You're not wrong, but the extended roll is more likely going to make those three hits into two for a newer player anyway, and I'd say it usually turns 10 hits into 3, thus being a far better choice.
Just looked this character up, and I had a very similar looking build in DS3 once! So basically the same concept, but prioritizing a greatshield first.

For how much effect armor has in most of the game's play, light roll is a far better choice. Well played, Chad-Dexter, well played.

Dying in three hits instead of two is a big advantage in both learning patterns and taking heals. Jus' saying

Variety is important to adapt to different situations. That's why I carry a Large Club and a Great Club.

Armour is only useful if you get hit.
Git gud, learn the boss pattern, and bonk mfers with big ass swords

I only play games where stealth archer builds are viable.

It's not bad, but it's sort of like min-maxing. You're a glass cannon.

aka the optimal build, once you get good.

So what would Maple from Bofuri be? The walking fortress?
