​

So I always struggle once I hit yellow upper/red maps with gearing upgrades whenever I try and make my own character, and this one is no exception. I'm fully rez capped, have increased max fire res and I'm taking some damage as fire thanks to the watchers eye and Dawnbreaker.

I know my Chaos res is low, but I'm not really as concerned about dying from those source. It's the general amount of damage I'm taking that I'm confused by.

I guess I could get more armour on the chest, maybe try and fit in determination somewhere, but that never seems to help all that much.

Any help or insight is greatly appreciated!
