Zealous Fury Templar Build Stats and Attributes
Early one you will want to farm for a Brass Shield and the Golden Vow ashes. You will want to target medium rolls throughout this build, start with raising Vigor to 15 then STR to 16 and DEX to 13 for the Claymore, this weapon offers slashes and stabs. Make your way south to Castle Morne to obtain the Claymore. From here you can play sword and shield or talisman and shield with the early incantations, use Golden Vow to buff, you heal to heal and fire spells for damage. By level 40 you should have about 20 Vigor, 14 Mind, 14 Endurance and 24 Faith and can level as you choose, want more hp, then go Vigor, more FP go Mind, need more stamina (use the turtle talisman) or equip load go Endurance and when those feel good go Faith for damage. Try to level faith 2 or 3 to 1 on the other states with a goal of 45 Faith by level 70. Sword and Shield with incantations will carry you quite well into the later game where you want to target the Blasphemous Blade as early as you can. Until this point, before you begin dual-wielding Greatswords you can choose to forgo the shield and do so sooner. Obtain the Claw Talisman and prioritize jumping L1 attacks for massive damage and poise damage. With high Faith you have options for Holy and Fire damage on your swords as well as lightning, fire, holy primary incantations, a large variety of buffs, magic, ice, rot dragon incantations, poison and bleed incantations and so much more.
