Everything you better know about Elden Ring’s Strength builds.
There are few things magic cant handle, but having additional options never hurts.
What Is A Faith/Strength Build?
Elden Ring’s Strength Faith build can be altered to access a variety of weapons.
Colossal swords, some incredible spears, and even giant clubs are all fair game.
If you dont have the Vigor, you risk being one-shot by several common threats.
The core of the build is theStrength value of 60.
This Elden Ring Strength/Faith build also includes several buffs, ranged spells, and dragon incantations.
you could stick to the Tree Sentinel theme ormix and match some of your favorite weaponsto suit your needs.
This is impressive on any weapon and excels on a halberd.
Backing up the golden stick of death is theErdtree Greatshield.
If you cant get close to a caster, your shield will delete them for you.
Golden Vowis also recommended, which is theGolden Halberds Ash of War.
Thisincreases your Attack Rating and Defensive Values, making it harder to kill you.
This buff also applies to any nearby allies, including summoned players and spirit ashes.
Rotten Breathis a staple in just about any Elden Ring Faith build simply because Scarlet Rot is so powerful.
It requires more Arcane than this build gets, but you will resolve that with Talismans.
Bestial Vitalityis an amazingly quick and effective heal over time.
You should be casting this before and during most encounters.
This will free up your flask usage and let you play more aggressively.
Lightning Spearis your long-range sniping spell.
Frenzied Burstis also a good spell for this purpose, but Lightning Spear has wider applicability.
Gravel Sacred Seal is recommendedas it will increase your Lightning Spear spell damage.
It will also boost otherDragon Cult incantations, but not Dragon Communionincantations (like Rotten Breath).

Talisman of Lord’s Bestowal
Increases poiseafter using a flask of tears.
Two-Handed Sword Talisman
Enhances attacks withtwo-handed weapons.
Marikas Soresealis fantastic for this.
It’s simply a must-have for any Faith Build in Elden Ring.
This, plus Golden Vow, forms a dangerous combination thatmakes Elden Ring seem so much easier.
Finally, this build uses a lot of Talismans that hinder Damage Negation.
To offset this, bring theDragoncrest Greatshield Talisman.
While it wont fully negate the talisman debuffs, it will make them noticeably less devastating.
Swap for the Pearldrake Talismaninstead when facing non-physical enemies.
Armor
For armor, you want to maximize your Damage Reduction and Poise whilemaintaining a Medium Roll.
Alternatively, you could go full tank and push to a Heavy Roll.
However, if you are going to do that, then you will need to mix your Flask differently.
If you want a thematic armor set, grab theTree Sentinel ArmorinAuriza Hero’s Grave.
You’ll need to destroy the chariots inside to get the set.
This tear will give you aLight Roll for three minutes, regardless of your Equip Load.
