1. Wing Stance Build

While this is the least broken build on the list, Wing Stance packs a punch with the right affinities. Using Ranni's Cameo, the damage from Wing Stance is boosted with a shorter delay, making it even more devastating. Here’s how to use it:

· Weapon: Heavy Mady +25, Wing Stance

· Armor: Rocksha Set, Divine Beast Head

· Talisman: Ranni's Cameo, Shard of Alexander, Blister Prosthesis, Two-Handed Sword Talisman

· Buffs: Golden Vow, Flame, Grant Me Strength

· Stats: 60 Vigor, 74 Strength, 26 Dexterity, 25 Faith

Tip: Try different affinities—cold or blood Affinity works wonders for stacking damage. This build thrives against most bosses with its quick successive hits and poise-breaking power.

 

2. Blood Sword Lance Build with Spinning Gravity Thrust

This build uses medium shields, particularly the Brass Shield, to deliver consistent damage while tanking hits. After patch 1.14, medium shields are more reliable than ever.

· Weapon: Blood Sword Lance +25, Spinning Gravity Thrust

· Shield: Brass Shield (75 Guard Boost)

· Talisman: Lord of Blood's Exultation, Shard of Alexander, Mist Prosthesis, Great Shield Talisman

· Buffs: Golden Vow, Flame, Grant Me Strength

· Stats: 60 Vigor, 45 Arcane, 40 Strength

Tip: The bleed build-up with this combo is incredibly strong, especially if you add the White Mask for extra damage. Utilize your shield to block and create windows for massive counter-attacks.

 

3. Overhead Stance All-Fire Build

One of the most fun builds on this list, combining Flame Art with Overhead Stance gives this build serious damage output. Add fire incantations for extra burst.

· Weapon: Flame Art Greatsword +25, Overhead Stance

· Armor: Ranni's Cameo, Shard of Alexander

· Talisman: Fire Scorpion Charm, Thorny Tier

· Buffs: Golden Vow, Flame, Grant Me Strength, Burn O' Flame

· Stats: 65 Faith, 60 Vigor, 23 Dexterity

Tip: Timing is key—land Burn O' Flame and Flame of the Fel God in opportune moments for heavy AoE damage.

 

4. Moonveil Katana Build

The Moonveil Katana build has been reworked to deal insane damage in patch 1.14, including hitting 10,000 damage to large enemies.

· Weapon: Moonveil Katana +25

· Armor: General Radahn's Set for maximum poise

· Talisman: Carian Filigreed Crest, Magic Scorpion Charm, Godfrey Icon

· Buffs: Magic-infused spells to complement the Ash of War

· Stats: 60 Intelligence, 45 Vigor

Tip: This build excels at mid-range combat. Use the Moonveil's Ash of War to stagger enemies and quickly follow up with charged attacks for burst damage.

 

5. Beast Claw Build

The Beast Claws have received a significant speed buff with their charge attack in patch 1.14, making this build perfect for aggressive players who want to mix physical damage with bleed build-up.

· Talisman: Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, Shard of Alexander, Lord of Blood’s Exultation

· Buffs: Golden Vow, Flame, Grant Me Strength

Tip: Combo your jump attacks into Savage Claws for consistent bleed damage while maintaining heavy physical damage output.

 

6. Cold Guts Greatsword Build

For colossal weapon lovers, this build is all about using Royal Knight’s Resolve with the Cold Greatsword to maximize your damage output after the latest buff to colossal weapon speed.

· Talisman: Alexander's Shard, Great-Jar's Arsenal

7. Ranni's Twinblade Magic Build

Medium shields have seen a rise in utility, and Spinning Gravity Thrust turns this defensive style into an offensive powerhouse. This build is perfect for those who prefer balanced combat.
