The Golden Vow is an Erdtree incantation in Elden Ring. It is a mid-game find on Mt. Gelmir.
Golden Vow is an incantation of Erdtree Worship, taught to knights of the royal capital for generations and leaned on as a source of courage by those sent on distant expeditions. It raises damage dealt and cuts damage taken for the caster and every ally nearby for 80 seconds, with smaller bonuses against players, and holding the prayer delays activation until allies are in range. Its damage bonus stacks multiplicatively with Flame, Grant Me Strength and Howl of Shabriri, and its damage reduction stacks with food buffs such as Boiled Crab, though it will not stack with other aura buffs. The Old Lord's Talisman extends its duration. It is a staple buff for faith builds of nearly every kind and for co-op players who want to strengthen the whole group.
Stats
The Golden Vow raises the attack power of the caster and nearby allies by 15% and cuts the damage they take by 10% for 80 seconds, a cornerstone buff for both solo fights and cooperation. It costs 47 FP, and holding the cast delays it until allies gather.
Effect
