What does Ludwig's Holy Blade scale off of?

Ludwig's Holy Blade scales with Strength (STR) and Skill (SKL) for physical damage in its normal form, benefiting from "Quality" builds, but gains strong Arcane (ARC) scaling if you use elemental blood gems to convert its damage type (like Fire, Bolt, or pure Arcane), making it excellent for Arcane builds too. For maximum physical damage, level both STR and SKL (often to 25/25 or 50/50); for Arcane builds, convert it with gems to scale solely with Arcane.
