You're right that if you use them right they perform better but they still struggle in a lot of ways. The lack of reach in particular really hurts. Still love them to death, they're illustriously cool, but I do think they're only like high-C/low-B in strength

It depends who I'm fighting.

Against beasts, especially bigger ones, they really suffer with the lack of range. But against single, humanoid opponents there's nothing I'd rather have. Against hunters specifically when you get through the first full attack animation and the attack speed ramps up significantly I just carve the fuck out of any NPC Hunter.
