LunarFog Build: Life Siphon

http://mmdks.com/vay

This is a customization of my "Plague Build" inspired by WyrmHero's build inspired by my own build, so really I give myself inspiration.

Armor: picked half-randomly. The snickering tophat was picked because that's what I'll be doing. The rest is aiming for high poise at <50% equipment weight.

Right hand weapons and menu-swaps:

• Gravelord Greatsword - inflicting toxin
  
  
• Chaos Server - High damage and restores 7 HP per hit
  
  
• Chaos Guardian Tail - Inflicting poison
  
  
• Pyromancy - casts toxin/poison fog
  
  
• Sanctus - regains 2 hp per second
  

Left hand weapons

• Sanctus - regains 2 hp per second
  
  
• Thorolund talisman - casts replenishment and heal

Items

• Dung bomb - causes toxin
  
  
• Poison Throwing Knives - causes poison
  

STRATEGY
Start the match off with gravelord greatsword and dung bombs and aim for inflicting toxin. Once toxin is inflicted, cast poison cloud and use it as a barrier to give you enough time to cast replenishment and switch your weapons to either guardian tail or Server. Repeat the process with guardian tail/poison throwing knives if desired or switch to Server for the max damage and health regain.

Since the opponent is losing health while you gain health, you have the freedom to be as defensive of a fighter as you want. If you want to stay on total defense, you can switch to the 2nd Sanctus in your right hand to regain more health per second.

Since you're medium rolling it's best to have at least 61 poise for dealing with spears. Giant legs can get you 64 and should look good with FAP armor, but I don't have an idea if the overall looks will look cool. Other than that I love the mix between healing and disease, it's awesome!!!!

http://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls/?c=285544199598288541 Doesn't look as good but has good poise, defense and has a SL93 instead, which gives you 6 extra points to put in. Cleric was a better starting class

Your missing 5 pts on Dex in that build Fatty.

Edit: both builds are... what the heck? Not enough dex to use Curved Greatswords... 2 mistakes or are you not putting in enough dex to use your weapon on purpose?

So it wasn't me being stupid

Looks like a fun build, but you could change the cleric leggings for golem leggings and the hat for porcelain to get 66 poise.
