Notes from author
For this build, I wanted a few things.
Fast rolling & optimized stats
I wanted the best min/maxed light armor I could wear (if reinforced all the way).
I compared it with other sets on Mungmonkey's armor optimizer as well as other builds even with 99 humanity, and this one seems to give the best averages for fast rolling with the favor ring.
Advise;
The weapon can be swapped out, and I advise getting any item you can utilize to your advantage, as well as multiple copies of the reinforced club with different upgrade paths.
You may also want to obtain the Gaint Blacksmiths Hammer as long as you are finished with him on this playthrough.
Tips;
-The crystal ring shield isn't bad and can be used as your only ranged "spell" while we use Great Combustion & Fire Whip.
-GC is better than black flame for pve, and if a boss interrupts fire whip midway through or at the start of the cast, we save extra casts for it due to the mechanics of fire whip.
Firestorm and its relatives are not recommended as they take too long to cast and are inconsistent.
