What are your impressions of playing character classes in the Elden Ring Convergence mod, such as the Rot Servant?

For example, the Rot Servant starts the game in Caelid with few a spells and a rapier. The class is built around the Faith and Arcane stats, with very limited access to weapons. The build creators clearly encourage players to focus on those two attributes, which means that for most of the game you’re essentially stuck using the same weapon unless you start investing in Strength or Dexterity, which defeats the purpose of that particular build.
I have very mixed feelings about this. The gameplay becomes rather repetitive, restrictive, and heavily railroaded, leaving little room for experimentation or adapting the character in different ways. I am trying to find a way to enjoy it and so far it feels awkward.
