When I say best I mean best in your opinion! That could mean making the game way easier or doing something that just makes it more fun I’m looking for all kinda answers!! Personally I only play PvE but if you have PvP builds you wanna share by all means!

My first play through of Elden ring I played with two colossal weapons and jump L1 was all I did and that got me all the way to Maliketh but I never beat him (I know I’m a casual plz don’t hate 🤦🏾‍♂️). My second play through I was an intelligence build and that was definitely a different experience but in a good way it just makes you play the game differently and I like the change up. Fire giant tho… we won’t talk about that LOOL. Finally for my third and most recent play through I used the star fists and washed the entire game LOOL. I’m someone who started with bloodborne and my weapon in that game was the blades of mercy and star fists is that on steroids 🤣🤣

So for me I’d say a build that focuses on stance damage with a weapon fast enough to hit multiple times in an attack window is definitely gonna be it for me!! Anything star fists for the win everytime LOOL
