Most of the run. I used the antspur rapier for a lot of the game- good shield poke, rot, and accepts ashes. Usually do blood, but sometimes poison for double status build up.
For malenia I used morghwyn’s huge blood spear.
There’s probably other good poke weapons too, but this is what I’ve been using.
It’s a fun play style. I’m just getting into the DLC with it. Worked really well on the divine beast dancing lion.

Malenia with a tower shield and spear was fun. She’s like “spin spin spin” and I’m like “no. And furthermore: counter poke”
They might have nerfed her healing or something, because it doesn’t fill her health all the way back up like I expected
Wait, that sounds hilarious. Very stupid but hilarious. Did you use this setup for your entire playthrough or just for Malenia?
