ELDEN RING – Katana Build Tips

In this guide, you’ll find a number of effective tips for creating your own katana build. Try to follow these tips without looking at existing and suggested builds. It’s fun and interesting!

Useful Tips to Katana Build

  • Pick the samurai class, they come with a katana.
  • Most likely you’ll be focusing dex, though some may opt for focusing arcane if a bleed build is your style.
  • Dual wielding katanas is okay, but double curved swords are usually favored.
  • The default unsheathe skill is fantastic. Wep skill > heavy attack gives a fast overhead strike that crushes most mobs and stuns bosses in 3-4 hits. But don’t neglect the other ashes of war and customize to your needs.
  • Follow yura’s subquest to get the nagakiba. That’s the longest katana by a large margin, and it’s customizable.
  • If you’re taking int as a spellcasting stat (main or sub) you can go for the moonveil that adds magic sword waves to the normal skill swings.
  • Rivers of blood only shows up quite late into the game but can tear up enemies with fast bleed buildup.

Important note: Don’t neglect vigor. Aim to have 40 by leyndell, 50-60 by the endgame.
