In this Elden Ring Build Guide, we’ll show you the Sword of St. Trina build. This is an NG+ build that takes place after level 150. If you've been looking for a Straight Sword build that that specializes in inflicting the Sleep status effect then you might want to check this build-out.

How to make this Slumbering Swordstress build work

Let's talk about the Sword of St.Trina, this obviously causes sleep build up 66 per swing, one of the reasons we want to do a wield here is because when we use that L2 button press we actually hitting twice about the same exact time, that's going to give you double the build up with one swing, allowing you to set that sleep status effect a lot faster, this weapon has vrey poor damage compared to other straight swords, and the magic damage is just almost non-existent on it, the in scaling is terrible, the strength and dexterity scaling are fairly similar, even though Dex is C, Dex is a little head of strength obviously, but this is very much a quality weapon once you meet the requirements with 14 intelligence, 12 dexterity intense strength, you're essentially just going to pump strength and dexterity and forget about intelligence until maybe new game plus or something like that when you have way more stats, the weapon skill for this ability Miss of Slumber sort of does like a sweep of dust in front of you that builds the Sleep status effect very quickly, and it's very good against enemies that have like Shields or things like this where you can't directly hit them with your weapon or you sort of got to bait them into attacking before hitting them, it's a great way to do that, and it also adds more sleep build up to your attack, so ideally you'd lead with this in a difficult fight to not only hopefully set that sleep status effect quickly, but if not buff your weapon and make it so that your next couple attacks will hit trigger the Sleep status effect on enemies or the enemy that you're facing allowing you to get in some free damage.

Final Tips

• If you're using the Flask of Wondrous Physick, you want the Thorny Cracked Tear to further boost your damage as you attack rapidly anytime, you're dual wielding this is a good choice particularly if you're physical damage build like we are, and then the Greenburst Crystal Tear will increase your stamina recovery, even though you have a lot of stamina with this build, you chew through it swinging rapidly with your L1 attacks, so getting it back more quickly will allow you to get longer combos off, and not have to wait for your stamina to return.

• When it comes to the great Elden Ring rune to use for this build, Godrick's Great Rune is a great choice here, because you need Vigor, you need mind, you need endurance, you need strength, you need dexterity, and you need a little bit of intelligence depending on what class you are you probably won't need much, but that will allow you to meet the requirements for the sword if you don't want to invest points in nice intelligence .
