I am not ignoring scaling. I simply mentioned it as "stat adjustment" (maybe using the word scaling would have made it clearer?)

Of the Greatswords (which is what I was comparing here) BKS is the same "scaling" as all other Greatswords except the dexterity which takes a hit. That and of course the Man-Serpent Greatsword which has no dexterity but has an A scaling for strength.

And of course you have the Moonlight Greatsword with S intelligence but don't see it as useful as it does only Magic Damage and is really build specific niche.

Now the uncursed GoA does have magic damage too but lacks in the physical damage category. So people going with magic route might find it more suited to their character build? But again... better suited for those going down a niche build more so then strength/dexterity that most Greatswords lean towards.

So yes, as I mentioned GoA (cursed) would need a dexterity lean to be better used then BKS. As it really starts much lower in damage and takes a lot of build to surpass what BKS has out right and with it's own scaling.
