Notes from author

Powerful tank/cleric build focused on health absorption by hitting + killing enemies and passive regeneration. Meant for a No Bonfire/No Death NG+ run, low health it's alleviated by the 35% damage reduction of Numbness and constant HP regeneration, but Vigor can be raised by sacrificing Faith or Intelligence if not using spells, as well as equipping other rings like Stone Ring or Ring Of Giants for extra tankiness. This is the starting build on NG+, I'll upload a final build as an endgame goal, with powerstancing in mind for extra HP restoration on hits. Either way the armor pieces are mainstay of the build, but keep in mind they will only provide health on kills if your character is female (don't ask). If not up for farming 50 Loyce Souls, the Charred Loyce set will do, but the low durability may be a problem without bonfires to fix it, but can be circunvected by using Repair Spell. And that's where the Old Iron Crown comes in, which passively restores spells used every 2 minutes. But again, if spells are not a priority, Ivory Crown is a good headpiece substitute for the passive HP regen, stacking with the Loyce Shield and Ring Of Restoration, or simply use the full Ivory King Set for more defense. This build is attractive for it's flexibility; if many levels are wasted on a stat using a Soul Vessel helps changing them, maybe put on the Soldiers Ring to raise equip load and use those Vit points for Vig or End for taking and dealing more hits, as not dying is the main goal. Change the spells as you see fit, but keep in mind that Old Iron Crown spell restoration works better by attuning plenty of powerful spells with low casts than having medium spells with high casts, because the regenation works on a percentage basis, and the higher the spell count is, the less it restores them, and anyway melee will be your priority for healing, as using Estus constantly is out of the question without replenishing them on bonfires. Good luck and don't die or sit down.
