I've created a monster...

Well, I will be shortly! http://tinyurl.com/7y57292

Never had a build come out this perfect in planning. I've also never used velkas or sorcery much so this should be fun. Can anyone attest to great scythe + cmw and let me know what my final AR should be? I think it should break 800...

393+478. 0 poise is very annoying I tell you.

awesome and yea I know but at least it gives me a reason to practice toggling... I've dealt with it before on my pyro as an experiment and did surprisingly well. Backup plan is wolf ring.

Prepare to be stun-locked to hell and back!

I made the mistake of entering into a PvP match-up last-night in the Moonpit with only 18 Poise, after foolishly substituting my Wolf Ring with my RDTS, and after a bit of ducking and diving on my part ended up being stun-locked from the very first hit to a very quick death up against a nearby tree. If ever there was a leason to be learned about the value of Poise in PvP, for me that was it, never again will my Wolf Ring leave my finger!

Actually ive gotten pretty good with toggling out of greatsword and ultra greatsword speed swings, i need to practice faster weapons. It would really give me a lot of added benefits if i could drop the wolf ring on a few of my builds.

As for a buffed great scythe, i personally would not allow you to buff. You're dealing WAY too much dmg with that thing, and it is extremely good at dead angles. A lot of people get mad when i backstab them as they buff, but you literally 1-3 shot any build with that combo. Dont expect people to let you buff, thats all im saying.

rofap+wolf ftw! by far my favorite ring combo.

indeed.

BTW, that armour set-up looks best on a female character.

Btw. with your build, i´d say, put the Wolf Ring on, with 2 spells, bellowing dragoncrest dont get his full potential ...

in my opinion, pretty low attunement ... :/ i feel only safe with 6+ slots

I've been making a lot of options open to me as I level. Thank you for your suggestions. Just to address a few things:

Female char is a go and yes the armor looks great.

Rofap and wolf is very strong. Generally I add catarina guants with a ring setup like this just to see that nice 53 poise number.

Being attacked while buffing is fine. I already get it enough on my dmb char, and he's only buffing a hand axe lol. I'll deal as in the end it's all still fun and games

The dragoncrest ring is kinda wasted...so is having 45 dex. Thoughts on maybe dropping as low as 20 here for more options?

Velkas rapier is beast with dex/intel characters. One of my favorite weapons by far.
