Elden Ring Prisoner Notes & Tips

• This class' stats are optimized for:
  • Strength/Intelligence hybrid builds where Dexterity does not need raising any higher. If more Dexterity is required, it becomes tied Samurai.
  • Dexterity/Intelligence hybrid builds where required Strength is between 10 and 12. Any lower, Astrologer becomes optimal. Any higher, it ties with Samurai.
• The design seems influenced by Griffith/Femto from the Berserk manga and anime series.
• Has the lowest Faith of all the starting classes.
• The best pick for Dexterity/Intelligence hybrid builds demanding 11 or more Strength. Astrologer outperforms at 10 strength or less.
• Though a more advanced playstyle, it's hard to argue that this Class has an exceptional loadout and stat spread. Not recommended for new players, but will shine in the hands of a Souls veteran.
• A good start for Dex + Int builds.
