Dark Souls is a mostly single player game at heart. If you want to experience the multiplayer elements you can't pick and choose which ones you get to experience. It's either stay un-embered and play solo 100% of the time, or ember and co-op and fight off the horde of reds. But really, the host has a huge advantage over an invader. At least 25 Endurance, 35 w/ Prisoner's Chain is suggested, as 40 Endurance is the soft-cap. 22 Vigor w/ Prisoner's Chain for the minimal 1,000 Health cap, or 27 without a ring. If your Vitality is too low for what you want to wear, I'd suggest using a Prisoner's Chain, Havel's Ring, or Ring of Favor, otherwise all spare levels should go it is quite worth it. Using str means using slower weapons, using slower weapons can mean getting hit more often. More Vit allows for heavier armor, which is more defense. Additionally, VIT as a stat provides a good deal of defense, as well. thisremindsmeofbacon.
Whatever Soul Level you feel you need. A lot of people stick to SL120 so they can use their character for meta-level duels/invasions/coop still. Others just keep leveling. Really depends on your playstyle. In terms of damage output, you'll probably end up somewhere in the SL250s-300s if you're just looking for more AR (for faster progression).
The game can be completed at level 1. Focus on learning the bosses' moves and how to react to them. That'll be more beneficial than levels ever will. Melody-Prisca • 5 yr. ago. I think skill is what you strive for, but with high levels skill doesn't matter for PVE.
Thanks in advance! Technically underleveled, but there is no over/underleveling in Souls games except for multiplayer matchmaking purposes. The reccomended level for Irithyll co-op/PvP, off the top of my head, is around 50 and average +5 weapons. Keeping in mind this is Irithyll, you'll no doubt get the New Gank City experience regardless, that
Here is a list of the (approximate) level ranges for the different areas. Keep in mind that from upgrade level +5 and higher, you can get matched with people 2 levels below you (e.g. +6 matches with a +4). Think about what level you usually are when you reach a certain area. Now add about 5 levels to that.
Dark hand is shut down by groups, You want range. Low level something something criticals w/ hornet ring and a poise dick swinging weapon for groups. But if you are good enough (which isnt hard at low levels) anything can work. build around prisoners chain, and get vitality to around 30 for max survivability. Raw weapon, resins, chaos dagger. exha Apr 28, 2016 @ 3:42am. Honestly, vigor shouldn't be leveled up past 27 as it hits its softcap. You should have around 1k HP unkindled and 1.3k HP when kindled. #1. Ahriman (Banned) Apr 28, 2016 @ 3:43am. Vitality is not health. With high vitality you can still roll normally with heavy gear. Vigor is health. I always leave it at 30. AY7Yu8r.
