Gods of the Arena: Official Player Made Covenant

actually i was doin some thinkin and i made this build: http://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls/?c=3450269645297763

thought it might fit as some kind of crazy gladiator with the whole spiked set going

That would be a pretty cool looking gladiator bro.

Lol, what about your classes?

He can always use that armor after ranking up higher. xD

I am soon going to edit the ranking system - it will begin to allow more freedom the higher rank you are.

Personally, I'd have only a couple of classes: light armor and heavy armor.

Light armor can use certain weapons (spears, Shotel, etc.) while Heavily armored combatants have access to certain armors (giant's, havel's, thorn, iron round shield, etc.).

I would basically have guidelines as to what each class has access to in terms of armor and weaponry, and let the covenant member decide how he wants to mix and match them. It'd help individuality and attract more members. I'd also limit the classes to only a few. I understand what you have listed here is more historically accurate, but I think a little more freedom would help create more participation.

Aye - I believe perhaps there should be all the classes however you get to choose your loadout? Heavy or Light - light people use dextrous weapons and heavy loadouts use the strength weapons?

Well, my thought is that a heavily armored person wouldn't use something like a spear, but you WOULD expect to see a lightly armored person using pretty much anything.

Exclusive weapons for light armor, and exclusive armor/shields for heavy armor is what I was thinking.

Aye - I like that idea, it encourages diversity. May you PM me edits you would like written to the Main post?

Amos you chef, bake me cookies and put me as a Murmi-abob thing

Okay - I am making edits to the OP soon

i have to agree with the more freedom thing, while the builds u show are accurate they really restrict how effective you can be, expecially because i have never used half the weapons listed lol, let me know how high i will have to rank up 2 be able to use the spiked set, im pumped for that build

Okay - will do. Just currently arranging a war in conjunction with billy xD It is hard to be in the councils of two covs and lead another

do i have 2 do an initiation match or somthing? cause im ready anytime

No, I don't believe an initiation match is required - this covenant will begin getting a lot better after I have estabalished myself on youtube and BindMind has finished his exams.

ok, btw who is kinda the "head" of the xbox side? ik you have PSN so who do we refer 2 for whatever on xbox?

Hey Gods:

I'm still pretty new to this forum and very excited about this community
and excuse my english I'm german

I really like this cov! its exactly what I was searching for.

I'm playing a pure dex character. i like all daggers as main and second weapons.
but I'm NOT a BS fisher!!! if someone leaves his back open, his fault. But I'm trying only to do ripostes.
im a honorable fighter and love good duels.

i think i would be a Laquaerius..
and if i completely understood the description i gonna have to wear main weapon dagger sec whip..
is this correct?
is there any alternative like Bandits knife?
or double dagger?
i read that i have more freedom whith equipment when I'm a higher rank....i think i could wait to this point with my preferred weap setting

at the moment I'm SL 60 (this is my 15. chary or something) but i got a ps3 damage thing and had to reformat my ps3.. now I'm like with my first character....awesome XD
and I'm planning to go SL 80 max. there is no pollution by magic, faith or pyromancy
Charry:
PSN:muffmcmuffin
starting class Thief
Vit 25
end 23
dex 40

the others are at base

I'm fighting with Bandits knife and parrying dagger/target shield
at the moment no specific armor, just going for cool looking..

i would really appreciate a reply if I'm right for this cov...

see ya at the battlefield
Muff

You could dual wield knives or something of the sort - the bandits knife is also allowed - Perhaps use the whip in your off-hand to parry? idk xD but sure, you sound right for us.

yeay
and how does this work now, do the gods have any kind of special gesture or something?
that you can recognize them besides of their "special" armor sets

and i read that i have to duel someone of the cov, when does that happen?

is there a list with members, so i can add them in psn, or do i have to search the thread for all names?

yeah i think whip in off hand is ok definitely gonna try it

and are there any pvp vids or something on youtube or do the gods have a channel?
can't wait to represent the gods

I am going to be uploading the gods videos on my own channel currently - we have no special gestures but feel free to duel me for your rite of passage into the covenant man

yeah good idea
but at first i wanna see the video xD
maybe i dont want duel anymore

whats your channels name?


ah last question, is there any in game cov u have to be in?

my Channel is called TehInfamousAmos https://www.youtube.com/user/TehInfamousAmos?feature=guide
and I suppose Darkwraith or DM's would be the best? idk haha

yup sounds right xD

haha only cov showcase is brotherhood of the blade xD

is this another cov in this forum... couldn't find it
