What impresses me the most about chase vids isn't the really good combat and being able to do 1vs many, it's the light speed menu swapping Man is an actual wizard at it
It's so refreshing to see the first invasion because its just pure melee combat. No spamming ashes and spells, no annoying incantations, no cheesy AoW, no blender, no toxic behavior, just raw face-to-face fight and wins the best. I miss things like that in this game's PvP
Well the pvp caos in this game is fun overall. And indeed, most of the matches the coin won't be at your side, unfairly. But wtf that what makes the pvp loop so good. Like, you'll gotta Ring this time, now this time the enemy gotta Ring, Elderly speaking, at the end the elden ring was meant for everyone, everyone gets a chance on the ring
He was hitting the watch dogs statue with Crystal darts I'm guessing trying to get it to attack you but that's not how that works it just makes them attack each other
Dual wield setups are some of the most fun ive had in ER honestly. A couple of my favorites were Katana with offhand Zwei, and UGS with dagger. You can keep the entire katana moveset including its really good ashes like Unsheathe or Spinning Slash, and the Zwei keeps its hyper armor when 1 handed so you can drop it on people trying to outpoise you. You can even swing it while holding unsheathe for a "secret" third stance follow up lol. Colossal sword and dagger is pretty fun for status builds since theres daggers with innate bleed, and a crouch poke to dagger true combo sets them up for an R1 rollcatch, which will pop bleed on most people if both are bleed infused. Or because of how Occult ashes work you could become a double status monster with a poison infused dagger and a bleed Zwei with the Poison Mist ash (which can roll catch after a crouch poke too!)
Offhand colossal is entirely underrated. Especially with mainland katana. My favourite pairing is Meteoric ore blade + Ruins Greatsword. I’ve never tried it with unsheathe though - I like that idea.
Bro I have huge respect for you by your ability to adapt to different setups and quickly find optimal ways to come up on top on many different scenarios. That's some next level skill and quick thinking.
Wait, it’s 108 poise to go through the *second* offhand light? What the hell, that explains so much! I kept getting poise broken in full Crucible wondering why this tiny little stick was breaking my attempts at greatsword swings.
I think the blue hitting the Watchdog was mistakenly trying to use the crystal darts which make NPC's aggro each other, pretty sure frenzied NPC's don't attack invaders. But, if you use a bewitching branch then they are allied and will attack invaders
14:16 I love battles on the frozen lake. I love the wide open fights. This was a force to be reckoned with…and Chase is always up for the challenge. Strategy always wins.
That first invasion was a really good fight. Chase demonstrated some excellent movement and spacing. It's my birthday today so I'm not gonna count gravity kills Edit: there weren't any anyways haha
i used to run a Hand Axe in my offhand, usually with the Banished Knight’s halberd and sometimes with the Longhaft Axe, and it was so much fun. no one ever sees it coming!

I just started the video... but I hope you tried the off-hand Lance! It has hyper armor on its L1 for whatever reason. I love to use main hand Godfrey's Axe, and off hand Lance. Very fun & effective combo. You should try it!
@@Kryptnyt as far as im concerned its not a bug. Its not a chainsaw. Theres no hoops you have to jump through, you use a weapon fully as intended in that respective slot. The beast champions great hammer & moonlight greatsword uniquely gets a one handed r1 true combo. Some weapons just have a random value turned up and it makes a difference. Doesnt mean its a glitch. Unintentional? Sure i can see that. But a bug? No.
Would love to see a necromancer theme build. Rosus axe, family heads (low key super powerful), rancor, tibia summon etc. Maybe a spooky grim reaper scythe for the obligatory black flame tornado
Those first two guys were really good. Stormcaller is an ash of war you kinda have to bait someone into running into. Most ppl run into that first stun, then the damage on the second hit is amazing.
9:20 i just imagine the host or someone is panicking with zero health flasks left, so they drop a warming stone as their last hope and chase is just like "oh a warming stone? Maybe i should actually start trying"😭
Definitely been looking forward to seeing one of these. Been experimenting with offhand weapons in a playthrough and it's really fun. Lots of interesting combinations too. Offhand with katars, the wizkishi or the glintstone Kris have gotten some interesting surprises. I've been experimenting with Estoc weapons too
I love off-hand weapons. Just having the ability to extend or expand upon a weapons moveset rules. I have great success with an off hand Curved Greatsword the hitstun is great enough to set up some funky pseudo combo and roll catch potential. Nice to see you giving it a run! Enjoyed the fights! Catch ya on the next one.
I've been enjoying colossal weapons w/ offhand rapier lately! Giza's Wheel/Cleanrot Sword & Rotten Avatar Staff/Antspur are both very fun setups on my higj level quality build.
I'd like to see you try an offhand Curved Greatsword and a main hand dagger. I've fought a player using that with cold infusions when doing the Varre quest invasions and it seemed surprisingly effective.
Man loving your content! Finished the only level up through pvp and am on video 239 of "elden ring pvp" (lol might have a problem but seems like a good one to have). An idea just occurred to me. In your elden ring level up through pvp series you said you wanted to do it again with some adjustments. I liked the adjustments you mentioned, it made sense, an idea I had was to also have taunters tounge on permanently. Itd be cool to see what TheBro does when HE is being invaded lol.
My favorite is with the zweihander in the main hand, and a great curved sword in the left hand, u can true combo with a crouch poke into a basic L1, it melt the health bar and break posture with ease
I also wonder how effective offhand whips can be too. The way the shamshir works made me think off handing weapons that have unique r1s can have effective mixups offhand. This way of playing ER reminds me of armored core, maybe some crossbows can be also a good offhander.
You should try main hand Celebrant's Cleaver and offhand Halberd. Cleaver has a great chasedown and is really fast with the R1. Halberd is good for poking and spacing. I find a lot of people don't know what to do,since it has a lot of varitey . If you pair both of them with a good AoW it makes for a really fun playstyle.
Watching these makes it hard to remember the host is indeed the one with the advantage in PvP Feels like no matter how much help you got, when chase invades the advantage swaps
I’m left handed so I always try to optimize a left handed character, ds2 did it the best, even with different 2h animations if you 2h your left hand item
Ive been doing a bunch of research but i cant seem to find a good offhand for gheeza do you have any recommendations for PvE ive tried a katana dagger and finally settled on a shield crash id love any info you could share 🙌
Does it? Oh wow I just read up on the lore behind the hood ans I didnt know its likely a mogh follower. (Spoilers) I kinda see int/faith as a Fia/godwyn champion since when you strike Fia at some point next to godwyn's corpse he releases skulls at you and she says, 'darling is that you'
I've watched for a long time, and only played elden ring 1/2 through. How do you have infinite or seemingly infinite materials? At least a whole bunch of the stat changing items? I'd love to know how to change builds more often.
Hey Chase, not sure if you’ll read this but I need a small suggestion. Is it worth upgrading the godskin’s blackflame tornado weapon? It uses regular stones and not somber, not sure if it’s worth in the long run.
Not Chase but have an answer. You can get infinite amounts of all regular smithing stones except for the one used to upgrade to +25. I'd say focus on another weapon until endgame, but if you've already cleared C. Farum Azula then you should be good to get whatever you want to +24 completely safely.
@nakiangoderich3014 theres bell bearings for the regular ones too. A +24 weapon is plenty powerful, and you can get all of them to 24 once you have the bell bearing and some runes to spend. It's worth tracking them all down. The godskin peeler is a decent weapon. The black flame ash is a pretty good ash of war
How do you do the crazy fast menu swapping. I don’t fucking understand. I can use keyboard. I can use controller. I can button map. I can’t figure out how you’re doing these equipment swaps so fast.
you're just trying to look for builds that match the hat, aren't you chase?
i approve!
What impresses me the most about chase vids isn't the really good combat and being able to do 1vs many, it's the light speed menu swapping
Man is an actual wizard at it
Dude makes it look so simple, even under pressure.
He's been doing that since DS3. He's even pulled off the fabled full armor switch riposte off of a parry
Oh no, Chase has fallen into the halstoc hole😔
Only St. Trina’s Torch can save us now
I was afraid of the day he went full meta. only thing missing is the bull goat

