A friend wanted to do a Ornstein & Smough co-op playthrough. After clearing the game I returned to Pontiff's to test the build in pvp and did pretty well. This build showed me that if you R1 three times that a lot of opponents see it as a opening, only to be caught by a fourth R1 spam that hits. Surprisingly, R1 spam works despite the weapon size. Just watch out for good shield users and backstab opportunists when expending your stamina.
