Mmmm yes str/int katana my beloved

Moonveil = Cringe
This = the best katana

Fashion is the real meta

55 STR 45 INT 2 handed +10 gives 501 phy 259 magic. Pretty damn good.

Ichimonji

I had to look up a video for the Pierce attack on this weapon. Running Heavy 1h and 2h. If anyone is interested. The rest of the moves are all slash based.

Submit

Guarded by Bug folk, glintstone inside (red hue). Crystalians, crystal weapons and the giant crystal under the Academy of Rya Lucaria are all infected with scarlet rot. Tell me i am insane, but did the rot arrive by meteor? Did that meteor wipe out the era of the black ruin civilization that build all those black pillar ruins?

Submit

Thanks, I love it.

Submit

Don't sleep on the guard counter on this. Higher stance damage than other katanas. You've got that strength, so you can greatshield. You are going to hit that 40 in two counters.
Redmane for the fashionable amongst you.

Submit

It checks out that the only katana focused on strength rather than dex requires intellgence

Submit

The aow pairs beautifully with the R2. Nothing like dragging a flying enemy down and smacking them with the ichimonji while they're prone.

Submit

is this katana good for a starter katana

Submit

"Forged from meteoric ore"
It's Sokka's long lost Space Sword.

Submit

In PVE just spam the charged attack and forget the AOW.

Submit

Aow adds something katanas dont usually have - crowd control, and that r2 is schmexy and makes you look like a skilled swordsman or some sekiro guy. Not to mention the moonveil-y combination of slash, magic and bleed which is quite useful (those who are strong vs slash are usually weak to magic and vice versa, and bleed is bleed). But the real thing is still the r2. If you like it, you won't be able to use other katanas at all.

gorgeous blade

Radahn's dex phase when he was a teenager

Submit

Nah this weapon got done so dirty by giving it that stupid ahh aow...needs something like a push instead, so I can feel like pain ffs

Submit

Combine this with Alberich's set for the finest spellblade drip in the Lands Between.

Submit

Almost every other katana is filled with users who are anime stans and/or meta slaves, EXCEPT for this one. Here we only have gigachad sake drinkers, Ichimonji enthusiasts, and those who never hesitate. For if you hesitate, you lose.

TLDR: The katana for those who touch grass

Submit

I really wish the meteor staff would've been a strength int catalyst, so you can make an actual build using this and the other Gravitation magic weapons. Would've been sick. Digger's staff should've been str/int too, imo.

Submit

My only personal disappointment is that you can't infuse it with ashes of war (Wanted to put cragblade on it because the whole meteor thing) because I'm working on a very specific character; but hey, can't always get what you want and still a great sword anyways.

Submit

This thing is very good for a simple reason: the split damage. Most weapons that deal physical and an elemental damage have a lower than usual physical attack value, but not Metoeric Ore Blade. This katana only has 3 less physical damage than uchi along with 72 magic damage.

Submit

Shockingly good against Malenia. The speed and outright comical distance of the charged R2 make it so you can quickly and safely get one off when otherwise you couldn't with almost any other weapon. The great damage for a katana and the decent bleed build-up are also a great help.
Also makes you feel like Isshin Ashina so 11/10, just don't hesitate.

Submit

I refuse to believe this thing doesn't do more poise damage than regular katanas.

Submit

Using this to pull people into Roiling Magma makes me happy

Submit

Uses the generic blue magic effect when hitting enemies instead of the cool purple gravity effect. Literally unusable.

Submit

i swear they do more poise damage (placebo moment)

Submit

Imagine if this one had waves of destruction

Submit

insane ar and dps especially when 2 handed

Submit

using this with carian retaliation on a shield is pretty good

Submit

How my blood boils!

Submit

Come, Sekiro!

Submit

Ichimonji: Double

Submit

With very minimum stat investments you can grab this meteorite staff and rock sling and profit off of poise damage

Submit

if anybody needs an idea for a new playthrough, grab this and the meteor staff right off the bat. guaranteed fun times ahead

Submit

The weapon skill isn't valued enough for this specific weapon. A bonus would be nice, but pulling your enemies towards this monster of a katana is good enough.

Submit

Why should I care about meta when I drink sake and stop hesitation?

Submit

haven't tested in pvp but double rupture tear into l2 is a nasty inescapable killer in any pve area at the cost of ~700 hp which you can offset in a lot of ways, just make sure the enemy can be pulled and your pvp opponent has glaucoma so they don't see it coming

Submit

1- this deserves better than a mediocre l2 that anyone with enough brain matter to justify their head being on their shoulder can see coming and 2 - this should absolutely do extra damage to elden beast considering its also a lifeform sent to earth on a (golden) falling star

Submit

Kizaru build.

Submit

The Ash of War should've also given this thing 1: a Cragblade effect increasing attack power and poise damage, and 2: a follow-up attack like that of Earthshaker, Waves of Darkness and Golden Land.

