(I added the title of the game in case this doesn't end up in the Bloodborne forum)
So while messing around recently I was wondering which other weapon I want to +10 in the game. I've been using skill based weapons all the time but I've played for so long now that I can start using strength ones as well.
Always liked the axe, but Ludwigs seems to have better scaling and damage rating. Ok so let's take them out for a spin.
My Ludwig is a +8 while the axe is a +7. Under my stats screen there is about a 100 damage difference between the two. Yet when I tested them out in theory both weapons dealt pretty much the same amount of damage, in same cases the "weaker" axe actually appearing stronger than the Ludwig Holy Blade. The only time Ludwig actually did more damage was in two handed single swing mode - literally in every other instance it was basically the same.
So what does that stat actually mean? Does it only refer to two handing? Because both weapons did about the same damage in charged attacks with the axe actually doing more.
It's even weirder since the axe has poor scaling and my STR isn't even that high while Ludwigs scales much higher with all my other stats.
What am I not getting?
Here is a video I put together in Sony's video editor thing, nothing fancy, but kinda shows what I mean.
