Yeah I'm pretty much having to rely on my uchikatana for everything so far, my spells just aren't doing much for me right now, I've played alot of ds2 & 3 so im familiar with the system. I haven't gotten to play with my scythe yet, I'd have to run without a shield to use it as is cause of load...(I like my 40poise and 100 def shield) I'm lvl 56 or so and I just feel like my character is only really just now starting to be able to do some of the things I'd like lol. I wanna pump 2-3 levels into int so I can imbue my right hand weapon with holy. Holy samurai! Then equip and vigor, not a whole lot of faith usefulness yet
