I love that there are some katanas in the game without bleed and I quite enjoy the buff this and the Dragon Halberd get. Really hope they add some more weapons with the frost lightning in the DLC.
since we already have a good dragon boss is base game, I hope the dragon of dlc is an apex dragonkin soldier, one with a near perfected form. Obviously artificial dragons in Souls games never go well, but considering ER has a somewhat brighter tone, I hope we can fight one and get new ice lightning incant/weapon
@@gluelake hopes are high dragon kin seem super cool and love all the stuff associated with them. Dragon halberd was my first playthrough weapon. One hope of we do get one with more dragon kin is we see what they were created to fight maybe A more evolved astel as well.
weird comment, but that little spin at the beginning of your videos with your intro always makes me feel good. kinda like coming back to something familiar or an old friend. Keep it up man, proud of you 👍🏼
It's an old dark souls controller player thing, from back when we emoted with stuff that isn't tbagging. I was partial to the shield wiggle/claymore wobble from ds1 and 3, personally.
Love the showcase Chase, glad this katana got a buff (even if, let's be honest, it's not much.) You should check out the coded sword, it got a buff as well that makes it a bit more fun to use now (wa comes out alot quicker now, so you can actually use it in combos with alot higher chance of roll catching)
@@aeriagloris4211in DS2 if i remember you would hold it in something sort of like a "Whole Iron Door" guard if youre using Fiore terms it just looked way cooler and more practical.
I used this sword in the network test back when it was dex/faith and loved it but I haven't tried it since the game released. Might have to actually try this on a dedicated dex build in the future
Damn, it used to scale with faith? I would adore this thing if it still did. It may even be an alright weapon if it did. As it stands, it's a tad substandard as a katana.
I love the way these videos are presented, you don't do any of the shit other DS youtubers do to waste time and the lack of pretension is a refreshing change
This weapon and the Noble's Estoc are the two weapons that I desperately desperately wished were so much better than they are. At least it got some love with 1.07.
When i duel with this i wear the iron kasa and the scaled armor, and i offhand a blood wakazashi as a tribute to okina. and i got incant catalyst in mainhand slot 2 and jellyfish shield in offhand slot 2 so i can do some dragon incants. the ash of war actually catches people off guard a ton since it basically has 3 hits. i run both branchsword talismans also and when those proc i activate dragonbolt blessing so enemies attacks bounce off. it basically turns me into a 2 phase fight because both branch talis activated plus light weapon attacks bouncing off is great because it gives you 2 to hardness value
Sadly, I don't like the shortness of this katana. I'm too used to Nagikiba. Plus with the new bloodflame/Storm caller buffs, it's a lot easier to land while having high poise in my experience.
lucian best arena fighter, very good use of spells and nice spacing. hadn't seen such an opponent to chase in a while, keep it up it was pleasant to watch
I think it’d be nice to look at the banished knights greatsword again, just because of the overall 2H poise buff, and maybe use it to try out some of the Ashes of War that were buffed that aren’t usually on your builds. Blood Tax is super quick to chain and works as good as a poke R2, and Chilling Mist and Poison Mist work like a single button flaming strike now. Worth a look?
chase how often do you come across unfun meta/tryhard adversaries during duels because i have a hard time believing you only find these cool opponents with fun builds and a perfect connection, in other words how are the duels that we are not seeing
This makes me want to play Elden Ring again. The Dragonscale Blade was my favorite katana. I used it quite a lot, particularly on dragons. It wasn't terribly effective though compared to other katanas.
Showcase request - whatever will allow you to test *sacred blade* AoW like the katana user in this video. I think it has potential now after 1.07 buffs, physick and *golden vow* on your offhand.
So I guess it'd be quite fitting to use the... what's it called? The dragon halberd(?) next. Or! You could try out a halberd, whichever, that you haven't used yet. War cry got a hefty buff recently and oh my it is so fun on halberds! And since you're very good at baiting for openings I think you'd have even more fun than I have with it
My weeburai was going to be focused around this weapon just before I stopped, now it might be good for the dlc. Only thing I wished was the art had a little more oomph than a lame slash and follow up lightning strike.
@@Sherudons I understand that. I’m just saying instead of creating a whole new design they could’ve replicated a lightning version of blasphemous blade and it would’ve been 10x better
Ok it's the shortest katana, has a generic r2, lightning slash can be dodged by strafing and you need the buff to even get status buildup unlike all other katanas ...but wowie blue lightning
Crazy how they nerfed endure already. "had a larger impact on balance than expexted" but idk it seemed the same as endure in DS3, it didnt seem that broken to me.

This katana makes you feel like lightning, the rain transformed

15:10 the crucible knight saying “you’re beautiful” to the other crucible knight had me dead lol
then dying so quick haha.. what a tragedy.. chase the cock blocker🤣
what crucible knights do when no one's looking
The katana showdown on Flame Peak was an absolute "peak" battle.
I appreciate the pun attempt but c'mon man you've gotta have better puns than that.
I’m just happy somebody loved that invasion as much as I did. It was a solid battle
@@EarCat something like that battle was straight fire
@@Hadvarr that's better
This weapons is so COOL! Also it's damage is quite SHOCKING as you said!
Love your vids Chase, thanks for showing all the changes in the patch, it always helps when planning builds.

