Notes from author
Meant to hit as hard as possible but still be able to take some hits.
Also consider using Claymore, Man-Serpent, and Zweihander.
FYI, crystal weapon +4 > damage than Normal +15. So, if you're doing another playthrough to get the second CMW, then make some crystal ones.
Note that if you cast pursuers with the TCC and then switch to the izalith you will have 1 more cast (2 total)
