DLC makes it much easier. Pharros Mask (+110), Flash Sweat (+300), Dispelling Ring+1 (+120) and Flamequartz Ring+3 (+150). That right there is 680. With natural defenses and some armor, you can easily scrap up the other 220, for 900 total.

Without DLC, you can only get Dispelling Ring (+60) and Flamequartz Ring+2 (+100), and Flashsweat. You can probably get around 700-750 total if you really maximize your defense and armor.
