it depends. if you are going for dps, orthos prime would top because of more swings per second. but in this game, you rarely go for dps with melee. 1-hit ko is the best way to go with melee (at least with heavies), and this weapon will get that done with the right build. later with higher level enemies, even when invisible (loki or ash), orthos prime may only take out 90% of the health of most mobs, while galatine will usually 1 hit all of them. and yes orthos prime has more reach, but it's really how many can be caught in the swing that counts. galatine can also get up to 5 targets, so it's ideal for charge builds. yes it's swing speed is slower, but for loki and ash this is one of the best for charge builds due to higher likelihood of killing with one blow
