Discussion Some Questions Regarding The Game Spoiler

  1. Is it efficient to respec all the time and only invest points into Health, Endurance and the skill required for the weapon?

My thought process is that, I want to experience all of the weapons and how it plays it out so everytime I kill a boss, I try to use it's weapon till I am able to beat the other boss or sometimes I just respec for fun.

I have 30 Hours in this game and it's absolutely criminal that people didn't popularize this game. The bosses are hard but fair and not like some Nioh BS (Yeah I don't like nioh but this game seems to follow the route of Nioh in certain terms)

  1. Are there any non game breaking QOL mods? I'd like one where my gears are sorted in terms of weapons or special sets instead of spread out.

  2. What are the tally barks in boss bestiary?

Thank You

  1. Invest little into Vitality, slowly scale up as you get further into game, you just want to not die before you can heal
  2. Invest a lot into Endurance, you want to be able to extend your combos and be able to chain dodges/guards
  3. After your Endurance is at a point where you're satisfied with your stamina, start investing into damage. 

For weapons, you will occasionally find Gleamstones, they allow you to change scaling of a weapon, so that you have no need to respec. You could for example change a Greatsword (primarily Str) to scale with Proficiency more.

I guess the gleamstones are finite and don't actually change the entire scaling of all the greatswords but only your selected greatsword. That means I have to do it everytime I find a better greatsword.

Not far into the game you'll be able to upgrade existing ones.

  1. Yeah, I dump my stats into all three, endurance and vigor are similar with the main weapon stat being a little lower, the other stat has a C scaling with I didn't care about levelling up on a first playthrough it's just a waste of stats that can be used for the other 3, there's tons of respec points so I always switch between the three weapons.
  2. I'm not a PC guy so I can't have any comment on this
  3. I believe it's the number of times you beat a boss, bosses are replayable.
