    i like having both as an option. rapier does more critical dmg and estoc has better range(and a slightly better move set imo)

    The rapier critical has too much difference?estoc makes a bit more damage and is a bit longer...

    it actually is fairly noticeable. if you are using both the same type of element you will notice its almost a 150 or more dmg difference depending on the elemental weapon and the opponents armor. those dmg points add up.

    Estoc for regular attacks, and rapier for BS and parries. Just equip both in your right hand so you can swap between them as needed. Also, try using the rapiers with the Leo ring. It's really effective since virtually every attack with a rapier is a thrust attack.

    Frankly I far prefer velka's to estoc, however if your not an int build estoc will serve better.
