How to Get Currencies in SWORN

There are a total of 6 different currencies in SWORN and you’ll often be forced to choose between them, or if you unlocked the Trials of Combat, sometimes you’ll get the extra chance to farm certain currencies. To make your decision less daunting, here is what each currency is for and when you should prioritize collecting them:

Fae Lords - How to Pick Your Blessings in SWORN

Know your Fae Lords and what they best synergize with. What the “right” choice for you ultimately depends on your build and personal preference. A good rule of thumb is to focus on 1 - 2 Fae Lords with good synergy, for example:

Fast Weapons: Gogmagog + Lugh for a deadly, immobilizing, crit combo Spell Build: Beira (Spell regen passives) + Lugh (Single-target Spell)/Oberon (Multi-hit Spell) damage increase

To help you choose which synergies to play around with, we’ve broken down each Fae Lord and outlined where they shine best.

How to Upgrade Weapons in SWORN

The best Weapons in SWORN are ultimately the ones that cater to your playstyle. The Vigilante is a great starting character with versatile ranged and close combat options. To grasp your general playstyle, try playing around with some builds like:

Sword + Blade Rush for an agile, close-combat build Bow + Dagger Flurry for a full-ranged build Bow + Shadow Strike for a ranged assassin build Chakrams + Shadow Strike for a full backstab build

Weapon upgrades aren’t available at the start of the game — you’ll unlock this feature after defeating Sir Gawain. To use your Grail Water most efficiently, it’s best to hold off on upgrades until you’re confident in your weapon choice.

Best Tree to Invest in Early

SWORN has 5 tree branches: Life, War, Wealth, Treasure, and Devotion. But in the early game, you’ll most likely only have access to the first two.

Life improves your overall starting health and grants health regen abilities. War improves Spell Damage, Movement Speed, and reduces your Ally Revival cost. Wealth gives Gold at the start of your run, unlocks a passive Gold-earning ability, and reduces your Ally Revival cost. Treasure increases Fairy Ember and Grail Water earnings. It also unlocks the ability to reroll blessings. Devotion increases your odds of receiving Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary blessings.

Which tree you prioritize largely depends on your fighting style: does your survivability stem from a larger health pool or dishing out more Spell damage? Regardless of your preference, I strongly recommend picking up the Resurrection Token passive as soon as you can. This ability gives you another chance to continue your run, making it an invaluable early-game investment. Now that you know more about SWORN, check out 10 Best Action Games on Pro Game Guides.
