Most Fun Elden Ring Builds to Play 2023 - Funnest Builds Ranking in Patch 1.09.1 Elden Ring

The list of Elden Ring most fun builds for 1.09.1 is ranked by Your Average Gamer, each build introduces the best ER weapons, talismans, spells, and stats.

Top 5 - Golden Order Fundamentalist Build

Starting at number five, we have a Golden Order build. The Golden Order Fundamentalist build ended up being a little bit of a wild one because we realized how good triple rings of light ended up being against the larger targets in the game like the dragons and such, it absolutely destroys them and the coated swords are really fun holy weapon. Maintains an A in faith scaling while also doing a reasonable amount of posture damage, it is quite good, it's also fairly lightweight, and it was really fun mixing in the golden order incantations with the coated sword.

Stats

Vigor: 50
Mind: 23
Endurance: 26
Strength: 16
Dexterity: 15
Intelligence: 40
Faith: 45
Arcane: 14

For stats, this is intelligence and faith build, you're going to concentrate though on faith. Once you get to 45 of both you're continuing to level up, level faith after that, but the golden order seal has the highest scaling in the game and it works really well for faith and intelligence builds.

Top 4 - Rotten Duelist Strength Build

Next one up that we have here is the rotten duelist build which ended up hitting really hard and was able to proc rot really well with the addition of war cry. War cry actually has a multiplayer on it, so when you're using a strength build like this one, we have it on heavy affinity as far as the rotten duelists actually get a multiplier on the status effect, it's like two to three times as much. So every hit is going to build up really quickly, most of the time two hits on any boss that you can proc rot and you're going to get rot on them. Special attack you get from war cry or any of the roars, there's a couple better ones, worse ones, you usually get a special attack as far as the charge attack goes and they all seem to have that multiplier as far as it goes, war cry is really accessible. With the special charge attacks, we can get around 3000 damage per hit, so getting that amount per hit while also being able to proc rot is a nice little bonus on top of everything else, and it ends up turning into a really solid build.

Top 3 - All Fire Faith Build Upgraded

The next fun Elden Ring build to use here is a variant on the all-fire build, this is an incredibly powerful one that's faith-based, this one can destroy bosses while also having a really good time because it's really versatile. Now faith really does have that versatility because you have fire damage, you have lightning damage, you have holy damage, but more important to the point is you can throw a flame on or pretty much anything and get really high AR as well.

Top 2 -Posture Breaker Build

The next is the posture breaking machine build, this does incredible posture damage. Square Off is seriously underrated, even though it's locked behind straight swords, it does 40 poise damage on its attack and then if you combine it with glintblades, you get a total of 80 poise or posture damage per each, first interaction with the boss and then upon activating again, you can get posture breaks crazy. It is the definition of a heavy hitting critical hit build, this is definitely going to be one of those critical hit builds that can take on bosses and knock them down frequently, if not more than any other build because we can't think of many other things that are going to get you 80 poise damage upon first interaction. Damage on Square Off isn't bad either as far as the charge attack goes, it's about double what you get on a normal charged attack and again 40 poise damage on each hit in combination with the glintblades totals 80, which is a phenomenal amount to take on any of the bosses even the late game bosses in Elden Ring. When you're fighting a boss with a build like this, they're just going to be constantly poise broken time and time again, so if you're looking for an easy mode in Eldon Ring, this is a setup you definitely need to check out. You don't have to worry about investing in magic or intelligence or anything because you're just using the glint blades for the poise damage because each glint blade does 10 for a total of 40, you're not worried too much as far as the damage goes there, you're going to go more for a dexterity or a strength build depending on what affinity you settle for.

Gears

Main Weapon: Nobel’s Keen Slender Sword
Offhand Weapons: Giant’s Seal, Rogier’s Rapier
Helm: Leyndell Knight Helm
Gloves: Leyndell Knight Gauntlets
Boots: Leyndell Knight Greaves
Armor: Leyndell Knight Armor

Talismans

Dagger Talisman
Shard of Alexander
Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman
Ritual Sword Talisman

Stats

Vigor: 50
Mind: 25
Endurance: 30
Strength: 16
Dexterity: 70
Intelligence: 9
Faith: 25
Arcane: 14

For stats, got heavily in dex, if you want to go for strength you can also go in heavy affinity and then choose your straight sword that you end up choosing. If you're really high level, you can go for some intelligence and then you can get some damage on the glintblades too. Overall though are really powerful and definitely overpowered build, Square Off is definitely an underused ash of war, the 40 poise damage is really incredible and it's relatively quick too.

Top 1 - Blood Witch Mage Bleed Build

As far as this build goes, it's not as overpowered as some of the other ones that we went through, but you're going to be using Briars of Sin and Briars of Punishment and they have decent bleed build up and they do have really relatively decent damage. Not incredibly overpowered, but really enjoyable to use and a little bit underused.