Submit

Moonveil for people who touch grass

Submit

I've been looking at motion value and poise damage value spreadsheets, and it seems that the comment about higher poise damage value on the charge R2 is either A. false, or B. wrong on every single spreadsheet i've looked at. Would love some confirmation on this

Submit

Petition to have the gravitas skill give this weapon the cragblade effect

Submit

If you wanted a run with alabaster lord’s sword and was disappointed… This is the armament for you! So much fun. Obtainable via a start of game suicide grocery run in Caelid which by now I’m sure everyone does instinctively.

Submit

Never thought I'd see the day, but they actually made a based katana. What strange times we live in

Submit

The fact the charged R2 feels like a true combo with gravitas really sold this weapon for me. ICHIMONJI

Submit

Just did a casual speedrun with this, all remembrances in under 7 hrs. Its good, the charged attack is nice, just the ash of war was not helpful for bosses

Submit

18 int for this weapon and meteor staff, greatest 9 stat points I ever invested

Submit

So many comments about the poise/stance stats for this weapon and no one actually testing?

The fully charged R2 seems to deal 30 stance damage, the same as Unsheathe, Lion's Claw and the Square Off light attack.

3x fully charged R2 vs Tree Sentinel (80 poise)
3x fully charged R2 vs Tibia Mariner (80 poise)
4x fully charged R2 vs Erdtree Avatar (120 poise)

The only weird thing is that with the Stonebarb tear it increase this stance damage by 30% which would make the Meteoric Ore Blade fully charged R2 deal 39 stance damage. However it only took 3 fully charged R2 to stance break the Erdtree Avatar (which would give 39 x 3 = 117 stance damage, 3 short). Is it rounded up maybe, or something else is going on with poise stacking with this weapon.

the second mortal blade

Submit

Imagine if the Gravitas skill here also added the Cragblade buff...

Submit

According to the AR calculator at tarnished dot dev, at max attributes and refinement, the Meteoric Ore Blade is the single highest DPS weapon in all the Lands Between.

Submit

Shame that the only Katana with an aptitude for strength is also un-buffable and cannot be infused.

Submit

FEAR MY MINECRAFT PIXAXE ATTACK!!!

Submit

Unique for being the only katana in Elden Ring to scale more with STR than DEX. Ironic that is also an INT weapon.

Submit

Identical base damage to Rosus' Axe, but lower scaling for every attribute. Longer, but heavier. Innate bleed. Both have pretty mediocre ashes of war, but Gravitas is handy for stormhawks and bats, and can hilariously yoink an enemy player off a ledge to their deaths, so, i guess my ultimate point is if you like one, try the other, but MOB is probably the better weapon overall despite the lower damage.

Submit

K, so i'm trying to figure out how are these people convinced that the r2 isnt as poise-breaking as other katanas's r2, despite in-field testing giving me the results of putting some greathammers to shame. Then it hit me. Maybe it is true that r2 doesn't have a special poise-break value, but all attacks done with this weapon has it since it deals gravity damage. Stunlocked the hell out of fallingstar beast with some r1 and even interrupted the charged attack with a timed r2.

So yeah, it looks like the r2 breaks more poise than other katanas because it's easier to land and is way more consistent in it's hitbox, but in truth ALL attacks have the poise-breaking trait because each hit has gravity damage behind, similar to the wing of astel.

Submit

One of the few only non-hammer "slamming your weapon on the ground" attacks I really like, because it doesn't look like "my weapon is too heavy for me to wield properly", it looks like a unique and controlled and deliberate technique where you swing with so much force that your weapon bounces off the ground intentionally, made possible by the unique absurd (fantasy-level) durability of the sword. The damage MV is a little lower than other Katana R2s and the poise damage is exactly the same, but at least the distance covered by the charged up R2 seems a little extra long (haven't actually tested but it feels long). Although the sword itself is very short for a Katana... but at least its DPS is very high for a Katana (at both low and high Strength investment, because it has very high base stats) and its damage type is more versatile than usual because the mixed-in Magic helps make up for the letdowns of Slash type damage (vs "hard" enemies).

Submit

The AR Calculator at tarnished.dev recently got DPS Calculation as a feature. I'm currently running a build with 49/14/20 STR/INT/DEX, centered around the Carian Knight Sword and Crystal Sword (it's a for-fun build), and the AR calculator claims that the best DPS weapon for single-wielding with my build (across all weapons and infusions) is... the Meteoric Ore Blade. Meanwhile the best weapons for dual wielding in my build are apparently the Bandit's Fire Curved Sword or Fire Venomous Fang, but those are only a tiny bit ahead of the Crystal Sword which is one of the weapons I was building around (and is a legit damage weapon if you build for it). Anyway I'm gonna grab this weapon as an alternate option in my build.

Submit

Basically an early game super power weapon. Suicide run is required to get it, but it's quite easy with a bit of practice.

Mages in the early using this katana and Meteor Staff can easily be carried until they get a stronger weapon: use the Ore Blade to kill weaker enemies to conserve your magic for bosses and stronger enemies.

