Question: What are some of the more common stat/armor setups?

I am starting to plan out/add the damage calc for mugenmonkey and I need some of the more common stat setups/armor setups for various levels to add to it as presets. I'm looking for things like general strength, dex, int, quality, vit gouge and hybrid builds stat wise. Nothing really specialized.

I want them for SL 50, 100, 125 since those seem to be good level ranges.

Thanks for the help.

Are you talking about presets in terms of builds? For example, when you say general strength are you looking for something like this? beep I didn't put much thought into it but I think this is what you mean? Is the purpose of this to be a resource for newer players? Sorry for all the questions I'd just like to know what you're getting at.

The norm for most builds that are SL 99, 120, or 150 are as follows:

Vitality: 40-50(sometimes more)
Endurance: 40(and a handful more if you're struggling to make your preferred weight)
Resistance: Base
Dex/strength/int/faith: 40-50 of the stat that your weapon or weapons scales with.
Attunement: Usually about 10-16 but it isn't uncommon to go up to 28.

Common rings are:
Ring of Favor and Protection(By far the most common)
Hornet Ring
Havel Ring
Bellowing dragoncrest ring
Wolf Ring.

Is this the sort of thing you had in mind?

I'll focus on the armors since no one has touched that yet, really.

This is what I personally view my builds to wear.

DEX:
A mix and match, or the complete of the following set:
Wanderer's
Thief/Black Leather
Shadow Set
Blade Lord Set
OR ANY LIGHT ARMOR.

STR:
Depends on the build. Are you using a greatshield? If so, I'd recommend any of the following sets:
Elite Knight
Black Iron
Golem
Giant's
Havel's
OR ANY MEDIUM SET THAT'S UPGRADABLE
OR ANY LARGE SET

I usually expect to fat roll if I have a greatshield.

But if you're 2h a str weapon, I'd recommend medium rolling, so any of these sets, as long as you're medium rolling
Elite Knight
Silver Knight
Cleric
Catarina
Brass
Eastern
Artorias'
OR ANY MEDIUM ARMOR, UPGRADABLE IS RECOMMENDED

INT:
Anything mage looking. I usually use the same stuff in the dex list, or maybe the dingy chest, or perhaps something from the Maided or Antiquated set. The important thing is that you FAST roll.

QUALITY:
This is easy. You either fast roll, or you medium roll. This build is supposed to be flexable, so I recommend to go fast with a light weapon, medium with a heavier one. Elite Knight works great for my quality build, but I usually see people mix and matching heavy and medium sets. The Giant's chest is a common one.

VIT GAUGE:
Go with pyromancies, a light elemental weapon, and then use what you think is best. The easiest would be a full upgraded heavy set, which will make you fat roll, but you've got the vitality to take a few hits.

HYBRID:
Fast or medium roll. I recommend fast roll, so the Dex and Int list works for this. If you want to medium roll, the 2h str list works for this.

Hope this helped. If you need any info on the armor sets, click here.

Why did you put the worst gauntlets in the game on that build?!

If ya want armor then dingy set all the way! The stats are godly especially when you consider the fact that it is one of the lightest armor sets in the game.

Dex/Pyros with Crown of Dusk and katanas...I swear these builds are 50% of everyone I fight.

Weight+poise - it was all it needed after all.

Something like that, yes. It's not a resource really, its more about having build presets to see what kind of damage you would do against different kinds of builds.
I guess I should say, when you hear a someone say strength build, what comes to mind first? A mid-roll zwei as you posted or something else.

I realize that with all the possible combinations out there its hard to just say something is a standard strength build or standard dex, so i want to get a few different setups for each type of build(strength, dex, int, faith, dex/int, dex/faith,str/int, str/faith, int/faith, vit gouge, tanks, etc) at each of the levels.(50, 100, 125)

SL 50 VIT Gouge: https://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls/?c=313390307888271596

First let me:

These are standard SL 125 builds, stat wise.

For armor types use the best defense to weight ratio armors that meet common poise breakpoints like 31, 53, 61, 91.
