Notes from author
This is the first step for my build idea. Obviously, survivability has been relegated to secondary status, in favor of attaining and being able to one-handedly wield my weapon of choice, the Demon Great Machete. Thankfully enough I was able to find a loadout (50% weight on the nose ;) ) that I can use and survive reasonably with, and most importantly attain reasonably early; at the very latest this stage will be complete upon the slaughtering of Quelaag, and is a stage that serves as a solid building block and can carry me through forest grinding and make all areas before Sen's Fortress rather easy, and has the added benefit of looking quite badass and doing truly stupid damage for the low level. :D
