I wish they’d rebalance Rivers of Blood just a little bit. It’s such a cool weapon but it’s literally outshined by the starting katana making it all but obsolete when you can just use the uchi or nagakiba with blood flame blade

About eleonora's poleblade skill, i think the best think about it is how 90% of the ennemies are stunned into it, included malenia, it's like they can't escape the whole animation, making fight and exploration a lot easier. Also you get a bit a super armor during the leap and with all the multihit buff it's a monster. (At higher stat the fire cracked tear is better)

He keeps talking about Ash of War, but when he was going into his inventory I didn't see any Ash of war equipped to anything he had on. Also at 7:58 he talks about the Arcane stat going to "60 and 80", What does that mean? when looking at his stats, his Arcane was only 45. Again, I am new so could someone please explain this.
