Performance Insights
Faith Builds scale exceptionally well with Faith investment, unlocking potent incantations and enhancing the effectiveness of their weapons. Sacred Blade AoW greatly elevates their melee damage, transforming their weapons into divine conduits. They possess a wide repertoire of healing and support spells, including Heal, Cure Poison, and Golden Vow. By utilizing the Erdtree Heal incantation, Faith Builds can regenerate large amounts of HP, making them formidable in endurance battles. However, their reliance on Faith may compromise damage output compared to other specialized builds.
