So i will start!

 

Blood builds are pretty strong!

And that's just with the Uchigatana that i got at the start of the game,

Upgraded to +10 and changed the affinity to blood.

 

If i had the Rivers of Blood katana it would have been even better.

I just obtained it and am keen to try it out as I happen to have arcane as a decent stat. Its weapon skill reminds me of Sekiro's mortal draw. I quite liked the katana in the beginning, but quickly switched off of it once I found Bloodhound's Fang (mildly OP :P) and sadly the katanas that I found required decent INT which I didn't have as a mainly DEX/STR build. I'm currently switching between power-stancing Bloodhound's Fang + Morgott's Cursed Sword and Malenia's blade.

frustrasions

At this juncture the instakill AoE attack of the Deathrite Bird in the second to last area that is extremely hard to judge how it will come out so you can dodge it.

tips

You can switch maps between underground and overworld with R3/right stick. No that totally did not take me 50 hours to realise and I totally wasn't taking an elevator ride every time I needed to switch between them.

I use Uchigatana + Meteoric Ore,and sometimes switch the Meteoric Ore with a longbow.

The new update nerfs a lot of things really hard...

Even my blood build!

Luckily i installed the update in a sandbox so i still have the older version as well but the downside is offline only and no bug fixes,and other desirable updates.

 

It takes a lot of time to make a build,and they just ruin all of that hard work on a whim.

 

And blood builds are strong but not op...

There are stuff that are a lot more powerful than a Bloody Slash.

On the other hand they fixed Rivers of Blood,so maybe i will install the update and use that instead of my Blood Ucigatana.
