You are probably the most helpful individual I have ever encountered in this genre. NO ONE I know who plays these games ever explains to me how scaling works in these games! Thank you so much for this video!
Blood codes are like a vessel to be filled. If you want to make an overpowered personal build , first choose your skills and weapon, then find the blood code that can bring the most out of them. That ensures you will be enjoying playing this way. Finally choose your veil that gains the most without slowing you down, unless you rely much on drain attacks or certain gifts. Some blood codes may only have 1-6 unique gifts to offer, but they can bring the perfect balance to a certain build. Every blood code can shine in many different ways if you take your time learning the game. :)
important note. blood codes have 0-1 actual unique gifts that can only be used while on that code. You could use a blood code for it's superior base stats like assassin with it's baseline quick movespeed and great DEX, or you could learn all assssins gifts and equip them on darkseeker, who has the unque passive to return ichor from dealing poison damage.
Actually, you can see the scaling on weapons via transformation. (I.e. heimdall chrome) only after you are about to transform it when you are prompted with one final "you want to transform weapon a to weapon a intensification"
This was extremely helpful. My original set up was good and working just fine, but now it's even better. I'm using the Queenslayer Code with Enduring Crimson and the Assassin's Sickle (i think that's what it's called). I'm really enjoying the rather large improvement. Thank you!
Thank you for your Code Vein videos. They've allowed me to better understand the game's mechanics and reconsider my stance on certain Blood Codes and Gifts I found straight up useless before. Thanks to these videos, I've come up with an excellent build for exploring/haze farming: Blood Code: *Eos* Weapon: *Queenslayer Bayonet Devour +10* (but I think I'm going to try with Libertador instead since it apparently has better base stats) Blood Veil: *Ivory Grace* Passives: *- Swift Destruction (Hephaestus)* *- Bayonet Mastery (Artemis)* *- Revenant's Hunger (Mercury)* *- Increased Gift Speed (Artemis)* Lower Actives: *- Overdrive (Assassin)* / *Ranged Impact (Hunter)* *- Adrenaline (Fighter)* *- Bridge To Glory (Eos)* (Last one is up to you. I like to switch between *Gift Prowess (Harmonia)* and *Restorative Offering* (for when I have a companion).) Upper Actives: *- Shadow Assault (Assassin)* *- Blood Sacrifice (Hunter)* *- Fusillade Rondo (Artemis)* (Last one is up to you. I like to use *Bloody Impact (Hermes)* to push enemies off ledges.) Enjoy your farming. * uses Mistle Root and disperses *
Another note, it seems like weapon buffs (attack damage, venom, elements, etc.) do not scale in their effects. Ice weapon, for example, scales with Light (mind) and only ever adds 50 damage. What does change is the amount of time the buff is active for. D Mind makes the buff useful for a fight, B makes it last through a boss, and S basically turns it into a "set it and forget it" buff. S Willpower coupled with Blood Fest results in infinite Ichor provided you casually slap an enemy once in awhile.
i dont get. does the weapon need high light (mind) or the blood code does? to me all the times are the same and have to activate them every time once again
Your weapon defense DOES combine with your blood veil defense when guarding. Block while holding a weapon you don't meet the requirement for to find out easily Also, the reason you found a blood code that increased resistances with less stats is because you didn't pay attention to Willpower's increase to elemental resistances
So, if I am correct - the blood veil is for the looks only - so, might've well go for the one you like best unless there's something that helps you out
@@nekotranslates the blood veil effects your defense (when not blocking) and your drain attack, parry, and back stab damage. Did you even watch the video?
Naughty Neko Plays Also, if you are using a build that requires you to be mindful of mobility, (if you want that sweet dash instead of the gimpy roll) weight of blood veil matters a lot. For example, when using queenslayer, if using a one handed sword build, then your only option for quick roll that I'm aware of is noble silver. You get more options for quick roll if you use a bayonet, but that's kind of a given.
@@syukrir.robert8994 I wasn't counting different variations that didn't offer a stat increase. I was talking about stats, not aesthetic. Personally I run noble darkness, as I like the darker color, but I was going more for the utility of it over the looks.
The Queenslayer blood code has an exclusive active skill called "Final Journey", which increases your stats massively, but you'll die when it runs out (which is around 2-4min, and you don't die if you kill a boss or rest at a mistle). Weapon stats go from (ex.) 2700 to 4300 by activating Final Journey, which makes it the best possible stat increase in the game. Which again makes it the only blood code worth taking if you want to go for max damage, so trying to match stat scaling of blood code and weapon will not yield the best result possible.
THANK YOU! Holy shit this was absolutely driving me crazy! I'm lvl 87 and wondering why my defense is absolute butt and hole! Thanks for the guide I needed that
Now, I'm not a particularly big Soulsborne fan/player... but I *LOVE* RPGs and God Eater... plus the game itself doesn't suck. That said. I *LOVE* your vids. They are *INCREDIBLY* helpful!
Summarizing it here to make sure I don't miss anything - Damage: Weapon damage: Match Weapon Scaling to Blood Code Scaling for the most damage Equipping certain passive Gifts increases Blood Code Scaling Gift damage: Higher Mind = More Light gift damage Higher Willpower = more Dark gift damage - Defense: To calculate incoming damage when hit: Uses Weapon stats when blocking Uses Blood veil stats when not blocking Vitality and Fortitude are barely worth mentioning
Thanks for the info! I'm loving the game as much as you. I feel like the multiplayer match-making needs work though. Unless its just the times i'm playing cause its hard to match up since its pretty random vs DS having at least summon signs on the ground
Thank you, this cleared up a tonne for me. I was extremely confused by the scaling on BVs, good to know those values apply strictly to drain and parry and not your defense. I'm still very early into the game but one thing that really confuses me is one of the upgrade options for gear (transformation rather) apparently removes scaling from the items to boost Gifts? When would you ever want to do that, especially for a weapon?
Can you do a video on back stabs and parrying? I can never seem to back stab when I want to, I do it randomly, and I dont think I've been able to get a single parry. Also, if you've got some good farming spots for materials, that would be an awesome video too. Thanks for all the hard work, I've been watching since your Diviniry 2 builds. Big fan, thanks!
