@@BLUEBOYISLEDGE They’re referring to the fact that there is a decent amount of ashes of war that they can go with as well as some moves unique to Katanas when using one or power stancing two (fun fact, you can power stance the starting normal katana and the dagger katana thing so something to keep in mind), some of the moves works well with Katanas but also can be used for other weapons, piercing fang comes into mind while Unsheathe is completely unique to Katanas and calling it an identical thing to stance on straight swords isn’t entirely correct although I see your point. There isn’t nothing wrong starting and playing as Samurai, nothing so just let people play whatever they want to use? This isn’t a complicated concept considering this game has an unholy amount of replayability.

After Rime Ronin and Blazing Bushido, this is the third time you've made a Nagakiba build. When I ran my samurai at launch, I went full cheese with an INT/DEX Moonveil + Cold Uchigatana build. I've neglected the Nagakiba for too long. It's time I sat down and made a dedicated Naga build.

Hey man just want to let you know how immensely your videos have helped suck me into this damn game. Your videos aren’t just precise blueprints to follow but also gave me ideas for how to customize it to fit my own likes. For example I switched to your elanora twin blade late game build, and later added a seppuku godskin peeler to take advantage of jump attacks. So unbelievably fun and I cannot wait to switch the seppuku to cold affinity to play with repeated freeze/blood loss proc

This looks like a lot of fun, thanks for the build!

This really helps!! I appreciate this I've always wanted to get into a souls game but it is very overwhelming. I don't have time like some to test out each change so by you doing this, I can really get into this Thank you

this is my fav build so far and ive been looking thanks this is really nice

Incredible. A samurai build that does not make you much of a meta slave. Defo trying this out.

Just bought the game on sale and you’re videos are amazing bro ! Thanks for the dope content you’re awesome 🤙🏽🔥

Great Video as always. And big thanks again for the hard work you put into these videos. I tried the Blood Dancer build with eleanor's pole blade out today and I was wondering if we could get an update on this build maybe? Loved the Blasphemous Herald build btw. playing it on my 2nd character and starting my 3rd play through with it. Thanks for that! :)

I like how the uchi and I believe the dragon kitana have a fast 1h r2 poke and then when you 2h the r2 becomes an overhead slash its really versatile the 1h poke destroys light shields and lower poised enemies and the 2h slash is a good punish for jump attack spammers but I think they nerfed the range from launch cuz you can no longer hit people who use jumping ashes of war

Love these guides. Keep it up man

Love this! Cannot believe how long the sword is!! It’s insane! Another great video cheers 🍻

thank you! all i’ve been finding is blood and moonveil, this what i wanted

I’ve been playing other games (demon souls atm) but every time you make a new vid, makes me want to jump back in!

This is PERFECT timing Cass. I just started a new playthrough and I asked my wife last night "What weapon next should I do for 100%?" and she told me "KATANA!". Woke up to this video, LETS GOOOOOO

Solid build. I'm doing something similar but in the strength route using Great Mace and Brag.Road > a Poise breaking build essentially which is essentially what this is. I really like the two handed use of weapons now as I myself was never into powerstancing. Not using Double Slash on the katana is hard for me to ignore though > another great build, keep them coming.

I’m a big fashion souls/Elden bling nerd too, really like the look of the nox armor with the iron kasa, definitely gonna use that next build

I really like this build, thanks!

I was thinking about a build to try out when the DLC is out and I've also never used any of the greases in my playthroughs so this will be the one. Great video, as always. Thanks for all the work you put in to these, much apprecierad.

Love the unique builds you come up with. Ive been working on a druid/shaman type build focusing on beast and crucible incantations with a few dragon ones. I throw a few boulders, throw out a tail swipe, and hit them with a big club. Stance breaks for days.

For a tanky samurai looking build, I use the nights cavalry helm and the blackflame monk armor. Hands and feet are up to you, but I use fire prelate gauntlets and Hoslow's greaves

I like the incorporations of greases, with such a comprehensive crafting system, crafting never seems to get much love. Would you consider making a perfumer/pot-thrower build?

i really like the ashes of war system in elden ring. you can have the same weapon as someone else but because you have a specific ashes of war you could go a totally different route and still have a effective build. for example for this build you can literally try out many other ashes of war and still go this pure dex samurai build and youd be fine. idk how other people feel about the system but i am really having a great time trying out different abilities

I've been so hungry for another Fextralife build video 😍

Interesting to see all game builds

I genuinely feel sorry for Cass, he's got so many games and so many builds and video series he has to work on in this channel. It's brutal, not to mention all the hunting he does on the side in case the ad revenue doesn't cover the rent (yay KZread sustainability). I made a different version of this when I made a Samurai build, and I have to agree that the Nagakiba is a fantastic weapon. I don't use it anymore since I foolishly started NG+ on all my builds instead of keeping them in the completed state to help other players, but since I have the PS4 and PS5 editions of the game on my PS5, I get to have twenty builds. So, maybe I'll end up using the Nagakiba again. Good stuff, man, I love your stuff and it really helped me to learn how this game's mechanics and builds work.

