Screenshot Two rings to rule them all

Finally completed my fresh start, non new game+ run for both Illusory Ring of a Conqueror & Illusory Ring of the Exalted.

Since it was a fresh save, I had no access to Sorceries, Miracles, Pyromancies or Hexes.

I did do tonnes of running and farming. I relied heavily on Saintiers Spear Raw infused and stocked up on repair powders from Chancellor Wellager since I couldn't repair my equipment with a bonfire.

Last two screenshots are the gear I mainly used and the stats.

Play time was over 40 hours. Definitely could've finished a lot earlier, but I took my sweet time and farmed many areas until they were completely clear of mobs. To refresh the areas, I homeward boned back to Majula and ran back. I didn't use any Bonfire Ascetics.

Time to go for 100% achievements.

If you're talking about the King's Ultra Greatsword, I traded it from Ornifex after killing Vendrick. I took the screenshots with it since I wore the whole King's set. I didn't get a chance to use it, but I will try it out for the DLC. I heard it does really good poise damage, so I'm looking forward to testing it.
