Best with rank 3 in covenant. If red tearstone is applied (through use of dung pies and purple moss clumps), Darkmoon blade, and power within, and then a parry on an enemy, will do 18,725 damage (if my calculations are correct). Can one shot NG+7 Gwyn. If fighting enemies that cannot be crit, than use the Ring of The Sun’s Firstborn instead of the Hornet Ring. If reposte with sun’s firstborn instead of hornet ring, does 15,674 damage.
