Kinda wish this was a talisman instead of a tear so I could play through the whole game this way instead of rushing from grace to grace to refresh the physick. Would probably need to be nerfed by removing the enhanced guard counters if they did that, but it would still be well worth the talisman slot for such a fun alternative playstyle to always be active

I used the Deflecting Hardtear against most of the DLC, and I can confidently tell you that while you may take some chip damage, you can literally deflect anything in the game as long as you time it right. Including dragon breath and huge explosions.

@michaelbowman6684

7 күн бұрын

It does all of those things, though? Deflects reduce incoming Physical damage by 100%, Elemental damage by 75%, and Stamina damage by 65% on top of whatever blocking stats you weapon/shield has. So for example, a +25 Carian Knight Shield would go from having a Magic Negation of 71% to an _effective_ Magic Negation of 92.75% while in terms of Stamina damage Negation, it would go from having a Guard Boost of 60% to an effective Guard Boost of 86% which is pretty good. This Crystal Tear pairs well with things like the Greatshield Talisman, Viridian Amber Medallion +3, or Pearl Shield Talisman since the Guard Counter portion of the buff is hard to land in PvP, but the other benefits it provides are great for builds that want to use something like a Sword and Board strategy.

@@michaelbowman6684 Did you misread my comment? What I want is a talisman that buff guard boost and Physical damage negation only, during time block. So it not become op to the point of deflecting magic. I want to do deflect without drinking tear in the first place. Hence why I want talisman. That tear buff everything, which it should because it's a tear. But I don't want to waste tear in open world combat just to do deflect for 5 min.

Try to make an infinite chain of guard counters and L1s perfect blocks with someone also using the same mixed physics.

There's a big focus on guard counters in the dlc in general and mastering it can take a lot of the sting out of the harder bosses.

Deflect into Ultra GS guard counter is disgustingly funny. 54str at level 90 is nasty work. If they made this a talisman, they would've had to make it a pretty heavy one and remove the boosted guard counter damage(else it would supplant the Curved Sword talisman entirely).

Great video. I was looking forward to it when you were talking about it on stream, I love guard countering so this will be something to try out.

really like perfect blocking with a sword and shield build now. before it was mostly for fashion or for straight up tanking, but I've had some fun just deflecting attacks and following up with hard hitting counters. Also fun to perfect block a caster's spells with the right set up lo..

Such a fun build idea, keep em coming Oro.

the lance guard counter attack seems so perfect for PvP deflects, sick vid!

Never thought about a guard counter build; That is nasty!

The ending was probably the best part of this video had me laughing so hard

This was the first “build” type that i tried in the dlc and it was super fun

Fun fact, I’m pretty sure you can headshot because it’s a thrusting weapon so if you free aim up a little bit you’ll get the extra damage + all the other stats and buffs

I HAVEN'T EVEN THOUGHT IT COULD WORK IN PVP, WOW...

This absolutely should've been a talisman, for much it changes the core experience. Also, goddamn it feels great having a Sekiro-like perfect block in Elden Ring.

I really wish it worked with the blocking heavy attack of the carian knight sword. It would have made it's blocking gimmick so good for mixups and would actually make the weapons somewhat appealing both in pvp and pve.

I haven't been watching anyone's content on the DLC to avoid spoilers, but I just wanted to say we have the same fashion going on, Brandon. Rellana legs and chest armor with Carrian Knight helmet and gloves. I just thought it funny that one of the first souls youtubers/streamers I watched who is my personal favorite ended up with the same armor combo I've been rocking since I beat Rellana. Especially since I used to use your armor combo from DS1, Elite Knight chest and helmet, Havel gauntlets, and Wanderer's boots. I basically just used your whole build. "Falchion OP, R2 covered in cobwebs" 12 days of Soulsmas is still one of my all-time favorite videos. "🎵and I don't even know what's happening🎵" still cracks me up to this day. Hope life is good for you.

Elden Ring: Invader in a Random Tree™

I've been waiting to see somebody use a deflect build! Granted, I've been asking for a blacksteel greathammer build of it but this proves concept lol.

Im surprised no one did this sooner lmao, i was planning to make a build like this but less around guard counters and around the carian knight sword since the heavy start up has block frames so idk if that counts as spontaneous guard though

This build with tree spear was what I used to kill the final boss

Oro, you just gave me a nasty idea thanks to this vid with thr thrusting sheild. Use the 1 handed attack from the sheild strike skill to "counter attack", then block the last attack into guard counter for the kill.

You can use Leda armor to boost damage from rolls and side step. A little extra touch when not enough stamina to deflect

The fact this isn't a talisman or just a an update to the mechanics is criminal. Fromsoft please patch in a talisman for this!

That ending is amazing

They heard our cries and they delivered

10:30 that’s a statement valid in all aspects of invading in Elden Ring

I tested this tear in PvE and didn't really notice much... thought it was underwhleming. Thanks for demonstrating how awesome it really is and how it's actually viable in pvp!

We need to see some martial arts and/or beast claw invasions

Giving me love train vibes from the lance in DS2

The, “No Attacking Me Build”. I guess you just do it right back to counter lol.

4:53 moments like this are when gravity stone fans are nice

My only oroblem with the deflecting hard tear is that if you are using a weapon with not the best guard boost on ng+7 the stamina damage you take is pretty severe.

Does this stack with the dragonbolt blessing? And how good is dragonbolt blessings deflect boost compared to the tear?

Does the spear talisman trigger when you trade with a guard counter?

This kind of counter gameplay with high potential reward is just such a sick way to play the game.

Yup, barely anyone is making content using the new deflect tear. This is so much fun, not only in Pvp but Pve as well

Man, that squad at 8:19 was being hard carried by the naked mage in the back. It all fell apart for them when Oro got to him.

Best playstyke

Smooth video like always, cheers from Germany

Can not believe that they made this a tear and not a talisman.

Does this work with dueling shields? Wondering How it affects their block/guard if so

Just as a helpful tip, the way to deal with someone using this against you would likely be too heavy attack them to attempt to stagger them or use something like sword dance with a Multi hit to try and knock them out of the guard counter animation. Any other good ideas? We all know this is now officially the Meta!

Law of Regression or Leda’s Sword will remove all buffs from a player. So it just becomes a normal lance build which isn’t that bad.

As a pve player I am just as obsessed with this talisman! The fact it literally works against even things like dragon lightning strikes is insane, shield builds are crazy right now!

Absolutely amazing

I feel like with the insane Stam damage of PvP, you should consider more endurance and or the greatshield tali

Try the Cuckoo Knight gauntlets with this fit. They work way better than the Carian Knight gauntlets

Cool armor!

The only direct improvement for this build I would suggest is using it with the new Swordlance weapon instead of the actual lance. It still keeps the same R2 moveset, but instead of big slow pokes you get the faster heavy thrusting sword R1 moveset. It also has better strength scaling and base damage than the lance when Heavy infused adding up to about 100 more AR when fully upgraded and at 80 strength, meaning even more dangerous guard counters. Also, it has a lower dex requirement, giving you a few points to put elsewhere.

Is lvl 90 still the golden range for invasions?
