    Poison stuff:
    Mytha’s bent blade is probably the coolest poison weapon (im sure an infusion on a regular weapon is better though) and can be powerstanced for really fast poison procs.
    Rat covenant ring and sanctum gauntlets makes poison buildup faster.
    Since poison damage doesn’t scale with anything a fun idea is to put less points into str/dex and more into other stats to add variety to the build (assuming you are relying only on poison damage)

    I feel like you going through the process of getting the weapon is the better format for your kind of videos. We know how strong the weapon usually is, hence why you have to go to DLC or to a late game area/boss, so the process to get it and your route for materials is always so nice to see every time.

  • @logans2001
    @logans2001 11 месяцев назад +2

    Important things for poison builds:
    1. Poison Mist and Toxic Mist pyromancies and Dark Fog Hex are your ranged poison/toxic buildups
    2. Gavlan has infinite poison throwing knives and rotten pine resin when he gets to Doors of Pharos
    3. Rat covenant ring increases your poison buildup
    4. Dex increases poison buildup scaling on weapons
    5. Black Scorpion Stinger rapier from Tark in shaded woods after killing Freja (or killing him and buying it from Melentia) is a non-scaling poison weapon that's free to infuse with Raw if you aren't going Dex or with more Poison for buildup

  • @rotuslotus

    Great video bro as always, love to see some good ol ds2!
    Also idk if its been said already but typically damage type splitting performs worse even if the damage number in your stats is higher.
    100 physical will deal more than lets say 110 physical/lightning because the enemies resistance will apply to both dmg types.
    Thats the reason why using magic buffs and magic infusion in combination is better. Sticking to 1 type gets most damage in practice (of course if they arent super resistant)
    Keep it up dude!

    Got a question for you yaz, what do you think is the strongest build you’ve done for one of these videos? I’m not sure myself, but my favorite was duel smelter sword.

    You can use the sanctuary mace for the poison build, its easy to farm and power stance.