Each blood veil has a different parry window so you got to practice with it to get the timing. Enemies have different timings so you need to adapt to that as well, for back stabs it is a bit wonky but generally from my experience the backstab window isn't directly behind an enemy but more so a little off to the left or right of them
The best advice for backstabbing is to use a fast weapon. It seems to register much easier and if you fail, you don't have to wait a zweihander swing to try again. fastest one I've found is the Ice rapier from a certain dual boss. The other person already said that enemies don't actually sway from side to side during animations despite the looks, so easiest way is to hit when they resturn to neutral pose. The shield guys are the most easiest ones to practice backstabbing. They don't usually don't even attack you, giving you ample time to spin or dash behind them. They also don't have active side to side animations while blocking so they are consistent. Finally, their backstab spot is around right buttcheek, so start from their weapon side.
I been mostly looking for how support gifts are affected by different blood veils. I went through the game only using support gifts and a hammer as i wanted to make a berserker style char able to withstand blows constantly while guarding and dish out damage and stun with the swing of my hammer. But i couldnt see much difference in veils with things that increase those abilities.
The people who make games should sponsor sites like Fextralife because there's nothing worse than been stuck on a game and there's no wiki. Or there's a wiki but it has almost no info on it. Code Vein wiki still has gaps and broken links, but it's getting there :) BTW - I've been trying to add comments to the wiki but I get an error "Cannot post" or something. I can edit the pages though.
Building the wikis takes a lot of time, all help is welcome! For the comment not posting, could you join our discord and DM the fextralife account so we can troubleshoot it? discord.gg/fextralife :)
"You'll do more damage depending on how closely you match the scaling of your weapon to the scaling of your Blood Code." is a misleading (arguably incorrect) statement. A Blood Code that has S scaling in strength will do more damage on a B scaling strength weapon than a Blood Code with B scaling in strength paired with the same weapon. Blood Code "scaling" is applied directly to your base stats. It's a multiplier. This multiplied stat is then used as a base to give bonuses to your weapon and veil (just like a Souls game)
SpadeDraco he doesnt mean a B scaling weapon will do more dmg with a B scaling bc rather then a S scaling bc, he meant if you use a S strength bc it is best to use a S strength weapon
He said it wrong but he meant that you should fight in the way supported by the scaling of your blood code, don't use prometheus with a mage build for example.
Getting hit by that guy in the beginning of the video is undeniable fate. After going through the fast-jabbing enemies in the previous area, meeting a new enemy with a longer windup really throws you off.
finally someone who got it right. great video. Maybe mentioning what each stat does would be good. not the theme of the video but it helps to know when you make a build. i don't think many people know tha fortitude increases stamina or that dexterity increases drain rating f.e.
If you're still confused: *Blood Code* = Your personality/physique. Your base class/playstyle. Sets your stats and 'max' weight limit. *Blood Veil* = _Scales off Blood Code._ Your armor, affects Weight. Has a built-in special weapon aka the drain attacks. Determines most spell/gift damage (lightning/venom/etc. buffs don't seem to be affected.) *Weapon* = _Scales off Blood Code._ Only affects Weight. No affect on Gift or Drain damage. Armor + The 1 Weapon you have out = Your weight. Low weight means Quick pretty blue dodges, the trade-off being you'd have to use a weaker weapon like a bayonet and a light Blood Veil with bad defense.
I have been no lifeing this game since it came out, I can reach damage cap easily. This is a good guide to help new players so they can understand this game better.
I've been playing this game fairly well not had to much trouble with playing and getting along but the hellfire knight dlc jesus i wanted to increase damage and now knowing that having your code stats be close to the weapon scaling is better than having it better as well as worst
Thank you for the video. I have been trying to figure out Blood Veil scaling, and the best one to use for my 2handed strength build. I am using Atlas and have an S+ strength currently. Before I was thinking Blood veils affect strength and weapon damage. It seems I should pick a blood veil which increases the damage output of my attack skills. Any recommendations?
Honestly, I was hoping for a bit more details from under the hood... All in all, the system works as such: Your level and your Blood Code scaling combined translate to a value. What Value? That's something I'd love to know as well. Then, your weapon and blood veil use that resulting value through their own scaling to determine their own scaling numbers. What I was hoping for is some actual details how much your level translated into mystery value through scaling would be and how much each scaling represents. Also, your scaling does go above S+, even if it isn't displayed. Tested it by equipping Atlas with 3 strength passives, 2 making is S+ and a third, while leaving it at S+, still increasing my damage.
New player, picked this up on Gamepass. This guide was quite helpful--it's bizarre to have a game call something "scaling" and then not show you the numerical stats that are being scaled. One small quibble with the video, though--technically, on the blood codes, those letter values are really your stats, so it's not accurate to call that "scaling," correct? Unless I'm still misunderstanding (which is very possible lol.)
I have one question that I didn't really get an answer for. To have my Vitality scale, can I just use the vitality gift passives for it to scale? Cuz I need it for the Cleansing light one. I'm using Heimdall. Please help! Sorry if you said it in the video, I just can;t find it.
Questions about transforming blood veils. If you transform a blood veil into devour will your drain go higher as well? And what happens of you transform it into other things like gift? Can you explain transforming
There's nothing to cap. You don't manually distribute stat points. When you level up you just get generally stronger but you have no manual control. Builds in this game aren't about stat distribution. They're about blood codes, blood veils, weapons and gifts.
will there be a video on transforming weapons and veils? most of the elements are confusing to know what they do since the game doesn't give information, unfortunately
All I know for sure is that my build would have the Fortification buff if I am gonna transform my weapon - but the DPS increase isn't that much tbh. But, if you're a ranger or a different build, maybe something like shock or poison when you transform will help?
thank you again as your really helping shed light in this insanely complex game that offers so little info...anywhere just for clarity are you saying even if you don't meet the reqs for a veil you can still use it? like it doesn't make enough difference?
Ah, this makes a lot of sense, I've been using the Venous Claw thinking that the stat scaling would help my melee weapons damage but now I can at least switch to a better defensive one instead.
What exactly does Drain Rating do? I'd assume it changes how much Ichor you get from draining enemies but due to it being a 0.xx type of value I don't quite get how it would work since I get 2 ichor with a Drain Rating of .62, but I get the same with a Drain Rating of .83
I dont know for sure but i guess the Drain Rating is how much Ichor you restore per normal attack hit (thats what the white bar bellow the ichor counter is for since we don't always get a full one per hit) but i have no idea how its multiplied for the different drain attacks. The max ichor increase from charge/quick draining dosen't seam affected by stat.
