#4. Fire's Deadly Sin Glitched Warrior Build

The Fire's Deadly Sin Glitched Warrior Build is a powerful and potentially game-breaking build in the Elden Ring DLC. This build takes advantage of a glitch that allows players to transfer the bleed effect from the Bloodflame Blade incantation to the Fire's Deadly Sin effect, making it even more deadly.

To create the Fire's Deadly Sin Glitched Warrior Build, you will need to follow these steps:
Obtain the Fire's Deadly Sin incantation: This incantation can be obtained by completing a painting puzzle in Leyndell. The "Flightless Bird" painting is located near the Fortified Mansion, First Floor Site of Grace. Solving the puzzle will lead you to the location of the artist behind the painting.
Acquire the Bloodflame Blade incantation: The Bloodflame Blade incantation can be obtained by defeating a specific boss or by completing a questline. Once you have the Bloodflame Blade incantation, equip it in your incantation slot.
Activate the glitch: With both the Fire's Deadly Sin and Bloodflame Blade incantations equipped, perform a specific action or combination of actions that triggers the glitch. The exact method may vary, so it's recommended to consult online forums or guides for specific instructions on how to activate the glitch.
Enjoy the power of the glitch: Once the glitch is activated, the bleed effect from the Bloodflame Blade incantation will be transferred to the Fire's Deadly Sin effect. This means that every hit with the Fire's Deadly Sin will also inflict bleed damage on your enemies, making it an incredibly deadly combination.
