The video details a Dragon Priestess build for a game, which the community highly voted for. Central to this build is the use of Dragon Cold incantations, particularly the Knight's Lightning Spear and Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike. These spells are highlighted for their range, damage output, and effectiveness in breaking enemy stances, making them ideal against medium to large-sized bosses. Alternative spells like Honed Bolt and various talismans such as the Flock Canvas Talisman and Lightning Scorpion Charm are suggested to enhance lightning damage and physical protection.
Key attributes for the build include a high Faith level (80-99), 55 Vigor for health, 38 Mind for spellcasting FP, and 20 Endurance. The gear optimization includes the use of sacred seals like the UR Tree Seal and Gravelstone Seals for enhancing Dragon Cult incantation damage. Additional equipment and items such as the Death Knight armor set and Priestess Heart offer tailored benefits in terms of damage and protection. For Great Runes, Rons is preferred for its FP, stamina, and health boosts, though Orgos is noted for its significant health increase.

In this part of the video, the creator showcases their Dragon Priestess build, which emphasizes the use of Dragon Cold incantations. The community voted for this build with over 109,000 votes. A focal point of the build is the new incantation, Knight’s Lightning Spear, noted for its impressive range and ability to deal damage even if casting is interrupted. This spell can be charged for additional damage and excels in stance breaking bosses, making them vulnerable to further attacks. The creator also mentions using a Charged Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike to finish off bosses once they are stance-broken, especially effective against medium to large-sized bosses. Additionally, they discuss other aspects of the build, such as the limited usefulness of Dragon Bolt for damage negation compared to Golden Val, and the utility spells like Lightning Spear for single targets and Lightning Strike for small groups of enemies.

In this segment of the video, the discussion focuses on effective spells and items for dealing with challenging enemies in a game. The “Honed Bolt” is highlighted as a viable alternative to the “Knight’s Lightning Spear” for hard-to-kill enemies due to its quick casting after the initial slow cast. “Ancient Dragon’s Lightning Strike” is recommended for large area-of-effect (AOE) damage, particularly useful against medium to large enemies and when staggered bosses are present. The “Electrocharge” spell is deemed ineffective due to its minimal damage and the lack of synergy with other buffs or stance damage on bosses.
For sacred seals, the “UR Tree Seal” is advised due to high Faith scaling, and the “Gravelstone Seal” is used in the off-hand to further enhance Dragon Cult incantation damage. In New Game Plus, using two “Gravelstone Seals” is slightly more effective than the “UR Tree Seal” and one “Gravelstone Seal.” The segment also mentions the “Priestess Heart,” a reusable item that transforms the player into a Dragon Priestess, offering modest damage negation and resistance benefits, while being very light and facilitating light rolling in the build.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses a build strategy focused on maximizing damage output while navigating limited protection and poise. The Knight’s Lightning Spear is highlighted for its effectiveness even when animations are interrupted. A +20% damage boost item is recommended for Dragon Cult incantations, with no FP cost, preferable over constant FP-draining buffs. An alternative is the Death Knight armor set, offering a total of 8% damage boost and better protection, but it’s less aggressive and provides lower damage than the Priestess Heart route. The speaker also details key talismans to further enhance lightning damage and physical protection, such as Flock Canvas Talisman, Godfree Icon, Lightning Scorpion Charm, and Dragon Crest Great Shield Talisman. The emphasis is on balancing damage output and survivability while progressing through the game.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses optimizing gear and attributes for a specific build. They suggest different talismans for various situations, such as Dragon Crest Great Shield Talisman for boss fights and Ritual Sword Talisman for damage boosts at full health. The build shown uses Plus 7 Scot tree fragment upgrades, demonstrating that higher levels will yield even more damage. The attributes are detailed, emphasizing high Faith at 80 and plans to increase it to 99 for maximizing damage. Other key attributes include 55 Vigor for health, 38 Mind for spellcasting FP, and 20 Endurance for light rolling with equipment. The speaker advises selecting physique flasks that boost lightning damage, stamina recovery, stance damage, or protection based on battle needs.

In this part of the video, the creator discusses strategies and recommendations for a Dragon Priestess build. They highlight the viability of using Knight’s Lightning Spear for stance breaking bosses and following up with Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike to avoid taking damage. For Great Runes, they suggest Rons for the benefits to FP, stamina, and health, but also mention Orgos for its significant health increase, which can be crucial given the build’s low protection. They address the challenge of dealing with enemies at close range, proposing either punching them or switching to the Coded Sword, a faith-scaling weapon that deals holy damage. This segment concludes with the creator announcing future builds, expressing interest in a bow build, and inviting viewers to suggest and comment on other potential builds.
