My first build was even easier than that, maybe. Some strength to carry a tower shield, and then blk knight sword, and basically no armour. Still kills most things in 1 / 2 hits and the tower shield means you don't get bad stamina drain when using the shield if you're not rolling around.
Use the silver knight halberd for more range if necessary. Only got a few more areas to clear out before NG+. That said I haven't fired it up for a couple of weeks. SOON ...
