If you really want a perfect poison build you absolutely need a special piece you can only get on a specific boss named Venom Daoist on chapter 4 by beat it on the back side to see his arms down to the ground. Then you will get Venomous armguard who contain an unique talent than put poison to your enemies with critical hits. This completely changed the build. Try it 🥳
@@MSenseiHDhit his back and his arms will fall off one by one, but try to only hit his back and it will be in your inventory at the end of the fight. It also pairs with the centipede set so you’ll get the set bonuses still
@@MSenseiHD yeah that’s a different armour set I think you get from killing that secret boss in chapter two, search up the venomous armguard and you should find a guide on it. It’s definitely worth the time to get bro
Is he really? I started to use him in the beginning and was so disappointed at the low level of his poison. If I upgrade he is a lot better? Is that the case? If so thank you for Sharing this information. I will try it out
@@MSenseiHD yeah once fully upgraded enemies get one-shot poisoned, also it's quite safe because of the range, just don't used it at point blank or he'll miss
A few of the higher grade spirits have their passive level up as you level them. Scorpion Prince is the same deal. At Max level, his poison will be a lot better.
@@thorinhannahs4614 that makes sense I should of stuck with him i started with it and saw how easy it was to poison with amourworm and never went back to check Plus I didn’t have a want knot of the voidness yet
@4:57 you say at higher levels you won’t need pluck of many but it’s still extremely good end game and especially after starting NG+. Having the relic where they all copy your powerful attack is crazy. A level 4 charged heavy with your huge modifier and the spirit that increases damage in area, it applies to them all. That’s a oneshot build right there too And it leaves room to use other spells and transformations compared to spellbinder
I was only thinking about in a single playthrough but that’s an excellent point if your on a NG+ run then it’s gonna be extremely important to use everything you got in order to do damage. Yeah I have seen thumbnails about one shot builds and after I had slapped for the damage I did. I could figure out ways it could be done pretty quickly
Thank you. I appreciate. I try not to speed it up to quickly but. In some videos I have to because a video you take you 25mins to watch if I didn’t. But I try to keep it at a naturally speed if it’s sped up. Appreciate the feedback tho. People get really made when I don’t speed things up tho telling me I’m trying to just make long videos for the views.
I might of missed it, but I guess you aren't using the Venom Daoists gloves? They allow you to keep the set bonus, and they infilct poison bane whenever you land criticals. It makes it so they are almost always poisoned, which means you can get the poison state triggers off of the spider or centipede staff. The NG+ staff has the highest crit rate, but no poison state procs.
No I never had them. Because I slapped the hell out of him and never hit his arms on his back when I fought him. I didn’t know that was something you could do. I have always played this game blind so everything I built here is from my own experiences. But your right the arm guards are king I gotta wait until I hit new game + to get them 😭
@@thorinhannahs4614 good point. Is it really that much easier? With a powerful build like this one how was the chapter 6 experience for you? I’m here now and I had to switch to my other builds. This one wasn’t hitting as hard as I wanted against some of the other bosses pure speed and blitz attacks
@MSenseiHD I couldn't quite get the centipede build to work. I kept getting stomped in Chapter 5. I stuck with the Pilgrim set and just took it to mythical. Even once I got the Wukong armor, I did best with the pilgrim set. The gourd sprinting and damage increase from sprinting is quite helpful. I did keep the wukong staff on though.
@@thorinhannahs4614 this is exactly what I’m noticing I keep going back to either my daoist build or my frost bane build they are just so broken and have so much more utility. But today when I was testing I was reaching an attack stat of about 320+ with the poison build which slaps really hard. But you have to mix and match a lot to get there. Thanks for letting me know.
Gore-eyed daoist is good too but the “pools” of poison are more like puddles and the enemies are somehow never in it, but he places down a staff the buffs attack and damage reduction, so theoretically its could be tripled damage if all things are working together
The pools of poison!!!! Yes I noticed I ended up changing to the scorpion prince and just getting the poison bane instantly when he is maxed out. This build was cute but now that I know what I know like you said if everything works together it’s great.
There’s a curio that ignores all enemy resistances. Also I don’t know if you know this but if you use the needle then worm guai transformation, the needle will spread your larvae
I didnt know that.. thats insane thanks for letting me know there's so many amazing tips and tricks that I learn my self but also from you guys every day I appreciate you all
@@MSenseiHD no problem! I found that out and tested it on yin tiger and did about 75 percent of his health in about 5 seconds. Definitely my favorite build so far
Man, I don't know if I want the spider celestial staff or the visionary centipede staff. With the venomous armguards you can already get the poison bane which I feel would make sense to then use the centipede staff.
