    As Rant said, the Gold Tracer is equal to the Falchion when using them in right hand. Now, when you use it in the off hand, it becomes a very good weapon. Hard to use and to time, but it's fast. It's quick 3-hit attacks are awesome, and because they are just 1 attack (made out of 3 hits), you can move your character by unlocking after starting to attack, repositioning it to hit your target even if it strafes and making it great for going for stunlocks against low posed players.

    And is great for dead-angle because of it's spinning attacks which cover a lot of ground around your character, that combined with unlocking and repositioning attacks in real-time, makes it one of the best weapons to counter BS fishers.

    there was a video where someone used the gt in the off hand inorder to facilitate chain bs's... when the opponent got up he was hit with the gt offhand combo then backstabbbed the instant the gt combo ended...

    That sounds like either a exploit, or heavy lag. I'm sure it's not possible by common means.

    very possible, since youre stunlocked and really close to them you can bs them after the combo. you can bs someone after hitting them with an ultra weapon after stunlocking them once so you can pretty much do it with anything.

    What I mean it's that it's not impossible to avoid it, unless it's a exploit or heavy lag.

    It's like those guys with Hornet's and Rapier that spam Force because of the short stagger it causes gives them enough time to BS you. It's very effective, but it's not impossible to avoid.

    I kind of like seeing GT/Falchion users since I know parry is coming as soon as I take first hit.

    I usually parry GT users since they wail away hoping for the bleed. It's almost like those Dark Wraiths in New Londo with their multi-combo attack. You may eat the first 2, but you get to parry the 3rd...

    I'm pretty sure it's faster too. And bleed, added to a weapon already as fast as a falchion, would make a hell of a difference anyway.
