the next moonlight sword

so it's well known that the moonlight sword is the trademark of fromsoft and is going to be in dark souls 2........so what do you think it will be like?

in demon souls it went through shields

in dark souls it fired beams of energy

im hoping for a ultra greatsword moonlight sword haha

maybe they should change its colour... Red?

can't ;x it goes back to another game they made with it originally (that has a dragon named seathe that forge it lol) and its always blue with a gold hilt xD

awww... maybe it got corrupted or some jazz

Is should transform into a laser gun that fires at the speed of light and offers no reaction time for enemies.

To be honest I was never really a fan of the 1H strong attack would not mind seeing that replaced by another swing type

I guess, but the 1H strong attack is pretty useless as it stands, you pretty much have to be not moving to get hit by it. even unlocked it is still pretty difficult to lead people properly. perhaps lowing the swing speed to be in line with other greatswords would fix the issue

Sorry what I meant was replace the 1h strong with another swing and move the swing speed to be in line with other greatswords to counter-act the potential opness of the moonlight greatsword.

I can see that, but then wouldn't that be true of any greatsword that had a decent moveset? I mean take a quality build claymore at 40/40 and +15 the claymore does 524. It has very effective stunlocking combos like the running 2HR1 into 2HR2 followed by a standard 2HR1, but I wouldn't really call it overpowered or that it overshadows other strats.

Also I honestly feel that the pure magic damage doesn't really matter that much, considering that a Moonlight Greatsword +5 at 40 int does 472 which is 40-55 less AR than any other greatsword that does only one type of damage (also excluding the cursed Greatsword of Artorias and the crystal greatsword as well as the flamberge, but that does have a bleed effect.)

I feel that, for the most part, this comes out to roughly the same amount of damage dealt once defences are accounted for (this is also assuming the enemy is not using the crown of dusk.) This becomes less true when the enemy is using heavy armour as heavy armour generally has weaker elemental and magic resistances, but at that point stunlocking isn't as much of an issue

Hmm...I'dlike to see a short sword version, maybe like the "Brotherhood" from Final Fantasy X?

PS-Tidus suks

moonlight fist

I'd like the Moonlight Sword to change into:
Straightsword if it is balder
Mace if it is Thorolund
Straightsword if it is Astora
Axe if it is Swamp
Scythe if it is Delta

Or overall a Ultra Great Sword

yea itll always be some version of this I'm just curious what the next one will be like :3 I sorta love it and always will, it broke my heart when it got nerfed after dlc
