Crazy Chaos Knight set that is my current build, focusing on speed, damage, pyromancies:

Elite Knight Set except leggings which are silver knight (elite knight has some of the highest defense vs. weight ratio in the game, silver knight leggings are lighter with comparable defensive stats)

Chaos Blade as a main weapon: great damage output and moveset, feedback damage is minor to negligible. Dark Hand for soul suck, pyro flame, a good, fast heavier weapon such as murakumo or flamberge, black bow of pharis, Dragonslayer Greatbow all have their applications as utility weapons.

Spells: Great Chaos Fireball for its useful application in PvP, Fire Tempest, Great Combustion. Other utility spells include power within and fire spray.

Shield: Black Knight Shield for great all-round defensive stats, Grass Crest Shield for stamina regen and decent stability.

Dark Wood Grain Ring for flips, ring of the evil eye for pvp to offset feedback damage from chaos blade; wolf ring for pvp to boost poise past the 55 required to resist claymore staggers.

Stats:

42 vitality

40 dexterity

? strength (might buff this in future to increase weapon variety)

40 endurance

whatever attunement needed for 4 slots (I think 14?)

base faith, int, resist.
