Demon's Souls PS5

Vitality Warrior

Add to Watchlist

This is the guide to the Vitality Warrior build for Demon's Souls for the PS5. Check here to find out what kind out of build Vitality Warrior is, the stat alignment for the build, and our recommended weapons!

What is the Vitality Warrior Build?

Use weapons without scaling

The Vitality Warrior uses weapons without scaling, allowing to put all stats into Vitality. In other words, upgrading your weapon is the only way to increase your damage output.

Vitality Warrior Build Stats

Stat Alignment with Temple Knight (SL86)

Stat Level Important Points
Vitality 50 ・Increase your Vitality until 50
Intelligence 15 ・The minimum requirement in order to use the Second Chance miralce
Endurance 40 ・Increase your Endurance to 40 for a comfortable amount of stamina
Strength 20 ・Adjust to fit your preferred weapon
Dexterity 12 ・18 at most in order to use the Nothern Regalia
Magic 6 ・Not needed
Faith 16 ・In order to use the Second Chance miracle
Luck 7 ・Not needed

A Vitality specialist build

Strength and Dexterity will have no influence on weapon damage, so this build will put the majority of its stats into Vitality and Stamina. Of course, there will be some minimum requirements in order to wield weapons, but there is no need to increase those stats any higher than the required minimum.

Using the Vitality Warrior Build

An up-close melee fighter

There is no particular change in the way the Vitality Warrior build plays compared to other melee builds. Two-hand wielding will raise your damage, but there will be no scaling with Strength.

Recommended Weapons for the Vitality Warrior

Dragon weapons

Dragon weapons, or weapons infused with fire, are a good match for the Vitality Warrior. A Dragon Long Sword can be picked up within Stonefang Tunnel. Also, by defeating the bearbugs in the tunnels, you can get Dragonstone, which can be used to upgrade Dragon weapons.

Northern Regalia

One unique weapon that does not scale is Northern Regalia. Depending on the player's World Tendency, this weapon can have extremely high damage. One drawback though is that it cannot be obtained until NG+. However, the Demonbrandt weapon can be obtained before then. That being said, getting ahold of the Demonbrandt is no easy task.
