Notes from author
Gargoyles don't need armor, and neither do you. Still, just a little modesty never hurt. With this build you maximize vitality and aren't enslaved to the Havel's or FAP rings. The Gargoyle Halberd is a beastly weapon and its potential is maximized with minimum stats requirements and chaos scaling, giving you plenty of leftover stats for health and anything else you see fit. Rings are completely optional, but I recommend these selections so that you don't get steam rolled. Darkwood Grain Ring is a nice substitution for either ring slot. Pyromancies also give you the fiery fury of our petrified bretheren. Have fun and don't be afraid to play around with stat distribution.
