Dark Souls 3is the Dark Souls of Dark Souls.
Here’s what each boss soul provides.
One thing you’ll probably want to do is learn how to level up properly.
We’ve added some more information to help guide you in making your perfect DS3 builds.
At44 Vigor, extra levels provide less than 10 HP.
At 44 Vigor you will have1,260 HP.
Increasing your Vigor to 99 will only increase that value to 1,400.
30 Attunement provides 5 slots, while 40 provides 6 and so on.
Endurance
40
Endurance’s main quality is to upgrade yourStamina.
After 40 Endurance, yourStamina growth will halt severely, as will yourresistance growths.
At 40 Endurance you will have 160 Stamina, and at 99 you will have only 170 Stamina.
At 40 your Equip Load will be 80and yourbase Defense will be 135.
Going up to 99 will improve your Equip Load to 139 but your Defense to only 177.
When wielding a weapon in two hands, your Strength is multiplied by 1.5 automatically.
This means that if you use two hands for one weapon, thesoft cap is lowered to 27.
Of course, if you’re wielding it in two hands, you’d only need 40 Strength.
Dexterity also affectsspellcasting speed, however, andthis will soft cap at 50 instead.
This is worth considering for optimizing mage builds, but 40 should be more than enough.
Intelligence
Magic damage and defensescale well with Intelligenceuntil you hit 40, thoughsome Sorceries require 50 Intelligenceto be equipped.
A Faith of 45 is required for casting the strongest Miracle in the game.
Item Discovery is not affected by any caps.
Therefore for treasure-hunting purposes, Luck is useful all the way to the hard cap of 99.
If your build isn’t working out, don’t lose hope!
There’s a way to respec your character in Dark Souls 3.
