STR weapons

Does anyone else here think these weapons got Screwed over a little in this game in demon souls the UGS where incredible and the hammers where damn right killer, it seems you have to be extremely good to use these weapons , whereas dex weapons anyone can pick up and use them well, do you think the game designers made str like that so only the hardcore would use them?

I don't think the BKGA is hard to use at all.

They mainly got scrwed over by having dex reduce casting time. It basically meant if you wanted to cast in pvp you needed to be dex based. So I heartily agree. They are also too easy to dodge.

thinking more GA DGA DGM DGH, those sorta weapons, BKGA is kinda the all purpose weapon pick it up swing away

sadly i have to agree with yo billy, dex got all the perks in dark souls which is why everyone uses dex weapons and you dont really see str builds which is cool cause it only makes my builds more unique i guess since i rarely see anyone else use the weapons i use. another thing is that theyre easy to punish with a roll bs and poeple just rather go with whats easier than picking a weapon that's hard to master and stick with it.

yeah tis a shame i quite like my str toon, but most players ive faced outside of FC, just roll bs everytime, and i havnt figured out best way to counter that on a STR build

try not no attack too much, never get too close to them and they'll just roll bs you evry time and try baiting theminto thinking youre gonna attack and instead bs them yourself, its hard but doable.

i have a personal vendetta against BSin someone i really dont like doing it, even if there trying to BS me themselves, damn morals

Dex builds were made to use offensive spells because only offensive spells are sped up by Dex. Str builds were made to use buffs and the sort. Or at least that's what it looks like.

Overcompensation for the awesomeness of the dragon bone smasher, great axe, meat cleaver, and mirdan hammer. But yes, str weapons are noticeably more difficult to use.

I miss the old school str weapons, all kick *** and face breaking.

dragon bone smasher was awesome! iused to dual wield them with no armour

I ran blessed great axe and blessed mirdan hammer as backup. 18hp/second regeneration base, with regeneration bumping it to 33/second for like 2 minutes and second chance. I was that guy.

ahahah teh guy who just wouldnt stay down even though you knocked him from side of the island of storms to the other

Usually I was the one doing the knocking but yeah. When I was outclassed by aggressive players, I played for time and waited for my chance to 2 shot them with my axe.

pvp was more fun back then

blessed meat cleaver!! back up mirdan for kat users.

fights could last hours, oh it was fun

My buffed GC kicks *** at the Burg, only punished by roll BS, but I've found a way to lure them to my roll R1. I might tweak it because CSS rarely connects, so I think he is better with 32 Int, and rest could go up to End and Str, as he has 50 Vit already. But his backup weapon is the Moonlight Horn, so @40 Int it gets max AR.

i have a str/int build that has 32 int and 40 str, it hits pretty hard, havent used it in months but i liked it when i used it.
