Dark Soul's: Prepare to Die Edition (PC)

Well I'm soul level 40 with most of my points stacked into endurance / vitality, my strength is 18, dex 12.. dunno weather to carry on pumping them or put more into strength?

What's your Endurance? I just pump that to 40-50 then concentrate on the others.

40.

Never take Endurance above 40 unless you are doing some very specific. All endurance does above 40 is increase Carry Weight as Stamina is capped at 160, as a result compared to other stats it becomes a really bad investment unless you specifically want very high carry weight. Even then there are rings which add masses of CR.
 
Ahh, mines no where near that yet.. its around 28/30 I think, my vitality is my highest stat

I always get at least 40 now, gives you max stamina. Going above it though continues to give you more equip weight, but your stamina stays the same...

Yeah forgot to say you only really need over 40 if you need the extra equip
 
I seem to have a thing with falling down waterfalls! I managed to do this on the Gaping Dragon boss fight, atleast it will be simple to recover my souls this time around though. :p

Lol happened to me on my first try, had no idea it was there :p
 
Ok thanks for the advice.

The same happened to me, Its hard to see the 'line' where the drop is on the hydra boss

Well I'm comparing my Zweihander +15 w/ 40 strength to a Zweihander +5 (Lightning) and the Lightning is outdamaging it by a hundred points, people on the DaS forums are telling me its useless going past 40 with a stat for scaling as you get 'diminishing returns' so I'm yet to see the use of stat scaling, can anybody spec me a better weapon? Although I think it'll be hard to find something +15 that outdamages the Zwei that has a good moveset.

What enemies did you use to compare damage?

Also keep in mind that the zweihander scales with both str and dex, so would benefit from some dex too.

For a pure strength build perhaps try a Demon Great Machete? Of course it wont do you much good if you don't like the moveset though.
