Gimme build ideas
I recently deleted all of my characters and started again from scratch. Since then, I've made a level 60 Lautrec build, working on a level 120 sentinel build and plan of making a Black Knight Tarkus build. However, I can't think of any other builds to make. I want them to be different from standard "40 strength/dex and buff" or "50 int and MLGS" builds that are so commonplace. I would like ideas for themed builds, please.

Re: Gimme build ideas
If you want a challenge make a Dusk cosplay build, you'll have to get creative as to how you'd actually be able to damage people what with all the support/stealth spells you'd be allowed.
I guess it'd be fair if you could use WoG+Velka's Talisman for some Faith boost and use Hidden Weapon with a plausible melee weapon, maybe something like a Whip or something.

You could do a artorias build for sl 80/120. jov did one for sl 80 and it was pretty good.

Re: Gimme build ideas
i was going to make my own post, but heres some fun build ideas(not super powerful but certainly viable).
Tribal King sl90 ( http://tinyurl.com/7uctfrm ) alt/sl120 ( http://tinyurl.com/7lydg4g ) can use bow instead of pyro, adjust stats accordingly.
Dual Pyro sl45 ( http://tinyurl.com/7l6aq53 ) alt/sl120 ( http://tinyurl.com/7jqum9t )
Ninja Pyro sl120 ( http://tinyurl.com/73rrrkv )
i like pyro builds a lot lol. these are not by any means the best builds, but for me they are extremely fun to use.

Velka the Pardoner. A powerful and flexible build that takes advantage of Velka's scaling with DEX and INT to create a toon capable of powerful sorcery and deadly riposites.
Alternatively, you can lower the END to 30 and instead of Velka's Mask use the Crown of Dusk. This allows for SL120 invasions and have 20% stronger sorceries. The only downside is you are no longer role-playing as Velka, although you may not care.

Be sure to keep an unupgraded flame in case you ever want to use power within.
With that build, a chaos hornet rapier using power within is always viable

Too mainstream
Stick to Gold-Hemmed for maximum cosplay power!

That actually gives the build more defense for less weight! Definitely not a bad idea

According to that build, my main weapons are the grass crest shield and the parrying dagger, and the rapier is for parrying

Re: Gimme build ideas
female pyro starting gear is the coolest imo if you're going pure pyro. i do that tho, so yea used gold black hemmed also i think dusks is a tad overrated, it causes you to take 30% more magic dmg, and with all the magic weapon buffs ext in the game that is a pretty bad downside.

Re: Gimme build ideas
I thought it was only 20% and I thought it only applied to offensive spells as opposed to the the damage type... I would need to confirm these though as they are assumptions.
EDIT nevermind, I am wrong you are totally right fruit *facepalm* leaving it to remind me to check first in future

Re: Gimme build ideas
you gain 20% dmg boost for your offensive spells/pyro and loose 30% magic defense.
