Serious question, you dont want spoilers but you're watching videos about all the new items and weapons? And then blame the content creator you're watching for being spoiled? What are okay spoilers for you and what aren't?

@ORCANORCA881

Ай бұрын

@Ludzig In my opinion, spoilers are narrative, environmental, and bosses. Basic weapons and ashes of war aren't really spoilers to me. And I think it's entirely reasonable to blame a creator for spoiling the DLC when the title of the video itself says "no spoilers."

@@Grind4Real it depends on how you spec into it. The thing about Rellana’s Twin Blades is that it a 4 split stat to cater to either melee builds or magic builds. The best stat is primarily Dex so if you have high Dex/Strength the regular attacks are gonna hit hard. If you spec INT/FTH then the Ash of Wars do the real dmg. Spec into INT and the magic projectiles hit hard. Spec into FTH and the fire hits hard and does good poise dmg.

So fun fact about Carian Sovereignty, if you use that with Greatblade Phalanx you dont even need the cracked tear, you will just poisebreak literally anything in front of you if you phalanx hits all 3 blades for an additional 30 stance dmg. These combined give you 121 stance dmg. If you add the cracked tear im pretty sure you could 1 combo stance break any single boss Base Game or DLC.

18:52 Viridian Hidden Tear makes this go CRAZY. Slap bleed onto this weapon, you’re getting a nearly guaranteed bleed proc and stance break.

Youwy has been so on the ball since SOTE dropped, and I just really appreciate that.

I'm too lazy to test, so this is exactly what I was looking for! thx

The bonus damage from Poison flower bloom twice, from my testing with the DLC’s final boss, seems to deal percent hp damage rather than some flat amount extra. When you fight without using the npc summons, the AoW does 3k extra damage. When you summon one of the npc, it deals 5k extra, and when you summon both, it does 7k extra.

hes back babyyy

The ash with the Claymore (idk why) gets ♾️ hyper armor

I love the backhand blade so much

an actually good tier list, thanks

Blind spot is so good. Found that in that starting area and instantly made my main weapon. What’s crazy is that those backhand blades get decent intelligence and dex scaling at +24 at a B for both and cold infusion gives you 105 frost buildup which is actually nuts for such a fast attacking weapon. None of the katanas ever got frost buildup that high so I’ve been loving the weapon personally.

I love using the beast claws on my Int build with the cold infusion and dealing bleed+frost damage. The savage claws really makes it easy to apply both too

flame spear has been on the one "shortsword" we get in the DLC since i got it. A quick and dirty fire sniping move that isn't madness based comes in handy for sure.

“And everything’s just gonna die your welcome there you go” is now my favorite quote

The fire knight set plus the winged snake helmet might just be my favorite armor now

Im so glad colossal swords got AoW to be aggressive in pvp instead of relying on trades and opponents mistakes, i hope this just makes them more versatile.

100% agree on Savage Lion's Claw. I was following a build guide with great Katana that used it and while I do think it's helpful when you have swarms of enemies running towards you, in general it just doesn't work all that well against many of the bosses / mini bosses that move around a bunch

1:19 wall of sparks on the Chilling Perfume Bottle actually works really well on applying frost fast on large enemies, as it hits multiple times

I'm really liking the Crucible Wings, when you time it correctly you can fly over enemy attacks and AOEs, not only dodging them but immediately following up with a punish. It also gets style points.

to anyone that will use the new Fists: use Braggerts Roar WA or any other dmg buff WA on them. their jump, heavy or even light combo are enough to do a ton o dmg. Braggerts Roar fully charged heavy is enough to proc a full bar of status depending on the enemy while melting their HP

Ty. I love what u doing keep up❤❤❤

Fun little thing I found out against the final boss of the DLC, if you Shield Strike at the right time, it also counts as a guard

my blood guts greatsword will love savage lion’s claw

I'm enjoying using Poison Flower Blooms Twice on a Antspur Rapier. It's fun.

I loved flame skewer the second I found it on my first playthrough of the dlc. Very fun skill.

You can apply the AOW:Scattershot Throw to the black claw from DLC and it deals so much more damage

rolling sparks is #1, you can 4-6 shot malenia (both phases combined) with the right build you can do it by looking at the ground and using it (frenzyflame bottle, fire scorpion, shard of alexander, rotten winged sword, millicents prosthesis, fmgs, golden vow)

Flame Spear/Flame Skewer on the Flame Knight's Greatsword just feels... right. The fact they happen to also be really good skills is a nice bonus I guess

For the crucible spin you can just infuse it to non-elemental and apply a weapon buff, so bleed ect is still viable, you don't need to make it sacred.

Wing Stance with Milady has been carrying me through the whole DLC🙌🏼

A note for the throwing blades weapon in general: one hand it for straight damage, maybe two hand for status proc. Doing a playthrough with them and another weapon CE'd through vanilla and discovered that having it just one handed was *miles* better than two.

From what I know about the Aspect of the Crucible: Wings Ash of War, you can change it from being Sacred to being like Keen or Heavy, so you can use greases on the weapon still and gain status effects that way.

17:11 "sound of a storm that is approaching"

Very in depth and straight to the point, I give this video 5 skulls 💀💀💀💀💀

I'm loving that Carian Sovereignty. It's so glorious.

Palm Blast is so good it's actually insane, it completely trivializes areas with those fire knights who are super annoying to deal with. Just hit them with 2 or 3 fully charged slaps and they're done. Good method for farming their armor set too

That poor omen seeing Youwy appear with a bunch of new torture devices and his recording equipment: 0_0

Ok im going to tell you before it gets fixed: Free Aiming the Rolling Sparks at the ground makes all the explosions trigger instantly at the same time in that spot, oneshotting pretty much everything that is not a boss :p

smart video,i appericiate it

I like the throwing blades as an off hand, great way to get damage in from range as a melee build

Watching you snipe Malenia with Igon's Dragon Hunt was fucking hilarious

I would like to add a little to the Wing Stance AoW; if you have your weapon set as bleed then then the R1 flurry will proc it extremely quickly. And it pairs well with a bunch of damage boosting talismans, like the Rotten Sword Insignia, Two Handed Sword Talisman, Lord of Blood's Exultation, Millicent's Prosthesis, etc. If you have a big enough opening you can just turn into a bleed blender.

blind spot is my new favorite ash of war that thing is so damn fun makes you feel like some sort of ninja assassin

Something not a lot of ppl know is with wing stance the light input can flow into the heavy input rly smoothly for a sick combo

Raging beast is amazing because it lets you avoid ground attacks you need to jump over(seems like a reoccurring theme in the DLC). Wind stance is good as well, especially for poise breaking but slightly clunky to execute fast

lmao that last ash of war is just too funny

23:35 you can use grandeur on a greatsword to get hyper armor, so if anyone's looking for that I don't think that got changed in 1.12 I do think sovereignty is just better tho. More hyper armor regardless of what you put it on and the follow up covers the issue with large/spread out or fast groups of enemies
