Same but with the transformed Threaded Cane.

serration is nice but the moveset gets boring

You uploaded the wrong image.

Pretty much, even if you use other weapons people always keep this on standby, kitted out for fire or bolt.

you can pretty much use any weapon from start to finish in soulsborne games.

That’s not the hunters axe spin to win baby.

I don't know what they were thinking giving you this shit and the saw cleaver so early. Shit basically plays the game for you.

I never used it. Four out of the six people I know who played through all of bloodborne didn't use it for more than the beginning.

what makes a moveset boring?

SPIN

Same but with Burial blade.

Thats what makes BB so good. It has no throw away trash weapons that you use in the meantime until you get a good one.
Except for the fist but thats just for memes.

So all noobs know each other or something?

AXE is best weapon

The Cleaver is better than the Spear and looks cooler too.

>Except for the fist but thats just for memes.
Fuck off

whatever bloodborne weapon you use is cool

unless it's the sword

used the saw cleaver until I got the ludwig blade
after that it was the whirligig saw

Best moveset

>fist

you mean the stake driver? or the beast claw?

I use every single weapon aside from Ludwig’s Blade. Even the Kirkhammer is better because of its transformation.

>shit scaling

no.

it genuinely boggles my mind that no one uses the beast hunter saif, its the one weapon that actually makes good use of the transformation attack mechanic and because of that its fun as shit to use because it has useful and satisfying combos you can pull off

all the cool weapons you get so late in the game or in the DLC that it's not even worth it at that point

I'm assuming he literally means your fists. Unarmed.

It really is the best scythe weapon, especially in any souls game.
Sadly the frost scythe in dark souls 3 just isn't the same.

That's why ng+ exists user

Most people are too scared of NG+ but will still laugh at you for having trouble with a boss.
It's like they don't see the irony.

I used the boom hammer pretty effectively. I even beat Lady Maria with it. Still use it often. What are you bitching about?

>tfw fighting Ludwig for the first time now on regular new game
>still can't win
this is awful

I picked the cane and then the person who was walking me through my first session left call immediately. About twenty hours later I beat the game with that same cane.

Lulz

Cane for me, i cant use the other weapons

Who /amygdalanarm/ here?

this thing is legit with some xtra stam

I thought he meant the Fist of Gratia

It's the best pvp weapon, not the best pve. Stop reading tier lists and assuming what they mean.

Why are you not using the best literal weapon in the game?

>being such a shitter you need scaling

ffffffffffaaaaaaaaaaagggggggggggg

Came here to post this desu

Cleaver is unironically better though, since it's got the higher base damage. As these weapons are made for r1-spamming in 1h mode and nothing else, that makes it simply better in every situation.
If you pick Spear for "muh versatility" instead, you're doing it the fuck wrong and you only picked it instead of the Cleaver because a wiki told you to do it.

>doing nothing but spamming charged r2s
There are even better weapons for doing that

The thrust damage the saw spear has is useful for the ayy lmaos

>obtained for dirt cheap after killing one boss
>gets nearly all its damage from a single stat
>incredibly versatile moveset
>ridiculous combos from transform attacks
>staggers literally everything
>it's a fucking SWORD with a fucking HAMMER
Why aren't you using the best weapon in Bloodborne?

Attached: weaponfu.png (249x250, 103K)

Because it does shit damage for its weapon speed

It's not the Stake Driver.

>not full proper combo ending with l1

scrub

I love big hammers and my brother loves greatswords. The two of use felt like legit partners when we played through this game; that was a ton of fucking fun.

pizza cutter is the best weapon change my mind

>it's a Bloodborne weapons thread
The comfiest shit. Simon's Bowblade a best.

anyone else feel like bloodborne dosent have a "best weapon"? i honestly believe every weapon is just as good as the next.

that is some top teir fashion

Just put heavy abyssal blood gems on it my dude

many are weaker but there are many strong wep choices to be had

It doesn't really, even if LHB is my fave. Arguably a few clunkers but pretty much all of them are good

I fucking love the chikage

I've only used the saw cleaver so far. Want to try other stuff soon though, I love the transformation attacks.

don't tell anyone man

I've enjoyed duels where people panic after one poke shaved off 30% of their health

Attached: whirlgig_saw.jpg (250x251, 13K)

I fucking love this thing, it's a shame you get it so late

The only correct answer.

