Notes from author
I've never been much of a serious PvP person, I like to add variety to my builds at the expense of PvP viability. I still try anyways, but usually fail.
This is my first serious, mostly skill-based, PvP build, so I'd appreciate any constructive criticisms and suggestions anyone might have.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Important stats:
VIT: 45
END: 51
FTH: 30
1708 HP is pretty damn good, 51 END allows fast roll, 30 FTH allows WotG and Sunlight Blade.
-----------
Armor
-----------
Head: Giant Helm
Chest: Armor of the Sun
Hands: Lord's Blade Gloves
Legs: Iron Leggings
This gives 42 poise.
Right above the 41 poise breakpoint.
Makes you look decent too!
----------------------------
Rings:
----------------------------
Slot 1: Ring of Favor and Protection *Necessary
Slot 2: Hornet Ring
OR
Leo Ring
OR
Wolf Ring
OR
Dark Wood Grain Ring
Those are simply recommendations for slot 2. Feel free to replace with whatever you feel comfortable with.
--------------
Weapons
--------------
Balder Side Sword, aka. Baller Swag Sword
*Dat R2 and the speed, plus the little stamina consumption
Rapier
*110 Critical plus Thrusting sword modifier on top of being buffable
Estoc
*The move set is nice and versatile, with both thrust and slash attacks
Falchion
*R1, R1, R1...
Iaito
*I like the moveset, 1h R2 is pretty nice!
For anything above 3.1 pounds, take off the gloves for a total of 5.9 pounds available for weaponry.
---------------------
So that's my build! I assume it looks remarkably similar to many others, but this hopefully has a personal attribute to it that differentiates it from others.
Once again, I'd really appreciate any tips, tricks, constructive criticisms, and suggestions anyone may have.
If you decide to use it, I really hope you enjoy it.
