Notes from author
Build designed to flay two-handers and punish turtles. High poise and HP to facetank while you make them bleed and burn. Feel free to adjust VIT and END scores to your liking.
Weapon Loadout-
Flamberge (Chaos+5) Can be bought from Shiva in Blighttown or dropped from yellow snake men in Sen's.
Shotel (Lightning+5) Also can be bought from Shiva or found above Onion Knight in Sen's
Black Knight Shield +5 If you need to go on the defensive, this is the best mid shield you can have. 100% physical block against the average player is a lifesaver.
Toolbelt-
Estus Flask- Do I realy need to say anything?
Green Blossom- Necessary as the chosen armor has a stamina penalty and we won't have the regen shield. Can be bought on masse from the forlorn knight or farmed from frograys.
Poison Throwing Knife- A handy tool for dealing with turtles and other heavy armor types (Most heavy sets have little to poor poison resist.) Also good for picking off chuggers (firebombs will also work.)
Lloyd's Talisman- Some players will have gotten the Rite of Kindling before heading to Sen's Funhouse. Never be without these.
The listed covenant is Darkwraith, my personal favorite, but go with your favorite PVP group.
Now go forth and wreak havoc!
