So I can't figure out which of my characters doesn't suck. And was there a change in how equip weight works or something? Most of my characters can't roll quickly and that's always something I'm careful about.

So I've got a level 69 character that still seems to function okay, but I'm not liking his stats. You up for just starting new characters and doing a co-op playthrough?

Absolutely. What kind of char are you thinking? I've tried three different sunbros and they all suck. Problem is nobody summons after ~sl70 so there's no way to make use of Sun Spear, which I really want to use in co-op.
As for equip burden, all I know is that they patched the DWGR before I got into playing, which now only changes your roll animation and only works at or under 25% equip load. Maybe your characters don't have as much Endurance as you'd thought? Or you aren't using rings you're used to?
Getting summoned, continue in the next post..

Oh, yeah, that DWGR update is what killed me. Kind of makes it pointless, really, unless it still confers a few more invincibility frames.
I'm thinking of doing a Darkmoon dex character, but I wouldn't be opposed to sunbroing it up with you.

Wall of text:
The roll and run speed of the player will vary with the amount of equipped weight. Equip Weight above 100% of total Equip Load leaves the player unable to roll and run. Trying to roll or backstep at this weight will stun the character. Equip weight above 50% and up to 100% of Equip Load gives slow movement, and causes the player to 'fat roll'. Equip weight above 25% and up to 50% of Equip Load gives medium movement. There are also two different speeds to medium rolls, above and below 37.5%. Equip weight equal to and below 25% of Equip Load gives fast movement. Equip weight below 25% also has 4 individual speeds: The fastest speed is achieved at 0% equip. The only weapons with no weight are Dragon Body and the Pyromancy Flame. The other speed ranges are from 0.1% to 8.3%, 8.4% to 16.6%, and 16.7% to 25%.
Patch 1.05 increased the base equip burden by 6 points. Giving exactly 80 at 40 endurance. The patch also changed how the different burden loads were calculated. Before when your equip weight = 25%/50%/100% then you would hit the next burden level, now it is equip weight ≥ 25%/50%/100% that you hit the next bracket. Which is more logical and likely a typo in the original code. There's still a few instances where your equip weight is exactly on the break point, but will still give the movement of the weight class above; this is probably due to some decimal rounding error in the code. Patch 1.06 decreased the percentage of Mask of the Father from 15 to 5%. It also changed the Dark Wood Grain Ring to only function below 25% equip weight.

My darkmoon DEX guy is my favorite, but only in an honorable fight. He's very susceptible to any garbage play. I use the DWGR on that character because the dodge carries you pretty far and it disguises the backstep a bit, which I use with my Uchigatana pretty frequently. I was thinking of making a GiantDad and gravelording, to make it possible to win a 3v1 perhaps.

Christ, that's quite an overhaul. Can't say I'm fond of a lot of those changes. Oh, yeah, that DWGR update is what killed me. Kind of makes it pointless, really, unless it still confers a few more invincibility frames.

I named him Jubblies.

Dunno. What level do you want to stop at?
70 is probably high enough to beat the game while still opening up some PvP.

Got to Solaire and jumped down to rest at the bonfire for no reason whatsoever. I didn't kick the ladder down.
