    Not sure if this is the right section, but I wanted some opinions on a build that I've been looking at making...

    I've been wanting to make and Intelligence/Magic Build... but I also want to use Wrath of Gods with Tranquil Walk of Peace.
    (Does WoG get stronger with Faith?)

    This is what I'm looking at right now:

    Vit-31
    Att-28 (6 slots)
    End-31
    Str-31
    Dex-10
    Inte-50
    Faith-40

    I'd be around level 150.

    Now, I want my Magic and my WoG to be strong, but I also want to be able to take a few hits, so are there any recommendations? Or is this decent?

    Assuming you want to stay at that soul level, here is this

    Much more optimized for what you want, but with less attunement slots.

    Now you could also lower the level to the more standard PvP level which is 120. But sadly I cannot know what type of weapon you want to use aside from strength weapons unless you specify, so here is this

    Well, for my magic build, I'd have a Moonlight Greatsword and Velcka's Talisman in my right, and then I'd have the Moonlight Butterfly Shield, and Logan's Talisman in the right.

    How powerful is Wrath of the Gods at 40 Faith?

    I might just make a separate faith Build.

    If you want a Sorcery/Faith build I would Highly recommend going High Int 28 faith, this is because the difference in Magic Adjust in a darkmoon talisman at 40 faith and Velka's at 50 Int is almost nothing, so you can make use of the Int scaling Talisman to cast miracles with a requirment up to 28 (importantly Wrath of the Gods, the defensive buffs great magic barrier and replenishment, Tranquil walk of Peace) Basically any of the good PvP miracles except for the buffs, which you could simply use CMW

    Faith Mage builds are somewhat of a thing for me, I am quite fond of them and think they're some of the most powerful builds around. Assuming you want to stick to 150 you can get a really absurd build going. plenty of spells health and armor, a good choice of weapons between the MLGS, MLBH, and Velka's and of course a huge selection of spells that deal damage or protect you.

    Ok. One quick question.

    The Velka's Talisman scales with Intel, right?

    Now, logically speaking, if my faith was, say, 50, my wrath of the gods would be OP as ***, right?

    Well, lets say my Faith is 28 (Enough for WoG), and my Intel is 50, would my WoG be as powerful as a 50-Faith?

    Someone please help me here sad

    I want to keep my faith at 28, but I want to have a strong WoG.

    So, if I have a 45 intel, and use Velka's Talisman, would WoG be stronger?

    As I said in my earlier post. The Magic Adjust difference between Velka's and the Darkmoon talisman if you have 50int and 50 faith is very marginal. Meaning WoGs damage wont be very different at all.

    It works better having high Int and minimum faith because the Faith scaling catalyst doesn't have the Oomph that TCC does AND generally there are more spells to be gained at higher INT values (44 for CSS) while the higher requirement faith spells aren't what you use in PvP (Soothing sunlight, Sunlight spear)

    Trust in me if you want to Cast both sorcery and miracles well, go 28 faith and 44-50Int
