    47 poise is useless for a non melee build. 21 poise is more than enough in my opinion, so you can have various armor combinations while keeping End low (you don'tneed End to cast pyros). 1 GC with Bellowing and the crown is more than enough to scorch your enemy, and if Black Flame is similar, try different pyros like the chaos ones for fun!

    Well they say variety is the spice of life! happy

    Still bothered about the poise though, I know your an old head around the forum so you know what your talking about but going under 40 poise is a scary business in dark souls, can you give me a reassuring "there's no monster under the bed" talk? :pale:

    LOL. Well 31 poise is the number I would aim if I'm using some kind of melee weapon, but 21 poise is good against 1 handed kats/spears/BSS/curved sword. You will not be interrupted by the fast weapons, but you'll have to watch out if they're 2 handing them. In that case you'll use your fast GC/Black Flame to interrupt their attacks while dodging out. With 21 poise you have to be very dodgy.

    Also, I think I read that the DLC removed the Power within scaling damage. Someone correct me if I'm wrong cause I'm honestly not following the updates and changes coming with the patch, but I think +0 pyro hand and +15 pyro hand will cause the same health deterioration now, so there is no reason to have both in your right hand.

    Seems like wyrm already removed them though... 8)

    Yeah, and actually I don't know if there is another way to get 2 pyro flames unless asking for a trade.

    I thought the same thing till yesterday when I rescued Laurentius on my second playthrough. All you have to do is before talking to him in firelink, put the pyro glove from the first play into the bottomless box, then he'll be more than happy to hand over another cheers
