Fromsoft just give this man even a single crumb of the DLC, at this rate he really might just rate all the doors in Elden Ring from worst to best...

Fun fact about Braggart’s Roar: the stamina Regen stacks if you powerstance two weapons with it because it’s classified as a weapon buff so you can slap it on any two weapons you like with turtle talisman (or without) and regen your entire stamina bar in like 1.5 seconds

Square off being that low is criminal, I can understand it though since the value isn’t obvious. What makes Square Off good is the insane stance damage. The light attack of Square Off does as much stance as the unsheathe heavy attack, and the Square Off heavy attack does more. You’re giving the stance breaking power of a Colossal weapon to a Straight Sword attack.

The edit at 36:20 is so needlessly clean, well done to the editor

Im sure someone has already mentioned it, but each projectile in rain of arrows actually uses the same type of arrow fired. Meaning you can use just 1 single rot, sleep, poison, bleed, etc. Arrow, and get massive buildup, great for starting fights with big enemies/bosses by giving them status effects before they break idle animation

Poison moth flight is actually kinda awesome given you establish poison on the target before you hit with it. Explodes the enemy’s health with all the damage the poison tick would’ve done all at once. Allowing you to start another poison proc and if you have the mushroom crown, that’s 10% 20 second damage boon, reset and regained in just a few swings. Put the ash on something with innate bleed damage and now your doing that too.

Square Off is actually so good it's disgusting. My only gripe with it is that I can't put it on the Carian Knight's sword :(

It's been posted like 45 times but Square Off is genuinely an extremely powerful and versatile AOW that can carry you through the entire game with ease, absolutely trivializes all normal encounters and a large % of bosses for almost no FP

Two months late, but I feel it's worth mentioning for Barricade Shield. The weapon art is, itself, a block. You can intercept an enemy attack on like frame one with that by just hitting the left trigger and nine times out of ten they'll bounce off and leave themselves wide open to a guard counter. If you hold left bumper after tapping left trigger you won't even drop the shield after activating the shield buff.

I really appreciate that you are rating the Ashes of War as items, and not just the skills. This is a useful distinction.

Just so you know Rusty, Poison moth flight drains all poison on a poisoned enemy and does all the damage the poison would have done. Edit for the replies: I don't use status so don't tell me "are we really turning poison into bleed" as if I'm inferior. All I did was say what poison moth flight ACTUALLY DOES

Square off might be one of the best stance-breaking tools this game has, not to mention its easily accessible and doesn't have any other requirements There is a reason why it is popular for speed and challenge runs

Thanks for the guide. I really appreciate the long form content, and a lot of other videos are outdated due to patches.

Good work! Thank you for this overview!

Square-off is an underrated gem, it does 40 stance damage, enough to stagger almost every boss with only 2-3 attacks, and its never getting nerfed because people don’t realize how strong that is hahahahaha(also the light attack breaks shield guard in 1 attack)

Bloody Slash will forever be one of my all time favorite Ashes of War because I remember on day 1 of the game I had it on my Katana in Stormveil and an invader tried to hide behind Rogier so I wouldn’t attack him and he sat behind it taunting me when I remembered that there’s a slight gap between the blood slash and the weapon to in a single attempt I slashed THROUGH Rogier and didn’t hit him at all and instakilled the invader. My first hatemail of the game <3

Boggart’s roar should be lower, but only because Boggart has to die to get it.
