      Poise is also not that important. Really more of a min max thing. It also has way less meaning in this game compared to previous ones. But anyway, just go nuts. Invasions and duels take a while to get used to, but i found they're very fun and rewarding once you get the hang of it and there's tons of people doing cosplay builds, or "lore friendly" characters that are their own creation but could theoretically fit into the world of Elden Ring.

    Hi cowboy I loved this guide, specially after IGN'S messy misinformation. I've beated the game 3 times and stopped leveling up at level 200 since I had no idea. I'm currently starting a new character to stop at level 125 and have more fun at PvP.
    My question is, what do you specifically do or use to level up new characters and start new builds with all weapons maxed out and son on? Would you kindly make a guide specifically for that or is it illegal? Asking because I legit have no clue. I've watched some nice PvP content lately and it seems to me that most streamers and youtubers dupe their items somehow and always have maxed out weapons. Loved the video, would love it even more if you could read this and let me know to stop being a noob hahaha.

    @Fightincowboy. I'm not sure about the ranges for connectivity. At 150, a random guy pulled me in that was level 122, so like how the caps are higher on stats, it looks like it might be a difference of +/- 30 on the connection...not sure, that's just what I experienced with that one instance.

    i tried to get something maybe in the just middle to be able to do everything with the black flame monk stuff to have 39 poise at least, medium roll lvl 150.
    Alexander shard, radagon icon, flock canva and erdtree favor +2 talismans.

    55 or 22

    50 or 60

    I can’t use two weapons so i will equip it if need with menu swap, got the godslayer greatsword as main weapon, i will also use Godskin peeler with the black flame tornado AOW or Guardian Swordspear with Black flame Tornado AOW.
    The vulgar militia shotel with the Sword dance flame art against shield.
    I have on me both seals (godslayer/gravestone) and for spells, golden vow, flame grant me strengh, black flame protection, blessing of the erdtree, black flame, black flame ritual, scouring black flame, ancient lightning strike, fortissax, placidusax for the aoe burst to finish player.

    great vid. the whole point of roleplaying games is to ROLE PLAY. if everyone was a 209 everyman running around with rivers of blood/moonveil and fingerprint while bloodhound stepping that would get boring so fast.
    there's so many hundreds of weapons in this game because there's something for everyone. i think the biggest thing new players struggle with is the idea that they can only win with broken meta shit, as opposed to the idea that almost everything at max upgrade level is good enough to win with. but here we see even the basic cleanrot sword kicking ass.

    Some things I wish they do in Elden Ring or other Soulsborne game If they come out:
    *"Transmog", that would make more interesting, more diversity in style without sacrificing Stats, maybe stats be linked in other items dont know
    *I think making some limitations on stats would be good, like if you put X amount of points o HP you would not be able to put too much on mind and vice versa, in a balanced way, that would make sense and be more imersive, and you would have to think more in builds, you would have to sacrifice some things, some things would not have that, like Strengh and HP could be high, but not Max Strengh and Dexterity for example, it one or the other, or a middle Ground, but a hybrid would never be as good in a specific stats as a focused build, if that makes sense
    *Would be good to have more Armor and weapons customization option, change collors, put things or remove, etc

      Anything past 300 is no longer a build. Past 300 you’re an everyman as CB calls it. Between 200-250 is a real nice spot since you can comfortably hit the final cap on some but not ALL stats allowing a build to still have some identity while not compromising survivability OR damage
