warrior is good, choose that, get master key, beat the asylum (if u cant do that, wow) go to the graveyard place, get the zweihander (pronounced Z-WHY-HANDER) get enought stats to weild that ,and JUST that much. Then u should spend all yo sould on endurance, cuz imma be honest, dodging is fun... like REALLY fun, and more skill-based... i dont want dark souls to be like a turn based game, like ``ILL WIN IF I CAN DO MORE DPS THAN THIIS BOSS! I JUST GOTTA TANK THESE FOR A WHILE!``because u wont be able to do that..... plus, u learn more. ALSO, if u plan on playing NG+, the enemies i think only get stronger stat wise, and so, ur tanking will eventually come in vein. (plus u cant guard certains bosses) BUT, if u can keep on dodging (i think dodging will be the same difficulty no matter if ur on NG or NG+) you wont take damage, as in, dodging moer effective if u plan to go further in the game.

NOW! I KNOW THIS DOESNT SEEM LIKE A BEGINNERS GUIDE! but new players can still do this easily, (mabye not the NG+ part, but,) u just need some experiance with the controller, not neccisarily game knowledge... i hope this helps some of the more umh... energetic new players....
