| StokedUp said: I'm not a fan of the ultra great swords, there too big, heavy and slow, they do a good amount of damage but I always find I slaughtered when fighting a dark phantom who has the normal greatsword weapons simply because they swing faster and take less stamina too do so. I'll stick to the drangleic+5 as it seems to be the best for me. I think the one sword that could be better is the mirrah greatsword because although it's max upgraded physical is 250 it has a bonus parameter of 'A' for dexterity and 'C' for strength while the drangleic is B for DEX |
Get a Mastodon Greatsword, infuse it with Lightning, upgrade it to +10 = Best Greatsword in the game.
At Lightning +10 it has 210 Phy/210 Lightning dmg, plus B scaling for Str, E for Dex and B for Faith (Since Lightning damage now scales with Faith). It easily goes near the 600 dmg mark, it's awesome for main game and NG+ and pretty useful for PvP.
Also, it's infusable with Sunlight Blade as well, if you opt to invest some points in Faith, so add an extra 50 Light base damage +30% increased Light damage.