>use boom hammer
>could be using the logarius wheel instead

But that is already my favorite weapon.

Wheel is a pretty close second though.

The Beasthunter Saif will never be surpassed as my favorite 1h R1 spamming weapon
>first attack lunges in, low stamina use, superb S scaling with SKL
It's good shit my man

>What are you bitching about?

The fact that it's kinda ass?

god how the hell can one weapon be so fucking perfect
all other weapons are good too.

Attached: beasthunters_saif.jpg (250x251, 8K)

I've never liked the feel of it honestly

i love its folded r1 that lets you charge forward for a strike, it catches everyone off guard. then use its transform attacks to back away while doing damage and then other transformer attack to close the distance again while dealing damage. its so goddamn versatile. its probably my all time favorite weapon

meant for

>What were they thinking giving you the poster-weapon this early?

Yeah, should'a been like DS2 where the Faraam set can't be found until 2/3 into the game.

>tfw started my first playthrough with threaded cane
>making ARC build so ended up using saw cleaver anyway for the waning slot
>can't be a 'spellcaster' equivalent in this game since every good offensive tool is over halfway through the game (executioner gloves, augur of evrietas, tiny tonitrus, a call beyond) or locked to DLC when they feel like they should be im the base game (blacksky eye, accursed brew)
at least you can get flamesprayer like right after gascoigne

I love that you can actually damage Rom's children with it from the front.

You can literally change the lowest E-scaling in the game into A scaling with the right gem combo.
Complaining about bad scaling in Bloodborne is fucking retarded with how much you can change that shit.

>r1-spamming
Lower dps than spamming transform attacks.

Did this with the halberd in Demon's Souls. Is it the best weapon? I dunno, I only ever used the halberd.

Love it the weapon. Comboing is its biggest weakness though. It's not so much that it can't, but they carefully designed all of its followups to either have shit range or be really slow.

They gave it the best spacing moves in the game though. godly step attacks

It's very strong, one of the best if not tied with a couple others.

I do feel like bloodborne shot itself in the foot a tiny bit with it's starting weapons. In any other given souls game you could also do just as well with your starting weapons, with the exception of a few outliers, but there were almost always stronger weapons to find compared to what you started with. With bloodborne's relatively small collection of weapons they really needed to make sure everything could clear the game just as well as anything else, which can make the game a bit bland for challenge runs or level 1 attempts.

I can't really blame them, all things considered. There are so few people that even complete games like this that trying to balance everything around people who will finish the game and then actively seek more challenge is an outright waste of time.

>suggesting people use one of the least useful weapons with the most awkward moveset in the game

literally off yourself

>not going cleaver arcane build

The absolute madman. I've honestly never been able to make an Arcane build work. It always feels like you're never supposed to focus on arcane shit, but rather use it to supplement the rest of your kit with all the hoops you have to jump through to get things properly up and running.

It's beyond me why they made this shit. It's one of the coolest weapons in the game. It's a goddamned rocket hammer, how do you fuck it up?

I tried so hard to justify to myself that it was ok after I made a build just for it...

Absolutely loved it
Used saw speal till I could access the DLC then just rush to the saif

At least there are other weapons that could use those stats.

Anybody else here fall in love with the rifle spear?

eh, it works for single player at least. I dunno about PVP. You can spam Executioner's Gloves safely to deplete nearly all the HP of tough bosses like Ebrietas, and then you just use your cleaver.

What the hell are you guys on about? I used it for the entirety of my last playthrough and thought it was overpowered with how effective it was. The jumping transformed attack alone makes it worth it.

It basically resembles any other melee centric build in the game, except you do elemental damage instead of physical, at least until NG+ when you get a hold of all the tools and can play like a utility class. In the early game you'll be using upgrades and whatever gems you can find do all the damage for you until you find 3 non-shitty elemental gems.

Post Bloodborne weapons IRL.

See this? It's a gold-plated, engraved spear with THREE guns at the head that trigger when you stab someone.

It's shitty until you get full arcane or beyond, then it's stupidly powerful. A very steep power curve.
