This is one of my favorite things about the Reddit Dark Souls community and I’d love to see us keep it going here. They organize these two week events for everyone to play the games together. Play online and be invadable, invade, co-op, whatever strikes your fancy. I’m KerooSeta on PSN if any new players wants some help from a so-so Souls vet.
Any builds you recommend?
In every Souls game, a quality build is a great first playthrough build. With Quality, you prioritize STR and DEX more or less equally until you find a weapon that suits you and then stop leveling up the stat you don’t need. Other points can go to health and stamina.
Alternatively, the Sellsword class starts with one of the best weapons in the game, the Sellsword Twinblades. They particularly pair well with a DEX build.
Also, FightingCowboy on YouTube has great build videos. And in is through walkthrough of DS3, he does a Quality build.
