If you're looking for a weapon to safely shoot enemies from a distance, it compares very favorably to the Evelynn. I was even out damaging the Evelynn with the bow blade when I started messing around in the high level endgame chalices with my gunner character (on normal shots). If you have low blood tinge you can still use it mainly just as a sword, but you end up with a weapon that only has half of a move set -- the transformation changes it into a bow, and the bow is really just that. A bow.

Also I wouldn't put all of your eggs into the church pick basket, to be honest. It fits into the same niche as the other C tier weapons I mentioned above, maybe borderline B tier. It has a unique style and it's kinda cool, but it's not that great to use. The two handed version has weird hitboxes and attack timing, and less stagger than a 2H weapon should have. Meanwhile, the one handed weapon feels slower than a one handed weapon should be, and feels like it has a limited and clunky attack path. One thing it has going for it is really high arcane scaling.

Meanwhile, if you are doing a skill build, you can pick up the Rakuyo which is easily a B/A tier weapon. Similar to the whirligig saw, the Rakuyo feels very fun and satisfying to use, and it actually has a good enough speed, move pool, and stagger that it IS very useable.

all the rest weren't so unfortunate
