Dark Moon blade question

[Marky K]

is it better to not infuse the weapon when using this and what kind of infusion will be best if otherwise? Its kinda throwing me off since it does magic damage for a miracle. Thanks for the help guys!

it depends what your stats and the rest of your build is, when talking about infusion refined is the best as it gives scaling from both strength and dex but requires you have a lot of points in both (ideally 40/40)

if you infuse it with any fire/magic/what ever gem you wont be able to cast darkmoon blade or any other spell buff so id avoid it

EDIT
if you dont have many points in strength/dex for refined gem it will be better to make it a raw weapon as this removes all scaling

[Vinyltavia]

all weapons you infuse should be physical in some respect along these lines.
Raw
Heavy
Sharp
or Refined
if it's Hollow you're probably in the SL 120 meta or above.