@@Roguhr The .62 and .83 were from my Blood Veils. Do they get combined with the .47 from my weapon to have 1.09 total with my .62 Veil which then means I get 1 ichor per weapon attack?
@@lagideath If it works similarly to how scaling is explained in the video, then your Blood Veil drain doesn't affect your weapons blood drain. The Veil drain effects how much Ichor you get, when using a Veil attack. (It seems your max will increase by 2 every time, but the amount of usable Ichor you regain is probably variable.) Basically, your weapon's drain score is what you will get with a weapon hit, and your veil drain score is what you will get with a backstab/drain attack. (Not 100% sure on this, but that's what I'm guessing.)
Your blood code don't really represent your stats, it's just a scaling system, a 'Multiplier' in short. Your stats are based on your blood veil and weapons, than Blood codes do the job of enhancing/weakening your stats by multiplying a factor. Whilst there might be players suggesting to enhance a particular stat in your build, that is not always beneficial because all the scales do multiply a specific factor, over building one would increase a particular stat to a certain magnitude, meanwhile weakened by other stats if you don't compensate it. For example. most melee players might focus a lot on strength, but disregarded the stats on Light gifts, this ends up increasing the maximal damage of the physical damage to a maximum point but weaken by the buffs. On the other hand, for someone who have even spread of stats with focus on strength and mind would truly bring out a weapons' damage without hindrance
How about a video on which of the starting blood codes to use, and get them to the end of the game without changing to a different code at all? Cuz that is how I am playing - using the starting Fighter blood code, and already just done the Cathedral. Maybe a step-by-step guide for each area - as you need to farm for a while to unlock new skills to use.
you will feel extremely limited that way. if you never use other codes, the only way to acquire new abilities and passives is to use awakens to max out proficiency of other codes gifts, instead of grinding them with the code and ability equipped. Fighter also has less base stats and can't use any of the other codes unique gifts that can't be learned for all codes.
@@yargolocus4853 Yeah - it is limited, but I beaten the game with Fighter Blood Code. Just use Yakumo to do the dirty work (but then again Mido, Skull King and whatever the last boss is - took forever, and thank for the power of editing I don't show every single failure attempt - still cheated it in the end for progression purposes)
Personally i think the most confusing thing so far is the deciding if you get slow/normal/quick movement/dodges with each weapon since it seams tied to blood codes and both item and total weights but its not really explained or even mentioned by the game. And a bit how white gifts scale since most of them are buffs but you don't see any numbers for them, or if they're set and its only the few offensive white gifts that scale off Mind.
@@templeknights ah, i didn't mean pickups, i mean equipped items, changing blood veils can change which movement you have with the different weapons. most rifles are usually quick but a couple of the 1 handed swords are borderline so they jump back and forth between normal or quick depending on code and veil (guessing its the same for some heavier weapons on the border of normal/slow). and that is the weird part since look at swords weigh, equip it as weapon 1, look at stats screen and the weight number is different and there is no indication for what weight classes goes into quick/normal/slow more than test equipping everything and see.
@@Shaderox yeah tthat is true and the game doesn't do a good job detailing those stats either sadly. It just figuring this stuff out through trial and error. I misunderstood your post lol from the way you wrote it lol.
has anyone found out how the transformation stuff works when it changes ur scaling stats yet the wiki is dry as hell so there's little to nothing on it about any of it.
Wait, to put it simply. There is no negative scaling which lower high base letter and having E in weapon still increases the base dmg/resistance but slightly? Let's say Rank A in code is 100 dmg and in scaling A is equivalent to 2.00 multiplier. My code gives A 100 dmg but weapon scaling is C. So I still benefit from weak scaling 100 dmg * 1.60 and no letter is 1,00 scaling which won't increase anything.
Best transformation upgrade for a long sword build, greatsword build, and mage build? So far i have been playing greatsword with atlas blood code and atlas transformation, but recently got heimdalls, i guess i am on that part of the game that i should start thinking for an endgame build now, so yeah help on transformation of every kind plz?
Wait,what? I’m sure if I listen a few times I’ll understand. It’s good to have a concussion, you don’t get confused at all and a game people are saying is too easy,grumble grumble, seems decently challenging. I can’t make an OP character because I just get confused. Head trauma is weird but this game is great.
im so confused so if your scaling is idk 400 does that mean from stat e you do 400 damage but if your stat is now d you do an extra 400 damage so all together its 800?. and is there a way to max out all your stats on a character so that they are all s. please help
they absolutely do not tell you how they scale. those stats you're looking at in the gift description are what's required to slot the gift and have nothing to do with scaling.
This feels... confusing. The guide says multiple times that Blood codes scale and scale with Veils and weapons. I feel like the guide should be simpler. Blood code gives you base stats, weapons take those stats and add scaling damage to raw based on those stats. Blood veils do the same but with defense, status resist and gift bonus. Veils and weapons do not interact in any way directly
@@moriadine2517 They don't affect the Gift stats though. I've tried swapping through them and they don't affect "spell damage" either. It's the MND/WIL from your Blood Veil that affect your Gift stats.
I'm curious as to what you feel like would be a good place to stop leveling your character, I felt like level 50 would have been a good place to stop, as it did carry me through to the very last boss of the game as a mage, even though I know of a few people who felt like they absolutly needed to level up to 120, and went to that point and beyond in ng, even though this is a completely different game, it's not Dark Souls, but I still feel like the level cap should be at least around 50-65, but not 120. Not this time.
I will say though, if you do the enhanced difficulty ng+, then by all means level up to 120, because the enhanced health and damage they get will one shot players very easily. But I'm mostly referring to new game for NG level cap.
I stopped at level 100, which I thought was low, but knowing what I know now, probably 80. However, as Crescent Wolf mentioned, in NG+ Enhanced you will get pwned with that level. I'm playing NG+ Enhanced at level 100 and just about everything 1 shots you.
@@Fextralife That sounds about right now that I think about it, especially for dealing with the final boss. I was getting pwned repeatedly on that one, still did great with my lvl 50 on the bosses before it though.
