Kaph- Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 What is your favorite weapon type in this game? I tried most of the available classes up to the first boss and the style i prefered was the thief. 90% on the time i fight with a dagger, sometime i will switch to a spear when dagger isn't an option (heavy armored knight are very hard to kill with a dagger for example..) I'm not very far into the game, but so far it is working well! What about you guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm running a Spellsword build using a transmuted greatsword for magic scaling. Bosses melt in a few swings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosses melt in a few swings. Yeah, I noticed that Greatsword seems to be the best weapon overall. I'm currently stuck on kraeken wyrm with my dagger build... and the main issue is that I can't hit it when it is flying. I looked up few strat video for the boss and everyone was using a Greatsword.. master race here I come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slash Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 currently rocking a spear after playing around with daggers. i like the reach the spears have, plus the attack speed is still decently quick. i knocked off the kraeken wyrm the other day and the spear definitely came in handy to get in a few extra hits while it flew.

xxdmcgee2288xx Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 (edited) Thief wielding a trident spear +3 at the moment.. The only reason I went thief is because I wanted to beat the unspeakable deep at the beginning.. I would've went knight tbh.. Still might go back, but I'm level 25 and to go back makes me feel like I wasted a few hours for nothing.. I do like the theif though, he's just not very defensive.. He's more of an offensive type player. Still curious as to what the strength stat does, considering dex is all you really need for attack.. My lil brother says it has to do with skills and the sort.. But I don't really know what he means (Edit) => ok so I played for 15 mins before heading into work today and I started up with a knight and a paladin and I found out that paladin uses strength primarily for attack. I think I found my new class. I'm probably going paladin now and I'm gonna use a great hammer Edited March 21, 2016 by xxdmcgee2288xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaph- Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 I started a newgame with a Pauper, so far i'm level55 with a pure strengh build. I'm fighting mainly with a greatsword and I use a greathammer if enemies are slash resistant. I'm wearing thief's armor and no shield. The game is now easy mode! Two-handed weapons need to be nerfed or one-handed weps need to be buffed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxdmcgee2288xx Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Yes. Even if you are 2-handing said greatsword or great hammer (as you can 1-H with appropriate specs), all you have to do is the exact same thing you would do with a shield. Oh and btw. Greatswords FTFW!! Wow. I'm a level 90 paladin with a balanced build, mostly focusing on strength (I've got about 50 or so with my rings), I have the only class 4 greatsword.. And it's level 6. Soon, I will have the trinity and I will max it out to 7. Absolutely love the paladin and how he handles combat with the greatsword, being that he's primarily a strength power class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umbra_Witcher Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I ended up picking up a two-handed greatsword to go along with my daggers/shield, this one happens to level up with dexterity too, which is nice, though I'm putting some strength points in.

starcrunch061 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Greatsword. I used the one from the sodden knight, and then the one from the disemboweled husk, and finally the one from Carsejaw. They just seemed to get better and better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SINISTER-SINS_ Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I wanted this experience to be true to Its obvious influences so I went for a classic whip toting character with the Hunter flavour thrown in from Bloodborne. It probably makes the game a lot harder sticking with the whip but I have been able to progress it just takes a little more finesse to get the job done but definitely enjoying this type of run so far.

xKrAzY_8sx Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I transmuted a great hammer into a Mace. It is really super powerful. I love it. Made quick work of a few bosses with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thalifm Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 I have just started the game an I am a level 4 mage with the normal sword you begin with. Any tips for a mage build? And I like the sword as well but a lance might be cool as well, any tips on what weapon a should get to upgrade? All the choices for leveling up and upgrade is a little overwhelming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different types of weapons benefits from different stats, that's what to look for TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
