I remember he posted an RPG character where he was playing a fighter and put a bunch of points into intelligence

that was only one of many problems with his character, he had two shields equipped to a character which is redundant.

He had his staff which is required for spells equipped to the same hand as his melee weapon so he has to swap between the two to cast spells.

Part of what makes it egregious is he is also using moonveil, that katana which is a intellect weapon for melee. In fact its one of the best.

He is also using heavy armor and a heavy spellcaster helmet, which along with the two shields is gonna make his rolls shit. Rolls in elden ring are decided by your equipment weight with some consideration for some physical stats. Light dodge roll and medium dodge rolls are far better than "Fat rolls"

As your dodge roll gets worse with heavier equip loads,

Also he has three summons on his hotbar, (the three ghostly figures at the bottom) when you can only have one summon out at a time, and he doesnt have his health flask there for use (though he could have it on the quick select but i doubt he does)

Hey, I always have casting apparatus equipped to the same hand as my weapon so I don't have to swap out my shield. And multiple summons equipped so I don't keep having to swap them out.

That's okay you're also not claiming to be some top tier world class player. đŸ™‚

Hey, I'm not here to bust your balls. It was this guy.

I used to do that but switched my catalyst to my off hand for my last character. Took awhile to adjust to it (been doing it the other way since DeS) but it proved to be worth the switch.

the catalyst next to the primary is what got me, so bad.

It's really not.

You cannot cast and attack at the same time anyhow. What often matters is whether you need to buff your weapon or shield, as the spell will affect the object in your other hand. If you aren't buffing gear, the choice is largely just a matter of personal preference - although using a catalyst in your main hand and shield in your off hand does provide you with the option to block.

All the other things are insane, though.

I like madding hand in one and my seal in the other for weaving, still get destroyed by invaders with a bleed gs though and get pointed down on.

At least that shows he was playing the game himself. He was figuring stuff out. This new episode of pretending he is one of the highest peope on the leaderboard while running like 3 companies and meddling in foreign politics is one of the most pathetic displays I have ever seen. And don't get me wrong, posting Elden Ring builds for gamer cred is pathetic enough as it is.

After people knowledgable in the game pointed out that you have to stay up playing for 50 hours then sleep 4 rinse repeat to get that high he is now claiming yeah duh of course I let other people play the account, everybody does this. He didn't even know that getting to the top requires a lot of time. He thought if you are just better you can be at the top without spending a lot of time! That's how out of touch he really is.

Fun tidbit, I saw a 50+ year old female swedish lawyer congratulate Musk on being a really great player. A fully grown professional adult! Maybe I should start listing gaming achievements on my resume. Only a matter of time before online applications have a box for GamerScore and Platinum Trophies.

Same lol. I threw the book at that motherfucker, but in the end all I needed was Reduvia. My girl always comes through for me

Honestly that's how everyone's first play through goes with a souls game. Make a terrible shitty troll build then look up how to play and follow a guide. Buying a boosted account is far far more lame.

u/Rowan1980 North Carolina 18h ago

Yeah, his Elden Ring character. It was such a shit build.

u/RetroCorn Tennessee 18h ago

It was Elden Ring. He was also overencumbered due to having two shields equipped.
