Nice build, i will try it at level 170!! Did you use the poise crystal tear? I think the build is a little bit hard to use against gank but in 1v1 it's top tier for sure. I tried a lot of weapons in pvp but for me the best against gankers is the gravitational missile. But i'm gonna try this for sure!

@Knocktopus759

17 күн бұрын

Yeah I used poise tear and the one crimson whorl tear or whatever it’s called so I could have the poise boost as well as get healed by no physical damage so I could have a better chance of tanking hits. It does ok against ganks but you definitely have to focus the host in most cases unless the summons are just kinda bad lol

I ran it a couple times, but there’s really not a need for it. The spear hand strike is basically doing what the grab does on a more effective level. Not really a point in running both unless you’re just trying to style on people which is totally valid.

@quantum_leviathan the crimson whorl tear makes it so that for a short period of time (i think 30 seconds) all NON-physical damage you receive heals you rather than harms you. so for example if someone is spamming magic at you while you're trying to get the host it will not harm you. its very useful ESPECIALLY when combined with the poise tear. the poise tear allows you to go for your ash of war while they just wildly swing at you and the crimson whorl helps you SURVIVE the wild swinging rather than just tank it but lose all your health. keep in mind though sometimes if someone's using split damage the physical damage will harm u but the non-physical will heal you so you end up taking damage still just FAR less. if they're using pure physical damage though and no ones spamming spells at you you will just get melted lmao it happens sometimes especially against strength and dex builds.

@@Knocktopus759 the only way you can make madness look good is by using only one or two weapons at a time to make them good because they don’t work well together because they have so different scaling : the perfume and Vyke spear are more dex weapons, fingerprint shield works almost exclusively with blood infusion and needs lot of strength, the torch is just useful as a secondary tool but very bad and the madding hand is using all the stats (except arcane) The madness incantations just need faith and the seal is never the best option at any level (even at max level).
