What does making a weapon raw do in DS1?

In Dark Souls 1, Raw weapons provide higher base damage early in the game by significantly boosting the initial attack power while removing or drastically reducing Strength and Dexterity stat scaling, making them great for low-level characters or specific builds but quickly outclassed by scaled weapons in the late game as stats increase. They're a strong temporary boost, especially for new players who haven't leveled stats, but are a "dead-end" upgrade path, as they can't reach the powerful +15 Normal scaling.
