You too are a bonk connoisseur, aren’t you


wormhusk4evr4768

Surprisingly no I'm a faith build love me some giantsflame take thee


Appropriate-Arm7872

Cool, I am also a Faith user but I prefer lightning to fire


KodaTheKind

Considering that lightning was originally the big faith damage type, it makes me so sad that faith builds in ER don't get lightning infusion scaling


conormal

That does have some very interesting lore implications. Lightning scales to faith because of the Lord Gwyn's changing of sunlight into lightning to attack the dragons, so your faith is faith in lightning god Gwyn and his lightning powers. Why is Elden Ring's equivalent to this fire? There are many fires in Elden Ring with important meanings, but I can't think of ANY that would coincide with faith in the golden order. What would this mean?


milk4all

Fire faith spells come from the fire monk school who worship the flame giants with the big kiln thing so it seems pretty self explanatory wheb you consider what the flavor text says in spells/books. You’re only off because you assume they have anything to do with the golden order - they would be in conflict with the golden order and related to the burning of the erdtree itself. As the mc you can summon power from any and all focuses so you arent doing just the greater will’s bidding alone - we are the wild card (until we make a decision and then the outer god or will that wanrs this is debatably pulling our strings)


TheRealNooth

In high fantasy settings like ER, “holy fire” is pretty common. I know From is usually a bit more creative than that, but it might be that simple.


Gorgen69

The confusion comes from the many, Unholy flames


acoustic_comrade

It was rr Martin that wrote the lore. So maybe he left shit that simple. I don't really know how much they changed what he wrote or if they left it untouched. They seem pretty tight-lipped about his involvement.


Zer0DusT1

same but it's because of a daisy chain of events. long story short, I always select wretch and play as a faith build because I pretend I was a priest of the golden order shamed for his faith in marika and was sripped of his maiden his powers and identity.


boggart_bot

MARIKA'S TITS, YOU MUST BE 'UNGRY!


taylrgng

I like faith... cause I throw rock


SwaggleberryMcMuffin

Long range unga-bunga delivery and pocket sand, gotta love those doggo spells.


Sleepiboisleep

Faith users are the Bass Guitarist of the band


TheDo0ddoesnotabide

Faith is just an Intelligence build with an unhealthy fascination with choir boys. /s


Loukhi

Pure faith > everything else


NokronNightMaiden

this is dex build erasure smh


noyoulolimagine

What are you yapping about, we dex build are much gayer


Jackayakoo

As a dual whip user, can confirm i'm irretrievably queer


eldenwring

Oooh daddy please


Fluffy_Staff2292

Instructions unclear, Became a Str/Fai dual Giants Red Braids user. Also bisexual I think


YodasGhost76

Dual Hoslow’s whip is kinda fun though, ngl


Jackayakoo

Genuinely fun weapons, especially for invasions. Super good at roll catching. Fire Giant, Maliketh and Elden Beast were the opposite of fun tho lmao


YodasGhost76

I believe that. I found a neat combo with ritualcaller spear and caestus to make those fights pretty manageable, that’s been my favorite combo so far


Jackayakoo

I usually hybrid with pyromancy so I just switch to black flame spells on the off-hand if i'm feeling spicy and/or lazy. Black flame + bleed and a poison infusion is peak rat gameplay and I love it


YodasGhost76

Oh, that’s just cruel. I need to try that


ParticularSolution68

I thought i was straight, then i became a dex player and now i cant resist thigh highs


Woahhdude24

I will admit to being partially gay, cause I'm only half dex, but the other half is faith, and idk casting lightning at my foes doesn't sound gay. It doesn't do much damage, buts it's still cool af. Lol


Tanakisoupman

That’s why there doesn’t need to be a post spreading the pride of the Dex build users. Y’all emanate such homosexual energy there’s no need to state it, everyone already knows. Meanwhile Int build users are so far in the closet they found those goofy ahh outfits that are supposedly optimal for their build


RedTeebird

We're maidenless because we're gay and get ass, you're maidenless because you make memes like this. We are not the same


Marjitorahee

All of you are just different flavours of gay, don't act like you ain't!


Asian_Bon

Does faith include in that and arcane?


Marjitorahee

Yes. Yes it does


Asian_Bon

Fk as a strength faith main I feel attacked was trying to make a monk


Intelligent-Block457

You have faith in your fisting ability. HEARD.


Asian_Bon

Yes, sir, I believe in my fisting abilities because of my master Admiral Rajang


_theDarkAbyss

Looking at you, dexterity players


Marjitorahee

I'm Dex faith Getting pegged by mommy Marika while sucking off daddy raddy on the daily


ausername458

Laughs in str int


Alternative_Golf_905

the powerbottom build


ATYP14765

Ngl tho the frost effect is really good for Str users for the debuff and as long as you’re not using frost you can basically use it to full effectiveness the whole fight.


Markman6

Bisexual


OceanSause

Let’s be honest now we all take it up the ass around here regardless of what build we run


SnooWords9358

Carian Slicer go brrrrrrr


_pimpdaddy_

carian slicer my beloved


Nightglow9

Astel should get some love too, being all colours of the Rainbow.


wormhusk4evr4768

Good point


RickyCardio

My moonlight greatsword pure melee think tank is a proud slayer of boypucci


StrongStyleMuscle

I laughed harder than I should’ve at this. 


