im tired of trying to find catacombs games and not being able to play if theres none up.i also wanna get my prof up.so i wanna make a character that i can do 1-71 decently fast using arena only.(fg is not a problem) what character would be able to do this the best?and what items should i use?any help is appreciated.

You want top end gear, some regen stuff, and a vault to store shrineables. And some patience.

is there a character that can generally do this better than others?(out of the starting characters and a samurai)

the char doesnt matter, the gear is what matters

use the sammy imo

Any melee character will be effective going 1-71. Either fighter or Sammy with a hybrid build will do well soloing in the Arena

kk thanx guys

Read up on how to hybrid, very strong build if you want to Arena melee.

In my opinion you dont rly need HM / Stat combos, if you just get high melee stat items and get alot of int you'll kick ass.
