An Intelligence Build that uses the Carian Grandeur to one shot difficult tough enemies and some Bosses.
The way this Build works is that you'll use your Shield to Block Counter regular enemies around the landscape. You'll use Carian Grandeur to one shot anything that's more difficult, and you can use Loretta's Greatbow and Great Glintstone Shard to pick things off at range as necessary.
Greatblade Phalanx is used to help stagger an enemy when connecting with Carian Grandeur close to the time it lands. You can use Terra Magica to buff your Magic Damage before a tough fight if you have time, making you even more deadly.
Founding Rain of Stars works well for larger enemies, or those that aren't extremely mobile, like Dragons or Godskin Noble. Rykard's Rancor gives you a high damage Fire Spell you can use when enemies are highly magic resistant.
