    I've heard that there are some weapons that make good quality build weapons, better than pure strength or dexterity. Anybody know some, cuz mugenmonkey seems to think that there is little better than a pure strength or dexterity melee weapon.

    Really? Mugenmonkey says that the uchi is superior to all 1h weapons, is the calculator off? I really want to do a 1h quality build, but I guess it's looking like it's going to be 2h. Meh, had to happen sometime.

    Look at the scaling in-game. C/C for DEX and STR, therefore logically making them better for quality builds.

    How is the zweihander not a true quality weapon? just because its slow and heavy doesn't mean its not a quality weapon. Quality is a term thats carried over from des. Its an upgrade path, that alters the scaling to be more balanced than "pure" str or dex. At C-C, the zweihander is a quality weapon in that it benefits just as much from dex as str.

    It isn't, in my definition. Even at +15, the scaling is C/D, not C/C.

    Zweihander +15 325/0/0/0 C/D/-/- Taken from the Wiki.

    Its still quality.
    Its freaking worthless as a "pure" weapon. The msgs/mura will deal just as much damage unless you have both.

    Dibsville, is your signature, like, an infinitely inflating repository for anime .gif's or something? I swear every time I look at it, a new .gif appears.

    The mura is a dex weapon, but the 28 str requirement means its functionally a quality weapon. Its really good too, if you can get the hang of its swing speed.

    because e-a is quality? I think not. As is said, the 28 str requirement makes it function like one, but all its scaling is in dex.

    The sunlight straight sword is slightly better for the same moveset. Though an estoc is good for a dex/str.

    Both Sunlight Straightsword and Estoc are one of the slowest swinging weapons of their weapon class.

    The whole Murakumo is/isn't a quality weapon is this dumb argument that I keep seeing pop up and I don't understand why people care.

    I wasn't arguing, merely correcting.

    There is the chance that refering to the mura as quality would mislead someone into building for it wrong. There is a benifit to a 40/40 build using a zweih as a main. There really isn't for the mura. better 28/40 and pumping something else.
