A simple yet effective build to defeat every enemy.
InElden Ring, by exploiting the strengths of theBlasphemousBlade you are able to craft an extremely powerfulFaith build.
The concept is to spam this weapon’s skillTaker’s Flames, a powerful ability that scales with Faith.
This build doesn’t require sharp reflexes or a deep understanding ofeach boss.
Taking damage constantly is the one big downside of this particular play style.
To compensate for that, you want to have good armour and always cast incantations to buff your defence.
Among the ones available in the game, you’ll want to always have theGolden Vowactive just in case.
You shouldn’t use only defensive incantations though.
Justrespec your characterand start the build again.
Below, you’ll find the figures you’ll want once you reach Elden Ring endgame content.
To reach these numbers, you should consider choosingConfessoras yourstarting class.
As expected, Faith is the stat you should focus most of your points on.
Secondly, you should also keep Vigor in mind, since it affects how much health you have.
On the other hand, the weapons skillTaker’s Flamesscales only with Faith but does also causes fire damage.
He is a mid to late-game boss so tackling this battle as a new player is not ideal.
Until you’re ready to face this battle, you’ll need to go for more basic weapons.
After youre strong enough to exploreCaelid, a good upgrade is theHalo Scythe.
This weapon drops from the Lesser Cleanrot Knights.
Target the Knights carrying a scythe and you should be able to get the Halo Scythe quite quickly.
Since you will be using incantations when using this build, you want the best Seal to cast them.
Among the options available in the game, theErdtree Sealis the one you want.
it’s possible for you to find it in an abandoned cell in the town outside the Volcano Manor.
You might want to pick your armour based on a theme or just want the highest defence possible.
Regardless of what you choose, its important that you keep your Equipment Load atmediumto keep some mobility.
Saying that, our main suggestion for this build is theHaligtree Knight setsince it increases your Faith.
It also has a solid physical defence.
Another option with a higher Poise stat is theMalformed Dragon set.
Even though it doesnt give you more Faith, it has a better defence against physical damage.
Use this set until you could get one of the late-game sets.
The first is theShard of Alexander, which increases the damage of your skills.
You earn this talisman by completing theIron First Alexander’s quest.
Alongside this one, theFire Scorpion Charm, which you’ll find inFort LaieddinMt.
Gelmir, is a solid option to increase your Fire damage.
