Talk:Moonlight Greatsword (Dark Souls III)/@comment-204.235.168.26-20180410021855

Is this a fake like the Bluemoon Greatsword from DSII? The blue colour and the fact it does physical would indicate that it is, but it also does magic damage and has the ability to do ranged magic attacks like the real incarnations. Is it more like an attempt to recreate the original but only partially succeeding?

That makes the most sense to me seeing as the description says Oceiros never found the moonlight: he attempted to and only partially succeeded in imitating Seath, and perhaps in the same way the sword is an imperfect attempt at recreating the Moonlight Greatsword. If Oceiros never found the moonlight then a sword made with his soul wouldn't have Seath's moonlight, but the ranged attacks and the skill being named "Moonlight Vortex" indicate it does possess the power of moonlight. Does anyone have anymore of an idea of what's going on here?
