Elden Ring Str/Faith Build Stats

This Elden Ring str/faith build is heavily focusing on strength, about 60 points into that with the five remaining coming from that sore seal, 31 points invested into faith, and we needed about 13 points into intelligence, but you don't have to do that if you go with the blood flame blade, instead just put one more point into arcane to get 10, and be able to just use it and have 34 into faith. For the mind attribute, 20 is perfectly enough to fully buff yourself, then get a chunk of one of those potions and be able to spam your abilities in most of the combat encounters. Finally, that endurance is about 25 points so that we can block a little bit more from enemies or dodge a little bit more.

Elden Ring Str/Faith Build Weapons and Ash of War

What are the best weapons for str faith build in Elden Ring?

- Banished Knight Greatsword: An excellent option and just slightly worse with a heavy affinity compared to the Iron Greatsword, but it looks much better and comes with other advantages. When fully buffed, an alternative to the weapon would be Iron Greatsword or the Inseparable Sword, but both of them are not the best options. Banished Knight shares the same R1 attack with the Inseparable Sword, which is one of the best for any Greatsword in the game, it's very different than anything else and slash with the Sword Dance Ash of War, it deals a great job at interrupting enemies and eventually even stunning them, we are making use of strength a lot more than any other stat with this build, Sword Dance Ash of War is going to give you a lot of damage and interrupts against enemies, it’s an excellent choice has a really good range, very little windup and you pretty much spam it for a lot of damage up to 5K against most of the damage.

- Great Stars: it is also with the heavy affinity so that we can buff it later with different enchants and putting a Prayerful Strike Ash of War, the ultimate paladin move in Elden Ring, this is a high damage high stun actually perfectly coppers with a great hammer, and more importantly, it gives you a massive heal per hit even more, so when you consider the fact that Great Stars already comes with a passive heal on hit and a blast buildup of 55. Overall, they are the best couple you can have with this kind of setup.

Elden Ring Str/Faith Build Seal

- Clawmark Seal: it gives 268 incantation scaling, and does scale both from strength and faith, this build has a lot more points into strength since that offers more damage and more freedom in choosing which passives and actives to apply to swords.

Elden Ring Str/Faith Build Talisman

- Shard of Alexander: it greatly boosts the attack power of our skills, so this includes both the skills on the Greatsword as well as the Great Stars.

- Sacred Scorpion Charm: you can switch this to something different, even something that buffs fire damage in case you want to go for a blood flame blade.

- Erdtree’s Favor +2: raises all of the stat that we need for this tanky build, so that's going to be the maximum HP, stamina and more important equip load.

- Rotten Winged Sword Insignia: you can also run with it since you do a lot of successive attacks that are going to boost up your attack rating even more.

- Ancestral Spirit’s Horn: you do stun enemies a lot and perform critical hits, you might be able to restore some FP and have a lot more sustain.

- Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman: if you like face tank enemies, this will boost up your physical damage negation by about 20%.

Elden Ring Strength/Faith Build Gameplay Tips

We are gonna make use of the Greatsword with the blade dance and also imbue that with either a sacred blade or a blood flame blade if you want some bleeds on top, this is going to deal a ton of damage, the skill is amazing, it also has a long reach and you get to interrupt most of the enemies. You can also use the R1 series of attacks that barely consume any of your stamina, you do get to interrupt and eventually stun full on enemies for anything else that drops your HP levels, especially if you use the Dragoncrest talisman for more defenses, you can just face tank everything with the Great Stars and the Prayerful Strike. This combo makes it the ultimate paladin move to the point that you maybe don't even need to dodge that much against many of the bosses in the game. Against some of them, you can fully heal yourself up without ever doing any dodging, and then just like massacre them in the same fight, that's definitely the ultimate paladin move, you can pull off right there. We're also making use of Flame, Grant Me Strength, and the Golden Vow, since this increases our attack rating even more, and some of our defenses get slightly reduced, which is why we do need a ton of defenses with this build. You can also couple this with a shield for this build so that you can destroy enemies easily in no more than one swing and if there are any enemies that do resist that you can always switch to two handing it and then killing them off.
