Is it me or is the Chaos blade a tad underpowered?
I'm running a Battle cleric, and i found it fun to use a katana. I been using a Chaos blade and i maxed it out, I came to realized that it isnt as powerful as i thought it would be, Its a special weapon so it can't be buffed with Resin's or spells. If they either add some more damage to the weapon, or Add the ability to buff it to even it out that would be fair IMO.

Nah it's good as it is, it has S scaling in dex and it was overpowered in previous games.

It's actually one of the more balanced weapons.

katanas are cancer. Why do you think we nuked Japan twice?
Okay the thing is it's a dex weapon for pure dex build. You don't use Chaos Blade for basic damage, you use it cause with 40 Dex, it has the highest damage of all Katanas, even when the normal one are Sharp Infused.
But yeah let's just, you know, bring back Dark buffed Dark Chaos Blade you know, it's just too weak for a build that shouldn't focus on Dex.

Washingpole is the best katana. Chaos Blade doesn't even come close.

I don't even use katanas, but I'm really happy about the nerf. That weapon is pretty absurd. I just thought it was common knowledge that it was the best, bar none.

By range, it is but otherwise, Chaos Blade is superior : longer than all of the other Katanas and the highest damage at 40 Dex compared to all the other ones.

No need to buff if you're good at the game. :lev:

Chaos blade... for me, the best katana.

- Amazing damage with ONLY DEX investment, no STR.
- Has the same parry frames, startup and active, as caestus. The other katanas have a parry like Medium shield, according to the testings (no info about black blade)
- Does not need to be buffed or resined (cant). After 60-90 seconds, when the enemy buff runs out, your katana gets the highest damage for the whole fight. A worst starting, but the better average damage.
- Cheap battle arts (Washion pole battle arts are EXPENSIVE)
- Good range, second better after washing pole, but read previous point

I LOVE WEAPONS that cannot be resined or buffed, or infused weapons that gets the better average power and also cannot be buffed or infused. All my weapons in my game were non-buffable ones (Chaos blade, Morion blade, Black knight sword, Bleed Corvian scythe)

It's not that, but what i said. Non-buff weapons have a better AVERAGE damage, and wins when the other weapon loses the buff, just dont allow them to buff again and GG. I personally hate buffs and resins, it's just whatever playstile you like, buffable weapons are not better
