Notes from author
Requires using tumblebuff. Look up stuff about that if you don't know how. Wielding Havel's Greatshield in the empty slot causes a fat roll making tumblebuff easy.
I chose the armor for 61 poise as a priority, followed by physical survivability, hence the Xanthous Waistcloth and the Mask of the Mother.
Fire Keeper Soul is there for those who want to duplicate it for a free heal that doesn't use a Humanity.
If you're a beginner to tumblebuffing you might want to switch Wrath of the Gods to Sunlight Blade for a failsafe in case you mess up the tumblebuff and have to go again. Sunlight Blade can also help in case Great Magic Barrier is used.
Also consider as an alternative switching to a Divine or Occult Ricard's Rapier (each do the same damage but Divine is more physical and less magic than Occult) and changing chest armor to Wanderer's. Heavy attack with that will do 2000+ damage to bosses and players alike, if it hits, and is great for chipping at shields and brilliant for quick kills on unaware players. Just don't do it on a greatshield or an Iron Round Shield as their deflection will cause stun on you.
Change Mask of the Mother to Child's if you prefer the stamina regen, although it's only a 10.6% increase to stamina regen when you're using Green Blossom.
Also 61 Poise because obviously, why not 61 Poise? Although if you really wanted to you could switch the Wolf Ring for the Dark Wood Grain Ring for the flip-flops everywhere to evade and run away from opponents.
24 Dexterity because I ran out of points, otherwise I would've put more. The Dexterity is the only part of the build I think I could tweak: I could reduce it for more Attunement for multibuffs and for the psychology point of view with a fourth, fifth and sixth Wrath of the Gods, or reduce Vitality to boost it to do even more damage for helping friends with bosses where DPS matters like Four Kings.
Remember to place the Lordvessel for Kaathe to get Cracked Red Eye Orbs.
Have fun!
