    Hey folks, new to the game and I just wanted some feedback on my main player characters stats, I just want to see if im on the right track for a faith support/light tank set up. also, as a PvE cleric, would joining the Princess guard for the miricles be wise? How are those miricles looked at in PvP, I've heard Estus chugging is frowned upon, but what if your playing as an apothacary? wouldnt that be the point? character is level 60.

    Vit-21
    Att- not sure at the moment, but i have 4 slots, 5 with seance ring
    End-20 (fat roll)
    Str-19
    Fai-30

    miricles - Homeward (PvE only), sunlight spear, Great sunlight spear, heal, emit force

    equip:
    Divine flamberge +5 (where can i find White chunks? white for divine right?)
    crest shield+Crystal ring- +7,+4
    Armor of the GLORIOUS (love the medals, i dont think ill ever leave this armor)
    Elite gauntlets and leggings- +3,4
    Eastern Helm.

    one last question, what are the prefered SLs for NG+ bro-operation?

    I'm sure you mean lightning spears since you need 50 faith and Gwyn's soul for the sunlight spear....

    ....anyway, white chunks can be found in the Tomb of the Giants (along with the large divine ember). Get your endurance up so you can at least mid roll, and swing your weapon more than twice, lol.

    What rings are you wearing?

    I switch out a lot (my rings), really depends on what im doing, I like the "glass canon" combo of the tearstone rings, but latley ive been trying out the evil eye ring for sustainability and steel ring of protection

    For a greatsword, the flamberge is pretty light, so i can throw down a good 4-6 swing combo but yeah, Im going to invest some souls into End. before endgame

    Keep Faith @ 30 for the time being.

    Maybe bring your STR up a bit and use a greatsword/ultragreatsword/hammer that scales well with Strength and you can buff with Sunlight blade for the highest dmg output.

    If your looking to favor faith more, then stick with making occult/divine weapons like you did with flamberge. They wont deliver as much damage as a buffed weapon but will be better suited if you just want to Co-op.

    Best lvl for Co-op in NG+ would the 100 mark IMO.

    Greatsword is fine. But doesn't have great scaling. So probably making it elemental would suit you better. Unless of course you want to up your Fatih...then again, Occult +5 or Divine +10 would work.

    Blades? Meaning Katanas?
    You can make anything scale with faith by going down the divine/occult path. So your options are limitless.

    Blades in general, personally i like my Weapon with a bit of "ompfh" behind it silly Divine it is then!

    also, Anyone wanna gimme a hand on the tomb of the giants sometime? i got past Pinwheel (awesome fight by the way, his cutscene creeped the hell out of me the first time) but the Dark tomb is impossible to see in and i cant find this lantern thing anywhere.

    You'll get a lantern once you naviate yourself to patches. Theres a bonfire just by him. When he kicks you down you'll get a lantern. Until then...if its your first time....good luck, hahaha. But don't worry, thats how it should be. I wish i could do ToG for the first time again. I hated it and it took me forever. But now i have it so memorized its taken all its lustre away.

    Use prism stones if you must and enjoy the challenge.
