Sif is a very bad doggy and I suck at timing medium rolls for the one attack that actually can kill me when I wear armor. x10 (Dark Souls)
Basically from previous plays I figured out the best way for my "dex*" characters to beat Sif is to max poise while still having fast roll and don't mess up too much. Which is basically cosplaying as a Undead Berg hollow with a better sword. Trying this with a heavy str build resulted in death, as my attacks are much slower so my roll in, roll out strategy didn't work. So I elected to max defense with medium roll and have been sucking with dodging, which isn't too bad except for his one full spin, which just BECAUSE I have lots of poise it hits me twice.
*I don't actually ever have str/dex/burn it with fire characters until around Sen's, I have get-enough-primary-stats-to-use-the-weapon-then-stack-only-endurance-and-weapon-upgrades-so-I-can-roll-more-characters.
