you are an oracle kkkk (all see)
I am really studying the possibility of playing DS.
I aborted the idea for DS3 due to having a lot of losing trophies.
Whenever I have time, I take a look at the options available for these games.
If this build allows me to play the game smoothly, I might try.
I understand that there are some trophies in the beginning and I should take on my own.
After these trophies you mentioned, could I use this build save to continue the rest of the game?
I would like thank you for your prompt kindness and polite way of helping.
If I really decide to play it, I'm afraid to bore you a little .... kkkkk
You wouldn't bore me. I'm happy to help.
As for this save, I haven't used it or any other Dark Souls save, but I just did a quick search to see what we had for this CUSA and I didn't see a starter save but I'm also not sure you need one given that the Save Wizard quick codes are really good. I am not sure where in the game this save is. There is a larger save set if you search the threads for CUSA08692, but the trophies are for ones you would get much later in the game, including ending trophies, weapons trophies, and trophies for the various types of magic. Not near the beginning of the game. If you really wanted to, you could use one of the ending saves, beat it and start a second playthrough using those builds, but you would pop one of the ending trophies out of order, plus the second playthrough is harder than the first and you won't even know the game yet.
So if you're looking to play the game - and this is one of my very favorites, and with Save Wizard you can definitely do it - I would use the Quick Codes to make your OWN starter save. First, make it past the tutorial area, to Lordran. You can also pop that trophy very close by you if you want once you reach Lordran - there are no enemies between you and that NPC. After the last boss in the tutorial area, pick up an item on the ground, going up the cliff (I think on your left) called "Soul of a Nameless Soldier" or something like that.
Once you're ready to make your starter save, go into Save Wizard and just max out your souls. That's it. You might actually be able to do it all in the tutorial area, before the first boss. I'm not sure. Some of the Souls games you have to get past the tutorial boss before you can level up. I just don't remember with this one. An easy way to check is, once you're at the very first bonfire of the game, in the tutorial area, check to see if the bonfire screen has an option for leveling up. If it does, then you can max out your souls with Save Wizard right then and there.
If you ever plan on taking that character online, though, a much safer way to do it would be to wait until after the tutorial, and instead of maxing out souls, max out that "Soul of a Nameless Soldier" and also max out the boss's soul from the tutorial boss, then use all EXCEPT ONE of each of those souls. That way you're manually increasing the amount of souls you have. The reason for that is the Souls games can tell when you mess with the souls you've earned, but they can't tell if you mess with most inventory items. If you go online, and the Fromsoft server sees that your souls have been modded, they can stop you from paying online in Dark Souls. It takes significantly longer to increase your level this way. Instead of getting to level 99 right away, you might take a couple of rounds of Quick Codes and adjusting the "Souls of a Nameless Solider" and boss souls - then using them, all but one - to get to level 30 or so - but there's really no need to go past level 50 anyway. It's up to you. If you do decide to go this way, know that as you play through the game, you'll get different items that give you more souls when you use them, better than that "Nameles Soldier" one, so you can also max out your level more gradually and still be ridiculously overpowered.
Type of weapon is really whatever you're most comfortable with. If you do stick with this Player Vs Player build, it uses a Falchion according to the description. Player Vs Environment (PvE) builds are usually better for playing through the story than PvP builds, but at really high levels it won't matter. If you want to use a particular type of weapon, like Enchanted, Magic, Fire, Chaos, there used to be a lot of debate on that but the most overall damage actually comes from normal weapons that have been maxed out (+15), unless you're facing something that's weak to fire, magic, lightning, something like that. But for the weapon itself, it's really your playstyle. Some people just play better with large, heavy weapons and some people are the opposite.
In the first area after the tutorial, you can actually get the weapon I tend to stick with for the entire game, but there are only a couple of enemies that drop it (the giant skeletons) and the drop rate is really bad, so it can take half an hour or so. It's the "Murakumo", and it's one of the best weapons for damage, and its moveset, speed and range all work for me personally but that all comes down to playstyle, again.
If you play it, hope you have fun. My biggest gaming wish is that they remaster Demons Souls, the game that preceded it. It's unpolished but man, it's good...
