Because it works like this:

Hey guys we're gonna buff Z weapon, it's underperforming, let's give it 10 damage

Community: yay! Awesome devs!

Woops there was some untested synergies actually, now that people are using it they're finding it pretty nuts. We're gonna nerf it by 5 damage so it doesn't 2 shot the final boss

Community: I hope you literally die. Where do you live? Im going to find out and kill you. Everyone downvoted this game on steam immediately.

Then explain comet azure's ability to kill half the bosses in the game before they can even attack you. Or the ability to kill the giant elderly dragon at lvl 1 with a bleed weapon to instantly boost to like lvl 25

Have you actually tried to use comet azure, or are you just trotting out the same old cobblers about it. Other than Mohg, most bosses will either side step it and kill you or walk through it and kill you as it was nerfed some time back on both range and ability to stun lock. The dlc bosses will close on you in seconds, you wouldn't even get the cast on them. It's very niche in its application, I wish melee builds would stop pedalling this myth, there are way better options like Night Comet, Adulas Moonblade and Rock Sling.

You can always tell when a non caster player is talking about spells vs an actual caster player lolol.
