Lothric Knight Greatsword build recommendations about Darkeater Midir
Midir has consistently been a thorn in my side for the longest time now. After DS3 I moved on to Elden Ring and defeated most bosses, base game and DLC (legitimately, albeit in a cheesy way). I still believe he will cause me problems cause it makes a long time I don't play DS3 and I have never been good at dodging. I managed to defeat all the other bosses from both DLCs so he's the only lizard boi left. What I noticed is that he doesn't have any "easier way" to do things, he dwarfs huge healthbars with single attacks as well as DPS based weapons' damage. Given that, I wanted the simplest way to cause massive damage and end the fight as quickly as possible (regardless if the build has to be a glass cannon, since he one-shots anyways), and it appears that the Lothric Knight Greatsword is the way to go, but I have never built around it and I'd like it to be specifically dedicated to the Midir bossfight. The info about him online seems to be very inconsistent so I wanted to get some different opinions.
TLDR: Any build suggestions using Lothric Knight Greatsword tailored specifically for Darkeater Midir boss fight?
