Can't Decide... a Warrior or a sorcerer :(

[Lord Commander Dante]

I played DS2 on my PS3 till the first half of the game (SL120, been doing alot of farming).
I never finished it on the console and now i started on the PC, which btw much more superior over the console version of the game.

Im afraid playing a sorcerer will be a total faceroll and i really dont want that...
Any enlightments on the subject?

[Oh Mar I/O]

Sorcerer is totally a faceroll. The challenging aspect of the tutorial area turns into nothing but spaming spells from afar. The majority of the opening game is just walking into rooms and nuking things from a distance.

Well I was in your same position. I have choosen a mage/sorcerer in Demon Souls and Dark Souls only because I was having so much difficultly with a warrior/swordman set up. Anyways I found them to make the game ALOT easier, and that's why this time I've chosen to make a warrior. So if you want to really experience the game choose a warrior/knight/swordman, but if you lack the extra patience required go sorcerer. So far I haven't regretted choosing warrior for the first time, however it is alot harder.

Yeah i thought as much...
My problem with a melee in this game started when (Spoiler Alert)-----> I was one shotted by the three giants that keep the forgotten key, and realized you cant possibley fight them in melee range.

Imo it takes true skill to beat the game with melee. Heck even look at the first boss (last giant) it was so many times harder with the warrior then the mage. Some hints I've learned is to lure them out, even up ladders to kill them. I'm not at the part your at but if you lure correctly its possible, then theres the old know there attack patterns and run past them techq.

What I want to do is beat the game with Meele then go back and troll through the game as with magic/hexes.

You gonna have to purchase every single spell through the first walkthrough in order to do this, and it migh take a while to farm all them souls since you gonna level your melee first so you can procced forward through the story.
