| Gameplay tips and progression |
go from 1-1 to 4-1. grab the crescent falcion and the compound long bow. return to the nexus and buy about 150 arrows. go to 2-1 and unlock blacksmith Ed. when you reach the boss, stick to the right of the tunnel. his fire blast will not hit you but is web shots will hurt you slightly. arrow him to death. upgrade strength to 25 asap.upgrade the states according to the above after you have reached 25 run through the 2-2 shortcut to the right with a couple blue phantoms. they will most likely be smart enough to bring souls arrow so just sit back and let them take care of the boss. when you have beaten 2-2 use the archstone to farm the six worms near the Hands of God.when you retrieve a few greystone chunks blast through the dragon god with a two handed large sword(bastard sword that you got from 1-1. make sure you WT is almost pure white before entering,here is a video tutorial on the basics of what to do. grab the DBS from the right of the entrance. after you have killed the dragon god take your giant milkbone to 1-2. after slaying tower slam your way through 1-3 (blue phantoms recommended). rescue yuria to learn curse weapon and head to 4-1 again. kill the 4-1 boss and the 4-2 boss to receive the hero demons soul. rescue saint urbain and learn second chance. farm the reapers with the compound long bow until you have reached the desired level and go smash some ass in pvp with the Over-sized Doggie Treat(or any of the other optional crushing weapons) any other equipment i didnt help out with search the wiki0.o |
Krull's Strength build(sl121)
I like this build.
Strength stat gains as you know the 1.5 in bonus when two handing a crushing weapon.
However, most exp players these days that are within the 120-140 range, can take a hit and escape the stunlock easily. That is why one handing weapon in crushing upgrade is essential.
The R2 move one handed, even two catches many off guard and is hard for them to catch a pattern to try and do a parry against you.
With 55 strength, you get good damage, with 66+ get incredible one handed damage. This accounts if using fast weapons such sa knights.
The little difference in AR damage per hit adds up when dishing out six, seven instead of just one. Using fast weapns such sa knights sword is essential to increase strength past 50.
I know many feel that 50 is the max that should be invested into strength. I personall like the smaller crushing weapons(even mace and morning star). Lighter, faster weapons=need to increase strength past 50. Heavier such as DBS which I see that milkbone used way to often, require much less than 50(34 around).
In order to get any damage off warding spammers, must have more than 50 in strength. With 60 you go right through warding like water. Crush literally any opponent who thinks by themcasting warding gives them a safe way to win. Wronngggg!!!
Nice build by the way:):)
I currently have one with 65 strength while having 40 endurance, and 50 vitality. SL 140 range. Does wonders.
