In-game explanation: None, except that maybe it had something to do with the Abyss, or him being some special rare/mutant species of dragon that could resist Lightning damage.
Actual explanation: Miyazaki wanted to make a boss you couldn't cheese with elemental damage, so he ignored his own lore and pulled Kalameet out of his own ass.

We had a good run yesterday. If you dont know what this is yet, post a weapon (preferably uncommon ones) and I will try to make it sound good then proceed to shit on it
Crescent Axe
-it's long. For an axe -it has HA on 2h R1 (i still dont know if WC r2 have HA or not. Uncharged ones of course) -It's the only halberd with WC -Light. For a halberd
It could have been so good if it had the axe moveset on 1h and then halberd on 2h. Unfortunately that's a DkS OG thing. Even the Dark souls 2 version wasn't terrible. Well, being a halberd means it's shitty in a gank situation due to the moveset, in addition it's remarkably short... for a halberd.
This is a weapon that struggles with its identity. Is it an axe, or a halberd? It's like that one happa kid you know in school who fit in neither in the white crowd or the asian crowd. The crescent axe in DkS 3 struggles to out perform neither of its parents. It does not have the speed of an axe, neither does it have the reach and damage of a halberd.
But here's the magical thing about this weapon: It's an axe with long reach and HA, thanks to its halberd moveset. Being the only halberd with WC, you gain access to the special R2 that, combined with the longer reach, becomes one of the best at roll catching. If you're good enough, you can hit an opponent with BOTH of the WC R2's, first being direct hit, 2nd being a roll catch, all thanks to the reach it has in conjunction with the animation.
Try this puppy out if you havent.
7/10 I wish it has axe moveset on 1h

>invade true pvp champion >never ever attacks first, just walks back and forth with his shield up and mashes R1 with his straight sword >switch to red hilted halberd and knight slayer ring and rape him to death

How do I go about making a Moonlight GS build in DS3? Should I start as a sorcerer or knight and just level in the stats?
