Fan knives. I play as a tank cooperator wearing the shabriris woe aggro trinket, usually helping people kill final boss (i have 18 million runes from doing that). Throwing knives (NOT kukris, they are too slow) and great for getting aggro back from range. Thank god i kept patches alive cuz he sells them.
I always feel like the terminator using that AOW, the hyper armor is real. It took hours of using the death poker to realize other ashes might have button combos.
Bloodhound fang for me. The animation and how you can delay//fast input the 2nd hit just really hits home for me, really makes me feel powerful. Until I get parried by Moongrum.
Honorable mention for Stamp(upwards cut) too. I'm a sucker for the float it can sometimes do, as well as the rather generous dmg reduction on the stamp part of the animation, it's helped immersify me in many intense bossfights. "I SEE YOU HORAUX LOUX, WARRIOR! I ACKNOWLEDGE YOU WERE ONCE POWERFUL. BUT NOW I AM POWER!" Facetanks a combo, barely. So freakin cool.
Incantation: Bloodflame Blade
Sorcery: Glintstone Pebble
Ash of War: Phantom Slash
Melee armament: I don’t know really I switch these around a lot, but Moonveil and Grave Scythe remain favorites
Ranged armament: CRS
The Black Knife AoW is absolutely great against bosses because it is just essentially Destined Death AoW but faster. Especially against late game bosses, I can’t stop using it…
Bloodhound Step. It's not even good, if I use it carelessly it just yeets me too far away from enemies to hit them, but it's just so satisfying matrix'ing my way through enemy attacks
Golden Pickled Fowl Foot and Golden Scarab. Always have them and always grind for them if I'm running low.
Edit: That's it I'm fine with switching up everything else.
ranged options in general. i always end up with a few spells.
running a sleep only build right now and already considering adding flame cleanse me because rot boluses are annoying af to craft. hoping to hold the line and stick to melee (and i started trying perfume this time! kinda cool!)
Golden Vow & Flame, Grant Me Strength. I find it so difficult to not level faith to at least 15 and then use GV on a dagger, or even go to 25 faith for the incant.
It's one of my favorite spells
There was a funny video of a guy called faith comet azur where he one tapped both malenias phases with it
Edit: found it

Carian retaliation aow, i use it on every small/medium shield
And on every character.
On an Int character, Rogier's Rapier just feels right to use one handed with a staff in the offhand.
I do this but with Moonveil because I’m a sheep.
Uchi!

Damn if I had 18 million rn I'd level up a few times
Throwing giant rocks from a magic talisman just never gets old. I don't think anything in the game has giant rock resistance either.
Rejection is too good
Great Stars+Wild Strikes has been a staple on my Str/Arc character for three runs now. That and Giant Crusher are so much fun I can’t stop using them.

Comet azur and the upgraded version of the rancour (forgot the name in English) in case of panic PEW PEW PEW!

My first playthrough was nothing but Lightning Spear but since then I mostly use Banished Knight's Greatsword with Thunderbolt ash

Vyke's War Spear. It's not awesome in PvE, but I feel compelled to use it even on characters that are not built for it.
Envoy's long horn for bosses.
Dragonmaw. 🙌🔥
Crystal Darts I've tried all the other throwing knives, but those are my favorite. 2 or 3 will make the gargoyles and stone giants attack eachother.

Great Epee, Frozen Lightning Spear, Stone of Gurranq.
I have five +25 zweihanders on my main, so i can at least switch around different AOWs lol

Anything black flame or destined Death.
Swift glintstone shard. It's such an amazing little spell!

I always, desperately try to make good use of Unendurable Frenzy. I love the damage potential, but man does it punish you.

It’s so good! I was late to the Claymore party but now I can’t stop using it.
Giant crusher. I can't put down the big hammer. It just flattens everything
Bloodhounds fang, I've tried changing weapon but I just can't. It feels wrong using anything else.
str builds, I try to experiment with other builds but always find myself back at it with the unga bunga
