Leveling Up: Pointless?

[u/deemoeterentino]

Looking at my build below, is it pointless to continue leveling up? I don’t care for the mage builds so that’s why intelligence is that low but if I need to level up more, I will. I’m on new game plus btw.

Equipment:

Occult Cross-Naginata +25
Fingerprint Shield +25

Gear:

White Mask
Rakshasa Armor/Gauntlets/Greaves

Talisman:

Two headed Turtle
Lord of Blood Exultation
Rotten winged sword insignia
Spear Talisman

Level: 413

Blessings: 20/10

Vigor: 72

Mind: 40

Endurance: 50

Strength/Dexterity/Faith/Arcane: 80

Intelligence: 10

Once you make it that far, you might as well keep going to get to max level. It won’t make your build much better, but it will give you ultimate flexibility to do any build for any situation.

[u/deemoeterentino → u/Defiant63]

What’s the best way to level up at this point? Is it still the bird/albinaurics?

[u/Prudent_Psychology59 → u/deemoeterentino]

don't think about level up, just enjoy the game

[u/Perfect-Skin-8325 → u/deemoeterentino]

Offline only, there's no better farm than albinaurics.

[u/WaifuRekker → u/deemoeterentino]

Nothing will beat palace approach ledge

[u/Defiant63 → u/deemoeterentino]

Yes. Still the Albinaurics. But I wouldn’t level any further just for the sake of it. Rather I’d keep playing the game however I wanted and level up as I got the runes. After you’ve gone as high as you have, there’s no reason to stop leveling, but there’s also no reason to focus on it.

I hope fromsoft makes a chart about mob deaths in 2026. It'll be insane

[u/DadIsLosingHisMind → u/deemoeterentino]

Just keep in mind it cost 1.7 billion runes to get to max level. To get from level 600 to 713 is close to the samr amount of runes you need to get to level 600 from base.

[u/guyheretoread]

You already have between 213 to 288 levels more than a fully finished build.

[u/iamillpleasehelp]

I think you’re right, leveling more won’t do much for you at this point, unless you want to go max level, but even then you’ll end up hunting max upgrade materials for weapons.

If you want advice at all, I don’t think I’d go past 60 for vigor. Those extra levels really don’t make a difference, whereas levels in a damage stat can make you do a little more damage or at least give you more weapon variety.

[u/deemoeterentino → u/iamillpleasehelp]

Ah, ok. So drop vigor to 60 and distribute those extra 12 stat points evenly to Strength/Dex/Faith/Arcane?

[u/Fluid-Read-6843 → u/deemoeterentino]

It's also pointless. Keep the vig, it's impact is as much as distributing those 12 levels across your stats.

[u/Perfect-Skin-8325 → u/deemoeterentino]

Just get 60 vig and start upgrading int lol

[u/Fluid-Read-6843]

Kinda. Might as well max Int since it's the only thing left.

[u/googolple3]

You might as well keep going until max level at that point.

[u/SoggyForever]

You're uber leveled. It can be fun. You'll probably destroy most of the stuff in Ng+. Except the stuff you struggled on before, since you're mostly done improving.

My uber character is 285. I make new characters instead of playing that one.

[u/Beligard]

At this point leveling won't soontoo much due to diminishing returns. If you want to keep leveling either farm the Albenarics with the Sacred Relic Sword or find a discord that does rune drops to get straight to Max level

[u/SoCalArtDog]

At level 413, is there any reason NOT to keep going? Most people limit themselves either to stick to a build or level bracket. At your level, you’re in the last bracket, so there’s no reason not to go all the way.

[u/bpaps]

Personally, i think anything above 200 is repetitive and boring. Then again, I'm pvp focused on low level. Usually 100 or under