Exactly no your right. I didn’t have or know about the arm guards until everyone in my comments told me about them today. I feel the same way now that I know. I had trouble trying to inflict poison bane to myself and then I found death sting then I built this and found out that if you give poison daoist a couple of backshots after the first fight he will drop the arms for you. 😂Insane
So basically, it’s Guts boosted facade with a little Moxie. Funny how status mechanics carries across different games but are all effective in damage dealing
Dear Bible I have a problem so I'm maxed out my bain resistance are 90 and above, is this the reason why the self-inflicted poison doesn't work for me? I want to try this build but I'm having an issue when I use the gourd the death Stinger doesn't activate Poisoned state.
Thanks for this bro, got all the pieces but completely missed/forgot about the Scorpio prince plus the soak he drops! 🤦🏽♂️👍🏾 Definitely going to make and try out this build. Keep up the good work brother! 🙏🏾👊🏾
Was using this build but also didnt get the armguards that proc poison bane off crits (didnt even know bosses had special "kill" or "break" conditions like in dark souls 1 in this game lol), had to switch builds because I took too much damage from the poison and couldn't dish out enough. Still a cool build
Thats facts. you want to upgrade the lambbrew drink you find in chapter 2 to the dry spirit and then also use the celestial lotus soak and whatever else you like so the regen will counter the effects of the poison completely. Also going to Xu Dog and adding some points into poison bane will really help in the long run. It will be a night and day difference for the build
@@MSenseiHD dang I gotta retry this build after what you just told me. I totally forgot you could up your poison vein through the mind cores. Appreciate the heads up
Can’t remember the name but there is a curio that lets you ignore all status immunities, so you can still poison those who are invulnerable to poison. Def need to use it for those enemies that are immune
For the Beast Buddah Curios, even with the drop rate curios and helm(which I'm pretty sure only works for materials, but was told it might help). 200 Sunday, almost 90 attempts Monday and I got it on attempt 13th attempt today. I had some pretty bad drop rates in elden-ring but this one took the cake for me. I finished my first play thru today, 100%d my journal, the very last phase of the last fight was the hardest for me, even more so then yellow loong and Erlang, what was ur hardest boss fight? I am gonna start my second play thru tomorrow, I think you need 3 to craft the Bull armor fully with the staff if I'm not mistaken. So that's my next goal.
So if you use the Visionary Centipede Staff instead of the Spider Celestial Staff then you aren't going to be applying Poisoned State to the enemy / enemies very often, right? Or is there something else that will apply the poison besides a Transformation or Spirit? The Venomous Armguard will apply Poison Bane on a Critical Hit, but you probably aren't going to get a critical many times on an enemy except a boss or really high HP / tanky mini-boss.
Yeah thats the idea. however if you have a seriously high crit chance and you build around making sure your crit often then venomous armguard is going to be better I think in the long run. At the time of recording I didnt know about the Venomous armguard and comments told me that it was in the game and how to get it. Now I have to do a bunch of testing to see which is better. but they both work.
I have a whole drink guide. go check it out it will show you the location of 4 drinks. Jade Essence, Sunset of the nine skies, Bluebridge and the lamb brew which you already have. You can buy the upgrades after chapter 4 from Shen himself. You can also find a worm near a meditation spot in chapter for right after you reach the temple entrance instead of going left for the boss take a right and go into the area with all the snake monks .. go to the very back and its in a room with a NPC cutscene and meditation spot
Yes there is a soak that you use it instantly heals you if you want to use it. Double combed Rooster blood I think is what it’s called. You get it from a secret boss in chapter 4 duskveil. It will fix that for you or use the dry spirit and celestial lotus seed so it counters the effects of the poison
Ohhhhhh wow… thank makes sense. I can’t speak freely because that’s a huge spoiler if I do but I see what you’re saying if you don’t do it in order you will be locked out? 😳wow that’s kinda wild didn’t even think about it until now
😭😭😭dannnggg that’s terrible. I will never get 100 poison resistance then lol thanks for letting me know that makes since because if you can’t poison yourself you can’t get the dps
@@MSenseiHD Yup, and BTW I tried to optimize this build while having 99 poison resistance and IMO scorpion prince is the best for the build cause he can put full bar Poison on enemy, and if you have the legendary curio that ignores enemy bane resistance then the poison is 100% appliable
I have a soak called death sting I use it and poison bane happens instantly. You get it in chapter 4 from the scorpion prince near verdure bridge I got a video on it
I was only able to get a chance to kill the Scorpionlord by taking a stick stand and standing behind a tree near the house. Mark the target, move 2-3 metres away from the tree, charge three focuses and hit, repeat the trick 15-20+ times and the victim is killed.
I didn't have any trouble with him but I have heard horror stories about his fight from friends and subs. But the pillar stance was a great option tho especially with the right staff. I didnt know you could hide behind a tree tho.. kinda cool lol
Clearly explained. Great clips... and that little cleft in the rock to the Left hand of Buddha! Missed that.
