Notes from author
Balanced build that relies on using Artorias Greatshield's super-high stability, and the use of the Gravelord sword to deal damage. This build is on the verge of the Midroll weight threshold. Crown of the Dark Sun is used to boost the miracle damage from GGD.
Gravelord sword may be changed and stats tweaked a bit, so you may change it for something like the Great Club. Still, the weapon has almost no scaling, not that much weight and the moveset is quite good, different from other curved swords.
You're supposed to use Thorolund's Talisman due to it having the highest MagAdj with the least Faith investment, making it better for "Gravelord Greatsword Dance" miracle. "Power Within" is just added as a bonus: 2 points that could help vitality reach the 40's are instead put on more attunement to get that extra slot, just for you to pick anything else from pyromancies or the original Gravelord Sword Dance (in which case, you should also upgrade your pyromancy flame to an A S C E N D E D one).
Overall, I think it's a good build for PvE and somewhat decent for PvP. I have yet to make it and test it myself.
