    i'll just list everything in this post.. give me a second.

    okay when i say + i mean at that level and more is fine for things like cast speed or whatever.

    straight swords
    sunlight straight sword if 27 str/40+ dex
    balder side sword if 40+ dex

    curved swords
    falchion (it likes being 2 handed, 27str/) 40+ dex

    katanas
    iaito 40+ dex
    chaos blade 40+ dex
    washing pole 27 str/40+ dex

    rapiers
    rapier it'll notice str/40+ dex
    estoc it'll notice str/40+ dex
    ricard's rapier 40+dex

    pick the weapons that match your stats and prefered move set.

    usually you'll want to go for +15 normal weapons as they punch thru defenses the best.
    if you're stats don't allow them or you plan to do backstabs with them then use elemental.
    certain weapons are better for buffs than others, and it's up to you to decide what weapon you enjoy the most and are best with.

    +1 Baldur Side Sword

    But really, I would play around with as many weapons as you can and compare their R1, R1, sprinting attack, and 2H R1 and R2. Ultimately, any weapon you like can be built around. Im sure the people and resources on this forum could help you to make a build for a weapon you like the moveset for.

    No. You wont even notice it.
    But if you see that you're down to your last vitality then you should probably switch weapons. Most of the time that doesn't happen though.

    The Silver Knight Straight Sword, henceforth referred to as the SuperKoolSickSlicer is, unlike it's spear cousin, buffable and has a solid moveset. If only it were not for the BSS's trusting Strong attack, I lament and weep for the days of DeS when every straight sword had a thrusting strong, as the trusting strong in DaS is really really(really) good.

    Maybe i changed it too much?
    the steel protection ring is useless. And the DWGR will be nerfed in the patch, so i wouldn't use it. (Unless you're on PC, then it's already nerfed for you).
    Why 24 str? Especially if you're using the chaos blade, it doesn't scale with str at all. And the magic shield's duration is so short that it's not worth using. Will this be a coop toon or a PvP toon? If it's going to be a coop toon then you could add some faith and miracles, but even then, it's easier to heal with humanity, if you can put up with farming for it. I added some pyro and raised dex to 45 for maximum cast time reduction. I added the fap ring, it gives you more health/stamina/EL.


    Yeah, i definitly changed the build too much Look Skyward , sorry.

    24 str - it's my mistake, it need for other weapon then CB, you are right, i forget change this stat.
    But why you change armor? your build have less resists, less phis, mag and elemental defence, but more stamina and hp. Why? + 575 hp is more useful then 100+ defence in all parameters?
    p.s. i'm on PC))
    p.s.2 I'm creating build for solo pvp

    At least in my experience, 500-600 hp is better than 100 defense.
    But it's not only the hp, it's the poise. 52 poise will get you stunned by a 2h GS, but 54 is the breakpoint for it.
    You shouldn't be tanking anything anyway, PvP is more about who can dodge the most. Especially with the CB, since it's a fast weapon.

    Not really. Only that after 300 defense the diminishing returns kick in. IE, getting 100 more def after 300 isn't as helpful as getting 100 def more def after 200.

    Washing Pole best weapon in the game currently and set to become even better
    with increased 2h speed, which I guess was introduced to keep it at the top
    against new weapons which will be introduced
