heavy great sword vs grafted vs ruin vs starscourge?

[Lycon]

Anyone can tell me how much dmg each of them does when upgraded? Wiki doesnt have the stats. so far I have grafted at lvl 6 and heavy greatsword at +9 but the grafted does a crap ton more dmg with less scaling even and is 3 lvls lower? So might not be worth upgrading the heavy greatsword? Idk how it is in the end terms.

+9 somber is something like equivalent to +20 regular stones.
Boss weapons generally have unique weapon arts but a lot of them you can get ashes for. Just keep your eye out.

yeah thats the big downside about those ashes, you cant change them and make them scale to STR, thats why Im thinking about sticking to the heavy greatsword

Never upgraded the grafted but Starscourge does more damage than great sword but then it is magic+physical, so against certain enemies it may do less damage.

My corrupted save character had +9 royal greatsword +9 starscourge and +23 Frost infused greatsword and Royal greatsword had almost 100 damage on the other two.
Frost infused greatsword does more damage than a heavy greatsword @ 50 str and 25 int.

How good is the Royal Greatsword at staggering ultra large enemies with it's weapon art? I am talking about large enemies like the Black Kindred Spirit (Mini-bosses like the big gargoyle outside beast sanctum)

Since it has such a loooong animation

The thing is the first hit doesn't do much but the explosion deals the big chunk of the damage and it staggers bigger enemies. But mind you that you can get staggered too mid animation(if they hit you before the explosion)

Yes, it is the gats sword with a cold infusion.
