On top of difficult boss battles, status effects in Elden Ring can be pretty brutal. Scarlet Rot and Poison can both be quickly fatal by draining HP. However, Madness is quite insidious as well, considering it deals both HP and FP damage over time. We’ll show you the best ways to defend yourself from this maddening malady. Show
How to Prevent Madness in Elden Ring The best way to prevent Madness is to build up your Mind stat. Increasing Mind adds to the Focus stat, which governs resistance to Madness as well as Sleep. You can also increase your Madness resistance by equipping a Talisman known as the Clarifying Horn Charm. This charm boosts your Focus stat, and can be found in the Deep Siofra Well in Dragonbarrow. As for ways to reduce Madness buildup, there are a couple of ways to slow down the spread. If you find and defeat Preceptor Miriam in the Carian Study Hall, she will drop the Lucidity Sorcery spell, and casting this will reduce Madness. You can also craft Clarifying Boluses. Once finding the Frenzied’s Cookbook on a body in the Frenzied Flame Village, you can craft these with the following:
As for getting afflicted, Madness strikes many ways. Certain enemies, such the Boss Invader Festering Fingerprint Vyke near the Church of Inhibition, have attacks that will inflict Madness. On the flipside, some weapons, Seals, and Incantations can also infect the player with Madness as part of their use. Also, nearly every spell and skill that references “frenzy” in some way will always inflict Madness either upon the player, the targeted enemy, or both. While Madness is, well, a maddening status effect, it’s implementation in the game is not as common as other status effects. That being said, it’s always best to come prepared in Elden Ring.

A large value for Mind allows you to cast weapons for a longer time and survive some hits as well. Moreover, high Endurance helps you to have a good enough amount of armor and stamina for the battle. For Tank Madness build, you must focus on having more points in vigor and endurance that will provide you some extra stamina and health bonuses. Strength and Dexterity can be used as secondary stats to keep a backup of boost in attacking powers through access to more weapons and enhanced attacking capabilities. Best Weapon for Madness BuildsFor both builds, Vyke’s War Spear is the only melee weapon that is to be used. Using Vyke’s War Spear, players can leap up into the air and thrust the spear down to the ground. This causes an explosion of Frenzy Flame to occur, thus causing a huge amount of damage. This weapon is very strong due to its move set and weapon art. While using Vyke’s War Spear, players need to be mindful that the spear not only casts madness on the enemy but also the players. For this reason, players must stay careful while using the spear. For your incantations, you’ll be using Frenzy Flame Seal which boosts Frenzy Flame incantations. Another good thing about this seal is that it scales well with Strength, Dexterity, Endurance, and Faith. These stats buff the Frenzied Flame Incantations by 20% that will help you deal greater damage while fighting against enemies. Best Armor for Madness BuildsWe will use Bull-Goat armor for the Tank Madness build. Bull Goat Helm can be used to Increase your defensive capabilities by increasing damage resistance. It also gives you high poise. For Frenzy Spam build you can pretty much use any heavy armor that you prefer. Best Spells for Madness BuildsSpells are our focus only for the Frenzy Spam build. We will be using five spells for this build to constantly bombard your enemies with status effects. The first one to use is Frenzied Burst which can be charged for increased damage to penetrate enemy defenses. Unendurable Frenzy Spell comes in two different parts. The first one is like The Frenzied Flame except for the fact that you cannot charge it and can cast it until your stamina ends. The second part is that you are locked for three seconds while you randomly shoot flames, making you open to attacks. Howl of Shabiri Spell supports you in two ways. The first one is that it lowers all types of protection while the second one is to gain the aggro of the closest enemy. The last spell is Inescapable Frenzy which scales off what you have in your right hand. Note that the total damage done by this spell relies on the critical damage of the weapon in the right hand of the wielder. Best Shield for Madness BuildsYou can use a shield with Tank Madness Build. For this purpose, Fingerprint Stone Shield is a good option. Fingerprint Stone Shield is a Greatshield which are pegged as the safests shields to have in Elden Ring. It also scales with Strength which is a primary stat in the build and hence makes the build even stronger. You can enhance the effect of Madness by combining it with Vyke’s War spear and then attack the enemy. This will freeze them for a while after which you can do a shield charge.
