IGNORE/DONT PICK UP the "Increase Stiffness when Perfect Blocking" or whatever the fuck the name of that upgrade is, since it is actually detrimental. Also fuck the elden ring cube, its upgrades, and the piss tree stuff.
Double dodge>Stagger Window>all of the Pulse Cell-related stuff>Fable Slots
pick up the amulet slots along the way
and for passives basically all of the attack ones, grindstone buffs, legion arm stuff that lets you regen the bar. all of the legion arm upgrades feel so good on ng+ with the DOOM shotgun arm you get in this dlc
