Claymore vs Banished knights greatsword vs knights greatsword vs flamberge vs zweihander

[bladeofmiquella]

Hey guys which one of these are the best one for pve on your opinion? And are they good when the swords are holded by one hand?

Played claymore + shield whole game, knowing 2h is better. Did Malenia with it. I think its good enough.

Just play the weapon you "feel" the most for you.

It is all about personal preference. I love the Claymore and it is my favorite weapon since dark souls 1, but all of the above mentioned are good in its own way. I would say banished knight great-sword is a good second place for me.

i like all very much, i use claymore in pve most of the times because of its unique R2 thrust attack. It also benefits from the spear ring. iirc it scales the best of all three with strength infusion too. Only like 15 AR but that's something. they are overall very similar.

the r1 r1 from the knights swords come quicker on the other hand. try the movesets and decide.
