I just don't know what to do. I am using Ludwigs and Saw Clever. I have 20 STR, 12 Skill, 15 Arcane and have dumped the rest into VIT and END.

Would it be best to level up Arcane and enchant with a fire rune or go quality build?

If I go Arcane and will have more points to put into VIT plus I will be able to use all Tools.

If I go Quality I will be able to make good use of both weapons and take advantage of all the physical damage runes. What would be the most optimal way to go for PvP? I could really really use some advice. Thank you very much.

No I don't think so.

If I want to use Ludwigs and Saw Clever what is my best course of action?

I might be crazy but I was thinking of leveling STR/Arcane and enchanting Saw Clever with Fire. Most beast enemies seem to be to both Clever and Fire. If PvP ever picks up with this game I think it would also be a good combo. I always try trick my foes into thinking I am doing one thing and then do another, for example once they think I am all about Ludwig's I will switch to Saw Clever and take them by surprise.

If you really want to go elemental then yes you should dump all the rest of your points into Arcane. Just make sure you have it at +6 first so you can enchant it with Fire. Otherwise it won't get any of the damage buff from Arcane. I am not sure why no one is actually theory crafting here. The souls games had a great community that loved to help.

The thing is I think that simply pumping STR might be better for Ludwig's and not using Fire Damage. I believe the reason for this is you can find physical damage runes more so than elemental. I think I want to make a STR/Arcane build and enchant the Clever Saw. Ludwigs plus Clever Saw seems like a great combo.

I am trying to figure this all out myself so you might want to do some more digging. If you want to go elemental upgrade Ludwigs to +6. You need to farm the guys with the bags in the jail like place you go after letting one of them kill you. Then enchant the item with Fire and wallah you should have a pretty badass build one you level Arcane up. Make sure to make good use of tools and anything with Fire. Probably will want to use Tontrius as your second weapon.

I have been trying to figure out what weapon and damage stat to go for. I am thinking of trying to level STR and Arcane. Leaving Ludwig's blade as it is and enchanting my Saw Clever with Fire since it seems to already be good vs enemies weak to fire. Would this make sense? Then I could use Tontrius as well as "tools". What do you think? How much would you level STR and Arcane?

I am pretty sure I want to level arcane because that allows me to utilize more of the game. What is a good weapon to use or a good weapon to change to arcane damage. Could I switch one to fire damage? So, far I have tons of Vit and some Endurance. Need some direction. What level of STR or Skill would I need? Thanks.

anyone have any idea where the graveyard is?

I got a day off and want to get going again but I can't seem to figure out where I need to go to find the Graveyard I need to enter a portal there or something. Could someone please save me from running around for hours?

There are a few things I that I would really like to know. Its not explained well. It was fine in Dark Souls because everyone wants to know whats up day one. I assume the PvP drives this mostly. Anyway,


1. Equip Burden. I see it goes down to green and thats what you want but is that a cap? Will lowering the score after reaching Green have anymore positive benefits for your character?

2. Can you use a Luck Rune on Revenge Daggers? It has no inherent attribute bonus.



3. Whats a good dagger to use?



4. Around where do you want your luck score to be?

Could someone please explain how the "banking" system works. Do I still have a way to save if I am trying to get the bonus? I know you lose the bonus if you spend your XP but what if you just the touch the "not bon-fires) to try and save your game? What do I have to do for the bonus? You lose it every time you die right?
