Minibosses you run into in the world don't count IMO, they're part of the mobs

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.

The new design of Profaned Flame looks neat!
Hex pyromancies look are sweet!

Anybody who wants to engage in jolly cooperation, please PM your PS4 gamer tag. I may get it on PC later. Don't own an XB1 yet.

So I'm considering this for my first build.

Knight — Level: 100

Vigor: 40

Attunement: 18 — Three slots; two for Sacred Oath, one for Darkmoon Blade

Endurance: 20

Vitality: 15

Strength: 20 — Washing Pole is 18, rounding it up to 20 with spare points.

Dexterity: 40

Intelligence: 9

Faith: 30

Luck: 7

I'm also considering the Cleric because as of now the extra points in Vitality don't seem that helpful.

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.

To me, it looks more like the guy sucks at the game, rather than the hexes being under powered.

Also, lol @ that pope cosplay.

You could be right..affinity still looks much slower then in 2 and 1.

Still pumped only 8 days to go.

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.

What class will you start as?

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.

Actually, I've made up my mind. I'm going with a Estoc Havel-Shield build.

Level: 100

Vigor: 44

Attunement: 6

Endurance: 20

Vitality: 11

Strength: 40

Dexterity: 40

Intelligence: 8

Faith: 9

Luck: 11

Ign gives it a 9,5....niiiiceeee.
