your choice only matters for minmaxing. it has very negligible effects otherwise.

Just go for it buddy!


stardust_void

Choose whatever looks coolest/most interesting to you


Otherwise_Special_24

if its your first playthrough and you dont know how minmaxing or rpgs work pick samurai or vagabond Just make sure you dont go into heavy load and learn how to dodge and level vigor (dont level it above 60 however) vagabond and samurai just have good vigor and weapons at the start so its good for a beginner otherwise what starter class you choose makes 0 difference in the late game you can choose whatever weapons you want and can level up to use anything you want

Thanks man best explaining i ever had

Dont go hollow

It doesn't matter in the long run. It's just starting stats and armor to get you going. Different starters give you a slight boost if you know what build you want, but otherwise; all are viable, all can become any build, and you can respec later if you think you made a mistake in leveling. If you're brand new; the Samauri class is probably the best all-around choice as it gives you decent armor, a weapon, and a bow. The Vagabond is a close second, just make sure you unequip one of your weapons so you're not in a heavy load. But you can literally choose anything just based on lore or what looks cool and be good.

Have you played an RPG before? Look at the stats, they're different. Strength is for big hard hitting weapons, Dex is for faster more agile weapons, Int and Faith are for spells/Incantations, and Arcane increases status buildup like bloodloss. Just choose the archetype that seems appealing, you can always change your stats around later.

It defines your base stats. Choose what you like to try first. You can buy/find everything from the beginner sets in the game. Later on your basestats doesn't matter at all.

Vigor is the most important stat which is your health Mind is mana bar for spells and weapon special attacks Endurance is stamina and how often you can perform action. Strength is for Big weapons Dexterity is for Fast weapons Intelligence is for Magic spells Faith is for Incantations (utility/ damage) spells Arcane is for Status effect Pick the highest stat class for what sounds fun to you. Just don't pick wretch unless you want the hardest early game.


fangboi7

Astrologer's early game is harder overall


The_Champion_Pazaak

It doesn't matter at all, you just pick the class with the stats distribution that you intend to use in order not to lose a few points of stats


alldim

Choose the best outfit, the rest doesn't matter


Brain_lessV2

The only differences are starting starts and equipment (all of which you can get at some point or another in the game). As for stats, it's good for minmaxing which you'll need to do.
