    I'm currently at SL 89 and have no idea how to properly continue building this. I'm having a massive problem in finding armor that I think suits my character and keeps the equip load sub 25% without RoFap/Havels. So far the only combinations that have met these requirements seem to have low to zero poise - would you suggest to still go for them and stock up on Vit to make up for the low armor stats?
    Would it be wiser to improve END to 42 or to remove the Black Iron Gauntlets altogether to meet sub 25% earlier?

    Man up, learn how to play dex and ditch poise. The shield is only in there to be a crutch. Would have sent you my build but I fear that it is a lil too un-forgiving for people who believe poise is needed for DEX builds....

    @tinypantha:
    Am I too high right now or did you do a character with SL 225 on that page?

    Anyways, thanks for the tip! I might not qualify for your build yet, as I'm a pretty new player. I read up on a lot of stuff in this forum to step up my game, I couldn't really find anything too specific about my question though.

    I ended up going with version number 2. I also added a parrying dagger to my offhand.

    If you don't think Wrath of the Gods and Replenishment are good choices, what miracles would you recommend instead?

    Also, I have no idea why you are comparing replenishment to Elizabeth's mushroom. Last time I checked Elizabeth's mushroom is not an accepted pvp heal, like divine blessings.

    I play on PS3 and sometimes PC.

    Miracles aren't something I tend to enjoy using.
    Healing of any kind isn't really fun when it comes to fighting. The Replinishment is just holding you back from learning to counter quicker and be more flexible by allowing you to mess up.

    Emit Force is a good miracle if you can aim it.

    So I really don't know what else to add to this assassin build I recently created, so is there anyway I could make this build better.

    The build relies a lot on dropping down on your opponent and backstabbing them.

    The build.

    First off, the computer I'm using isn't able to save any pages on mugenmonkey so I won't be linking it.

    I'm interested in making two builds, both SL 100;

    Build 1: Entirely dedicated to using the Sunlight Straight Sword. I prefer Light rolling (with DWGR if plausible) over medium rolling and poise is not necessarily necessary. I generally dislike miracles and prefer to not use them unless I'm also using sorcery. (I just really dislike having a low Int score ._.)

    Build 2: Black Knight cosplay with the Black Knight Greatsword. I'm hoping to add in pyromancies using my secondary weapons and I strongly prefer medium rolling over heavy rolling.

    Aside from this, I just want to know what you think is the best set of stats. The armor I'm less concerned with.

    My first attempt at making a PVP toon with heavy Faith. I call him the "Witch Hunter" as I'm trying to design him to have an advantage over mages.

    Witch Hunter BUILD

    - Effigy shield can be swapped out for Crest, Dragon Crest, ect.
    - Ring of Sun's can be swapped out for Wolf (total 53 poise), Cloranthy, Leo, etc.
    - The weapon's and Miracles could be swapped for a regular +14/15 and then buffed with SLB.

    Should I change anything?

    Addiction to RoF? No!
    Silver knight leggings? No need for poise!
    Eastern Gaunlets? Swap to Traveling cleric gloves!
    Estoc goes in left hand. Gives you the ability to swap attack styles on the fly. Roll Halberd, Roll Estoc

    Hmmm, I like where you are going with this. Only issue is the no poise thing. I like the option of switching to 53 poise on the fly with just a ring swap. Which is why he had 13 base poise. It comes in handy with certain opponents.
    And I can't crit with the rapier now, but having it in the left hand might be worth it for some interesting combos.

    I actually don't crit much when I use rapiers, I like their movesets. I can widdle down an opponents HP and still be fast enough to dodge their counter attacks.

    Make use of the Leo Ring
    No Faith or Int

    Just looking for some suggestions before I get to making this. I plan on switching weapons around, possibly using a pickaxe in place of the Lucerne. But, the Lucerne will be the main weapon I use. Any suggestions would be great!

    Brave Fencer Musashi Build

    Desired Soul Level: 50-75
    Str or Dex: Dex
    Favor Dmg, Vit, or End: Damage
    How you will use the build: No shield, tricky fighter with a good mixup of attacks and effective use of weapon buffs.
    Other info you find useful: Anything constructive or objective will do just fine!

    Notes: I built this character specifically for PvE, but now that I've finished it and am very, VERY pleased with the results of this builds effectiveness; I want to tweak it a bit for PvP and test it against some opponents. I have never really been that good at PvP and I've just used whatever's fun at the time regardless of K/D. So, really I'm just curious as to what the community thinks to tweak this build a bit to smite players online using my desired parameters! big grin

    I dont like poise at all.
    Also learn to quickswap it will save you the pounds of the winged spear and balder side sword. Enough for iron leggings.
