r1 is a basic light attack r2 is a heavy attack on controller

Except they're not

Being a dual-wielder myself, I feel your pain. For sure once I get my first one, I'm just gonna get a friend to dupe it with. Ain't got time for that ****.

it does kinda make sense, given you'll be killing tons of weaker enemies and fewer stronger enemies, but all drop rates for weapons and armor could use a raise, 0.5% is pretty ridiculous for an estoc but golden

Because its supposed to be rare swag, be happy they didnt lock anything super useful or strong behind a drop rate like this….oh wait golem arrows

It does. Base requirement stat can be wielded by prophet. For min maxing at low level it has its uses.

For min-maxing minimum requirements. Only thrusting sword that can be used by prophet at min str and dex.

It's a pretty good thrusting sword if you're high dex/int and go keen or frostbite.

The Frost scaling for This and the Nobles Slender sword is higher then other weapons in there category.

Primarily scaling with Dex makes is a pretty good low stat investment weapon for Soell casters.

The noble slender sword has the longest reach as well, which makes me assume this also has the longest reach in category. But haven’t tested it.

fair enough, it's probably because I hadn't tested it extensively, but I may give it another shot, and compare it to the slender sword.

I see two comments on how the prophet can wield these without any investment and now I feel called out.

On my first playthrough I sold it thinking that it wasn't a good weapon, why did I do this to myself?

it took me 160h to even know that they drop any weapon - i tried to get one during my first playthrough and haven't looked into the wiki for it, i've farmed for 2 h and thought they aren't dropping any weapons, lol
