You're not allowed to make these threads hiss hiss!
I find that each of them has values to me in different ways, I can't choose one based on all the choices.
I really like the Estoc because of its long range and cool R2. Its R2 is pretty slow though, so its not as effective, but the AR is nice, and the weight isn't so much (although not heavy, it is the heaviest).
I really like Ricard's because of its moveset, its like a chainsaw, but its low durability is annoying and it's AR isn't great, but it does have more range than the normal Rapier.
I like the Rapier, but only because its a jack of all trades in a way. Good enough range, fine AR, extra critical, usable behind a shield, low weight, although its high critical is a very strong direction, I usually prefer my weapons to be much stronger in some ways and much weaker in others, rather than well rounded.
Velka's is one of the better non-enchantable weapons, it has great range and fair AR, and a great moveset. Its completely solid for not enchant INT builds.
The Mail Opener is so freaking weak, that I have trouble liking it for anything other than its very very low weight, pretty low requirements, and looks, its definitely my least favorite.
Overall, I may say Ricard's at first, but that low durability, ugh! I hate how often it seems to be needing more souls to fix it, now its just be disliking the weapon for unfair reasons, but that's it. I think of the Estoc, but I can't get past it's moveset being not great. Velka's is unique and awesome but I think I may say Rapier, but I find all 4 real rapiers good weapons that are awesome.
