    I'm doing harsh things with that str build, the terror of a off hand hand axe vs low poise fast builds is hilarious.

    I fought him a few times a couple of days ago.
    He buffed both times, but he didn't use WoG. Still beat him twisted

    OT: I watched the video before you posted it. I think you should make a video with someone in dragon form. It's very underrated.

    No one as of yet has offered the challenge. Will you be the first?

    I can do it. Can you fight on PS3? Most of my PC builds are still not complete.

    EDIT: Uprepped you because some troll downrepped you >.>

    I can't play before the weekend though, when will you be free. Setting up matches with people who live in america tend to be hard when you live in finland.

    Great video, I've never tried a Str/Faith, now I'm tempted.

    I rolled Wolfsins' build for SL 100 if anyone is interested in a Fai/Str for the DLC, the version in the video was obviously 120 or higher but here's a SL100 version. Fast roll, and the low Vit is compensated for by the Replenishment miracle. (600 more HP means nearly 2100 total health if the fight gets dragged out) Option to use SLB.

    Great video as always Brigade! I think out of the 9 or so channels I watch, yours is the most entertaining. You need to battle me btw!

    Uprepped because it seems everytime you post someone downreps you for no reason at all. Just wish the coward would say "downrep" and state a reason...

    I rolled this build yesterday and played a few matches with it. The weakness of the build is that Butchers Knife. The AR of a +15 @ 40 Str is a paltry 426 and it swings slow and wide, opening you up to be parried. The 1-H R2 is a backstab magnet. The 5 points of health regen per hit is nowhere near worth it to offset the weakness of this weapon.

    I would like to use the Server since it gives 7 HP per hit, but it's another weak weapon with weird stat requirements - Scales highest with dex, yet has a pretty high str requirement...

    I would like to re-roll this build with enough dex to use the BKGA and a Mace as secondary. Regeneration miracle + BKGA anyone? ;-)

    True, Kiva. Here is my attempt at this build, boosting dex up to 18 to be able to use some Black Knight weaponry:

    Since I watched Martyrs vid of the butcher's build I started to play around with Butcher's Knife. In my opinion this weapon is really underrated by a lot of players - I am currently using a Chaos +5 with good results. You are correct in the Butcher Knife is on par with the slowness of most axes but it has decent stun-lock (2H) and I was amazed at its dead angling ability (that curved swing twisted - I will play around with it unlocked like I do with the Mura to test further). You do have to time your attacks but if you have decent poise and can tank your opponents first attack you can go on a roll with this weapon. The HP regen is nothing to write home about so this characteristic was not a factor in choosing the weapon. The Butcher's Knife is definitely a weapon you have to practice with though - I recommend anyone with a STR build give it spin.

    I like the Butcher's knife a lot, I've been playing a bit with my SL100 version of the build and I'm getting better and better with it. Has a great range for an axe
