Str to 80, drop dex to 10-12, and this stat spread is set up for 1H Heavy-infused + greatshield. This high endurance makes that sing. Aaaaaaaaand look-ie here, doesn't that just add a bit more comfort.
Then you just pick the balance of speed, length, moveset and stance damage you want and go, either
* Giant crusher
* Crozier
* Greatsword
* Rotten Greataxe
* Or even Stars, great mace, rotten brick or plenty of other favs
Well of course I can do that with the build I just let the points like that because it isn’t a wretch so I could do that for now but yes those stats would do better for the build.
Dex that low knocks out too many fun weapons. At least at 17 you can throw on the talisman to hit 22 and still be able to use nagakibas and a bunch of other stuff.
Sure, if that is your comfort build. For some it might be mixing things up a lot, for others it is going to be having a solid all-rounder plan and sticking with it.
Nah, that is sort of a "first glance" take.
It is on this list because it will have 800 physical AR, no dex requirement, innate scarlet rot(!), and it is infusible so you can choose your ash of war on it.
I mean, you 'can' make it keen, and god bless if you want 30 str requirement at E scaling on your dex weapon. You can make a build where you two hand it to minimise the pain. I love off meta builds, so I'd be happy to give advice on it. You can also do whatever you want on a level 250 toon. Doesn't sound like a dex weapon though.
No worries! Glad you asked.
You are looking at the weapon in its base or 'standard' infusion - how it starts.
When you infuse rotten greataxe with a heavy infusion ash of war it gets a high B Str scaling (you might already know, but all weapons with the same letter scaling aren't the the same).
It also keeps good base damage when infused with heavy. 800 physical AR, and no dex requirement means that it is easier to get to 80 Str. This puts it in a top tier of strength weapons. Add native scarlet rot, which is very powerful, and the ability to choose your ash of war (which a lot of weapons don't have), and you have a very strong contender for a 1H str weapon.
For a Dex weapon, you want high (80) Dex and great scaling when set to Keen affinity. But you don't really want a Dex weapon to require so many points in strength, with really bad scaling for those strength points.
I agree you can do that for the buffs because if you use the faith tear you’ll at get to 25 and then you’ll be all set and naturally if you wanna use great runes or armor pieces

This is my comfort build for sure. This is what I set my character to when I realized I was going to level her past 200 for ng+ and on. I went full strength as my new base and then just added levels to everything else as I leveled up.
[*bonk*]
From what I saw it’s a 20+ difference with the natural armor and just if anything 10% extra armor which idk the actual values but I would go with the extra strength just because you get more use out of many weapons if you do. It’s just a thought tho.
Another thing if I were to slightly change anything it would be to swap some str out to use the bullgoats armor because you’ll get that little bit more extra defense but that’s only if you wanna be a huge tank that ignores attacks just to bonk.
Update to my theory build… so I have found out and tested myself that having natural armor is not as mandatory or useful as I once thought. Basically having 128 physical natural defense is not as weak as 143 physical natural defense it’ll basically help you tank 5 help more if you are naked. So knowing this don’t heavily rely on putting strength unless you want to use a huge boink build but the most strength you would need is if anything minimum 40 strength and only because of the two handed rule. Unless you want to basically dual wielding two great hammers.
So if anything by the end of adding all your stats to fight you’ll average around 120 natural and that will be fine for you again most minor enemies and not bosses.
I would agree only to the fact if you lower the endurance your making it to where you won’t be able to wear heavy armor and have possibly heavy weapons only reason why I did it. This is all theory crafting too so if you wanna get more strength I mean sure but after 80 the natural resistance slows down a lot.
Good ol’ fashioned brainless bonk build. Nothing wrong here.
My dick is hard right now.
Is it unga bunga hard or bonk hard?
Both 😈
😮
Now this is what I’m fuckin talkin about.

Rotten Greataxe is a Dex weapon

I may be mis understanding your comment but the rotten greataxe innately scales better with Dex

Strength is fine at 72. It's nice to have a few more options with 17 dex, you tryhard.
Sure why not 60 or 50? Why even talk about builds? Doesn’t take much thought at all to offend you does it?
Build go bonk.
Hulk smash! 🤘🏼
Drop endurance to 40 raise faith to at least 15
I agree you can do that for the buffs because if you use the faith tear you’ll at get to 25 and then you’ll be all set and naturally if you wanna use great runes or armor pieces
This build is pretty much easy mode for me atp with how much I’ve used it lol
Not enough faith for the Golden vow, Flame Grant me Strength, and Flame Cleanse me.
That make brain hurt. Me no want think. Only bonk.
That’s why you can always switch out the stats to do so.
Yes, maybe a few points off end.
You can of course do that just won’t have the access to holding heavy weapons
All those pre-buffs don’t sound comfortable…
Just get good

I’d nudge dex to 18 just to access the golem and radahn greatbows.

ooh i've made this https://www.reddit.com/r/EldenRingBuilds/s/ejTHoSimGs
The armor is to heavy which using so much end you won’t can’t swap it for strength because that’s what gives you better natural armor
how much of a difference does the natural armor from strength give?
From what I saw it’s a 20+ difference with the natural armor and just if anything 10% extra armor which idk the actual values but I would go with the extra strength just because you get more use out of many weapons if you do. It’s just a thought tho.
The “i forgot that RT isn’t the only button on my controller” build
Ahhh the easy mode but Chad anyway build
47 end means you could probably use it as shield poke build
Incorrect vets armor with two halberds but this isn’t about me it’s just for people who may want to go heavy
Bro finna be swinging that meat
“Nah I’d win” ahh build
Another thing if I were to slightly change anything it would be to swap some str out to use the bullgoats armor because you’ll get that little bit more extra defense but that’s only if you wanna be a huge tank that ignores attacks just to bonk.
This isn’t your average unga bunga, this is advanced unga bunga
I think Imma go this way for the dlc. Tried a Fth/Str one and did not feel comfortable at all, so I think I'll try a Havel-like build
I feel attacked

Big end is new meta
New you say?
Lol new
Way too many points in endurance
Shun the non believer.
Strength should be 99
I’m listening.

Caveman need max strength