Which specific stat in your weapon increases Weapon Gifts? Like Fusillade Rondo? I want to know so I know which Upgrade Modification to give to my Bayonet
light is mind, dark is willpower and skill is the attack of the weapon you are using. Bayonets are a bit tricky though, since they use gift triggers. Gift triggers are ichor using powers that come with the weapon, such as explosion of fire on a fire mace, or a blood projectile of a bayonet shot. Weapons with gift triggers have str/dex scalings for their physical attack, and mind/willpower for their triggers that cost ichor. Check your bayonet, and see if it has better mind or willpower scaling. That is the stat that determines bayonets shot damage, and Fussilade rondos too. You can further incrase weapon gifts damage with other active or passive buffs, such as bayonet mastery or flame buff. Experiment which ones work with bayonets. I like the STR requiring single hit buffers because they amp the whole bayonet shot.
Wait hold up... the Blood Veil has nothing to do with Blood Code and Weapon? ... so you could treat it as just fashion? I had no idea... i hardly/never use drain attacks or magic on my build... i pretty much built my character to play like Yakumo...
So what do Bayonet shots scale with? I was told Gift Power, but noticed no change between Veils. Is it weapon scaling, or is it maybe straight off your stats?
Its based off your Codes Mind or Willpower stat. I did some testing and that's what the Bayonets fire scales off of and it isn't affected by your Veils scaling. Some buffs and passives affect its damage as well.
every weapon has str/dex scaling for their physical attacks. If a weapon has listed scalings for mind and willpower, that means the weapon has a gift trigger (on a heavy attack) that costs ichor and scales from those. This is every bayonet and some others. Check if it has better mind or willpower and stack that. Bayonets also work with most weapon buffs.
The Blood Veils will only make your Light Gift buffs more powerful or less powerful which can effect your total damage done with your weapon if you use those buffs. But they do not effect your weapon's damage at all directly.
What's happening there is your Blood Veil has better Light Gift scaling, increasing the effectiveness of your Light Gifts that buff damage. It's not directly buffing your Weapon Damage itself.
so scaling is a lil diff on here cause on most souls games scaling means it will get stronger when at a higher level this is good info but all u gota do is look for the strongest a weapon gets by switching classes easy to just follow that cause he said so much it's easy to get confused so just follow wha I said
If your weight is 50% or below of your codes max, you will be 1 speed stage higher then default, if you are between 50-100% of your weight you will be the listed speed, if your over the speed cap you drop down a speed. It takes your veil+wielded weapon into account.
Speaking of things that we hope are getting patched in the future, code vein has to work on its stat requiremens in my strong opinion. i find it ridiculous how while wearing the harmonia blood code + the strength/willpower passive buff i am unable to wield Enduring Crimson (Loui's weapon,a one handed sword) but i am able to wield the zweihander, sunset greatsword, Impulse anchor, Sunset Hammer and Nagimukuro (all of these are two handed curved greatsword, ultra greatsword or great hammers) I hope they fix this in a future patch. Also, why does a two part passive buff increase the same amount than a single passive buff? strength/willpower increases my strength to D+ but Strength only passive buff also increases strength to D+. You'd think since it's a buff ONLY for strength and nothing else it would have a larger effect... :/
single stat boosts are weaker, but you can equip them with others. Of course you would always want to use double stats if you can, but if you wanted for example S+ Dex, you have to use 3 dex boosters on an A base dex. For me that includes a single dex booster. The single boosters are also acquired ealry on, which fits for the unbalance between early and late blood codes.
Im using queen slayer code with a silver garb transformed with prometheus ore so can fast roll with my fire weeb sword and ice rapier and then uses magic when i need to like elemental buffs and some elemental barages.
Yes, a higher scaling on the sword means that the damage increase from the scaling of that blood code will be increased more than if the sword's scaling was lower
after you finish the story, you can keep your advancements and restart the story. Yakumo and others have reset as well, allowing you to trade for more gems and unique weapon duplicates.
Hey Everyone, quick question. Been looking around to see which Hounds Blood vein would be good for a magic class or hybrid class with magic as a second component. I know claw or ivy type is normally better but I love the hounds so I was hoping there was one that would work perfectly or at least be decent. Thanks for any advice P.S sorry if I got any terms wrong. Still new lol **Nevermind dude, just saw your fire and ice build, that's exactly what I was looking for! Awesome

soulsborn? Those games are just 3D Castlevania and the genre is action adventure not soulsborn.
So . . . basically crit damage?
More simplified, your blood code is your actual stats, the gear shows how well it scales off of those stats
You are probably the most helpful individual I have ever encountered in this genre. NO ONE I know who plays these games ever explains to me how scaling works in these games! Thank you so much for this video!
instructions unclear fought hades with pipe
Try to fight Hades with a fire infusion and several fire buffs and you will see, that the pipe did more dmg
Everybody knows scaling only works by how emotionally affected you are throughout the vestige memories. Everything else are to be disregarded
The thing is he aint jokin
the worst enemy in this game are the feels
Same I loved Louis story and everything I'm at final boss still using his
I felt nothing now my lack of damage makes perfect sense
Dam my emotionless butt hole !
I skipped the cutscenes. It’s as bad as tlou 2
I'm only a few hours in the game and I'm already confused with the scaling system. Thanks you for this explanation.
I subscribed to your channel because of Code Vein, glad I did. Appreciate the daily updates
Blood codes are like a vessel to be filled. If you want to make an overpowered personal build , first choose your skills and weapon, then find the blood code that can bring the most out of them. That ensures you will be enjoying playing this way. Finally choose your veil that gains the most without slowing you down, unless you rely much on drain attacks or certain gifts. Some blood codes may only have 1-6 unique gifts to offer, but they can bring the perfect balance to a certain build. Every blood code can shine in many different ways if you take your time learning the game. :)
important note. blood codes have 0-1 actual unique gifts that can only be used while on that code. You could use a blood code for it's superior base stats like assassin with it's baseline quick movespeed and great DEX, or you could learn all assssins gifts and equip them on darkseeker, who has the unque passive to return ichor from dealing poison damage.
Thank you once again Cas, this makes so much more sense
Actually, you can see the scaling on weapons via transformation. (I.e. heimdall chrome) only after you are about to transform it when you are prompted with one final "you want to transform weapon a to weapon a intensification"
This was extremely helpful. My original set up was good and working just fine, but now it's even better. I'm using the Queenslayer Code with Enduring Crimson and the Assassin's Sickle (i think that's what it's called). I'm really enjoying the rather large improvement. Thank you!
