Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this “frenzy flame seal” thing in Elden Ring, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride. I wanted to share my experience, from figuring out where to find it to actually using it in battle.
Getting My Hands on the Seal
First things first, I had to actually find the darn thing. I’d heard whispers about it being tied to this whole Frenzied Flame questline, which, honestly, sounded a bit intimidating. But I was determined! So, I started poking around, doing quests, and following any lead I could find related to this Hyetta character and the Three Fingers.
The whole process was a journey. I went to so many places!
- Checked out all related places.
- Talked to every NPC I could find who even vaguely mentioned “frenzy” or “flame.”
- Kept going at the related quest,even when it got tough.
Eventually, after a lot of running around, I found myself deep under the capital, in this creepy, kinda disturbing area. I won’t spoil the exact details, because honestly, figuring it out yourself is half the fun. But let’s just say it involved a lot of jumping and some pretty intense platforming.
Finally completed the quest, and bam! The Frenzy Flame Seal was mine. It felt like a real accomplishment.
Experimenting with Frenzied Flames
Now, having the seal is one thing, but actually using it is a whole other story. I knew it scaled with a bunch of stats – Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Faith – which meant I had some room to play around with my build. I’m not the biggest fan of super optimized builds, I like to experiment, so I just started throwing points into things and seeing what happened.
I equipped some Frenzied Flame incantations, like “Frenzied Burst” and “Howl of Shabriri,” and took them for a spin. And, wow. These things are powerful. They build up madness in enemies, which is this crazy status effect that does a huge chunk of damage and can even stagger them. But here’s the kicker – they also build up madness in you. So, it’s this constant balancing act of dishing out insane damage while trying not to go completely bonkers yourself.
My First Few Battles (and Mistakes)
My first few attempts were… messy. I’d go into a fight, spamming Frenzied Flame spells left and right, and yeah, I’d melt enemies, but I’d also end up with my own madness bar filled to the brim. I quickly learned that you can’t just go all-out with these incantations. You need to be strategic, use them at the right moments, and have some way to manage your own madness buildup.
Tips and Tricks I Learned
Here’s the lowdown on how to use Frenzy Flame Seal in Elden Ring:
- Be Mindful: Always remember Frenzied Flame spells are powerful,but also build madness on you!
- Don’t Just Spam: Don’t spam spells; be smart about using them.
- Have a Backup Plan: Have other spells or weapons, just in case.
- Practice: Try it out in easier areas to get good.
It’s been a learning process, for sure. I’m still figuring out the best way to use the Frenzy Flame Seal, but that’s part of the fun, right? It’s this high-risk, high-reward playstyle that’s incredibly satisfying when you pull it off. I’m still not entirely sure if embracing the Frenzied Flame is a good idea in the long run, story-wise, but hey, it’s definitely been a memorable experience!
