Any faith-str build recommendation?

[DAWN OF THE DEAD]

yes
have faith in you strength

[Tao314zdin]

Keeping blashemous blade to swap never hurts, so have enough weight-capacity for 13.5 in the main-hand.

[Sephylon]

beast incant with big bonk stick or the dagger

[Yal]

- Clawmark Seal (scales with both strength and faith)
- Dragonclaw and Stone of Gurranq incantations
- Cinqueda to buff spell power, maybe powerstanced with Black Knife for the deathflame debuff (dual daggers is more of a dex thing but it's the fastest moveset in the game)
- Celebrant's Skull or Great Stars with the Prayerful Strike ash
- Cipher Pata has zero weight so there's no reason NOT to use it if you're going to have 30 faith
- Visage shield (it's awesome both as a shield and as a flamethrower)

Ordovis' Greatsword and Siluria's Tree are some of my favorite weapons, and are perfect for a charged-skill-centric build. Grafted Dragon is a really good sidearm for taking out any kind of tree monster actually. The Godslayer's Greatsword is also fun.

I also like to use lots of buffs. Golden Vow, Protection of the Erdtree, Flame Grant me Strength, and a weapon buff if your weapon is infusable before a boss battle gives you an enormous boost. Just remember the Old Lord's Talisman if you go that route.

that one is a dex/faith weapon not str but I agree it's a great weapon

dex+faith kinda works better anyway since dex also increases spell casting speed

Siluria's Tree with a pure faith scaling seal which would be Finger Seal, Godslayer's Seal or Erdtree Seal depending on your Faith level.

Level 26 Faith and below is Finger Seal

Level 27 - 69 Faith is Godslayer's Seal

Level 70 and up Faith is Erdtree Seal

I say those Seals specifically and not any other because healing spells only scale off of the Faith portion of a Seals scaling. Even something like a Clawmark Seal with 99 Faith and 99 Strength is going to heal less than a basic Finger Seal with 20 Faith.

Pumping Faith for better healing leans into the Paladin vibe. I like to take all blue flasks and only heal with spells. It's actually very efficient. With 38 Mind, 80 Faith, +10 Erdtree Seal and max blue flasks you can heal 83,000 HP with Lord's Heal. It's a LOT of healing and you don't have to go that hard into Faith and Mind to hit the tens of thousands of healing. For comparison, 14 +12 red flasks with the talisman to buff them heals 13,608.

Increasing Faith a bunch also improves the Ash of War for Siluria's Tree, Strength does too, and that thing hits like a truck! You can make it do like 3000 damage per hit.

Blasphemous Blade is absolutely busted in the damage and healing it's Ash of War boasts and can be two handed at 15/15, making it fairly accessible. The skill only scales with upgrade level and faith, too, so you can either use the sword as a str/fth or a pure faith weapon, depending on your preferences.

Grafted Dragon, Finger Seal, some basic sword with good strength for clearing enemies until you can find something better honestly.

ignore blasphemous blade, its lame, use gargoyles black sword. faster AoW and higher damage with better move set. triple rings of faith is a great spell, keep Flame grant me Strength, and rock sling. Use rock sling or quick enemies, as you can poise break with it then get a ez swing off.

Rock sling is a sorcery. Did you mean Stone of Gurranq?

As i said its new campaign not NG+ both of these weapons are late game.

gargoyle sword is bad for a single reason, it deals holy damage, including its skill, which already makes it much worse than the blasphemous blade, almost everything is ressistant to holy, while fire has a much wider range of enemies weak to it.
