Bastard Sword Analysis

Lacks Offensive Power

When compared to other large swords, the Bastard Sword lacks power. Furthermore, the straight sword the Knight class starts with has longer reach compared to the Bastard Sword. One advantage of this weapon is that you can get it very early at the Boletarian Palace.

It is recommended to upgrade the Bastard Sword normally unti +8, then you can use it to get the better Morion Blade. It will be a waste of materials if any other path is chosen as there are better Large Swords out there.
