Dual them with flyn, blades clutch lightning and clutch magic (+200 damage each)

The DS2 version has the magic visual and audio on attack.
The DS3 version has the lightning visual and audio on attack.

Resins and a dex build love this thing.
But so do dark and fire infusions since they scale off of int and faith and will buff the innate lightning and magic damage.
You could honestly just do a mix of int faith and dex.

I'll never forget when I one-shotted an invader with a single 2hr2 at iron keep.

Awesome damage, Good move set, low stamina consumption, and IT HAS GREAT DESIGN

How does it scale when Enchanted? Does its magic scale too, or is it just physical damage binded to int as well?

They butchered this boy badly in ds3. The stamina consumption is low, the counterdamage makes it almost a freaking Katana, the moveset is beautiful, super varied which makes yo unpredictable and that unique 2hr2 is beast, if that thrust connects with leo ring on a counter hit, you might aswell oneshot your opponent. And let's not forget about the exquisite fashion souls.

Its one of only two weapons in the game that can get all 4 elemental damage bonuses. Pretty cool on its own.

carried me through ng+ uninfused at base requirements. Very capable weapon, rarely needs repair powder. Capitalize on the counterattack damage with Stone ring and/or high poise armor!
- Anonymous
This weapon is a great candidate for infusion for a sorcerer or cleric, keeps an A scaling in dex while gaining a C scaling in either fth or int on top of the base magic/lighting damage. Very high counter damage for a greatsword.

Best greatsword for dex build. Counter damage is insane. 2H R2 can one shot in pvp if countered an attack.

I don't know why, but I Love this sword. I played DS3 first but when I got this beauty in DS2 I immediately used it because I liked it in DS3 as well. Let's say this thing destroyed Elana on my blind playthrough. Sure I died a couple of times to her but this weapon did insane damage against her. Definitely helpful if you have trouble with her.

Magic and lightning bonuses worthless and pointless. Ice rapier is much better Dex weapon with higher damage output, less weight and superior move set. Same split damage made Defender sword obsolete as well.

I need to know if I use a bonfire ascetic in the bonfire, Can I find again the set and sword?
- Anonymous
This may actually be the best greatsword for a dex build in the game. Playing a Dex/Intelligence character and this thing keeps outperforming the Drangelic Sword, Mirrah Greatsword and Loyce Greatsword (which is a bit annoying because I really like the Loyce and it took a lot of effort to get.) The Drakeblood also usually outperforms my Watcher Greatsword, somehow, despite the latter having higher attack rating on paper. And on top of it all it uses up less stamina than the others.

A bit too small to be called a greatsword imo. Should maybe use a straightsword moveset.

Let us mourn the loss of this great greatsword as it went hollow in DS3.
