Moonveil Katana
Not that I've tried every weapon/ability in the game, but I've tried a nice few and this weapon is so leaps and bounds better than anything I checked out. The speed, reach and overall damage with this thing is wicked. They need to buff other stuff like claymore :)

I think moonveil should be nerfed, instead.

Moonveil has damage that's significantly higher than is appropriate on its weapon art, any weapon that isn't similarly broken looks bad in comparison
the claymore is already lightyears ahead of moonviel, because you can throw any number of much more broken arts on it.

moonviel only has even halfway decent damage with heavy stat investment. you make it sound like people are rocking it with base stats and nuking things. it literally hits for 100 damage at base stats. by the time you have enough stats to have it deal heavy damage, you can be firing off spells that do much much more.

MoonVeil needs a buff.

Claymore lightyears ahead of the katana? I'd like to see it. I tried a bunch of arts on a claymore and a couple did a litte more damage than transient moonblade but not enough to justify how much slower the claymore abilities are.

the game isnt about spamming arts of war nonstop, but there are plenty that are much better than moonviel. stormcall i believe its called, an early one, gives you tons of hyper armor while you rapidly whip your weapon around and hit the enemy multiple times.

eh moonveils like okay i guess, people complain about it although if you're decent maybe even slightly less than bad, you can just roll through the slashes, they're pretty predictable and they can't keep using them over and over they'll run out of FP. Git Gud situation. Strength isn't gonna be as good as Dex/Int, they slaughtered it this game; unless they buff strength its honestly almost not even worth using to be honest.

As a DMC pro, I really like it. That's all!

If you're running low poise it's nice to suddenly stagger things without a bazillion jump attacks. Definitely reduces difficulty for specific challenge types and is an excellent weapon, though I'm a bit if a hoar for hoarfrost stomp on uchi right now.

I use the Claymore with the "something Peeble" Ash of war. I agree with this, I like it more. Damage-wise, it deals about the same as the moonveil if not more if you buff it.

The moonveil is fine. Everything in this game one shots in PvP anyways, so there's no point in complaining about being one-tapped when you one-tap yourself.

I would love to be able to use Ashes of something (The summons) in PvP, as joining a 3v1 where literally everything one shots you isn't really that fun. I know you're not supposed to win every invasion, but holy ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ christ calm down.

Don't ask me for the names of the things I mentioned, as I'm really old-fashioned: Grace? Nah, bonefire. Runes? Nah, souls. Ash of War? Nah, Weapon Art.:steammocking:

Frankly, Uchi with Hoarfrost Stomp is probably equally good and better in certain scenarios.
