Sorry if someone else has mentioned this already, but there's a good explanation why the darts work on imps and other stone creatures. They're Golems too. Anything brought to life by magic is a golem.
I could see Frenzy stones being pretty useful in PvP. Get Branded. Invade. Use a Madness / Frenzy build and throw a few stones on the ground. Bait the enemy into pushing. Watch him Frenzy as you heal. Could be situational, but if done correctly, and the stars aline, I could see this being hilariously fun.
It is 100%funny 😂😂 my new favorite way to kill afk farmers drop a few stones and sit with them. Edit: thanks for the likes. Side note with the new patch harder to pull off. Makes it extra funny when you do. Lol
Maybe for low level PvP. You can't know if someone has done the madness quest ever, so you could heal them. Earlier the better when they don't have access to Capital sewers.
Man, the Kukri throwing knifes. So good for high DEX build, especially ones focused on bleed, or even a Quality style build. They do massive dmg, and hit the bleed proc surprisingly easy. Great range. I keep them mapped to my pouches and use them all the time.
Funny because someone used the frenzy stone on me yesterday and I didn’t know what it was in pvp but because I’m scarred by the 3 fingers already I took no damage, he was just staring at me as I was standing in it and healing
Volcano Pots are underrated. They may as well be called Cheese Pots because they’re exceptional for cheesing lots of large enemies. If they get stuck on a doorway and keep charging into it each pot will do like 4-600 damage
I’m so glad they added reusable items in this game! Feels like a really cool callback to the hunter tools in Bloodborne! Too bad they don’t scale with arcane as well ;)
@@aishaali9771 there are always a couple that have a limited scope like transporting you back to your last bonfire etc, but the only ones I remember that have combat use are in BB and ER.
@@aishaali9771 I don't remember any reusable consumables in Sekiro but there have always been consumables that trivialize certain enemy encounters. In Sekiro, Fistfuls of Ash could be thrown at enemies to get a free stagger. Bloodborne had the Shaman Bone Blade that could make enemies fight on your side and the Pungent Blood Cocktail could be used to completely distract beasts and get free hits on them. DS3 had White Branches that let you shape shift into an object and walk by enemies. All of those games aside from Sekiro had some sort of decoy/bait consumable like Soul Remains that could be thrown to distract enemies momentarily. From Software games always had consumables that made life easier. Most people just ignored them. I don't know if it's because item description reading is required to learn these interactions or if it's because of the stupid gatekeeper mentality that shuns people for using smart tactics but most veteran players never even bother with consumables.
Heads up for that headpiece: *The only one that drops the headpiece is the one seen in the video* (8:24). And it's a guaranteed drop. Don't spend an hour killing the wrong one just because somebody generalized that "it drops from the singing enemies".
@@shinydmike8490 The video evidence is really all you need here. Any drop that shows up without you looting a corpse is not only a guaranteed drop, but it also means that enemy won't be coming back. That's just how the game works.
Yes, I finally got it yesterday. I also do not think it is a guaranteed drop because I was making the rounds killing those ladies. I was killed at that area when I first started farming because I somehow aggro-ed the red wolf and did not know it. Maybe she did drop it the first time and I had to go through a reset period? At least the time was not a total waste as I was able to acquire enough runes to level up a few more times.
Skumnut recently beat Elden Ring using just the ancestral spirit head. He had, well, a terrible time but it's clearly not meant to be a primary weapon lol
Wraith Calling Bell. Seriously overlooked! My pyromancer LOVES this, it's got insane range, excellent tracking, low FP cost, and with the Ritual Sword Talisman it'll actually do respectable damage too. 2 can kill a Godrick Soldier at the Gatefront grace, and you can usually fire 5-6 off before any even hit, and then the enemy get's aggro and runs headlong into all of them, usually a free 600 damage on any overworld foe. Flying creatures get smashed by these, these can be used on the bats hanging off of roofs, the first will hit it, the second will stagger it and make it fall, and the first will do a beeline down to the ground with the bat and hit it on the ground. 7FP is a pretty low FP cost, and yes, they do less damage than say a fireball, but they don't suffer from low range, can be spammed easily, are amazing on horseback as you can face any direction and launch them, where some spells will be forced to go in a forwards facing direction. You can just ride your horse and trot away from foes while launching a stream of wraiths. Most enemies will not dodge these balls, and if they do they go into overdrive and jump about nonstop as you spam them and they home in and hit them anyway. I've finished many bosses off with a sneaky one of these to get the final hit in from safety. Need resources? Go hunt animals with this! Deer, birds, goats, the weird cute things, they all get one shot and homed in on hard. About to face a large group? The impact of a wraith on a foe will make said foe run at you, while all those around him all focus in on the point of impact and stand about while their comrade is now far enough away to be taken out without them noticing. Goes great with summons as you can say, have your spirit wolves around you, can aggro an enemy with this, and the enemy will run at you and the moment they aggro the wolves will also, and they'll run in and intercept the threat. Facing an NPC invader? This is a great zoning tool, as you can fire a bunch off and either charge a strong spell behind them, or run in with them all and attack. Try it out if you've got limited long range capabilities. Sure, you can use a bow, or sorceries, or throwing knives, but I find myself using this non-stop, it's so safe and doesn't cost souls or resources like arrows and throwing knives do. With a bow, you can usually level it up to take threats out alone with it, this is used more like a side arm; think Luigi's fireballs or Falco's laser in Smash Bros, these will flinch enemies and they'll have to deal with it.
