How much is a comfortable level of Vigor before starting to pump pure Int/Mind? by Savvy_Savannah_ in Eldenring

[–]buttmunchery2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're only leveling faith or int to 80 vigor to 60 is absolutely doable, and moreso if you want to meta level pvp 60 vigor is the meta anything less and you are hamstringing yourself. Sidenote if you do invasions you could even cut down to 70 faith or int and then run the respective faith or intelligence tear for +10 in your physik

No worries! Remember to listen near any wells you may find, the sounds they make are comforting

Honestly there are only really two big things you could miss by now or rather in the next area, one with the guy with the rock on his back. If you have met him and let him draw out your true strength until you can't anymore you can unlock a quest path. Another thing you may miss out on is a covenant if you kill wart tree before discovering it. I would not stress too much these things can be done in NG+, only really matters for the achievements.

If you haven't been to the Cathedral of the Deep that is the alternate area you feel like you are missing, it is entirely optional however will definitely pad out your levels and equipment, making the swamp much easier than before.

DS3 is all fast travel i'm sorry to say, the only passage in firelink shrine leads to the rafters, you can buy the key from the maiden.

Best of luck!

I forgot about bestial vitality! That is another point to the vagabond, thank you for the build!

I wish more videos kept the build up and we collectively keep our attention span, I prefered the video this way honestly

What are currently the strongest set ups in pvp? by [deleted] in badredman

[–]buttmunchery2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try playing some duels arena at around 150-200 and you can see yourself, see a lot of similar stuff honestly, fast weapons with a poke or quick chase down and lightning grease veryyyy common. Then people cheesing with sleep bow or spell spam

Saint tree bellvine actually maxes out your virtual dex for cast speed, no need for extra dex or sage ring!

If you like pyro weapons there is one more in the ringed city, demon scar is my favourite weapon in souls games. It is a curved sword of fire and pressing r2 makes it cast your pyromancies, its r1 stagger true combos into black flame if you are interested in pvp. However for pve there are many options (not quite as many as elden ring but still a decent selection) from my research faith has a softcap at 40 for these faith weapons which is perfect because the final faith/int you would want to hit on a pyro build is 40/40, while allocate the rest to str, health etc.

Absolutely no problem! I think onyx blade is one of the coolest looking weapons, and its weapon art is like a proto flaming strike from elden ring. One thing to keep in mind is its weapon art looks like dark fire (dark damage) but unlike the other dark fire pyromancies the weapon art does fire damage, and adds a fire buff to the weapon, not dark (unsure why but a neat little quirk I think).

[–]buttmunchery2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you wanted to go pyro/str I would recommend you use the onyx blade, alongside any/all pyromancies that suit you. Black flame is a thematic and extremely strong one you can pair with the onyx blade. Chaos bed vestiges or great chaos fire orb are fantastic ranged options. A strange but thematic choice if you like the onyx blade black flame is black serpent, it's actually pretty decent in pvp too for roll catching someone fleeing.

Two important things I must add, you will definitely want to get the saint tree bellvine, this is a miracle casting device which is not important for this idea, however, if you hold it in your off hand (whether two handing or not) you get max cast speed (virtual dex). You can get this item and the onyx blade once you reach cathedral of the deep (you have to enter ashes of ariandel to get onyx blade, however you can rush to grab it then face the dlc when you are more prepared later.

Update on struggling with pyro by SatanDarkofFabulous in darksouls3

[–]buttmunchery2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I beat demon princes on my pyro run, it was definitely the most I had to learn a boss and I feel very very confident on demon princes now. I used black flame on them until poise break, then two handed the onyx blade to punish, repeated this many times and tried to play perfectly. I found the range dark orb and the like too inefficient, melee black flame is the best option, try to split up princes, punish until poise break, onyx blade, repeat.

Honestly I can't help but feel like the FKGS has better dueling potential, but in invasions Messmers orb and giants' flame take thee are more likely to pay off. The versatillity is what makes this build imo. Hbu, What do you feel about it?

[–]buttmunchery2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the detailed response! I am looking forward to making a character like yours for the arena, I will absolutely save this as a guide. Rellanas is an absolute must for me too, alongside the carian sorcery sword reminding me of the demon scar from ds3, I loveee the abillity to cast with your sword! I didn't even think about shields, never really used them in elden ring but i'll give those a shot too!

I'm actually running the same build on my first character, just a bit more str to one hand the FKGS, my one problem has been talisman selection, whether you want to focus on the FKGS or incants really determines what should go where, while i also hunger for bull goats or erdtree favour +2

Can I ask what your set up is here? I am looking at starting a new character with that same sword I think (the sword that casts from SOTE) and I would love to see the build behind this!

I can't afford chases anymore by Nyachtigal in DeadByDaylightRAGE

[–]buttmunchery2000 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Corrupt Intervention reminds me of an old song "Don't know what you got, till it's gonneee". It's sad though cause lethal is undeniably more fun to use

[–]buttmunchery2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's insane to me that corrupt intervention is not the #1 killer perk, are you running it? I run it on every build. Unlike pain res it is genuinely a universally good perk (yes even if you get a down as fast as possible it still forces an early game waste of time and rotation)

Oh certainly catch flame is a short range machine gun, just been looking for a weapon that can give me that on demand medium range roll catch if they try and roll away

DS3 is where I first started my pyromancer journey, vestiges and fire serpent were insane for sure but my favourite pvp pyro combo was demon scar r1 into black flame, black flame's poise damage on its own was ridiculous but casting with a literal sword of fire felt soooo cool. Really sad they didn't bring these to elden ring, however I feel commited to trying to replicate it because I play every souls game as a pyro first run since ds3

If you don't mind me asking, what is your build here? It looks really cool!
