I’m usually more of a dex guy in Souls games, so my first few playthroughs have been with the Blades of Mercy, the Saif, and a BL4 with the Sawcleaver. I haven’t played in a minute, but my most recent was a pure BONK build with the Kirkhammer, possibly either going for a Boomhammer or Amy’s Arm once I get to the DLC. The feel of these weapons really is a lot different from the swift and nimble dex weapons I’m used to, but it’s good to mix it up a little from time to time.
What are yours?
BoM can be obtained by progressing Eileen’s questline regularly. Unless you’re dead set on using them right off the bat, you can get them sometime after Vicar Amelia.
Alternatively, you could go chalice-crawling and get the Burial Blade and BoM that way.
Simon’s Bowblade does look incredibly stylish, that’s true.
Really? I can get them in chalice dungeons before I get them in main game? That is good to know, thanks!
