In Code Vein 2, Bequeathed Formae offers versatile offensive abilities that use Ichor to perform powerful attacks. Unlike regular weapons, they have their own dedicated slot and functions and can be swapped anytime from your inventory. This Code Vein 2 Bequeathed Formae Guide shows what these are, and where to find all Bequeathed Formae in Code Vein 2.
Bequeathed Formae Guide – Code Vein 2
Each Forma not only deals damage but also often comes with extra effects, like slowing enemies, hitting multiple targets, or firing projectiles. They don’t add Burden, so you can equip them freely. Picking the right Bequeathed Forma for your stats and playstyle improves combat efficiency and strategy.
Bequeathed Formae occupy an offensive slot and are activated with a dedicated button. Damage from each Forma scales with specific attributes, making them more effective with certain builds. Because of their unique effects and flexibility, they can enhance almost any build, giving you a big advantage in combat.

Upgrading Bequeathed Formae
All Bequeathed Formae can be upgraded to +5 using Heart Remnants and the Primordial Heart. Heart Remnants are fairly common, but Primordial Hearts are very limited, with only four per playthrough.
Visit Jadwiga at MagMell Academy and spend Haze along with the required materials to increase base damage and attribute scaling. Upgrading makes each Forma hit harder and scale better with your stats, improving overall combat effectiveness.
Each Bequeathed Formae is designed to suit different playstyles. Some are better for brute force builds, others for dexterity. By matching your Bequeathed Formae with your character’s stats, you can maximize damage output while efficiently managing Ichor during battles.