@@R1oTer Regal is good for burst damage, but at 50fp per use, it won't get very far on a low Mind build. It'd def be better against bosses and large foes to get in big damage fast,, but against regular mobs, creatures, and enemies at max range, it's hard to go past the baby bell (not a bairn pun) which can one or 2 shot most soldiers with my setup described 🍩🍩
@@BossBoomBox LV UP. My FP is only at lv 60 ( 350 FP)..but i use a lot of magic or weapons that has FP consumption. The D-pad is sort of a cluster f$#K...having a LONG RANGE attack in my flask menu helps. it's like having a Rock sling...without having to swap between incantation/staff..I use mostly incantation from HEALING/CURING/BUFF.. I might use a bolt or blot of gransax for MID range.. I would like to use loretta bow for LONG RANGE...but swapping between staff/incantation...then cycle through spells, messes me up.. The Regal solves that for me...All my spells use lots of FP. 8 flask is plenty. I could allocate more flask to FP....I seldom use HP flask ...I dont like the flask drinking animations or getting wacked while I drink healing flask. My magic heals alot more than my max out flask. HP flask are just for back up...( it's just Habits or the way i combat) I could go 10 FP/4HP flask. I havnt had the need to.
The reason the darts work on imps and the tomb guardians is that they are all golems, per se. They are all magical constructs. I'd do some more testing on anything animated by magic and see if it works on them too, maybe the marionettes?
The Skull AOE Item is great on a Mimic, it uses it pretty often and mostly in pretty decent situations and its veeery effective Aggro Tool. Every Tick resets the Aggro to your mimic with this Item.
PSA: for anyone who didn’t know, you can use mohg’s shackle (or even margit’s) to not only reveal hidden walls from a very long range but it also allows you to trigger those annoying fire-breathing pillars from a safe distance. This can be especially useful in the catacomb where you find watchdogs in front of the entrance to these pillars, so you can go past them, into the opening to the right then use the shackle to trap the watchdogs for an easy kill. (Forgot the name of the catacombs but they’re definitely end-game, probably in consecrated snowfields?)
I like them also. They can be very very helpful in scary dark caves Ł0Ł I'm sure you know about using rainbow stones to check for safe drop/ fall distances..
Another thing about the spirit head is the first part of the attack, before it hits the floor and turns into mist, does huge amounts of stagger damage.
@@MasterChiefPettyOfficer By progressing Dung Eaters questline up to the point where he invades you outside of the city BEFOR having bought a shrimp from Blackguard
@@MasterChiefPettyOfficer You can progress it up to the point where he invades you, defeat the invasion and then he will be in the goal asking for seedbed curses. But without the seedbed curse from blackguard, you can't get all 5 seedbed curses that dungeater wants... But blackguard can survive xD
Cool thing is, with a lot of these type of items, if you have them equiped on your hotbar, your mimic can cast them too. My mimic keeps healing me by dropping stones in boss fights.
In boss fights you can use 2 of each healing stones when you aktivate the mimik when you have it on quick slots so when you put your stones on the mimik ones you can reach 120 hps and with with some gear and incarnation and talisman you can get round about 130 140 hps

I think it would have been important to include that by becoming Lord of Frenzied Flame you lock your ending of the game unless you use a specific item from a specific quest in which you choose a specific ending and then use that item in a specific end game boss arena.
@@TickleMyPickleOkay But there are still many new players watching these videos. A lot of people already know about all of the consumables in this video, that doesn't mean people don't.
With all videos that are, best build, best farm.....This is kind of one that i want now, Interesting and rare items, weapons, places....Strange things on the game, Nice vid!!!
One of the most useful videos I’ve seen on this game, I knew with all the systems in this game that you could do some awesome stuff in terms of buffing up and preparing for fights, and pretty much every enemy has a weakness and all you have to do is some research and tests and you can become a force to be reckoned with.
Ancestral Spirit Head: Nothing like spending 50+ FP to deal with two imps in a corridor while trading damage instead of just hitting them and not taking damage. Now that's value.
