AnonymousWhat's the best "infusion" for this weapon? Im on ps3 version cause i can afford ps5
Unfortunately this is outclassed by the falchion on every infusion and stat level, unless you only have 8 strength, but then just put one lvl into strength. This is the best weapon in 1-1 though, so I use it then
- Anonymous
useful to know; the one-handed strong attack does more damage than the two-handed strong attack, which gives you reason to use it with one hand. also, i'm not sure if this is a curved sword thing but it seems to "stay on" enemy shields instead of bouncing back
I like this weapon a lot! Good damage and fast attacks! A fine weapon indeed!
