but i have no characters around 40.
but i did get my siegmeyer char to 90 something and started ng+ haha

oh well, im at slvl 68 now.

i have a 62 moonlight guy i think.
he isn't super strong, but i made him randomly haha

how many bosses u have left?
im getting pretty close to the end of my first playthrough on my faith/dex character.

I think my 62 is on Gwyn but yea after that it'll be all bosses when I kill him

killed the gargoyles, expected the axe to be better

also, what do i raise, what attributes as a knight ? im ushing shield and a one hander.

if youre just doing your first play through and going for pve instead of pvp get 40 endurance and the str/dex needed for the weapon you want to use
then just cram everything else into vitality






if you havent got the drake sword yet get it.

the big red dragon on the bridge, gotta cut his tail off. its the best weapon until the lightning spear which youll get later

just so you know, all the weapons are viable, there arent really a better weapon (there are weapon that do more damage tho, but the difference isnt THAT big)


its more about the moveset

and the range/weight/stats req


as for your stats, you'd prolly want to pump your vita and endurance, and when you find a weapon you like, just check whats the scaling on it (the letters at the bottom of the weapon description)
and if its like B, A or S, just pump as much of that stats as you can
if the scaling is like C and down, you should probably upgrade it to either lightning or fire using the correct blacksmith

im sure this all sounds complicated if you just started playing, but once you get a little farther into the game, it'll all make sense

so for now, just pump your vitality and endurance as much as you can and put points in str/dex so you can use the weapon you like

drake sword pretty much ruins the first time experience imo, i wouldnt suggest getting it on your first run, unless you're having a reaaally hard time

/e: also 40end is only really useful in pvp, i didnt find it that useful in pve, imo 25-30 end is plenty, esp with the child mask/grass crest shield/chlorantry ring

it still depends one what type of character ur making.
a heavy character needs 40+ just to wear the gear and still be under 50%

my heavy character is at 50 end with havels ring+ring of favor and prot and thats barely enough.
