66 The Lv. 1 critical rate bonus provides a modest bump to the chance of landing critical hits. While not as pronounced as the Lv. 2 bonus found on the Parvel Greatsword, it still contributes meaningful extra damage over the course of longer encounters. The 19 base attack keeps the weapon competitive with the highest-tier standard longswords, sitting just 1 point below the Dewhaven and Sydmon Longswords.

2828 Five Abyss Gear slots complement the built-in Lv. 1 crit bonus. Players can build on that foundation by slotting additional crit rate cores to push the total higher, or diversify with attack power and utility cores. The weapon's balanced stat spread makes it flexible enough to support multiple build directions depending on the player's preferred playstyle.

3232 The Iris Longsword sits in a competitive bracket among standard greatswords. At 19 attack with Lv. 1 crit, it offers slightly less raw damage than the Dewhaven Longsword (20 attack, no crit) but compensates with a small chance for burst damage on critical hits. Compared to the Parvel Greatsword (19 attack, Crit Rate Lv. 2), the Iris Longsword has the same base damage but a lower crit bonus.

3434 In practice, the Iris Longsword is a solid middle-ground option. Players who have not yet found a Parvel Greatsword or Dewhaven Longsword will find this weapon more than capable of handling mid-to-late content in the combat system. Its greatsword moveset provides wide sweeping arcs for crowd control and reliable stagger buildup against tougher targets.

38-The Lv. 1 crit rate bonus is a useful starting point. Even a single crit-boosting Abyss Gear core stacked on top of it can noticeably increase the frequency of critical hits during combat.If you find both the Iris Longsword and the Parvel Greatsword, the Parvel is generally the stronger choice due to its higher crit tier, but the Iris remains a capable backup weapon.Pair this weapon with companions who can capitalize on the stagger openings you create. Two-handed greatsword swings consistently push enemies toward their stagger threshold.
