In this part of the video, the presenter introduces a build featuring what they claim is the best strength weapon in Elden Ring, the Starfist. They praise its high damage output, fast DPS, and ability to break enemy poise rapidly. The weapon can be found in the capital of Leyndell, near the Coliseum. Even if the player has transformed the capital into the Capital of Ash, the weapon remains accessible. The presenter highlights that the Starfist, despite being a fist weapon, deals significant damage, especially with charged heavy attacks. It requires minimal stats to wield and has a natural bleed effect, with the possibility to change its Ash of War. They recommend the Crack Blade Ash of War for its 15% damage boost and 10% poise damage boost, although it doesn’t alter the weapon’s scaling. Thus, it’s advised to apply it in a heavy variant to maximize its effectiveness.

In this part of the video, the speaker provides a detailed guide on optimizing a weapon build for a level 150 character, with a primary focus on strength. Key actions include setting 50 points into Vigor, 10 into Mind, 26 into Endurance, 80 into Strength, 10 in Dexterity, 10 in Intelligence, 33 in Faith, and 10 in Arcane. The initial class chosen was a wretch, but alternatives like the hero class are suggested for more strength. The build leverages heavy variant weapon scaling and utilizes the golden vow and howl of Shabiri for damage boosts, with the option to use flame grant me strength for safer play. Recommended talismans for maximizing damage output include the Ritual Sword Talisman, Axe Talisman, Rotten Wing Insignia, and Marika’s Soreseal. Additionally, mixing the Strength Knot Tear and Stonebarb Cracked Tear in the Wondrous Physick is advised to further enhance physical and poise damage, making the build highly effective against bosses.
