I'm about to start my 4th playthrough
My first 3 builds were str/fth, int and quality
What should I choose next?

Nice try, Jerry, you're not fooling anyone

What is the deal with mods? I bought the game on Xbox Series back in the day and now I'm on PC. Pirated the game to see how it performs and it lacks DLSS and has chromatic aberration forced plus it has awful sharpening filter too.
I can get rid of these with mods.
But not sure is the anticheat going to ban me online? I'm not going to pay for a license if that's the case, might just play it offline pirated then.
>>
>>738985553
Definitely arcane.
>the obvious powerstance curvedsword/twinblade bleed builds
>bloodfiend's Arm
>ancient meteoric ore greatsword
>blood blade
>spectral spear
>venomous fang + poisoned flower blooms twice
>dragon themed spellcaster, even the physical only communion spells are insanely good
>>
>>738985706
You can launch the game with the anti-cheat turned off
If you want to pirate it, you will need to make it seem like the game is actually in your steam library, otherwise some mods won't work
>>
>>738985791
Ehh, that's nonsense retarded advice.
If I launch the game with the anti-cheat turned off that essentially negates the point of buying the game because it's offline.
Please do not post if you don't have anything intelligent to reply with.

>>738985553
Pure STR or arcane
>>738985706
Stop being brown

>>738985553
You should choose to play an actually good game.
>>
>>738985553
arcane and go all in on poison

This guy knows, except he forgot about the DRILL SWORD THAT CAN PIERCE THE HEAVENS.

ER is such a meme. A Str build can literally do everything. You are even a better mage than mages because storm blade works just like a spell and is faster and more damaging than most spells and it costs virtually no FP.

>>738985553
Level 1, do it or no balls

>>738985706
You'll want to use Seamless Co-op if you want any form of multiplayer with even the most basic of mods installed.
You're right that vanilla graphic options are hot garbage. I have an ultrawide monitor and if I didn't mod them out, I'd have to play with fucking black bars artificially rendered over 1/3rd of my screen. Everything's still rendered behind them, too, so you still pay the performance cost for all the things you can't see. Between that and the forced chromatic aberration, playing vanilla isn't really viable.

Bloody Helice might be my favorite weapon

>>738985553
INT again, it’s the only way to have fun.
>>
>>738989886
INT is just FAI but worse.
>>
>>738989886
The only way to not have fun is to interact with the actual combat system as little as possible? Sounds like you wanna play a different game lmao

full arcane build so you can statusmaxx, rush the antstur rapier and have fun

Retard. If you go pure caster, FTH is absolutely worse than INT.

Nah. I'd win.

try the blue balls build

elden ring is only fun one time, maybe twice if you play without a guide

>>738985553
Str/Int

Cast Fist
Cast big sword
Cast many sword
Cast delayed sword
Cast Big hammer

Smash with big stick. You know why you unga AND bunga.
>>
Try dex/faith, and mix up melee and close-range casting with things like catch flame or bestial sling early, and later with things like O, Flame! and the aspects of the crucible spells.
Enchant small, fast weapons like daggers or curved swords with lightning or black flame blade.
Get to at least 40 dex sort of early and use radagon's icon for maximum cast speed, then pump faith to 80 once you're satisfied with your red/blue/green bars. Prophet or Confessor start

The most fun way to experience NG is a level 200 build that can use 95% of weapons and spells on the fly without having to respec
you should be proficient enough at the game at this point to find everything laughably easy anyways
tears and equipment if you need extra stat points
this is the build i use
>>
>>738985553
pure dex. dual bandits curved swords shred the game. eventually get the claws of night and break the game.
>>
>>738985553
get bloodflame blade straight away for 12 faith, apply to endure work claws and just pump hp and see how easy the game really is

or do a themed build and get your shit pushed in because fashion means no poise.

after like 20 builds i'm a little cynical about elden, I miss souls.
>>
>>738993435
this was my main except base game 18 arc cap not 50stupid high because dlc spells didn't exist yet, its ok. mlgs + faith spells actually slaps. but anyone with an optimized build will still basically oneshot you in pvp.

also its 60 vig for dlc, not optional. and if you used scudatree blessings you didn't beat the game.
>>
>>738993435
Does this build even survive the higher NG plus runs?
>>
>>738993968
if you ever actually played ng+7 or got gravelorded into one you would already know the answer is don't get hit ever and stats are now meaningless.
>>
>>738994183
That doesn't sound particularly fun at all.
>>
>>738994319
It's not, and half the fun is exploring to pick up new items but when you already have all the items what's the point? NG+ is an absolute meme, just make a new character.
>>
int/fth death build
>>
>>738994183
>>738994452
not true ng+ is great for pushing your build, i'm in ng+76
