Black Flame builds are truly a feast for eyes in Elden Ring. Not only do they deal exceptional damage to enemies, but they also look dope and have status build-up.
We have here the Blackflame Spellblade build which is an evolution of Black Flame apostle Faith Build. If you are stuck with the Black Flame Faith Build at level 50, you can go for the Black Flame Spellbuild build made for Level 100 players.
So, the Black Flame Spellblade uses weapons that can use certain Ash of War on them, while all of them come with the Bleed Buildup. Further, you will have certain Spells to Enchant your weapons or Conjure Black Flames.
It is a cool build and this article is all about it. Without any further delay, let’s get going into the details of this spectacular build
There are various weapons you can use for this build. We already mentioned that all the weapons should have Bleed Effect, while they should be compatible with certain Ash of War we will mention afterward.
Cross Naginata: Our First weapon is Cross Naginata and it is the primary weapon we will be using for this Elden Ring Blackflame Spellblade Build. The reason for using Cross naginata is that it fills the bleeding effect faster after using Ash of War Repeating Thrust.
Furthermore, when you are using it with the Black Flame, the range and the moveset work together to kill enemies.
You can also use other weapons like;
Flamberge
Nagakiba
Uchigatana
Scythe
For this build specifically, you will have to use four different Ashes of War. Having four different Ashes is truly crazy but there is a reason behind it. Ashes of War weapon art are much faster or hit multiple times.
Ash of War Repeating Thrust
Ash of War Spinning Slash
Ash of War Double Slash
Ash of War Sword Dance
To use the spells you need something on your hand like;
Godslayer’s Seal: In this build, this seal works well becuase of the Godslayer incantation boost. While its requirements and scaling are also perfect with this build
The Attribute Required for this seal are 4 on Strength and 27 on Faith
Attribute Scaling is S for Faith and D for Strength. Being a Black Flame Faith build, the scaling works exceptionally.
There isn’t a specific armor that you can use for this build. You need something in between, that can provide good defense while also being on the medium to the light side. Just keep in mind that you shouldn’t heavy roll and you are good to go. Our recommendation is to stick with;
Black Flame Monk Set: This set looks great with this build and also has the same name. The dark tone to it is one thing but the defense is also really great. Altogether weight is around good enough for your medium roll. The set includes
Black Flame Monk Greaves
Black Flame Monk Gauntlet
Black Flame Monk Hood
Black Flame Monk Armor
