Kick is the best ash, you cannot change my mind.
Lowest fp consumption
It gives you a free stun every time it connects with your opponent
Not if your opponent is a boss
@@IanRedmon it's mostly for pvp
@@lamontejones9498 Tied for lowest with all other ashes (when used with not enough FP)
"alright, who's going to eat my axe?"
Phrasing, monk
Heya Monk, just wanted to express my gratitude for your channel.
You offer a very unique content experience that miraculously mixes education, pvp and entertainment into one concise and interesting package.
I find that many elden ring videos are super bloated with rambling and speculation while yours are informative, to the point and funny.
I look forward to whatever you put out next, especially with dlc looming
Thank you Lad! We desperately need DLC 😭
@@monkwashere testing fists before dlc?!?!?
The first sentence of this made me think it was one of those bot comments ahah
@@tokilladaemon yeah it kinda sounds like one of those “check my bio for a free gift” ones
@@monkwashere Y'know, since you showcased basically every single thing in Elden Ring now, it might actually be time to try and get a kill with bare fists, not bare fists only but just the killing blow perhaps.
That death blight moment was ridiculous.
If you are able to proc it you can pretty much force someone to disconnect by repeatedly backstabbing them with your fists the dude was actually pretty nice about it
@@nebei3740 I meant it more as a funny ridiculous lol
@@nebei3740 It's funny when people use it to turn blues into christmas trees with rainbowstone arrows
Note about the stamps as a Stamp Rat:
You can R1 outta stamps for quicker trades, and specifically with upward cut, it works *really* well as a rollcatch if you're expecting them to roll after a trade, or even a single hit!
...Unless they're lightrolling, but, lightrollers aren't real
I feel like that worked much better in ds3 tho compared to ER
43:53 i love how your opponent all of a sudden just pulls out the fucking flamethrower shield here lmaoooooo
Notable about "Kick": It will break even a Crucible Knight's guard.
Even if it does the shieldbash lol
Kick should have been a character skill instead of a being an ash of war or weapon skill.
@@nayyarrashid4661I agree, even though it was buffed a little since the older games, it just isnt worth losing out ona better ash
1:22:51 you forgot to mention that Spectral Lance will also carry over any buff applied to the weapon it's on. One of the best combo's being Spectral Lance + Black Flame Blade.
I feel like you would get more net watch time if you broke this down into multiple vids based on infusion
Hmm perhaps you’re right. I do have quite a few videos from awhile back that have to do with specific infusions and types of builds if you’re interested tho
No.
That's a terrible idea what's wrong with you
@@monkwasherehe's not right
@@monkwasherei have noticed you don’t do things the easy way, anyways 😭
neal rigger is insane 53:03
😰 maybe try using a different word. Or just don't say "rigger"
Oh my goodness
I wasn't at that point in the video yet I legit thought rigger was a word
@@lidudley3000it is😂
@@v.thirteen5504 wth does that mean
Square Off isn't great for PvP, but it eviscerates bosses. The heavy deals 40 stance damage and has like 200 MV, meaning you get constant stance breaks (one for every 2 AoW that connect) and unload tons of damage for very little FP cost.
Poison Moth Flight is, like, an objectively bad weapon art with few redeeming qualities in combat but... it's still sick as fuck.
For pvp square off may seem mediocre but in pve it's one of the best ashes of war in the entire game because of it's absolutely monstrous stance damage(30 stance damage on the light attack and 40 on the heavy), while costing little fp and still doing great damage. In fact in pve it's objectively better than unsheathe other than being just a little slower, the light attack alone does the same poise damage as unsheathe heavy while costing only 40% of the fp and probably doing similar damage. The heavy attack still costs less fp than even unsheathe light attack while doing more damage and poise damage than unsheathe heavy.
