Idk i feel hollowslayer being at 24 is an injustice, that thing has good hyperarmor, damage, and the hollow bonus

i gotta say it seems a bit unfair to rank a weapon while also excluding its ability to use spells. that'd be like ranking a weapon but not taking the weapon art into consideration, only focusing on its r1's and r2's

The fact that you can get Vordt's hammer so early is nice as well. I used it basically the entirety of my strength run.

11:16 “I struggled to do anything past the first input” >proceeds to literally only show instances where the skill combo is perfect to use Can’t make this up, we will never escape the slander abyss bros 😭

Fun fact about the farron greatsword, its dual weild attack combo ducks under about 80% of attacks, basically anything that isn't a downward swing, lock on, or a grab is completely dodged by the first two inputs, the third one puts you in the air and is the only worthless part of it. Pontif basically cant hit you at all, and as thats what i used for up to like ng+4 i didn't know why people thought that fight was hard, casue he just never hits you

I think that for the average player the Farron Greatsword would rank much higher, as most players are a bit more risky and more willing to trade hits, making the L1 move set a lot more viable. Because of the crazy movement, you can often avoid attacks while attacking, which is very strong. The extra 20% damage to demonic and abyssal enemies is also very nice

Something you didn't mention about the farron greatsword is that you can actually combo the l1 into and from regular attacks (l1>r1>r1, r1>l1>r1, etc), which makes the weapon a lot more flexible and probably would've made it rank better.

Farron Greatsword is my favourite boss souls. When i got it in my first playthrough, i thought it wouldn't be viable. Then, I practice not using lock on for l1 attack and if you position the attack correctly. You can dodge enemy attack and simultaneously damage them. I fought gael and sister friede with the weapon and felt so cool doing it. Crushing the dancefloor with breakdance.

now rank all of sekiros weapons

The Hollowslayer Greatsword deserves better, I think. It is absolutely amazing in the early game, performing really well on any dex or quality build. Also, since it is a greatsword, it shines in PVP for rollcatching. It also just looks super good.

I love the Demon Scar. Once you're high enough level, it becomes the best pyromancer flame that also doubles as a pretty good sword.

Where's Gael's full auto crossbow

With every weapon I'm getting more and more excited to see the Dragonslayer Armor's Greataxe, which is one of my favorite weapons in the game and has a special place in my heart as the weapon I used to beat the game for the first time

Scholars candlestick looks great when you use sword spells because it looks like you're extending the blade on it and kinda gives it a new moveset, farron flashsword is light attack, magic greatsword is heavy attack and old moonlight for weaponart.

That intro made my ears bleed

I believe that the demon scare is the most unique I’ve seen in the souls games not the best but excellent for a pyromaniacs build

Did you use the hollowslayer on a pure dex build? Because it's actually more quality leaning. It gains very slightly more damage than Gael's greatsword on a 40/40 build but you can push it further by leveling strength to 26 to hit 40 when two handing then put as many levels into dex as possible.
