since poise doesnt matter and defense barely does anything, vitality is only good if you want to dress up in heavy armor

But they just put poise into weapon types from what I understand so you'll still need it if you want a giant badass sword and heavy armor. I mean I rarely touch vitality because I've always been a fast roll guy but it still seems valuable to certain builds

I guess coming from Bloodborne where armor was 100% cosmetic I don't mind that as much

im glad poise is gone because everyone in pvp has to follow the same rules instead of some rear end in a top hat hyper armoring through attacks cause of his numbers, but its lovely that the stat is still advertised to you and equip load is still a thing

that said the way poise works now makes it very powerful if you can catch people off guard with it... the sunlight talisman is especially good for slamming sunlight spears point blank into peoples faces with your hyper armour
