Kind of.

When people are reactive and know their timing you've no way of winning though.

Spacing and knowing when to special-attack is the most important part.

As main weapon? Maybe not.

As a devious sidearm? Yes. This "dark orb" secial attack can be nasty, if timed well.

I met a dude once, who used a sanctum crossbow and "tranquil walk of peace" to great effect.

If i remember correctly, the special attack shoul scale with "dark attack rating"

You want something dark infused.

Maybe a light weapon like a spear, curved sword or straight sword, so you can pump a lot of points into INT and FTH.

Anything works. Meta rules.

You want a hexer build.

Dark Silverblack Spear is a good choice for a dark based spear melee.

My hexer uses the sanctum crossbow to finish off chuggers. It can 2-shot people, but once they figure out how to dodge it you'll rarely hit them again.

Infuse it with dark and equip flynn's ring and dark clutch ring. The bracing knuckle +2 ring might help, since it breaks after using the special attack a few times. Fume sword, estoc/ice rapier, and silverblack spear are good weapons for a hexer.
