I've been lurking around here for a while and play dark souls pretty much everyday. Last night i got bored and quite because it seemed like every person I invaded as a forest hunter was either wielding a katana or a great sword, both of which were usually lightning. Then today I was reading a "my new PvP build" post when someone made the suggestion of using straight swords like Darksword or Sunlight Straight sword and I thought that was an awesome Idea. I have NEVER seen anyone doing it. Is it viable? I don't tend to be the greatest player but I do decently well 1v1 and would really love to manage to put together a build like this.
so far this is what I've come up with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKRgktzRvZ0
Shortly after making this, I realized I blow at making builds from scratch so now I'm asking for help to make this build better.
Nothing is set in stone, I just did the high faith and Astora's because it seemed more versatile. As for the rest of the gear, I don't know much about rings and armor so I just kinda went for poise and mobility.
any changes and critiques are very encouraged as I would really like to perfect this build.