Thank you for your Code Vein videos. They've allowed me to better understand the game's mechanics and reconsider my stance on certain Blood Codes and Gifts I found straight up useless before. Thanks to these videos, I've come up with an excellent build for exploring/haze farming:
Blood Code: *Eos*
Weapon: *Queenslayer Bayonet Devour +10* (but I think I'm going to try with Libertador instead since it apparently has better base stats)
Blood Veil: *Ivory Grace*
Passives:
*- Swift Destruction (Hephaestus)*
*- Bayonet Mastery (Artemis)*
*- Revenant's Hunger (Mercury)*
*- Increased Gift Speed (Artemis)*
Lower Actives:
*- Overdrive (Assassin)* / *Ranged Impact (Hunter)*
*- Adrenaline (Fighter)*
*- Bridge To Glory (Eos)*
(Last one is up to you. I like to switch between *Gift Prowess (Harmonia)* and *Restorative Offering* (for when I have a companion).)
Upper Actives:
*- Shadow Assault (Assassin)*
*- Blood Sacrifice (Hunter)*
*- Fusillade Rondo (Artemis)*
(Last one is up to you. I like to use *Bloody Impact (Hermes)* to push enemies off ledges.)
Enjoy your farming. * uses Mistle Root and disperses *
This helped me immensely as the tutorial was really vague when it came to stats as a whole
Thanks for this. Clarified a lot of info I wasn't sure about
U and fighting cowboy bolth making great guides. And ur written walkthrough helping me stay on track lmao.
Another note, it seems like weapon buffs (attack damage, venom, elements, etc.) do not scale in their effects. Ice weapon, for example, scales with Light (mind) and only ever adds 50 damage. What does change is the amount of time the buff is active for. D Mind makes the buff useful for a fight, B makes it last through a boss, and S basically turns it into a "set it and forget it" buff. S Willpower coupled with Blood Fest results in infinite Ichor provided you casually slap an enemy once in awhile.
i dont get. does the weapon need high light (mind) or the blood code does? to me all the times are the same and have to activate them every time once again
Your weapon defense DOES combine with your blood veil defense when guarding. Block while holding a weapon you don't meet the requirement for to find out easily
Also, the reason you found a blood code that increased resistances with less stats is because you didn't pay attention to Willpower's increase to elemental resistances
This explains why changing my blood veil did nothing for my weapon damage.
That was the single most confusing aspect of all this
So, if I am correct - the blood veil is for the looks only - so, might've well go for the one you like best unless there's something that helps you out
@@nekotranslates the blood veil effects your defense (when not blocking) and your drain attack, parry, and back stab damage. Did you even watch the video?
Naughty Neko Plays Also, if you are using a build that requires you to be mindful of mobility, (if you want that sweet dash instead of the gimpy roll) weight of blood veil matters a lot. For example, when using queenslayer, if using a one handed sword build, then your only option for quick roll that I'm aware of is noble silver. You get more options for quick roll if you use a bayonet, but that's kind of a given.
Zangetsu nobel shadow works too, just different colour
@@syukrir.robert8994 I wasn't counting different variations that didn't offer a stat increase. I was talking about stats, not aesthetic. Personally I run noble darkness, as I like the darker color, but I was going more for the utility of it over the looks.
The Queenslayer blood code has an exclusive active skill called "Final Journey", which increases your stats massively, but you'll die when it runs out (which is around 2-4min, and you don't die if you kill a boss or rest at a mistle). Weapon stats go from (ex.) 2700 to 4300 by activating Final Journey, which makes it the best possible stat increase in the game. Which again makes it the only blood code worth taking if you want to go for max damage, so trying to match stat scaling of blood code and weapon will not yield the best result possible.
Not entirely, I hit 4900 with 3 damage buffs

THANK YOU! Holy shit this was absolutely driving me crazy! I'm lvl 87 and wondering why my defense is absolute butt and hole! Thanks for the guide I needed that
Now, I'm not a particularly big Soulsborne fan/player... but I *LOVE* RPGs and God Eater... plus the game itself doesn't suck.
That said.
I *LOVE* your vids. They are *INCREDIBLY* helpful!
Summarizing it here to make sure I don't miss anything
- Damage:
Weapon damage:
Match Weapon Scaling to Blood Code Scaling for the most damage
Equipping certain passive Gifts increases Blood Code Scaling
Gift damage:
Higher Mind = More Light gift damage
Higher Willpower = more Dark gift damage
- Defense:
To calculate incoming damage when hit:
Uses Weapon stats when blocking
Uses Blood veil stats when not blocking
Vitality and Fortitude are barely worth mentioning
Glad that you are making so many videos on this game, i really enjoy it, glad i bought it after i saw your fine review.
I know what I have to do, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it... because of fashion.
Thanks for the info! I'm loving the game as much as you. I feel like the multiplayer match-making needs work though. Unless its just the times i'm playing cause its hard to match up since its pretty random vs DS having at least summon signs on the ground
THANK YOU! this guide, though taking a bit fast, was SOOOO helpful!!!!
Thank you for all the knowledge
Thank you, this cleared up a tonne for me. I was extremely confused by the scaling on BVs, good to know those values apply strictly
to drain and parry and not your defense.
I'm still very early into the game but one thing that really confuses me is one of the upgrade options for gear (transformation rather) apparently removes scaling from the items to boost Gifts?
When would you ever want to do that, especially for a weapon?
This video was immensely helpful. I haven't played any games in the genre before this one so I had no idea what was going on. I now have a vague idea.
Can you do a video on back stabs and parrying? I can never seem to back stab when I want to, I do it randomly, and I dont think I've been able to get a single parry. Also, if you've got some good farming spots for materials, that would be an awesome video too. Thanks for all the hard work, I've been watching since your Diviniry 2 builds. Big fan, thanks!
Each blood veil has a different parry window so you got to practice with it to get the timing. Enemies have different timings so you need to adapt to that as well, for back stabs it is a bit wonky but generally from my experience the backstab window isn't directly behind an enemy but more so a little off to the left or right of them
The best advice for backstabbing is to use a fast weapon. It seems to register much easier and if you fail, you don't have to wait a zweihander swing to try again. fastest one I've found is the Ice rapier from a certain dual boss. The other person already said that enemies don't actually sway from side to side during animations despite the looks, so easiest way is to hit when they resturn to neutral pose. The shield guys are the most easiest ones to practice backstabbing. They don't usually don't even attack you, giving you ample time to spin or dash behind them. They also don't have active side to side animations while blocking so they are consistent. Finally, their backstab spot is around right buttcheek, so start from their weapon side.