Icerind hatchet has the same r1 moveset and longer reach. I did that with the zamor curved sword to keep the zamor ash but the quick L1!

Chase is about to have the most insane boost in content generation and I am freakin here for it.
Non power stanced dual wielding, exactly what I was wanting to see! Great video!
A video series of cosplaying as starting classes. Confessor, bandit, vagabond etc. Only using the kit that you're given. Leveled up of course
Would love to see a necromancer theme build. Rosus axe, family heads (low key super powerful), rancor, tibia summon etc. Maybe a spooky grim reaper scythe for the obligatory black flame tornado
Urumi with offhand Nagakiba is super fun, would love to see a video of it from ya
Those first two guys were really good.
Stormcaller is an ash of war you kinda have to bait someone into running into. Most ppl run into that first stun, then the damage on the second hit is amazing.

9:34 how tf did chase not get hit here? Absolutely cracked spacing.
Actually got a notification after 29 secs after upload...
Suprising honestly
Grafted Blade Greatsword gives you a 5 second long Endure, you can pair that with a piercing weapon like Rusted Anchor in your left hand
That guy was killing the merchant for his bell bearing, he is the most annoying one to buy from because of the sanguine nobles

Had some fun with this concept. Was using a claymore in my main and a staff with carian slicer for my off hand. Quick follow ups, it’s a good time l!
16:50 the idea to gravity pull an enemy into range of the moonveil (or a different attack) is an idea that could maybe make a decent video

The meta used to be daggers in offhand and that was really good against aggressive people
Love the offstoc banished knight halberd setup.
You've yet to try the Miquellan knight's sword with its unique R2's I believe.

You should do a video around both ruptured crystal tears. 🤯
I don't get how you didn't include hand axe in your build/intro. Thats wild.
i wish it would be possible to do running and jumping attacks, and ripostes with the left hand weapon.
chase can you use psgs before it gets nerfed into oblivion? i heard it's getting a massive nerf in the dlc
Holy smokes that double kill
love to see a godskin build, black flame incants and all :)

hey chase, would you please do not attack unaware players if u mind?
I love your skill level
Would love to see more failed invasions ngl
What build will everyone rock for the dlc??
I tried using dual katanas but somehow the one in my left hand didn't do too much damage
I suggest a Prince if Death run with ghostflame, kinda int/faith with the great hood or something
I don’t like the hp reduction but it looks cool tho
Does it? Oh wow I just read up on the lore behind the hood ans I didnt know its likely a mogh follower.
(Spoilers)
I kinda see int/faith as a Fia/godwyn champion since when you strike Fia at some point next to godwyn's corpse he releases skulls at you and she says, 'darling is that you'
Hey chase, question, how do you make so many builds?
He save scums his character then builds it up from that point
Ah, I thought he had loads of larva tears to change builds
I wish there was more of an incentive to go thrusting sword/polearm in pve.
*_happy PVE-Killsteal noises_*
I wonder if you can create a build that is focussed entirely on PVE-Support (and helping the PVE secure kills)...
Do you ever die in invasions? Dudes probably undefeated lol
