About this converter
Dark Souls 3 straight swords open near 70 and top at 131 base physical before upgrades. Broken and Cleric physical open at 70, Shortsword at 99, Gotthard at 100, Lothric Knight at 103, Lothric Holy at 107, Longsword at 110, Barbed at 111, Sunlight at 112, Dark at 115, Anri and Broadsword at 117, Astora at 129 and Morion at 131. That makes Morion near double Broken per swing before scaling. Every figure here is unupgraded base physical, so scaling grades and infusions sit out.
How to use it
Pick two swords and a unit in the top row, for example Morion Blade and Longsword. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first sword, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total attack. Try 1 Morion against Broken swords.
Cleric Candlestick also deals 77 magic on top of 70 physical, but only physical is rowed for clean math. Twinswords hit twice per press, so sheet DPS doubles the listed 100. Bleed on Barbed and Morion adds 34 aux off page.
