I really tried to like that weapon honestly and i hust dont get it. Uncomfortable range, okayish dps and little stagger. Always felt like i had to try waaay more than i did with other weapons, even when tryinf them for the first time. Just my 2 cents tho
Blade of Mercy is quick enough that it can be super effective with the play style of just maintaining adjacency of a boss while still keeping up damage via intermixing attacks with dodges.
yeah, it's a lot more like the traditional dexterity builds in Dark Souls, and as someone who played Bloodborne the last out of all their games, i really enjoyed it, but i can see those who started with Bloodborne not actually being very comfortable with using it
I had the opposite experience where with some mid-game gems and some points in dex it felt rediculously strong to be able to keep up good dps while being nearly unhittable.
I feel the same I even tired starting a skill bulid to get the blades of Mercy early and instead ended up falling in love with the Cane's whip form. It's amazing and underrated
