twink build help! (SL 20)

[twiggy]

hi, i was planning on making a new sl20 twink build since i messed up the greirat quest and the yoel quest (couldnt get exploding bolts for avelyn or dark hand) and i need help with min-maxing my stats this time. I use the typical dagonslayers axe build but instead of investing in 14 dex i used the hunters ring which gave me 15dex (deprived class ofc). so my question is this; is it better to invest 14 points in dex and use ring of favor+3 instead of hunters ring? or should i use the hunters ring to give 15dex and use those 4 saved points towards vigor? thanks

you didn't read completely

and so do i
TL:DR

use hunter ring is better
put that 4 point into VIG

so i calculated the stats on mugenmonkey and compared the 2 builds and without ring of favor+3 you actually gain more health lol, 14hp to be exact. however you lose out on 11 stamina and some equip load. heres the builds if youre curious; here is the build with rof+3 https://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/270230 . and here is the build with hunters ring instead https://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/270232

[twiggy]

i think youre right @BabyDontHurtMe , rof+3 isnt really worth it tbh. you can finish this build way before you get to the ringed city dlc if you use hunters ring instead. rof+3 seems like a waste if youre not a very high SL for the %increase to actually be usefull

[twiggy]

oh and if you use the same builds at SL15 you get even more hp without using the rof+3 (85hp)

No, it isn't. It's a rather pointless ring if you've already 40ish vgr and 30+ end. The Vit gain isn't really bad, but you don't need it unless you go for heavy weapons and lots of poise, but havel's ring will probably be better in those cases since the HP and stamina gains are neglegible to nonexistant.
It's nice for 2 digit levels, nice for some meta level builds and useless for the rest.

i think the first build is better however to be onest i advise to change the hornet ring (that in this level dont doing so much difference) with the sun princess ring that is probably one of the strongest in low level for all other that build is perfect even if maybe the knight class can be better.. you will have little less hp (1 point) but you add 5 point in weight that is enought to compense it with defence
