Which class to play is the most crucial (and challenging) decision that a player takes in a new Elden Ring game. It can be difficult because there are 10 different playable classes to pick from. Fortunately, Elden Ring has a variety of options for any kind of player, and the adaptable game rules make creating a one-of-a-kind build simpler than ever. The Vagabond class, one of the most potent and approachable classes, will be covered in this guide. So here is the ideal way to construct the Vagabond, regardless of whether you are a beginner or a seasoned player.
Getting Started
Base Stats
Most gamers would quickly notice that the Vagabond stands out after reviewing the data for each class. With such a large starting pool, it is understandable why the vagabond has such a large following. Nevertheless, the Vagabond still excels in two different areas. He is called a "tank" right away because he has a huge amount of health (called "vigor") and a huge amount of strength.
| Level | 9 |
| Vigor | 15 |
| Mind | 10 |
| Endurance | 11 |
| Strength | 14 |
| Dexterity | 13 |
| Intelligence | 9 |
| Faith | 9 |
| Arcane | 7 |
The Vagabond appears to be the ideal choice for anyone wishing to play a big, powerful player.
Initial Loadout
The Vagabond has some of the best starting gear in the game, in addition to starting with attributes that are better than optimal. The longsword, halberd, and heater shield are included in this package. Additionally, included is the full set of Vagabond Knight armor. Generally speaking, the longsword is a more potent weapon than the Halberd, although they are both still very powerful! The Heater Shield should also be used because it provides 100% damage mitigation and works well with the Vagabond's strong endurance. The Golden Seed is the sole memento that should, in reality, be taken into consideration. Any other item quickly loses its usefulness in the game. However, the stonesword key can be somewhat helpful if necessary.
Important Gear
The fact that the Vagabond's equipment remains functional even after leaving the starting area is one of the finest aspects of playing as him. Use smithing stones on any of the initial objects without hesitation! However, it is advised to look for fresh ashes of the battle for both the longsword and shield. There are many potent ashes of war available in the Warmaster's Shack in North Limgrave that can be used by the Vagabond's melee weapons. Give this top priority right now. The great sword of the Lordsworn is a particularly reliable early weapon. After only two points are added to the strength stat (16), it may be employed successfully and is extremely powerful against foes in the early stages of the game. Additionally, its high critical damage is the ideal complement for users who are adept at backtracking and parrying. The great sword of the Lordsworn is held on the back of a wagon.
Leveling Up
Maintaining the ratios close to where they were when he started is a solid general rule for leveling up the wanderer. Maintain high levels of vigor, strength, and dexterity. Never waste valuable rune points on boosting mana-based stats like faith or intelligence. Additionally, it is not required to level up Arcane too much because the majority of game items work well with the Vagabond. Remember that using magic as a Vagabond is not advised. It doesn't matter whether you choose to seek faith or wisdom, though, if you actually want to have some form of incantation or magic handy. Both are going to be equally difficult to build. Despite this, there are many early spells that are intelligence-based and very few early spells that are faith-based.
How To Play
There are typically two ways to play the Vagabond. The options are a more active damage dealer or a full-on heavy tank. Equip heavy armor, massive swords, and shields to play more like a tank. The dodge-roll will, unfortunately, be significantly less effective as a result, but your shield should more than make up for it. When playing this style, it's important to pay attention to your stamina because falling behind will make you incredibly vulnerable. Try to perfect both the parry and the backstab, as was mentioned earlier.
It will be crucial to carry less weight in order to play more passively. The vagabond is still a tank, of course, but being able to roll fairly quickly is crucial. You should be able to execute a dodge-roll successfully if you maintain yours equip load below 70%. Playing in this way will allow for a more adaptable combat style and is a little bit safer, even though you may not be able to deal as much damage per second as your more powerful tank counterpart.
