I’m sure there are weapons I missed as I have not explored the whole game yet so let me know if there’s any weapons that I should grab for the next video

[@jacobbillups4715]

There is a pure faith fist weapon in the round table called cipher pata. Requires 30fth and does pure holy dmg. Haven’t upgraded it to max yet but being a fist weapon it’s great for spamming down normal enemies and isn’t as great on bosses. When you two hand it it becomes dual wield holy claws and the skill on it does a forward holy thrust that casts out in front of the end of the weapon

[@SuperRicardopedro]

The sword of flame and night ?

The banished knight greatsword is also good . It doesn't have a passive but it scales with faith better the scythe

[@TheFearGrizzly]

@@SuperRicardopedro yea but it also requires 24 intelligence so its more of a intelligence and faith than just a faith build but it's a REALLY cool sword

[@ethanblue261]

The other cool thing about the winged scythe is that when using angels wings, it adds an effect that won't allow enemies to use flasks for a certain amount of time. That includes in pvp!

[@Phillink]

@Jesse Hammil yes

[@Imlogini]

dude this timing couldn’t be anymore perfect. i’m super new to the souls genre and as a confessor i’m trying to learn all this stuff and become a decent build. keep it up!

@@Imlogini so confessor is just your starting class and not your build. That’s why he asked that. So you’re probably either making a faith build or a paladin build

[@tyleryoung8049]

The Inseparable Sword (Greatsword) that you get from finishing Fia’s quest line if you handed over twinned armor is a great faith weapon. It scales to B-faith scaling and has sacred blade ash of war which adds more faith damage. Mine’s sitting at 762 damage with a 38 faith score

Mine is at 857 (without buff) while using the holy talisman (forgot the name but it’s the one that increases holy damage at the cost of physical negation) and buffed it’s at 960. Using a wonder flask it’s at 1080.

[@rorybanta515]

I'm using the winged scythe on my faith build and this thing is unreal. That starting sword had me struggling but as soon as I hit that 24 faith and got radagons soreseal I became a dang reaper. It shreds bosses

[@jacobbillups4715]

I’m not as far as you in the game but a PSA to add for the winged scythe for everyone considering it: 1.) That unique spinning attack is also amazing dealing with NPC invaders (and potentially players as well) because when you land it it prevents the enemy from healing for a good while. For souls vets it’s like hitting them with a Lloyd talisman. For example that invader in round table with the frostbite and bleed. They normally chug a flask mid fight, but if you hit them with that attack and proc the bleed it eviscerates them. 2.) At least for me one of the huge draws of using that scythe is it actually has quite a bit of stagger potential. When I first went to stormveil and was getting slapped by those knights every weapon wouldn’t stop their attacks so they’d hit right through and wreck me. Then the scythe almost every hit would interrupt them making them leagues more manageable. This point is more for dex/faith ppl as str/faith aren’t going to have any issues pancaking enemies.

[@TheReaperOfChess]

What is a good build for a melee scythe player? i am getting the game today and wanted to get some research going for it. can i duel wield the grave and winged? and if so what is a good build for it? what class should i start with? i looked at either the confessor or the other guy but i cant decide

[@TheAcherion]

@moxsy please pin this

[@jacobbillups4715]

@@TheReaperOfChess Well that depends, mainly on wether you want to have faith as a part of your build or not. The winged scythe we are talking about scales with faith and requires 24 faith just to use properly. That being said you can definitely still have a hybrid build where you primarily fight melee and just use faith for buffs/heals. For this option I’d pick confessor, then go for a fth/dex build If you are just trying to dual wield scythes with no faith/magic you’d want to skip this scythe, grab two others and do a pure dex build

[@AndrewMystx]

@@TheReaperOfChess I’m doing a dex/faith build with bandit, dual wield holy bleeding scythe, archery and dragon incantations. Might be weaker than other classes at early game, but OP from mid-game onwards imo.

Right now I’m only ~lv45, with just enough str/dex to wield the scythe and like 30 fth lol.

[@ebenaufiero]

Agree, would love to see a video going over the best faith armor. For early game, mid game, and late game.

[@shadowsong6]

I mean, armor doesn't do anything but add defensive stats, so there isn't a "best" for faith. Just wear what you like

[@JayJoStanAccount]

Blasphemous Blade is easily the best. Great stats especially when upgrading, A top tier AoW, High Stagger and probably the best perk for endgame content, Healing on mob kill. I have started to upgrade my Black Blade aswell to duel wield and they hit like a truck. Also for potential PVP builds, The Uchi and Nagi duel wield with Sacred AoWs put on them, Super fast duel attacks, Bleed buildup, Great range. Slice and Dice opponents

[@privateuser7]

I use powerstanced blasphemous blade RH with sacred claymore LH. At 50 fai 40 str they both hit for over 700 without any buffs, with buffs they are insane. Jumping attack with powerstanced greatswords does insane stagger damage too

[@SatanicViking97]

Not disagreeing but it sucks when the boss is fast or jumps alot!

[@mustafabalc4951]

This comment itself is like 100x more helpful than this bs video. I used every weapon that he listed and they are trash. In the other hand blasphemous blade is god tier but it kinda sucks that its only flame dmg so flame resistant enemies can be tough. My other advices are maliketh's blackblade(1 full skill can deal up to 6k dmg) and godslayer's greatsword( little bit slow but it hits harder than maliketh and its black flame) these are the only 3 weapons you need in faith build

[@johnathancox4162]

@@mustafabalc4951 how? This is a decent guide with the best weapons on it minus 1. The blasphemous blade is good but the winged scythe in pvp and pve is better. Having a normal weapon with faith scaling yet still getting bloodhound step is priceless. Coded sword for turtles and in general just bad ass looking amazing.

