I've been using this sword a lot in the FSC, and I love it! I'm having some major problems with the charged attack though. For one thing, I really like the idea of it, and it looks really cool as well, but utility wise it's very hard to use without incurring damage or missing. So my idea is to have any enemies caught by the charge attack to be stun locked, meaning that if they get caught, then they wouldn't be able to move or attack. The problem with this nice weapon's charged attack is that even though you land it, your opponent can retaliate. Also, I have to pray that they get poisoned so the damage I would receive is minimal. Buff this wonderful sword please.

I find I am able to use the charge to kill enemies without being hit....but only on certain enemies. The stun lock is a good idea...so I support you. :D +1

I <3 DVS in naughty ways
I over all love mine and think it is fine how it is, I use the charge attack to combo enemies as I can often stun lock one if I use it at the right time but I do admit it needs a slight buff.
I suggest we change the charge attack to function as the normal attack combo, but you can't end it. Here is the change, every hit EVERY HIT including ghost blades cause stagger. Simple change that I think would make it much more fun and better to use.

For my general opinions on the need for the buff of these weapons lol. I discuss what buffs/changes could be made to the DVS and the WHB to strengthen the both of them and make them generally more useful to a player.
