Have the devs played Two-handed swords against the final flying bosses (I can’t even get past their minions with 2-hander)? I think not. It’s a horrible fight. I don’t want to cheese it with some kick runes but apparently that’s what we need to do. The final fight, actually the minions even are a t…

I beat the whole game with a two-handed sword including the eco knight at max pestilence level and without sublime items. Build, right items and runes make the difference. I have no idea why many have difficulty with the double flying boss, personally he is the only one I beat on the first try with …

My friend also had the experience that the last fight was the hardest using 2h. Watched him really struggle on a second start trying daggers and realized he was carried hard by the 2h damage able to trade damage and heal to kill most bosses. There is skill to using 2h, which I didn’t posses so went…

No, I understand, I’ve already defeated it with two other characters using faster weapons. I just don’t think I should have to switch to another class of weapon to defeat that encounter. To me there is something fundamentally wrong with either the encounter or the weapon or combat itself. I don’t …

its maybe to do with move sets? personally i had been using the claymore but struggled with that on the bird swarm. i ended up switching to a scythe to use its opening wide sweep attack to hit multiple birbs at once and that was much better. i feel like having a weapon switch, 1 with trusty single …

the 2h have a higher dps than the 1h at the expense of the attack speed. if you bring the base attack speed equal to that of the 1h then you would make the 1h useless. this game is already totally unbalanced, asking for it because you don’t want to use objects/runes makes no sense..however if you o…

Hello everyone, My main character uses 2H weapons, and I can understand the issue. In reality, there are some very competent 2H weapons, but at the same time, many are clearly ineffective when used in the game’s most challenging fights (and those are the ones that really matter). If you try out dif…

100% agree and is basically what I’m getting at. The reason I have three different two handers is because I was looking for precisely that. I was even trying the rune attack from corpse smear that is an arcing attack but I was getting interrupted constantly. That was with heavy armor and poise potio…

I’m not asking to bring base attack speed to 1h. I’m asking for the VERY limited 2-handed rune attack moves to not be interrupted when a mob sneezes on me or at least add more 2-handed rune attacks. There are VERY few in case you haven’t checked. I shouldn’t have to use non 2-handed rune attacks to…

I’m not talking about the double flying boss. What runes are you using in the two-handed sword for the swarm? What level were you when attempting? Because most vids I’ve seen are people cheesing it with kick flip and other martial arts. That’s not two-handed sword. First boss was first try, at lev…

Are you using enough poise gear?
