From the guide book
Crushing single hits and simple controls
The heavy, huge Great Sword swings slowly, but nothing hits harder. The charged vertical slash, done by holding △, deals especially big damage to monsters. It has only three attacks: the vertical slash, the upswing and the sideswipe. That makes it simple and easy to handle, and the best weapon for learning to fight "hit and away". You move slowly with the weapon drawn, so sheathe it before moving whenever you can. The Great Sword can also guard, but it guards with the blade, so guarding uses up Sharpness. If you get pushed far back, use a Whetstone.
