You probably found yourself in situations where you were questioning your build because you saw that some enemies were just too strong for you. Builds play an important role in Elden Ring. Choosing the perfect one can be challenging because you have to pay attention to so many things, such as choosing the right weapons, armor sets, talismans, and last but not least, the right starting Class.
The first 20 points are essential for your Class, so upgrading the right stats is crucial. Additionally, having some special Elden Ring items can also be helpful on your journey across the Lands Between.
As we all know, some Builds aren't as powerful as they used to be, especially after some major updates. Therefore, we will focus only on the Best Bleed Build after Patch 1.06. So without further ado, here are our top 3 picks.
Bandit's Curved Sword Build
This build is probably already familiar to you and is definitely one of the strongest Bleed builds in Elden Ring, even after the 1.06 patch. With this build, you will eliminate even the most powerful bosses in the game. If you jump and hit your enemy with both swords, you will perform a 4-hit attack, which can do a ton of damage. If you haven't tried this build yet, do yourself a favor and start destroying everything and everyone that crosses your path.
Weapons - Bandit's Curved Sword (2x)
Upgrade them as high as possible, and apply the Seppuku Ash of War.

This mask is dropped in the blood-filled lake after eliminating one of the three Nameless White Mask NPC invaders in the Mohgwyn Dynasty Mausoleum.

Vulgar Militia Saw (Bleed Build)
This is another amazing Bleed build after the 1.06 Patch. It excels in both PvP and PvE, especially if you can connect the jumping attacks, which immediately cause blood loss. If you haven't tried it yet, you are missing a lot. Now let's start with the main weapon.
Weapon
Vulgar Militia Saw (Blood)
If you never saw this weapon before, that's because it is an uncommon drop from enemies that you don't face frequently in Elden Ring. However, you'll need this weapon because it can go up to 143 bleed buildup when you apply any blood affinity to it. You can find it in Greyoll's Dragonbarrow near the Bestial Sanctum. Search for the enemies that are wielding the Vulgar Militia Saw. Obviously, you should also apply the Seppuku Ash of War to it.
Armors
Redmane Knight Helmet
You can obtain it from Radahn Knight in Fort Gael.
Sanguine Noble Robe
You can obtain the entire Noble Robe Set in Mountaintops of the Giants (dropped by the NPC Sanguine Noble).
Briar Gauntlets
You can purchase these Gauntlets from Enia in Roundtable Hold after you kill Elemer of the Briar in the Shaded Castle.
Astrologer Trousers
You can purchase this leg armor from the Nomadic Merchant in Liurnia of the Lakes for 1000 Runes.
Talismans
Lord of Bloods's Exultation
This Talisman will boost your attack power by 20% for 20 seconds when Blood Loss occurs around your area. You can obtain it after you kill Esgar, Priest of Blood.
Claw Talisman
Claw Talisman will increase your jump attack damage by 15%. You can find it on a corpse on a watchtower in Stormveil Castle.
Rotten Winged Sword Insignia
With each successive attack, the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia will increase your attack power by 6, 8, and then 13%. You can get this Talisman if you choose to assist Millicent and defeat her sisters.
Spells
Flame, Grant Me Strength
This amazing Incantation increases your physical and fire-affinity attack power. You can find it in the region of Caelid, behind Fort Gael, between two Flame Chariots.
Black Flame
If you want a ranged spell, you should definitely go for the Black Flame. It allows you to throw a fireball of black flame. Additionally, you can charge the fireball to make it even more powerful. You can purchase this Incantation after you give the Godskin Prayerbook to Brother Corhyn. Other spells that you can use are Black Flame's Protection (to increase your physical damage negation), Black Blade, and Howl of Shabriri (to build up madness in nearby enemies).
Mohg's Spear Build
This build is so strong that it sometimes makes Elden Ring really boring. If you had problems with this game, and we all had, this build can be an act of sweet revenge. Something worth mentioning is that the main weapon got buffed in the latest patch, which makes this build even more powerful.
Weapon
Mohgwyn's Sacred Spear
You probably saw a couple of Builds with this amazing weapon, but we will spice it up a little bit. You can obtain this weapon after you trade the Remembrance of the Blood Lord with Enia at Roundtable Hold. The Remembrance of the Blood is dropped by one of the strongest Bosses in Elden Ring, Mohg.
Wondrous Physic
Flame-Shrouding Cracked Tear
This crystal tear is very important for this build. You can find it at the Minor Erdtree in Caelid after you kill the Erdtree Avatar.
Opaline Bubbletear
This crystal tear is also very handy for this build. You will also collect this crystal tear after you kill Erdtree Avatar.
Armor
I can also recommend the White Mask for this build as the Helm. For the rest of your armor, you can pick anything that suits your playing style. Here you can find some amazing rare Armor Sets in Elden Ring.
Talismans
Shard of Alexander
This Talisman improves the attack power of Skills by 15%. You can obtain it after you complete the Iron Fist Alexander Questline. Here you can find a complete guide for Iron Fist Alexander's Questline.

This great Talisman increases your attack power by 10%, but if your HP is at maximum level. You can obtain it after you kill the Demi-Human Queen Gilika in Rux Ruins.
Stats
For this build, you will have to focus mainly on Arcane and Mind.
Each build that we mentioned can be combined with your own crystal tears, summons, and Armor sets. It all depends on your playing style, character development, and your skill set. These were merely suggestions for what we believe to be the best mix for each individual build. One thing is for sure, and you won't be disappointed if you choose any of them.
