Elden Ring: Madness Builds Are Deranged

Invasions using a madness build!

[clivebazzington]

It’s these somewhat “niche” status builds that can really catch somebody off guard. Plenty of people always have frost boluses or bleed boluses on hand, but not so much for the less seen status builds like a madness build focusing on Vyke’s War Spear or a sleep build centered around the St. Trina’s Torch

[dangerdeevee]

You know what we want Chase. Give us Trina's Torch and I'll release the hostages

[lexafram]

Really sad that there was not a single madness grab in that video. That incantation looks so cool and its definitely usable with the steel perfume

[-sl]

you know what else is madness? Actually using St. Trina's Torch !!

[oatmeal]

Statuses are always powerful, but those that force an opponent into a state of vulnerability are perhaps even more so. Sleep and madness are incredible tools due to the fact that they are impossible to dodge, unlike blood or frost procs. Rather conveniently, all of the madness incants share the fire damage type with one of the strongest, most accessible sleep weapons - Stm Trina's torch - as well as sharing faith scaling, making them incredibly effective to wield alongside each other

I've been wanting to try the madness build, but every time I get ready to respec I look at my two trusty St. Trina's torches and just can't do it. 😂

I recommend St Trina's Torch for it is unworked

[luke-ilnr]

Sleep incantations would be so cool. And more sleep weapons
Can't wait for the dlc

[vinicciusoliveira]

I've heard St. Trina's torch is maddeningly good

[KatyaAbc]

Seeing "I LIKE BIG BALLS", and "Mantis", and Chase casually dropping a life wisdom "There are two kinds of people in the world" was actually hilarious.

[luke-ilnr]

I recommend st trinna torch for it is unhinged

[astralknightmage]

Usually the best way to avoid madness is to get plenty of sleep. St. Trina torch excells in that.


Edit: AM I NOT WRONG?

[EinSilverRose]

Really hope the DLC introduces more Madness weapons. The great spear is great and all but Madness really needs more variety.
Same for Sleep and Poison really.

[futuristicbus]

Madness spells are really fun, that first invasion was absolutely hilarious.

Damn that Megumin build was creative as hell

[RafelJaggai]

Suncrusher isnt here yet, im filling in, you know the drill, its unending

[Psykout]

"Why am I so scary?"
Because a man that waits for you to come back to kill you, he wants more than just the kill, and that is scary.

4:31 "Defeat FutanariEnjoyer" you wanna run that by me again chief?

[Dogami]

Chasethebro invaiding the Crimson demon Megumin, the mage of explosions to invade futanarienjoyer X, D

Sometimes i like the names of the characters what players use in the game.

1st off, love the content Chase! You're 1 of my favourite DS/ER content creators, so I'll digest any PvP videos you make.. but since you asked for suggestions:

Would like to see more parry + crit build gameplay! You inspired me to play a dark int-based melee character (with some chaos infusions with my dagger for example bc of the hornet ring bug) in ds3 and it was my fav build of all time using caestus and a variety of melee weapons like the rapier, estoc, gottards, crow quills, Astoria GS, onikiri & ubidachi, frayed blade, darkdrift, etc.. my fav setup by far was just a caestus and rapier/estoc tho! I know you recently did a lightning build that's similar, even tho you've already done it I'd love to see more of it!

That or for something a little different I'd suggest a fast roll spell blade build. Int-based scaling with a few spells to pew pew back at those annoying wizards thinking they're safe in the back!

Now we are only missing a Deathblight build video, right?
