Elden Ring Guide on Crafting a Nightreign Wylder Build, Including Strategies and Ideal Weapons

Step into the realm of Elden Ring Nightreign as a versatile fighter with Wylder, the game's default character. Don't let his friendly demeanor fool you—by following this guide, you'll uncover the secrets to creating a formidable Wylder build.

Wylder shines with his balanced health, stamina, and penchant for heavy-hitting greatswords. The key to his success lies in improving his survivability and strengthening his preferred weapon. Utilizing abilities-based buffs can also be beneficial for his skillset and relics.

Gear Up With the Best Relics, Weapons, and Talismans

Wylder's Best Relics

  1. Follow-up attacks possible when using character skill (greatsword only)
  2. Create a lingering area of fire damage after using ultimate art
  3. One additional Claw Shot use
  4. Ultimate Art Gauge
  5. Defeating enemies fills more of the Art gauge
  6. [Nightreign's Element] Damage negation up/resistance
  7. HP restoration when consuming cured meats, medicinal boluses, etc.

Wylder's Best Weapons and Passives

  1. Strength-based greatswords (e.g., Death's Poker, Sword of Milos)
  2. Improved charged attacks, jump attacks, or chain attack finishers
  3. Improved weapon art for ultimate attack power
  4. Improved attack power when two-handing

Wylder's Best Talismans

  1. Erdtree's Favor (raises maximum HP and stamina)
  2. Viridian Amber Medallion (improved stamina)
  3. Twinblade Talisman (improved chain attack finishers)
  4. Bull-Goat's Talisman (improved poise)
  5. Ritual Sword Talisman (improves attack power at full HP)

Stat and Scaling Focus

Maximize Wylder's potential by focusing on the following:

  1. Vigor and Endurance (for health and stamina)
  2. Strength (for damage output)
  3. Mind (for abilities and skills, optional)

Pro Tips

  1. Utilize Claw Shot to engage enemies and close the gap to bosses. Pair it with passive effects on weapons to turn this mobility skill into a weapon itself.
  2. Charge your ultimate, Onslaught Stake, to increase its damage potential.
  3. Coordinate your ultimate with allies, particularly those with marking (Ironeye) or Restage (Duchess) abilities to maximize its impact.
  4. Learn cutting-edge dodging techniques to avoid damage, especially against bosses. Shields can also be used for counterattacks, but this limits your ability to two-hand your greatsword.
  5. To strengthen Wylder's preferred weapon, consider utilizing strength-based greatswords such as Death's Poker or Sword of Milos.
  6. For Wylder's best relics, equip Nightreign's Element for damage negation and resistance, and consider nightreign's relic that offers HP restoration.
  7. In terms of talismans, Erdtree's Favor for increased HP and stamina, Viridian Amber Medallion for improved stamina, and Ritual Sword Talisman for enhancing attack power at full HP are good choices.
  8. To boost Wylder's survivability, focus on Vigor and Endurance for health and stamina in the stat and scaling focus, while also optimizing Strength for damage output.
