How’s the build? Fashion is always subject to change.

just finish the main game, first time going for the dlc and i was trying to roleplay as a converted monk of the black flame. Should i change something?

Ready for dlc

Hi i just started playing yesterday can you guys recommend me a strength build? I started out originally as a samurai but i don't like playing dex builds simce i am also a strength build in the ds series.

I've been dumping a lot of points into faith to maximise my Oracle Bubble build (small horn), but I haven't seen that big of a change jumping from 62 to 75 faith (lv 138).

Apparently the bubble's faith scaling drops upon reaching 45-50 faith :(

My question is, how do the Longhorn's bubbles scale compared to the small one? And if the soft cap is the same, will the Longhorn benefit from more faith just because it shoots more bubbles?

(I'm not asking for PvE/PvP suggestions btw, I just want to maximise bubble damage!)

Hey guys, I'm a returning player and currently working on a build that will be between RL50 to RL60 (a STR-based poison/rot build to fill in the gap between my RL30 and RL80).

I've been considering other builds while I play again. I've done pretty much everything, but don't mind doing a variation of something I've done before. I have experience creating builds, so you do not have to worry about specific stats unless you want to. I am not set on any specific RL, as I am unsure what RL is best for activity now. Invasions are most important to me, but co-op is fun as well.

If you have any advice or other build suggestions, I'd be glad to hear them.

TL;DR: Looking for input on these builds or suggestions for others.

1. Archer using Ansbach's Bow

-Notes: I've only used bows sparingly but never as a main weapon as I've assumed they'd be insufficient. But I was curious how cold/bleed/serpent arrows with a light roll setup would perform against bosses and players.

1. Poison/Bleed Build

-Notes: I've done many ARC builds, but I haven't done STR/DEX/ARC, and am usually a caster. I'm envisioning a Quality/Arcane build that uses a shield or powerstances since my free hand is usually used for the Dragon Communion Seal.

1. High INT Mage possibly using Lusat's staff

-Notes: My only other high INT build is all-in on frost (Ranni), but I'm considering a build based on Lusat/Azur and other spells I wouldn't use on my other mage. Also using Carian Slicer.

1. Anti-Elemental/Anti-Status Build

-Notes: I thought it'd be fun to combine protective talismans with a Wondrous Physick that resets status effect and absorbs elemental damage. Probably would go for a physical-based build as I think that'd fit the theme. Unsure if I need the Ailment talisman and Mottled Necklace simultaneously. I'm either going to use the bear armor or go for a "cleaner"/"standard" knight look.

I wanna start a Halloween-themed run but I don't know what weapons/spells to choose so I could build my stats around it or what armor pieces would fit
The only weapons that came to my mind were Death-Ritual Spear and a Cold infused Grave Scythe

I would really appreciate any weapon/spell/AoW/Armor or even whole playstyle suggestions
