My theory is that he took it really personally when everyone shat on his Elden Ring build, so now he pays people to play games for him and take the credit.
He can't accept being bad at something, he has to be THE BEST IN THE WORLD.
2 shields, 2 weapons+staff, fat rolling, soreseal at level 100+, 3 summons, no Flask on the bar, bizarre stat spread, more if you wanna get really finicky about it.
"flasks in hot slots" is a legit way to play, it's unusual but this feels like a tip he picked up from some reddit thread or something; the rest of the build is dead stupid
So here's the thing: That's smart, it's convenient, and it's also something that I've never seen a Souls veteran do, because the muscle memory is so strong already.
Anecdotal, of course, but it makes me doubt his credentials more.
I think the stat spread is not as bad as people make it out to be, it's suboptimal but otherwise mostly standard int/dex. The gear is egregiously bad in ways that confound me to this day.
The funniest thing is absolutely boosting his intelligence despite not having a build that would benefit from it. His desperate desire to be "smart" is hilarious
It’s so blatant. One thing you can’t fake with poe players is understanding the game. Every piece of gear, every node on the skill tree, your choice of ascendency, all of it matters and he talked like he didn’t have mirror-tier gear already. As if he would know what that means.
ResistLibs cannot actually attack Elon in any way that makes the public hate him more, as his defenders already have go-to retorts for his racism boosting, emerald mine, etc.
But hobbyists from apolitical subcultures can attack Elon from a perch above in ways his fans are defenseless against.
Imagine being the richest person on earth, having just bought the presidency of the United States, and you wake up and say to yourself "I need everyone to think I'm really good at video games no matter what without having to practice, that's what I'm going to be using my resources for"
Yeah he essentially just logs into an account that someone else leveled in gear that lseveral someone else’s farmed and gave him then pretends he knows what he’s doing because he desperately wants attention

But it's certainly not the build of someone with the experience and gaming prowess he claims he has.
idk how im just realizing that
*Strongest item in the game*
Elon: oh, it's only level 54 it could be better
3 weapons and 2 shields
heavy load (makes dodging a lot harder yet he uses turtle talisman so that he can get back the stamina he doesnt use faster)
3 different spirit summons when you can only use one at a time
