Is treespear the ultimate weapon?

Seriously, name me one weapon better then treespear.

Used it from LVL 30-200 beat entire game with it and cruising through the easy DLC with it .

Carian Slicer is the best weapon.

Someone has finished the game using nothing but a shield. Best weapon is subjective.

This one is hard to argue. It makes quick work of anyone not highly resistant to magic... even then...

Oh but now there's a sunflower for true flower power. I love it and I'm not going to stop using it

The best weapon is obviously the wooden club

Lightning Perfume Bottle is the best I've found so far. No cap either. I 3 shot the last boss of the DLC with a Lightning Perfume Bottle build I found on Youtube, and it probably would of been a 2 shot if I didn't whiff one of the shots.

the double poke on teh r2 is lowkey strong

I rocked 2 Keen Treespears during my vanilla playthrough and wrecked everything with next to no effort. I just spammed the jump attack

Bloodhound's fang, perfume bottles, kgs, claymore, backblades, mo-- Oh wait you just said one weapon. Sorry.

Moghwyn's Sacred Spear. It's an excellent weapon, with built in bloodflame, and the ash on it does serious damage, aoe, *with* massive bleed buildup.

The damage is good enough for bosses immune to bleed even.

Do you use the spear because you can use it with a shield? I actually prefer Moghwyns Sacred Spear for that. Normally i use twin great stars. I just love the strong bleed proc and the ability to stagger almost anything.

I used the Bloodhound's Fang for the whole game, including the DLC. Very good damage, bleed, decent range and speed, nice ash of war.
Only for Malenia i switched to double Bandit Curved Swords, cause i felt i needed something faster.

There is no "best weapon". It depends on your build.

In my case, I'm running a Darkmoon Greatsword build focused on the weapon skill, so I use godfrey icon, alexander shard, magic scorpion charm and dragoncrest greatshield talisman. So for me, the ultimate weapons are Darkmoon Greatsword and Glintstone Kris (this weapon tends to be overlooked, but the skill damage is insane, and it consumes very little FP).

Thats a strange way to spell "Raptors talons"

Short spear with cold affinity via ice spear skill. Everything works with that. Cold is the element that no enemy has immunization for except for frostbite. Maximum resistance 20%, standard resistance for all enemies including bosses 0%, best debuff on frost -20%. A few enemies are immune to frostbite but not cold, mostly bosses. Not many are...

Plus the double stab with a charged spear, which brings cold and possibly frostbite in no time at all. And cold, the gray mist on the enemy brings another 20% more damage from every source. It doesn't get any better than that, in my opinion.


No weight, reasonable range, poke behind a shield if desired, quick light attack, the spear itself is available very early even as starting equipment, the ice spear skill is also available quite early from Liurnia. Frost also works well without high intelligence due to the spear's double attack.

And can easily last until the final boss and even beyond. Frost also works in the DLC - surprise. No good for min-max.