I been mostly looking for how support gifts are affected by different blood veils. I went through the game only using support gifts and a hammer as i wanted to make a berserker style char able to withstand blows constantly while guarding and dish out damage and stun with the swing of my hammer. But i couldnt see much difference in veils with things that increase those abilities.
Thanks very much. This helps a lot.
The people who make games should sponsor sites like Fextralife because there's nothing worse than been stuck on a game and there's no wiki. Or there's a wiki but it has almost no info on it. Code Vein wiki still has gaps and broken links, but it's getting there :)
BTW - I've been trying to add comments to the wiki but I get an error "Cannot post" or something. I can edit the pages though.
Building the wikis takes a lot of time, all help is welcome! For the comment not posting, could you join our discord and DM the fextralife account so we can troubleshoot it? discord.gg/fextralife :)
"You'll do more damage depending on how closely you match the scaling of your weapon to the scaling of your Blood Code." is a misleading (arguably incorrect) statement.
A Blood Code that has S scaling in strength will do more damage on a B scaling strength weapon than a Blood Code with B scaling in strength paired with the same weapon.
Blood Code "scaling" is applied directly to your base stats. It's a multiplier. This multiplied stat is then used as a base to give bonuses to your weapon and veil (just like a Souls game)
SpadeDraco he doesnt mean a B scaling weapon will do more dmg with a B scaling bc rather then a S scaling bc, he meant if you use a S strength bc it is best to use a S strength weapon
He said it wrong but he meant that you should fight in the way supported by the scaling of your blood code, don't use prometheus with a mage build for example.
Getting hit by that guy in the beginning of the video is undeniable fate. After going through the fast-jabbing enemies in the previous area, meeting a new enemy with a longer windup really throws you off.
It's important to clarify that weapon and blood veil scaling is different from blood code scaling. Code scaling acts as the "base" stats.
Also important to note that the scaling on armor effects the damage that your drain attacks do and nothing else.
My knowledge has grown thanks to you
Awesome. Cleared up some misconceptions I had about blood veil and wep dmg thx!
finally someone who got it right. great video. Maybe mentioning what each stat does would be good. not the theme of the video but it helps to know when you make a build. i don't think many people know tha fortitude increases stamina or that dexterity increases drain rating f.e.
If you're still confused:
*Blood Code* = Your personality/physique. Your base class/playstyle. Sets your stats and 'max' weight limit.
*Blood Veil* = _Scales off Blood Code._ Your armor, affects Weight. Has a built-in special weapon aka the drain attacks. Determines most spell/gift damage (lightning/venom/etc. buffs don't seem to be affected.)
*Weapon* = _Scales off Blood Code._ Only affects Weight. No affect on Gift or Drain damage.
Armor + The 1 Weapon you have out = Your weight. Low weight means Quick pretty blue dodges, the trade-off being you'd have to use a weaker weapon like a bayonet and a light Blood Veil with bad defense.
Very good professional guide
I have been no lifeing this game since it came out, I can reach damage cap easily. This is a good guide to help new players so they can understand this game better.
Appreciate this vid a whole lot, helped me understand better. Thanks man!🙏🏾
I've been playing this game fairly well not had to much trouble with playing and getting along but the hellfire knight dlc jesus i wanted to increase damage and now knowing that having your code stats be close to the weapon scaling is better than having it better as well as worst
Thank you for the video. I have been trying to figure out Blood Veil scaling, and the best one to use for my 2handed strength build. I am using Atlas and have an S+ strength currently. Before I was thinking Blood veils affect strength and weapon damage. It seems I should pick a blood veil which increases the damage output of my attack skills. Any recommendations?
i used the ghx veil for my str build. just finished game last night!
thank you, good to know these things, keep up the good work
Hope that you're next build video will focus on bayonet build, kinda curios whats needed to make a decent build with bayonet, that isnt a mage build.
Bayonet is coming :)
Thx fextralife for all these cool insights, coming from Ds3 ...I am a bit lost ....great game!
This explains why the game is giving me tons of bars to upgrade equipment. Matching up with all the different scaling requires lots of gear.
Honestly, I was hoping for a bit more details from under the hood...
All in all, the system works as such:
Your level and your Blood Code scaling combined translate to a value. What Value? That's something I'd love to know as well.
Then, your weapon and blood veil use that resulting value through their own scaling to determine their own scaling numbers.
What I was hoping for is some actual details how much your level translated into mystery value through scaling would be and how much each scaling represents.
Also, your scaling does go above S+, even if it isn't displayed. Tested it by equipping Atlas with 3 strength passives, 2 making is S+ and a third, while leaving it at S+, still increasing my damage.
New player, picked this up on Gamepass. This guide was quite helpful--it's bizarre to have a game call something "scaling" and then not show you the numerical stats that are being scaled. One small quibble with the video, though--technically, on the blood codes, those letter values are really your stats, so it's not accurate to call that "scaling," correct? Unless I'm still misunderstanding (which is very possible lol.)
THANK YOU
I have one question that I didn't really get an answer for. To have my Vitality scale, can I just use the vitality gift passives for it to scale? Cuz I need it for the Cleansing light one. I'm using Heimdall. Please help! Sorry if you said it in the video, I just can;t find it.
Questions about transforming blood veils. If you transform a blood veil into devour will your drain go higher as well? And what happens of you transform it into other things like gift? Can you explain transforming
is there a hard cap and soft cap like other soulborne games ?
There's nothing to cap. You don't manually distribute stat points. When you level up you just get generally stronger but you have no manual control.
Builds in this game aren't about stat distribution. They're about blood codes, blood veils, weapons and gifts.
If i learn a new gift, do i need to master it before i can use it on every blood code?
will there be a video on transforming weapons and veils? most of the elements are confusing to know what they do since the game doesn't give information, unfortunately
@bombflo1 where? in the shop I only see the price and materials needed to pay for it
@bombflo1 oh that, I know. I was looking for a description besides stats tbh. My bad
All I know for sure is that my build would have the Fortification buff if I am gonna transform my weapon - but the DPS increase isn't that much tbh.
