The almost perfect Grant build

I say almost because I couldn't find a good small strength scaling buffable weapon. The little hammers are too slow for PvP, I think, never used one. Also I set up a combination of shiny and holy armor that could give at least 31 poise for stunlocking with MSGS. The thing is I don't know if the combination looks good, so it's open to suggestions. Remember minimum 31 poise. 42 End and 40 Faith bothers me, as well as not having RoFAP.

that's what i use sometimes, i have 41 end in my leeroy build. i like the way it looks and it has some good D and res.

Also none of the Str weapons have a long reach, nor are fast. Things that are so important in PvP. The butcher knife is actually fast but it weights too much.

Edit: The small Str weapons I meant. The DGM has a pretty long reach.

i think you need a DGM.

cresecnt axe has the same range and speed as the butcher but still weighs 7 pounds.... a hand axe might work as a seconday weapon as its very fast....

also, try this:

painting guardian hood, paladin armor/gloves and heavy boots, i use it sometimes too. this is with 40 end, with 42 i think you can wear the dingy/maiden skirts which are some of the best if not the best ones in the game in terms of defense.

I like that one better, RoFAP ftw. I don't like the Hand Axe, it's slow and small lol.

the handaxe is actually really fast, no penalty for missing but the reach sucks.

You can have a perfect build? this is news to me.

Also there's loads of untidy odd numbers all over it, you can't call this atrocity perfect

Yeah I hate the odd numbers. I can't seem to make it perfect because the small Str weapons suck. If only a spear could scale with Str....

I wanna try the Butcher Knife with DMB for the lulz.

it hits hard but the move set is ok, i like the r2 attack, the weird animation makes it hard to parry and you get 6hp back per hit so that's always a plus.

Also I saw that it breaks 52 poise when 2 handed.

Isn't that the Server that gives you 6hp back?

Yeah the Server is 6 Hp, the Butcher Knife I think it's 4 HP.

i meant to write 5 but im not sure if its 4 or 5, i also think it depends if its 2h, i need to test it more.

wait... the BUTCHER knife heals you?! i thought only the server and smoughs hammer did that?

yep, butcher knife too.
