Best Spells for Sacred Relic Sword Build in Elden Ring
For the Sacred Relic Sword Builds, If we use Golden Vow with Flame Grant Me Strength and pop the Flask of Wondrous Physick, the damage goes to 3750. So that will be an extra 1000 extra damage just by popping the flask.
If you are using the Wrath of God spell, the preferred combination would be Golden Order Seal. The Erdtree Heal has better faith scaling. With this weapon, you need to double up the armor because the sword swing is slow, and you will be vulnerable after initiating swings from the enemy.
In terms of Incantation, using nothing, the base damage was 1963. Using Golden Vow, the damage went up to 2258. Then, the combination of Flame Grant Me Strength and Golden Vow showed no difference in damage. Added the flask, and damage went up to 2750.
Using the above combination, the enemies less resistant to Holy Damage will do even more damage. During the fight, your flask will last three minutes and, Flame Grant me Strength will last thirty seconds, Golden Wow will last ninety seconds.
