I've heard a lot of people talking about it, it's not too hard to dodge though. It seems like its' priority is crazy high or something? Either run towards them on start up or jump towards them and they are kinda left with their pants down. It's scary but not broken. Worst thing I've seen is the back hand blade with the shredder explosion.
Biggest mistake From made this DLC was not having the equivalent to a Spear of the Church player boss fight, tbh. Miss those days of actually *being* the boss.
The description portion about ignoring shields is specifically for the Ash of War. It will literally just hit people through their guard, it's pretty sick.
actually the midra's flame of frenzy is pretty good for pve to proc madness on yourself and get the insane bonuses from the talisman, hand and helmet, over 6k snipes WITHOUT the frenzy seal is nuts
@@LobaGold I'd rather use flame grant me strength, howl is not worth the 30% increase damage taken only for 5% more damage dealt also flame gives you extra stamina regen (and physical and fire is all you need for this build) also howl takes a bit longer, even if it costs less fp also midra's looks fucking cool as fuck, imagine a dude just starts going insane after summoning a sun, drinks a bottle of mana and starts hitting your for 7k snipes vs seeing a dude just screaming gotta instill fear in the hearts of the bosses
@@tempoaccla4041 I like that howl costs less fp and lasts longer than fgms. Also it’s very on brand for madness builds. Ailment talisman is great for self procing madness! I hadn’t thought to use midras like that but it’s a good idea!
The katana reminds me of Darkdrift so maybe they're trying to say that the sword can go through shields like Darkdrift could. It would make sense seeing as the blade looks like it's just ungulating darkness
Nanaya's torch is easily my favorite new frenzy toy from the DLC, virtually an instant madness proc if you can get it off point blank. It's a really easy way to get the boosts from Aged One's Exultation and Madding Hand (whose bonus stays if you switch off the weapon), though you have to be very close to your opponent to actually get the buffs. Midra's Flame currently just feels like a quick way to proc madness on yourself which can be great if you like using the dumpling head. I almost feel like it's bugged, like it's supposed to build madness in proximity like the ball of Frenzied Flame in Liurnia with how quickly it builds madness on the caster, though that might just be wishful thinking lol. Other than that, as someone else said, it feels more useful as an emote than anything else.
The Sword of Night does Shield Chip, meaning like Scythes and Shotels it will do some of its damage through any shield. It has 50% Shield Chip, so shields are 50% less effective at blocking against it. This applies to both the physical damage and the magic damage, so if the shield has 100% phys absorption and 50% magic absorption, then it only blocks 50% of incoming physical damage and 25% of magic damage from the Sword of Night.
To be honest Ive been having the most fun with my little rl30 +5 weps build, sneaking around grabbing loot and trying to figure out how to kill some of these overtuned bosses. Lamenter was actually pretty difficult as I just couldnt kill the clones in time as I was so weak but I finally figured it out. Now doing Lamenter invasions in Stormvale which is pretty hilarious.
In terms of your madness buildup, the DLC has absolute winners on focus resist with Armor of Solitude set & talismans, and absolute dumpsters with the various +stat/beast helms having -focus penalty. You should probably keep this in mind as you're trying to madness your opponent or not.
If Midra's Flame of Frenzy's ''eye'' would cause passive madness build-up in the caster's vicinity, I think it would justify using it. Otherwise, Unendurable Frenzy does a very similar job and for much more damage. Midra doesn't have the discharge with slow recovery at least.
I'd recommend Nanaya's torch aow which is better than the spell to build frenzy and burns less FP. Also the maddening hand is not bad and builds frenzy in an instant should you hit the aow. Finally but not least, the madness perfume bottle is a good madness tool that becomes broken with flaming sparks aow.
Using the madness perfume or any perfume in the offhand is extremely with large weapons to cover there weaknesses it also it's good for people who are being passive or making 3 people charging at u back off a bit with its range
omg this build makes people truly mad, look at the way they're all rolling off cliffs! you know, people roll off cliffs in my invasions all the time, but it's usually the kind of thing I can imagine myself doing. but in this video, they are like 30 feet away from the ledge and you're not even attacking them, and they just spontaneously have a stroke and roll like 15 times to the edge of the cliff, and they're standing right on the edge, the ledge should be plainly visible even with their camera facing away from it, just due to the camera distance... yet they roll one more time into the abyss. it's like they're having a moment of clarity, like a cathartic fulfillment of their freudian death wish, they disengage from the battle because they finally understand that coming to grips with their own mortality is more important.
It's a damn shame: I haven't played Elden Ring in two years and just started a new build for the dlc. Boy, have I gotten bad at this game, good Lord. It will take me a while to get to Mohg with a ready-to-go build :(
this build is fire🔥, that story you told about a rolling sparks solo host sounds like something that happened to me! i killed a blue and then as i was fighting, the host one-shot me but then got killed by a co-invader! so if that’s you, GG Saint
If we're mentioning the great katana, can we talk about how absolutely criminal it is that we can't put unsheathe on it?! "Oh but it is too big how would you draw it--" IF IT CAN GO ON THE NAGAKIBA IT CAN GO ON THE GREAT KATANA. Also in a similar vein, not being able to put overhead stance on normal katanas sucks too. That would have been sick.
@@SMohgstein that's only assuming you haven't ran out of walking mausoleums, cuz there's no more in the dlc. And word to the wise, IM ALWAYS playing dark souls PAL! Powerstancing is a conspiracy theory and all weapons deserve to be chaos infused

