this spell reduces the FP cost of your special weapon skills, you’ll also need to start raising your power once you can equip the sword, and get more enchantment vials to use to replenish your magic power from time to time Given the power of this weapon, the faster you get it, the more easily you can eliminate your enemies.
The Moonveil Sorcerer
Tools used: Moonveil, Lusat’s Glinstone Staff, Loretta’s Greatbow, Glinstone Pebble, Rock Sling, Carrion Greatsword, Radagon’s Soreseal, Carian Filigreed Crest.
To use this build early in the game, you may want to choose the Samurai or Prisoner faction as they are better equipped to use the Moonveil at first, and you can find the weapon by following the instructions in the video below.
Once you get the weapon you’ll need to upgrade your stats to 12 Strength, 18 Dexterity and 23 Intelligence, and you’ll be able to properly use Moonviel’s unique ability (Transient Moonlight) to attack quickly with magic enabling you to punish enemies over surprisingly long distances and those attacks often pass through Barriers, therefore, this will be your primary attack for much of the rest of the game.
You have quite a few options in terms of complements, you can go with traditional methods with Lusat’s Glintstone or Meteorite, but some prefer a bow or shield, as for spells, it’s best to get Radgon’s Soreseal at some point to increase your base stats, and Carian Filigreed Crest to decrease The cost of using Moonveil, and any other spells that will either help boost Moonveil’s attack, or boost your ability to use skills, the Spirit Horn is also a great option because it restores FPs every time you defeat an enemy.
By raising your stats appropriately, and acquiring better spells or gadgets as you progress through the game, you’ll be unstoppable for a very long time, which makes this a better design to make the game easier in terms of battles and engagements.
Dual-Katana Bleed
Tools used: Two Uchigatana, Seppuku, Lord of Blood’s Exultation, Lost Ash of War, White Mask.
The easiest way to ideally use this design is to choose the Samurai faction at first, since they go on their journey with the Uchigatana weapon, which means they can get another weapon of the same type faster than any other faction, once you have your weapons, the journey of obtaining Seppuku will begin Ash of War and duplicate it using the Lost Ashes of War item, applying this combination to both weapons.
Next you will look for a Lord of Blood’s Exultation that increases your attack power whenever anything near you loses blood, the second option is preferably The Winged Sword Insignia or Radagon’s Soreseal, but you have a lot of flexibility when it comes to choosing other spells, so Feel free to use whatever works for you, but if you really want to take advantage of this design, you might want to consider the White Mask which also boosts your attack power whenever blood loss occurs, not mandatory, but offers a huge advantage.
The basic idea behind this design is that you will use Seppuku to take out damage from your weapons, which will make you able to attack enemies quickly, and this combination also works perfectly with most of the different bosses and enemies, as well as in PvP matches.
Mimic Tear
Mimic Tear summons a clone of yourself for 660 HP, this clone comes with all the equipment and stuff you have when summoned, and it can even heal itself and replicate your attacking tactics. This also means you can do things like equip your bow when summoned by Mimic so that it attacks from distance while you are approaching enemies or vice versa.
Although it will take some time to get this summon and upgrade it correctly, using it makes the game much easier, and fully upgrading it ensures that you bring down the strongest bosses very smoothly and without much suffering, although this feature works better in clashes Close proximity with strong defenses and slow weapons, but useful in all cases without exception.
You can buy the game from Steam!
