As you progress throughLords Of The Fallen, you’ll face various challenges like enemies, environments, and bosses. The most effective way to overcome these challenges and boost your power is by upgrading your character and gear to match the increasing difficulty of the game.
While it may seem beneficial to concentrate on one stat and level it up extensively, it’s worth reconsidering this approach due to something called Soft Caps in the game. This guide will explain what Soft Caps are and how they function in Lords of the Fallen.
Soft Caps Explained
Soft Capsfunction similarly to other Souls games when it comes to leveling up your stats. They act asthresholds reached at specific levels for each stat.
After hitting these thresholds,Soft Caps reduce the bonus you receive from further leveling up in that stat. You’ll observe a diminishing return compared to previous levels.
For instance, if you raise your Strength beyond 50, you’ll notice that with each subsequent level, the bonuses reduce.
This principle holds true for all other stats as well.
All stats havemultiple Soft Cap thresholds. Upon reaching the first threshold, you’ll experiencea slight reductionin the bonuses you receive.
However, when you reach the next threshold, you’ll noticea more significant reduction in these bonuses.
This is the point where you might consider focusing on leveling up other stats to gain bonuses from them and maintain a balanced build.
Here is a table displaying the Soft Cap values for all your character stats in the game:
50 - 75
20 - 40 - 60
