Is this the best weapon in Dark Souls 3? Those rolling r1s and charge attacks are wicked. Dragonslayer Swordspear and Anri's Straight Sword also come to mind.

Just don't be mentally retarded and you won't ever need anything else.
>playing on easymode
nah, fuck off
But user, you need to invest significant levels in mental retardation to meet that weapon's base requirements.
Anri's Straight Sword was already listed, and it straight up outclasses the dark sword. Better damage for less investment and that sweet sweet passive healing. Not to mention Carthus Rouge and mad fashion souls.
only good for ganking and if you have a healthy amount of lag
>fallen knight set
I have a 100% loss rate to Yhorm's, so that has to be good as well.
From what I can tell. It's hitbox is cone shaped rather than actually straight, so a guy can hit me while I'm rolling past him.
>he doesn't use the fallen knight set and the dark sword for maximum edge
No, this is.
Add it onto the list. I think they're all top contenders. That reminds me, does the Dragonslayer great axe live up to the hype or does it just exist to steal a few kills by one shotting bads?
It's good, but not hype-worthy.
The weapon art is fun to flail around with, but is very easy to avoid.
It's moveset is just a slower and clunkier Yhorm's.
Why is so good?
The rolling R1s are bugged so if it's ever fixed (lol) it will be shit-tier compared to other UGS.
Good range, great scaling and it's good at stunning enemies even if you miss. My only big complaint is that it has no horizontal range as from it's weapon art.
Free second hit for each successful first hit
Why do you say that? Its scaling and moveset are top tier, it has more going for it than just the rolling r1.
Charge is a big deal.
Why anyone would use this ugly fucking weapon is beyond me.
For the flips of course.

That's not Artorias'ssword.

Arty may have the somersault, but it doesn't have the edgy cape twirl.
Shit tier was probably too harsh. Chaos/Lightning infusions will still find use but for quality builds it will be outclassed by higher damage UGS like Profaned. The WA is easy to avoid and parry though, so I wouldn't consider it a big deal.
That's not a flip.
But that isnt BKG
Can't you just hyper armor through the estoc for 2 hits?
The Dark Sword's R2 has you flip the sword upwards and then behind you.
Then you do a slight cape twirl to realign yourself.
I don't know, I think it's one of the best
moves around for punishing retreat/estus. Scaling puts in on par with profaned if you buff it but I agree if it didn't have the thrust trait on the rolling attack it might fall short.
Just a pitiful wave. From a pitiful sword. Essentially tipping your fedora, in cape form.
>kick
>character just r1s
>both you and the enemy at 1hp, do a quick r1 with an opening
>character kicks
Play a Khajitt and then your claw attack will fix that.
What
once the rolling r1 gets fixed it'll just be okay
