I just got it and am eager to test it out since I have arcane as a solid stat. The weapon skill feels similar to Sekiro's mortal draw. I initially enjoyed the katana, but soon moved away after discovering Bloodhound's Fang (it gives a nice boost Tongue) and later found katanas that needed strong INT which didn't match my mainly DEX/STR build. Right now I'm alternating between Bloodhound's Fang with Morgott's Cursed Sword and Malenia's blade. At this point the Deathrite Bird's AoE attack in the final area is tough to predict, so you have to dodge it. You can switch maps using R3/right stick. That wasn't a 50-hour process and I didn’t have to use an elevator every time I changed maps.

I faced the same problem too. My build focuses mainly on DEX/VIGOR. I use Uchigatana and Meteoric Ore, and occasionally swap Meteoric Ore for a longbow. It's helpful to remember this wasn't mentioned in the guide.

The latest patch significantly complicates many aspects, especially my blood creation! Fortunately, I ran it in a sandbox which keeps the older version available, though it’s limited to offline use and lacks bug fixes and other improvements. Building takes a long time, and they sometimes undo all that effort unexpectedly. Blood builds are powerful, but not as much as something like a Bloody Slash. On the plus side, Rivers of Blood has been patched, so I might upgrade and switch to that instead of my Blood Ucigatana.
