What Does Vigor Do?

Add to Watchlist

Vigor is one of the 8 stats in Elden Ring Nightreign. Read on to learn what Vigor does, how to increase Vigor, and which characters have the best Vigor scaling.

What Does Vigor Do?

Directly Influences Health Points

Vigor is the primary stat when it comes to health and survivability. An increase in this stat will mean an increase in the player's HP. This stat can be seen as the red bar on the upper left part of the screen.

All Stats Explained

Lets You Survive More Hits

Having more Vigor allows the player to tank more hits from an enemy. This can be translated to a tanky playstyle where a player goes to the frontline to try and protect the team.

How to Increase Vigor

Increased Through Leveling Up

Leveling up in Elden Ring Nightreign automatically increases all your stats, including Vigor. How much a certain stat increases will depend on your character's stat scaling.

How to Level Up Fast

Increased by Equipping Relics

Relics can provide stat boosts for the player. Keep in mind that Relics are randomly obtained and you will need to farm Relics in order to get your deisred stat boost.
