I started with exiled stalker pure agility, but now specialising in agility/inferno dual wield. My weapons allow me to apply a cocktail of bleed, poison and fire damage which is amplified by the Pendant of Burden amulet.

Game started a bit slow but am having a blast now. And armor tincture is a great addition - FromSoft please take note of this!

I started as exiled too, but i tried to lvl up Inferno-Str. Im regreting it know, since i feel Inferno must be bug or the dmg scale is wrong or its simply underwhelming compared to other builds.

36 str
25 agi
20 end
20 vit
11 rad
8 inf

Dual wielding 2x great swords (one does fire 200, the other does bleed 100) and naked for the most part, as armor is too heavy when dual-wielding great swords...

The last major boss I beat was Spurned Progeny

A good chunk of enemies (around 40%) are resistant to inferno damage

[Shard of Manus]

Dual wielding the Devotion's Might and Bloody Glory.

I fat roll, but doesn't matter when everything just gets completely pulverised in one hit.

I don't really have a solid build or anything.
I just stacked a bunch of agi and vit and I am using the mournstead spear + the infantry spear and dual wielding them. It's not the strongest build but I am having a lot of fun with it.

I feel like I am finally able to live out the Sanada Yukimura (Sengoku Basara) playstyle in a soulslike game, with the high attack speed on spears and the good range + dual wielding animations I am just wrecking stuff. Occasionally in tight corridors I 2hand the spear to a forward stabbing attack so I don't bounce off the walls.

I have tried messing with a bleed build as well but it just wasn't working out as well for me on a fight to fight basis because the bleed never really procced fast enough so I opted to go from 4-5 shotting mobs with the bleed build to 2-3 shotting most regular mobs with the dual spears cause of it's higher physical.

There is far stronger builds out there that I would recommend over what I am doing but I am having fun and in the end that is all that matters to me.

[Farkus]

Dual wielding Pieta's swords for maximum smite! IDK if we're supposed to be able to buy multiple of the same boss weapon, but this build is really fun.

Strength / Radiance

20 Strength
15 Endurance
35 Vitality
35 Radiance

Not levelled Agility of Inferno. Found it pretty fun when not being ganked by the numerous enemies or sniped across the map, which is a game design problem not a build problem

Using the Bloody Glory great sword.

I am about 20 hours in and still in the early stages of getting familiar with the game and its controls, haha! Picked the weapon/mage hybrid class (can't remember the name) and it's going alright. Not really good but not bad either. Level 30+ currently and I still don't know where I want to go with my build. What does agility do exactly? What's it useful for?

[cfcurasi]

Unga Bonga strength build using the +9 Faithful Bludgeon atm

50 Strength
10 Agility
30 Endurance
50 Vitality
20 Radiance
8 Inferno

I deal insane damage and delete most mobs in a single running heavy or a charged heavy and bosses go down quick as hell. Very OP later in the game, will definitely pump Strength to 75 before stopping to really up that damage to the extreme

[Maru たたる]

All Paladin all the time!

11 Strength
8 Agility
20 Endurance
30 Vitality
60 Radiance
8 Inferno

Running the lightsaber, heavy armour but keeping myself in medium and a radiance scaling shield.

Spells I am still working on figuring out what I like.

[Rannek]

Radiance build is actually good and comes online early. If you use Pieta's sword you get an excellent scaling weapon with insane range. Start Priest or Dark Crusader. Dark Crusader has a few extra points in strength and endurance allowing them to wear heavy armor as equip shields with higher strength requirement but Priest lets you min-max better.

All radiance and vitality. Only 2 stats you need.

Some weapons scale with AGI stat in terms of damage, so this is where I invest some of my hard earned XP

There is an option to respec so I am not too worried now - just experimenting and enjoying the ride

Fitzroy's sword goes hard. Was using the old mournsted pike before I found it

[zmanbuilder]

I'm doing doing a heavy strength radiance build, great sword and a big shield, so far it is working pretty well.

[2001 Space Oddity]

I'm doing a strength build, can't decide if I prefer the Angel's Axe or Faithful bludgeon. I like the axe moveset better, but the bludgeon does ridiculous damage.

29 strength
10 agility
20 endurance
25 vitality
8 radiance
8 inferno
