Current fastest kill for NG+7. With this build I'm powerstancing Bandit's Curved Swords scaled to Blood with the Cragblade Ash of War. In my physick I'm using a Thorny Cracked Tear and Stonebarb Cracked Tear. To maximize damage, I have 99 Strength, Dexterity, and Arcane. These are some of my most complex buffs yet with hardswaps that are very difficult to master. One very important tip that I've learned recently is to close your menu with the start button instead of backing out. This will close it in one button, making these buffs much easier to pull off in time. That is, of course, if you want to try to beat my record. Good luck (;
Added a description of the buffs from my reddit comment:
Sure, to start, I used a Frenzyflame Stone to inflict madness. With the Black Dumpling helm, this will increase damage by 10%. Using a Frenzyflame Stone also allows me to use other buffs while I wait for the madness to build up. Next, I use Golden Vow, drink a Cerulean Flask, use Cragblade on my left hand armament, then use Bloodboil Aromatic. Golden Vow increases damage by 15% (I use this over Commander's Standard so that the buff remains active in the second phase), Cragblade increases physical damage by 20%, and Bloodboil Aromatic increases physical damage by 30% but decreases resistance by the same amount. By this time the madness will have been inflicted, so I then switch the Black Dumpling to the Mushroom Crown. I drink another Cerulean Flask, drink my Physick (which has Thorny Cracked Tear and Stonebarb Cracked Tear) and then I self inflict poison with two Roped Fetid Pots. The Kindred of Rot's Exultation in combination with the Crown increases damage by 32%. Then I switch the Mushroom Crown to the White Mask and use Seppuku. The Lord of Blood's Exultation in combination with the Mask also increases damage by 32%. After this, I switch both the Kindred of Rot's Exultation and the Lord of Blood's Exultation to the Red-Feathered Branchsword and Claw Talisman. The RFBS increases damage by 20% when low on health, and the Claw Talisman when in combination with the Raptor's Black Feathers increases damage by 26.5%. After this I use Cragblade on my right hand armament and am ready to go. The real damage boost though comes from Millicent's Prosthesis, Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, and Thorny Cracked Tear which all stack together to boost successive attack damage. I don't know the exact numbers but the damage boost they provide is pretty insane and stacks on top of all the other buffs.
