    Fast-rolling giant-moms - Ridiculous. Havel's Ring is very clearly
    OP. It's the "easy mode" ring. Without Havel's Ring, you could
    not get this set-up (and fast-roll), not even with 99 in endurance,
    though, with it, you require, very little, stat investment.

    If you want to fast-roll, with all the benefits, which that provides -
    then you should NOT, also, be able, to get maximum defense &
    massive poise.

    When I go fast-roll, i wear only robes, with very little (if any) poise.
    This is the way, I believe, the game, was designed to be played.
    If you want to be a tank build, then, really, you should use mid-roll
    or fat-roll.




    Though, if you want to fight, using this "crutch", then by all means
    do. Does, it make you, a better, more skilled, player than me?,
    that's for you to decide. I just feel, it takes out, all of the challenge
    from the game.

    Dude do you have to Troll every thread with your DWGR comments???????

    Just leave it alone stack your poise and flip away right out of this thread...it has nothing to do with DWGR its about fast rolling in havels!!!

    I am so fackn sick of you trying to flame every thread with your DWGR disputes take it elsewere!!

    I think the build looks cool. No way it would be considered OP, the elemental weapons have lost a lot of their zing at this level, and you 'only' have 30vit, and your rings are stuck in that way too. Definitely has disadvantages, vs this build which, hilariously, says ERROR when I tried to minify it, but it 'only' requires 65 END, a decrease of 34 SLs to use DWGR. Havel's Ring is so much more fair, because it does have an effect, it helps fat and medium roll be easy to achieve, as I agree with ReaperFan on.

    There is no set rule for me on when to stop putting in vitality while using DWGR.

    With all the discussion, of the dwgr, some miss the fact, how Havel's Ring,
    is also, very much, overpowered. For the most part, this goes unnoticed,
    or, perhaps, simply ignored; Because, to address the problem, many
    players, would lose their beloved fast-roll - did they wish, to continue,
    using, their preferred armor sets, and weapons.

    The only ground I see to openly call Havel's Ring broken is when it's used in conjunction with the DWGR. As the metagame stands right now, Havel's is merely a catalyst to improve the effectiveness of the DWGR. Without the DWGR, Havel's would see more use as a fat-rolling build enhancer (as per my earlier point), and probably some use for medium builds. Fast-rolling builds, if they chose to use any equipment boosters at all, would likely stick to the RoFaP instead of Havels, since they use mostly light armor and wouldn't need so much boost to achieve their roll speed of choice (except in extremly niche cases like the original point of this thread).

    It's when Havels Ring, is used, in conjunction, with RoFaP, that it's
    power is truly evident. Using, the Giants-mom build, as an example,
    RoFaP + Havels (rather than - dwgr + Havels), gives you far greater
    HP & stamina; And a roll, which is faster, and tighter, and with
    practice, many would concider, will actually make you a better player.
    The only advantage, to going, dwgr + Havels, is, the increased equip
    load. Which, on that build, is essentially wasted.

    Yes RoFaP is better than Havel's ring if you only need 20% more EL than 50%, whats your point? You gave a narrow and pointless comparison. Its like you argue yourself, saying Havel's ring is too good, but then you said RoFaP is better? It all depends on the build doesn't it? But when it comes to EL increase, nothing is better for fast rolling/flipping than DWGR.

    The point, though perhaps not clear, was, that Havel's Ring, could
    be considered, equally broken, when used, in conjunction, with the
    RoFaP. Saying, that Havel's Ring, could only, be considered broken,
    when used, in conjunction with the DWGR, is just, a way, to shift
    blame, back, onto the dwgr.

    Hey OP can you can you change the thread title to 'the 100th discussion about how broken the DWGR is and Omega Elf's need to discuss it in every thread remotely related to that'????? That would be great!!

    Btw I have a cookie for you for attempting to make a cool unquie build...in 1000's of hours of game play I have never witnessed anyone fast roll in havels!!

    You say that like the DWGR isn't at fault. Even with Havel's+RoFaP, it is impossible to fast roll in a full heavy build. Swap out the RoFaP for DWGR, and you don't even have to reach 99 Endurance to ninja flip. One option is statistically better than the other, it's not even possible to argue.

    You say Havel's Ring is just as broken as DWGR because they work so well together. I ask you this then; Is Havel's Ring without the DWGR a broken item?

    Your example is still flawed. You're comparing RoFaP and Havel's vs Havel's and DWGR. So that means you must be comparing RoFaP and the DWGR. At 40 END, you get 80EL, and 20 to fast roll. With RoFaP and Havel's you get 36 fast roll EL, with just the DWGR, you get 40 for the flip, which is considered to be better. You can't say that RoFaP and Havel's is better than DWGR, even if it does add HP and Stamina, it adds less EL, and that uses 2 rings. DWGR with Havel's has much more EL and DWGR with RoFaP has more EL than RoFaP and Havel's combined, and gives the HP and Stamina anyway. There is no way to argue that, for fast rolling, that even the RoFaP and Havel's is better than the DWGR. I'm sorry I'm gonna say troll too.

    Haha thank you man, like I said I just wanted to do something different from the low or zero poise builds I tend to make. I also will have to say no to your request. I came here for some opinions on the build, not to hurt another person.

    Which ring will offer the most benefits - dwgr or Havels, is very much,
    build specific, and based, on which roll, you happen to prefer. To say
    one is broken, while the other is not, I believe, is false. Either, their
    BOTH broken, OR, neither one is broken.

    So back to your build VeranoChico. That is pretty cool. My dueling toon is set up to fast roll in Black Iron but you got me beat. Fast roll Havel is pretty slick. You had to sacrifice over 20 more points than I did which definitely leaves you out in the cold on a few things but you've balanced it pretty well.

    Verano I still suggest you dump the helm to save on some weight and have more points to play with. I think it saves you like 15, or lets you use heavier weapons and save like 10. The added poise from the helm really isn't necessary as you're still over 100 and can tank repeat hits from anything.

    A leopard can change their spots!

    These 2 builds, are so close in stats, and in performance ability; That, no
    matter which one, is MORE overpowered, how can you claim, that one
    IS, whilst the other, is perfectly acceptable.

    Yeah I reviewed it, the helm doesn't give much in defense and regardless I can only tank one hit from an ultra weapon. The only problem I have is aesthetics.
    I'm quite OCD with matching themes or sets.
