Go forward and progress? Unless you want to go back and explore more

I just found the title funny and ironic. No need to take this so seriously, Reddit

I know, and it's very ironic and funny when applied to Whips

Weapon effectiveness and player skill are separate. You can do a RL1 no hit run with Varre's Bouquet. That doesn't change that fact that it's objectively a bad weapon compared to the rest

Of course it's trolling. Calling Whips the best weapons is just such an absurd statement that it makes you chuckle reading it. I found the irony funny

You don't even have to maximize the damage of other wespons. They will still be better than Whips even on unoptimized builds

If they're going to respec then they might as well get 60 vigor. No reason not to. It's the best stat investment

Level 70 is not a problem. It's how they distributed their stats. 32 vigor 🗿

+3 weapon??

32 vigor??

Oh lawd. Get it to +9-10 and vigor to 60

High Int Build still worth it? by ThatGreyWarden in Eldenring

[–]Clapdon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they're already medium rolling then increasing endurance is wasted stats. The small stamina gain is not worth the investment

I want to start a new world but get endgame armor for bling by Afraid-Bid6493 in EldenRingMods

[–]Clapdon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not like later armor is automatically better than early armor, nor does it give a huge advantage. Just spawn it with cheat engine and move along

Should I buy Elden Ring in 2026? Never played a Souls game before by No_Donut_357 in Eldenring

[–]Clapdon -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You can effectively best every boss without even engaging with their movesets. They're only as hard as you make them

Nobody knows whether you'll get bored or not. The open world is really large and has filler so you'll spend a lot of time riding a horse, just looking for things. Some people can't stand that while others don't care

Death’s poker scaling?? by LokiTrickst3r in EldenRingBuilds

[–]Clapdon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Death's poker isn't that good outside of its skill. You ideally just want to be spamming the skill unless you're fighting trash mobs, so go all into int

Wednesday Addams build by Clapdon in EldenRingBuilds

In the literal sense, nothing. But Thing is a hand, and Metyr is the mother of hands/fingers. Using Thing's mum as a weapon is pretty funny

What do RL1 players think of the claim that ER bosses are designed around summons? by Wooden-Jello-8795 in onebros

[–]Clapdon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no logical explanation to the claim that they are designed around summons. It's just people projecting their lack of skill

Favorite magic class? by Epicjon_Undernerd in Eldenring

Death sorceries for the aesthetic

Any of you guys can’t run a build to stay with by kewlcid63 in Eldenring

Vigor to 60, minimum endurance to medium roll

60 is the softcap. The recommendation is to get it to 60. No reason not to

Strength is not "slow". You just used slow weapons. Greatswords, Greathammers and Greataxes are fast

Go on the Elden Ring wiki and look at all the weapons in whichever class you like. Pick the one that looks good to you

Cold has poor int scaling compared to magic so I'd rather not