I'm playing a Faith-dex build right now using the Cipher Pata (really fun weapon!) and lightning incantations for rage, however I'm keeping a katana and using it with Electrify Armament whenever I need non-holy damage or longer range. Can't wait to get to the Nagakiba, it looks so freaking cool.

Am I the only one who thinks " supreme samurai " sounds like a special asian themed meaty pizza that just came out ?

This does help with a problem I've been trying to sort out with a build thanks

I love all your Samurai Builds! :)

This video really helped me out,I'm going for a quality samurai with the Nagakiba,no magic,no gimmicks,just pure sword skills 25 strength and dexterity with 52 vigor Quality Nagakiba,best ash of war for it is double slash,it's basically corpse piler without the blood effect,starting class was vagabond This video really gave me a direction,especially with what weapon I was gonna use,the Nagakiba is a beast,not even fully upgraded and I'm one shotting most basic enemies

Beat elden ring, my first fromsoftware game, and played samurai didn't realize the power of undheathe and was focusing on strength. Later in the playthrough realized I needed to prioritize dex, had way more success. Maybe I will do another samurai playthrough with the nagakibu

A burrito supreme! And a Cutlass Supreme! And a samurai supreme! Supreme!

Very nice I use the nagakiba with the double slash

yoo first of all thank you for these awesomes videos! as this is my first playthrough, it's glorius to see how many builds there are and the way you explain them :D i was wondering if this build would fit in a 50lvl stance of the game... anyway, i've been using the ucihgatana+unsheathe so moving forward to nagakiba seems to be a must. if not, i think i might give it a chance to the moonveil build that seems fun too

Yes you definitely can!

I can't wait too see the new weapons in the dlc I wonder if there will be any new katanas or maybe even a new weapon type

I made a samurai build that is likely less optimal than this one but I still found it good and very fun. I like a lot of weapon diversity in my builds. This is was a new game build for me and mainly works because of my need for a diverse amount of weapons. The cold uchi was very good at setting up frost and when combined with Bloodflame blade the procs of both effects were very good. You can use hoarfrost stomp for the weapon art if you don’t wish to fight Royal Knight Loretta early on like I did. The faith isn’t necessary at all I just found the buffs very useful for a cheap investment. I mainly used smithing stone bell bearings to level up due to thr amount of weapons (3 to level up) Keen Nagakiba with Unsheathe in R1 Keen Cross-Naginata with Swords Dance in R2 Cold Uchigatana with Freezing Mist in L1 Finger Seal with Bloodflame Blade, Flame Grant me strength and whatever weapons buffs you can get with the stats such as electricity or Poison Armament Stats: At least 40 Vigor 20-25 Mind 30 Endurance 18 Strength 60 Dex 15 Faith 10 Arcane

Top 5 five overall weapons would be a great video.

It may be considered a bit plain, or something already covered, but some sort of pure wizard/mage would be nice to see. I know with all your guides youve covered every way one could be built but something more thematic then absolute meta is always fun to see, and you do them so well.

I was actually wondering could you do a quick run-through of a early samurai build for players? Like a quick 20-minute run you could do to get a whole bunch of flasks and weapons to have a samurai build that we can take all the way to end game?

I love using the cross naginata in my off hand and uchi in my right amd two handing the naginata as my main. Buckler or small shield in the second slot of my off hand, and the long bow in the second slot of my main hand Alternstive weapon arts: naginata- piercing fang, sword dance, bloodhounds step Uchi: double slash, bloodhounds step Raptor of the mists on naginata and unsheathe on uchi. Blood infusion on uchi early game and occult scaling late game. For naginata i like using keen early game and occult (usually) late game. Alternatively, ROB swap instead of uchi, as its in line with the Dex-Arcane build. Ive also used s frost infusion on my naginata and flame infusion of my uchi. Or ROB as it hss innate fire damage. Its also fun to swao the ucji for moonveil and run a dex-int build, add frost or magic infusion to the naginata for better int scaling and apply the frostbite status for added damage from all sources, as well as the flat percent damage from the frost proc Also fun with a dex-faith build For new game runs, level strength for the faith build and add the clawmark seal snd use quality scaling. Theres so many ways to play with this build(s) and tailor it to your liking. it's easily one of my favorites. If anyone has tried or will try these builds, lmk how you like them :) i find them super fun!

I remember the 100+ hour review and him basically saying that if you like multiple builds in skyrim you will love elden ring.

I'm on my first playthrough and was following your blazing Bushido guide with the bleed incantation + flame grant me strenght and the STR/DEX build with quality affinity, now I'm not sure if I should change for that, I'm torn apart ^^ I'm at 115 and I finished Mohg in his sanctum + Morgott and beginning Farum Azula. Not sure what's the best option for a first playthrough and my future struggles with Malenia (can't wait to face her, Mohg was tough but I've heard and seen so much about her...). What I know for sure : I love 2 handing nagakiba, it's simple enough for a first time and it's still elegant and a bit tactical on your unsheathe timing, so, thanks for that, I had a blast so far.