You know, with all these channels putting out "OP SUCH-N-SUCH BREAKS GAME" videos, it's so refreshing to see one that actually follows through with the promise. Subbed
The Regal Omen Bairn is another extremely useful tool. It's like the Executioner Gloves from Bloodborne. It's potency is also increased by the Omen set.
That isn't extremely useful at all for 50fp there are way better bangs for the bucks. And not to mention the thing takes forever to use. They didnt speak on it for a reason. "Cause it sucks"
Lol you gotta remove those items and spells from your loadout then if it’s a problem! I recommend putting uplifting aromatic perfume in your hotbar so your mimic uses them in fights!
On the healing part I think raw meat dumplings are quite useful, while they do poison you they heal by a lot and lets be honest poison in this game is not as painful as in other soulsborne games :P also you could pair it with poison curing boluses and voileá additional healing flasks ;)
You can't infinitely craft the bewitching branches. Sacramental buds don't respawn nor any of the lilies, the buds are even worse as they are also required for the rot boluses.
I’m pretty sure you can farm both items, the Lillies from Cleanrot Knights and the Buds from the big sludge monsters at the Writheblood Ruins + Mohgwyn Palace.
@@farpasmasterfarpador9092 Yeah, though I think it's a bit silly that they made farming for materials awful, whilst you've got literal one shot builds that need 1 weapon to do.
It’s actually super cool that crystal darts make enemies who are sentient stones basically the golems and the burial gargoyles and watchdogs attack eachother that it messes with their sentient nature wonder if it works on any other enemies that are moving stones
Thanks for producing and posting this. That Boiled Crab is a handy body-buff to use in PvP as it does not use up FP as do some incantation body-buffs, allowing one to save their FP for weapon Ashes of War.
great information much obliged, i paused the vid and immediately went to get the ancestral spirit head on my mage lol, cheers for mentioning about the warming stones as well as i didnt realise they healed that much and have been selling them on every chr
Another great vid! There are so many items in game to help players & yet many seem to focus on immediate combat weapons/spells. Defensive buff items help tremendously with certain bosses & I often change my talisman set up from aggressive to defensive on a situational basis. Not using all the ‘tools’ provided can result in a depressingly brutal wake call as you go from “I got this sussed now” to “WTF”!
I'm not even past the first tip in the game and this is already immensely helpful! Commander Niall was one of the few fights I'd have to summon help in to make it go easier but now that I know you can bewitch the summons, that's no longer an issue for me. Thanks much. :)
The use of Bewitching Branch in this video was funny as the ogres hit each other when they attack if they're in each others way without the use of the item. Very informative video.
I just used Crystal darts on the three golems just outside/to the north of the capital Rampart… Worked like a charm… Thanks so much for this guide, it really helped :)
Something to keep in mind is that the warming stones specifically say they're for allies, but actually affect enemies too. They're not good for healing during bosses and many other suggested uses I've seen mentioned
Do you need to kill Mohg to get the cookbook from Gideon? I've been everywhere there including in his boss room (didn't kill him though) and to all areas and graces but the dialogue option isn't there yet.
I was right. I went to Lehndyl. I had to beat the draconic Sentinel. But once I got in and I saw the city appear on my screen all I did was go back and it was open dialogue. Got the cookbook. I have not beaten mohg.
Thanks for the video. I have already been using all of these but did not realize the Shining Horned Headband even existed so I went farming. And farming. And farming.... Damn, does it really exist or are you teasing us? Okay, I trust you. I farmed over four hours and did not get it. I did manage to acquire about 4-million runes and enough fur armor and Greathorn Hammers to build my own army! I had to laugh at the enormous quantity of Thin Beast Bones these folks drop because they obviously do NOT have thin bones. They must harvest them from the local deer. It took me 48 minutes to farm two Magma Blades so I figured one Shining Horned Headband should be easy. Hhmmm, why do I always assume anything will be easy? Oh, I did not know the darts could turn the imps as well as gargoyles but should have guessed!
It really is the best emote to me. It just sums up how u feel playing this game and how you'd imagine your character feels like just laying down exhausted after a hard fight lol.
The pizza door sounds too silly for what the door is actually for. Flame of frenzy always had a type of eery creepy feel to it, and "pizza door" takes away from that. Lol. They did a great job of making frenzy flame very very creepy and eldritch like. So good.
@@julianadams3710 in ds you could invade solo hosts but invasions in this game are harder for the invader. And invasions are fun and a good challenge. Alot of my favorite moments of these games came from invasions.
@@georgegmoney8334 Good for you. That doesn’t mean the game needs to work a certain way to keep just you entertained. I think the seeds were fun to use because I also think invaders deserve whatever happens to them. Doesn’t my entertainment matter just as much?
