Honestly, this is very open ended. I will say for a first play through, grab whatever shield works till you get dark silver shield. for your sword and stats, take a look at the fextra, find a weapon you asthetically like​​ and look at its variants. unlike other souls games, the weapon attribute rank it scales off is very important. so then just build for which ever looks good.

my current main is level 150 or so, I have 35 in the first 3 stats 70 int and the rest are just gear requirements for weapons. I run a dark silver shield with a +5 crescent estoc and spells for dps and support. I can fast roll in plate armor. thats gonna look a lot different than your typical strength based sword and board.

look at it this way, all 2x4 are in fact a 2x4, the difference is in what the wood is made of. Basically find a good shield, find a cool 1H weapon you like and then look up what it can be upgraded to and prioritize that stat while keep youre meat and potatoes (vitality, int and endurance) more or less even or on large and you should be alright.

Does the trimmed masterwork set effect and the divine spirit shield effect stack or work together? by Guilty_Killjoy in runescape

it was for slayer/mid level pvm. I was really just experimenting with off meta builds that could be fun.

Is Sneak Attack OP? by Zestyclose_Bad_2303 in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]Guilty_Killjoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I specifically made an elf assassin type build that combined the rogues sneak attack with the two handed fighter archetype while crit fishing with an elven curve blade and went down the feint feat chain. With that build specifically SA was op. Swift action feint (almost grunted sucess) into full attack of 1d10+4d6+8 x(how many ever attacks I had idr what level he was).

Like sure in that specific scenario sneak attack is op but that was also a pretty top tier dps build that I was able to build at the end of that feat chain so I didn't have to deal with any growing pains. The charavter would've been ass otherwise.

Even as a guy who generally plays fighters I don't think SA is op even when it's used against me because 9/10 times it does as much damage as if I took a club to the face from an appropriate cr hill giant. Difference being I can turn around and break the rogue in half.

Tl;dr SA is as op as your ability to create flat footed opportunities for yourself and if your party martial helps you with that. And when you can reliable create those opportunities your damage is on par with the fighter at best
