Blood Vials: This version has the 20-item cap. (The "Old Hunters Edition" rerelease in some regions included a patch to boost this to 600, but you should assume the standard cap of 20). DLC: Ensure you have downloaded The Old Hunters DLC. On the European store, the DLC is required to access the later game content mentioned in this guide.

Best Beginner Class: Milquetoast (Balanced stats). Best for Skill Builds: Violent Past (High Strength/Skill, low Arcane/Bloodtinge). Worst Class (Technically): Waste of Skin (Highest starting level, lowest stats, but gives the most freedom to spec exactly how you want).
Important Tip: Do not level Resistance (if you are coming from Dark Souls). It doesn't exist here. Every stat offers some defense. Focus on your damage stats (Strength, Skill, Arcane, Bloodtinge).
