painting guardian sword is beast

i always overlooked this sword but i recently thought id give it a go and oh my god!! yeah the range is pretty naff but the moveset is really good and unless your a parry pro your gonna have a hard time parrying due to the random combinations of moves you can do im in love

It's really strong, too. People often make the mistake of underestimating it, and they die very quickly! Also I love the bleed. When people turtle, it gets them to come out of their shell.

i pair it with DMB and it is jsut AHHHHHHHHHHHHH yes ya no?

I use it with GMW, but most of the time I don't even apply it and it still tears people apart. At 40 Dex its AR is over 400. With DMB, you can get that to over 700--not bad at all for a tiny sword!

and people never realise how deadly it is so they go on the offense.....and ohhh they pay for there arrogance!

agreed, and when 2h it's faster too. i dont like dex weapon but the pgs is the only one i like, i like it so much that i gave dex another chance and that's all i use, dual pgs.

yehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I would dual wield them just for the look... but I'm toying with the idea of wielding a notched whip in my offhand now. The whip also deals bleed, parries just like bare fists, and can't be parried--it's absolutely perfect for those awkward fights where both you and your opponent just get into parry-spamming. Both roll-parry at the same time? Try it again and you'll get a notched whip in the face! Let's see if they keep parry spamming after a few of those.

PGS & Notched Whip, I have a feeling, is going to become my favorite setup!

Edit: here's my character, at the moment: http://tinyurl.com/6olaxre

hey I might try that one! looks very fun

thats pretty awesome, im totally in love with this sword, i used it once in my first play through but its skills were just lost on me, now ive gotten completely in tune with it, if someone attack rolls i can side step and launch an r2 attack for nealry 1000 damage with dmb, and then follow up with sum r1 before they can even react

Hmm... Maybe I'll bring it to 120 like this: http://tinyurl.com/88ajqs3

(Only problem is weight. I'd have to cast CMW, then un-equip the TCC to be under 25%.)

i have the same build but with dmb/slb.

im all about faith these days

I went with Int first because I wanted to use GMW at 15, and chameleon at the same time. I played around with the character builder, though, and I think they're about the same. At SL120, with all the other stats the same, you can have 32 Int or 30 Fth. And at those levels, CMW and maxed DMB give almost the same amount of buff.

@32 Int: TCC has 254 Mag Adj x 1.4 for CMW = 355.6 buff
@30 Fth: Canvas Tali has 172 x 2.1* for DMB = 361.2 buff

*Max DMB is 2.1, right?

Of course, if you went with Fth, you get access to WoG too...

im not entirely sure i havnt been able to damage test i just prefer DMB

crystal magic weapon is the coolest looking one though. i even made a band new cmw build for my DGM because of it.

it does look pretty damn cool but again im in love with DMB dont know why its just amazing

sparkly-twinkly sword to the face?

anyone know if the pgs has a reg or fat parry?

it does the curved sword one like thw quick flick

i know that, i wanna know if it has a fast or reg parry as in parry window.

oh god knows

im pretty sure at 50 faith vs 50 int DMB is strongest buff with Darkmoon tailsmen, not sure bout 30

i too agree the pgs is very underused and often underestimated,but you cant ignore its range. You really have to be careful not to go to far into the combos or your opponent will just back away and smash your face with a greatsword.

yeah risk and reward though any monkey can swing a greatsword willy nilly lols god knows i do it enough,
