Which weapon to choose for this Force build on Elden Ring?
Let's start together by seeing two weapons that seem worth it for this Elden Ring Force build and what we want to do with them. The first is the Bane of the Giants which is a hammer which will scale on Strength in B, as well as on Dexterity (in B too).
Another weapon that will interest us greatly here is the Great Heavy Swordfish which is a weapon that will scale in Strength (C), as well as in Dexterity (E). To obtain it, nothing too complicated, you just have to go to Caelid. You should see a cart traveling on the roads.
Follow the latter and as soon as possible climb to the back. There you will find a chest that you will simply have to open to get your hands on this swordfish. As for War Ash to equip on these weapons, Lion's Claw is a good idea.
Via the latter, you will jump on the enemy and inflict a big blow which will hurt a lot. Furthermore, as we have just seen, you will be able to recover the swordfish from the first minutes of the game if you wish and manage to get on the cart discreetly.
As for the attribute points to distribute on your character, here is where you should be once you have reached level 150. The main statistics that you will seek to increase on this build, is obviously the Force.
For this one, you will want to reach and even exceed 60 points. The other characteristic that you will seek to increase is Vigor. Obviously, you're going to take hits and better to have HP to survive. The idea is therefore to succeed in raising this score to around 60 points too.
Equipment pieces to choose
As for the pieces of equipment to provide, there is one item that we will absolutely recommend, it is the “Finger Seal”. The latter will award you 25 faith points and allow you to use two very important incantations “Flame Strengthen Me” and “Golden Oath”.
Let's then move on to the talismans that we advise you to carry: “Alexander's Fragment” which increases the attack power of skills, “Favor of the World Tree” which increases HP and endurance, “Ritual Sword Talisman” which increases attacks when HP is low and “Green Turtle Talisman” which increases stamina regeneration.
For the armor, it's up to you to see if you think you have enough damage. If this is the case, go for resistance instead. If you think you're lacking a bit, you can go for more offensive armor. Finally, The last point to raise is that of the vial of tears.
For the latter, take the “Cracked Tear with Stone Stings” which will allow you to facilitate the breaking of posture. Next, choose the “Tipped Cracked Tear” which will temporarily increase the power of your charged attacks.
Now that we've covered all that, let's look at how to play this Force build on Elden Ring. Before starting the fight, take the tear vial with the effects that we have just seen. Then use your faith to activate the two incantations.
“Flame Strengthen Me” will increase the damage of your physical attacks and fire spells by 20% for the next 30 seconds. “Golden Oath” allows it to increase damage by 15% and reduce damage taken by 10%. In short, you will have a big buff in terms of your damage.
The idea is then to take advantage of this to use your war ashes and literally melt the enemy's HP bar at the start of the fight. With your big attacks and the tear you will also have the possibility of breaking the posture and inflicting even more damage.
