i upgraded a +15 man-serpent greatsword, and its not that great really, ill use it as my enchanting weapon, but the bk great axe is a lot better as a str weapon (with the str i have ofc)
i also feel like it has a smaller range than the claymore, even if both have a similar move set (i think the only difference is the strong attack 1h and 2h (which are both better on the claymore imo)
so id say, if you're going for scaling+enchanting go for man-serpent greatsword or black knight great axe (or any black knight weapons really)
if its for lightning/fire upgrade, go for claymore
Yeah, claymore was my first choice for lightning, since it has a longer range and is a bit faster. Haven't had too much of a test-run with the serpent gs, since it is completely un-upgraded, but I'll probably just stick to the claymore instead of farming.