Hey Monk! Love your vids and you’re often my sleep aid, it’s like having a pal in the room enjoying elden ring while you doze off 😂. Just wanted to say as someone who relies on long content for work and sleep seeing an hour long vid from you made my day! Keep up the amazing work! ❤
the most disappointing part about vacuum slice isn't even the damage or the fact it'll only land due to mere luck (or free-aiming it to predict where the opponent will roll), but rather the fact that it has like 2-3 different variations that are all just better than it in every way, even the unique gargoyle greatsword has a better version cause it has a life drain effect like black fire or destined death
I think waves of darkness on an int build is my new favourite aow just having a 1 shot trading tool as a mage is insane lure them in with spam then hit them with the gtf away or die button
This content is literally so good. You testing every imaginable asset to the game is incredibly helpful and the information you give is really useful. And on top of that I just have a good time watching. Huge fan!
Congrats on 40k man!
Awesome vid. Thank you!
That deathblight overkill combo during the Shield Bash segment tho
They misled us a bit my making raptor of the mists a "keen" ash of war, when heavy infused pickaxes or rusted anchors are what it was clearly designed to be used on.
The only other weapons its useful on being ugs and greatspears supprts this theory
Hey man i ve been watching your videos for 3 days now and they are so helpful and amusing. Keep up the good work ❤
Why didn’t I get notified😭 I’ve been waiting for your next video. I was wondering what the next thing was, and of course you made it as difficult as possible by having them all in one😂 I love your long videos man, keep going, you’re amazing
Just made a big bowl of chili, this is just what I needed to watch while I eat, thanks!
Hey monk! Big fan of your pvp videos and it's cool how committed you are to trying out pretty much... everything lol. When you do eventually finish covering EVERYTHING, I think it'd be cool to see some sort of rankings, maybe for the coolest weapons to use, or some gimmicky / themed builds? Just a couple of ideas I'm throwing out.
Great quality content! Vids like this are really helpful for a casual player like me.
Monk, if you want glintstone pebble to go actually insane, PLEASE use it on clayman's harpoon
most underrated elden ring youtuber, i found you a few days ago and you have easily become my favorite ER content creator, and i don't even play that much PvP
Love the videos and I love long videos like this!
Crash shield is also pretty good on the barricade shield (i think that's what it's called), since it has innate bleed on it.
Spinning slash on the base twinblade is amazing for pvp. It catches rolls every single time because the twinblades do multihits
For the Golden Land ash of war if you slap it on the Butchering Knife you also trigger the weapon's passive effect that regens 1% health on every projectile that lands, trade-fests are disgustingly good with it
I love the BFT ash. I have a build based on it. i love how it basically stun locks enemies. I was able to wreck Malenia first try with it last night. By the time the second form cinematic ended, she was already down to 3/4 health because the Black Flame just kept burning her. I dont know the exact time on it, but it was under 3 minutes. My physic was still active after the fight.
Flame of the redmanes poise has been nerfed into the ground.
My mannnnn I love these videos
1:09:03 Sacred Order and Shared Order do stack with each other in case you want to obliterate a Deathbird, sadly along with the Golden Vow ash they are the most nerfed buffs in PvP.
Ok now I want to do a melee sorcery themed spell section just for some up close casting goodness.
Heya monk, great vid! I gotta throw out a word for an easily missed gem that's way more fun that it has any right to be though - square off. Two things you missed about square off - specifically things that takes it from "vanilla, and kinda meh" to "oh dear, that's slightly terrifying"; you can roll while you're in stance, and the sheer amount of stance damage it does.
First, rolling - that's right, you can take the stance, dodge a few times into whatever position is most oppressive, or to avoid a trade, and then snuggle someone with a friendly hello out of the roll that comes out alarmingly quickly.
Second, it's hard to tell in PvP, but the stance pressure from square off is ridiculous. 30 for light, 40 for heavy - in comparison, the stance pressure that got Flame of the Redmanes nerfed was 30. It's honestly more comparable to giant hunt on a colossal than it is to anything else; you can stance break the trolls and crows in mountaintop of the giants, with about two good hits from a light attack square off.
I've been having way more fun with this one than I expected recently, and it's one that's really easy to sleep on because it just doesn't seem to stand out until the first time you break a dragon's kneecaps with it.
