Looking for a new and fun build.

[The Weenie Warrior]

So recently I saw a video of some guy completely breaking the game and defeating Midir before even reaching the Abyss watchers, and watching it made me want to make a new build for Dark souls 3.
Unfortunatly, I've done the majority of "mainstream" builds ranging from Strength, Dex, faith, Quality, Sorcery (one of the most fun and also most rage inducing for me personally), and even started a Jon Snow RP build for the hell of it. But now, I feel quite burnt out of the "meta" builds.
So I come here, hoping the community can aid a fellow lost Ashen One in his dream of learning a new and fun PVE focused builds.
Armor + rings + weapon combos would be greatly appreciated!

broken estoc build anyone?

[t103left4dead]

I'm in the early game of (what was going to be) a bow only build. It's fun. Some bosses are hard af, some are surprisingly easy. I sort of lost patience so now it's not a bow only build anymore, but I plan to use it a lot in PVP for keeping pressure on opponents when the try to roll away and heal or summon.

It's a demons greataxe and fists build.
Buff with power within and then use bountiful light to negate the constant withering away of health.
Boom!
Damage!
And alsp usage of an underrated weapon!

It's good for pvp.
And pve because of the fire damage.

Try making an aquamarine dagger build. It's underrated and I want to see it more.

Fun fact, I tried a "Bestoc" build and swapped it out for Gotthard Twin swords

Oh that does sound intriguing, never used Demon Greataxe extensively.

That seems like it could be a fun build. I toyed with the possibility to make a dagger build, only downside would be to playthrough 90% of the NG just for the dagger

Someone could give you the dagger.

Someone doing that isn't going to be using a quirky "fun" build, they're going to be as meta and minmaxed as possible if it wasn't an SL1 run.

Cosplay one of the hollow peasants from the Undead Settlement using your choice of either the Four-Pronged Plow, Great Wooden Hammer or Shotel - or all of them! It's easy to farm for (unless you just cheat spawn the set and weapons in), they have low stat requirements (another plus for cheaters), and in my 400 hours of playing this game I've literally never seen anyone use any of these weapons so you'll be -relatively- unique and unorthodox.

Cosplay builds are my personal weakness. Love them. So you can really just pick any enemy and be like, "I think I'll try -that- style."

Or you can go more the distance and invent a cosplay to represent an enemy from a past game, which some may even have weapons and sets available for use and easier sporting. Few examples being the Pursuer, Desert Sorceress, Ruin Sentinel, Imperious Knight, Lucatiel, Forlorn, etc.

Be creative, and have fun!

Ah by that I meant the video got me interested in DS3 again, the run he did was absurd and no way would I try that.

gael build- play with executioner gs and some healing miracles or something like this, 1 kill-7fp with executioner gs

Cosplay characters are fun, but most have such a limited weapon selection that it's not always the most fun in PVP.

It is.
Also, there are the demon fists for roll catching.
Good for pvp.
And pve.

So far its coming down to the Demon axe and the Aquamarine dagger. Just got to figure out an armor set and rings for those buids and I think I might have my next 2 builds.
