Out of the Blue

I woke up this morning with a bit of a cough and some tightness in my chest. This has cleared up over a few hours, so I'm not sure if I am fighting a cold or not. I haven't had an actual cold in several years now, but after reading that not getting colds can be a sign of a poor immune system, rather than a strong one, I can't decide whether I am rooting for getting sick or staying well.

yea.....i need to move forward, but no one told me you can up your stats by buying them from that chic in Nexus! DAMNIT!!!!!!!! I suck. Probably should just start over.

How did you think you improved your stats?

Anyways, STR/DEX are mostly useful only in getting to the minimum level required to wear that weapon you're eyeing. END is super important to any melee fighter (and VIT to a lesser extent). LCK is right out unless you are going to wield the blueblood sword (which I have a character doing. It's extremely powerful). There is also a strong melee build with super-high FTH (that I also have) who uses Blessed weapons. And then obviously you only want a minimum MGC or INT to cast any specific spell you really want (unless you are going pure caster, which is difficult as a starting class).

The game isn't AS difficult as it's made out to be; it's just unforgiving. Once you master dodging and/or blocking and get proficient with your weapon type, things get pretty easy. It's also possible to easily farm for souls on the second level of stage 4. It's not required, but for low-level characters it can really help. The biggest thing you have to do is TAKE.IT.SLOW. Don't even sprint if you don't know exactly what (or who) is ahead of you. Don't rush into ANY enemy thinking you're infinitely superior to it.
