The Dance of Bleed

Well I just got the Gold Tracer from a very very nice host (I invaded). I was a little disappointed in the gold tracer because of the damage. It just didn't meet expectations. Anyways.....

The point is that I was looking for viable main-hand weapons while this is my off-hand an I think I found the perfect one. THE PAINTING GAURDIAN SWORD. When you use the dancing r2 an the gold tracers offhand attacks it becomes a swirl of bleed and insane damage. I just nukeed three people in a row with these two weapons and even managed to win a 2v1. I am in love with these two weapons paired together. I don't think peoria expect it especially when I swap out of my Sheild to the gold tracer.

Just thought I should share.

Dual Gold tracers is even better

You're asking for a lot of beating by wielding Gold Tracer in left hand and also a lot of parrying.

It doesn't do terrible damage, but it's 2H R1 spam is deadly. It builds up bleed like no other and dead agles quite well. It's easy to parry though and you can't kick. Anyway, while it's damage is lower that that of Painting Guardian Sword, it has much more reach.

all i know is that i really don't like fighting anyone who has the gold tracer. try as i might, i always get bled out in three or four hits and die unceremoniously.

Pairing the gold tracer with anything that causes bleed is scary. It racks up bleed very fast. I'm now thinking of trying this with the Katanas or maybe even priscillas dagger. It's quite fun to bleed out unsuspecting fighters with just a few swings.

I love the gold tracer.
