Elden Ring: How to play the Vagabond

In Elden Ring, the Vagabond class is a tank/strength construct that concentrates on dishing significant melee damage. The Vagabond has a high vitality, strength, and dexterity starting at level nine. A longsword, halberd, and heating shield are among the game's first items. There are two excellent routes for this class.

The primary reason you should take this class is to improve your vigour and endurance so you can endure more hits and carry more items. You will be able to wear heavier armour and have more poise if you do so. When foes hit you over the head with a sword, having more composure means your strikes won't be interrupted. Being hit by foes on a regular basis will diminish your composure, allowing you to be viscerally attacked. If you concentrate on your equipped load and endurance, a great shield with 100% damage reduction will make you virtually invincible while guarding.

Another option is to focus a lot of your stats on strength and become a dual-wielding monster. To have a heavy equipment load, you'll need to pay points into endurance, or you can employ the Great-Jars Arsenal talisman. Your best option is dual-wielding greatswords, which aren't too heavy but still deal a lot of damage. As soon as you reach the First Step, run to the Gate front Ruins and collect the Lordsworn's Greatsword, which you must pass through in order to proceed through the game.

The Claymore, on the other hand, is an early game greatsword that you may get in Castle Morne by running past the mound of burning harpies and entering the first room on your right and opening the chest there.

Because you can readily use both weapons when dual-wielding, it's ideal for jumping attacks. Because most bosses will rapidly respond, you'll need to dodge roll out of the way just after the strike. Because Vagabond is such an aggressive class, you'll want to invest some points in endurance. Because dual-wielding attacks require a lot of stamina, having extra endurance is always a good thing.

If you wish to gain some stronger armour early on, you can buy the Knight's Set from the Twin Maiden Husks at the Roundtable Hold. The Iron Set armour, which can be purchased from the Nomadic Merchant near the Castle Morne Rampart seat of grace, is another fantastic outfit. Once you've defeated a few tough enemies, you'll want to swap these sets out for stronger armour in the later game.

Dump your stats into vigour, strength, and endurance, locate a nice big weapon or two, a solid pair of armour with 100% damage reduction, and a powerful great shield if you desire one, as previously indicated. Regardless of how you play this build, you'll need to raise your equipment load, which you can do by increasing endurance or using talisman slots. However, you should save your talisman slots for other boosts.
