Holy fuck how are you supposed to kill the 2 crocodogs to get the FaP ring? It's beyond retarded. They come both at the same time. Always. Even when I manage to delay 1 on a pillar pulling only the other for the first 10 seconds the other fucker always manages to join the first before I kill it. I literally died on these 2 motherfuckers more than any other boss in this game.
Shield+sword? No. Shield+ultra greatsword? nope. Greatshield no dodging + UGS? Nope.
Literally nothing works. Fuck this place so hard. Fuck you Miyazaki you dick for even imagining a place like this.
Over 40 tries and counting.... with a +8 zwei, 40 END 27VIG 50STR.

edit: 43rd try, got 1 of them down. + Show Spoiler [gear name] + No rolling, only blocking and tanking hits, trying to outheal the damage. Fuckers. It actually took less stamina to block a bite than to dodge it rolling. rofl.

Could you post your stats and gear (including spells) that you use on pyro? I'm pretty interested since you'd need to put stats in both faith and intelligence to get damage up high which leaves you with less stats for str/dex and pretty weak weapons.

If you go for level 130 you will still be able to play those level 120 players right?
So why bother with level 120 in the first place?

I use these builds for PvP but they crush PvE also so I don't change anything. My SL120 beat NG++ pretty easy.
Like stated above my main spell is Chaos Fireorb, only thing you need for PvE. There are Five different weapons I've used with pyro. The hand axe, estoc, Witches locks, Astora Greatsword, and most recently the Gargoyle spear. You really only use your main hand weapon in PvP to switch it up and be tricky. So now into the Stats. Faith and Int are always 40/40. dex and strength only to weapon req. The hand axe, estoc and greatsword chaos infuse. The whip and spear are almost just used to switch it up into their weapon arts. I go up to 24-28 in attunement, base vitality and luck. endurance and vigor depends on the how many points I have after whats needs to go into dex and strength.

So a handaxe build would look like this (start pyro class)

Astora would look like this

Both of these are contrary to your belief that not investing into dex and str make your weapons weak. This is because of chaos infusion, now they scale with faith and int.

Rings I use are always Witch's, Swamp, Fire Clutch, and Sage. As for my gear keep it under 30% and you should almost never get hit. You have the advantage at range almost all the time so keep it that way.

Could you give some pointers how to level up a pyro? Like, do you mainly hack things with the axe, do you use a bow or is it just blasting things with spells? How you live until you get chaos fireball and so on. I'm a complete nablet in this game and have trouble with just leveling and getting on with the story. I swear sometimes there's input lag or something and I sit there hammering the dodge button and still get stunlocked to shit I liked the hand axe moveset so I'm down for doing a build with that.

also is there a button to swap between arrows you have equipped?

The easy way to level every class is rush ahead to power up then go back to clear bosses. I kind of take a speed run approach mostly using fireball. So what I do is use the hand axe with lightning resin to down first boss. Then I rush right to Abyss Watchers. On the way there I pick up my rings save the pyro guy, and grab all the estus shards and bones. When you go through swamp grab pyro tomb and switch to fire orb. In about 1h30m I'm level 30 ready to do abyss watchers. After that I rush right to Chaos Fireorb then go back and kill all the bosses I skipped.

Stats at 30

How does roll speed work in 3? I remember it changing 1-2 and I honestly have a hard time eyeballing it on tests.
