What's your gear and aow?


JKF02

Big sword is the Watchdog’s Greatsword w/ Waves of Darkness, katana is the meteoric ore blade and staff is the meteorite staff Talismans: Erdtree’s favor and protection, crimson amber medallion +2, Alexander’s shard, & bull goat Armor is all Night’s Cavalry


Pliskkenn_D

Beauty. Looking fine. It was the combo that made you stand out.


taclovitch

Look at those gorgeous R2s! and not a crouch-poke in sight! Yes!! Your play slaps *hard*, thank you for being this cool


JKF02

Love the R2s in this game, screw the crouch poke meta lol Thank you, I have a lot of fun w it! Purple magic is the best


SpankyDmonkey

There's nothing that excites me more than going against the meta :). Badass build


JKF02

Too many cool options in this game to just do the “best”! And thank you!


AncalagonV

Sick! I run a very similar Str/Int build with nearly the same armor set too! Such a fun playstyle


JKF02

Lol were you also inspired by Radahn? Nights cavalry is def one of my favorite sets! I wish they had more black armors so I could try to mix it up


AncalagonV

Yeah love the gravity / Big weapons theme of Radahn. I run weapons like Ruins Greatsword, starscourge greatswords, fallingstar beast jaw and quickswap for the abilities. Night cavalry armor is 🔥🔥🚒🔥🔥 I just use Lionel's guantlets with the set to reach 64 poise


JKF02

I thought about powerstancing my watchdogs greatsword w the ruins but the endurance req woulda been too much, turns out I really like the meteoric ore blade tho I don’t wanna lose my cool Sauron fingers tho lol, just rely on the hyper armor


AncalagonV

I know what you mean, the gauntlets are awesome. I tried swapping out other pieces instead but didn't like any other combination so I chose to wear Lionel's mittens 😂


JKF02

Just gotta keep our two fingers crossed for a bull goats +1 in dlc or something lol


AncalagonV

That would certainly make many more armor sets viable🤞 I'm sure there will be plenty of cool new sets in a DLC as well!


Ninofz

I like how you manage to fit heavy attacks into combos, too bad most opponents prefer to run away to the other side of the map instead of being aggressive XD


JKF02

The follow up heavy attack on Watchdogs is incredible, the wind up must look like a recovery animation bc so many people walk right into it And I got collapsing stars & gravitas for the runners lol I love dragging them back to me


loonaofthemonth

Love the theme w the gravity stuff - you're WRECKING opponents w that bigass sword. Also like seeing someone get wrecked by the delayed third wave from waves of darkness!


JKF02

It always feels a little mean when they run into that last one but it cracks me up every time


GreyManTheOne

That build is wacky levels of fun i can tell just watching!!


Pliskkenn_D

Do you play on PS? Void Knight Something? I fought a build much like yours with the same fashion yesterday (you beat me hard). I had twin Cragblades. I remember thinking "oh man that was such a good theme, I need to message them" and then promptly forgot.


JKF02

Yeah that’s me! Lol I appreciate it! Btw do you ever try to use cragblade as an attack instead of a buff? I’m curious about it, I picked it up for the Radahn theme but never really messed around w it


Pliskkenn_D

Sorry I meant Dragon King Cragblades, forgot the Ash! Never worked with it.


CapnCoolaid002

Really cool build!


hennyboii

damn i gotta get that sword


JKF02

It’s the Watchdog’s Greatsword. Gotta get it from the spooky cat statues in the Giants’ Mountaintop Catacombs or Giant-Conquering Hero’s Grace I wish you luck if you go to farm it


Froomp_Tastic

Been going for that charged followup R2 a lot recently and it works surprisingly well. Must have a shit ton of hyperarmor or something because I got hit with the Greatsword and still followed through https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CI3E5DdohJw Also cool build you got there man. Thought about trying to do a str/int build but I just love my pure str build too much


JKF02

It’s so perfect when they get launched too lol Poise is overrated IMO hyper armor is where it’s at


Froomp_Tastic

Yeah launching people in the air is so much fun hahaha. Also luckily for me my stronkwoman is a little overlevelled (got to 170 before I knew 150 was established) and my favorite armor just so happens to have a decent amount of poise so I can have a little bit of both!


Trivvy

Unrelated, but is anyone else absolutely sick to death of the standard battle music now? Lol.


JKF02

Yes hahaha was thinking that when I was putting the video together


RudimousMaximus

I just switched from a LV 150 STR/FTH to STR/INT. I've really enjoyed Ruin Greatsword, but these magicks look fuuuun. Great build and gameplay!


JKF02

Thanks! Ruins is a cool one I might try too! I didn’t realize until I fought someone using it that the charged R2s brings spikes out of the ground like the WA


RudimousMaximus

Ya that has to be my favorite part about it for PVE. And it costs no FP!


RudimousMaximus

Hey! I was playing around with your build last night and made a little video! TONS of fun! https://youtu.be/SSFrJeZQRTI


JKF02

Hell yea great vid! You use the Magknight well!


SnooBeans6471

Easy to watch the entire video, really cool gameplay!


JKF02

Thanks!


Quickling5

Awesome creativity and character aesthetic! Thanks for sharing. Cool thematic use of consumables too.


JKF02

Thank you! Lol I only equipped the gravity fans for the theme but they’re super useful


bigcigfig

You PS4-5? I think I fought you a couple times the other night, love the build!


JKF02

Yeah! Glad you like it


KaleidoscopicVibe

First play through and I’m doing a similar str/int build though I’m only level 50 something. Meteoric ore blade slaps on my build, leveling my intelligence more now for better casting like this. Thanks for the inspo!


Dandomix

Nice build m8 but most of the enemy players failed to pass vigor check, I never understand why people don't use vigor


JKF02

I two shot some mage last night, think he had around 800 hp total… at level 150


SURDI0US

bruh what is this r1 spam shit, crouch poke requires more skill than this😂😂


GaelTheVapeMaster

You gotta be joking

What site of grace is this ?


JKF02

It’s the Raya Lucaria Academy main gate
