Ok.. let me explain this again..
You don't need any new buldgeon weapons..
War Maul, Awl Pike, and Heavy xbow all have more atk than Claymore.. I have no clue where you are comming from..
Awl Pike is slow, but rapier is fast... That makes up a lot..
KLS may be fast, but unless you are going to stay at your remort for a while, it is useless to invest in.
Anchets does a lot of dmg, but the delay is screwed up on it. It is supposed to be slower.
Heavy Crossbow does a malarkey load of dmg, but it is slow..
If you were to get an Aeolus Wing with some Ceraphum's Feathers, You would be doing just about twice the dmg as a heavy xbow with it's speed.
