man I really hope the dragonscale katana gets a rework. it's such a cool idea having ice lighting yet having no frost buildup or lighting damage on its own

0:07 Serpent stone 1:40 Uchigatana 3:02 Nagakiba 4:07 Dragonscale blade 5:24 Meteoric Ore Blade 6:46 Hand Of Malenia 8:50 Moonveil 10:24 Rivers Of Blood Your Welcome

dont kill the hunter for his nagakiba, do his whole quest, its not long and u get an additional weapon.

Uchigatana in my experience works best if paired with another katana like nagakiba, rivers of blood, and maybe even moon veil, dual katanas are also just very fun

Although not a katana, you should add Wakizashi if someone wants to powerstance it with a katana. It uses katana moveset and you get style points for using a the longest katana and the shortest.

Well made video you earned a sub with this one good job

Uchi is incredibly underrated here IMO. Unsheathe is a significantly stronger ash of war than either Ice lightning sword or gravitas. Nagakiba is also very good just by virtue of its great range

imo blood Uchigatana (while one of the more basic weapons ) is one of the best and most moldable weapons in the game. And you still have your left hand for parrys, a 2nd blade, incantations,etc to mix people up

thank god someone who knows how to speed up their footage

love the music

nagakiba is unstoppable with bloody slash

Bruh you really killed the coolest guy in the game for that sword even though you could’ve just done the fastest method. Do his side quest for him.

I completed the game 3 times and only used moonveil and it was enough. Thanks to this, I was able to continue as a wizard, but I don't like the bloody one.

Whenever I watch these videos I found out there are even more places Ive yet to explore🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thank you! finally a video without annoying commentary.

You could also show heavy attack with Moonveil

Moon veil heavy attack interrupts enemy animations. If the enemy has enough health it’ll eventually stagger them. With 50 int it hits at around 1k dmg for every heavy strike. Dual wield this with a uchigatana with bloody slash and it’ll bring the blood build up to 88 while moon will has 50. Rivers of blood is ass compared to moonveil.

I think that RoB is definitely better than moonviel because of bleed but when you use LoR you easily get rid of 50% of RoB damage and you still get moonviel

What is the armour u using it looks sick?

occult uchigatana with high arcane tops other katanas except rivers of blood. on the other hand with high int the moonveil becomes the best (as damage) so you just have to keep in mind how you level up. uchigatana is still one of the most versatile and strong when you put an affinity on it

Nagakiba with bloodloss stacked with Raptor's Mist can take down the Fire Giant with no hit from the Giant. Also stamina boost too.

I used to be a rob user now I'm a pure strength build and my god life has been good

why uchigatana 7? Uchigatana have the bleeding effect + with sharpness and 25+ Its the only one katana with A scale from Dexterity. I have both utigatanas, on 10+ and 7+ and even though they deal a good damage

What armor are you wearing throughout the video?

Rapaz eu já usei a rios de sangue e garanto que a nagakiba ou a uchigatana com corte giratório com um nível considerável, buffada com algum cebo ou encantamento é melhor, quebra a postura de quase qualquer inimigo em menos de 4 usos, custa menos pf, quebra hyperarmor, é rápida, pega vários inimigos e pode ser adequada pra sua build pq da pra colocar aguçada, pesada etc, e se você usar ela de sangue você consegue aplicar sangramento consideralmente rapido, e você ainda pode usar no começo do game, os defeitos é que não vai tão longe quanto a rios e ela sangra mais devagar.

0:07 Armor set up? looks insane

Moonveil is best at keeping some distance were as the rivers of blood is more close kombat...both great weapons just work in different play styles

I personally believe the Katana is only rated based off the build you play. I run a nagakiba dual wield with the hand of Melania because range is amazing with bloodhounds quick step to get you that extra distance and it can really throw off your opponent if used offensively. I only really use hand of Melania for its dps and not for its ash of war. Now if you tried to pair any other katana with this build it would immediately become F tier in my book.

with moonveil,i defeat 80% of boss, it's the best for me

Nagakiba is capable of being better than RoB and Moonveil and Uchigatana is a great off hand weapon. I don't think you should look down on them just because they are infusable weapons. Both is A or higher for me.

La Uchigatana tiene el mejor escalado 😉

The dragon scale katana is cool and a unique ash of war but it was a pain to get and the wind up is to slow ahhh lake of rot plus dragonkin soldier

Meteoric ore katana is such a OP weapon if you upgrade it 6+

about the nagakiba, just kill yura, do not feel bad about it, although his questline will give you some good weapons but you can still find those bloody fingers without him

gonna get me that rivers of blood katana!

2 Uchikatana´s +25 is the best Weapon thru the whole game if you use a good Blood build 1 Uchikatana can have 117 Blood dmg with Bloody Stash

What is that armour set u are using with the feathers

I have a secret axe that’s Lowkey better than every other build I’ve ever seen with blood😂 killed fire giant in Probavly 8 hits.

Uchigatana & Negakiba is the best twin katanas

9:54 . What is that blue power you used? Can u pls tell me . And how to get it

How do you get that armor

whats the armor your wearing

Faz uma versão armadura por favor, para samurais

The uchikatana is still my go too weapon

The first weapon is a saber

What character you using

What is this armor set?

Whats the name of his armor ??

Today i bought this game. Can i find these katanas as warrior?

Does anyone know if you can farm the nagakiba sword guy for multiple sword?

where is the set armor in the video??

What helmet is dat

how is nagakiba 6? it should 2nd, hand of malenia seems flimsy to me, and the classic uchi should be fourth

10:30

Top 3: moonveil Top 2: nagakiba Top 1: Rivers of blood

*sees Moonveil and Rivers of Blood at the top 2* Ah, I see you’re a man of culture as well.

Cant find yura the hunter , ever since i killed bloody finger and the dragon hes no where to be found

What is this armour can someone tell me?

There is more than 8 katanas.

What armor do you have there

Rivers of Blood is cool, too bad gankers and spammers made this weapon a cancer weapon and you’re usually shunned for being a noob or piece of poo for using it haha

Serpentbone 1

Who is the amor?

weapon is different for magma wyrm like i got the magma wyrm scalesword

I am having a tough time killing the magma beast thing, any tips?

I really hope nobody takes your ranking seriously. watching you play is like watching a toddler try and build a gundam model. good guide on how to get them though.

Damn bro how can you get 1k damage the max I can get is like one hundred. Elden ring it’s my first souls game and this is my first playthrough

can samurai dual blade?

the Nagakiba guy isn’t there for me

How to get armour?

7:00 those guys were dancing but u ruined there fun 🤣😂

Nah man uchigatana should be higher

No, nagkiba is best top 1, river blood top2

Ok the right ranking being: 1 moonveil 2 nagakiba 3 rivers of blood 4 hand of malenia Rest doesn't matter

I did it an he did a roll move an fell off the map 💀

Hand of malenia doesn't deserve 3rd place at all, nagakiba would be a much better 3rd place, even second because you can actually change its ash of war.

It's not worth killing NPCs for their weapons! And all Katanas and can be S tier if the player knows how to use them in the right build, so this list is very irrelevant.

Last spot - serpentbone blade First spot - rivers of blood This says alot about this community ffs

Compared o other weapons rivers of blood isn’t that good because it only goes +10 cause it’s a boss wewpon

Rivers of Cringe katana

Rivers of blood est devenu tellement nul

0 info about scalings and other stuff. Meh

If rivers is your #1 ill never watch another vid of yours! Good luck! Edit: aaaaand ill never watch another vid of yours ✌🏼

Good tier list, just kinda sad to see the Nagakiba listed so low, even though it can do more bleed than Rivers
