Farming Black Knight Sword

[^whut?]

Im trying to get the knights honor archievement and the last dropping weapon i am missing is the black knight sword.

Should be dropping at the Kiln, but all i get there are great-swords and the dragonslayer sword.

Wiki says there are 5 BK at Kiln, Sword - G-Sword - Sword - Axe - Helbard.
For me it is G.Sword-Dragonslayer Sword- G.Sword - etc.

What is this? Where do i get the frickin black knight sword from?

The first and third guys drop it. Just try try again, it is random chance after all, you're just unlucky.

i did at least 20 runs already, inventory full of greatswords

Like I said, you just got bad luck, each black knight has a chance to drop the weapon they are wielding, the ones that have greatswords drop greatswords, the ones that have regular swords drop regular swords, etc.

Also, you probably know this already, but humanity and the gold serpent ring and the symbol of avarice boost item drop rates so use those for maximized effect.

THATS the point, why does not one of the sword wielding bois drop a normal sword?

Bad RNG, happens sometimes.

Just a heads up, that there's no "regular" straight-sword version of any of the Black Knight weapons, in case that's what you were expecting.
Only a Greatsword (Black Knight Sword) and Ultra Greatsword (Black Knight Greatsword). It can be a little bit confusing, because the former looks like a straight-sword if used by the enemy. But then again, they're also bigger than the player.

For the third time I say, you got unlucky.

Thank you guys, then lets go on !

Okay..

No, not bad luck, bad translation....
The standard Black Knight Sword is "Schwarzritter-GROßschwert" (GREAT-Sword)
The "Real" Greatsword is translated as "Schwert des Drachentöters" or smth, (Dragonslayer Sword)

Just changed ingamelanguage to english to check this... Thank you anyway for your answers and hopefully not as many other german players waste their time cause of this ♥♥♥♥ (yes im am mad)

Who in their right mind would name Black Knight Greatsword into "Dragonslayer's Sword"?

The german translations of soulsgames always feel a bit off. Like google translate on a good day. BB in german is pretty good, though.

[Crowley42]

Any translation of souls games is usually ranging from god awful to amazing cause they people of varying skill, even in english. This is why almost all the in-game dialogue is like poetry but when you actually start reading item descriptions you're just thinking "well that's an awkward sentence/word".

[Crowley42]

But still, Dragonslayer Sword is very far off

Years ago I farmed pure bladestone for 3 days straight. I honestly had stopped believing that it existed at all, but it eventually dropped.
