Notes from author
Im currently running this build at sl65. This is what it will look like at 75. The 14 dex is cause I wanna mess around the with great scythe as my main.
I often switch out the claymore for a zweihander, and sometimes switch out the grass crest for eagle. Armor has to be switched around a little to accommodate weight differences, I usually switch out the legs for elite knight.
If you drop the demon's spear and use the claymore, you can wear two havels pieces and get over 90 poise.
You can't take a hit from a powerful mage, but you can drop most people in one dark bead, and the claymore or zwei does excellent damage. A +10 lightning zwei will stun lock most enemies easily with one hit.
You lack the str to one-hand the zwei, but you just have to make sure you switch to two-handed before swinging.
The demon spear and the spells have the same effect: tricking people into closing range so you can stomp them with your main weapon.
If you don't have the artorias spells, you can use crystal soulmass and whatever else you like to much the same effect.
