The way this Build works is that you'll use Bloodhound's Fang from almost the beginning the game, essentially after you defeat Bloodhound Knight Darriwil, which should be first thing. You should two-hand it and lean into its weapon skill: Bloodhound's Finesse as much as possible.

Bloodhound's Finesse gives you some i-frames during its initial attack animation, and some again when you dash forward and strike if you use the follow up attack. Practice using this ability early on in the game so that you learn these timings, and this will help you use this skill later on without getting hit while simultaneously dealing damage.

Utilize jump attacks with this build when you can as well since the Bloodhound's Fang has a higher Jump Attack Damage multiplier than other Curved Greatswords and also because you'll be wearing Raptor's Black Feathers and Claw Talisman, both further boost Jump Attack Damage. This gets even better in Journey 2 if you get a second Bloodhound's Fang!

Try not to focus on the Bleed Build Up of this weapon, since enemies will usually die before it triggers 9 out of 10 times, but you might be well off to use Blood Grease during Boss fights or other Greases to further boost your damage, so make sure to do this!
