It doesn't deal quite as much damage as the strong attacks of other Ultra weapons, but deals immense poise damage, and is much faster to swing (the other weapons require a \"charge up\"). Otherwise its only available once you get to iron keep which is decently far in, but other people have already explained that one. I wonder if the Zwei was an early game weapon like it was in DS1, people would use it more often. I put one in front of it, and it keeps gettin rated every time I play. No matter how hard I try I simply cannot get into any of the others, they just don’t do it for me the way this game does. DS 3 I really liked and played it mostly for it's straight forward co-op and pvp. While Konar is getting a lot of mileage out of the Heide Knight Sword +10, he just doesn't feel right unless he's using his Zwei. All rights reserved.
