Oh, I wouldn't recommend combining Havel AND the ring. You could, but I'm just guessing Havel alone should be enough. 2102 HP are indeed a lofty goal, but mind you this was NG8, you can easily get to soul level 300+ range by that time, giving you lots of options. Considering the soft caps for Vigor, 50 points spent there should do the trick on lower difficulties. At least for me, it worked. I never got oneshot up until NG8 and kept my HP lower before that. (>.>)

What keeps me even better alive, now, is the <30% equip load. People hate on how little benefit you gain, but to me, it is deciding. Having just a slightly faster roll with a little bit more range often makes the difference between getting hit by phantom range or having to roll a second time to outrange these ridiculous 360 swipes every single peasant enemy has in this game and actually dodging. Can I get your votes for bringing back DWGR or introducing Dark Souls to the Bloodborne Quickstep? (>.>)
