Uchigatana Build

[Reanu Keeves]

I know it scales with DEX, So I wanted to know how far should I max DEX and what other stats I should be maxing as well. Plus...which is the reccommended armor/gear to match the Uchigatana? Thanks a lot

you'd be surprised what you can mix and match with weapons, armor, and anatomy.
IE: Try a Cleric Hat, Way of White Chestiece, Leather Gauntlets, and Chain Leggings.
That's at least for one of my guys.
you can always invent your own idea. but i'll toss mine out there.
Edit: Another one; Black Hand Hat, Black Hand Chestppiece/Assassin Chest, leather gauntlets, and lorian's leggings. Flaps and inqusitions for days.

Armor is very much personal preference, if you want the maximum efficiency of the uchigatana go up to 40 dex with a sharp infusion. Put health up fair bit, but stamina doesn't have to be that high. With small weapons I sometimes even stay at just 20 endurance, since it doesn't take that much stamina to swing

Doesn't DEX scale up to 60 in this game, though?

There's a soft cap at 40, then another one at 60. For example, you might get +4 damage with every level up to 40, then only +2 with every level up to 60. He'll get more damage from going up to 60 obviously, but staying at 40 is more efficient

Edit: cause of armor basicly go for what you want. i usually go for fasion over stats :P

I got 40 on DEX already...was thinking about maxing vitality and equip Flynn's Ring to add more dmg. But you guys tell me if it is a good idea...If not, then I'll up some Vigor instead

Flynn's ring and vitality have nothing to do with each other. Flynn's works off of flat weight, not percentage. It goes up to 30 weight before it doesn't do anything, and it's not really worth the ring slot unless you're under 20-ish weight. If you want to use Flynn's ring effectively you have to be using a light weapon and light/no armor

Instead of a DEX build do a quality build. Level up DEX and STR to around 40, and use a refined gem. Your VIG should be around 27, because for VIG 27 is the softcap. For END I suggest around 20. You can level up magic-related stuff if you want, but don't level up luck or VIT. Just don't.

[Reanu Keeves]

Wouldn't be better sharp infusion for the Uchigatana?

60 dex if you want to go all the way, 40 dex if you want to pump some other stats.
