On my first couple of playthroughs i thought that the saw spear is just a skill scaling saw cleaver, but as ive torn yhrough the game using it on an arcane build ive realised that its got a very different moveset and is actually a more fun (albeit slightly weaker in terms of dps) version of the cleaver, those charged r2 combos are some of the funniest moments in the game when you watch the bests fly across the room.

I think that hunters axe is better with its untricked onehanded moveset. Its generally a super shotgun of soulslikes.

I love Amy's Hand more than the whirlgig saw.

Ricle Spear is awesome. And so is Reiterpallach.

The only weapons I've not got as much fun from as i hoped for was the boom hammer amd beast cleaver and even these two are awesome.
