What's the best technique to accomplish a good Text Stroke?

I’m trying to achieve the best look possible on a Text with a big stroke.

Using a Edge TOP or the Text TOP Stroke mode don’t give good results. The best look I was able to achieve was through Bloom TOP but it’s not perfect.

While some characters look ok, some look really bad - the M for example. Also the D should have a clean edge on the straight part and it doesn’t.

Do you have any other idea for a better technique?

Thank you!
