Dragon Build Details

Faith & Arcane Uses Incantation

dragon communion seal

This build focuses more in Arcane and uses Dragon Communion Seal that has S scaling and a passive effect that boosts Dragon Communion incantations. The playstyle involves fighting by inflicting status effects and casting incantations.

^ Preferential | Optional | Unnecessary

The recommended class for this build is Bandit. Although Prophet is good, Bandit's initial stats can optimize Reduvia in the early game which is an advantage. In addition, with the use of Radagon's Soreseal, you can equip Rivers of Blood even with initial stats in Strength & Dexterity and use it as main weapon in the late game.

Arcane & Faith Stats

The Dragon Communion Seal has Faith B and Arcane S scaling. As a guide, raise Faith for about 60%-80% of Arcane. If the points allocated to Faith is relatively higher compared to Arcane, the incant scaling decreases.
