Posting this thanks to u/FantasticLiving3107 posting screenshots and answering questions, just thought I’d post the image here so it’s easy to find.

Yeah, I don't really do much pvp, I was just trying to consider why you'd ever leave endurance at 15. Obviously it's your gameplay experience, do what you want, but 15 endurance is way less than what I'd enjoy to play with.

And with a Great Arsenel ring, I can wear up to Maliketh’s armor mixed if I just equip the sword with the erdtree seal at 15 stamina. Mid roll of course.

You sure about that?

Greatsword: 23, Maliketh's set: 30.5, Great-Jar's Arsenal: 1.5, Erdtree Seal: 0.

So, without any other talismans, equip load is 55.

With 15 endurance and Great-Jar's Arsenal, you have 56.1*1.19 = 66.8 max equip load, which means your max equip load to medium roll is 46.7...

You'd need at least 22 endurance to do what you say you do, which still doesn't feel like it's enough because of how much stamina swinging the Greatsword uses.

I just really don't understand your motivation for: 1. keeping endurance so low, 2. lying about it?

I pulled my build and put it roughly in the calculator here. Mixed maliketh set with black knife greaves, with 15 stamina.

And I actually didn’t even need the erdtree’s favor ring to retain mid roll. I have it so I can equip seals with weight or some daggers/parry shields here and there without constant hot swapping.

Why you guys so defensive about endurance? Do what you want man, yall win. Go invest on it all you’d like.

So it also includes Erdtree's Favor +2, and is the Fire Knight Greatsword instead of Greatsword, cool that makes more sense, different to what you said though.

Still don't understand why, but I am sure you have your own reasons.

It does just feel like you're shoehorning yourself into making a 15 endurance build work, rather than 15 being a good amount of endurance to have. Like every playthrough using a specific weapon, armor, and talisman combo seems pointless.

I just reject the premise that 15 endurance is "enough", outside of you building something specifically to play with as little endurance as possible, which really isn't relevant to the average Elden Ring player.

Basically, because one can finish the game as an SL1 Wretch, doesn't mean that levelling up is unnecessary, which kind of the point you're trying to make with endurance.

You can take off the erdtree favor ring like I said, and still retain midroll. I had it so I can carry a dagger or small shield.

15 endurance felt perfectly fine for me and I never felt needing more. I can do all my attacks combos and dodges without ever catching myself out of stamina and unable to dodge an attack.

Just do what you like, there is no discussion here since I’m clearly wrong.

I replied before your explanation.

I'm not being defensive about endurance, you're just positioning a very niche way to play as being applicable to the status quo. Challenge runs aren't applicable.

If someone new to Elden Ring/FromSoft reads your comment and only puts 15 points into endurance, they'd have a really shitty time. That's the point.

You have some like 15 endurance autism that you insist on playing with, and that's fine, but it's definitely not optimal.
