Ive heard it before, insack ive even had the problem myself! if your new and you just dont know what wepon to use then a look at this guide might help you. if you dont know how to change your wepon go into your house, then go to the box, press square and click on change equipment

Sword and sheild: The sword and sheild is the wepon that you start off with, it is quick and nimble and you can get in many combo`s therefor dealing a deacent amount of damage. the sheild can defend quite a bit of damage, but you can be knocked out of your guard if your not careful!
can also be upgraded into dewl swords whitch you dont get in your box

rating 8/10 good for beginers and veterans alike

Great sword: this sword slows you down and is a bit slow on its atacks aswell, but you get a good solid defence that is very hard to break and the damage that it puts out more than makes up for its slowness! this dose slow your movement when weilded though

rating 6/10 hard to get the hang of but is very rewarding!

Hammer: this is a very slow wepon to use and it has no defending move atall! but instead it has a charging ability that goes through 3 stages of charging, the 3rd charge relieses the bigest combo and the 1st is the smallest, this alowes you to pul of huge dammage combo's

rating 5/10 it dosent slow you down but dose slow your atacks, and the charging takes energy and time

lance: this wepon has a good range and very good penetrating attacks. but the attacks are slow and you dont have any combo's to use, but the defence is superb and you get to move whilst defending and you get to charge foward into enemys but this uses up alot of energy!

rating 8/10 its very good at geting through monsters hide but is slow though you can move and defend, so its not all bad!