I personally really like poison moth flight. Pretty much all of my PvP experience is from BEING invaded, and while it can be a bleed build with extra steps, allow me to phrase it differently: it's a bleed build with D.O.T. It's great for putting the pressure on players who are aggressive and for drawing out panic rolls (espevially if they survive the first poison moth hit)
It has a slight silver lining. If you count the poison duration, you can get the poise dmg overtime and potentially land the poison moth flight for full damage.
There is 1 other category left other than main categories which is Tools that have 4 damaging item(Wraith calling bell,Omen bairn,Regal omen bairn,Ancestral infant's head) and there is shileds too if you count maybe armors too
I don't get why vow of the indomitable would be good, being able to eat any attack if you can react is already just how rolling works, no?
He’s slowly getting more and more insane with every video
cheating in arenas is crazy 💀
Sword dance is the weapon art of the follower saber called prying wedge, and funnily enough I keep forgetting it doesn't guard break in this game like it does in Ds3
KSKXNENSJWKSISJ the vacuum slice interaction felt like a cartoon scene when he was turning to the screen to talk abt it while the other dude was just watching lol
Vacuum slice is good if you
1. Predict your opponent and don’t make it obvious what your next move is
2. Free aim it as it’s area of affect becomes much bigger if you do so.
I have a heavy nagakiba build using blood tax, icon shield, bull goat talisman, rot wing, godskin cloth, and alex jar. This is my faith healer build I call Inevitability. I also pair this with poweretance great stars and jump attack for big bonks.
I just find vaccume slash a funny melee trade tool. Used to have a weird bug where sometimes if you hit someone who was above you (normally on stairs) where you would see them start kinda siesuring as you hit them repeatedly for the whole of the hit ox duration. Normally was a oneshot. Idk if it's fixed since I haven't played with it in a while.
With proper timing Stamp Upward Cut can roll catch after a crouching poke with Colossal Swords. Mostly with the GUGS and Zweihander because of how absurd their range is. You really shouldn't use it on anything else since Colossal Swords provide way more hyper armor than the lighter weapon classes that can use it. Also it's just fun launching other players into the air.
Stamp Sweep in particular is fantastic for Cold, Poison and Bleed infusions. On Colossal Swords in particular their build is so high you will generally get a guaranteed status proc if the first part of the attack connects because it has that much stagger potential.
I still don't understand why Stamp was split into two different ashes. Honestly it would have been fine being a Stance like AoW like Unsheathe and Square Off. And one more tip, after initiating the Stamp with either variant you can use a standard R1 for some solid mix up.
Don't discount Kick. It isn't just for breaking through shields. If you land a raw Kick the other player will get staggered no matter how much poise they have. You can see it as the "Honest Man's Storm Stomp" but unlike Storm Stomp you don't have to keep track of phantom hits or whether the other player(s) have more than 100 poise. They will get staggered and be open for a free R1 just like Storm Stomp.
I love your vids and your style. Spectral Lance for the win!
I would buff Spinning strikes by letting it deflect projectiles during the startup as well as the follow-ups and give it hyperarmor on its follow-ups
Can’t wait to the dlc to drop, I’m looking for to more monk videos fighting with the cool looking dlc weapons 😊
Yooo monk dropped a hour and a half video letssss goooo 🙏🫡
39:45 storm stomp can be poised through if you have 101 poise and maybe even a bit less if you have a colossal weapon then the hyper armor might help with tanking it too
The carian retaliation parry can hyper armour it, I'm not sure why.
Poison Moth Flight turns poison builds into bleed builds with extra steps, and I love it.
Bloodhound step works great on heavy weapons like the rotten great axe in my view
It's only on the rotten great axe since it's my favorite
the amount of light rollers in the video is crazy
Trolls Roar is one of my favorites in PvE.
