Dark Knight Forest Invader

Could someone please give me feedback on the following build (my one and only). Closely resembles Tarkus build I have seen. I don't plan on building any other characters, as I don't have the time. I do intend to use this to invade in the forest. I am having a lot of fun with it now. The reason why endurance is so high is so that I can mid roll with the golem axe when I am not greatswording it. I don't use twop often, and never to BS, just keep the adversary within range. I have gotten the occational hate messages b/c of it. I have only PVPed as a forest invader.

Couple of other questions:

1) Does power within and red tearstone ring stack?
2) Should I use the red tearstone or wolf's? I have 79 poise now is having 119 outweight the +50% attack?
3) Does it make sense for me to do NG+ (what are the benefits?).

77 poise is the mos poise you need for PvP, Red Tearstone stacks with PW.
PW does more damage from a max level pyro hand. You might try using the Dark Wood Grain Ring instead of RTSR

EDIT: Also you had 12 more points in STR then you needed.

Er, why do you have a talisman and a pyro-flame, but no spells or pyromancies to cast? :suspect:

Ryan, but the PW HP drain is considerably less with an un-upgraded flame.

I personally choose to use PW with an un-upgraded flame, but then again I've never used it with the Red Tearstone, which begs the question- what have I been missing?

That's what I meant by damage, I was telling him it hurts him more to use a maxed flame.
Rynn, please get it right or don't say my name.

One other thing, I'm a bit peeved that I can only equip two soddin rings, when the last time I looked I had eight fingers and two thumbs, wot's that all about?

Apologies RYNN :oops: , I should have paid more attention to what you were writing, my bad. :oops:

Now if you'll excuse me I'll just go stand in the corner!

Sorry about the link being bad :p, The three spells I have equiped are: towp, power within, and acid surge. I have that much strength because I also use a +15 Butcher knife or a +5 Golem ax. I just recently have been using the chaos greatsword (tons of fun btw)

use the DGM!!

I know this is lame, but I just don't like the way the DGM looks otherwise I would use it.

As an aside; I find golem ax especially fun, that is when I actually land a hit. Against gankers in the forest I will acid surge and golem wind attack from the cloud. Many don't know what just happened, they just get knocked down...

its my favourite weapon and the second best looking weapon after the DGH.
