10 Character Builds That BROKE RPGs

Love or hate Elden Ring's infamous difficulty, the game isn't without some game-breaking exploits. Namely, just how overpowered magic is across an entire playthrough.

Magic in Elden Ring has a remarkably diverse way of scaling, with Mind, Intelligence, and Dexterity all impacting casting rate and how powerful each spell is. Where the game-breaking part of magic really comes through, is when these perks and spells are used against large swarms of enemies and bosses.

One of the cheesiest combinations involving magic is with the Meteorite Staff and the Rock Sling and Meteorite spells. Not only does the Meteorite Staff offer some incredibly strong stats on its own, but it also enhances the slinging spells further than their own impressive damage numbers.

Combining these with a high level of Intelligence and Skeletal Militiaman Ashes summons, and what's left is the perfect recipe for a character build that is free to steer clear of any danger and just throw hard-hitting rocks at their enemies from afar.

Elden Ring is a game many fans have bemoaned for its gruelling difficulty, however for showcasing just how jammy and cheap magic builds can be, this combination of spells and staffs really does the job.