Same here 💜

First fight you tried bowing like the good ol DS3 days, which I do incredibly often…
The way they hold the katana was so much badass in DS2 I mean compared to DS3 and ER it’s like holding a stick
fr it's only reason why I don't two hand medium swords in this game. It just looks so weird to hold a weapon like that
@@zsDUGGZ like what?
@@zsDUGGZ exactly you really know what I mean

I think a Serpentbone Blade and Dragonscale Blade dual wield would be a fun combo

The Dragon Halberd also has the ice lightning buff as well.
1:40 “Full bull goat with the bull goat set” 😏

I'm glad they buffed this! This was my favorite weapon since day 1 simply because it looks cool lol
I love the direction From went with the different katanas this time around. personally think the serpent katana is quite underrated
The green teeth on the blade are sick
Nothing like a good breakfast with Chase's weapon showcase.
The Royal Greatsword got a buff (Blaidds sword). Id love to see how it performs now, havent had the chance to check it out for myself

Ooh one of my pirate saber katanas (other being Serpentbone blade) finally getting some love. 20s to 45s! Epic!
This is my favorite niche weapon, thanks for reviewing it
I believe the correct terminology is “Doggosaurs” :)
ice slice baby, dun dun dun dudududun
ngl i also laugh so hard when sunbro just accepting his fate to descent using the elevator. as always nice vid chase
I think it was more "chilling" than "shocking"
This was one of my favorite weapons I found during my first playthrough… but I already had moonveil in my hand so 🤷♂️
Never got a chance to get this cause fuck lake of rot lol I just ran through there and never looked back.
Sadly, I don't like the shortness of this katana. I'm too used to Nagikiba. Plus with the new bloodflame/Storm caller buffs, it's a lot easier to land while having high poise in my experience.
The Ice lightning buff should be 60 seconds and not only 40 considering the high fp cost.
Woah, some of these guys are starting to close taking out Chase! Good video!
16:54 certified LOL moment right here🤣.. his aggressive swinging added to it as well😆.. Also big shout out to 'One True King' for the amazing battle!👌
Im really disappointed that they only have one ice lightning spell and two weapons needs more

Hey man there's an armor piece that increases jump attack too. Do they stack? I don't have the talisman or I would test it myself.
I really recommend giving Sword of Night and Flame a new look after 1.07
oh my gosh you did it!! thank you so much
that elevator lmao
Glad to see the sword I've used since launch get some love.
And ChaseTheBro. Thanks for sharing content. They Have been so very useful to me.
I'm going to suggest the Prelate Inferno Crozier. The colossal weapons have been buffed and now combo with storm stomp, 1 handed r1 or 2 handed r1
Dude who had the Boulder did a good job fr
It's been 242 days since Elden Ring came out and Chase still hasn't showcased the Ringed Finger 😔
Holy crap, I didn't think they were even gonna buff it to 30 seconds, 45 seconds is so tasty
RULES OF NATURE
Please let us also see some of your defeats ! Wins only eventually feel a bit tasteless...
The sun bro going down was so funny xD
The first invasion
3 Katana players but no Rivers of Blood...
Never thought I'd see the day
Not a lot of love for flails out there. Maybe you could make them work haha
They can't be parried which is cool. Nightrider flail or whatever is legit.
I'd love to see Eleonora's poleblade at some point
chase how often do you come across unfun meta/tryhard adversaries during duels because i have a hard time believing you only find these cool opponents with fun builds and a perfect connection, in other words how are the duels that we are not seeing
He doesn’t. He dies too he just doesn’t post him dying for content purposes ig
I really enjoy the fact that you never duel any toxic wizard spammers in your showcases lol
Bad ass bro, keep it up
They’ve already nerfed endure which was the only thing I disliked about the last patch so I’m happy.
Honestly these videos got me into pvp😅
Fun fight! Stormstomp into r1 colossal sword is a true combo now.
How do you have your items sorted? I was always wondering how do you have them so handy.
Did they add the scabbard? I never used this wep much but I don't recall it having a sheath before. Could 100% be air braining it.
"Quite Shocking" I see what you did there... I approve.

D's greatsword is probably the best weapon to showcase that ability
Bro guys hey, the chase
Pretty cool weapon, you still haven't convinced me to go back to the lake of rot though

Sweet! Wanted to see this one!
What level do you need to be at for the most invasions
Dude, did you do those SKyrim mod reviews? I remember your voice!
They were excellent!
What is that sword 12:17?
Extraordinary Sword. Super cool
what is the armor that you were wearing in the intro?
Malenia's armour with the cape taken off
this is one of the katana of all time.
No cape- as GOD INTENDED
I want more frost lighting in the dlc❤
Love this showcase. thanks
I think dragon halberd also got buffed.
Nah its just good I think love that weapon
Halberd did get a similar buff to the skill. Higher damage and longer duration
Best fight award - strenght wizard 🤣😂
How do you get two of the same weapons?
ive Learn, spinning sword slash , will Always be ' King of Counter Thirst ChaseDowns ''
Raw potential with this one. 🙌
From all the videos of Chase I've watched, I get the impression he's the type of person that's super awkward to end a phone call with.
Apparently the new poise meta numbers are 71, 82, 88, and 103
What do those correspond with man?
hey youtube today I'm starting a sl1 run what are the best weapons I can get early to do a ton of damage?
Uchigatanna
❤I’d love to see a video of the eclipse shotel ❤
Damn you chase! I like to pretend nobody else knew about this lol
Chase the bro vs gigasthiccas when?
That’s a cool armour setup
"Shocking" huh..? Don't think we didn't notice O_O
You're hilarious Chase :D Nice set of battles too!
I see what you did there!
What do you steam on? I looked at you twitch and it said inactive for 3 years.
