Why can't I use greatswords?
I'm a Fighter, the class of weapon is fighter, I tried saving my game then using cheats to get to max level, still can't use them. What is it? Why can't I use greatswords? I'm cosplaying Guts so its really important that I'm able to use them.

Also no need to be an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ to other people.

What did You mean by "TC"? Can You explain?

That gay-dude inside BBI dungeon sells good weapons for beginning (not only two handers). You don't need to fight anything to get to him, just run forward. He is in second BBI floor. Same weapons can be looted in same location too, so better loot around before buying anything from him.

For better two-handers You can:
- dwelve deeper to BBI for weapons from chests like Triple Tooth (this example is looted in right side chest in first from left skeleton key locked cell in specific floor with black zombies) (You don't need to fight anything there too, skeleton keys are in same location),
- dwelve deeper to BBI to get Bitterblack Weapon lvl1 <there are guaranteed chests which can drop it in Midnight Helix, You don't need fight anything here too except some weak @ss worms> and either be lucky or save scam before getting lvl 1 Weapon Pile and warping and defiling. There are 2 hammers and 2 longswords in lvl 1 pool. Or don't waste Your time on save scamming and after getting lvl 1 BBI Weapon just generate wanted lvl1 weapon with Cheat Engine and discard lvl 1 pile, but anyway, it's required lvl 32 to not get drastic stamina penalty from using bbi lvl1 weapons,

You can't get better weapons before Gran Soren than from BBI.

You can explore BBI for good stuff until You get to giant @ss eyezor - You actually need to destroy him to proceed, which can be near impossible at beginning of game.

yeah, the level 50+ roadblock.. Gazer does his job well doesn't he?

point is you DO NOT have to Gran Soren to swap classes, it can be done from Cassardis by going to BBI, whether or not you enter it, that's up to you.

whats more, IF you did swap classes, and didn't have a weapon, you would still be gaining DP from the stuff your pawns kill, you simply retreat to a easier area and go kill wolves and goblins until you either find one or buy one, as boring as that is, and it is boring.

I have always stuck with my first vocation until i max it out personally.

EDIT: Ser Bernes quest comes out of Gran Sorens Inn, so scratch that part.
easiest thing is have someone send you some BBI L1 weapons probably and run you through a small bit of BBI for some RC.

Who said You need to swap classes there? Olra is good boi.

Ye Gazer is good roadblock.

Personally I do unwanted classes with wanted augments first.
At the end I stick to my wanted class.

Autonomy,Clout,Vehemence,Fortidude,Bastion,Ferocity forever, Warrior til I die.

To tank everything at beginning of game, lvl 1 of Mystic Knight and Warrior skills, I mean Fortidude+Bastion will makes most of enemies deal You 1 damage. Even on hard mode where those skills are buffed x times as wiki is sayin. Just some pro tip to survive, even while solo.

no she doesn't and you won't, not one for sale anyways.

the most failproof way to get one is ser bernes quest, which comes up pretty quickly, if you give him gift while your there at the encampment in "training" with him., you can leave training and go to Cassardis and his quest should be available, might want to do the quest before switching.

there are ways to come up with two handed weapons legit.

look at this post: https://steamcommunity.com/app/367500/discussions/0/451850849197497744/
Okay, That does indeed sound like a great way to set up a warrior quickly then. What little I have played I never understood the point of gifting NPCs stuff cause I never knew they give useful stuff, or even quests.

we use OP for that (Original Post(er)).

also, about ser berne, his quest comes up inthe Gran Soren Inn, I went back and checked.. so you can scratch that for now, but somethign to keep in mind for when you get there.

between all i have typed, and Squerols typing and that thread you should be off to a good start.

Bruh, grow up. Stop trying to be a jerk for the sake of being a jerk. You are literally burying yourself in a grave labelled "White knight" I used cheats to find out if I could even use the greatsword, I couldn't, now I know because Honzou was helpful, unlike you.

Did you know: You literally could've googled it?

I think the devs should only be commended. Giving me hundreds of hours of gameplay, and not chopping it into pieces making me pay for every piece. Only takes a second to google the requirments for using a greatsword.
