How Should I Continue My Descent In Dark Souls 3?
I always make no less then three characters in any Dark Souls game.
But an underlining role playing theme has emerged for my first PvE character in each title.
You see in Demon's Souls I went with the Temple Knight. I used Tower Shield, Faith Magic, and Spear or Halberd (Lucerne).
In Dark Souls I went with the Wandering Knight motif. Elite Knight armor, Claymore and Parry Shield.
Then for DS2 I liked that Headless Mercenary armor, using whatever I fancied for melee as well as crossbows.
See the emergent pattern?
Faithful Knight > Lost Knight > Sell Sword
My character started out in the light and has been loosing his faith with each title.
So how should I proceed in DS3?
Should I go with Thief, turning from unscrupulous Mercenary to lowly miscreant? Becoming nothing more than a bottom feeder.
Or Should I go with Assassin, Waging War from the shadows against those in the Light? Coveting what I once had.
Update: Thx and nice job to everyone who put together A DS style bio. It's exactly what I was going for.
I feel a path of corruption or to a Dark Phantom is more in line with the Souls Series overarching theme of descending into madness. As such I will likely not be taking a path to Redemption.
Keep the ideas coming.

1 ReplyComplete your transformation to the Dark Side. Sick of politics, soul searching, and tainted brotherhood; you become disillusioned and no longer fight for ideals, nations, beliefs, or money. Bitter resentment rises because of the uselessness and stupidity of those who do fight for such foolishness. As your resentment becomes anger, so does your anger into hatred. There is no humanity left in you, only blood lust.

1 ReplyI would say a wandering swordsman would be the best. After being through the motions with both he light and dark you are finally sick of them both, preferring to dedicate yourself to none and using them all. Your allies are speed, agility and adaptability. Having a spear in one hand and a decent sword or crossbow in the other hand feels natural. After wandering the world several times over you know to always expect the unexpected, to never hide behind a shield and always be prepared for everything. Dual wielding is your friend and having a large arsenal of on hand and off hand weapons is your real strength. Your tool belt is filled with a wide assortment of knives, explosives, bolts and plenty of pine resins. Each weapon has a specialty, be it piercing through bone, slashing a foe to ribbons and letting them bleed out, burning them with a blazing sword and other elements with their wide variety of resin buffs, enchantments or titanite infusions. If it is alive, dead, or undead you will be ready to take advantage of it's weakness.

4 RepliesBe the redeemed knight or whatever you wanna call it. you fell from grace and nothing is ever gonna be the same you know this you still use knight armor but you no longer use a lot of miracles, you're also not as picky about your weapons.You know you can never undo the things you've done, you know. You know that no matter how hard you try that no matter what you do your sins will never be erased your mistakes never fixed your faith will never be restored...you know, but still you push on regardless of all you know in hopes of putting something back together out of the broken peices, trying to restore or rekindle the shattered mess you call your life so that it's not just embers sitting in a dying bonfire in hopes that in the end you can finally do something right, finally make the right choice finally redeem yourself but never to the full grace you once held just a being who's finally at peace with themselves and the choices they made.

7 RepliesOnce a knight, that training never fails you Miscreant and shadow lurker doesn't seem like the appropriate path one would take over time with a knights training. You can go: redemption knight. A quest to redeem your honor. You go back to basics with a straight sword. Relearn your purpose and the yearn for for what you once had. Old looking armor but the sword must be basic. Mix in a sell sword weapon as a constant remembrance of what you went through. Or Fallen knight: you wanted redemption, and your old foes offered you salvation and whispered dark things into your ear (see raime and Alva knight) you are a formidable bruiser and you invest in magic purely for the sake of harm. You maximize damage and status effects to aid you. In dark souls 3 the new "frostbite" mechanic will suit you well here and you should buy the frost sword. You embrace the demons you kill. You invade often.
