Elden Ring Best Power Stancing Builds & Weapons PVE Patch 1.09 - Top 5 Best PVE Weapons to Dual Wielding 2023

#5. Elden Ring Frost Twinblade Build Patch 1.09

We are going to have a twinblade frost build, a popular and formidable dual wielding build for Elden Ring PVE patch 1.09, it's for players who enjoy melee combat. It focuses on inflicting frost damage to opponents via the twinblade weapon while also providing mobility and crowd control. This build is going to involve using two Gargoyle’s twinblades but you can only get one per play through, so an alternative would be to use the twinned knight blades which is just going to be very similar another nice strength based Twin Blade, but it's just not going to have as much damage nor as good as a scaling with a cold infusion. As for ash of war options, we're going to have the ice spear in our main hand and chilling mist in the offhand. Our chilling mist is going to add this more frost damage if you go up against a boss that's more resistant. And then we're going to have Iceberg which is a decent projectile option, does decent damage, go relatively far and nice frost build up. But the main part of this build is just going to be able to spam jumping attacks because the twinblade power stance jumping attacks are amazing, have really good range hit, very fast. So we're going to utilize that by going with the Raptor’s Black Feathers chess piece and the claw talisman, because they both do stack and both to improve the jumping attack damage.

Power stance curve swords have some of the best movesets in the entire game especially with those running and jumping attacks, because they hit very quickly plenty of times. We are going to have two bandits curve swords which does require a bit of farming, but it definitely is worth it. The bandits does actually have the most range and the most base damage out of all the other curved swords, it is one of the best weapons to power stance in Elden Ring 2023. So it's still going to be a very top tier option. But we are going to have these flame mod infused with flaming strike put onto them now flaming strike is a very solid weapon skill because it does actually buff your weapon with 90 fire damage for 40 seconds and the attack itself is still very high damaging also.

But in this build particular, we're going to have the Regalia of Eochaid which is a very solid arcane weapon that doesn't really get any status effects, but it has a very high damaging ash of war.

Great axes have been buffed plenty of times with their move sets to where they're a lot faster now especially with those running and heavy attacks. But power stance still have a very solid moveset because they hit at the exact same time. And as for our weapons of choosing, we're going to have the Rusted Anchor and the Pickaxe which both of these weapons do piercing damage.
