Elden Ring: Best Build For Sword of Night and Flame

Elden Ring is the pinnacle of the FromSoftware game that showcased and is a masterful representation of what a Souls game should be like.

Sword of Night and Flame is one of the Legendary armaments and is widely regarded as one of the strongest weapons in Elden Ring.

How to Obtain

Sword of Night and Flame can be obtained from the Caria Manor location. To obtain it, travel to the Manor Lower Level Site of Grace and proceed across the rooftops that are present on the east side. From the first intersection, travel to the north side until you reach the next intersection. Keep going north from there and you will come across a walkway.

Open it and players will obtain the Sword of Night and Flame.

Sword of Night and Flame is a Straight Sword and is one of the Legendary Armaments of Elden Ring. Straight Swords have a very good moveset with decent range and fast attacks. It is one of the few weapons in the game that is designed for both Faith and Intelligence Builds. It also has one of the best Ash of War called as the Night-and-Flame Stance.

This Skill allows the players to hold a stance position. Players can then follow up with a normal attack to fire a beam of Magic damage that scales off of Intelligence. Players can also perform a strong attack and that will result in a sweeping attack dealing Fire damage. This attack scales off of Faith. Both these attacks are incredibly powerful and versatile. Magic attack can be used to deal massive amounts of damage to a boss whereas the Fire attack can help in crowd control.

Stats to Focus

Sword of Night and Flame has a stat requirement of 12 in Strength and Dexterity, as well as 24 in Intelligence and Faith. It comes with a D scaling in Faith and Intelligence that can be upgraded to B with the maximum upgrade. Strength and Dexterity come with an initial scaling of E that can only be upgraded to D. Since players mostly want to use Night-and-Flame stance, they should prioritize Faith and Intelligence first. Then players should focus on Vigor and Mind for extra health and mana points.

Synergistic Weapons and Spells

Sword of Night and Flames works best with a build that prioritizes both Faith and Intelligence. The best thing about such build is that players can use both Incantations and Sorceries. Incantations require Faith to use whereas Sorceries require Intelligence to use. So players are free to choose whatever spell they like and what suits their playstyle the best.

Synergistic Talismans

  • Rellana’s Cameo: After being in a Stance position for 1 second, the damage of the follow-up attack is increased by 45 percent.
  • Godfrey Icon: Increases the damage of charged Spells and Skills by 15 percent.
  • Shard of Alexander: Damage of Skills is increased by 15 percent.
  • Carian Filgreed Crest: Lowers the FP consumption of Skills by 25 percent.
