Somewhere around Depths to Blighttown.

It's really only "OP" on enemies that are fairly easy to kill anyways, so it has little value to anyone who doesn't just want to quickly get a temporary, strong weapon, like a speedrunner or someone making a low SL build. As a newbie, you're usually better off using a normal weapon to familiarize yourself with the upgrading and scaling mechanics, as they're crucial post-Depths.
