    ansbach’s incantation didn’t have any bleed. The bug is fixed and the incantation is kinda good now, though I’m not sure why you’d use a bleed incantation while already having a bleed weapon. I’m guessing this incantation works better on poison builds. (edit) It’s getting annoying but you can stop telling me about lore, I know that Ansbach is Mohg’s blood knight, he says it in the first goddamn seconds, it’s not a revelation. I’m saying it doesn’t make any gameplay sense, you already have a bleed melee weapon with good damage, why’d you want to use a spell that is melee bleed but less damage and costs fp? It’s cool, yeah but it’s like trying to ride a bike and a car at the same time, it’s not much better than riding a car

      The incantation is there for lore reasons, not for build purposes, it serves a narrative, just like the everything else. It says in a description that Ansbach only uses it when he's ambushed/caught off guard by the enemy, and doesn't have the time to draw his long scythe, or when someone knocks the scythe out of his hands during battle, and he's disarmed, he instead strikes them with his hand as a last ditch effort, turning his arm into a blood flame blade.

    Love how Dane's build turns you into a human blender, but when he uses it when "assisting" you in Romina's fight, he makes it look weak as hell. Romina is already easy enough, and all Dane does for the fight is increase her hp when summoned, meaning the person who's supposed to help you in that fight ultimately just turns it into the challenge run version of the fight.

    Thiollier’s build is lowkey a sleeper(no pun intended). If you put on the exultation talisman that boosts damage when poison is in vicinity. After inflicting sleep and then using the aow on his perfume weapon. You can get the buff while the enemy is sleep and then change back to the fist weapon. And you could probably use st trina smile too.

    I use pretty much exactly Ansbach's build. Whenever I fight my friend with it, he rants to me about how op it is. I think how good a build is depends entirely on how well you mesh with it.
