For rune farming, strategies such as defeating specific bosses like one at Lena's Rise and an ancient dragon at Fort Faroth are highlighted, with suggestions to maximize runes using a Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot. Valuable items and incantations, notably the Rotten Breath, are recommended for their powerful effects in combat.

In this part of the video, the creator provides a quick guide on building an overpowered faith build in an early game within an hour and a half. They recommend starting with the Prophet class and choosing the Golden Seed as a keepsake for an extra flask. The first steps include hitting three Sites of Grace: First Step, Church of Elleh, and Gatefront Ruins. Resting at these three sites grants the player a spirit steed. For weapons, the Uchigatana from Death-Touched Catacombs in Northeast Limgrave is suggested, with an alternative of Claymore from Castle Morne for strength builds. A shield that blocks 100% physical damage is advised, especially for beginners. Finally, heading south to the Weeping Peninsula and reaching Castle Morne Rampart Site of Grace to grab the Flame of Frenzy spell is recommended to enhance the build’s power.

In this segment, the video details steps to navigate through a church on a wooded plateau that contains a sacred tier, located in a village afflicted by frenzy—a powerful fire that induces madness. The narrator advises cautious progression due to the dangerous frenzy attacks. The objective is to acquire a frenzy attack that uses little FP and deals significant damage.

Next, the video moves to the Third Church of Marica to collect the Flask of Wondrous Physique and another tier for enhancing healing capabilities. Behind a statue, a portal in the brush leads to the northeast map, specifically to a site called Lena’s Rise.

Before using the portal, the narrator suggests backtracking to Gatefront Ruins to obtain a whetstone knife from a chest, which will enable adding faith-scaling Ash of War to the uchigatana. Then, at Lena’s Rise, the video explains how to gain 150k runes and another powerful Ash of War, Bloodhound Step, by defeating a boss that appears at night.

In this part of the video, the speaker provides a detailed strategy for quickly killing a boss to acquire 40,000 souls. The key action is quickly taking a direct route up a hill to make the knight’s cavalry despawn and fall off a ledge. The speaker suggests investing these souls into vigor and mind for enhanced spell casting and health. They also mention gathering powerful incantations and weapon upgrades.

The speaker advises heading to the Gatefront Ruins to obtain the whetstone knife, which can enhance the katana with holy damage using the sacred blade. Another recommended ash of war is golden vow, which boosts attack power, defense, and weapon scaling off of faith.

To upgrade weapons, players should explore caves marked on the map for smithing stones and visit a spot near the Warmaster’s Shack to obtain them from a giant-struck statue. Upgrading weapons is crucial for becoming overpowered early in the game.

Finally, the speaker advises visiting the Church of Ella to obtain the spirit calling bell for summoning spirits during difficult battles and traveling to Lena’s Rise to access consumable runes in Caled.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses strategies for acquiring runes and valuable items in a later game area. First, players should head to Fort Faroth and confront a high-rune-dropping ancient dragon. To maximize rune gain, players should obtain a Gold-Pickled Fowl Foot from Limbgrave. They should then attack the dragon’s tail using a bleed weapon like the Uchigatana for efficient damage. After defeating the dragon, players are rewarded with five dragon hearts and approximately 100k runes. Players can then use these runes to enhance their character’s attributes and prepare for acquiring powerful dragon incantations at the Cathedral of Dragon Communion in southern Caelid. The video particularly highlights the Rotten Breath incantation for its effectiveness in applying continuous damage during boss fights, recommending 12 arcane to access these abilities.

In this part of the video, the focus is on using specific strategies to maximize damage in a game. The speaker suggests opening with frostbite to increase subsequent damage by 20%, then applying scarlet rot for continuous damage over time. It’s recommended to allocate a couple of blue flasks for these abilities. The player should return to the market, summon distractions like wolves, and use rotten breath and an upgraded weapon like the sacred uchigatana. These tactics can help dominate the initial hours of gameplay. The video concludes with an encouragement to subscribe and leave comments for more content.
