Okay, the first time I put this up it was kind of a joke build… but its the build I have been using since I started playing DS. I have never played any other build and so I know this one inside and out. It may seem like a very simple build in terms of structure, but since the structure is so simple it requires a lot of compensation in terms of proper game play versus each type of opponent. It requires fast reflexes and patience, careful study of your opponent while dodging attacks will allow you to approach closely for proper attacks. I understand that most of you use S/C and probably depend on it. The reason why this build does not include S/C or Warding is because the focus is on taking as little damage as possible, meaning you will have to learn how to dodge each and every type of weapon. Every weapon is dodge-able, and every build is approachable(Approachable, meaning you can get close without getting hit). It is not obvious at first how to approach any weapon and that is why you must be careful and defensive until you get comfortable. You will also learn that every weapon has a different time gap from when they can do damage and when they cant do damage. Your falchion will have natural advantages and disadvantages, simply study the weapons you face and give more attention to those that give you more trouble. Try and take notice of the intervals (damage/no damage) and organize those intervals into a pattern from witch you can chose the right time to approach. The general rule is: The longer the interval is, the more swings you can take before you roll away. It is possible that you may only be able to take 1 swing at a time, its okay to take your time in a fight, no one is going to hate you for taking forever to kill them… well maybe… although certain builds that use regeneration with short interval weapons are tricky, there is a way around them, but that is for you to find out… :D good luck fellaz!

The Zulu
It's not very…specific ;) I'm not sure what you want this build to be in terms of fighting style, etc. Except spiritual. I got that. Lol.
Hey, by the way ^_^ GG from previous fights.

Ask my anything. About Magic, that is.
One cannot be told how to fight like The Zulu… One must discover by himself the true Zulu power!
The fighting style is to become death.
Geez, it ain't that hard to understand.
I LIKE THE SOUND OF THIS BUILD
SHAKA ZULU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
You know Qudshu, I think you invaded me with this build today. The damage wasn't even scratching me but you put up a good fight nonetheless—credit to you using this build for so long I suppose. I like the Zulu idea though: minimalist and badass. +1 from me : )
Couldn't find a bunny with toast, ah well.

Thanks man! :D
np, btw wouldn't a moon short spear go well with this idea?

There are points at the end of every sentence.

Interesting idea, but you'll get creamed by Faith Builds, NR Vit builds, and Cursed STR builds, and probably Dex builds too. It seems like a good idea for PvE or casual PvP, but against anyone serious you'll get creamed three ways to tomorrow. I agree with toasTBacon; the Moon Spears would go well with this, as would a Rune Shield or DSS.
But, hey; it's your build, do what you want.
Good Luck, Have Fun
Maybe you'll run into Celeis, my Silver Dragon. That'll be interesting, heheheheh…
Why not use the crescent kilij? it has the same moveset and does more damage. Or even a crescent secret dagger or moon claws? they are faster weapons by far, deal decent damage, and use minimal stamina per strike.
incredible! I can see you having trouble in PvP but I still like it. I think I actually might try something similar to this the eternal warrior's ring could help… probably not enough to consider using it but +1 from me.
