Tips for Greatswords

The Berseker's Blade is a fantastic mid-to-late game option, offering a huge ATK boost and a chance to Dazzle or Oomph. Keep an eye out for it!
For fighting Metal Slimes, the Liquid Metal Gooreatsword, Metal Gooreatsword, and Metal King Gooreatsword are your best friends, adding bonus damage specifically to them.
If you're up against lots of demons, the Banishing Blade and Demonsbane give you a nice damage edge.
Don't underestimate the special effects! A chance to Dazzle or Paralyze can save you a lot of trouble in a tough fight.
The Brilliant Blade and Nightcleaver deal light damage, which can be useful against certain enemies.
Remember that some of the best Greatswords, like the Brilliant Blade and the various Metal Slime swords, can't be bought and might be found as treasure or rewards.
