Okay, here is my sharing about “Shadow of the Erdtree Bleed Build” from start to finish, just like a real person would.
Alright, so I jumped into this “Shadow of the Erdtree” DLC, right? And everyone’s going nuts about these crazy bleed builds. I’m like, “Okay, let’s see what the hype is all about.” First thing’s first, I gotta pick a weapon. Ended up going with a couple of katanas ’cause, you know, gotta look cool while slicing and dicing.
Then, I started messing around with different talismans. Found this one, the Lord of Blood’s Exultation, that boosts your attack power when something bleeds nearby. Pretty sweet, huh? I also grabbed the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia. This thing increases your attack power with successive hits, which works great since I’m swinging those katanas like a madman. Oh, and don’t forget the Shard of Alexander, which increases the attack power of weapon skills.
Stats, Stats, Stats
Now, for the stats, I pumped a bunch into Arcane. This is the key to making things bleed like crazy. I also put some points into Dexterity, because, well, katanas. And, of course, you need some Vigor so you don’t get one-shotted by every little thing that looks at you funny. I didn’t neglect Endurance either; gotta have that stamina to keep swinging those swords and dodging around. And a little Mind for good measure for those Ash of War skills.
Gearing Up
- Weapons: Two katanas. I chose the Rivers of Blood and the Uchigatana. The Rivers of Blood has a strong bleed effect, while the Uchigatana is great for quick attacks.
- Armor: I went for light armor to keep my rolls fast and nimble. The White Mask is a great choice because it boosts attack power when something bleeds nearby, which is all the time with this build.
- Talismans: Lord of Blood’s Exultation, Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, Shard of Alexander, and Millicent’s Prosthesis. The last one increases Dexterity and further boosts attack power with successive hits.
Let the Bleeding Begin!
With all that set up, I started running around, just slicing through enemies. It’s actually kinda nuts how fast things die. You get that bleed proc, and bam, huge chunks of health just vanish. Bosses, too, they melt pretty quick once you get that bleed going. I mean, it’s not like you’re invincible or anything, you still gotta dodge and use your skills, but man, it’s satisfying to see those big numbers pop up.
Honestly, this bleed build is a blast to play. It’s fast, it’s powerful, and it makes you feel like a total badass. If you’re looking for something new to try in “Shadow of the Erdtree,” definitely give it a shot. Just be prepared to see a lot of blood. A LOT of blood.