I used the magic darts all through my first playthrough and absolutely loved them. Another thing I found the darts particularly good at is PvP, they come out very quickly and with the scaling can do some surprisingly good damage!
250 hours in and I greatly appreciate you informing me about the warming stones.. free heals.. lol now that I'm past all the toughest bosses. Which are the last 6..
I have always felt that I was not using all my items and recipes to the fullest, especially high level. This video gave me some ideas on how to put some of them to use.
to be fair about the witching branch, i would have never thought that boss fights would have ads vulnerable to the branch. but the nox castle fight was the first one to come to mind on using it before the clip came up lol
You can use the healing stones (any aoe healing effect) to damage and kill some enemies. For example those multi-armed teleporting knights that are otherwise hard to deal with.
There's this crazy thing with Bloodblade and Fire's deadly sin where making contact with an enemy causes bleed build up. It works well when pair with a heavy weapon that can stun while touching them and adding to the bleed gauge at an alarming rate.
@@jamesn0va Nope. Considering rivers of blood, moonveil and other crazy cheap weapons and techniques like the carian invisible glintblade glitch, I'm ok with this. After the countless time some newb either uses the aforementioned or ganks you with said weapons, I'll take bleed on touch any day.
This is what I like, the game being hard, but having weaknesses and solutions if you wish. Also, just do the Vare quest (2:42). You only need to do 3 invasions, no winning necessary (my first one, he died, my second and third, I got ganked). You'll be able to farm insane amounts of runes there. When you find a grace on a cliff next to a bunch of froggies and a cliff showing a giant chicken, you can use a bow to shoot the chicken and make it run off for 11K or kill all the froggies for about 30K. The Stargazer sword by Radahn's skill is best for the froggies. (NOTE: there are no enemy name sin the game unless you get their loot, I just call them "froggies.")
3:29 Notice that it says "Long ago, it is said that a golem crafter employed a similar crystal too." Golems refer to the stone enemies in general (Giant golems, stone imps in catacombs, even the watchdog boss enemies, all are made of stone).
Ancestral Spirit Head is also very useful in areas with invisible bridges. You can cover the path with flames and know where to walk easily!
make the rainbow stone arrows. they work amazingly.
Qqq
For me I just drop(use) the rainbow stone/glowing stone, not only serves as a mark, but also a measurement for checking heights of a clip, just like ol' times
You can use the horn helmwt to booat ita damage
Hoarfrost stomp ash of war works great as well

I’ve done this and tbh the build up is too slow to really be meaningful. Still a useful doesn’t hurt to throw down tho
Man, the Kukri throwing knifes. So good for high DEX build, especially ones focused on bleed, or even a Quality style build. They do massive dmg, and hit the bleed proc surprisingly easy. Great range. I keep them mapped to my pouches and use them all the time.
Oh yeah? I heard they scaled with strength and hadn’t tried them on my dex build. I wonder if the bleed build up scales with dex or arcane?
Can those be crafted?
@@joshmay2944 they have A scaling with STR and S scaling with DEX. I’m not sure about the bleed buildup, but I think it just has a base value.
@@jayviktor6130 No, but you can buy them from the merchant at the Castle Morne Rampart site of grace. Unlimited supply.
@@rhebbhulett good enough thank you
150 hours in and now i learn there is a lobster cheff knight character. I keep getting amazed how big ER is.
Funny because someone used the frenzy stone on me yesterday and I didn’t know what it was in pvp but because I’m scarred by the 3 fingers already I took no damage, he was just staring at me as I was standing in it and healing
Volcano Pots are underrated. They may as well be called Cheese Pots because they’re exceptional for cheesing lots of large enemies. If they get stuck on a doorway and keep charging into it each pot will do like 4-600 damage
This channel has been infinitely useful for elden ring knowledge and i thank you for the daily uploads
I’m so glad they added reusable items in this game! Feels like a really cool callback to the hunter tools in Bloodborne! Too bad they don’t scale with arcane as well ;)
Are there no reusable items in dark souls or sekiro?
@@aishaali9771 there are always a couple that have a limited scope like transporting you back to your last bonfire etc, but the only ones I remember that have combat use are in BB and ER.
@@joshmay2944 ds1 had fire pots, think they had darts, and shit you could toss.
@@aishaali9771 I don't remember any reusable consumables in Sekiro but there have always been consumables that trivialize certain enemy encounters. In Sekiro, Fistfuls of Ash could be thrown at enemies to get a free stagger. Bloodborne had the Shaman Bone Blade that could make enemies fight on your side and the Pungent Blood Cocktail could be used to completely distract beasts and get free hits on them. DS3 had White Branches that let you shape shift into an object and walk by enemies. All of those games aside from Sekiro had some sort of decoy/bait consumable like Soul Remains that could be thrown to distract enemies momentarily. From Software games always had consumables that made life easier. Most people just ignored them. I don't know if it's because item description reading is required to learn these interactions or if it's because of the stupid gatekeeper mentality that shuns people for using smart tactics but most veteran players never even bother with consumables.
