OMG you guys, I've been maining Revenant in Elden Ring Nightreign since launch week and let me tell you – choosing weapons for this necromancer queen is WILD confusing 😅 At first I thought "claws = perfect" because that's her starter kit, but surprise surprise! It's all about that FAITH scaling ✨ Revenant's got the highest Faith stat among all Nightfarers, making holy incantations slay harder than ever. But here's the tea ☕️: those starter claws only work because they scale with Faith, not 'cause they're claws! Mind blown? Same. And don't get me started on how her Arcane scaling turns poison/bleed builds into total cheese machines 💀

💫 Why Faith Weapons = Revenant's BFFs

Honestly? Anything scaling with Faith turns her into a goddess. Head straight to Training Grounds and test weapons like a mad scientist – that menu shows scaling tiers clearer than my skincare routine 😂 S-tier Faith weapons? We stan Coded Sword and Cipher Pata... but good luck finding them before NG+! For us mortals, these are my holy grails:

  • Halo Scythe 🌙: Bleed buildup + Miquella's Ring of Light skill = holy damage fireworks

  • Vyke's War Spear 🔥: Madness buildup that'll make invaders rage-quit

  • Inquisitor's Girandole ⚔️: Underrated beast for holy damage + stance breaking

Pro tip: Even C/D-tier Faith weapons slap with her stats! Focus on holy damage or status effects – Revenant turns mid-tier gear into endgame melt machines.

✨ Secret OP Passives You NEED

FP management is Revenant's Achilles' heel 😭 No built-in regen means we live by PASSIVE BUFFS! These effects work even when weapons are stowed:

🔥 Must-have passives:

  • FP gain on hit (life-saving for summon spam!)

  • Charged incantation damage boost

  • Faster casting speed ⚡️

  • Reduced spell/incantation FP cost

Seriously, a weapon with +FP on hit changed my whole playstyle! Suddenly I could chain 3 skeleton summons without chugging cerulean tears 💀

💀 When In Doubt... Claws Out!

Look, if RNGesus hates you? Those starter claws low-key carry hard. Ritual Rite buffs make them shred through mid-game, and that Faith scaling? Chef's kiss 👌 Just remember to stack FP passives via talismans or other gear. My current build uses Halo Scythe main + FP-on-hit dagger off-hand – pure dopamine! ✨
