The Strength/Faith build will transform your Tarnished from a lowly warrior into a full-blown juggernaut—whether you get your holy power from the Erdtree or the Beasts. Let’s discuss the best choices to make this dream a reality.
Elden Ring Best 15 Faith Building – Early & Late Game
The Strength/Faith build in Elden Ring has some huge advantages, including high damage, access to several powerful buffs, and great durability, making it a great choice for newer players. However, it can be punishing, as most weapons with good Strength scaling have slower movesets, so a careful and defensive build path is required.
These are the stat benchmarks you'll want to achieve as you approach the full Strength/Faith build.
Prioritize reaching Vigor 40, Strength 40, Faith 40, and Endurance 25 when leveling. These stats serve as a baseline for your build’s durability and damage potential. Elden Ring isn’t exactly kind to builds that don’t get at least some Vigor, and Strength builds will take a hit. Fortunately, you don’t need much Endurance to equip some of the game’s heavier armor, as long as you’re willing to dedicate a Talisman slot to them.
