Just thought I'd show off my new PvP build. It's been showing astounding success in combat, and I figured it would be interesting for everyone to see. Playing this build is a little difficult, but also very entertaining, balanced, and exciting.

What can I say... It seems weird. A lot of it is aesthetic, which I know isn't good for a "premium quality" build, but it's been working really well, and it looks nice, so deal with it. It's based on the Darksword, which can be pretty tricky to use effectively, but I really enjoy it. The reason I didn't pick the Sunlight Str. Sword, is because the only advantages I saw in using it were the speed and the better R2 attacks. Well, the way it's been playing out in my situation, is that in using a Straight Sword in the first place (as well as Great Combustion, for that matter) I've already set myself up for a close-ranged based build. If I'm in a range-strict situation, I have the fireball handy. Otherwise, I'm aiming to get up in their face. So the increased range of the R2 attacks of the Sunlight Sword aren't really in my mind. Maybe I'm wrong, but it doesn't seem to be phasing me in combat. The whip will sometimes be replaced with Ricard's Rapier, if I'm feeling like using it Although, using the rapier in addition to the sword is sort of asking to be parried. That's why the whip is a nice alternative for me. And also, I'm just good at using the whip, which is really important with this game. Everything else seems pretty self explanatory. Just remember that I'm aware of the upgrades that could have been made. However, I'm pretty heavy with the aesthetic part of this game, which could either be a curse or a blessing. Regardless, the build works if you're ready for a challenge. Let me know what you think By the way, I don't really have a name for this build, but I suppose for now it will be called "Nameless".
