Notes from author
This build is fully designed with the Gravelord sword in mind. It's your bread and butter. High Vit, heavy poise and defense are all there to help you build that Toxic up. Stats are tuned to give a few off hand options to deal with the short comings of the Gravelord sword. Most of the time you will be using a Choas composite bow in your RH2 slot, and swap for the shotal as a sucker punch finisher, or swap to a chaos estoc for a bit of poke damage against somethat that is over aggressive. Head slot is open, so Dragon breath stone is possible to use. Dont rely on it doing very much damage at high level, but it can be used for ranged ship damage, and it can be used as a zoning tool. As far as pyromancy slots, fill them with whatever you like, or feel like you need.
Let me know what you guys think of this build, If you guys like It I'll post my Dex hot-swap based build.
