      It'd be my favorite if it wasn't so outclassed by Ludwig's Holy Blade. Using physical blood gems on it is still better than all damage blood gems because the physical ones go to 27.3%, meaning that you're way better off using a physical damage weapon. And that QS bullet use is pretty dumb considering how weak the beams are. The Elden Ring one is much better.

      Elden Ring has to be the best one yet. Though the variety of infusions for the DS2 one and the extreme use of magic damage in some cases of the DS3 and DeS ones made those sick asf too. If not for that ridiculous QS bullet use and the fact that sheer physical blood gems are still better than total damage blood gems on it in Bloodborne meaning you suffer incredibly diminished returns compared to something like the Ludwig Bitchblade, the Bloodborne one would probably be my fav.

      Like why are you mad at bad hitboxes which exist in every Souls game when the game feels like shit to play regardless? The only reason the hitboxes are noticed is the lower s compared to other games and sometimes higher active attack frames on enemy attacks but you can just level adp and the hitbox is nonexistent because you're in . But how do you fix the controls? You can't.
