  • The Devonia Devastator build focuses on using Devonia’s Hammer and the Crucible Knight armor set.
  • Devonia’s Hammer is a colossal weapon that deals predominantly physical damage and scales well with strength.
  • The build can be optimized for a pure Faith build or a mix of strength and dexterity.

Devonia’s Hammer: A Colossal Weapon

Devonia’s Hammer is a colossal weapon in Elden Ring that deals predominantly physical damage. It has high attack rating and can be further boosted with Shard of Alexander and Godfree icon. The weapon skill, Devonia Vortex, allows you to twirl the hammer and slam it into the ground, dealing massive damage. The weapon’s weight can make it challenging to use, especially when paired with heavy armor like the Crucible Knight set.

Optimizing the Build

The build can be optimized for a pure Faith build or a mix of strength and dexterity. Fextralife recommends leaning into the Crucible Knight set for a Faith build, as it provides a significant boost to Crucible incantations. However, they note that using the Claw Mark seal for incantations may result in a loss of attack rating. Additionally, aspects of The Crucible incantations like Bloom may not be as effective, while Thorns can be a viable option. It’s important to choose armor with high Poise and protection to withstand the damage taken while using Devonia’s Hammer.

Talismans and Attributes

Fextralife suggests using the two-handed Talisman for boss fights to boost damage, along with Shard of Alexander to further enhance the Devonia Vortex weapon skill. The Great Jar’s Arsenal can be used to maintain a medium roll with high endurance. Higher endurance allows for more options in talisman selection, such as the stamina recovery tier or the claw Talisman for jump attacks. Attribute-wise, the build focuses on Vigor, strength, and faith, with a balance of mind and endurance.

The Devonia Devastator build offers a powerful and versatile playstyle in Elden Ring. With Devonia’s Hammer and the Crucible Knight armor set, players can deliver devastating damage and withstand hits from bosses. By optimizing attributes, talismans, and armor choice, this build can become even more formidable. Fextralife’s guide provides detailed instructions on how to create and utilize this build effectively, making it a valuable resource for players.
