The fact this long thin and pointy sword doesn't have any built in stab attacks, bothers me for some reason. Oh well guess I'll put shield piercer on it!
As soon as I first got this weapon I fell in love with it and used it throughout my first playthrough. I 100% feel your pain as I too wish that it had some thrust attacks.
@@coracusa2771 really? Because a big telegraphed thrust is so hard to deal with. Knock it off with the "skill" bs, it should have a thrust and you know it lol
The moveset is beautifully animated (actually based on how real greatswords are wielded) but watching your character do a little jig between every R1 has got to get old
It's interesting that in Ds3(Or any other fromsoft game), it had the most greatSwords and UltraGreatSwords which have R2 thrust attacks while in elden ring most of them contain the the R2 slam which has it pros and cons yet it sad to see that there's little greatswords and UGS in elden ring which actually have a thrust or special r2 but we can only hope if the DLC Changes that or does something so we just wait what the DLC will hold.
The generic greatsword swipe r2 has virtually no pros. You could argue it denies a wide area forwards and on the sides but the perfect tracking on the poke r2 in Ds3 achieved just that. No, there is really nothing interesting about that r2 unfortunately.
@@godefroiddebouillon7769 i mean in pve it works since the enemies don't usually dodge but in Pvp it doesn't have a pro since people can dodge it or the range of it will not hit the player..Everything has it pros and cons while some cannot be found easily. But anyways i do agree with your "point" since the thrusting is better than a swipe in many ways.
G9 and others are really good but all salt (also I don't think weapon and ring swapping should be a thing). Lost is no salt which is enjoyable but he's not that good at the game lol. Wish we had someone who is good and no salt.
It's honestly one of my favourites too for that. Beautiful blade, beautiful moveset, and awesome reach. It very much deserves the claymore heavies though, considering the length and shape of the blade.
My strength build character invaded at least three Chinese hosts last night. 'Twas dreadful. Worse than the one "AFK" farmer I also killed twice. 9:50 What a glorious victory, Lost. I never use Piercing Fang, but I will now.
Man how do i wish the lordworn greatsword instead had this moveset... Would hve made sense too. You got 3 base greatswords that way: the claymore with the poke the bastard sword being the shitties most classic gs you use if you have no stats, and the lordsworn to have the fancy R1s. As for the knight's greatsword, if the mid lines were fullers instead, at least it would sort of make sense...
yeah its really weird like you can either go with the claymore and get a poke heavy and a crouchpoke or u can go with the knights greatswords and keep the swing heavy that cant rollcatch really to a weird light chain moveset
I've been getting better at PVP lately from watching your videos and practicing, but it often feels like an uphill battle. I'm definitely improving, but not at a rate I would like. Any actual useful tips on how to practice and get better at PVP in a meaningful way? Thanks.
If you are on PlayStation I can help you out a lot I’m sure. I’m an old souls vet who loves to help people get into and help understand PvP in these games.
Have you tried the misbegotten cleaver yet? Was trying it out yesterday and th R2 seems to have decent Rollcatch potential especially if used with something fast offhand like a rapier... The cool thing about that cleaver R2s is that it's not just "short or long" depending on the charge, it actually has midpoints tooso you can get the highest degree of accuracy.
I know Elden Ring takes place in an entirely different universe but putting anything else than the Artorias flip on the knight sword feels wrong to me.
No matter what you think about this weapon, you gotta admit that it's a beautiful sword

@@2oshow we all know that everyone would start spamming it, I love the move set cause it actually takes skill to use.
@@coracusa2771 really? Because a big telegraphed thrust is so hard to deal with. Knock it off with the "skill" bs, it should have a thrust and you know it lol
@@stockingsstuffer6302 no it shouldn’t, because more than likely it would be like the colossal swords and have a near instant poke
Out of all the weapons that pokes with a flat end, this is the thing that catch your eye

3 months late but no not really
This sword only needed the Claymore two handed R2 to be absolute perfect, I love it's moveset.
0:53 You might be thinking of Grognak from the Fallout series comic book.
Had to put my Elden Ring journey on hold this week, broke my hand at work, but at least I can still watch you kick peoples asses.
why is it always fingers?
I hope you recover bro.🐱
Damn that sucks, I pray for you a speedy recovery
I pray for your speedy recovery man
There are dudes that beat from games one handed, get that setup and git gud
Makes me miss the Lothric Greatsword and it's beautiful stab attacks
stunlocking the everloving crap out of enemies in ds3 was so nice.
That and the Cathedral Knight GS were so beautiful.
@@JamesMJaime cathedral knight gs dealing blunt was so nice

I'd assume it's because a few have crouch pokes.
@@c0n33r True since the other from games don't have a crouch button or system.

