 Blade Dancer is mostly a aesthetic/thematic PvP/PvE build. Don't expect a lot of minmaxing in here..

• Build Name: Blade Dancer
• Build Level: 123
• Build Focus: PvP/PvE
• Build Main Stat: Dex
• Link to Dark Souls 3 Calculator: Will do when it has all the stuff.

Build Equipment

• Right Hand: Pontiff Knight Curved Sword/Falchion and Dancer's Enchanted Swords
• Left Hand: To the player's liking.
• Head: Dancer's Crown
• Chest: Fire Witch Armor
• Hands: Pontiff Knight Gauntlets/Silver Knight Gauntlets
• Legs: Fire Witch Leggings
• Rings: Carthus Bloodring and Cloranthy are mandatory. Recommended are the Carthus milkring, Hunter's Ring or Scholar Ring. Darkmoon Ring (in case you want to use more spells), Farron Ring for more spin2win fun and Pontiff's Right Eye just in case.
• Spells: Carthus Beacon. Carthus Flame Arc for the Falchion (if used). Whatever else is left to the player.
• Items: Buffs come in handy for the Falchion, in case you decide to use it.

Build Strategy

You can either go for the easy wins, buff yourself with the Carthus Beacon, equip the Pontiff's Right Eye and spin2win with the Dancer's Swords. Since the hits will be many, the effects of the ring and Beacon will stack, increasing the damage output of the weapon art, making an even more powerful spin2win. Baiting opponents always works. Otherwise, just hit them with L1 and chase them down when they roll away.

The other swords you can equip in the left hand, as both have a parry L2. If you get tired of the Dancer's Swords, which could happen, the Pontiff Knight Curved Sword is pretty good at baiting other players with it's weapon art. You could, of course, play "fair" and use Falchion. If so, use buffs. Those are still "honorable", and Falchion, by itself, is a pretty reliable 1v1 sword.

In case you're gonna use this for PvE, swap the Dancer's Swords for the Falchion. Pontiff's is still pretty good at crowd control, but Dancer's don't have enough length to reliably hit many enemies. Not before any of them stuns you out of the weapon art. Falchion is fairly reliable for dealing with one enemy, however. As it has higher physical than both Dancer's and Pontiff's.