also, the torch works 100x better than the incant (hardly exaggerating) and if you're the real mean type, the off hand torch ash applies main hand weapon weapon buffs(so does the throwing shield, these are bugged). do with that what you will
No idea. I mentioned in this video that I have a similar build like this at level 80, I got literally zero DLC invasions at 80. I don't think anyone is running it that low.
Saint i must admit. I felt it in my bones that Frenzy Katana would exist. But alas, it was not to be. We can only hope in the eventual Elden Ring 2 we will know its reality.
Always love the frenzy build, shame about Midras. Youre gonna love messmers orb. Best incant from dlc imo. Fire serpent is also awesome. Cherry on the cake is Fire knight greatsword combos into offhand attacks. Enjoy
Methgoat is a Harsh Noise/Black Metal project from Los Angeles. I died laughing when you said Methgoat. I have all their demos and a couple shirts. Check em out Riot.
It's funny because I first started calling DS3 dragon form Methgoat back in 2017 and that's when the band first released a demo. I wonder if I read their name and remembered it subconsciously, or if they saw that video or if it's just the weirdest coincidence of all time
Also if you want a laugh Saint, I beat the last boss with the Carian Thrusting Shield and made a build around it, while someone I know in a Playstation group chat rage quit and uninstalled Elden Ring while they were using the lightning bottles one shot cheese build, literal definition of a skill issue.
backhand blades have been my favourite so far. i haven't done any pvp yet but i've been really enjoying playing the dlc as an arcane incantation caster build
Hey hey lets not get crazy. You know that if you get a buff for unsheathed Miyazaki will probably give it to the moonviels ash of war to. I suspect because he thinks it's funny?
I know why you mentioned the Fingerprint shield, and I'll be honest I did use the Carian Thrusting Shield on the final boss, but on my second character which is my Carian Knight which is gonna be similar to your redeemed Geoff build, I'm gonna fight the final boss of the DLC again without the poke shield.
I think the thrusting shields being introduced in the expansion and being that good is not a coincidence. The antspur/fingerprint shield poke stats against the last boss is funny to me for that reason. There's a weapon that's cool and new to try out and people just default to the old reliable.
@saintriot I do find the Thrusting Shield fun, but I need to fight the boss more to learn the fight better, I 100% agree with you on the bosses should've been challenging because it's what we all paid for.

Midra's Flame of Frenzy pales in comparison to the Greatsword of Damnation's ability to drive people to madness.

11:49 the mortal blades clash once more

Also honestly Midra’s spell should build up some madness if the enemy is staring at it or something, cuz boy is it useless
lol at Saint going from 'ugh weeb edgelords using anime katanas' to falling in love with the most chuuni weapon in the game
I love the vibe of unhinged rambling with malicious organ music in the background, great vid man, madness enjoyers are eating good after the dlc
Good Ol' Methgoat, always there when you need an ear

I really wish they gave you the spinny pirouette that lord of frenzied flame does as an ash of war. It really resonates. the indulging in the madness.
The sword of darkness's ash of war goes straight through shields, as if they weren't blocking.
That Midra Greatsword should’ve been a Great Katana instead. You got robbed saint!

Rakshastas does the most damage when your stats are right. It also has a different running moveset to the other two great katanas

Otherwise, Unendurable Frenzy does a very similar job and for much more damage. Midra doesn't have the discharge with slow recovery at least.
I noticed when fighting the sword of night NPC that I couldn't always guard counter. Maybe that's it's power?

Balance patches have drastically changed the game since then. You'll be alright once you acclimate to how it works now.
Yes, the infamous madness katana
the sword is semi corporeal like the dark drift that's why it does damage through shields
Still just in the first map area, but I believe the hoarfrost stop comes from the giant lion puppet remembrance.

So far I'm having a blast with putrescence cleaver invasions, it deletes people so satisfyingly, its addictive

You should try the Frenzy Torch’s ash of war. Basically Midras incant but better in every way.
I always wear rags in souls games and we finally got some in the DLC
Rakshasa's great katana is more or less a chaos blade, but it's not madness. Oh well
I heavily considered putting it on the build. The "take more damage but always be swinging" definitely reminded me of Chaos Blade.
