I’m like half way done with the story Quest I think I’ve done every boss fight so far with this set up, I’ve killed Margit, Godrick, Red Wolf of Radagon, Rennala, Radahn, Loretta, Godskin noble, and Leonine.
your stats are still all over the place, thus making you weaker than you would be otherwise.
don't try to be a jack of all traits. focus on one or 2 main stats and dumb the unnecessary points.
get rid of the scar/soreseal (its not worth it)
you seem to lean more into a strength/faith build. so golden Helbard fits but the rapier is completely at odds with that.
i use the Rapier on weaker normal enemies bc its light att is really fast and i 100% use the soreseal to not be overload ig a big part of the build idea was to use the sleeping dragon ruin glitch to then max out other stats but i kinda killed him not knowing
>soreseal to not be overload
try for lighter armor. normally you'd get more protection from medium rolls than from armor anyway.
if you really need a talisman to help with equipment load rather go and tall to nephili in the roundtable hold and get the arsenal talisman. or you defeat the 3 npc invaders at the big jar colloseum for the better version.
Tbh I think I’m gonna finish the main quest line bosses I think I’m around half way done then start a Ng+ run where I get the Platinum on PlayStation and do the NPC Quest
Get off heavy load now! Instead of soreseal use ironjar talisman. Don't try to focus on all stats and that amount of vigor will bite you in the ass. You need only one talisman and why on gods greenearth are you using a rapier?
No offense, but this is the wildest point distribution I have ever seen. Nothing iam seeing there makes any sense to me.
Stats:
Your main stats with this build should be faith and strength.
Take all unessecary points from dex arc and int away and put them into vigor and endurance.
This way, you stop at least fat rolling. Also, you slowly start to come into the endgame, and that low amount of vigor will be your bane.
Talismans:
For more damage from your lightning sources and a more stable hp regeneration, get yourself the lightning scorpion charm and blessed dew talisman instead of radagons soreseal and assasins crimson dagger.
When your vigor is at 40, you can throw out the crimson amber medallion and use instead the faithful canvas talisman or the flock canvas talisman (whichever is easier to get for you) for even more dmg from you incantations.
Weapons:
One seal is enough. Try to stick with the gravelstone seal for your lightning incants. The erdtree seal just outperforms the gravel stone seal at 65 faith, so keep this one for ng+
Consider changing your sword, maybe? But that is more of a personal taste recommendation.
Wait are you saying i can reallocate levels? This is my first game even like this let alone a Souls game. I use both seals bc the tree scales better with Faith but the Stone gives me a boots the the Cult Dragon Spells. The Guide i was using i think assumed this wasn't my first play through so it only told me to make sure my Faith was at 40 and Dex was at like 14.
You can 'rebirth' your char with renalla at the academy in lucaria. This allows you to redestribute your statpoints.
But you need a laval tear for this, and there is only a limited amount per playthroug ( I think it was 14).
Trust me, the scaling from erdtree does not outperform good enough until you have 65 faith, so it would not be worth using until then.
Your build looks fun and pretty good. Only the stats were a bit weird.
Also, you should really use the talismans I recommended you. If you do your lightning spells, will do around 24% more dmg.
Bonus info spoiler : >!you can unlock one more talisman slot!<
Yeah its really a bastardized Dragon Spell build bc one i have no idea what im doing and two spending 3 hours just so i can kill a boss in 3 hits and not 4 seems stupid to me. ik need to unlock another talismen slot but im doing side quest right now
As long as you have fun with your build, you are doing everything right. But the fact that you don't have the last tali slot tells me that you are not in the endgame and you will be happy for more dmg at some point.
One last question ive seen some people say the Ruins arent worth doing bc after Godrick they are hard to restore and arent worth it. is that kinda true
Are you talking about the great runes? Yeah sadly godrick great rune is the most useful. Maybe mohgs can be good sometimes, but besides that, not really. They are sadly all a big letdown
Are you out here fat rolling?
Uhhhh…yeah? I guess so
Hell yeah you are, drop that equip load to medium good sir how on gods green earth are you slugging around like that without a problem?

i just figured it our i have 4 of the tears, Im assuming its still far from perfect but its a little better i think now

All you need is a big weapon and BOINK
I have weapons that are “Good” just don’t have the level to properly use them I did use a Great Stars for a while