It is bullshit the heavy follow-up isn’t guaranteed
4:30 dont wanna be THAT guy, but if you played dark souls too you definetly seen this, as a famous move of the boss Artorias. And i love so much they made it an ash of war in ER
edit: 8:59 that also is a move from a DS boss
Every time i see a new video from you i think "damn" because how in the hell do you have so much patience to do every weapon class, incantation, sorcery and Ashes of war
bros becoming pvp rusty
Vacuum slice could be good for roll catches, hitting both the sword and the projectile cpuld do decent damage
Can't wait to see him remake all of these when the dlc drops
i’m here for all of this, L2 the world
at 50:15 if you put spinning slash on a reaper scyth and then put blood flame on it before using the ash n you have one hell of a blander
No Skill Ash of War is pretty op try it sometime
Someone please get this man his DLC
I used to rock sword dance on a guardian sword spear, twas filthy
Think kick confirms an r1 on colossal swords, and probably other colossal too
1 and a half hour video. You mad man.
Also try out spinning weapon on scythes, or something big - its actually pretty good
33:57 SPLIT LEAF GREATSWORD MY BELOVED I THOUGHT THEY FORGOT TO PUT YOU IN ELDEN RING
Kick combos into a lot of attacks. A lot of them. I surprised you didnt even give it a try lol.
cragblade buffing animation does damage
Thank you daddy monk
The absolute fear in your voice when makako pulled out the fire breath shield
Charge Forth is honestly in my Top 5 Aow, I love it on Twinblade. I just wish we could put it on Ultras or Greatswords...
My complete Top 5 list from 1 to 5 is:
1. Waves of Darkness
2. Giant Hunt
3. Charge Forth
4. Piercing Fang
5. Barbaric Roar
It isn't consistent, but fun prayerfull strike fact. You heal regardless of your infusion, and it has decent physical values and hyper armor made for trading. If you can't already see where this is going infuse pickaxe or anchor for max phys damage on your build, run spear talisman, laugh.
I like how phantom slash broke the net code with phantom packet burst
41:24 vacuum slice 600 damage “terrible”
56:36 flame or redmane 600 damage “not bad” 😂😂
35:27 "just wait 'till you see me knock somebody up with this" ...um wat
The Neal Rigger lol
I mean with poison moth flight if you know your opponent has bolus you can get the dmg before they can cure it
Roderika in the background just taking notes between matches
Vacuum slice is really weird, it needs a buff. more damage, and a faster casting time. It can be used, and i do like using it but it isnt great. Also love the iron greatsword it is one of my favorite weapons.
Edit
Dunno why i didnt add this before, but its good for stunning mages. And it scales with quality only, not the weapon damage, which means the damage only increases with more str and dex.
hello best youtuber deserves more praise
Should have given z"vaccum slash" a gravity effect to pull people in.
You could try every grease
At the storm blade chapter where do you get that omen great sword it looks like Tojis sword from jjk and I wanna use it for a build
are you ash or are you war, and ash said... nah id war
deep.
Spoken like a true Elden lord
Done so good I think my eyes had a stroke trying to comprehend it
I'm mad that we can't equip the parry ash of war on katanas
except for the wishy-washy katana
8:56 what Amor was bro wearing my personal opinion he looked 🔥
It really is super disappointing to me how light we are on elemental and status ashes of war but then something like holy gets a bunch. Especially lightning which is objectively sick, at least there are a fair amount of skill versions
While using the gravitas ash I think that cheater might have been using unseen form a spell that does as said
I’m new to your channel, so I’m wondering how you’re respeccing so often? Can you infinitely respec in PvP or do you just have a ton of larval tears
He's probably turning off anticheat, using the Hexinton cheat table to give himself lots of larval tears (or using the script that lets you open the respec menu directly) and then restarting the game in online mode.
Be careful with using cheat tables, though. It only works offline with anticheat disabled, but if you go online with glitched / edited stats, you run the risk of being banned. My general advice is to only spawn items and not directly edit any character stats.
13:06 wasnt war cry buffed to last longer than 20 seconds? nice video btw
I have a question, I see you have both the rotten winged insignia and millicent's prosthesis, are you playing on new game plus?
Most likely he got his gear from someone online.
It's not hard to play in new game plus I have several characters in ng + 3and 4
THEY WERE CALLED PENICILLIN BECAUSE THEY WERE AN ACCIDENT 😂😂😂😂😂😂
what is your armor, I like it a lot
"thug shaker" is crazy
Get this man in a Video with Rusty
