About this converter
Dark Souls 2 weapons open near 105 and top at 180 base physical unupgraded. Estoc opens at 105, Longsword at 112, Rapier at 115, Broadsword and Mace and Falchion at 120, Hand Axe at 135, Bastard Sword at 140, Claymore at 145 and Zweihander at 180. That makes Zweihander equal one and a half Estocs per swing before scaling. Sortable tables show plus 10 values near double these rows, so only regular and plus 0 prints are rowed.
How to use it
Pick two weapons and a unit in the top row, for example Zweihander and Estoc. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first attack, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total attack. Try 1 Claymore against Longswords.
Only ten bases verified here since plus 10 sortable values double as max, not base. Black Dragon and special upgrade paths sit out over base ambiguity. Scaling grades and infusions sit out to keep base prints clean. Infusions rescale these bases off page. Buffs add flat damage off page.