But, if you're a ranger or a different build, maybe something like shock or poison when you transform will help?
very useful guide!
thank you again as your really helping shed light in this insanely complex game that offers so little info...anywhere
just for clarity
are you saying even if you don't meet the reqs for a veil you can still use it? like it doesn't make enough difference?
Ah, this makes a lot of sense, I've been using the Venous Claw thinking that the stat scaling would help my melee weapons damage but now I can at least switch to a better defensive one instead.
I find the venomous claw works best with mage builds
What exactly does Drain Rating do? I'd assume it changes how much Ichor you get from draining enemies but due to it being a 0.xx type of value I don't quite get how it would work since I get 2 ichor with a Drain Rating of .62, but I get the same with a Drain Rating of .83
I dont know for sure but i guess the Drain Rating is how much Ichor you restore per normal attack hit (thats what the white bar bellow the ichor counter is for since we don't always get a full one per hit) but i have no idea how its multiplied for the different drain attacks. The max ichor increase from charge/quick draining dosen't seam affected by stat.
Yeah, Drain rating on a weapon only affects the drain from the weapon
@@Roguhr The .62 and .83 were from my Blood Veils. Do they get combined with the .47 from my weapon to have 1.09 total with my .62 Veil which then means I get 1 ichor per weapon attack?
@@lagideath If it works similarly to how scaling is explained in the video, then your Blood Veil drain doesn't affect your weapons blood drain. The Veil drain effects how much Ichor you get, when using a Veil attack. (It seems your max will increase by 2 every time, but the amount of usable Ichor you regain is probably variable.)
Basically, your weapon's drain score is what you will get with a weapon hit, and your veil drain score is what you will get with a backstab/drain attack. (Not 100% sure on this, but that's what I'm guessing.)
Do stats increase, or are they static? How does leveling interact with them? I didn't catch that.
the scaling reminds me of bloodborne but overall thanks i needed this :P
Great video appreciate it dude 👌
Your blood code don't really represent your stats, it's just a scaling system, a 'Multiplier' in short. Your stats are based on your blood veil and weapons, than Blood codes do the job of enhancing/weakening your stats by multiplying a factor. Whilst there might be players suggesting to enhance a particular stat in your build, that is not always beneficial because all the scales do multiply a specific factor, over building one would increase a particular stat to a certain magnitude, meanwhile weakened by other stats if you don't compensate it. For example. most melee players might focus a lot on strength, but disregarded the stats on Light gifts, this ends up increasing the maximal damage of the physical damage to a maximum point but weaken by the buffs. On the other hand, for someone who have even spread of stats with focus on strength and mind would truly bring out a weapons' damage without hindrance
Well done
How about a video on which of the starting blood codes to use, and get them to the end of the game without changing to a different code at all?
Cuz that is how I am playing - using the starting Fighter blood code, and already just done the Cathedral.
Maybe a step-by-step guide for each area - as you need to farm for a while to unlock new skills to use.
We're working on a Blood Codes guide :)
you will feel extremely limited that way. if you never use other codes, the only way to acquire new abilities and passives is to use awakens to max out proficiency of other codes gifts, instead of grinding them with the code and ability equipped. Fighter also has less base stats and can't use any of the other codes unique gifts that can't be learned for all codes.
@@yargolocus4853 Yeah - it is limited, but I beaten the game with Fighter Blood Code. Just use Yakumo to do the dirty work (but then again Mido, Skull King and whatever the last boss is - took forever, and thank for the power of editing I don't show every single failure attempt - still cheated it in the end for progression purposes)
Personally i think the most confusing thing so far is the deciding if you get slow/normal/quick movement/dodges with each weapon since it seams tied to blood codes and both item and total weights but its not really explained or even mentioned by the game.
And a bit how white gifts scale since most of them are buffs but you don't see any numbers for them, or if they're set and its only the few offensive white gifts that scale off Mind.
It doesn't matter how items you pick up it won't weigh you down ther only time weight comes into play is when you equip it onto your character.
@@templeknights ah, i didn't mean pickups, i mean equipped items, changing blood veils can change which movement you have with the different weapons. most rifles are usually quick but a couple of the 1 handed swords are borderline so they jump back and forth between normal or quick depending on code and veil (guessing its the same for some heavier weapons on the border of normal/slow). and that is the weird part since look at swords weigh, equip it as weapon 1, look at stats screen and the weight number is different and there is no indication for what weight classes goes into quick/normal/slow more than test equipping everything and see.
@@Shaderox yeah tthat is true and the game doesn't do a good job detailing those stats either sadly. It just figuring this stuff out through trial and error. I misunderstood your post lol from the way you wrote it lol.
Is S+ the max? If i already have an s plus and adds another strength boost will that increase my damage?
has anyone found out how the transformation stuff works when it changes ur scaling stats yet
the wiki is dry as hell so there's little to nothing on it about any of it.
Wait, to put it simply. There is no negative scaling which lower high base letter and having E in weapon still increases the base dmg/resistance but slightly? Let's say Rank A in code is 100 dmg and in scaling A is equivalent to 2.00 multiplier. My code gives A 100 dmg but weapon scaling is C. So I still benefit from weak scaling 100 dmg * 1.60 and no letter is 1,00 scaling which won't increase anything.
Can we get some clarity on what is a support skill in relation to blood veils buffing them???
Best transformation upgrade for a long sword build, greatsword build, and mage build?
So far i have been playing greatsword with atlas blood code and atlas transformation, but recently got heimdalls, i guess i am on that part of the game that i should start thinking for an endgame build now, so yeah help on transformation of every kind plz?

im so confused so if your scaling is idk 400 does that mean from stat e you do 400 damage but if your stat is now d you do an extra 400 damage so all together its 800?. and is there a way to max out all your stats on a character so that they are all s. please help
damage spells do tell you how they scale, and the scaling isnt the same for all of them
they absolutely do not tell you how they scale. those stats you're looking at in the gift description are what's required to slot the gift and have nothing to do with scaling.
@@AmorphisBob ye mb, I realized it later. Saying that I did notice that the higher the requirements, the higher the dmg
This feels... confusing. The guide says multiple times that Blood codes scale and scale with Veils and weapons. I feel like the guide should be simpler.
