King's Ultra Greatsword +5, one of the best weapons?

At +5, it has 450 base damage with S rating in STR and some DEX scaling as well. Anyone have this weapon? Share your thoughts?

It's not as good as it looks. The moveset is like a greataxe only a bit slower and takes up as much stamina as ultras but that's not the problem. I need to confirm this myself but I read that it uses attack multipliers from greataxes making it do less than greatsword.

Nope.

I've used it a lot in pvp. It hits like a truck, but:
1. It's far too slow.

2. It eats stamina like there's no tomorrow. If you want to have any mobility, you need at least 32 END with the third dragon ring. That allows you for two swings and a single roll.

3. It has high damage output and S scaling, but the scaling in game is TERRIBLE. At 75STR, the weapon does 450 + 200 damage. That's pathetic for what the weapon is, and you can easily outdamage that with a fast weapon infused with an element.

4. It's heavy as all ♥♥♥♥.
