Build Tips
Focus on hitting the first soft cap (40) for your primary damage stat before investing heavily in secondary stats.
You only have 30 VIG. Aim for at least 40 by level 100 and 60 by level 150. Extra HP is the single best survival investment.
Attack Rating Guide
Attack Rating (AR) is the base damage of your weapon before enemy defenses. Actual damage dealt depends on enemy resistances, your weapon's attack type (Standard, Strike, Slash, Pierce), and the enemy's specific damage negation.
Affected by STR/DEX scaling. Use heavy infusion for STR builds, keen for DEX builds, and quality for balanced STR/DEX.
Magic/Fire/Lightning/Holy damage added to physical. Split damage types often deal less net damage due to double resistance checks.
Tip: Two-handing multiplies your STR by 1.5x for weapon requirements and damage scaling. A character with 54 STR effectively has 81 STR when two-handing, hitting the STR soft cap.
Best Playstyles
50 VIG, 25 END, 55 STR, 55 DEX. Versatile, can use most weapons. Best paired with quality-infused weapons like the Claymore or Knight's Greatsword.
50 VIG, 20 END, 80 INT. Use Moonveil, Dark Moon Greatsword, or Carian Regal Scepter. High damage output with sorceries but requires good spacing.
50 VIG, 25 END, 80 FTH. Blasphemous Blade or Sacred Relic Sword. Excellent sustain with healing incantations and powerful AoE damage.
50 VIG, 20 END, 80 ARC. Rivers of Blood or Eleonora's Poleblade. Focus on bleed buildup — bleed procs deal percentage-based damage, making this build strong against bosses.
