How to use:
- Step one: Invade Duke's Archives
- Step two: Find Target
- Step three: Cast CMW
- Step four: Wait for your opponent to attempt to perform an attack, and perform a thrusting attack while they're mid-swing. Timing is critical. If they survive, they'll most likely stagger before they can complete the attack. Proceed to wail on them.
If you don't want to use the Leo Ring, use the Wolf ring and give yourself 58 poise. Lots of poise is really useful when you don't have a shield.
If you don't feel comfortable without a shield, swap the Xanthous Gloves for Witch's Gloves and give yourself a Dark Hand. If that isn't enough for you then you're probably not playing this build correctly, but if you REALLY want to you can swap the Big Hat for Witch Hat, lower one of your stats by 2 points and raise your Endurance to 52. Now you can use all of the Crest Shields or a Tower/Caduceus Kite Shield.
