Straight up strength weapons are way too slow and it looks like quality and dex weapons are better off being imbued with elemental damage than being straight up normal. This guy is a serious Dark Souls PvPer, I'll post a few of his other vids in here. I find them interesting so I'll share them here :)
I agree that 40/40 isn't garbage but compared to weapons that are already infused and you slap a weapon buff on them kinda makes it sad how the damage scaling has been nerfed if you're a pure melee or dex character. And dex scaling really is bad to me to the point for me it is the hardest class to play pvp wise and im pretty much making a hybrid now by having a dark melee character (making my weapons dark and giving them the resonant buff spell) maybe that would give me more damage because right now having low damage output in pvp is a serious issue.40/40 builds aren't garbage. He's using a weapon with C scaling so of course the damage difference is shit. Pick up a club and slap 40 str on it and see if it does anywhere near the same damage as if you had the minimum to wield it. Granted it's still far weaker than you would be able to do with a faith/int/hex build but that's because it gets twice the scaling. It gets scaling from both the weapon/infusion and the buff you can use even after it's infused.
Edit: Also Dex scaling in general is garbage. From what I've heard they apparently nerfed it from what it was during the server test.
yeah i found that out when a i was watching a friend who was new to DS did it. you can also use lifegems tooHoly crap, so apparently you can drink estus while climbing a ladder xD
I never knew that...
themoreyouknow
nope, you need a palestone. kinda sucks but whatcha gonna do?Yes and you need no stones iirc. Just 1000 souls to revert back to its original
The fastest way is to learn to hex edit...I'm trying to 100% this game, as in getting all of the spells and miracles ect. and I'm not sure if it would be better to join the Brotherhood of Blood get 500 kills and do the same with the Blue Sentinels or go to NG++ and just buy the covenant spells from Wellager. One is time consuming and the other is just painful... xD
Odd... I found blue orbs to be more effective than red as they search across all areas if they don't find anything nearby, although they are harder to get of course. Maybe that's just because of NG+ though... I hear it's a common habit to kill all the NPCs prior to starting NG+, so maybe there are more sinners.i keep re-joining the blue sentinels hoping for more invasions with blue eye orbs and i'm constantly let down. it also just sucks that you don't get a token of fidelity at least for winning. i really hope From revamps the reds and blues bc it is just a pain to do anything with them.
I would assume you can negate the damage, but I can't imagine it reflecting... It's probably more rewarding to roll through and get the free backstab.can you spell-parry soul greatsword? i mean i suck at normal parrying online, so this is more of a curiosity thing i guess.
never thought about that, might have to take my sentinel onto NG+ for some action. i should also mention that i have cross-region play turned off because i really don't wanna fight someone across the ocean only to get lag-stabbed. i haven't really run into any lag issues yet, but i've seen people get the ol' fashioned DS1 lag-stab. kinda wish that the winner in the duel at least got to keep their token, that's pretty much the only reason i am blue since the ring doesn't work for shit.Odd...

I haven't had any luck with that ring either, even at 150 and in NG+. I'm sure you know this, but you can only be automatically summoned by a covenant ring while the icon left of your health bar is flashing... Blue Sentinels' ring only works when you are inside the Cathedral, basically around that bonfire. ...I didn't know that for a while, but even still, I've never been summoned.kinda wish that the winner in the duel at least got to keep their token, that's pretty much the only reason i am blue since the ring doesn't work for shit.
I sorta did that too. I made a lance character with a huge focus on healing (because Lucatiel is an idiot) ...and lances are so unsafe you need a sidearm for them. It feels like a dagger L1 is safer than waiting for the lance to recover on it's own. She's between Mail Breaker and Mace of the Insolent for now though.also found out you can dual-wield a spear and a sword at the same time. i was under the assumption that it had to be 2 weapons in the same weapon class to dual but i guess not. guess that means i'm making a hilde character.
when you dual spear and sword you do the dual spear moveset i.e. the simultaneous thrust attacks.I didn't know you could dual wield a sword and spear either... I'm gonna give it a try now, and I'm praying it's not that god awful dual halberd moveset that everything seems to get.
