Either the Uchigatana, Painting guardian sword and if you have the DLC gold tracer. IMO forgot to add the silver knights sword

gold tracer is weapon?

there's no best weapon, everone has different opinions on which one is best, youre better off trying all of them and pick the one you like(and are good with) best. i personally think the reg scythe is the best since its really powerful, good moveset and awesome reach.

the Chaos blade.

Preference comes into it, but the sks and washing pole absolutely dominate most of the matches I use them/see them used in.

The Gold Tracer is a DLC weapon. If you don't have the DLC you can probably get someone to trade you one. It's worth checking out if you like the curved swords. The Falchion is also a really good choice, as is the Murakumo, but the Murakumo requires more strength than you currently have to wield. The Balder Side Sword and Ricard's Rapier are both solid choices as well. If you include something to increase your damage, like Power Within, the Red Tearstone Ring, or the Leo Ring, or any combination of them, along with Ricard's Rapier, you can have an extremely powerful weapon on your hands.

The easiest Dex weapon to win with is probably the Silver Knight Spear, but the Great Scythe and Chaos Blade are fantastic for if you want to play more fair.

The SKSp is unfair now?

Not unfair just impossible to beat of the spear user uses my steps of invincibility.

1. Only use R1 attack.
2. Never R1 more then once.
3. Only R1 at max range.
4. Flip away after every R1


There is seriously no counter to this play style despite what people on the forum will tell you. Thankfully majority of spear users don't play this way

I prefer the Iaito to the uchi, even if it takes some ...unpleasant ways to get it. The R2 can dead angle and shocks people if you use it unlocked.

Again its down to preference.

I don't really see that as unfair. There are ways to defend against everything. I generally always carry an elemental spear and a great shield on me unequipped. If I was fighting somebody that was doing that, I may well just start doing it back.

Look out for Shotels!

That's the point of it, the only way to counter it is to become it. So that's saying a Spears counter is a spear. That isn't a real counter

I didn't say it was a counter. I said it was a defense. Attrition can be a very viable tactic if you exercise a degree of patience, and just wait for your opponent to do something dumb. I actually have a spear build that's designed entirely around that idea. I've had moderate success with it too

I wonder how the meta would have been if shield deflect worked the same way for pvp as it does in pve. (iron round shield + spear?)

Would make big shields more pvp viable, i wish pvp had deflection.
