I only use the mail breaker if i cant carry the rapier. I do think the mailbreaker is a great weapon, people write it off cause rapier is clearly better. It has the advantage of being a pound lighter, and really doesnt do all that much less dmg. Its better then settling for a bandits knife or dagger imo. I use them mainly for crit dmg obviously, but its really helpful and more useful to be able to attack from behind your shield. If i use a bandits knife(which i think does more dmg then mail breaker) i literally only use it for ripostes and backstabs.
I tryed this build out for a bit, i just really do not like using spells. I do pretty well with pyro for some reason though. I am starting to think that a pure warrior build might beat out dex/pyro as being my favorite type of build. This is my favorite build at the moment, i know it is not original what so ever.

I did end up switching to claymore, but because of the length/range rather then the move sets. Claymore just has that little bit of added range that really makes a difference.Also, even though i dont like too i switch to a chaos/lightning rapier when i deal with the black iron/giants mom builds.
