My build is pretty killer. I just upgraded a poison dagger to +6 that I'm gonna use in addition to my longsword, so I'm gonna see how successful that is.

Well, beat the game yesterday. Now to murder everyone for gear before I start NG+

It took a while, but my Int/Dex build is finally doing decent damage.

Hah, I use a Lothric Knight Longsword as my main weapon and I actually infused a poison dagger recently but haven't used it yet. I also want to use a scythe but I have several and I'm not sure which one to use (I loved the great scythe in DS1)...

Guys, go find a Dark Sword. This thing is awesome. Like seriously awesome. I'm currently rocking some pretty lame armour though. I still haven't really found a set that works for me

I've got a few Dark Swords, I prefer the Lothric one. I've got a mostly Dex build, so it works better I think. I prefered the moveset too.
I might need to try it again, but I spent all my upgrade materials on the Lothric sword anyway...

Yeah the Dark Sword is definitely more for a STR build and the moveset is closer to a greatsword than a long sword, which I really like a lot. I also have a pretty even split between STR and DEX so it's working out well. I kind of wish I put a little more planning in where I was spending points though. My character should be a lot better at this level

You can respec (re-attribute stat points) through an NPC. I'm not telling because spoilers, but it's an option. I haven't done it yet so I don't know how many times you can do it but it's an option at least...

Broken as in overpowered? Because I agree and it's awesome :evil: I really feel like it's just a really fast and slightly shorter greatsword, which is just deadly.

Also I haven't found the respec person yet. I'm not really in a rush to though. Right now I just wish I hasn't dump so many points into DEX since the weapons I'm using are mostly strength based. But in the long run, I think I would end up with points there any ways. I just wish I was a little more focused in my early game :idk:

Yea, it has a greatsword moveset in a straight sword package and includes a fucking shield break for a special ability. So fucking stupid.

I forget how you respec in DS3. Like I know you have to go somewhere (NOSHIT) but I totally don't know where the person is.

I can tell you that if you want :) I think I fucked up a number of things in my playthrough so far but not this one...

Nah my build is pretty tight right now. Going Int/Dex makes my +10 Gothard's Twinblades have like 400+ AR with Crystal Magic Weapon (33 INT/30 DEX currently). Taking a little break before I start playing again and start NG+.

I've come across NUMEROUS people bitching that the Dark Sword is too OP, but honestly just parry it. It's not that bad.

Was informed, by a buddy, that I completely missed an entire area with several bosses, because I didn't see a hole in a wall. >_<
