Stamina worth raising?

[Timmy]

I'm lvl 50 dex build (maybe), wondering if it's worth it at all to raise my stamina. I thought it'd be good to have more so I can roll around and attack more and stuff but it seems like I only get like 1 or 2 points per level. Anyone know if it's worth it?

I'd take it to 20-30, but then again I'm using big weapons so I can only swing twice and then barely have enough stamina to roll away.

Finding a good needly weapon (Deep axe is one of the first) lets you attack 3-4 times on base Knight stam. Ithyll (SP?) straight sword 4-5 times, that is enough to combo almost anything dead.

You can swing your sword or roll with only 1 stamina left on the bar. If that few points of stamina you added gets you one extra swing or one critical roll, it is worth it.

Using the Uchigatana having issues killing things with one combo. :(

The Lucerne you find near Emma has fair reach and a surprisingly quick 1H R1 . It can be used to poke or punish & is excellent with FWDroll-R1. Catches many things and players off-guard.
2HR2 is beautiful too.

You don't get much stamina per Endurance level, but stamina is one of the more important stats in the game. I'd boost it if possible.

The cap on Endurance is 40, after which you get even less per level. Most people don't seem to be going that high at all, at least until the rest of their build is complete.

well most of the stat upgrades are like 2% increases, when the stat is high. like you get 20-30 hp extra from vigor when you have 800 after vigor 20. although vigor 10-20 took me from like 500 hp to 800. that 2 points to stamina is kinda similar, but yeah it doesn't raise quite as fast from 10-20. probably there is a balancing reason behind it - like you're happy that enemies can only have 4 attack combos, not like 6-7.

Is this confirmed for 3 or are you just going by past Souls softcaps?

I read it on one of the wikis. I believe it's accurate, they've had other versions of the game to test before the PC release.

I got 40 Dex 25 str. Noticed Im not getting a damage boost every level when I go to rank up dex. Only 14 stamina though. Not really sure if I should be ranking up my dex or str more instead of stamina right now.
