You need a lot of health with builds like this)Įndurance: 27 (with light armor you don't need much, but this is a ninja so I put it at 27) Vigor: 40 (needed because your armor is going to be low. Ring of Blades +2 stacks with backstabbing (Flynn's ring does not add backstabbing damage or so I've read) You can also ditch this ring if you don't care about pyromancy.ħ. Needs Southern Ritual Band +2 so you can equip spells. Uses slumbering dragoncrest ring to make backstabbing easier.Ħ. Equip dark drift (it weights just 3 units) and strong attack through shields.ĥ. I think you can stunlock opponents who have zero poise (needs verification)Ĥ. Power stance Mytha's Bent Blades for Toxic buildup. 61 equipment load (points) for good Flynn's Ring Damageģ. Rolling and adaptability is very key for ninjas. The armor is quite light, but that's the point.

It's a pretty versatile build, and the best part is it does all this with just 30% equipment load for better rolling. This build doesn't use a shield but could if you wanted. I wanted to make a build that relied on rolling, backstabbing, poisoning, parrying, etc.
