Vigor, also written as VIG, has the most influence on HP. The more Vigor the build has the better their health pool is and they can take more damage. It also provides resistance to Fire and Immunity. Anyone who has a Vigor Stat has a better resistance towards Scarlet Rot and Poison effects too.

It improves the robustness of a player and even influences the Equip Load Stat. Equip Load will improve your evasive rolls. It provides resistance to Hemorrhage and Frostbite.

Talismans

In Elden Ring, talismans are the building blocks for an effective build. Here are some of the best talismans in Elden Ring that I recommend for the Bolt of Gransax build in the game.

Shard of Alexander

The Shard of Alexander talisman is made up of Scraps of stewed flesh, tatters of ornaments, and lots of slimes that cling to the shard. The Shard of Alexander belongs to the late Alexander who was a shattered warrior jar. It has a 0.9 weight and it greatly boosts the attacking power of different skills. It increases the damage by 15%. The Shard of Alexander is available from Iron Fist Alexander Drops once the player completes his quest line.

Godfrey’s Icon

Godfrey’s Icon is one of the most legendary talismans and it has the face of the Elden Lord Godfrey who was a ferocious warrior in the Elden Ring. It affects many sorceries, spells, and skills improving the charge attack power. It increases the damage by 15% but it does not affect any bow attacks.

It affects many Ashes of War including Carian Grandeur, Charge Forth, and many more. Godfrey’s Icon can be found in the drops of Godefroy the Grafted. Godefroy the Grafted can be found at the Golden Lineage Evergaol.

Radagon’s Scarseal

This talisman is known as the seal of King Consort Radagon. It is made up of an engraved eye and an Elden Rune. This talisman shows the lifelong duty of the gods chosen.
