Depends on your lv. Yes a +15 is great if u'r a high lv dex build but the higher u'r lv the less PvP action u will c which sucks. Personally I always think its a huge waste investing lots of lv ups in dex and strength. I stick at lv 15 and play as a Dark Wraith with just enough dex and strenght to wield the weapons I use. With a +5 Chaos rapier n hornet ring u can one shot most players off the screen and it takes no stats at all and not much weaker than the best possible damage by other means. The easiest and fastest route early on in the game for getting a high damage rapier would unquestionably be by making +4 lighting rapier. Anor Londo has all the upgrade items needed inc titanite chunks dropped by giants and u will get their quickly enough, might even get a few extra titanite chunks from summons etc. The beauty of the lighting enchantment is there is no reliance on having 10 humanities unlike chaos so its an excellent choice while learning the weapon and invariably dying a lot while doing so lol. It wont be too far behind damage of a chaos version anyway