@@TitoMcFadden you have the spiritfall items.
Heads up for that headpiece: *The only one that drops the headpiece is the one seen in the video* (8:24). And it's a guaranteed drop. Don't spend an hour killing the wrong one just because somebody generalized that "it drops from the singing enemies".
Don’t think it’s guaranteed
@@shinydmike8490 The video evidence is really all you need here. Any drop that shows up without you looting a corpse is not only a guaranteed drop, but it also means that enemy won't be coming back. That's just how the game works.
@@Asterra2 I got my antlers from a different one in about 5 minutes lol
Yes, I finally got it yesterday. I also do not think it is a guaranteed drop because I was making the rounds killing those ladies. I was killed at that area when I first started farming because I somehow aggro-ed the red wolf and did not know it. Maybe she did drop it the first time and I had to go through a reset period?
At least the time was not a total waste as I was able to acquire enough runes to level up a few more times.
That's not true. The other ones do drop it as well. I have like 3 of them
I’ve been using the ancestral infant head nonstop since I got one! It’s a lot of fun, glad it’s getting the attention it deserves
yooooo i just got this thing and had no idea what i would ever use it for. glad we got good elden ring youtubers
Skumnut recently beat Elden Ring using just the ancestral spirit head. He had, well, a terrible time but it's clearly not meant to be a primary weapon lol
Wraith Calling Bell. Seriously overlooked!
My pyromancer LOVES this, it's got insane range, excellent tracking, low FP cost, and with the Ritual Sword Talisman it'll actually do respectable damage too. 2 can kill a Godrick Soldier at the Gatefront grace, and you can usually fire 5-6 off before any even hit, and then the enemy get's aggro and runs headlong into all of them, usually a free 600 damage on any overworld foe.
Flying creatures get smashed by these, these can be used on the bats hanging off of roofs, the first will hit it, the second will stagger it and make it fall, and the first will do a beeline down to the ground with the bat and hit it on the ground.
7FP is a pretty low FP cost, and yes, they do less damage than say a fireball, but they don't suffer from low range, can be spammed easily, are amazing on horseback as you can face any direction and launch them, where some spells will be forced to go in a forwards facing direction. You can just ride your horse and trot away from foes while launching a stream of wraiths. Most enemies will not dodge these balls, and if they do they go into overdrive and jump about nonstop as you spam them and they home in and hit them anyway. I've finished many bosses off with a sneaky one of these to get the final hit in from safety.
Need resources? Go hunt animals with this! Deer, birds, goats, the weird cute things, they all get one shot and homed in on hard.
About to face a large group? The impact of a wraith on a foe will make said foe run at you, while all those around him all focus in on the point of impact and stand about while their comrade is now far enough away to be taken out without them noticing. Goes great with summons as you can say, have your spirit wolves around you, can aggro an enemy with this, and the enemy will run at you and the moment they aggro the wolves will also, and they'll run in and intercept the threat.
Facing an NPC invader? This is a great zoning tool, as you can fire a bunch off and either charge a strong spell behind them, or run in with them all and attack.
Try it out if you've got limited long range capabilities. Sure, you can use a bow, or sorceries, or throwing knives, but I find myself using this non-stop, it's so safe and doesn't cost souls or resources like arrows and throwing knives do. With a bow, you can usually level it up to take threats out alone with it, this is used more like a side arm; think Luigi's fireballs or Falco's laser in Smash Bros, these will flinch enemies and they'll have to deal with it.
i prefer the (regal)omen bairn
@@R1oTer Regal is good for burst damage, but at 50fp per use, it won't get very far on a low Mind build. It'd def be better against bosses and large foes to get in big damage fast,, but against regular mobs, creatures, and enemies at max range, it's hard to go past the baby bell (not a bairn pun) which can one or 2 shot most soldiers with my setup described 🍩🍩
@@BossBoomBox LV UP. My FP is only at lv 60 ( 350 FP)..but i use a lot
of magic or weapons that has FP consumption. The D-pad is sort of a cluster f$#K...having a LONG RANGE attack in my flask menu helps.
it's like having a Rock sling...without having to swap between incantation/staff..I use mostly incantation from HEALING/CURING/BUFF..
I might use a bolt or blot of gransax for MID range..
I would like to use loretta bow for LONG RANGE...but swapping between staff/incantation...then cycle through spells, messes me up..
