Cast Karmic Justice before going into battle and use a shield with less than 100% physical damage reduction to execute Karmic Justice while blocking (may take a few hits).
Grass Crest Shield and Cloranthy Ring suggested for Stamina Regen and you can even put on the Mask of the Child for Stamina Regen also.
Heavy Weapon upgraded to Normal +15 and buffed with Darkmoon Blade, Sunlight Blade, or your choice of resins.
