In the video, the creator ashen1 explains how to become overpowered early in the game "Elden Ring" by using the Dragon Communion Rotten Breath incantation, which inflicts scarlet rot on bosses such as Marget and Radahn. The process involves specific steps and items: starting with the Prophet class for its favorable stats, obtaining a gold pickled foul foot, the Reduvia dagger for its bleed effect, five dragon hearts (though one suffices initially), and collecting around 90,000 souls along with golden seeds and a sacred tier. Key locations include the Agile Lake North Grace, Fort Farath site of grace, and the Cathedral of Dragon Communion in South Caelid. After leveling up appropriately, players must defeat a giant dragon using the dagger and maximize rune gains with the gold pickled foul foot. The Rotten Breath incantation requires at least 15 faith and 15 arcane, and can be obtained from the Cathedral of Dragon Communion after a specific teleporter trap quest starting at the Burnt Dragon Ruins. The video concludes by demonstrating the effectiveness of this strategy and hints at a future guide for obtaining an upgrade to the Dragon Communion Seal.

In this part of the video, the creator, ashen1, explains how to significantly overpower early in Elden Ring using the Dragon Communion Rotten Breath incantation. The method involves using the ‘rotten breath’ to inflict scarlet rot on bosses, making encounters much easier. He begins by showcasing how effective this strategy is against key bosses like Marget and Radahn.
To achieve this, players need specific items and conditions: a gold pickled foul foot, the Reduvia dagger, five dragon hearts (though only one is necessary), around 90,000 souls for leveling, some golden seeds, and a sacred tier. Starting with the Prophet class is recommended due to its decent faith and arcane stats.
Key steps include obtaining a gold pickled foul foot from the beach and encountering an NPC invader to acquire the Reduvia dagger, which is advantageous for its bleed effect. The video illustrates the initial stages of this strategy, emphasizing the ease with which bosses can be defeated using scarlet rot.

In this part of the video, the narrator guides viewers through the steps needed to complete a specific path in the game. Starting from the Agile Lake North Grace, players should first pick up a Sacred Tear and use a secret teleporter. The goals include reaching the Fort Farath site of grace while collecting a Golden Seed, another site of grace before the dragon bridge, and plundering graves for runes. These runes, combined with those from a recent NPC fight, should be sufficient to level up and effectively use the reduvia dagger. Once at Fort Farath, players should level up their stats and then attack a giant dragon using the dagger’s bleed effect. Just before the dragon dies, they should use the gold pickled foul foot to maximize their gains, resulting in a significant amount of runes and 5 dragon hearts, which can be spent on faith, mind, and arcane upgrades.

In this part of the video, it’s explained that you need at least 15 faith and 15 arcane to use the dragon altar, which grants the rotten breath incantation. The speaker then guides viewers to the Cathedral of Dragon Communion in South Caelid. The journey begins at the Burnt Dragon Ruins in Limgrave, where you must enter a cellar with rats and open a chest that activates a teleporter trap. After sneaking out of the cave and reaching a site of grace, you head south to the cathedral. At the cathedral, you can exchange dragon hearts for the rotten breath incantation. The video demonstrates the effectiveness of rotten breath on an enemy and mentions that holding the button down extends the incantation’s duration. The video concludes by noting that rotten breath inflicts scarlet rot on mobs and bosses, and teases an upcoming video on obtaining the dragon communion seal, which boosts dragon incantations.
