[JoeBlack]

Weapons with Elden Ring's powerful lightning-themed Ashes of War such as Thunderbolt or Lightning Slash scale with Faith if a player infuses them with the Sacred Affinity (their basic attacks will do Physical and Holy damage, but their special attacks will still do lightning damage

Lightning infused weapons scale with dexterity. If you want lightning damage that scales with faith, use the electrify armament incant, or vyke's dragonbolt if you don't mind becoming weaker to lightning damage.

is not the same as having the scaling form base

I didn't say it was the same.

If you really want the maximum lightning damage and still able to cast lightning spells, do a faith/dex hybrid. 40 in each stat is very doable on NG and you will wreck everything in your path. As an added bonus dexterity speeds up casting time. Focus on faith first so you can cast more spells, the lightning scaling isn't going to be that significant until late game.

lightning incants are... incants, so you use faith for these. try them out, they're the coolest, imo.
you can always buff your weapons with the lightning-elemental buff incant(s).

Too bad. Lightning is Dex this time.
Stick your Lightning ashes on a weapon with good Dex scaling to get the best effect.

you can absolutely have a dex/faith build with lightning incants and lightning weapons. what's the problem?

Wants it all to scale mostly with faith I guess. In previous games lightning damage was tied to faith primarily or had no scaling at all.

But as you said, just run dex/faith and everythings more or less the same.

So just make the weapon Keen instead so the Ash is better. Any of the Lightning Ashes go great with a Keen Guardian's Swordspear.

Or... y'know... just forego Lightning weaponry and use the Lightning Spear incant for everything. THAT is Faith-scaled and effective.
