Tried out 'all status effect' Executor build for Nightreign's katana in Elden Ring, discovered it works remarkably well as a divine, overpowered weapon.
Gaming Uncensored:
Ever felt that you're stuck with a sucky loot roll while playing Elden Ring Nightreign? Me too. That was, until I discovered the Executor build!
This wicked setup is tailored for the Executor class, a death-dealing katana-wielding warrior. No luck required here, just some smart Relic choices.
Here's the lowdown on this aggro treasure:
- Swipe that Night of Miasma relic from Fissure in the Fog (Caligo, Miasma of Night)
- Grab the Night of the Wise relic from Sentient Pest (Gnoster, Wisdom of Night)
Boom, your Executor's Blade is now a status-effect spreader, coating foes with poison and frostbite like nobody's business. The added attack power boosts against frostbite-inflicted enemies? That's just gravy.
Don't worry about the third relic slot - anything good for the Executor works here. I've been scoring big with the "Partial restoration upon Post-Damage Attacks" and "Stamina recovers with each successful attacks" modifiers, but whatever floats your boat.
The beauty of this build? No more struggling to find the perfect weapon. Now you're rolling with an A-tier weapon from the beginning, instead of hoping to cop that S-tier legendary armament later on. It's like getting a B+ student a college scholarship - fancy that!
And guess what? You can even upgrade your starting weapon with smithing stones - they're not hard to come by. Just traipse into a mine at least once in a session for a smithing stone 2, pass by a merchant for a smithing stone 1, and you're good to go.
So, my mates, forget about wasting time scrolling for that ideal weapon. Dive headfirst with this decked-out Executor build and watch enemies crumble beneath your mighty katana.
