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...

Dark Sword is broken as shit. Fuck that weapon and people that use it.

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. >_<
