Ds3 was my first souls game and i was bored so I decided that i would do a pure strength build. Like literally, i only leveled vigor 4 times and never leveled up a single stat aside from strength. I thought i was smart

Funny how that's the best starting class for my dexfag Lucerne build and I started playing as deprived, at least unga bunga is always the funniest way to start imo

A good class with an adequate weapon for hitting hard. Decent amount of hp and enough fp to use warcry regularly. Your only concern for the first areas is your stamina management.

played around with a character planner, if you plan on using the heaviest weapons and armors you can find, and overall want to become a walking tank, warrior is your choice, reaches the requirement for those types of weapons the fastest among all classes. if you know what you are going for.
in other words, this is the class to pick if you wanna fight like havel.

This guy expected to wake up on a cart to Helgen but ended up in Cemetery of Ash instead.
Overall a worse knight. Lack in dexterity, 0 attunement slots and lower vitality leaves you with alot less options without some hefty stat investments. Missing a 100% block shield and the slow swinging axe at the start can lead to frustration with Gundyr and on the walls. It excells later but newcomers should avoid choosing this class.

I just started playing because my friend told me about the ringed paired great swords (He knows I like duel wielding!) and I am having a blast. But it seems like the weapons I want to use are too heavy but I don't want to invest too many points in my vitality if I won't have enough to increase my strength and dex enough to use them. How many levels can I gain so I can I know how much I can divide between strength, dexterity, and vitality?

If you're starting the game, play this or knight. It's a great, strong, balanced class to introduce you to the game. It's fun too.

For optimization purposes, the warrior class is of course the best class for a pure STR build. But the warrior as also a relative high luck. So this class fits very well to STR/LCK builds, and also quality-LCK (STR/DEX/LCK). Finally, if you want to go on an original STR/INT/LCK build, this class is also the way to go (why not a Crystal spiked mace user).

If you know you're going for health and strength or anything along that line then choose this class, cause If you're planning on using buffs on your weapon with out the need of bundles and such then your stupid because of the lack of Intelligence, faith, and attunement slots.

Deprived or git gud. On a serious note, it is the only starting class (other then Knight for the most part) that has no weaknesses and it is the only class that cannot be disputed due to it starting with high stats (all 10) AT LEVEL ONE (YES, LEVEL ONE) vs. all other classes starting at high(er) levels making it take longer to make a specific build as well as (to an extent) usually having undesirable point distribution in creating VARIED builds. Let's say I'm a Warrior and I stop at the 120 meta as a Strength build but find it boring after a while and want to go Sorcery. UH-OH! I have a whopping 16 strength, the lowest starting attunement in game, as well as low Intelligence. I just chose the worst class in game for variable viability to use ANY form of magic in game due to pidgeon-holing myself to a (super) specialized starting class with wasted points. Not with Deprived, I'll just reset everything back to default (aka 10 in everything) and LITERALLY BUILD from LEVEL ONE (1) my perfect Pyromancer, my perfect Strength build or perfect Luck build. I can't go wrong my starting stats & level distribution are perfect to become all at any meta range with no drawbacks (granted Knight would likely do better for ridiculously low metas like 60 and 90). All in all, the "best" starting class is ultimately up to personal preference but when talking 120 Meta it's ultimately either Deprived or Knight (Unless it's a Luck build Knight has the most crap luck stat if I remember right)

I tried various classes, Warrior is the only one I have yet to die on and basically smash face everywhere I go. Gonna try to get him magic to support himself and weaken enemies to make them even easier to slaughter. Wow, that makes me sound bad.

Us Warriors do great in many direct confrontations with just our Mighty Hammers and Axes, and Heavy Shields, and Thick Plate Armor... We are also capable of medium range with Crossbows and Firebombs. We may not be good mages, and may not be trained to use graceful movements to whittle our foes down, but still we continue onwards with our sturdy arms and armor, and backed by wills of iron. Intelligent people may think of us as simple brutes, but we are great stories inside of a simple looking book cover... that is to say, don't judge us just by our outwards appearance, or if you do... well, that will just prove you were the bigger fool.

"...lowest total of Attunement, Intelligence and Faith"
The very true form of No-*****-Given-Class.

Plays more agile than the knight, still with high damage and high starting stamina

Just started playing this game on PC and I'm having trouble with my warrior build. I'm grinding in Lothric to try and build my stats, but I can't change weapons, and trying to take on the wyvern would be much easier if i could snipe him with the crossbow to start. Any advice would be appreciated.

"Interestingly Enough It Saves You 4 More Points If You're Doing A Hollow Build Unlike The Thief Which Is Focused Around Bleed/Poison Luck And Dex Build" okay now ***** off

...with 18/18 STR/DEX investment for a wider array of tools.Pump 30 into luck, rock a Hollow Lothric Shield and a Hollow Lothric Sword, spend the rest on VIG/END/VIT according to your preference, use rings like Chloranty, Ring of Favor, Estus and Knight's Slayer and you got yourself an amazing Aldritch Covenant lvl 70 character that will absolutely destroy in PVP.Don't forget about carthus rouge tho, vital for playing aggresive and beating shield users.Great for co-op PCP & PVE aswell.If you just want to use Anri's Deprived or Knight are sligthly better because you'll only need 10 DEX and maybe 12 or 13 STR for a 100% dmg reduction shield that can parry.

I've been playing soul series ever since they came out and I can tell you pure strength always was the best imo. I played every class but I have to be honest, i had the most of success as an warrior. Try this: rush for 99. Don't do anything for next 2-3 days, just farm souls at the same place with S. Ring for an addition (I didn't not mention other items because they aren't so ez to be found). Once you hit str 99, go for dexterity. Once you hit those 2 on 99, just try farming any enemies that could 1 shot you. It will become one shooting party lmao. But seriously, try that out, you can one / two shot most of the bosses.

Nice starting class if you were planing on a pure strength build. I'm thinking of using this one or the knight, probably this one since I like high damage outputs

Im gonna start my 1st playthrough with this class. Pretty easy switch from early str build to late game dex build. Level up my strenght to 24 to get the butchers knife. Then all non vgr, end, vit points to dex to get it to 20 as farron greatsword needs 20 dex. Btw anyone can answer to this question: Farron greatsword has C/A scaling at +5 so would sharp infusion on it make any sense as it would be -/S scaling apparently? Strenght would remain at 24 (could be lowered to 18 by respeccing with pale tongue as farron str req is 18) and dex could be pushed to about 40-50.

Finally made up my mind. Warrior it is and the Claymore my weapon of choice. ^_^

To be real, I think this is the bandit we've always needed, but never got. I'm impressed by the starting stats, considering it's better than the knight in terms of damage, and good armor to boot. I hope that battleaxe is cooler than it's been in 1 & 2.
Highest VigorHighest StrengthHighest Endurance It's for PURE Strength Build

High dex two handed weapons will take a while to qualify for, but this will be the clear choice to rush to the heavy, high damage str weapons.

This class's character design probably comes from Anglo-Saxon warriors from 7th-mid 8th century. Look at Northern Warrior's helmet, it's probably inspired from Anglo-Saxon warrior's famous Coppergate Helmet. Also the clothes they're wearing is more similar to Anglo-Saxon warriors than Vikings.
strong good.
