33:47 Fun fact, the Spectral Blade neutral dodge attack is based on Elden Ring Malenia's Waterfowl Dance attack, and the devs joked about calling it Foul Energy Dance lol. Tragic commented about it in the discord.
I'm really surprised you didn't show off the ENC DOT builds with Tainted Blade on Krell Axe. That build is absolutely a monster. I threw together a half assed version and deleted Legion on my no shooting playthrough.
4:47 You take that back! that look is awesome for the "wasteland warrior" look that is key to Remnant's identity! also it's the closest thing we have to the OG drifter's helmet.
The Knuckle Dusters are my favourite melee weapon in the game. They are just so much damn fun to use and are surprisingly effective, even in Apocalypse. I like using the Matriarch's Insignia and Rerouting Cable, with the Opportunist mutator. A Perfect Dodge build is really fun with this weapon because the charged neutral attack is SO STRONG, and getting a crit with Opportunist is JUICY. Matriarch's Insignia not only adds a WHOPPING 35% damage, but also keeps your stamina topped up. And if you throw in Burden of the Audacious (heals you when you perfect dodge), you are pretty much always at full health with additional shields from the Rerouting Cable. The last ring slot goes to Meteorite Shard ring for the absolutely MASSIVE damage. The encumberance penalty doesn't matter as much as you might think here, because you're primarily using neutral dodges anyway. These are absolutely Apocalyse ready lol. Apocalypse is not Knuckle Dusters ready.
See I'm dumber than that; I just really loved the animations for just decking elves and robots in the face with alternating left and right crosses, which is the sole reason I used knuckles the entire game.
For anyone who wants a great crowd clear melee build, heres one i put together Classes: ritualist (ability 2) and invoker (ability 1)(invoker as well as the second slot all together is person choice) Relic heart: tranquil heart (the heart is up to what you prefer) Relic fragments: melee attack speed, melee damage, and elemental damage Amulet: energized neck coil Rings: berserker crest, bisected ring (optional), band of the fanatic, and blood jewel Traits: Flash caster level 10 Fortify level 10 Regrowth level 10 Triage level 10 Vigor level 7 Expertise level 10 Amplitude level 10 Barkskin level 10 Siphoner level 10 The melee weapon youll use is the Krell axe with the tainted blade mutator, primarily use the throw attack and every enemy around should die, its decent for bosses to but wouldnt recommend using it for bosses on nightmare or apoc
It's a fun gimmick for a melee build with Godsplitter and a ranged player with Deceit to work together so the deceit player always has weakspot hits, but that 2s timer is brutal if you're wanting to do it for yourself.
Personally my favorite mutator on Feral Judgement is Shocker. Each of the Death Sentence hits counts as an individual melee hit, so generally you see something like this: 5 hits primes Shocker, 6th hit procs it and charges the mod. Then Death Sentence hits 10 times (+1 for the hit that triggered it for a total of 11), which procs Shocker again and primes it for a 3rd proc. Very flashy and fun to use.
Yeh I'm back for DLC3 after taking a break since the other two didn't interest me (nerud my fav) and just discovered this myself but on spectral blade. Very flashy especially since spectral blades blue goes well w the lightning

That’s awesome!

Yeah I should have, it's pretty hilarious how hard it can just obliterate things lol.

Oh my god that’s genius. I can’t believe I didn’t think about using it with the weapon.
🤩🤩 i can get my lost fun on shocker ghost blade back with this build , genius !!

Yes! Been waiting for this
Great video. Very informative
As foretold in prophecy, the Knuckle Dusters are now irrelevant. 😞
Side note but many of the weapons you didn't like are getting buffed with DLC2 per official discord.
That’s a relief to hear, a lot of them just need a liiiiitle tweak and they’d be way better.
our "Lootkits" April Fool's joke will forever be immortalized in this video. most based
good video btw
Noice. Extensive as fuck!
Why do creators think we want short videos?
If I could make videos of this length quicker I wouldn’t really mind. After a month passes and I don’t get a video out I feel bad.
