The way this build work is to apply different status effects to your enemies, and in doing so you're not only taking their HP away faster but, thanks to Kindred of rot's exultation and Lord of blood's exultation talismans, you are boosting your own damage as well. You can achieve these by giving bleed or poison to your weapons through ashes of war, and using weapons with scarlet rot on them like the Antspur Rapier or the Scorpion's stinger. The build itself is pretty flexible because you have several options in the game to help you out with status effects. The dragon communion seal is the best choice cause of his Arc/Faith scaling, the Black knife is a good choice in any build to start a fight cause of the debuff you can apply with it. The bloodhound's step is a great choice for fast combat, but any ash will do as long as you choose poison or bleed damage for your weapon.
As an alternative for status buildup you can choose to use coating incantations as well as consumables, with that in mind i recommend switching Scarlet Aeonia for Black flame blade, Bloodflame blade and Poison armament, and also to make room for Vyke's dragonbolt which is a great damage booster overall. But bare in mind that going this route will prevent you from applying ashes of war to provide bleed/poison and arcane scaling on your weapons.
Released in 1986 for the Famicom, 1989 for the NES and a bunch of other release dates for various ports by Chunsoft, Dragon Warrior (also known as Dragon Quest) is the game that spawned the JRPG franchise. The player controls a young hero with the aim of defeating a being known as the Dragonlord. Along the way the hero must collect the stolen 'Balls of Light', and the cover of the game box features a dragon that looks suspiciously like the one from Dragonball. Hmm. I wonder if you get a wish at the end.
As a pioneer in the RPG realm, Dragon Quest games have a reputation for being "bread and butter" representatives of the genre. The player advances through the game by carrying out predetermined actions directly related to the progression of the plot, such as collecting a key item or defeating a particular antagonist. Usually, one of his first orders of business is to gather a party of like-minded warriors to join him on his quest. As the party traverses the landscape and various dungeons, they will be forced to fight (or, if they choose, flee from) enemies based on a "random encounter" system. Later in the game, the party often acquires improved transportation that may allow them to avoid such skirmishes. Battles are turn-based; the player delivers combat instructions each turn from an in-battle menu system. Some games feature AI that sees all party members but the Hero character responding to situations based on various factors at hand, sometimes including general orders such as "Attack ferociously" or "Go all-out with magic."
Once upon a time, the Balls of Light illuminated the kingdom of Alefgard, keeping its winters short and sustaining its peace. However, a man who could tame dragons and hence known as a Dragonlord, became corrupted by his magical studies. He attacked the Tantegel Castle and stole the Balls of Light, causing monsters to roam the land. A valiant hero named Erdrick, who had obtained the Balls of Light for the kingdom in the first place, attempted to defeat the Dragonlord and disappeared without trace. Many years later, during the reign of King Lorik XVI, the Dragonlord abducted Princess Gwaelin, carrying her to Castle Charlock. One day, a knight appears in front of the king, claiming to the be the descendant of Erdrick. He is entrusted with the mission to vanquish the Dragonlord, as the prophet Mahetta has predicted.
The Good
Dragon Warrior was the first real RPG for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). You play as a descendant of the great warrior Erdrick sent to save the princess and slay the evil Dragonlord. Standard RPG conventions abound: purchase equipment, fight random battles to gain levels, talk to NPCs in various towns scattered across the world... This is basically the template for all of the early Japanese RPG titles. I'll admit that I didn't play this game back when it came out. In fact, I didn't even own an NES and, unlike Final Fantasy or Crystalis, I never watched someone play this game either. My opinions therefore are not tainted with nostalgia nor are they informed by the time period in which this game was released.
