Elden Ring Hand-to-Hand Combat - How to Build a Boxing Monk Build (Shadow of the Erdtree Build)

Unlocks Dryleaf Arts at Morth Ruins through a “May the Best Win” NPC duel; upgrades them to level 24. Builds either fire-affinity Palm Blast for buffed charged strikes, reaching 5,690 damage, or War Cry/Barbaric Roar combo movesets. Combo setup uses successive-hit healing talismans and heavy armor for regeneration, poise, and sustained close-range fighting.

Recent Elden Ring experimentation continues, turning punishing combat into increasingly optimized, highly customizable build testing.
