Arcane is one of many Attribute scaling stats determining your character’s strengths and weaknesses in-game. It also influences your combat capabilities and the armor and weapons equipped and wielded, mainly when engaged in combat.<\/p>\n

While it doesn’t have significance compared to other Attributes like Strength, Dexterity, and Intelligence, many weapons, Incantations, and a few Sorceries available require some Arcane to wield or cast. Keeping this in mind, this guide explains what Arcane is, how it affects your character, and everything else you’ll need to know to survive The Lands Between in Elden Ring<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What Does The Arcane Stat Do In Elden Ring?<\/h2>\n

The Arcane stat primarily influences the Holy Defensive stat, meaning how well your character defends itself from Holy Damage Negation. Additionally, having a high Arcane stat allows you to find items more quickly, especially if enemies and bosses should drop them.<\/p>\n

It also influences the efficacy of various Sorceries and Incantations<\/a> by improving their power, damage output, and resistance to different status effects, which will be Death Blight. To increase your Arcane stats, you’ll need to spend Runes<\/a> to add points to this specific Attribute which also can enhance its secondary stats like Holy Defensive stat and Vitality.<\/p>\n

Increasing your Arcane stat increases the ability to discover new items more frequently by one point for every Arcane level reached. Improving your Holy Damage Negation varies between Arcane levels as you can gain +2 between Arcane levels 1 to 20 and +0.25 between Arcane levels 61 to 99.<\/p>\n

The same can be applied to when Arcane improves your Vitality, which increases the chances of resisting Death Blight or Death Blight build-up. This, too, sees you gaining +1\/+0.6\/0.5\/0.25 Vitality which depends on your Arcane level according to Fextralife<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Multiple weapons scale with Arcane<\/a>, which has varying passive effects such as inflicting Hemorrhage (or Blood Loss), Madness, Poison, and Sleep build-up. Additionally, you can apply Arcane scaling on weapons without Affinities bound to them by using the Black Whetblade to add the Blood, Occult, or Poison enhancements.<\/p>\n

Below, we’ve listed all weapons currently available that scale primarily with the Arcane stat in Elden Ring:<\/p>\n
