Returning player help

Hello, I'm a returning player, and just needed some advice. Dual wield looks pretty cool with aerial, and the guides I've looked at show mostly str>agl for stat allocation. My main question is: is it possible to put vit in there somewhere for more survivability, without sacrificing noticable DPS? I just don't like being so squishy. Can someone also please explain aerial vs. lunar? It almost sounds like you pick one or the other to use, and I don't understand it.

 

Is it possible? Yes
Do you recommend it? No... at least for dual wield

Equiping crysta and/or eating food buff that increase max hp should increase your survivability without sacrificing dps a lot.

As for the skills there are lot of reason but for me its the character builds. Some skill damage will increase based on our basic stats (STR/INT/etc). In this case Aerial benefit more with STR while Lunar came from DEX.

 

Wb. ^_^

 

What I recommend is Balancing the required stats and mix vit in there.

 

Vit you can wholeheartedly add it in but at the current level gaps and available xtals you won't need vit.
If you want to add vit, I recommended stopping at 20-60 VIT. It will scale as you level up.

Aerial = twin slash's and shining cross' baby. Think of as, it takes twin slashes innate cdmg with shinining crosses dmg/range.
Ooga booga new ds player explanation: Aerial = big dmg from a safe distance that you can spam
Lunar = Something close to shining crosses dmg pre nerf with added bonuses, p.pierce and different commitments/phantomslash/storm i.frame out
Oog Booga new ds player explanation: Lunar = big dmg but technical skill.
Both are good but main difference is
one scales more in DEX
