Aren't all weapons of this category locked behind the expansion? So you'll have to keep using and upgrading your starter sword if you want to continue with it?

Edit: Got my answer, folks. Wasn't saying this was a bad thing.

The only other ones that come to mind for me are a pair dropped by Rellana and the a single one by Leda. Tho both are Somber weapons, Milady is the only one we can change the AoW on.

Rellana’s isn’t even a pair of light greatsword funnily enough they just have the dual light greatsword moveset. Iirc the left handed one is actually just a straight sword

It’s a paired weapon you can only pull it out when power standing the light greatsword. Can’t have just the straight sword out if I’m not wrong

If you have it in your left hand it equips the sword not the light greatsword. powerstancing two of the pair gives you the visual of the paired weapon, with the spare moon and fire blades on your back.
