Weapon recs

Question

I'm starting my first playthrough of this game for about 8 years, and trying to decide on a build.

I never used Farron GS or Hollowslayer GS so I'm going with them this time. Wiki tells me these are Dex-leaning quality weapons, so I think I'll do a Dex build. I grabbed the winblades as a starter but I don't want to use something that strong for most of the game. I'm also gonna try out the Astora UGS.

In the past I used Murakumo, Drang Twinspears and Uchi.

Do you recommend any Dex weapons I didn't mention? Bonus points if found early or not a katana or UGS.

Thanks!
