Updated August 13, 2024 by Erik Petrovich : Now that the Elden Ring DLC has been out for a while, it's no secret that General Radahn makes a return at the end of the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, as Miquella's consort, and as the final boss. His new armor set and weapons can be purchased after defeating this version of Radahn, and this guide has been updated to reflect these new Elden Ring General Radahn build options. The Starscourge cosplay wouldn't be complete without a series of Gravity-based attacks, too, so this guide has been updated to also include some new recommendations on the best spells and Ashes of War for the best General Radahn build Elden Ring players can put together.

The best side weapon to use with Moonveil is another katana to unlock the Powerstancing moveset unique to the weapon class. Powerstancing in Elden Ring lets players trade off defense for raw damage output, practically dealing twice the amount of damage as normal.

However, in a game where death can come at a moment's notice, some players would love the idea of using items that can save them from a tough spot, especially if they are aware of exactly what said thing does in the game. In this regard, Detailed Item Descriptions will prove to be a great help, even if some people feel like it goes against the spirit of what FromSoftware Updates's titles are all ab

He's crucial to obtaining the Nagakiba katana and another strong weapon that may or may not become available depending on which among the four methods the players choose. For more details and to better weigh which of the methods yield the best rewards or the least amount of effort, here's a hands-on guide on obtaining the Nagakiba.

Spells that deal AoE damage, like the Rotten Breath Incantation or Meteorite Sorcery, are useful to Moonveil users too, though they do require more careful stat planning. Rock Sling is a classic among Magic-wielders for its impressive ability to break enemy posture with Physical damage, not Magic damage, which can give a good opportunity for a series of attacks when you successfully stagger an enemy.

In addition to his armor and weapons, there are Talismans and other items that can play into the strengths of a Starscourge-inspired build. The Carian Filigreed Crest reduces FP consumption for weapon skills, which is incredibly helpful for the Starscourge Greatsword's high-FP Ash of War. The Shard of Alexander increases the damage of this ability, too. Choose the Claw Talisman if you want to spend most of your time in close combat, or the Arrow's Reach Talisman to increase the range and effectiveness of the Lion Greatbow .

Both of these issues are addressed with a simple mod that allows all weapons to be buffed, while buffs applied from spells last forever. Suffice it to say, players will love the dynamic nature of combat following this mod, which lets players wail on bosses and strong enemies while being buffed to kingdom c

With the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion introducing several powerful armor sets, as well as new deadly bosses that primarily use Holy damage, every Tarnished should equip the best Holy negation armor they can find. This list has been updated to include not only individual armor pieces with the highest Holy defense but also the best full armor sets to equip when facing Holy damage in the g

It will struggle to turn quickly, but the hitbox on its stomps and lava is surprisingly large, so it's important to react quickly even though the charge itself is slow. Only go for hits when necessary, roll into its sweeping attacks to take advantage of I-frames, and use these rare opportunities to get a hit or two in.

Cinquedea : The only useful thing that the Cinquedea does is boost Bestial Incantations—which are relatively lackluster—but as it stands that passive ability cannot outweigh the relatively poor base stats and inability to upgrade it without using Somber Smithing Stones. It's also in a difficult hidden location in Elden Ring that, as of Patch 1.03, is currently near impossible to obt

Investing in Arcane is not recommended for this build as it will not increase your ability to deal Bleed buildup. Moonveil has a relatively low 50 Bleed damage with each hit, but it does not scale with Arcane and cannot be infused to have Arcane scaling, so increasing this stat will not affect Moonveil's Bleed.

Fire Knight's Shortsword : One of the best Elden Ring daggers added in the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is this Fire damage-infused dagger. The Fire Knight's Shortsword scales very well with Faith and the Flame infusion, which boosts its Fire damage further. There are a lot of Fire resistant enemies in the DLC, but this is a great one to bring back to the base g

Once the Tarnished have done this, they will need to travel from the Capital of Ash Site of Grace, heading in the general direction of the Colosseum. Once they have found Goldmask's body, they can loot him once, reset the area, and loot him again to get the Gold Waistwr
