    Hi everyone! Today we're looking at some creative ideas for character builds that might inspire you. We also have a discord server now, it's pretty chaotic at the moment but I'm learning as we go along! :'D - discord.gg/sunlightblade

    Smartness Immune only becomes an even greater nightmare when he invades as a Spear. You can reach as high as 99.143% magic absorption.

      What is the highest fire/dark absorption you can get? If we could find a way to make The Ringed City even harder for Pyro builds, I'm all for it xD

    • @Dragonborn007
      @Dragonborn007 7 ปีที่แล้ว +29

      I don't remember exactly what the max absorption was for fire, it was probably about a few percent less than the highest magic absorption, but if you went for that you would need way more Vitality than my build. The dark absorption I think would be second lowest, barely surpassing Lightning because there aren't enough magic buffs to raise them higher.

    The sixth one was my favourite. I really love the idea of using only magic-summoned weapons. And there's actually some great diversity in those. There is ranged attack with the arrow, sweep and large moveset, long ranged forward attack... all in all it's a great build.

      It didn't really felt like a dragon form. It even was called Black Dragon armor even though it was more golden than black. And the fire breathing made no sense. How can you breath fire through a helmet?

    • @ganiistheninja7501
      @ganiistheninja7501 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Sorry, that reply was directed toward Mania, not you. Using weapons that aren't part of the meta, is unique, but not creative. See my point?

    • @ManiaMac1613
      @ManiaMac1613 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Maybe I should clarify: I don't know what criteria SLB uses to judge his submissions, but when I hear 'unique builds' I think of builds that are only possible in one game as opposed to the other, so I didn't really agree with some of these submissions. For example, the one at the beginning didn't really strike me as all that unique because while it's definitely different than what you would normally see, it's not really all that special in terms of the equipment he's using or how he's using it. The Dragonoid Knight, on the other hand, was very unique since it not only utilized equipment and items unique to DS3, but combined them in a way I've never seen before. I guess it comes down to personal taste, so feel free to have your own opinions on this, since 'unique' is a bit subjective in this context.

    • @thekillers1stfan
      @thekillers1stfan 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Build variety leads to other things. it leads to more thought being put into your build, it leads to wider set of options when it comes to weapons/movesets that you can reasonably try out, it leads to more strategy in fights since you have to fight different builds in different ways, it leads to the fights being more than mashing R1 and then backing away, and poise had a reasonable and important role in the combat. That being said I do know that the hitboxes (particularly for Katanas) were pretty bad and the Magic was complete bullshit for certain builds but even with that the DSII Red arena is where the best fights in any of the Dark Souls games took place.

    for the 10min treshold that you love so much for the extra Ad revenue! The longer the video the better! Don't forget to mix the 3 darksouls game if you can't hit the 10 minute tresholds, you can't miss that extra revenue!

    @sancturillore 7 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    "Vlad the Impaler" "not really sure why this is based on a vampire".
    The historical Vlad III, known as the Impaler, was obviously not a vampire. Back then, and even today, he's regarded as the greatest hero of Romania, in ever. Outside of his country, he was back then demonized both by propaganda and by his own actions. He impaled thousands of enemies and spies, etc, but not his people. He stood with his very small army against the invading Ottoman Empire, and became the first to actually succeed to stop them. He couldn't have succeeded had he done it the normal way, so he instead went with a campaign of fear. He made other countries fear him so much that they wouldn't dare mess with his people, and due to him being demonized, that fear lasted beyond his death.
    However, the stories of him being a vampire ONLY came around with Bran Stoker's Dracula, and there never was a single mention of that ever before. Heck, Bran Stoker didn't even know Vlad's history that much, he admitted that all he knew was the demonized reputation, but didn't know close to anything about the historical figure.
    This build is obviously based on impaling with lances and spears, not on being a vampire. (The arrows here are technically closer to spears, and the mace being used is closer to a gigantic stake on which people(or their heads) would be affixed to show them on the side of the road.)

    • @sancturillore
      @sancturillore 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Added trivia, Vlad once made an invading army believe he had thousands on thousands of troops when he actually had just a few hundreds and had simply made the invading army believe a forest to be Vlad's troops(the trees cut down, the stumps with clothes and armors, etc.)

      Sunlight mentioned Vlad III not 45 seconds into the clip. You need to pay attention more. Failing to pay attention may actually get you killed one day, you know.

    • @emperorleachicus2199
      @emperorleachicus2199 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Trent Stines yes, he does say “the costume does have a great resemblance to Vlad III, or Vlad the impaler”. I did hear this. But, using the fact this is in reference to the costume alone, and his previous statement “I’m not sure why this build is based on a Vampire”, it is clear that he simply has associated the name Vlad III with the Vampire character based on him, and does not know about the real historical figure, as if he did, he would know exactly why the build used spears, to emulate Vlad the Impaler’s love of impaling people on Pikes.
      So, as you can see, you need to pay attention to all of the information as a whole, and make a logical deduction from it, not just hear a name and assume that he knows what he’s talking about, disregarding the clear evidence to the contrary presented earlier.
      Failing to pay attention to the situation as a whole may actually get you killed one day, you know.

    • @emperorleachicus2199
      @emperorleachicus2199 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Siegmeyer is better than Solaire yes, because obviously knowing what you’re talking about and making a “joke” in such a way that you just sound like you don’t know what you’re talking about, and then going on to say a second time that Vlad III or Vlad the Impaler is a Vampire is just the simplest solution.
      The fact that he states with a genuine questioning tone about the fact it’s a spear based build, and then says that the Vampire-like aesthetic fits Vlad III or Vlad the Impaler (because here, that’s all he’s saying, that it looks like a vampire outfit) (see my previous reply on this comment) both make it explicitly clear that he just thinks Vlad III was the Vampire’s name, which, to use your Occam’s Razor point, is a much more straightforward answer than somehow suggesting his confusion was a joke, and that when he says “Vlad III or Vlad the impaler” about the vampiric appearance, that means he actually knows about the real historical figure.
      It’s much more likely to just be a simple misunderstanding than some kind of elaborate joke with no punchline or payoff.
      All this was meant to be was just an informative comment to make sure more people don’t fall into the same trap of associating the name of the real guy with the fictional character, I love SunlightBlade’s videos and this is more just to be informative.
      People don’t need to keep getting up in arms defending him, I’d just rather he didn’t make a fool of himself and potentially misinform any more people who may not know who Vlad III was, perpetuating the cycle of mis-associating his name with Dracula (the character, not his other nickname)

    To note for Karmic Justice: right now it's bugged and uses the right hand weapon's magic adjustment (or if it's not a catalyst, the magic damage) as a base (while spells usually use the spellbuff of the catalyst that was used to cast them as a base). Meaning this pretty much only works because he has MLGS on the right hand. Trying to use KJ alongside another weapon will leave a lot to be desired
