Build Strategy
In this build, it is important to stay mobile and anticipate hits so you can dodge/counter hit. You're gonna have low poise so try not to get caught up in a large weapons two handed attack. Against weapon enchants cast your spells to stall on enchant time. If its big weapons use lifehunt to attack out of range, if it's a katana/rapier it's probably best to use the shield in off hand to block lunging attacks. You should also use the shield against pyromancy, especially combustion. Almost forgot, don't use the normal R1 with the gravelord sword. It is very slow. Use R2 and running attacks.
That's the basic concepts of the build. Have fun!

There are some issues with this build...
1. Too many levels are wasted with that sword's pathetic E Scaling. Unless you L2 almost exclusively with Lifehunt you will be better off Keeping the build to 24Str, 14Dex. You'll be saving 23 Levels for a measly loss of 34 AR.
2. Drop DWGR since you will NOT be fast rolling with all that weight, especially at only 40 End.
3. Drop Acid Surge for another Pyromancy, it does practically nothing. I reccommend another Poison/Toxic Mist to fit the theme and for easier Toxic build up, Black Flame to fit the dark death look or Fire Tempest for a Gravelord Greatword Dance-esque move.
Other than that interesting idea with Lifehunt Scythe in the left hand. Gives it a real grim reaper look to the build!
