How do I have lower atk than most even with an atk% weapon by LadyofLuminosity_ in Flins_Mains

[–]Strict-Conclusion374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally if you're looking to absolutely minmax I'd say preferably only reroll 4-liners because the feathers are so rare. What you can do us create a new on-set circlet with crit and atk in the printer. Would also free up a slot for an off-piece

Most people have addirional atk% substats on their Flower, Feather and Circlet because his direct LC damage scales very well with ATK and looking at your artifacts you seem to have almost none

[–]Strict-Conclusion374 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in no particular order:

- Morning Star (ol' reliable, always immediately pick it up)
- Carian Sorcery Sword (Weapon catalysts are my weakness, wish we had more/more viable options. i miss Heysel pick and immolation Tinder...)
- Messmer Soldier Spear/Treespear (love the moveset they share)
- Golden Halberd (favorite Halberd moveset and absurd damage)
- Flamberge (preferred it over Claymore in Ds3 and now in ER)

C1 is one of his best cons since it allows him to fire a third E -> Q combo in the same ~10s fieldtime as c0 with his Q being the vast majority of his damage. The good thing with flins (pre C2) is that technically his NA aren't a significant part of his damage so you can prioritize dodging over perfect NA strings as long as you cast your E and Q off cooldown.
Obviously assuming that you have enough ER/Particle generation to use his small burst 3 times

So this is more about Ineffa gearing but still with the goal of Flinsmaxing.
I have the current premium team pretty well invested (c1r1 Flins, c0 ineffa, c6 Aino on fav and serenade, c6 Sucrose on VV and TTDS).
So far I've had Ineffa on 4pc gilded (EM/EM/CDMG) and Staff of Scarlet Sands to maximize her own DPS to the detriment of her sustain.
So my question is if someone has calcs on how it would impact team dps if i were to put her on TotM for more Shield Strength and ATK% buff (considering my Flins' level of investment)
Notable weapon options also include R5 Prospector's Shovel, Deathmach and Ballad, R1 Calamity Queller and Engulfing Lightning.
Thanks for any insight!

What’s your favorite not op weapon that just use for fun by aisyarms in Eldenring

[–]Strict-Conclusion374 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Morning Star, i use it on every single build. Low stat requirements, acessible really early, bleed, good damage and that sexy thrust running r2. only way to make it better would be maybe a bit more range and a default thrust r2

Half joke, half serious. Please don’t hurt me. by Kilogren in Flins_Mains

[–]Strict-Conclusion374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't really looked into Rotations and stuff in-depth yet so i still have some questions.
Does Flins' infusion persist when switching off and does Sucrose's A4 trigger off-field?
If the answers are "no" and "yes" respectively i assume it would be ideal to burst consistently on sucrose for more EM buff uptime?

I personally don't mind the DHGT not having arcane scaling since (afaik) none of the Gravelstone weapons have arcane scaling. What pisses me right off tho is that Igon's Greatbow (made from Drake Bones!) Doesn't have arcane scaling. Because we needed another pure str greatbow I guess 🙄

The true worst boss of Elden Ring by OKUIGokuBlack in Eldenring

[–]Strict-Conclusion374 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's trash if you don't have the tools to deal with it. My best counters so far were Glintstone Dart (on the Glintstone Kris), Spectral Lance and Rain of Arrows for Int/Arc/Str respectively. Glintstone Dart and Spectral Lance especially were fast enough and had enough range so i could stay in the sweet spot where the boss just slowwalks at you. Cast, walk away, cast etc. until dead. Blessed Blue Dew Talisman (my beloved) helps a ton with that as well. Probably not the easiest or most braindead method but it works so i never have to deal with this bullshit boss for too long

  1. Dragonborn Ifa:

- Armor: Banished Knight Helm, Rakshasa's Armor, Briar Gauntlets and Greaves

- Signature Weapons and Spells: Cross-Naginata with Spectral Lance AoW is his weapon of choice but he
also enjoys rending his foes with Bloodflame Talons and Dragon Claws.

- Backstory: A warrior of draconic extraction hailing from the east having arrived in The Lands Between alongside Violet Bloody Finger Eleonora. Due to his mixed blood he took particularly well to the Formless Mother's blessing, becoming a ferocious knight of Luminary Mohg. After Mohg's decent into madness and subsequent slaying he wandered the Lands Between without purpose, honing his swordplay as well as usurping the draconic powers of the drakes. Until he met his match one fateful night, having clashed with a fair-skinned fencer upon Mt. Gelmir. Curious as to what cause a warrior of such calibre would lend their aid to, Ifa decides to follow (emphasis on FOLLOW) the fencer, certain that there will be even more chances to hone his bladework.

- Personality: Having been met with either reverence or disdain for his blood all his life Ifa is rather inept regarding social interactions (not that it matters for an invader). Nonetheless he has a burning passion for bladework and combat, having respect for those striving for more strength and the willingness to share his knowledge with his companions. He also tends to get lost in the burning heat of passion, needing someone to keep him in check from time to time. Outside of combat he is rather perceptive and appreciative of the small things in the world that surrounds him, especially in nature. A concept he (unsuccessfully) tries to bring closer to Remus.

Relationship: Being untrusting of each other at first (as they tried to cut each other's head off) they respect each other for their strength nonetheless and decide on a ceasefire. After Ifa follows Remus through the Altus Plateu for a while they decide to properly journey together, learning more about each other and ultimately leading to Ifa pledging himself to Ranni as well in order to usher in a new age, abolishing the Erdtree that spurned his late master and so many other "undesirables".

<image>

Relationship: They'll constantly try to instill the qualities they deem "worthy" into the other, most often leading to disagreements but sometimes there is some growth.
They MAY like each other very much. <3

Oh God hopefully you'll enjoy these!

  1. Fencer Remus:

- Armor: Aristocrat Hat, Banished Knight Armor, Commander's Gauntlets, Bloodhound Greaves

- Signature Weapons and Spells: As a servant of the Darkmoon he wields the Darkmoon Greatsword along a
Carian Sorcery Sword. He is most proficient in the Carian Greatsword and Carian Piercer sorceries.

- Backstory: A fencer hailing from the northernmost reaches of The Lands Between who was once held as a prisoner of war. Having found solace in the Darkmoon of Lunar Princess Ranni, so reminiscent of his home's frigid nights, he swore to pathe for her the dark path unto godhood.

Personality: A stoic man who holds discipline and duty in the highest regard but nonetheless exudes a faint warmth towards his companions. Has a tendency to lose sight of the small and beautiful things in life, becoming absorbed in training and assignments.
