This is a simple build i made a while back, Its vary simple and quite simple to use. It can handle most situations.
I just got armor that stacked bleed well and look pretty grim reapery.
Few things to note.
1. For turtles just spam the sprint attack they'll bleed to death no time flat
2. Have blood moss at the top of you item menu for when you fight katana users (double bleed really hurts)
3. you NEED green blossoms if you used a scythe before you know they devour stamina.
4. Use the poisons to put them on a timer
5. Use the R1 vary sparsely this build have vary low poise and it leaves you open for sunlocks
