Washing Pole was shit even before the BS meta was widespread because it's slower than the Uchi.

It also has double the range, and backstep/running R1s always catch people off guard because of that range.

The Greataxe will always have a special place in my heart.
It was the first time in any video game I'd ever played where I could feel the weight behind every swing. Those animations still amaze me to this day, and they perfectly match the design of the weapon, not to mention how good the sound of it hitting the ground is.
It's so satisfying to use. No other weapon has ever been able to recreate that feeling for me.

> Almost exactly mfw.
I was so fucking hyped for a flaming sword, they're cheesy but they're my favorite magic weapon.
I guess it'd be extremely OP if it was.
>>
I'm actually playing a Quality build in DS1 right now. Though it's become more of a Dex build with the Murakumo. I fucking love that shit's move set.
>>
>>318294042
halberds are big and annoying
>>
isn't 300 bleed a bit overpowered?
I used the Uchigatana in my playthrough I actually bought it and it was a walk in the park.
>>
>>318295738
Range doesn't really matter. The only thing that matters is how much damage per BS you can pull. Not to mention you can poise a Washing Pole with only 36 if memory serves.

Besides, not counting backstabs, an Uchi poke is a few frames faster, just enough to dodge your attack. It also requires more investment to be as strong as an Uchi.

The Washing Pole is all around a terrible weapon.
>>
>>318296089
Backstabbed punished after missing your shitty attacks.
Walking backwards and pivot has nothing to do with your weapons, come on now.
>>
The last build I had fun with was based around the Gravelord Sword (only enough STR/DEX to 2H it, the rest into VIG/END)

The damage plus Toxic buildup is really good for the stats it requires
>>
>>318293990

This is the only right answer
>>
>>318296089
Sure, if you don't attack at all. Spears R1s are too slow, all your opponent has to do is equip Wolf + Hornet and fuck you up.
>>
>>318293552
For dex build Painting guardian sword or any other curved sword

For str build Demon Greataxe

There were a few weapons that I loved above all the rest

>Greatsword
>Golem Axe
>Stone Greataxe
>Smoughs hammer
>Large Club

I mean, poking things with the greatswords R2 is fun as fuck

Golem Axe R2 is amazing, even if the weapon in kinda weak

The stone greataxe is shit, but both of it's R2 attacks are fucking fantastic to me

Smoughs hammer if an awful weapon in almost all regards, but that rolling r1 has a massive fucking range and kills people dead. Literally the only good attack but it's fucking amazing

And the large club is just effective and fun.
>>
>>
>>318296450
>Range doesn't really matter
>The only thing that matters is how much damage per BS you can pull
I strongly disagree. And all the people who sent me hatemail probably also disagree.
But the rest you're right about, that's the trade off.
>>
>>318293552
Large and Great Clubs. I remember blunt damage being the way to go in a melee build in the Souls games. I usually run a STR build with pyromancy when I need some range in PvE. Too slow to be viable in PvP, but I suck at that anyways, so....
>>
I love the longsword.

Starting weapon, no bullshit.
>>
>>318297025
There are lots of shitters in DaS. Any good player will tell you the same: the only thing that matters is how reliably you can BS. It's the fucking meta, after all.

What good is range or even attacking when you can poise through it and deal three times as much damage?
>>
>>318293552
Bandit knife.
>>
>>318297030
>too slow to be viable in PvP

All you need is Poise m8
>>
>>318296681
>spear R1's are too slow

doesnt particularly matter when this faggot is in the middle of his slow ass washing pole attacks. why would i equip the leo ring if i wasnt going for counter damage?
>>
Great Scythe for PvE, Lifehunt Scythe for PvP
>>318296239
>buying the uchi
Why tho?
>>
Replaying the game right now and mainly using the claymore enchanted.
Never used katanas before so I got the chaos blade, but I'm not loving it.
>>
>>318297363
Wolf ring is my friend.
>>
>>318297491
its ok, excels in PvP but get the ring of the evil eye if you want it to be viable in PvE, otherwise youre just gonna be using all your healing items for no reason.
>>
>>318297612
I'm not sure excel is the correct word. The tradeoff is marginally longer range for chip damage per phantom hit.

Eh.
>>
what's a good Faith build for singleplayer?
>>
I'm glad there's still plenty of people playing the game on the 360.
The forest is a very strange place, I never know if It's gonna be another gank or a duel.
>>
>>318297491
>Never used katanas
>Starting with the chaos blade

Don't be an idiot. Every single other one is fine depending on your stats. I'm an Iaito kind guy myself.
>>
>>318298198
Washing Pole is slower and Iaito weaker.
>>
>>318293653
I don't care if everyone uses it, pancaking everything is fun.

God I love this game so much.
>>
>>318298326
So? At least they don't literally drain your health after every single hit you land/barley miss.

Besides, Iaito has a much better moveset, with a horizontal R2 instead of a vertical one. It's much more effective I find.
>>
>>318294142
Cliched and late, but my knigga. Moonlight Greatsword remains the greatest.

>>318298030
great scaling, higher bleed than average. can use it without having to sacrifice item or ring slots for bleed resistance coughlifehuntscythecough
>>
>>318298534
Oh boo hoo 20 HP per swing. Stop talking about a game when you don't know shit.
>>
>>318298534
>better moveset

it only has 2 attacks
>>
>>318298614
Bleed is useless. Chaos is actually weaker than a crystal Uchi at 40 DEX.
>>
Battle Axe and Claymore. I like to keep it simple.
