Notes from author
With weapon and self buff, it is possible to 2 shot people with just 2 attacks in any combination, assuming they won't be ultra overleveled. Great scythe is good, as you probably know, so no hard times killing yourself just to make something viable. Just go there and boom. Nice stamina recovery to always keep the pressure on and somewhat nice fashion souls. Basic poise for trading sometimes and score kills. Fast roll oriented, but feel free to go mid roll if you got gud enough to keep it going like that.
You can get some more poise by using havel ring instead of wolf, allowing you to get 1 more poise breakpoint, but be aware that the defense upgrades won't be significative and the non physical ones will be diminished. No fashion souls too.
