Weapon of Choice: The Mace (your starting weapon as the Cleric class), is actually a really good weapon right off the bat. **Adaptability:** 28 minimum (38 preferred for additional I-frames).**Dexterity:** 18+ (for Bastard Sword scaling and Dragonrider Bow).Stat Dispersion: We’ll cover the ideal stats you’d need for a solid melee-build that’ll carry you well throughout every encounter in the main game. Long Range: The short bow from the blacksmith in Majula is a great start for picking off enemies from afar and then moving up to Pyromancy is worthwhile as it has a zero INT/FTH stat requirement to use (you just need to make sure your Attunement stat is at 10 to unlock one slot).įor mid/late game playing we strongly recommend the Dragonrider Bow (from trading his soul with a certain cell-bound merchant) as it hits really hard (but make sure you have plenty of END as it soaks up loads per shot).
It is light in weight, offers good protection and uses regular titanite to upgrade meaning you can keep your weight down and your rolling speed up. It does require a lot more strength to hold one-handed but we felt it was more than worth it.Īrmor: We’re big fans of the Alva’s Armor (available to buy from Maughlin the Armorer after spending 16,000 souls with him and resting at a bonfire). Shield: Early game the choice can only be the Drangelic Shield that you can find after beating the Pursuer boss as it offers 100% physical damage resistance and isn’t too heavy either.Īlthough later on though we moved to the Drakekeeper’s Greatshield, as it offers 100% physical damage, greater poise and a much higher resistance to elements such as lightening, fire, magic etc. It’s a Great Sword that uses regular titanite to upgrade with to +10 and its final damage output is around the 400 mark per swing (its move-set is also very powerful with a compliment of both horizontal and vertical slicing attacks). Weapon of Choice: For us, the Bastard Sword (found for free just after beating the Forest of Fallen Giants boss) is the perfect melee weapon. This is our melee-focused character just after starting New Game +
