I made this build a few days ago. The only thing different on mine, is I gave myself the endurance to have Messmers spear equipped as well. The ash of war on it is just so fun and its great for clearing aoe mobs.

[@LordAnubis85]

I brought my original character into the DLC which is a hybrid STR/FTH build, so naturally the Fire Knight Greatsword/armor set was the perfect match. If you find the Winged Serpent Helm, you can boost your Fire Knight AoWs by 10%, which personally I find better than the Mesmer helm. I also farmed and +25'd a second Fire Knight Greatsword so I have one with Flame Skewer and one with Flame Spear, that way I can switch based on what I'm fighting without having to find/fast travel to a site of grace.

[@Fractixx]

The messmer helmet gives the same buff no? It’s just harder to get lol.

[@LordAnubis85]

@@Fractixx Nope, Messmer's Helm gives a 3% damage boost to Fire Knight Skills and Messmer Flame spells. So it works on both spells and skills, but the Winged Serpent Helm is a larger boost to just skills.

[@AkrabSouls]

Same build except im going all in on faith + endurance for a good poise armor set

[@kail_6019]

On my main character i play Messmer build, boss Spear with Vyke spear or Naginata for fast attacks and bonus bleed or catana with unsheathe for stager and maybe bleed. I use two weapons because a charged spear strong attack is a weak throw, so the second weapon makes up for it great to play, on another character i play with this sword and Ashes of war

[@TorinDavis-cv6hs]

So I ended with a similar build except I use the Spear of the Impaler as a Mob weapon as well, you can carry both at 32 endurance. Strength is definitely not needed at 50, it falls off and scales terrible anyway. I did 60 Vigor, 22 mind, 32 endurance (to use the spear, sword and still have 51 poise with armor), 30 strength, 35 dexterity, 9 int, 80 faith and 8 arcane. Same buffs, same incantations as him and same talismans. The mix is flame cracked tear and the stone-barb tear. When fully buffed I get 3509 with the sword and 2471 with the spear. If anyone has any other suggestions let me know!

[@prototypechile]

I really enjoy this weapon because of the moveset. The same light attacks as the godslayer gs is cool, same with the heavy

theres a much easier farm for the greatsword. seventh floor storehouse grace, drop down the stairs and immediately theres a greatsword knight with his back turned. just don't knock him off the ledge with a backstab, just heavy him or use a spell instead

[@glaeli1184]

I don’t really get the 50 STR, the scaling on str is terrible and it’s the same as the one on dex… shouldn’t it be better to just pump up FTH more and live str OR dex at 40? Or even go for a full physical quality with same values on Str/Dex (like 30/30) and going hard on FTH (ideally 80)? Just asking since I still have to test it out

Just as a quick fyi, the fire rain is literally garbage waste of FP it's not even worth using for role playing.
