The best skills in Valor Mortis don't exactly match the standard suite of Soulslike stats to invest in, opting instead to provide you with a selection of powers and abilities to purchase with each level-up. While the skills available may look simple and easy to choose, the ones that make a dramatic difference to your survivability tend to fall into the melee category, as it's the only option available to you at all times. With that in mind, here's our pick for the best skills to buy first in Valor Mortis.
Here's quick summary of the best skills for you to buy first, before we go into detail on each one further down.
Endurance is arguably more important than any other of your main upgradeable stats in Valor Mortis, as nearly everything you do (especially in the opening hours) will revolve around this resource. Pumping four points into Maximum Endurance first will guarantee that you can comfortably block, attack, and dodge more often without running out of stamina.
While you should eventually put points in Maximum Health, too, most early enemies will deal enough damage quickly enough to kill you in just a few hits anyway, so having more Endurance will help keep you engaged in learning how to block, parry, and exploit attack openings more effectively instead. In the long run, this is all but guaranteed to make you a better player.
Your next best buy is either Blocking or Parrying Impact, and the decision may come down to which of the game's two early melee weapons feels best to you.
If you're primarily using the Saber, Blocking is a vital pickup because it will reduce the Endurance used by blocking, as well as increase the amount of health you can recover by attacking shortly after. Four points in this can make a huge difference to your defensive capabilities.
If you're primarily using the Rapier, you'll find that its playstyle eschews blocking altogether in favor of enhanced parrying. Pairing this with Parrying Impact ensures that your successful parries cause more posture damage to enemies, allowing you to go in for critical hits more frequently.
