Notes from author
A general strong man build that I used to explore weapon pairs. Gonna list of some of the pairs I enjoyed most.
- Crystal Large Club + Claymore
Great movesets and ranges. The club has amazing damage. This was the best.
- Zweihander + Man-serpent Greatsword
The zwei is easily punishable so you have to be careful when you attack, but the roll thrust is great, and the man-serpent helps up your dps.
- Greatsword + Flamberge
Just a good combo of thrust and slash. The greatsword also sends people into the air and is a lot of fun. Flamberge has a quick fast R1 to help with dps.
I could list off more, but I'm just gonna put everything that I used instead. Just make your own pairs :)
Obsidian Greatsword
Raw Demon Great Machete
Murakumo
Black Knight Sword (fun but slowish)
Stone Greatsword (fun just don't abuse the twop spell)
Washing Pole (great with anything)
Hand Axe (pretty ok)
Golem Axe (has a range attack)
Chaos Demon's Greataxe
Smough's Hammer
Four-pronged Plow (low stamina cost, fast R1's)
Crystal Halberd
Gargoyle's Halberd
Winged Spear (best out of the non special spears, but you could build around using those)
Claws
Dragonslayer Greatbow is why the build goes above sl125, but it's worth it, great fun.
You can also use some different shields if you want.
Heater Shield
Iron Round Shield
Black Iron Greatshield
Cleansing Greatshield
