Lightning Blade vs Blessed Weapon
I have 50 faith,and im wondering what the damage added is with a saint's talisman at +10,and if blessed weapon is worth slotting into my 1 open attunment slot,with the others being Great Heal,Lightning Blade,Wrath of the Gods,and Emit Force.Thanks in advance.

Think this might help.

Short version buffs are meh and just like armor are for show and not function cause Miyazaki hard on for Bloodborn said so.

Blessed weapon is only good for high AR weapons, regen builds, or low faith builds.

With 50 faith use yorska's chime with lightning blade.

Gold Pine Resin will add almost as much damage as Lightning Blade at 60 faith with Yorshka's Chime +10; it's a decent chunk in AR difference, but after resistances it doesn't actually mean much damage disparity between them. One costs souls, the other FP and stat investment.
Blessed Weapon does very little damage wise, but adds some health regen. IMO great heal would be better.
You are best off going for Lightning Blade or Great Heal, as they both do better than your other spells. Choose between them based on if you need more damage (for a boss) or more healing (for a very long area or one with hard hitting enemies, like Irithyll).

Late reply,but i was helping someone. The reason i asked was because,again, i had one open attunment slot along with both great heal and lightning blade,and was wondering if it was worth slotting blessed weapon as well,with the thought that it might help against enemies/people with high lightning resist(even though i didnt say that lightning resist part).

Blessed weapon is not worth it.
You'd be better to use bless-gemed alt weapon in case you need it, and with Dorry's Gnawing in the slot for the likes resistant to lightening.

Blessed weapon with 60 int will add like 23 more AR to your weapon and a healing factor - similar or equal to the bless-gemed weapon. On a contraryWith Sharp Dragon Slayer Axe buffed with Lightening Weapon (50 FTH, 30 DEX) i had an axe grade weapon with ~780AR of an Ultra greatsword + some miracles to futher spiece of fight.

All in all, the only time you want a blessed weapon is when you are penetrating Catacumbs to stop skeletons from reanimating (it works). But is it even worth it anyway?
