Claymore Analysis

Versatile Weapon

It can be said that the Claymore has the capacity to be one of the best Large Swords available. This weapon is particularly useful for the Magic Warrior build since its upgrade paths both have high bonuses to Strength and Magic.

However, it is quite difficult to obtain as it is sold at Boletarian Palace or dropped rarely by a Knight (Claymore).

The Crushing Claymore is best for melee battle styles with its power and high Strength bonus. For those who you are using the Magic Warrior build, the Blessed Claymore path is a good way to go.
