      Hey, if you're using only bubbles, why didn't you also get the int/arc bubble spells?(they're about the same as the ones from the weapon's but you need a staff for it)

    Hiyo, bubble build here! If you wanna become a bubble blowing baby here's some tips: +10 or +9 envoy longhorn, it scales best with faith. Wear carian filigreed crest as it helps alot when spamming your bubber shower. It's also a formidable strike weapon so you're not just limited to tasty bubs
    for full envoy drip try altered snow witch robe, astrologer gloves, envoy crown, and just about any leg piece (drip is optional).
    Definitely not the most op weapon but its up in the enemy melter gang and obliterates poise on larger enemies, 10/10 would doot n' toot again
