Notes from author
Dark Armor looks awesome, Black Iron Gauntlets cause duh.
Could jam some stupid looking half blend of havels and hollow warrior but winning like a homo isn't winning.
Poise is massive, take the Zweihander, why not.
Switch from Wolf Ring to Red Tearstone when you have to and utilise the Shotel.
Took me ages to get used to slow rolling, and I had to learn to control how the opponent played rather than rolling to their satisfaction.
My strategy:
Buff yo ridiculous stick.
Dark Fog, one maybe two, spread them out don't let them see ( make sure you're locked on)
One hand heavy attack when close (you can tell by the circle)
Waste time, try bait an exchange, nobody will break your poise.
Shotel (maybe Red Tearstone change) and wreak some havoc, I got really good with this especially.
This build to me was way funner than my previous 2 or 3, it was a lot harder to win.
Falchion + Sunlight Blade plus heaps of poise was my last one and I won nearly every fight in 30 seconds, wasn't entertaining for all that long.
