    Hey, guys. I've been playing my dex character and loving it, but now I'm wondering what my next stat should be, and I'm thinking faith. Either that or stay pure dex and just put stats into end and vit, but I wonder what's best for NG+.

    My current build is the following:

    Vit: 25
    Att: 8
    End: 22
    Str: 16
    Dex: 40
    Res: 11
    Int: 8
    Fai: 10

    what do you guys think? Should I start putting stats into Att and Faith? or should I just keep putting stats into End and Vit for NG+?

    I would recommend putting some more points into endurance. As to faith and attunement, if you really want to get into it, get your attunement up to 16 or 19 for spell slots and unless you want to use the really high level miracles, upgrade your faith to around 30. If you're sated with that put more points into either vitality, endurance, or attunement until your about level 120.

    If you're going for pve and not pvp I would suggest getting end and vit up to 40 each. Put points in faith and att after you've done that.

    Mmm. See, I actually want to do PvP, though. Because I have Priscilla's dagger and the lifehunt sythe, and I plan on putting on the bloodbite ring and wreak some bleeding havoc. I'm SL 58 by the way.

    If you want to use the lifehunt and the p dagger I stand by my initial suggestion. Largely because I only use faith to buff my weapons and you can't buff those. Also I would suggest you go get the blood shield as well for the lifehunt. What miracles do you want to cast?

    I was actually just thinking of ornstien's spear :3 It's so awesome! Any miracles would be good. I mean, for PvP, I could always go cheap and do WoG, but I'd probably like the Sunbro spears for PvE and/or the (possibly group) heals for co-op.

    Oh, and ya, I do have the shield.

    NOTE: I just invaded a world, and bowed. **** 2 shot me with his moonlight greatsword as I was bowing. -_-

    If you want to use O's spear you'll need to get your str to 24. So I would do that, then get end to 40 followed by putting some points in faith. O's spear scales best with dex and faith. Slightly less well with str.

    I wouldn't bother with the group heals if I were you. Kind of useless. Your flask heals you and your phantoms. If your phantoms really need to heal they should use a humanity. Which is easily farmed, no excuse for running out of that.

    In my oppinion WotG is only cheap if you spam it or stack a ton of casts.

    As for the invasion that will happen from time to time. Especially at low levels, in my experience. Don't let it bug you. Plenty of good duels to be had.

    Hmm. I heard that O's spear is pretty freaking awesome. I also heard it's useless. Idk if it's really good for NG+ or level 120 PvP. If it isn't, then I'd rather put more points into Vit, Att, or faith after getting my end to 40.

    Personally I like to use a +15 uchi on my dex/faith. In pvp or in boss fights I buff it with SLB or DMB. I like to use weapon buffs so I stay away from non-buffable weapons like O's spear. I wouldn't really know how well it works to tell you the truth. My main is level 172 and is in ng++++ right now and my str is still 16 if that helps you out any. 50 faith & dex, 40 end, 50 something vit, 16 att. I didn't put points into anything else.

    Yeah, I have a +14 uchi that I used to use before I got p dagger, which will probably become obsolete in NG+ since the resistances get higher and higher in each playthrough. I was thinking of upgrading a Swag Sword, but I'd have to farm the materials to get it up to +14 to compare to the uchi. I just don't know if it'd be best if I went for faith/dex build instead of a pure dex build when it came to PvE at NG+ and PvP at lvl 120.

    The materials are easy enough to farm. You can buy shards and large shards. The chunks you can get a ton of in the kiln. I don't know a lot about sl 120 pvp... I hunt in the forest so there's no need to restrict my level. As far as pve goes I found it best to go pure dex, then ramp my faith as an afterthought just for weapon buffs. Helps out on bosses in further ngs.

    End seems to be the most important thing to ramp to 40 so that you can have max stamina. Stamina is life.

    Haha! Thanks! So I'll probably go for end, and by then, I'll be second guessing ALL over again, and post this again. But now I know what to do after I'm done having my fun in the first playthrough XD

    No worries. In that case you should think about joining FC when you hit sl 120. I hear it's a grand time.

    Yeah. No, for reals. I didn't know haha! I know some abbreviations here and there, like BSS is the Balder "Swag" Sword. And WotG is Wrath of the Gods, but sometimes I just can't figure it out haha!
