Notes from author
A build made for being aggressive and smart against opponents. If you are up against someone who has a buffed/fast weapon (such as the Falchion), then use the Strong Magic Shield buff against them to withstand almost all damage for a short period of time. Otherwise, try using Crystal Magic Weapon as needed, and restore your buffs while fighting by setting up a Homing Crystal Soulmass followed by the buff you need. Also, try catching your opponent by surprise by running toward them and using the Tin Banishment Catalyst's R2 if they expect you to blast them with close ranged magic and they begin to roll towards you, where they will get a jab in the face. The main weakness of this build is its low poise and somewhat average defense. To fix the issue of low poise, you can use the alternate version of my build seen here: <a href="http://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls/?c=371748398816370216" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">mugenmonkey.com/darksouls/...</a>
