Notes from author
Insanely useful build against flippers, backstab fishers, giantdads, and anyone who runs away.
This build is meant to be the ace in the hole for any other build and playstyle.
Here are some strats and tips.
1) 76 poise is the right amount of poise to take any weapon to the face and not get stunned.
2) Tranquil walk of peace slows people down to a crawl, they can't flip if they the dark wood grain ring, they midroll or fatroll, also if they manage to escape the range of lived long enough to outlast it, don't worry- you have 3 left.
3) Wrath of the gods is very useful against anyone getting too close, hurting people who always have their shield up, damaging people who are waking up, and opening people up for a stunlock window. 12 wogs insanely powerful.
4) The demon's spear is the longest weapon in the game, it's very quick, you can use it behind a shield. Thus you can 2-hand it for longer range, use it behind a shield for R1 spammers who get to close.
5) Quelaag's furysword is the longest curved sword in the game, R1 spam is very fast and easy (as with all curved sword), it stunlocks very easily, the R2 is much like a greatswords R1, and it's a very versatile weapon. (Remember to have at least 10 humanity for the big damage bonus)
6) Add 5 more points if you wanna have bigger health, but there isn't enough room for points to be spend elsewhere that's worth it.
