Brute Route!
Path of the Sweeper is the Strength Build route, which begins you off with high Motivity and low Technique. You’ll be equipped with a starting weapon called the Greatsword of Fate, which is, of course, a Greatsword. This massive weapon deals heavy damage to enemies, however, the drawback costs you faster draining Stamina and slower swings when in combat.
The Strength Build makes for an easier time adjusting to the combat within Lies of P. The heavy damage Greatsword cuts through the early game enemies with some amounts of ease due to it’s high power stats, making the experience more forgiving than the other builds. The giant weapon you obtain with this build can also absorb damage through regular blocking, making your attacks stagger enemies, leaving them open to execution moves and slaying them in fewer hits.
If you picked Path of the Sweeper and realised this build isn’t for you then you can change your mind at any time! If you are the type of player who doesn’t fight with fancy techniques or struggles to parry, we recommend you stick to Path of the Sweeper. However, feel free to prove us wrong and pick one of the remaining two builds! We covered the Dex build here, Lies of P Dex Build Guide.
