    You want to be impressed? Ok. I’ll show you one of the best builds in Elden Ring that goes the hardest.The secret to this build is maintaining distance as much as possible and overwhelming your opponents if they get close. Proper utilization of sun spear and black flame incantations should help keep the gap. Don’t level dex at all. There’s a few accessories you want to acquire too. Two scar seals, the blackflame booster and the other scar seal. I can look them up if you’d like. You need to level Vigor, for starters because low Vigor is for plebs. Level strength (only if you plan on using shields), stamina, intelligence and faith. Acquire star scourge radahns greatsword and find the black flame talisman. 2 if possible. Also, since star scourge radahns greatsword scales better with INT you can even invest in a decent staff for glintstone sorcery. Since your damage output will mainly come from your incantations the sorcery will be efficient at “chipping away” from a larger radial distance if the incants range is making things dicey. Radahns swords give you more options if you engage up close, though. You’re just sacrificing range which could come in clutch in later fights. Proper utilization of the swords gravity magic can be both a blessing and a curse. Be mindful when using it. It’s mainly for group mobbing, but clever use could allow you to knock your foes off ledges. Be mindful of its wind up; it takes a second, and while it does give you a degree of hyper armor, it still leaves you vulnerable for a couple seconds. I recommend using it CAREFULLY as a last resort when shit gets in your face.

        Me too, friend haha. This build has carried me to ng+3 so far, and I’ve actually improved it with dual wielding blasphemous blade/sacred relic in power stance for when you need quicker swings that still pack a decent punch. Malenia will weep.

            Why are you apologizing? Mimic is amazing at drawing aggro and drumming up offensive support. You killed it. You earned the right to summon it. You’ve uh…talked more about this than I expected tbh. I initially was just being an ass lol

                Same, tbh. I’m broke as hell, lol

                Mimic used to be OP, but I think it’s in a better place now. I love that guy.
