A Faith Build in Dark Souls III focuses on Miracles, which are spells powered by the Faith stat. Players can acquire various Miracles and items to enhance their divine abilities. Key NPCs like Irina of Carim are central to learning new Miracles and progressing certain questlines related to faith.
Acquiring Miracles and Items
- Divine Braille Tome of Lothric: This item is crucial for learning new Miracles.
- Irina of Carim: Give the Divine Braille Tome of Lothric to Irina in Firelink Shrine. She will then sell you holy or dark miracles, influencing potential quest outcomes.
- Eygon of Carim: Associated with Irina, Eygon's presence is tied to her storyline.
NPC Interactions and Questlines
The choices made with Irina of Carim can affect her questline, potentially leading to different endings for her character. For example, purchasing dark miracles from her can lead to a different outcome compared to focusing solely on holy miracles. The interaction with Irina is a significant part of a Faith Build's progression.
Challenges with Faith Builds
Some players report difficulties with certain enemy encounters, such as the twin crocodile wolves found down the ladder behind the iluo wall after the area with the dead giants, following the Pontiff Sulyvhan boss fight. These enemies can agro simultaneously, and weapons with limited range, like a great axe, may struggle to defeat them quickly, even if they can be killed in 4 or 5 hits.
