Faith is a stat in Dark Souls.

Description[]

Faith is an attribute used to meet requirements for melee weapons, Talismans, and spells; Faith softcaps are 30/50. Similar to Intelligence, the amount of damage you deal and the amount of HP you heal from healing based Miracles will correlate with the Talisman you are using rather than your overall point investment into Faith. Faith is also a weapon modifier, increasing magical damage for unique weapons (see Weapon Scaling) any weapon upgraded down the Divine or Occult paths. Faith also serves to boost your magic defense. You will want to meet but not exceed the requirements to use spells, weapons, and Talismans.

Faith also increases the lightning damage of the Dragonslayer Spear and the physical damage of the (cursed) Greatsword of Artorias.

Weapon scaling[]

The following are weapons that scale with faith, and their level of scaling, when not upgraded. Weapon scaling may change when upgraded.

Notes[]

  • Almost every miracle has some level of Faith requirement. Joining the Warrior of Sunlight covenant initially requires 25 Faith (50 Faith pre-patch 1.04/1.05), but the requirements can be lowered through cooperative play. For every boss that a player helps another defeat, that requirement will go down by 5 Faith.
