Dual weilding these and being part of a 3 man gank squad is a true combo

Possibly my favorite weapon in the game and the reason I went from Faith to Dex/Faith

The AoW benefits from Lightning Scorpion Charm, Shard of Alexander, and Godfrey Icon because it's chargeable.

I have no input on PvP because I'm not interested in it, but if your power fantasy in this game is hurling lightning this, along with Keen affinity Thunderbolt, was way more fun IMO than pure Faith because you also have solid melee options as well.

Why it doesn't have faith scaling?! I wanted to make a cool flashy lightning warrior build, but due to it being mainly DEX my lightning dmg feels lacking compared to previous build.

With a summon and the right talismans once upgraded enough, this thing turns astel into an absolute joke. Lmao

The sit at the end of colosseum and spam your -80% hp ash. It's even more silly because it's on spears. Let's just say nobody is using this un-powerstanced. Unfortunately, even if you're spatially aware enough to not die to this, your teammates won't be.

People with faith builds whining because only 99% of the flashy weapons in the game require faith and this one doesn't

The ash of war on this is bit too costly for what you get from it, A +25 Keen Great Knife with Thunderbolt can outperform this on a FP/damage ratio and is much faster to perform and vastly cheaper stamina wise. For a Legendary Armament to be outperformed by a generic dagger in it's unique aspect is a bit of a let down. If this costed 20FP it would at least be competitive enough to be interchangeable but currently if your target doesn't suffer knockdown from the charged shots then just use a great knife and and find a high DPS offhand weapon to use with the now free 7 units of weight.

everyone saying this thing is a dex weapon, when technically it has higher ar on a quality build, still definitely usable as a dex weapon but technically it is a quality weapon

This weapon should scale with faith so stupid that it doesn’t
