Broad Sword is a Straight Sword Weapon in Demon's Souls and Demon's Souls Remake. Straight Swords are ordinary swords that provide balance between slashing and thrusting attacks. Straight Swords can be held by the player with one or two hands.
A straight sword with a broad blade designed for slashing.
Slashing weapons inflict heavy damage on soft flesh but have a limited effect on metal armour and hard scales. Handily, this sword can also be used for thrusting attacks, which compensates for that particular weakness.

I love the sword, but I do wish Bluepoint fixed how your character hold the weapon. Choke up on the hilt more, like Dark Souls 3 with its Broadsword variation.

Kinda wish the handle was shorter, other than that I like how it looks

Probably my favorite sword in the game, grinding for the pure bladestone is rough but it's worth it. Great moveset, low stamina use, and you get it right out of the gate.
Best straight sword for dex builds. Sharp gets S in dex, has thrust attack and bleed AUX is a nice bonus.

Not only does this sword scale greatly with dex, it also causes bleeding by default; a very strange straight sword indeed.

Well heck this is a suprise! Broadsword as a dex weapon! Mind. Blown!

In the comparison table it says that it deals increased bleed damage...with the mercury infusion?
