Main Issue:
The Dragon Slayer is one of the most importants calcs of Berserk as it basis of Gut's LS and AP. Originally, @Viott calculated the Dragon Slayer to be 258 kg (568.7926 lbs), but seeing the calculation with fresh eyes I noticed a few errors. The full debunk is in the blog, but I will summarize the points.
  • Viott used Gut’s Head Height when insted he measured Face Height
  • He used a panel chapter 373 which is after the original author's death. This means, the art likely does not reflect the original author's Artistic Vision.
  • The panel is a dream seuquence, makinng it unreliable
  • He used the length of the Crossguard which inflates the measurements.
  • He didn’t source any of his claims for Gut’s height
  • He found the Total Volume of Dragon Slayer by finding the sum of a Triangular Prism and a Trapezoid Prism. However, both of these assume that the base of the object is rectangular. Dragon Slayer’s base is not rectangular but hexagonal
  • He forgot to include the handle, pommel, and crossguard.

My method for finding the new weight of the Dragon Slayer looks complicated, but its actually pretty simple. I used a trapezoidal pyramid to find the bulk of the weight. Then, I used a frustum of a pyramid to find the tip of the Dragon Slayer ( a frustum is just a fancy way of saying a pyramid with the top chopped, I fully explain this is in the blog) and re-used this method to find the "fins" of the Dragon Slayer. Finding the volume of the Crossguard, Handle, and Pommel is pretty self-explanatory just very tedious.

I also recalculated the AP of Guts using the new weight. I should note this isn't calc-stacking. The Dragon Slayer is Gut's main way of attacking and in all the calcs he is using the Dragon Slayer is some way.
I also put @ElJoaki5's yet unevaluated recalc of Gut's Preventing Lightning Strike. This is if the recalc is approved, and it can be used to find Guts' AP instead.
Finally, Viott looked over the calculations and agreed that he miscalculated and and thinks that the Recalc looks good.

TL;DR: The Dragon Slayer calc is outdated and this should be used in future calcs instead.

CALC WAS ACCEPTED

You can’t use the dragon slayer weight for Guts stopping the javelin since he had a different sword then
 
Bumping Again. I will make 7-C Guts a reality (or Low 7-C). Yes, I am still working on the Magic Page.

I mean the Mother Box Calc did the same thing and it worked.

Also, Day 4 of No Mods.
MASSIVE BUMP
And 40 Pushups
 
Man'll do 50 push-ups today, hope Ash Crow can inspire you today

(Have you reached mods and admins' walls?)
 
I still got two calcs not checked for a year. You'll be fine. Thug it out.
 
when it gets to 100, you get to start this with sit-ups too
then with running
let's see this man become saitama lol

I'm not sure if Guts' Ls and AP calculations would be accepted again.
The @TheRustyOne rejected the idea of using a sword to get AP.
Another member rejected the idea here as well.

First, even in said post their are similar calcs that got approved.
Sceond, it wasn't rejected by @TheRustyOne. He wasn't involved with either calc, so I don't know why you are bringing him up.
Third, @Dalesean027 entire arguement rests on "destruction caused by each shot in the manga". Berserk has 7-C feats which Guts scales to.