The knight sword not having a stab r2 is ludicrous. Should be a patched in thing honestly. Like is the claymore the only greatsword with a stab r2?
I think the claymore is indeed the only GS with a stab r2. This weapon should most definitely have it as well.
The knights even have a stab attack with it… I’d like to see that attack.
@@Zanemob legit, if the knight can stab with the damned thing then so can I!
It's literally the pointiest gs. Silly that it lacks a stab.
And claymore stole all the thrusts
Nice video. You are a lot more easier too watch because most of other pvp content creators are just salt incarnate.
who did you watch? ik of a few other good pvp youtuber’s but lost is a goat and i love his vibe
Found rob user
G9 and others are really good but all salt (also I don't think weapon and ring swapping should be a thing). Lost is no salt which is enjoyable but he's not that good at the game lol. Wish we had someone who is good and no salt.
*HI LOST, HAPPY SHANKINGS AND VIOLENT KISSES TO YOU AND EVERYBODY WATCHING!*
one of my favorite weapons because of the light attack string and animation, which it shares with a couple weapons
Banished knight sword has it too! I wish the flamberge had it as well tbh
It's honestly one of my favourites too for that.
Beautiful blade, beautiful moveset, and awesome reach. It very much deserves the claymore heavies though, considering the length and shape of the blade.
i got this sword from de cukoo knight, she came with a spell ash of war that suited me well because of the stag
I like the third hit, tends to catch people used to the normal GS moveset when strafing or rolling to the side
3:08 thank you for leaving that sentence without context in the video
The jumping r1 combos into a normal r1 with that moveset
The R2 also combos into an R1.
one of my favorite weapons, i use it on my abyss watcher build and it slaps with fire affinity
"Death is death" so wise. 🤣😎👌🏽
Great looking sword, probably the main reason I want to use it.
My strength build character invaded at least three Chinese hosts last night. 'Twas dreadful. Worse than the one "AFK" farmer I also killed twice.
9:50 What a glorious victory, Lost. I never use Piercing Fang, but I will now.
Love the 2 handed r1s on this
"To get a good view of Gwynevere's Bits" Ok I leave now
Can't believe lost doesn't like the only interesting GS moveset
Stabbbing with greatsword
very satisfying
Grobnab is the inverse of Banborg. I also think we should ban the Borg before we are all assimilated. Resistance is futile.
Some sick parries!
Use Lion's Claw for all your Artorias cosplay needs
that "your Family" sound nearly killed me. I fell from my chair and nearly landed on a screw. Dont ask me why theres a screw behind my chair. 2:04
In the beginning you're probably thinking of grognak the barbarian from fallout.
Maybe you were thinking of Grongnak the barbarian from the Fallout series when facing grubnab? It’s the first thing that came to my mind lol
I think hoartfrost stomp Is One of the best aow for space control especially on greatswords and heavy reaperiers
Love the channel, pretty sure I 1v1’d u a few days ago at the raya lucaria gate.
I hate knight’s sword. That bar that comes out of the middle of the sword on both sides is inexcusable sword design.
Man how do i wish the lordworn greatsword instead had this moveset... Would hve made sense too.

hey lost, you're probz thinking of grognak the barbarian from fallout4, cheers mate have a good one
The fight with holy wario and unholy waluigi was extremely funny. x)
The last one LMAO
Ahh, Hollowslayer GS my beloved.
Except this doesn't have the R2 Thrust, only the Claymore does :(
yeah its really weird like you can either go with the claymore and get a poke heavy and a crouchpoke or u can go with the knights greatswords and keep the swing heavy that cant rollcatch really to a weird light chain moveset
The fact that the knight greatsword R1 moveset is the one getting called weird over the "bonk sword in the ground" moveset of most gs grinds my gears
The Knight's Greatsword R1s are motion captured and are more historically accurate than the Claymore R1s
YEEEEEEEEESSSS NEW VIDEO
Knight's Greatsword is basically Eldenring's Claymore
Lost you are thinking of Grognak from fallout! (In terms of grobnab) :)
pov: lost checks chat "Guess ill die"
been looking for a sword with that moveset forever
I think the mantis blade is something you should check out
I dunno, it looks cool but that R2 really isn't that great... At least uncharged it comes out fast, but that's about it.
Play it sometimes because of the cool Sound it made

"Don't give up, skeleton!"
I believe in you man, keep practicing.
Find friend and train on each other, also animations matter. Crouching for example changes the animations of a lot of weapons' attacks

@@Zanemob id love to but i unfortunately dont have a ps5
@@WeyounSix PS4?
Every sword should be able to switch from stab to slash. Would had a little more strategy to the game.
idk if grobnab is a barbarian but fallout has an in-universe comic book character called grognak the barbarian
Unholy Walugi and Holy Wario 😭
Lost you suck and i love it You are fun as hell! Very fun videos!

8:42 Omae wa mou shindeiru
3:53 Death by irony.
I’m pretty sure that you and me are the only people who parry in this game lol
3:53 hahahahahahahaha
This sword looks very similar to Helphens Steeple
yezzir
Greatswords were done so dirty in ER, I want to like them but they are just about the worst weapon class in the game.
Well that's quite the exaggeration.
Used to be a great moveset
piercing fang is great for greatswords
MYYYY NAMEEEE
this is just a great wa for pvp. use it on my uchi so my Kiba could use unsheathe
I’ve run into invisible players before, its no fun
Sombody knows what armor is he using? 👀 looks dope
At 6:59, that is what happens when you don't understand momentum.
Grognak is from fallout 4
Claymore is the only Greatsword worth using.
WHY DOESN'T IT GET THE THRUST R2
HOW
Grogank is from fallout 4
He use big axe
it's a shame how bad Stamp (Sweep) is in this game
there is literally no reason to use it over anything else
4:07 big sad
@7:42 he's was switching targets rollcatchin em lol ggs was a valid attempt my mans
Trying to roll catch with bad weapons is painful. My condolences for having to make this
You can just do jump R1s to roll catch after block canceling your attacks.
Idunno if you intentionally don't know some of the bame references or not, but either way you're a funny guy, love your videos
dual whield these suckers
Wats ur twitch
Looong sword
