by WyrmHero Mon Apr 02, 2012 3:24 pm@Viral I'm trying to make him when he was in all his glory as a God. I think he wielded at least Great Lightning Spear... Although the description said he only had respect for arms....

I went with Sunlight Blade only, though I feel that he would also use the Greater Lightning Spear. Sunlight Spear is something specific to Gwyn himself, but the Lightning Spears are versions of it meant to be used by the God of War and his covenant members.
As for stats, I would recommend taking Faith down to 40 since you won't need 50 for Sunlight Spear, and cut into your Dex a bit on top of the 10 points from Faith to make Dex and Str even at 33 each. This will not only allow you to one-hand the spear, but boost the AR of both the spear and the Sunlight Sword a bit.
And whether it would hurt your roleplay feel or not, strategically it makes sense to replace the Ring of the Firstborn with a Wolf Ring so your 0 poise wearing butt won't be instagibbed by being stunlocked by a katana :|
You're off to a great start, but I thought I'd share what I had in mind (also, here's an example of what I was thinking of: http://tinyurl.com/7wlprrv)

its true crystal weapons cant be repaired but if your gona buff something its more damage to be crystal. Just pick weapons that either you dont care about or can be bought from npcs. i crystals all my "get once per game" weapons since i dont use most of them anyway. Might as well crystalize them and buff

Yeah crystal weapons have better AR. I didnt crystallize the sunlight sword because once it is broken, I dont want to kill Solaire for another one. It gives 707 AR with Sunlight Blade.