The Regal solves that for me...All my spells use lots of FP. 8 flask is plenty.
I could allocate more flask to FP....I seldom use HP flask ...I dont like
the flask drinking animations or getting wacked while I drink healing flask.
My magic heals alot more than my max out flask. HP flask are just for back up...( it's just Habits or the way i combat) I could go 10 FP/4HP flask.
I havnt had the need to.
Crystal darts also work on Marionnette soldiers and avionettes
Anything that's a construct
.....Oh damn 🥹
The reason the darts work on imps and the tomb guardians is that they are all golems, per se. They are all magical constructs. I'd do some more testing on anything animated by magic and see if it works on them too, maybe the marionettes?

The Skull AOE Item is great on a Mimic, it uses it pretty often and mostly in pretty decent situations and its veeery effective Aggro Tool. Every Tick resets the Aggro to your mimic with this Item.
PSA: for anyone who didn’t know, you can use mohg’s shackle (or even margit’s) to not only reveal hidden walls from a very long range but it also allows you to trigger those annoying fire-breathing pillars from a safe distance. This can be especially useful in the catacomb where you find watchdogs in front of the entrance to these pillars, so you can go past them, into the opening to the right then use the shackle to trap the watchdogs for an easy kill. (Forgot the name of the catacombs but they’re definitely end-game, probably in consecrated snowfields?)
I love using the glow stones to drop in the caves, they are much brighter than the lantern.
I like them also. They can be very very helpful in scary dark caves Ł0Ł
I'm sure you know about using rainbow stones to check for safe drop/ fall distances..
Another thing about the spirit head is the first part of the attack, before it hits the floor and turns into mist, does huge amounts of stagger damage.

With all videos that are, best build, best farm.....This is kind of one that i want now, Interesting and rare items, weapons, places....Strange things on the game, Nice vid!!!
One of the most useful videos I’ve seen on this game, I knew with all the systems in this game that you could do some awesome stuff in terms of buffing up and preparing for fights, and pretty much every enemy has a weakness and all you have to do is some research and tests and you can become a force to be reckoned with.
Ancestral Spirit Head: Nothing like spending 50+ FP to deal with two imps in a corridor while trading damage instead of just hitting them and not taking damage. Now that's value.
Thank God someone said it
Value is a worthless concept in the game. It might be more fun spending 50+ FP rather than just hitting...games are for fun
Value is not native to the world; it is but a contrivance. All things can be conjoined.
@@KillerMoustache Cowabunga.
Only good in the hands of your mimic really
The crystal dart works on golem type enemies. That’s why it works on Imps and catacomb dogs.
They’re just specific kinds of golems.
obviously
I am amazed how many items from software put in this game to help make it easier
You know, with all these channels putting out "OP SUCH-N-SUCH BREAKS GAME" videos, it's so refreshing to see one that actually follows through with the promise. Subbed
I progressed black guard after the magma wyrm so having him to summon for the wyrm is not super important at least.
The Regal Omen Bairn is another extremely useful tool. It's like the Executioner Gloves from Bloodborne. It's potency is also increased by the Omen set.
That isn't extremely useful at all for 50fp there are way better bangs for the bucks. And not to mention the thing takes forever to use. They didnt speak on it for a reason. "Cause it sucks"
@@ramrodbldm9876 lol yeah it is not “extremely useful” at all
You don't have to summon Blackguard/Bloody Boggart to get him to move to Altus, he'll pop up there as long as you befriended him in Liurnia.
Great video the crystal dart tip was so cool never knew that. I love little hidden game mechanics like that!
Once I got my mimic tear and started using her, I noticed almost all she does is eat boiled crab and cast Terra Magicus lol
Lol you gotta remove those items and spells from your loadout then if it’s a problem! I recommend putting uplifting aromatic perfume in your hotbar so your mimic uses them in fights!
They used to be better. Still really good though. You just have to be really careful with what you equip them with.
Mimic loooves crab. They'll eat it up for sure.
Thanks I needed this because I'm afraid to use consumables afraid they will run out
if you wear the ancestral antlers you do lots more damage with the ancestral infants head
Talisman increases duration as well it's funny af I used this combo for half the game lol fun getting hoards to sit in it with ice storm frost
You can tell who pauses a video to post a comment without watching the whole video (or even a minute or two after).

On the healing part I think raw meat dumplings are quite useful, while they do poison you they heal by a lot and lets be honest poison in this game is not as painful as in other soulsborne games :P also you could pair it with poison curing boluses and voileá additional healing flasks ;)
If you’re a faith user, Flame Cleanse Me is a super cheap reusable rot and poison cure.
"Why am I toxic!"
Will it proc the mushroom crown damage boost and the poison talisman?
