Be Wary of Healers; swap to more "honorable" armor and/or host to reduce the likelihood of healers. When the opponent is trying to backstab you, unlock and 1h r1 with the Moonlight Greatsword to or WoG to dead angle. Dead angle WoG to MLG 2h r2 special is a good combo. Throw chaos fireball, walk (slowly) into lava then cast fire tempest; never cast fire tempest without lava. Build is most effective against pure melee builds. Remove giant armor and gauntlets then swap to dark wood grain ring if you encounter a caster.
