Are there faster strength weapons in ER? The cliché is a slow, hard-hitting weapon, but in Lies of P, for example, you can build yourself a fast weapon that scales off motivity, STR equivalent in LoP, and be pretty much as fast as a standard “dex” weapon.
Sort of as there aren’t really any slow attacking weapons. Maybe the whip. Or magic.
Recovery times are the bigger factor for big weapons: they have much longer recovery times after attacking so you are punished for your aggression/greed rather than on light weapons.
But the big weapons are balanced in that they cause posture/stance breaks for ripostes much faster than lighter weapons, in so rewarding aggression/greed.

I can’t think of one off the top of my head, but I’m sure there has to be a faster weapon that you could put a str scaling ash on and be fine.
