Notes from author
This build offers good bleed resist to use the lifehunt scythe.
The lifehunt scythe`s range speed and damage is incredible, especially with the added HUGE bleed damage that comes rather quickly.
The build also offers some good resistances to other sources of damage. I know the thief mask is not the strongest headgear in the game, but I absolutely love it`s look on male PC. You could switch any armor to your liking, though I recommend trying to go for at least 740-735 bleed resist with blood shield and bloodbite ring equipped not to kill yourselves with the lifehunt. It`s important to keep under 25% weight since you`re not meant to tank, but bleed your opponent quickly with swift hits.
For the second right hand weapon, it`s basically your choice once again. This weapon should only be used when your bleed build up is getting dangerously high or your opponent is tough to hit with the scythe and you need something much faster. I recommend dark silver tracer if you're good with ripostes, otherwise, you should probably go for balder side sword, gold tracer or one of the katanas(My preference goes in that order mostly due to the weapons move sets, I hate the katana's moves!).
For the rings, never take off that bloodbite ring unless you know your opponent is gonna be hard to bleed, in which case you should probably switch the lifehunt for one of the three swords i mentioned earlier(not the silver tracer). The second ring is what you prefer, I go with ring of favor and protection since it`s always useful unlike some rings which are only useful in certain situations and the extra stamina is going to help with dodging and attacking a lot.
For the spells, I took power within mostly for pvp to totally massacre my opponent, with it, i can usually finish of someone in a few hits thanks to the bleed proc. Otherwise, great combustion is great for some quick damage and guard break so take 2 of them if you don't pvp or like power within.
