Highest DPS curved sword?

I like Shotel as it goes through shileds, good for turtles. I like curved swords' moveset when powerstanced. So, with 50 str/50 dex which curved sword does the most dmg?

tnx

Slash weapons are pretty gimp on the long run, and Curved Swords are at the bottom rung of Slash weapons sadly.

The Red Rust Scimitar is pretty boss when powerstanced with Vengarl's other weapon though.

Curved Sword pretty much not for damage but for fancy moveset.

Curved Greatsword on the other hand, hit pretty hard. Dragon one is pretty much one of the very few boss STR/DEX weapon.

I was using a +7 Falchion for quite a while, but moved up to a good katana, the Blacksteel, which I've upgraded to +4. The falchion is fast and good for dealing with smaller enemies, particularly in areas where you get a lot of relatively minor enemies like the Gutter or Huntsmans Copse. But the katana is much more effective for my high dex swordsman build, fast and effective even for large enemies. The only problem is that ir's very heavy but with a small, light parrying shield it's not too much of a problem, I find it to be a very effective combination.

I'm asking mainly for pvp. You would be surprised how successful I have been with shotel powerstanced with sun sword.

Anyhow, upgrading red rust scimitar and the flexile senty sword now to try them

Dont bother with the flexile senty sword the Murakumo is lighter has the same move set and will do a lot more damage (+ it upgrades with regula titanite not 15 dragon bones)

The Warped Sword (Curved Sword) is better than Arced Sword (Curved Greatsword) due to its moveset. It's frigging fast, powerstance strong attack is double spin compared to normal curved sword.

Warped sword, except more people seem to use it offhand than anything. Falchion is a pretty popular offhand as well.
Then there's the monastary scimitar, which everyone used it for one reason only.

The curved sword moveset is great for aggressive playstyle and punishing rolling.

I've had great results with the falchion.

I dual wielded a falchion and a warped swod for for time and had great fun with it. I recommend high endurance, even more so if you want to use the special spin attack.

It is very risquy, as it eats A LOT of stamina, but connecting with it usually results in a 1000-1400 damage combo. It's crazy, and it can be powerstanced with katanas and thrusting swords also.
