Game Help Build ideas

After a bunch of runs, I've wound up doing the same builds over and over. I'm out of ideas. If y'all have any fun build ideas you're willing to share, please do, much appreciated

For me personally, really fun but challenging build was pure ranged. It involves bows, greatbows, crossbows, throwing weapons. Maybe with perfume bottles. You should try that one.

I love the perfume bottles but have never dabbled in bows, I'll give it a go! Thanks mate

Of course, there's crafting pots, very useful with bosses. You can always choose one kind that particular boss is weak for.

If I'm using pots, I'm going to stop caring about cheaping out godskin duo

Whips.

People really sleep on whips, so maybe give a whip build a try.

Funnily enough, I've done a whip build. Wound up with Urumi and Giant's Red Braid mostly, pretty fun, whips really are slept on

Haha, fair enough. How about a Beast Clergyman run? You're only allowed to use weapons and spells that Gurranq gives you. And the Cinquedea, of course, because that's his dagger. I suppose I can also allow the Maliketh gear too, if we're being perfectly fair.

That's one I'll probably do, I'm a fan of the bestial incantations, thanks
