Let’s talk about The Sword Lance (invasions) | Elden Ring Shadow of The Erdtree

[@vitormalgarise]

R2>R1 true combos

[@TheDepressedHollow]

Oh cool I didn’t know that, hts used to have that true combo before but then they removed it

[@vitormalgarise]

@@TheDepressedHollow yeah I think the r2 is form lance like the running r2

[@WeeabooPocky]

also, fro my knowedge, the heavy attack has hyper armor.

[@StrugglerVA]

@@WeeabooPocky it has the same hyper armor values as the greatsword weapon class when using attacks with hyper armor

I remember when this guy was counting the days we didn't have Elden Ring, good to see him finally no longer hollowed and enjoying the DLC lol

I’d also like to point out the sword lance has bleed, poison and frost build up equivalent to colossal swords

Used this thing against the final boss. Did 2.5K per piercing fang, 3.2K with all buffs stacked. A scaling in strenght, a thrusting sword. I'd say it's very solid.

He literally mentions Invasions/PvP. Who cares about PvE ? Any weapon is viable in PvE lmao

[@usernameig975]

@@edwardsilver4012 I think you have it mixed up, buddy. PVP is a fucking joke in this game. If you really crave knight on knight violence that much, go play mordhau. Instead of the undercooked and irrelevant game mechanic that is fromsoft PVP 😂

[@Sablemae76]

When i saw this weapon i was hoping for a great sword/great spear type moveset. Its ok but i expected something a little heavier and not a thrusting sword with a shit r2.

[@TheDepressedHollow]

@@Sablemae76 r2 r1 is true combo

[@Sablemae76]

@@TheDepressedHollow that's nice but my expectations were a heavier weapon with a different moveset. I can't see gais using those fancy thrusts. I wanted something more unique

[@captainwafflezs4799]

This thing has colossal weapon bleed buildup when bleed infused :/

[@xueda9114]

Same goes for poison and cold

[@nelferthelegend6995]

Fun thing ? Right?

[@BimBimma-q1x]

Missed the opportunity to give it at least 1 greatsword attack.

[@edwardsilver4012]

I personally enjoy using this weapon, but its far from being good. Heavy Thrusting Swords are in a pretty bad spot right now . Easily predictable and easily strafed and therefore easily punished. From extensive testing against top tier tournament players I can say that the fake jump attacks are the best way to use this weapon. No sane person would ever run into an R2 as its slow and telegraphed. The follow up R1's are super quick , but just like in the first example it only works against people are that are bad at the game. Another thing is that I really cant imagine this being able to deal with a whole squad of gankers. All in all its a good weapon. Just not as great as other things that are being used currently. But thats my personal opinion after extensive use . You are free to disagree

it looks good tho

Is it really

[@hrupalwens5001]

@@TheDepressedHollow the jumping R2 into pseudo combo R2 and true combo R2 into R1 is all it really has. Has the great spear running R2 (doggy doo doo), and still the same bad crouching attack. It has its place in duels imo, but in invasions I can’t bring myself to use it. No horizontal attacks despite being A FRICKING SWORD SPEAR, and damage take too long to get out.
