Quality build is my new master.

too easy

i played through with only this sword twice and this is the only strat worth a damn

From my testing min requirements to wield a greatsword (standard colossal) with 50 faith or int and a proper scaling ash for those, vs 60 str, str ash, the faith int had more AR by 60-70.

Further, a standard ash min req greatsword did 120 less AR than a 60 str, str ash greatsword

Found it interesting. It's worth noting almost all end game bosses are weaker to physical damage however

Jesus you STR fags really are dumb as rocks.

I should note as well- Buffing a standard scaling greatsword with min reqs with lightning weapon at 50 faith made it do slightly more damage than the str scaling ash while built for that

pure AR is worthless when comparing split weapons to non split weapons

Do you have any data to back that up because this stuff is always interesting to me

My calculations earlier didn't even include the holy or magic scorpion rings that'd add 12% more AR for the magical half, which would probably be around 8% including the scaling damage which is usually a good chunk

Occult venomous fangs, dragon communion seal,, mushroom crown, talisman of rot, rot winged insigma. 60arc, 60 vigor, 20 faith, 20 mind.

split damage involves 2 reductions instead of just 1 since you go through the phys and magic etc. defenses. a proper comparison would require knowing the target's defenses

I see what you mean I didn't think of that, typically you have a flat 100ish damage reduction of physical and magical. Do bosses have the same mechanic like that as players do? My str build honestly feels weaker despite using the same weapons as a split build but that is pve. I only pvp with the jar cannon

>BUTTERH!

Pfff your words are lies and faggotry.

Yeah bosses generally have 100+ flat defense as well

I just two hand the default longsword until the end of the game

You mean for pvp? I don't do that shit.

No one cares about you’re shitty Gattsu build. This game is for INT/DEX/ARC Giga Chads only.

It's worthless unless you apply some mental math that says 'ok I have to divide a split AR weapon by 1.2 to make a reasonable comparison'

It goes from wildly easy to frustrating as hell. I've used ashes from time to time and I put godskin duo to sleep but I'm at the final bosses. Only missed the deep root dragon because I killed that girl.
