They're still kinda bad.

Their spin2win weapon art eats so much FP, but barely does any damage.

and they STILL have d/d/d/d scaling-- why?

they need better scaling, then they'd be ok

Buff isn't even noticeable. Damage is still complete trash thanks to being split among three different types and having fucking D scaling all around.

Seriously what the fuck? It should be straight Cs or be a DDBB when fully upgraded. Dancer's Swords should be a staple weapon for pyromancy builds but they completely ruin it with those awful stats.

You can combo into spin2win from a L1 starter. The whole combo does about 700+ damage. It's still somewhat usable.

Longer Reach, higher base damage, less scaling, less critical, though the rapier only has 110 critical anyway.

The damage with 40 dex isn't that different between the two, but the longer reach allows for better counter-hits, and then you just spam R1 after scoring one counter hit.

>>
>>334945885
It's actually pretty good, I used it for a bit and had some success (especially with carthus rouge) but switched to a different weapon.

Reason why you don't see it because it's kinda an inbetween weapon, it's not as fast as the straight swords but not as slow as the greatswords. Same with the damage.

Oh and I guess the low drop rate on one of the most annoying enemies in the game is also a reason why.

fucking why? L1 does less damage than R1 even if both hits connect fully, it's slower than R1, it does less stun/stagger if both hits hit than one hit of R1, it has both longer startup and recovery than R1.

The sellsword twinblades is pretty much just a flachion where you can choose to gimp yourself by doing a crap attack instead of a normal falchion attack. They completely fucked it up

The scaling might still be "D" but dexterity and strength add to physical dark and fire damage now.
Points are best spent dex>str>int>fth
Faith only adds 1 damage per point while dex and str add 3-5
That being said, the spin's infinite stun lock is the only redeeming aspect of the weapons.

I got these up to +3 and am currently in between the abyss watchers area and cathedral of the deep. They're fun, but because they're starter weapons it makes me feel like if I invest anymore into them then i'm going to be left with not enough upgrade materials when I find another twin blades set.

Muh /profaned/ nyukkas. I love how it doesn't require or scale off any magic stats. The fire is just a straight damage buff, so you can just go quality and stack pure AR. Motherfuckers think they can step to me, bait them out with a Stomp then juggle them when they try to come in for a poke with their dinky estoc/ straight sword. Shit's so fucking strong and is even good against damage sponge enemies in PvE. Rolling 1HR1 is also a poke, and is much faster than 2HR2 poke, I use it sometimes to poke back other heavy weapon users after I dodge through their attack.

Be careful though, the endlag on the super fire flip is long as fuck. Any smart person will try to backstab you if you miss. I recommend baiting with a few Stomps, and if they dodge into you, just R2 and watch glorious DaS3 animation tracking do the rest, hitting them as soon as they come out of iframe. The danger is whiffing the attack too early, before they actually dodge, so it doesn't track them.

You're confused my dear anon. There's only two builds in the whole game. Hp and atk and Hp and magic. The specifics are just for what flavor you feel like playing as.

If you use Dex, pump dex, if you use Strength, pump strength, if you use magic, pump int, if you use miracles, pump faith. Don't forget to put points into Endurance if you are melee heavy or FP if you are magic heavy every now and again. That's it. If you want to respec, Rosaria covenant leader can respec you when you join their covenant, you only need to join once to get the respecs and you don't need to stay with them. Location for Rosaria is online.

Shit cause you won't get enough attacks in pvp to cause the effect procs and the procs from special weapon effects drain resources that could have gone to increasing your base damage.

Not to mention effects like bleeding and poison are next to pointless in pve. Try out a heavy luck build for funsies to see if you like it or not.

Yeah, you fucked up. You found a decent item then buffed it so much, that every other weapon at base doesn't compare. This is the frog in the well syndrome. "My thing is all I know so it must be the best!"

Straight swords do the most damage in the shortest amount of time currently, this is a fact. A 10+ Straight sword with a Refined, Heavy or Sharp gem with a magic buff are the strongest weapons in game. Don't be fooled into fire, dark, lighting etc. Being able to buff a weapon pushes it ahead of the elemental gems.

roll sideways instead of forward/back. If they R1 more than once then they just keep stabbing the same direction and you can fuck their ass

Usually I keep a rapier in my offhand, rather than a shield for style and parrying and a quick poke if I need it. Do we know if the increased damage to hollows counts on players? Because I just demolished a guy in Irithyll with it, way more damage than I'm used to on a player.

In what way? It's incredibly short and hard to use in PvP. You have to bait niggas into your hitbox and then hope they don't flip over your R2 poise check.

Meanwhile, most level 60ish PvP everyone have Uchi or Washing Pole or (even better) Estoc spamming.

>>334953795
No split damage for one, which is a plus in my book, especially on fire. It matches the firelink greatsword for phsyical damage at +3, and scales D and C for str and Dex, making it a dex favored greatsword, and an alternative to the curved greatswords if they're not your thing.
It also has it's own unique four attack moveset that is a little faster than your normal greatsword twohanded moveset, especially between r2 and r3. It will deal 50% more damage to hollows (though I'm unsure if that includes players, I've yet to see anyone test it, since apparently only four people use the thing)

It's also fly as fuck.

thanks to how poise works now, and the general strength and speed of the straight swords and rapiers, you can very easily r1 spam and stunlock many players because they're too stupid to know what to do against it.
