      The M16 of the Souls series. Went through most of the original game with fluted armor and this baby, doin it again almost 15 years later. Quick sweeping R1s for just about any situation, a deceptively longrange R2 that can defeat the miners in 2-1 and safely poke many dangerous enemies, and it's 2H R1 is good for catching crystal lizards.

        I don't know why they don't make the straight sword pommels look cool like this anymore in Souls games. Instead they're always those big round ones!

          This was my main weapon in my time with Demon’s Souls and seeing it’s exact moveset return in the remake gave me chills.
