VIKING TIME!!!! Co-op/cosplay with tehinfamousamos, joebroski09 and rooster330

if i where going to go viking style this build would be my main choice (i love big axes)

Pesth - its not too late to join us, we are only up to the lower undead burg.

i'm on xbox =/

damn :/

I love xbox, but i really miss doing all this DKS fun stuff that you guys do in PS

I would join you guys, but im busy quite a bit. And rooster is nocturnal and amos is ahead of me 8 hours... maybe laterz. Btw, you guys saying that you studied swordmanship makes me want to as well. I always have, but it takes money and there are very few places around in my area. I'd rather make a wooden sword out if a maple sapling and mess around with a friend... i have no friends who want to do this.

Force Xacktastic to do it

He never plays games with me for a long time. I didn't follow him to TERA, and his brother still plays DkS on the xbox, so he went back to DkS for a while. I think he's pretty much done, though. Surprised he's still going on with the Player Made Covenant, though. But he doesn't follow me with video games... at all. I have no friends who want to play Dark Souls, and I have no friends whom I play games with as long as *I* want to play them. Zack's ditched me a few times on games even though I wanted to keep playing. DkS was a game I just didn't want to move on from.

Anyway, no, he won't do it. And I know no one in real life who wants to either.

We could try to find a way to get you involved if you want to joebroski. Im up for some co op anytime too if you ever see me online.....could set up a time to invade a certain area if you want too, share stories. Blighttown or the forest would be cool

Too bad you can't invade as a team haha! In order for me to follow you guys, I'm gonna have to make a new toon, which is just bleh. Where are you guys? SL and area.

Just finished with sl 15 tbis morning, going to be at sl 30 for the depths i believe. None of my equipment is upgraded except my +5 zwei. Lol.

Yeah, I'll have to get there myself, and I don't even know how to BB glitch. So it'll all be legit. I'll post my build soooon. I'll just edit it into this post.

Oh, and why not have a Str build? Vikings probably were strong.

Another "Oh." I don't have any knowledge of Norse Mythology. What weapon should I use?

Vikings were athletic and generally considered larger than other people in their time. The idea behind the run isnt to be totally historicallu accurate or we would all be in chainmail with a round wooden shield, broadswords, spears etc. But the general rule for this is to be bare chested throughout the playthrough, any shield used has to be a round wooden shield (cadecus, red and white etc) weapon needs to be a spear, two sided sword (no katanas etc), battle axe or hammer. Some kind of horned helm or the chainmail helm or something similarly basic, the rest, just barbaric looking. Can use lightning in your weapon and only lightning miracles.

My build is all vit end, vamos royal helm eventually, giants leggs and gauntlets eventually. Have hollow warrior helm, bandit gauntlets n steel legs right now. Using the zwei 2 handed, no shield atm.

Think amos is similar, except cadicus shield, claymore and lightning miracles. Think hes going with the helm from the guy that sells stuff in the depths (cant think of his name)

Ahh. Thanks. So, here's my build at 15. http://tinyurl.com/86gvopj

Any corrections? I really don't know for sure haha!

Oh and make him the large upper body btw , build looks good, not sure about the helm, most were more or less open faced, but it can work . Like the weapon choice alot.

Mk. I'll message Amos to drop the armor for me since he can BB glitch it down. Hopefully he has an unupgraded set. If not, I'll just choose some other armor to wear I'll make it in a sec. Almost have all the sorceries...

YES! Wisdom of a Sage trophy

I suppose i could have him drop my stuff too huh ...lol. idk, might do it legit too.

*shrug* as long as it isn't upgraded, I think it's fine. If it's fully upgraded, then go ahead and get it legitimately. He and I started a co-op, but we're filming it, so we did upgraded so we don't die so often. Makes filming it easier.

We planned to film this, not sure if he actaully filmed what weve done already or not though. We need to sort of plan out what we are going to do and at what sl too, and what level of upgrades we are allowed to have. When i get home in about 7 hours i will work on it some, based on what amos suggested to me on skype

Mk. Well, I've almost killed the Gargoyles. I already grabbed my Bastard Sword. Thing is, I had a Greatsword drop for me haha! I wonder if I should go with that.

Up to you, i may get a shield just in case, but im leaving my strength at 16 so i can 2 hand the zwei and pump into vit/end. Was considering getting a bastard sword as a backup, or possibly a broadsword (just because ive never really used one)

Right now I'm running around with no shirt, no helmet, and no chest (of course) with just my gloves, pants, and Bastard Sword. Kickin' butt I just killed the Gargoyles, so I'm just grabbin' stuff before going to the depths. Mostly souls to level.

Awesome! I will write a story board for this thread, sort of a short tale of our journey as it unfolds, assuming amos didnt record the early stuff. Will be sort of an epilogue to our videos.

I'm lovin' this. New kinda way to do PvE. Just brute strength. I never really were too interested in any sorcery or miracles. I'm mostly grabbing them on my main toon to help out. Extra heals and damage are always welcomed. But at the core of this game, melee is just too much fun