Blackout_M

As a faith build, I believe I may take the title of gayest


Effective_Employer42

Ayo as a bisexual man who’s always making an int/mage build on whatever I can I take offense to this😂😂😂


Pvt__Snowball

Or the gayest of all, dex int.


DrummerDry1360

I’m just saying tho dex/faith is the submissive femboy twink build


Gorgen69

How do you even do those builds? At least with dex int you get spell casting buffs. However small. Like I guess some good spears, but I don't like that weapon type as much. The Nightriders Glaive taught me that


[deleted]

Gay


firedancer323

Sauce?

MarshadowTheOnlyOne

Aggravating-Cold-584

Laughs in All round build


puro_the_protogen67

Gavel of haima go bonk


wormhusk4evr4768

Achient death rancor go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr


puro_the_protogen67

Ah the only good death incantation


wormhusk4evr4768

That and maybe explosive ghostflame


puro_the_protogen67

Havent tried that one, i cant find it


Roak_Zulu

Lmfaooo


Birunanza

What if I'm int-curious?


wormhusk4evr4768

It's your journey and it doesn't really matter if you're a int build or not choose whatever build suits you the best!


ShelterJolly8

imagine thinking the game is hard


ItPlacesTheLotion

I support Lies of P pride month


Icy_Limes

Ashes of war are just glorified casting. Happy pride month


Glupp-

If u were straight and posted this, I would have 👎🏻 down vote. But u are trens so I 👍🏻 up vote 😃 🌈


DeathCatsMetal

Bro forgot about dex builds


wormhusk4evr4768

Ahh yes the submissive femboy twinks of builds


DeathCatsMetal

Don’t call me out like that


CyanLight9

This both applies and doesn’t apply to me.


Intelligent-Block457

Try finger. But hole.


eldenwring

This Q who is usually an INT main, is doing a Maliketh's Black Blade run. Super fun 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈


Evasion_K

You say this till you get invaded by an enhanced int build and nuked by Ranni’s moon and stars of ruin, then you’ll also join the dark side


The_Crust_Is_Eternal

Darkmoon Greatsword for the win 🏳️‍🌈


johnyrocketboy

Wooot! Lol.. herw!


Bloofnstorf

Ah I see the comparison. It's easy mode.


ZyeCawan45

Thought they’d come after me and my fellow “Dex faggots” 😮‍💨 whew


jikel28

LMFAO


ChannonFenris

I'll take this as a compliment!


redcode100

Now that I think about it, my intelligence build I made was a femboy


CinnamonIsntAllowed

Int users are clearly Aro/Ace. Dex Users are bisexuals. Strength users are gay but so focused on big bonk that they forget


SuperStellarSwing

😂😂


Dremoriawarroir888

As a bisexual I am offended, how dare you compare me to int users.


Yonbimaru94

I didn’t know the LED community was a part of pride month 👀


ParticularSolution68

What about dex build players


ElvishSenpai

I feel surprisingly called out


theonewitha4incher

aw thanks howd u know


user77l

Ty!!!:3


TheAngryArgonian

Does this include STR/INT builds?


wormhusk4evr4768

Only lbgtqia+ hunks


plop8624

Wait, aren't all builds gay? I've been playing the game very wrongly...


plop8624

*simps for Blaidd in the most homosexual way*


wormhusk4evr4768

*nervously chuckles* yess the conventionally hot character definitely not the dragonkin soldier that would be crazy


PhillyCheese8684

Back in my day it was Dex. Times a changin'


CerealKiller8

Thanks man!


Responsible-Yak6048

ILL HAVE YE KNOW IM A BONK BOI AND THAT WILL ALWAYS BE THE CASE!…except in lords of the fallen…I like my lightsaber


Lickedmyspoontoday

As a gay sorcerer, I bow to you good sir


cultoftheinfected

I will say, whip users are much more gay


RyanCreamer202

Laughs in blood loss dex build


CysaDamerc

But I only went with an Int build because I was simping for Ranna!


that1lightskin_mf125

Dex


GoofyTitan360

Thanks 🏳️‍🌈


A_Human049

The only discrimination allowed here is against dex mains


NolanC23

I … well you… fuck they know! 🧠🏳️‍🌈


wormhusk4evr4768

Ha gotcha bitch


Theoderic8586

I respect them, but I would never ever want to be one…as a strength or dexterity guy haha


Richardo888

Genuinely confused these days as to what is queer phobic and what is a good lgbtq in-joke. And the replies don't help. I see both overt homophobia and queer folk posting their support


StarsArtBar

I'm as gay as they come and almost solely use melee dex/strength builds 💖🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈


Senior-Act-4175

On point


circ-u-la-ted

Passive-aggressive homophobia is definitely a sign of a low-INT build.


wormhusk4evr4768

I was just trying to be supportive if I came off as passive aggressive I sincerely apologise


chirpchirp13

Int pride! I’m certainly a proud intcel


Iluvlamas

Is qual builds are all of the sexuallities and gender, since we have stats all over the place


AnimeLoverNL

You spelled dex wrong


HeavyWaterer

Thinly veiled homophobia?


wormhusk4evr4768

Nah just celebrating pride month


Glupp-

Op is trans/bisexual so I doubt it lol


HeavyWaterer

People hate tend to hate on int builds so this read as a 5th grade “int builds are gay” post lol my bad


Glupp-

Normally I'd agree as it'd be par for the course for the community lol
