      Behold, the definitive Strength Build. Urg.
      Character Name: Urg
      Start Class: Bandit (strength baybee)
      Final SL: 125
      50 VIT - 10 ATN - 50 END - 50 STR - 18 DEX - 11 RES - 8 INT - 10 FTH
      Covenant: None/Darkwraith if you don't wanna grind for the Dark Hand
      RH1: Black Knight Greatsword +5 (like a gazillion AR)
      LH1: Grass Crest Shield +15 (stamina regen & decent stability)
      RH2: Dark Hand (for stealing that sweet sweet humanity)
      LH2: Pyromancy Flame (not gonna use pyromancies, just power within)
      Rings: Wolf Ring, Ring of FaP (EVERYTHING you could ever want)
      Fashion Souls: Fang Boar Helm, Armour of Artorias, Silver Knight Gauntlets, Havel's Leggings
      Spells: Power Within

      Pros: 1800 HP, 339 Phys Def, and 104 Poise at Mid Roll - 860 Attack Rating at +5 & with Power Within active - Looks ****in rad
      Cons: Stamina-hungry build, relies on GCS & power within for stamina & max dmg output

      Overall: Urg big. Urg strong. Urg kill boss. Urg embrace darkness.

      Urg.

          Fat idiot
          You will need the black knight greatsword, wolf ring, ring of favor and protection
          Also elite armor from darkroot
          A build made for around 600-800 dps.
          You will have around 86 poise so dont worry. Around 30 strenght, 20 dex and as much vitality and resistance as you can get

          • Crystallized Warrior run

            Class: Bandit
            Gift: Master Key

            You need: No armor till Crystallized Set collected, Crystal Weapons only (You can use normal until you get ANY crystal weapon, Repair spell recommended.)

                anyone got suggestions on builds? already did quality, pure strength, pure dex, pure faith, pure sorcery, faith/sorcery mix, dex/pyromancy build, tank build, and the classic GiantDad build. I want something fun, not something that entirely focuses on effectiveness, but obviously I don't want it to be bad neither

                  cleric, astora straight sword in early game, then make a tansition to skill weapons (uchigatana, halberd, balder sword, etc.) raise dexterity and strength to 10 to use the astora straight sword, then all to faith up to 25 to have the rays, from there to add dexterity and strength to 16 to be able to use a variety of weapons and ascend them to divine with andre, faith to 40 vitality 30 and endurance 20, elite knight's armor, havel ring and ring of favor and protection or firstborn of the sun good luck;)

                    • This is my best attempt at a 125 build that can be used for pve and pvp. It gives you fast roll with exactly the right amount of weight! IT gives you our the fastest cast speedboat with 45 dexterity. It gives you 53 poise from the havel pieces. It give some you fast stamina recovery with crest shield and child mask. It gives you a fast weapon that can use the best weapon buff along with power within Andy bleed! IT also gives you max stamina Andy also 1600 health. Pyromancer Vit: 41 Att: 14 End: 40 Str: 16 Dex: 45 Res: - Int: - Fai: 30 R1: Uchigatana R2: Ascended Flame +5 L1: Grass Crest Shield L2: Darkmoon Talisman Armor: Mask of the Child Wanderer Coat Havel's Gauntlets Havel's Leggings Rings: Ring of Favor and Protection Havel's Ring Spells: Black Flame Power Within Darkmoon Blade

                      • Armor: -mask of the mother/father -rest of the armor slots: Black iron armor set Rings: -Havel's Ring -Ring of favor and protection Equips: R hand: -Black knight Sword (not ultra greatsword) L hand: -Grass crest shield Stats: -50 strength -35 endurance -30+ vitality everything else is up to you. That's all of it.

                          I think you should make a gold paladin using giant helm and ornsteins armor and channeler gauntlets and last with paladin leggings
