The planner
Build your Tarnished, point by point
Every change recalculates your rune level and the runes it costs to get there. Load a template to start fast, or build from your class base up.
What it does
A planner built around real mechanics
Only the numbers Elden Ring actually uses: attributes, rune level, rune cost and roll thresholds. No guesswork, no invented stats.
Live rune level & cost
Adjust any attribute and your rune level updates instantly, alongside the total runes required to reach it from level one.
Equip load & roll type
Enter your equipped weight percentage to see whether you land a light, medium or heavy roll, and when you tip into overloaded.
Ready-made templates
Load a Strength, Dexterity, quality, sorcery, Faith or bleed starting point, then adjust it freely to fit your own playstyle.
Copy & share builds
Turn any build into a clean text summary you can copy and paste into a guide, a group chat or your own notes.
Saved to your browser
Keep several builds side by side. They live in your browser's local storage only — nothing is uploaded anywhere.
How it works
Four steps to a finished plan
Choose a class
Start from any of the ten origins. The planner loads its exact base attributes so nothing is lost.
Set attributes
Drag sliders or type values for Vigor, Mind, Endurance, Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Faith and Arcane.
Read the summary
Your rune level, rune cost and roll type update on every change, with a breakdown of points spent per stat.
Save or share
Copy the build to your clipboard or save it in your browser to compare against other plans later.
Why plan ahead
Every rune counts in the Lands Between
Runes get expensive fast. Planning your attributes before you level means you commit points on purpose, not by habit — and you know exactly what a target level will cost.
Avoid wasted points
See where a starting class already covers your needs so you do not over-invest in stats you will not use.
Hit a meta level
Plan around common co-op and PvP rune levels and check the rune total before you farm.
Rehearse a respec
Try a new attribute spread on paper first, so a Larval Tear rebirth goes exactly the way you intend.

An honest note on accuracy
This planner calculates rune level, rune cost and roll categories using formulas the Elden Ring community has verified, and starting-class stats taken from the game itself. It deliberately does not show weapon attack rating or per-item scaling, because that data changes between patches and is not bundled here. For those numbers, cross-check an up-to-date wiki. Treat this tool as a planning aid, not a damage simulator.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is the Elden Ring Build Planner free?
Yes. It is completely free, runs entirely in your browser, and needs no account or download. Any builds you save stay
on your own device in local storage.
How is rune level calculated?
Your rune level equals the sum of your eight attributes minus 79. Every attribute point raises your level by one. The
planner also shows the total runes needed to reach that level from level 1 using the community-verified level cost formula. Learn more
in the rune level guide.
Which starting class should I choose?
Pick the class whose starting stats sit closest to your target build, so you waste the fewest points. The planner
lists all ten classes with their exact starting attributes. Our best starting class
guide compares them in detail.
Does the planner show weapon attack power?
No. It focuses on attributes, rune level, rune cost and roll category, which follow known formulas. It does not
display weapon attack rating, because reliable per-weapon scaling data is not bundled with the tool and shifts between
patches.
What do the equip load roll types mean?
Roll type depends on how much of your maximum equip load you are using: up to 30% is a light roll, up to 70% is a
medium roll, below 100% is a heavy roll, and 100% or more leaves you overloaded and unable to roll. The equip load guide explains how Endurance raises the ceiling.
Is this an official FromSoftware tool?
No. Elden Ring Build Planner is an independent, fan-made project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or
associated with FromSoftware or Bandai Namco Entertainment. See our disclaimer for details.
