Notes from author
A nice boring PvE build.
-High vit for good survivability.
-Att can be lower or higher depending on how much you like, personally I get annoyed if I can't carry around at least 4 at a time (which brings us to 5 slots because of ones that take 2)
-Endurance brought to soft cap so we can dodge good. Both rings are in support of this goal, as well as wearing bigger armor.
-Str/Dex only brought to requirement for claymore- Lightning weapons remove all stat scaling, and even if you brought them both to their soft caps and left the claymore as +15 normal the lightning one will end up doing more damage cuz most enemies have shitty lightning defense.
-Armor was just the set closest to the Fast Roll weight limit I could find.
-Claymore is a really awesome weapon that can adapt to multiple situations easily if you know the move set well (it contains up/down chops, left/right swings, and stabs). Good damage, and can be got relatively early in the game, which is important because your damage is only ever going to go up when you upgrade your weapon.
-Grass Crest Shield because it's active effect is awesome.
This build doesn't really fit a niche very well because while it will make the game pretty easy, it's probably better for noobs to do str/dex builds so they can experiment and find weapons they like themselves, whereas non-noobs are probably more inclined to something actually interesting, as we find ourselves 4 frigging years post-release. But I like it because you don't have to do a lot of grinding to get souls to level yourself up a ton.
