The basic starting Talisman of the Cleric class might seem a bit redundant at first, compared to all the other Talismans in the game, but it does provide an excellent means of casting Miracles and is a solid choice to keep throughout the game. Of course, you can and should switch it out with better Talismans as you progress through the game, but until then you can bask in the glory of a great starting item.

- Excellent starting item
- Good scaling
- Decent damage

4. White Hair Talisman
How to get the White Hair Talisman (2:51)
Now we get to the good stuff! The White Hair Talisman has the unique effect of being able to cast both Pyromancies and Miracles, some of which scale with Faith (Miracles), and Intelligence (Pyromancies). This duality in the weapon is great for players who want more diversity while they’re making their way through the game. Due to some strange scaling and bugs/design, this Talisman is extraordinarily weak at casting Dark Miracles, so stick to the normal ones and Pyromancy and you should be golden.
What makes the White Hair Talisman great:
- Can cast both Pyromancies and Sorceries
- Decent scaling
- Solid damage
White Hair Talisman stats:
- Regular: 73 physical attack | Faith scaling: D
- Regular +3: 102 physical attack | Faith scaling: C
- Regular +5: 128 physical attack | Faith scaling: C
