Any weapon is good if you like it enough, I've been glued to my longsword since I got it.

Its just this requires twinkling which is why I'm asking. How is Murakumo too?

It's a good weapon, but curved swords are not in rapier/straight sword tier, that's all.

Storm Curved Sword is better.

The sword only has one positive redeemable value. The pontiff one that is. It is secretly a lot longer than it looks and that is due to the weapon art. LT then Rt and look at a sword longer than a spear for a second and a half. Ontop of that, it stacks frostbite.

So then what's a good curved sword?

I just want a flashy weapon that works well in a quality 40/40 build

Then if you have this sword you have one. It has excellent stun lock and gets to 394 fully upgraded at 40/40. Use the Dex Ring, and Pontiff's right eye right are a must.

You might like the Carthus Curved Sword, dropped by skeletons in the catacombs. I've been using a sharp infused version on my DEX build because I love the moveset, but it would work even better refined.

That's an amazing weapon and omg i dig it

Yup I like pontiff curved sword, also cool weapon art.

Ignore all of these comments honestly. Carthus curved and murakumo Crystal/lightning both rock.

They end up with S scaling. So essentially pick sorc or knight as your starter. snag weapon of choice if you want a curved sword. Infuse crystal or lightning.

Now take pyro glove and pick up rapport/flash sweat. I run both builds just with MLG/astora greatsword. Lothric knight sword is a good starter substitute.
