I loved it since NG 1.

Sure, there's many thing that I like about it such as:

-Fast weapon
-Wide range
-multiple hit --->gain ki faster

Seriously, the way how a Lunar staff is used in this game is just insane, and it's still as good as how it used to be.

However, the problem in this version is that it can't chain SoB, but I still LOVED it.

I seriously love it, I usually stick to dual swords, but opted to try the Lunar Staff once I got it, and have stuck with it for a while. Upgrading it just gets even more rewarding...

I love it too, but unfortunately for me the lack of SoB chain-ability is a big deal in UN runs with the high karma price for each skill and upgrade, I need that karma multiplier, and the health boost and easy reduction in foes from the chain comes in handy too

but the lunar comes out when chaining isn't an issue, like fighting chimera

on lower difficulties or when playing a UN NG+ then earning karma to upgrade isn't as necessary for me, then the LS makes for fun gaming, but then so does the KG

I find the staff great for building ki but the damage isn't what I like it to be.....

I found myself preferring the Kusari Gama for a lot of the reasons the Lunar Staff is touted for, in addition to actually being good at SoB chains. The lasso swinging with the X button was good for poking Chimeras too.

even the "sword saint" Miyamoto Musashi said of the KG master Shishido "In the hands of an adept, the kusari-gama is the most difficult weapon to forestall." In the midst of all my complaining of Hayashi and his melee targeting programming choices, I gotta say that his upgrades to the KG have also made it a fun and terrific weapon to use in RE. I've found the fully upgraded scythe's SoB chaining to be the most reliable to find targets and garner all 4 kills in the upper difficulties, but the KG only whiffs that 4th kill perhaps 1 out of 6, and it's 360 degree range, jumping ID, and i-frame throwing power makes for great crowd control.

Sorry TC, I didn't mean to hijack your thread. As I said above, much love to the lunar too.

Oh right, I just remembered that the KG has possibly the worst Ultimate Technique, so that's a huge win for Lunar.
