Hi. My name is Skra and this is my first build

Hi. My name is Skra and this is my first build.

I started playing Dark Souls Oct 11, 2016. I wanted to role play this game as a knight for no other reason than I like the way knight armor looks. I realize that there are better defensive options. It seems to me that new players almost always tend to make a Giant Dad and I want to do something different. This build is what I have ended up with.

While learning this game, I realized that the Claymore has TWO thrust attacks: a one-handed thrust attack and a rolling two-handed thrust attack. So, whether I’m one-handing or two-handing my Claymore, the Leo Ring bonus damage would always be available to me. It occurred to me that the Leo Ring would go with my build nicely considering that I'm fast rolling in medium armor.

With Charcoal Pine Resin applied and the Leo Ring counter bonus triggered, my one-handed R2 thrust attack does 820 damage against the Cleric in the Darkroot Garden. My two-handed rolling thrust attack does 836 damage against him. The Leo Ring aside, stabbing the Cleric in the back one-handed yields 884 damage, a two-handed backstab yields 901 damage and Riposte is 1048 damage (I used the Cleric for testing because he heals himself). With the Green Blossom and the Grass Crest Shield regenerating my stamina, I rarely find myself unable to use my rolling thrust attack. It's just always there.

I've read in the forums that the contemporary quality build is 27/40 because of the two-handed bonus for strength, but I wanted to make certain that my one-handed thrust attack did as much damage as efficiently possible because the damage bonus granted by the Leo Ring is percentage based. Also, since my two-handed thrust attack requires rolling, I had to figure out a way to get my equipment burden below 25% so that I could fast roll without being too squishy because my vitality is so low.

So, my first build is finished. This is it. It's my Veteran Knight and I love it.

How did I do?

nice blog, fuck off.

This is Miyazaki, please don't play my games

Bad pasta

If it's a knight then why are you wearing the balder armor chest plate?

Off Yourself : The Thread

I would fucking crush that build dude

>play at the same time as 2 roommates
>they're light armour rolly faggots. having no issues with bosses
>I use all the heavy armour I can find
>fat rolling everywhere, getting fucked hard by bosses


Eventually I learned how to make heavy armour work, but those first few weeks of playing blew ass

Why is this post a pasta? It's not even funny

pretty sure the balders are called Balder KNIGHT...

What's the point in posting a pasta about a basic 40/40 build when you could just say you wanted a Dark Souls thread?

I've been using the basic halberd on my latest playthrough. I'd never bothered with them before aside from the great scythe and BKH so I expected something like that, instead I got a beefier spear with better attack variety. Overall I'm okay with it.

Fuck the haters, I love this pasta.

>hardcore fucking minmaxing
>first playthough

Nigger, I had a BKS, full elites, a knight shield, fatrolling, and I DIDN"T KNOW HOW TO UPGRADE and still beat orn and smo first try. Fuck your build.

Nice try vishnu

>Being this bad
Nugger I had a shortsword, a tower shield, was overencombered, and I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO ROLL, AND I WAS PLAYING BLINDFOLDED and I still beat orn and smo first try, get on my level.

Hi. My name is Gruntilda and this is my first build.

I started playing Dark Souls Oct 11, 2016. I wanted to role play this game as a knight because they're pretty keen! I realize there are options with polish and shine.
It seems to me new players make a Giant Dad most of the time. I want to do something different. This build is how I pay the rent!

While learning this game I realized, the Claymore has TWO thrust attacks at any time. A thrust attack with just one hand, and two-handed thrust with each roll I land! So regardless of my one or two handed stance, Leo's bonus is available at a only a glance. It occurred to me that the Leo Ring would go with my build nicely because I keep my rolls fast in case things get dicey.

With Charcoal Pine Resin my one-handed thrust will shit in your eye!
The eye of the Cleric, in the Darkroot he hides. My two-handed rolling thrust attack makes him cry! The Leo Ring aside, stabbing the Cleric in the back one-handed yields an 884 damage attack. A two-handed backstab yields 901 on that hack. A Riposte is 1048 (I used the Cleric for testing because hitting him's great)! With the Green Blossom and the Grass Crest Shield regenerating my stamina, I can always stab that dyumb filthy animal! It's just always there, to end both bird and bear!

I've read in the forums that the contemporary quality build is 27/40 but my one handed thrusts must true as my nose is warty! Also, since my two-handed thrust attack requires rolling, I reduced my burden to keep myself bowling.

So, my first build is finished. This is it. It's my Veteran Knight and I love it.