Submit

Pros:
High AR, good strength scaling so viable to two hand instead of power stance like most katanas.
Unique R2 often catches people off-guard
Cons:
Low range
Somewhat heavy
Ash of war is meh, really wish they would’ve given this thing a unique ash of war, then it may of been my favorite weapon in ER

Submit

People really still think this thing does extra poise damage huh? Funny what some colorful wording can cause.
Don't get me wrong, it's a great weapon and the R2s are fantastic but they deal exactly the same amount of poise damage as typical katanas/straight swords/etc.
If you still want to believe otherwise, I recommend actually opening up the game and comparing charged R2s between this, an uchi, and a longsword.

Submit

how does this weigh more than a nagakiba? i get its made out of rocks, but it can't be heavier than a sword triple its length

Submit

missed opportunity to make it strike/pierce

Submit

this thing needs a new ash of war, gravitas is hot gravit-ASS

Submit

R2 doesn't deal more poise damage than any other katana or any other light weapon. So that's just misinformation.

Submit

R2 doesn't deal pierce so no

Submit

Shame on me stumpeld over this at ng 17 first time... but so far i also never seen Goldmask too

Submit

So it says in the notes and tips section that it cannot be enchanted nor boosted with consumables, but in the upgrades section it says that it can be enchanted and boosted.
So which is it?

Submit

the L2 on this thing is great for chopping your Elden Veggies

Submit

The L2 is called "Gravitas" because there wasn't enough space for

"Get Your Butt Back Here Chump, I'm Not Done Slashing It Yet."

Submit

with 25 str and 41-50 int this weapon still has pretty insane AR for a katana. Can be fun with cold wakizashi off hand or shield for some magic knight buids. Only really beaten by magic greatswords, which i guess is no surprise.

Submit

could have been cool if this was a strike damage katana

Submit

R2 actually has a lower motion value than other katana R2s

Submit

missed opportunity to make the int scale physical damage as well

The virgin Moonveil versus the chad Meteoric Ore Blade

Submit

"Charged r2 on this weapon deals a lot of poise damage, useful for bosses that you can poise break."

Why is this added here?
It's not untrue, but it's kinda misleading. This Katana does the same amount of poise-damage as any other Katana.
It's like saying "using R1 is great for dealing damage"

Submit

R2 is a great anti air defence in pvp

Submit

Any testing on the Gravitas skill scaling with INT? Curious as to how it does at say, 50 vs 80. Trying to decide if I want to go max STR or INT. Once I get to the academy again I’ll respec and report if not.

Submit

The Elden Beast should be included. It's an alien too

Submit

I love the Sekiro comments under this weapon

Submit

I'm a strength user with 70 points in str and 20-ish points in int to weild a +10 ruins greatsword, wich effectively leaves nothing but ruins behind the areas a go through. Been trying this meteoric ore blade out of curiosity of a katana scaling well with strength and made it to +8.

Just let me tell you something: the ONLY con it has in comparison to the ruins greatsword is 10-ish less poise damage on hits. Similar damage, faster, bleed aux, skull-crushing r2, decent block stability, gravitas... uncanny to build, but damn worth investing.

Submit

the cooler int katana

Submit

Chadtana

Submit

better than moonveil because i don't need to beat a stupid copy pasted boss to get it

Submit

charging the r2 should make it go a lot further imo

Submit

In previous games gravity was my nemesis now it is my ally.

Submit

Everybody gangsta till a crucible knight wields this

Submit

Yamato at home. Change my mind.

Pd: gravitas is overlooked until you remember this weapon has innate bleed proc

Submit

L2 should apply cragblade. change my mind.

Submit

If only it summoned a single rock/comet/meteor, even if for aesthetic. Then you can RP as Issho/Fujitora from One Piece with his gravity sword tech.

Submit

I think the hilts are like rapiers because they're created by nobles rather than Land of Reeds. Weapons like Eleanor's Poleblade came from the Land of Reeds as is evident by their hilt.

Submit

Notice how the weapon has bloodstones like Alberich's Set. It's as though the weapon is a blunt object that draws blood from enemies by use of the stones. This makes sense because it's like Dark Soul's Berserker or Black Blade which is a poisebreaking katana. I've never noticed a weapon have lore like that. This makes it one of the coolest weapons in the game. I think the hilts are like rapiers because they're created by Western nobles rather than Land of Reeds. Weapons like Eleanor's Poleblade came from the Land of Reeds as is evident by their hilt.

Submit

If you are hesitant to use this weapon, here are my reasons for using it:
1. looks sick as ****
2. ICHIMONJI
3. Gravitas is great (I'm invading and am 1v2 most of the time)
4. reminds me of Black Blade, which is great if you liked that weapon in DSIII
5. great moveset
6. this is not Moonveil bro. It's shorter, heavier, the scaling is more str focused, and the special is "worse". you don't have to feel like a metaslave when you use this
7. and most importantly this looks sick as ****
