Overview
Rhett's Longsword is a two-handed weapon in Crimson Desert that emphasizes speed over raw power. At 13 Attack Power, it has the lowest base damage among the longswords, but it compensates with an Attack Speed Lv.1 bonus that lets you swing noticeably faster than other two-handed options. The result is a weapon that feels less sluggish than a typical greatsword while still benefiting from the reach and area coverage of the two-handed weapon class.
This longsword suits players who find the standard two-handed pacing too slow but do not want to give up the damage advantage that comes with wielding a large weapon. The faster swing speed means more hits per opening, which can actually result in higher sustained damage than a slower, harder-hitting blade if you land your combos consistently.

Combat Tips
The Attack Speed bonus changes how you approach fights with a two-handed weapon. Instead of landing one heavy hit and dodging away, Rhett's Longsword lets you squeeze in an extra swing during the same window. Against enemies with short stagger recoveries, that additional hit can mean the difference between finishing them off and having to reset.
This longsword pairs well with an aggressive, combo-oriented playstyle. Chain your light and heavy attacks together, using the speed bonus to keep pressure on enemies before they can retaliate. The lower base damage is a real trade-off against armored enemies and bosses with large health pools, where you may want to switch to something with more raw power like the Absolute Justice Greatsword or the Thalwynd Longsword.
Use the 5 core slots to shore up the base damage gap. Attack-boosting cores help push the per-hit numbers closer to the heavier longswords, while the natural speed advantage remains on top.
