Lulz just checked a walkthrough cause I was curious how many times can you cast soul arrow or heavy soul arrow with the new mana system from the begin.
Guy was able to set off 1 soul arrow and 6 heavy ones and mana was still at half.
I think you can use 24 normal or 12 heavy in this case.(Might be wrong though)
Still that's a pretty strong starter set.Imo
Way better then in Ds1 or 2 as far as I can remember.
Also in the first 15 minutes you can also get 2 blue estus each fills up about 70% of the mana bar.

I watched a few game play vids and it looks like leveling up is going to be difficult as souls gained were low. I hope FromSoft makes a change to increase souls gained.
Kind of, I haven't used my hex build in a minute. Either way, he was just standing there like a boob while the other guy was dodging it, instead of putting pressure on him and trying to get a few hits in, while also hampering your opponents ability to dodge the spell.

I haven't decided my build yet, I always start with Deprived so I don't waste any stats I don't want. I usually start with a typical sword and board style, then I branch out when I get more comfortable with the mechanics.

I'll probably go for the Estoc instead of the Washing Pole. It seems more reliable.
There are a number of problems with a so-called hexer in this game.
Casting speed relies on Dexterity, meaning that in order to be an effective caster you pretty much have to invest heavily in Dexterity. You then need to divide your levels into both Intelligence and Faith to access more than a few hex-spells, meaning that you'll do very little damage with either. And that's not accounting for Attunement, Vigor and Endurance you'll be needing, or the Strength requirements for your weapons.
It seems more like the hex-spells were added as an elemental variety to the three casting classes.
