I have had a few PMs asking if stacking poise is fine. Any SL 50-55 build that is using weapons is perfectly acceptable. There are a few points I want to make though.

Really, these events are about fun. Winning is great, but I would also like everyone to have fun as well. As example, it might be somewhat of an easier and quicker win to stack poise, dead angle with a Zwie and have the match over in seconds. But I would question the fun for both players. I would ask that veteran players also take the time to help out any new participants and try out new things. Part of these events are about learning. As an example, from the last 2 events people still talk about the broadsword and drake sword users who did great. There is not a lot of talk about the players who consistently stun-locked and won is seconds.

But like I said, all weapon builds are fine and the diversity of the builds is great. Just try to keep fun in mind. I look forward to seeing all the cool builds in action.

And of course any of the hosts can use TWOP to troll the players.

YES!! yet another layer on an already truly delicious cake.

question; will any of the hosts be livestreaming this?

I think the weapon dropping will help with that as well, I'm currently going to upgrade two Uchi's for people, I've got a few other weapons like Warpicks and stuff to Raw+5, I'm trying to upgrade some things that people don't use all that often mainly but I have a few of the standards. Like I'll bring scimitars, broken straight swords, etc.

Awesome! I am looking forward to this.

Yeah, it's just really difficult. I'm hoping I can have enough for the event when the time comes since I imagine people probably won't be easily giving any back. So I'm just farming Co-Op at the iron golem, and buying large shards, then I go to andre and buy normal shards and begin upgrading. It's definitely grueling.

k, we can drop stuff to hosts...

Summon me sometime later today, I still have a load of chunks from when I was farming slabs from Darkwraiths. I've upgraded pretty much almost every normal armor/weapon that I ever wanted to use, and I can break down extras through Frampt.

I'm doing raw upgrades, so Large titanite is where the path stops. Thank you for the offer though.

I can let you have shards, chunks ect or you an kill my high sl toon and get a million or so souls to buy them.

I have some spare weapons I could donate for the event.

You (and I) can still break down chunks into Large Shards through Frampt, I was doing that when I ran out of room for chunks. I'll break down enough so I have 99 of shards and large shards, how about that?

I just always feel a bit guilty about receiving things unless I do some sort of trade for them.

I'm in need of some humanity on what will be my sl55, I can let you have 99 shards/large shards

It's okay, most of this stuff is going to random members anyways. Most of the stuff I need are random things I plan on picking up later on in this playthrough anyways, with only Gwyn's and Kalameet's swords I would of liked using right now for this event.

Can let you have kalameets sword, don't know bout gwyn's but you can have his soul if not.

Well in that case, Tolvo, do you have any extra Demon titanite? And maybe some Dragon Scales?

Dunno if i really can participate in this event. I live in a location that makes my connection very unstable, and i do not want to inconvinience people with lag.

I'm geathering stuff all afternoon...I'll give some nice stuff to hosts for them to distribute at their own discretion, not all are full asscended but some are...

I'm going to be gone this weekend. So, I'll be missing this entirely. I hope everyone has a blast though.

oh reim man that's too sad...

Come along anyway, I'm sure you won't get many complaints. This is all about fun, so it shouldn't be too much of an issue.

My PSN name is Zulos and I would love to join in the fighting on Saturday.
