One spell I'd strongly recommend on any faith build is Flame, Cleanse Me! It's saved me more times than I can count in dungeons with poison and rot, and half the places in Caelid.

[lilsmack]

I love how you are making a variety of cool builds that are fun instead of just showing just the op weapons

[oprahwithrabies]

Loving the individuality of your builds, I've tried almost all of them and I'm at NG+++ these being non-meta and highly effective is so important for the community.

Love this build and with 2 more arcane you can get in the range of "Breath" weapon spells, including rotting breath which can massively alleviate your "AoE" problems. That breath will chew trough hordes of lesser mobs and is also very effective in some bosses (Also it does not care about shields)

I am playing a Faith playthrough right now and I feel is like a Swiss knife, you have something for everything and really allows you to be "Creative", you have fire, lightning and Sacred damage, a myriad of spells, heals, self buffs and a lot of other utility spells (less fall damage, Cleanse Rot, Cleanse poison, etc).

My first playthrough was Full Dex, Nagakiba and Bow, all in Dex, Vigor and Endurance (no mind at all not even FP potions, used Mimic ashes that summon with life so no FP needed even for that), and although very effective after a while it becomes very repetitive, with this Faith builds and all of the videos you are putting up I feel like I can change my playstyle and adapt so much, and I am always looking forward to find new weapons, new spells etc.

Great Faith guides! helped me a lot.

Can we just appreciate that this guys build videos never come with the boring-ass clickbait titles?
"OMFG! OVERPOWERED, GAMEBREAKING BUILD!! ONESHOT EVERYTHING IN THE GAME!!!"

[epistale]

All of these builds are so good! Amazing work! Also super refreshing to see footage of combat against level appropriate enemies, I see so many builds that claim to be so powerful but only have footage of fighting godricks soldiers or early game bosses

[Sabamonster]

Faith in general feels really, really satisfying in Elden Ring in comparison to the other Souls games. I was hesitant and actually ended up deciding that was going to be my first build simply because I wanted to see. By endgame of my first playthrough I was... ludicrously overpowered and able to pretty much deal with anything at anytime with minimal effort. You always have a hard-counter to what you're fighting. You have variation and options for both Melee, Range and even going from one to the other. You have access to bleed incantations that supplement Melee and some of the weapons that scale with Faith are ridiculous.

Make a wretch that uses rotten breath and call it the ex wife build

[JosephFerraroDesign]

Thank you for this amazing flood of carefully curated, very well produced video series. I'm continually enamored and engaged with the build choices available in this game and you've done a wonderful job making it accessible and exciting for a giant global audience. Kudos.

[DaffaBun]

'Flame Grant Me Strength' would be a really good addition to that build once you get enough spell slots, it boosts both physical & flame damage which stacks with 'Golden Vow' & any buffs you apply to your weapon such as Bloodflame.
Golden Vow also boosts 'Proection Of The Erdtree' for extra tankyness in almost any situation.
I usually apply those along with BlessingsBoon(<Very FP efficient) or heal over time). And to make the most of those I rushed to get Old Lord's Talisman to extend the duration of all aforementioned menagerie of buffs, but that talisman is very late game.

[zangatsubankai]

I wound up going a bit higher in Arcane in one of my builds, and found a neat little combo of Cross Nagi, Spectral Lance and Blackflame Blade. Since (As the WONDERFUL) wiki mentions, you can proc the burn effect even at range. And Spectral Lance does an INCREDIBLE amount of poise damage.

[christopherjohnson]

Thanks so much for this build. I am having a ton of fun with it. I started the game thinking I would make a faith/strength tanky build, but quickly realized the resources would take quite a while to reach. When I found your Blackflame spell blade guide, leading to this one, I retooled after beating Rennala and have been enjoying it ever since. Looking forward to an endgame version!

[whatusayinbruv]

Shard of Alexander talisman is pretty good too if you like spamming Ashes of War. 15% damage increase is very much worth it for most skills.

[dakhariiballard]

Fire, Grant me strength amps fire damage and physical damage, and can stack with golden vow. would definitely recommend adding that to your list of incantations

[ronnyturau]

I'd love to see the updated 150 version of this especially now in 1.04. Im running this in NG+ now with godslayer greatsword or dual godskin peelers with black flame tornado on my main and flame of the redmanes in my off hand

[luckydony]

Will we see a Fist / claw build ? I feel like they're underused even though they can pack a punch, literally lol

[DeepBoxGames]

I’d like to see a update to this video for around lvl 150 build also using intelligence for a Reaper build. I’d just like to see this build also use Prince of Death staff and spells like Rancorcall and Fia’s Mist in addition to a scythe and black flame magic. That’s what I’ve been trying to build myself and would love your insight!

[centhegibbon]

7:40 you can also activate the buff during the animation of an Light Attack, making the need to re-buff not quite as desperate thankfully

[prince_warhero]

Out of all the faith builds I have tried this is easily my favorite since it's very versatile and has multiple dmg types !! Thanks

[LordMatsuda]

It's a love-hate relationship with you Fextra cuz EVERY build video you propose makes me questioning all my playthrough and i spend the first hour of every session wondering if I should follow you or not lol
