Disagree about the not embued weapons. These guys don't have a specific weakness to any element, no, and they are stout against thunder. However, you really gotta look at the COMBINATION of Strength & Magick to see. They take 100% damage from fire or ice for example. So it's a case by case basis in terms of which weapon to use against what.

The Golden Bardiches are 529 STR Goldforged. Heaven's Key is 475 plus the 773 Magick(Holy). They have no particular resistance to Holy, so they take the full Holy damage. You should be doing more with HK. Period. If you weren't, then there were other factors involved besides just the nature of the weapons. Honestly, even against guys strong against Holy you're still gonna do about as much damage, if not more. Let's say they only take 30% Holy damage. Well that 30% + the physical damage(475 STR) you get will surely equal, if not exceed, the damage the GBs(529 STR only) will do.
