Greatsword of Artorias Vs Cursed Vs Abyss Greatsword
In your experiences, which one of these is best? I have never used these before, and would liek to roleplay as artorias (or maybe just a paladin.)

Also, if you guys have any good stat builds I would appreciate it.

Thank you.

in my opinion, Abyss Greatsword is the best (good movementset + good physical (only) damage)

Looking at that now. Also, it scales with only 2 stats instead of 4, meaning it can reach high damage quicker. The greatsword of artorias reaches over 650 AR at 40 + stats though...

i wouldnt take any of these weapons as main weapon since i cant enchant them but i use the sword with holy dmg when i am in the catacombs and the sowrd that can attack ghosts when i am in new londo ruins, besides that i think they are only good for roleplaying.
if i had to choose i would choose a weapon that deals only phys dmg.
on my 300+ char i have all of these swords and although i have 40+ in all dmg stats (str dex int fth) i feel the dmg is not sufficiant.

The abyss greatsword does all physical damage. I wouldnt just be using melee however, I would be using sorceries or miracles

Anyone else have opinions? I wan't to make a decision ASAP.

At the moment I'm pointed towards Abyss

If you are set on one of the 3 , id probably go for the Abyss.

Abyss. If you have the stats, it will become the strongest physical weapon out of all greatswords with 10 humanities. It will require at least 24 points spread out in 22 str and 20 dex in order to surpass great lord greatsword and 15 points to surpass obsidian.

I guess I'm going abyss. Stats I think I will go with are:

30 Vit
40 STR
40 DEX
30 END
12 ATT
18 INT
30 Faith (For DMB if necessary, and other offensive miracles)

Thoughts?

For me, the blessed version does the most damage.
