To all ye who don the Pata, hear these words

[Succulent Green]

Thy foul pata rot players, spamming their running R2s, truly need to venture forth and touch the verdant grass.

To witness one of thee, corpulent and perspiring, greased up and charging at me with the most malodorous and cumbersome armour, is both sorrowful and repugnant.

[BushudoDragon]

indeed, these are the words of a sage

Isn't Pata considered sh*t because apparently it has no damage or something? Or was that patched out and its actually a viable weapon these days?
...
Or am i confusing it with Cipher Pata?... Is there a normal Pata?...

Ah, Tarnished, Forgive my lamentation. The Elden Ring DLC hath indeed introduced a weapon most vexing, easily obtained by those who sprint to its location. The weapon itself may be of no great concern, yet it is the manner of its wielders that doth trouble me. These "piglords," employ fast rot grease and rely solely upon the running R2 attack, which, alas, remains bugged and permits a true combo on an R1.

My frustration is palpable, for I seek to experiment with intriguing builds, whilst others resort to the simplicity of the "best PVP build SOTE" as found through mere googling. It is a sad state of affairs, indeed.

Mayhap I wilt find solace in the knowledge that my creativity and perseverance set me apart from the rest.

[ShaiHullud]

Indubitably. Thine lamentations and observations do indeed reverberate through the great echoing halls. The rewards of independent thought and creative difference be upon you.

Sounds like a skill issue.

I don't recall that, I previously used the katars and I think the pata are a negligible difference weaker than katar for it's absolute monstrous range in camparison. I use keen pata as well.

[Gamerzilla]

Know what beats people trying to face-charge you with patas? Shield crash counter to their face XD.

[nfinite.recursion]

Blame not the Pata or its detestable users, but thine own lack of skill.

Yep, it's a DLC weapon that looks like the retracting blades used by Weapon 11 in X-men Origins: Wolverine.

You have to switch into hyper-armor as fast as you can, in that case.

But, if you don't want too....

Yes, most unfortunate that I live in a third world country with terrible internet.