Not only mob kill, it heals you every time you use the AoW. And not some low numbers, easily around 100-200 HP. Love that weapon. Is slow, though, and not for every situation.

Wow. The faith katana build makes for a solid dex option for pvp. This is so damn cool.

[@KhamTVinc]

In the first min and 45 seconds you helped me understand so much of how dmg works. Thank you.

[@LinaSan]

I'd like to ask for an honorable mention for the Blasphemous Blade and its crazy weapon art, and another one for the Sword of Night and Flame, even tho it's more for Int/Faith hybrids, it's still a great weapon, even after the recent nerfs.

[@nickolasaday6777]

The banished knight halberd starts at lvl 8 and has c scaling. Very strong pick , you get it from Morne castle.

[@lukebutler2125]

Running it myself. The same NPC invades in Liurnia later and you can pick it up then

[@leipzigergnom]

I kinda want a halberd for my faith build, so I'll see if I can find that

Great Video and Love the Wing Scythe? I have all the stones just not the Sacred one and i'm a Faith Build so feels bad. Ty for video

[@EnesGemci]

You are currently preparing my favorite build for Faith. I am really grateful to you, thank you very much 🙂

[@10Diyes]

Theres a Morningstar in a carriage near castle morne that is a good 1H sword like alternative, it has bleed as well…but what I’m using now is a sacred claymore. I just love the poking roll that its move-set has very good for poking bosses.

[@stormshadowoffire]

The blasphemous sword is pretty great too. The weapon art does a lot of damage, has great range, and heals you when you land it on enemies. You need 22 str to wield it but that's worth it imo

[@Moxsy]

Looked into it and it seems amazing. Haven’t reached that boss yet but will grab it for another video

[@rohail3996]

Grab the strength talisman, I already got my strength to 16 to wield the winged scythe and the talisman gives +5 strength only need one more level into it personally.

I want to throw in the Magmaworm's Scaled Sword it has faith scaling C but does bonus fire dmg instead of holy. It is a Curved Great Sword and requires 24 str, 15 dex, 18 fai but this thing slaps.

[@NilsHello]

Yeah and the moveset is absolutely amazing with insanely quick wide attacks. Easilly best faith big sword in the game alongside sword of night and flame.

[@jack8162]

Does the fire damage scale with faith then? Scaling is so confusing in these games. Literally the last thing I did was beat that boss and get this sword so now I'm gonna +4 it and try it out I think.

[@puredamagez]

loves the video, thanks alot for the help ^^ would you say it's better to 2 hand the winged scythe, or have winged PLUSS normal scythe ?

[@its_mew_]

"13000 bleed proc" to clarify, bleed damage is % based on the HP pool of the target. its always massive. bleed is meta AF

[@azz111full]

I have been using the winged scythe for easily 20 hours and I have never seen an enemy take blood damage... any ideas?

[@MAGWAII]

@@azz111full consistency on hitting them often is usually what will allow it to happen. Some enemies are resistant to it and it takes longer I think. I fought a boss recently and it wasent until it was 20% health where the bleed proc hit and it straight up killed it. On medium health enemies hitting for a bunch quickly you will have a harder time noticing unless you get a lot of quick hits in. Duel wielding bleed weapons is sick

[@archieliam717]

Boost arcane. That helps bleed proc quicker, get a good bleed weapon Anastasia Twinblade, Rivers of Blood maybe even Ghiza wheel if you’re memeimg Or a standard weapon, uchi, Scythe then infuse the weapon with bleed to make it better

[@shephsnap]

had been using the reduvia that you get from the npc invader and the skill is literally a blood blade projectile y’all have to try it

[@ZedNull.]

early game sure, when your killing bosses in like 4 hits its irrelevant because it will never activate.

The magma wyrm’s scale sword is also a good faith weapon

[@daveyjoneslocker4703]

5:38 THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I DID. I am now a sacred shinobi of the lightning and it’s so fun. I also keep the Cipher Pata on my right hand secondary so I can whip out pure faith unblockable assassin’s creed gauntlets. It’s such a nutty play style and so fun. I have exactly the minimum strength and dex required to wield the uchi and every other bit of damage comes from my faith. I have bloodhound step on right katana with faith scaling, and sacred blade on left hand katana. While I’m dual wielding I teleport. If I left hand 2 hand I can shoot the sacred blade arc and buff up.

[@daveyjoneslocker4703]

@@marcossimonetto2688 yeah bro. You can change the affinity your weapon scales with when you change the ash of war. There are I think 5 different whetstone blades that unlock new affinities. If you want faith scaling you’ll want to find the sanctified whetstone. But it’s in the capital and getting in there can be a challenge. The fire whetstone blade is in Redmayne castle and the magic whetstone blade is in raya lucaria. Can’t remember the rest but I remember finding the first 3 easily.

[@treborlavok]

I’m surprised you didn’t mention the halo scythe. It’s ridiculously powerful for a ranged weapon and I’ve used it alone to down bosses from magma wyrms to morgott. The best part about it is it’s damage output and scaling of its ranged attack and the fact that it takes such little fp to cast and relies mainly on stamina, you’re almost constantly attacking. Pair that with a good summon to hold aggro and you can just go to town on anything in front of you.

As i go further time will show me more im sure. i also love the same ash on the uchi katana and used that for quite a long time it just dosent hit like the scythes they take massive chunks.subbed!
