I had an idea to actually make the cane sword useful, and that is give it the abilty to be infused with the unsheathe AOW. Think about it, cane swords depicted in media are hidden in canes and can be "sheathed" back into its handle as a way to conceal. Imagine being able to have one of the best katana ashes of war on a straight sword. It would give it way more variety and make the sword stand out finally from the competition at least with that gimmick.
@mr.kittysavestheworld695 Жыл бұрын
That would actually be extremely cool. I'd use the cane for a themed build if it could do that. From really needs to stop doing this thing where they add weapons that are literally completely pointless (in the case of the cane, both physically and mechanically.) There is no possible design benefit whatsoever from intentionally making a weapon objectively inferior in literally every single way to an otherwise mechanically identical equivalent. They need _something_ special about them, even if it's not very good. I'm not saying every weapon needs to be "good," it just irritates me when they have _literally_ nothing to justify their existence in the game.

And even on my recent playthrough i got 2 of them just while killing the birds in the first, outside area (just past Gostoc and the hole in the wall), but it sems entirely random and sometimes weirdly favorizing certain characters, as when I actually wanted those for a build on another character i had to sit there and farm them for over an hour.

I'll make a call too: a straight sword unique with DS3 Valorheart moveset. It has such a cool two handed unique sword and shield stance but it had such poor scaling in DS3, nobody used it as it was not even good for PVE either. I'd love to see it revived in ER with a good buff to it. Too cool to be left in DS3 in that state.

A lot of people dont understand the subtle differences between all the weapons in a given class. This is good content, especially for new players. Your analysis of the weapons are pretty much spot on Edit: Actually, you can make a VERY good rot build with double rotten crystal swords, but only for invasions. In duels, they just end too quickly. But in invasions there is a lot more healing and eating R1s on rhe part of the host and summons. Fights last longer, and rot with those swords will help chip away at them and apply lots of pressure. If you use double rotted crystal swords and combine that with the 3 shot crossbow with rot bolts, you will proc rot very very consistently even at level 168 and it's a lot of fun. I did a demonstration a long time ago. The benefit of those swords is that there is no need to buff.

If you didn't know using the lazuli and the carian straight swords together the heavy uses both swords to block as heavy. You should do a full pvp build based around dual stancing them!
@marcinolszewski226011 ай бұрын
My favourite: 1. Carian Knight Sword. The 1H R2 is just so good at rollcatching and breaking poise plus it works great with spells despite mediocre int scaling. I rarely go for a block while attacking but it is one of the most satisfying things to land in the game 2. Coded Sword. My main and only weapon on my INT+FTH build, cause it has no str/dex requirements so I can use all my points into stats that matter on this build. It works great with some swordceries, explosive ghostflame and briars of sin for a hyperarmor when needed. And I like the looks of it as well as the weapon skill. 3. Warhawk Talon. Love the R2, that's it.

Weathered Straight Sword has the lowest stamina consumption per swing of the Straight Swords (didn't check if it was better than Shortsword, or tied, but has slightly better AR and reach than Shortsword) So a build to try with it that may only be viable in PvE is powerstanced straight swords with blood affinity. Seppuku on the left sword, repeating thrust or another multi-hit AoW on the right. White Mask, and naked for the rest. Blue Dancer Charm, Winged Sword Insignia, Millicent's Prosthesis, and Lord of Blood's Exultation. Once you start with Seppuku, you have +10 from both White Mask and LoBE, and an additional +10 from Blue Dancer. Massive bleed build up just from how quickly you can swing, solid damage output with all the buffs active and the addition once Prosthesis and Winged Sword start building, and the warm satisfaction of melting people with two Weathered Straight Swords. Edit: or for even more lolz, you can throw Barbaric Roar on for the right hand AoW and get that buff and silly stabby R2s.