Blood code gives you base stats, weapons take those stats and add scaling damage to raw based on those stats. Blood veils do the same but with defense, status resist and gift bonus. Veils and weapons do not interact in any way directly
Okay, but
Why do some Weapons have Mind and Willpower stat scaling? What does that affect? Does it have to do with weapon-based Gifts?
Those are for mage classes. Think of them as a staff or wand in traditional RPGs.
@@moriadine2517 They don't affect the Gift stats though. I've tried swapping through them and they don't affect "spell damage" either.
It's the MND/WIL from your Blood Veil that affect your Gift stats.
I'm curious as to what you feel like would be a good place to stop leveling your character, I felt like level 50 would have been a good place to stop, as it did carry me through to the very last boss of the game as a mage, even though I know of a few people who felt like they absolutly needed to level up to 120, and went to that point and beyond in ng, even though this is a completely different game, it's not Dark Souls, but I still feel like the level cap should be at least around 50-65, but not 120. Not this time.
I will say though, if you do the enhanced difficulty ng+, then by all means level up to 120, because the enhanced health and damage they get will one shot players very easily. But I'm mostly referring to new game for NG level cap.
I stopped at level 100, which I thought was low, but knowing what I know now, probably 80. However, as Crescent Wolf mentioned, in NG+ Enhanced you will get pwned with that level. I'm playing NG+ Enhanced at level 100 and just about everything 1 shots you.
@@Fextralife That sounds about right now that I think about it, especially for dealing with the final boss. I was getting pwned repeatedly on that one, still did great with my lvl 50 on the bosses before it though.
Which specific stat in your weapon increases Weapon Gifts? Like Fusillade Rondo? I want to know so I know which Upgrade Modification to give to my Bayonet
light is mind, dark is willpower and skill is the attack of the weapon you are using. Bayonets are a bit tricky though, since they use gift triggers. Gift triggers are ichor using powers that come with the weapon, such as explosion of fire on a fire mace, or a blood projectile of a bayonet shot. Weapons with gift triggers have str/dex scalings for their physical attack, and mind/willpower for their triggers that cost ichor. Check your bayonet, and see if it has better mind or willpower scaling. That is the stat that determines bayonets shot damage, and Fussilade rondos too. You can further incrase weapon gifts damage with other active or passive buffs, such as bayonet mastery or flame buff. Experiment which ones work with bayonets. I like the STR requiring single hit buffers because they amp the whole bayonet shot.
Wait hold up... the Blood Veil has nothing to do with Blood Code and Weapon? ... so you could treat it as just fashion? I had no idea... i hardly/never use drain attacks or magic on my build... i pretty much built my character to play like Yakumo...
Still provides defenses. If you enchant said veil to have the element corresponding to whatever you're fighting, you'll take noticeably less damage.
So what do Bayonet shots scale with? I was told Gift Power, but noticed no change between Veils. Is it weapon scaling, or is it maybe straight off your stats?
Its based off your Codes Mind or Willpower stat. I did some testing and that's what the Bayonets fire scales off of and it isn't affected by your Veils scaling. Some buffs and passives affect its damage as well.
every weapon has str/dex scaling for their physical attacks. If a weapon has listed scalings for mind and willpower, that means the weapon has a gift trigger (on a heavy attack) that costs ichor and scales from those. This is every bayonet and some others. Check if it has better mind or willpower and stack that. Bayonets also work with most weapon buffs.
Atlas and Juggernaut Sledgehammer saw me through 90% of the game
So how exactly does the stat scaling of the blood veils work? Does it really not have any effect at all to how much damage you deal?
The Blood Veils will only make your Light Gift buffs more powerful or less powerful which can effect your total damage done with your weapon if you use those buffs. But they do not effect your weapon's damage at all directly.
@@Fextralife ohhhh i see now, thank you 😆
are you sure that the veils don't effect damage? because i noticed in some of the veils i collected that the slash damage changes with each one?
What's happening there is your Blood Veil has better Light Gift scaling, increasing the effectiveness of your Light Gifts that buff damage. It's not directly buffing your Weapon Damage itself.
Fextralife oh ok then, so I could wear whatever veil I want and the damage stays the same?
Pretty sure vitality affects stamina drain from blocking.
so scaling is a lil diff on here cause on most souls games scaling means it will get stronger when at a higher level
this is good info but all u gota do is look for the strongest a weapon gets by switching classes easy to just follow that
cause he said so much it's easy to get confused so just follow wha I said
Is there a guide on how weapon/veil weight works yet? Like why if I change a blood veil or blood code the speed on my weapons also change?
There are different maximum weights for each blood codes, there are also different weight for blood veils some are heavier some are lighter etc...
If your weight is 50% or below of your codes max, you will be 1 speed stage higher then default, if you are between 50-100% of your weight you will be the listed speed, if your over the speed cap you drop down a speed. It takes your veil+wielded weapon into account.
Does Fextralife Code Vein have multiple endings or only one end? Because certain dialogues have choices.
there are multiple endings, yes
There are three, I believe
Speaking of things that we hope are getting patched in the future, code vein has to work on its stat requiremens in my strong opinion. i find it ridiculous how while wearing the harmonia blood code + the strength/willpower passive buff i am unable to wield Enduring Crimson (Loui's weapon,a one handed sword) but i am able to wield the zweihander, sunset greatsword, Impulse anchor, Sunset Hammer and Nagimukuro (all of these are two handed curved greatsword, ultra greatsword or great hammers) I hope they fix this in a future patch. Also, why does a two part passive buff increase the same amount than a single passive buff? strength/willpower increases my strength to D+ but Strength only passive buff also increases strength to D+. You'd think since it's a buff ONLY for strength and nothing else it would have a larger effect... :/
single stat boosts are weaker, but you can equip them with others. Of course you would always want to use double stats if you can, but if you wanted for example S+ Dex, you have to use 3 dex boosters on an A base dex. For me that includes a single dex booster. The single boosters are also acquired ealry on, which fits for the unbalance between early and late blood codes.

where did you find the ivory grace blood veil?
If I remember correcty, it's in the zone after the fight with mido, in a chest by the first mistle shortcut
So if I use blood code with B scaling and equip a S scale sword will my dmg be higher than if I used a B scaling sword?
Yes, a higher scaling on the sword means that the damage increase from the scaling of that blood code will be increased more than if the sword's scaling was lower
