What's the best weapon in the "soulsborne" series and why is it pic related?
Though let's be honest, everything in Bloodborne stomps all over Souls weapons except the tonitrus, that shit sucks ass

I don't get why everyone shits on the tonitrus. I used it on a STR/ARC run and loved it, anything weak to lightning got fucked.
>>
>>377902268
>anything weak to lightning got fucked
Anything weak to lightning is also weak to thrust, since the only thing weak to lightning is kin. Oh, and bolt paper/bolt gems exist. Tonitrus has shit range and the moveset doesn't change when "tricked" it's just a shitty buff

Every weapon besides tonitrus is perfect

Personal favorite is the bowblade, really fun in coop
>>
>>377903178
I tried making a STR character just so I could use this, kirkhammer, boom hammer, and beast claws

Beast claws felt like shit, boom hammer felt too niche, kirkhammer is satisfying as fuck. Amygdala arm was fun, but holy FUCK does it drain stamina. On the plus side, it's surprisingly versatile. The untricked charge attack just shits out burst damage and throws the enemy away to let me recover stamina, and the tricked mode has a good AoE R1. Plus, clawing at people with the nail from a long-ass distance is fucking fun.

Tonitrus is pretty great for getting you past the "lol no spells" part of an arcane build. It's only sins are being a bit boring and surprisingly brittle.
>>
>>377903391
>Beast claws felt like shit
wat
Beast claws were fucking awesome
>>
>>377903391
Beast Claws are pretty fun if you have the transformation rune. That jump attack hits like a truck and it's super satisfying.
>>
>>377903326
Nothing wrong with tonitrus besides limited move set. I kind of like having to give it a jolt to power it up.

the only fun weapon in DaS2. Too bad it took until the last DLC for it to be added.

anyways. BB also has the best iteration of the MLGS

Its not bad, its just not quite as fun as the other weapons

My friend fucking loves this weapon but I can't get into it

Sure it's hilariously long range with tricked R2s, but it feels surprisingly narrow, it feels bad that it can't be charged, and it eats stamina like nothing else

If I want long range I generally just go pic related, as I said earlier it's secretly the best weapon
>>
>>377903541
>casually strolling up to and past you
What the fuck was the thinking behind this? A bad connection is the only logic I can think of here
>>
>>377903541
It looks so good in BB. Both the regular un-transformed greatsword version and the proper Moonlight transformation are gorgeous.

DaS2 has got to have the ugliest looking iteration. It straight up looks like a toy.
>>
>>377903513
I tried them with the transformation rune. It felt BETTER than without it, and that jump attack is fun, but it also feels awkward to land, and the beasthood mechanic that I was excited for turned out to be really awkward to use in practice, even with high beasthood armor.

>>377903520
Why not just use the boom hammer? It has the same "buff the weapon instead of changing the moveset" thing, but a much more interesting moveset and also the ability to fucking explode.

>>377903747
I tend to play rushdown characters in fighting games, so I treat certain weapons in BB like that. I posted the Saif, and the spacing is stellar with that weapon. Keep up the assault, then transform to back away to a safe distance. Same with the Beast claws, only you've got to pick your openings more carefully. Keep on the pressure and - if you've got the rune - scream to stagger them so you can get to safety and recover stamina.
>>
>>377904036
Ah. Yeah, I don't really play much in the way of fighting games. I play Ness in party platformers, but he's fucking weird.

I just REALLY like gunlance. I like things like gunlance. Rifle spear is like gunlance. It's also incredibly satisfying to run at someone from way the fuck away, then even if they hit you you heal back half the damage they did thanks to rally.

Also fun is the moonlight greatsword, since it's fucking manly and throws sonic booms at people, and the kirkhammer, since it has the monster hunter hammer golfswing after the charged pound.

I really liked the tonitrus, I thought it was really cool with the lightning and it seemed to do very decent damage to a lot of enemies. Sure it wasn't as crazy as other weapons but it was pretty cool nonetheless.

Also I think Dark Souls and Bloodborne perfectly illustrates the point that quality>quantity when it comes to weapons.

Great damage, has a safe and versatile moveset while transformed, untransformed is even more safe. Can be had at the beginning of the game and scales wonderfully into the late game. It's basically why people love using the claymore in souls games, except this one gives you a free longsword to keep in your pocket.
>>
>>377905129
Am I the only one who thinks this doesn't even 'fit' the theme of BB? It's a fucking regular, boring greatsword meanwhile we have all different kinds of unique snowflake weapons
>>
>>377905562
In bloodborne, magic and faith are basically the same thing thanks to all the spooky cthulus

That's what happens when you wield a sword that ignores fucking shields. You think shoulders matter?
>>
>>377905816
It's fine its just light.
>>
>>377905628
Technically it doesn't belong in Bloodborne because it's based off the Holy Moonlight Sword, which is based off the Moonlight Greatsword which is kinda like an Easter Egg in almost every FROM game.
>>
>>377905597
Charged tricked R2?
>>
>>377905816
To the game's defense, I don't think that part of the sword is supposed to be solid.

>>377905816
It's a sword of light, powered entirely by your faith in God. Do you have faith? Umbassa.
