Actually with 40 strength and 40 dex and 10 humanity this sword has a 564 AR so it CAN be a very strong weapon. Even if you only have say 22 strength to 1 hand it and 40 dex and 10 humanity (dex build focused around using this sword sometimes) it will still have an AR of 499 which is even better than other Greatswords (Claymore =524@40 str and 460@22 str with 40 dex). The regular Greatsword of Artorias is still the best in like NG++ if you have a 40/40/40/40 build but most people never play long enough to get that and never realize its full damage potential and the strong attack is similar to the black knight sword which has very high starting lag and is very situational at best and requiring to poise through hits most of the time to hit the mark.