@@georgegmoney8334 yeah same as the lord of bloods exultation they proc when the status happens to you.
@@julianadams3710 cool thanks for the info
You can't infinitely craft the bewitching branches. Sacramental buds don't respawn nor any of the lilies, the buds are even worse as they are also required for the rot boluses.
*cough* Flame Cleanse Me
I’m pretty sure you can farm both items, the Lillies from Cleanrot Knights and the Buds from the big sludge monsters at the Writheblood Ruins + Mohgwyn Palace.
@@EldenLordOrvik7790 I think you're right but their drop rates are pretty low
@@farpasmasterfarpador9092 Yeah, though I think it's a bit silly that they made farming for materials awful, whilst you've got literal one shot builds that need 1 weapon to do.
It’s actually super cool that crystal darts make enemies who are sentient stones basically the golems and the burial gargoyles and watchdogs attack eachother that it messes with their sentient nature wonder if it works on any other enemies that are moving stones
I think it works on all of the enemies considered “constructs.”
It doesn't seem to work on the gargoyles, which are made of stones. I think they are the limit unfortunately
Does it work on crystalians? Or marionettes?
The healing stone heals enemies tho, i was fighting the rotten crystalien trio and dropped one of these, they started healing
I feel like it's better to use them out of combat though. I use em while doing co op. I'll plop one down and sit and chill for a bit.
The frenzied flame stone will only heal people with the frenzy flame. Everyone else gets madness. Op af

Thanks for producing and posting this. That Boiled Crab is a handy body-buff to use in PvP as it does not use up FP as do some incantation body-buffs, allowing one to save their FP for weapon Ashes of War.
I've largely ignored crafting stuff in the game but this video helped me see the usefulness. Thanks!
hey cool thing is if you have warimg stone in your hot bar the mimic tear use them all the time so free healing for any build
Genuine question: is the British pronunciation of "catacombs," "catacoombs"? Or is it just a personal quirk?
British person here, yes the longer, "oo," sound is correct. ruclips.net/video/xrGfCnndGS8/видео.html
Pretty much, but in other news ‘golem’ is pronounced go-lem, not gollum - always makes me smile watching these vids.
great information much obliged, i paused the vid and immediately went to get the ancestral spirit head on my mage lol, cheers for mentioning about the warming stones as well as i didnt realise they healed that much and have been selling them on every chr
I've been binging your elden ring videos..I've learned so much. Thank you!!!!
Another great vid! There are so many items in game to help players & yet many seem to focus on immediate combat weapons/spells. Defensive buff items help tremendously with certain bosses & I often change my talisman set up from aggressive to defensive on a situational basis. Not using all the ‘tools’ provided can result in a depressingly brutal wake call as you go from “I got this sussed now” to “WTF”!
This was probably the best video of the last couple weeks. Great info!
I really like you videos. Good explanation, not much filler, and especially very insteresting! I haven't found out about one of these things!
The Shrimp guy progresses only forward when you exausted his dialog AND got the emote laydown from him
I'm not even past the first tip in the game and this is already immensely helpful! Commander Niall was one of the few fights I'd have to summon help in to make it go easier but now that I know you can bewitch the summons, that's no longer an issue for me. Thanks much. :)
It sounds safe to say that crystal darts work on stone enemys.
The use of Bewitching Branch in this video was funny as the ogres hit each other when they attack if they're in each others way without the use of the item. Very informative video.
I just used Crystal darts on the three golems just outside/to the north of the capital Rampart… Worked like a charm… Thanks so much for this guide, it really helped :)
A good combo is meat dumpling, which are faster than flasks, and poison boluses, which cure the poison.
Will this trigger kindred of rot effect at will?
9:19 you could also mess it up a third way if you buy too many lobsters and then do the dungeater quest right after
bruh that baby magic head thing is insane. i was goin thru my inventory saw it tried it, and never looked back
Something to keep in mind is that the warming stones specifically say they're for allies, but actually affect enemies too.
They're not good for healing during bosses and many other suggested uses I've seen mentioned
it's as my DM's foretold! thanks so much, man :) looks like a great, simple workflow, and that latte art wasn't too bad either ;D
Hey man. very informative video. Obviously you put a lot of work and testing into this. Truly appreciated! Thanks!
Do you need to kill Mohg to get the cookbook from Gideon? I've been everywhere there including in his boss room (didn't kill him though) and to all areas and graces but the dialogue option isn't there yet.
Same here
I got to mohg's area through the varre quest option. Maybe you have to go to Lehndyl first and get there from there.
I was right. I went to Lehndyl. I had to beat the draconic Sentinel. But once I got in and I saw the city appear on my screen all I did was go back and it was open dialogue. Got the cookbook. I have not beaten mohg.
