Which weapon to choose for this bleeding build on Elden Ring?
For this Elden Ring bleeding build, we are going to offer you to do the bulk of your damage… from a distance. Yes, it's surprising given that we're usually used to chaining together quick attacks on this kind of build, but here, we're going to use a powerful weapon!
This weapon is the sacred spear of Mohgwyn. To obtain it, you will have to beat Mohg, the blood lord. Once that's done, go to the Two Fingers merchant and exchange the souvenir for this weapon which is clearly worth the detour.
This is particularly the case for his skill, “Ritual of Blood Favor”. Three times, you will create immense explosions of blood which will do devastating damage and also ignite the weapon. Even better and as you can imagine, she also applies bleeding!
The incantations to choose
As you can imagine, here we are not really going to rely on incantations to do damage, but rather to buffer ourselves before the start of the fight. We might as well tell you that we will be sure something quite classic including the famous “Golden Oath”.
The latter will allow you to have more attack power and better defense and it finds its place in many builds. To accompany it, “Flame, strengthen me” is another very good choice. It will increase physical and fire attacks, but the special skill of your spear ignites it.
As for attribute points, here we are going to be on a build based on esotericism in main statistics. We therefore advise you to invest between 60 and 65 points in this skill, to increase your damage. Your weapon also scales on strength.
However, this is not the statistic that we will seek to increase at all costs. Since then, invest around thirty points on it. Finally, put around forty points into effect to make sure you don't get one-shotted by anything that moves.
Don't really invest points in faith, but rather use a seal, such as the “Finger Seal” or even the “Draconic Communion Seal” which also has the advantage of scaling according to esotericism, your main statistic as we have just seen!
Equipment pieces to choose
In terms of equipment to choose, the piece of armor you absolutely need is the White Mask. Indeed, the latter will increase the power of attacks in the event of bleeding nearby, which is simply the essence of this build.
As for talismans, bet on the “Alexander Fragment” which increases the power of skill attacks, the “Fire Scorpion Talisman” which increases fire attack, the “Ritual Sword Talisman” which increases attack power when HP is at max and the “Exaltation of the Bloodlord” which increases attack power when bleeding.
Finally, as for the vial of tears, you will first opt for the “Cracked tear veiled in flames” which will allow you to strengthen fire attacks. Then go for the “strength knotted crystal tear” which increases strength.
So exactly how does this “ranged” bleed build play out on Elden Ring? Well, first, you will buffer yourself by using your two invocations, as well as the vial of tears. Then approach the enemy to be within range of the weapon's ability.
Throw it as much as you can to start the fight and you should already have dented your enemy's life bar. If he is not dead, you will move on to the second phase of the fight. which will require classic attacks with your weapon.
The latter will then inflict not only bleeding, but also burns which are reinforced by your talismans, tears and incantations. Be careful with this phase though, Spear fights require time to adapt to get the timing right.
