My main char has 1459 HP, wearing light Armor (Black Sorcerer Set + Big Hat), my Rings are bellowing and RoFaP. (Int / Dex Char without buffing)
Theoretical, everyone think i cant survive 5 seconds. But my w/l ratio in the burg is always positive, mostly 60%/40%, depends on my day.
And i let everyone buff his weapon.
in my opinion principle > survivability! Its such an great feeling, to win a fight against a buffing high poise dex-weapon user. And even if i loose, most of the times it is close.
The only thing that keeps me alive is my <25% roll + Crest Shield +5/lucky parries!
By the way, can you tell me your stats/rings? Ive learned much from your youtube-videos And ill try the forward dash + pyromancie, like you in your commentary.
But i dont really like your throwing knifes, while the opponent bows/grasses (at the beginning!) ...
Hell wait i remember something, correct me please if im wrong. You was the guy with "battle of the builds"? So why have you a problem with buffers, while you used tranqill in combination with high damage sorceries. There you told us, we should use 100% of our build, and you hate buffers?
Please explain this me, i dont get it ..
And i told you one thing, your parry instructions video, improved my parry skills a lot! Hell i get a parry every third game! Thanks!

Its like the few people in the pvp community have started to form political partys, lol. I'm guilty myself of being a little too opinionated with the game, how i expect people to play ext. Not aiming that at you ,but you know what i mean.
Glad to see you rocking the normal fast roll. I myself have transformed all my builds into fast roll, using the wolf+fofap combo and 50vit,40-55end, then w/e other stats you want. It really gives you variety when it comes to picking armor and weapons. You arent locked into the heavy gauntlets+leggings and light armor chest, or the mask+heavy armor+dwgr. You might put yourself at a "slight" disadvantage, but its actually very viable. Its really fun picking my armor and making my character look original, its half the fun of making a build,in my opinion. Did a mini rant there myself, i just think a lot of people should take that option into consideration.
BTW: you can't not crack a smile seeing that pic of your daughter, looks like you got a happy family there
The roll is faster(as in shorter), so the roll attack is faster. With some weapons, one could easily argue that touch of speed outweighs the potential loss of armor. The great club is an easy example.FruitPunchNinja wrote:I liked it. Although peoples opinions with this game are starting to just become chaotic.

With regards to buffs I think the 1 thing your overlooking abit is the points used for the buff...with it being at least 30 fth to make it viable on a 120 build that's a lot points spent to get the buff...so those plays are losing stats in other areas to achieve the ability to buff! I am not saying it makes them okay but just saying lol
I myself only use a buff when another play uses one as I prefer the duel to last longer than 2 or 3 swings!
With regards to attacking a buffing play I don't but thats your choice and I have no problem with it...It can be annoying when someone throws a buff on a washing pole and all you brought to the party was a chaos blade!
Lastly I would consider that you yourself are 'buffing' your pyro to the max extent possible with bellowing and crown you do more dmg with a GC than I would with a SLB buffed uchi at 30 fth....with your pyro setup it should equal out fighting a buffed player IMO!
Keep up the sweet vids man!

At 80 or 100 you have to cut vit or scaling to use a buff well, but at 120 its more "my damage stat and vit hit diminishing returns and my stamina is maxed, so lets buff because there's nothing more beneficial to do with the last 20 points."

I'd argue that slb is the most powerful because lighting damage is the most difficult to resist, where magic shield and or gmb render dmb mostly useless,