@@grogueQ Thankyou for clearing this up. I was wondering if I broke the dialogue but I was just missing some flags.
Wait does joining the frenzy faction keep from getting madness when you use the weapons or someone or something uses it on you?
It offers some resistance but not complete immunity.
Those dumplings helped me a lot. Especially if you have the Cleanse Flame or blouse to negate the poison.
On my 5th play through I’m just finding the fire physics tear and now they’re adding another half of the game. Best game ever made imo.
Frenzy stones are also amazing in PVP for area denial. As long as the invader/host isnt part of Frenzy Flame, it will apply madness to them.
Awesome video! Thanks for the insight.
Awesome vid! Very helpful
really useful!1 didn't even suspect this!
Thanks for the video. I have already been using all of these but did not realize the Shining Horned Headband even existed so I went farming. And farming. And farming.... Damn, does it really exist or are you teasing us? Okay, I trust you. I farmed over four hours and did not get it. I did manage to acquire about 4-million runes and enough fur armor and Greathorn Hammers to build my own army! I had to laugh at the enormous quantity of Thin Beast Bones these folks drop because they obviously do NOT have thin bones. They must harvest them from the local deer. It took me 48 minutes to farm two Magma Blades so I figured one Shining Horned Headband should be easy. Hhmmm, why do I always assume anything will be easy?
Oh, I did not know the darts could turn the imps as well as gargoyles but should have guessed!
Only the enemy shown in video will drop it lol
It really is the best emote to me. It just sums up how u feel playing this game and how you'd imagine your character feels like just laying down exhausted after a hard fight lol.
Oh snap I never knew the head band buffs the ancestral head. Thanks!!!
The pizza door sounds too silly for what the door is actually for. Flame of frenzy always had a type of eery creepy feel to it, and "pizza door" takes away from that. Lol. They did a great job of making frenzy flame very very creepy and eldritch like. So good.

Dude the perfume bottles damage potion is insanely buff and it stacks with jelly shield and golden vow.
I used the magic darts all through my first playthrough and absolutely loved them. Another thing I found the darts particularly good at is PvP, they come out very quickly and with the scaling can do some surprisingly good damage!
They come out at the same speed a throwing knives and fan daggers, the latter which players have been using in PvP since launch
Good video. Did not new about these items and never tried them.

Exremely useful tips; thank you for the great video!
Damn. I am doing my first playthrough and I am frenzed member. This was helpful 😀
to be fair about the witching branch, i would have never thought that boss fights would have ads vulnerable to the branch. but the nox castle fight was the first one to come to mind on using it before the clip came up lol
Thank you ,very useful tips , 😊
I think the bewitching branch was the most internesting. I didn't know about that and I have SOOOO many uses I can think of for them.
Hey man great video what weapons are you using? Thanks.
I actually did not know the frenzied stone doesn’t affect the frenzied. Thank you.
You can use the healing stones (any aoe healing effect) to damage and kill some enemies. For example those multi-armed teleporting knights that are otherwise hard to deal with.
Thanks, I was wondering just that.
Any undead enemy will take damage to hem
Crazy helpful video!
There's this crazy thing with Bloodblade and Fire's deadly sin where making contact with an enemy causes bleed build up. It works well when pair with a heavy weapon that can stun while touching them and adding to the bleed gauge at an alarming rate.
I feel like this is a bug/exploit just like the eclipse shotel death blight interaction with fires deadly sin
it's a glitch. Don't go ruining the pvp experience by using it you pos! lol
This is patched is it not?
@@jamesn0va I think it still works for bleeding people. The death blight thing was patched. I'm not sure though.
@@jamesn0va Nope. Considering rivers of blood, moonveil and other crazy cheap weapons and techniques like the carian invisible glintblade glitch, I'm ok with this. After the countless time some newb either uses the aforementioned or ganks you with said weapons, I'll take bleed on touch any day.
This is what I like, the game being hard, but having weaknesses and solutions if you wish. Also, just do the Vare quest (2:42). You only need to do 3 invasions, no winning necessary (my first one, he died, my second and third, I got ganked). You'll be able to farm insane amounts of runes there. When you find a grace on a cliff next to a bunch of froggies and a cliff showing a giant chicken, you can use a bow to shoot the chicken and make it run off for 11K or kill all the froggies for about 30K. The Stargazer sword by Radahn's skill is best for the froggies. (NOTE: there are no enemy name sin the game unless you get their loot, I just call them "froggies.")
3:29 Notice that it says "Long ago, it is said that a golem crafter employed a similar crystal too." Golems refer to the stone enemies in general (Giant golems, stone imps in catacombs, even the watchdog boss enemies, all are made of stone).
This was an outstanding video. I am about to go jump on Elden Ring to try some of them. Thanks brother.
