Gameplay tips and progression |
Basically I thought this up because the Knight Sword is fun, but the blessed Knight Sword is a little weak for PvP. Depending on preferences, you can trade points between Endurance, Strength, and Faith (though I wouldn't drop any of the three below 30 or raise Str. or Fth. over 45, or End. over 40, otherwise it might as well go all Strength or all Faith) The Cursed weapon (be it Crushing Knight sword, Mirdan Hammer, Great Axe, whatever) is the heavy hitter, and as long as it's cursed even 30 or 35 Strength should give any of these ridiculouse damage. When Curse wears off, switch to your backup (blessed) weapon, ideally a Claymore, Pole, Great Axe, or anything you can use to make opponents reluctant to approach. In longer matches regain health while searching for an opening to re-cast Cursed Weapon on your Crushing Weapon. (keep your MP full if possible in case the opportunity arises) Progression: On the way to 125, choose Strength or Faith to dump points into, rather than split them. This way you will be doing decent damage on your way to SL 125 (this is assuming you still like to play through the game with your PvP builds as I usually do, rather than just glitch to SL 125) |
Sword and Bored -_-
This concept was so amazing that some person already made one called the Blessed Minister, but w/ 40 END & 34 STR. This is a good variation, though. ^_^ I actually prefer the extra power over the full Stamina Bar. I'd rate it up if someone hadn't posted this already D: Hell, I will anyways. +1
I knew someone must've done this before, but I somehow missed it lol. I remember seeing that build at some point now, with the dex at 12 for the Crescent axe.
Actually 34 Str. and 40 End. would probably be better lol. I'm thinking the Faith/Strength ratio would be better at 30/50 or 50/30, depending on how you want to play it, rather than taking the middle ground with 40/40.
Well thanks for the +1 on my copy/paste build xD.
Yeah, the ratios work similar to a Quality build, with FTH taking the place of DEX. Except DR kicks in quicker, so you can pad VIT & END more. 40/ 40 Doesn't work quite as well because you'll have a disadvantage when fighting the now popular FTH builds. Str builds would also have more survivibility with more firepower, so yeah… 34-40 with high END or 34-50 with lower VIT & END is how I'd do it. :0
