In this Elden Ring Build Guide, we’ll show you the Iron Cleaver build. This is an NG+ Intelligence build that takes place after level 150. If you’ve been looking for an Axe build that cleaves through anything and everything in the game, then you might want to check this build-out.

How to Make this Carian Cleaver Build Work

-Iron Cleaver: It also has phenomenal strength scaling by the way if you set out to heavy, it has S scaling so you could play this as a strength build if you wanted to make some sort of other version of it, this weapon is found very early on in the game you can Farm it from Castle Mome or any Misbegotten enemy.

-Carian Regal Scepter: This is a hybrid build, because we have the iron Cleaver set to the magic infusion so we have very high intelligence and that allows us to cast spells or we can use our charge star2 strategy with no Royal Knights resolve.

-Jellyfish Shield: This is a nice addition to this build because it allows you to block counters you have very high melee damage, it's got high melee damage, it's got block counters, it's got magic if you're looking for an all-around build, it's really good but also what this allows us to do is if you have your scepter and axe out and then you buff with royal Knight's resolve and switch your scepter for the shield.
