Occult gives better scaling in Faith, worse scaling in Str/Dex. When compared to divine at least. It also adds an Occult aux effect. This means that it does more damage to Lord-Type enemies (Silver/Black knights, Ornstein, Sentinels, Lord Gwyn). This is a bit more useful than divine in most cases. Divine allows you to kill skeletons in the Catacombs without killing the Necromancer first. It will also keep the skeletons in Gravelord Nito's chamber down.
