Notes from author
A build meant to be within the SL 125 range, with 3 core ideas shaping the build:
- Dragon Form
- Fast Casting
- Pyromancies
Stats:
------------
VIT:39
ATT:23
END:45
STR:36
DEX:45
Fast casting means 45 DEX is a given, but 23 ATT allows for Pyromancy variety and 36 STR for weapon variety.
45 END means 24.0 pounds for weapon usage.
------------
Armor: Absolutely nothing
Dragon form offers no defence, which is shite, but it has its advantages. Utilize the roar and the breath attack to make up for it.
------------
Rings:
------------
Slot 1: RoFaP
Slot 2: Bellowing Dragoncrest Ring
OR
Cloranthy Ring
OR
Wolf Ring
OR
Leo Ring
OR
Dark Wood Grain Ring
OR
Red Tearstone Ring
Those are just my suggestions for slot 2. Feel free to use whatever you feel comfortable with.
------------------------
Pyromancies:
------------------------
Great Chaos Fireball(2)
Great Combustion
Fire Whip
Fire Tempest
Poison Mist
The point of 6 slots is to allow spell variety. The ones above are the ones I personally enjoy using.
------------------------
Weapons:
------------------------
Dragon Greatsword
*Dragon ultra greatsword with a ranged 2-hand R2
Obsidian Greatsword
*Dragon greatsword with an AoE 2-hand R2
Claymore
*Greatsword with longer range and versatile moveset
Longsword, Sunlight, Balder Str. Swd.
*Quick weapons & low stamina consumption. Each is buffable and have unique advantages.
Iaito
*I like the moveset, the R2s are so nice!
Chaos Blade
*Apparently a top-tier weapon. With 10 humanity it does considerable damage on top of bleed.
Quelaag's Furysword
*Longest ranged curved sword, does good damage with 10 humanity
Estoc
*Longest thrusting sword with versatile moveset
+5 Chaos Rapier
*With 10 humanity, it has the highest critical damage in the game
Composite Bow
W/ Large Arrows & Poison Arrows
*Does over 400 damage with both types of arrows. Good for baiting and chip damage
