It's not that different from the sorcerer's weapons you asked about. Any of the low requirement, high base damage weapons can be hexer weapons if you infuse them with fire or dark. Or lightning. Or magic. It doesn't matter that much, just infuse with an element.

Hexers have two additional options that come to mind. The fume sword requires 22 dex. It's a long, dex scaling straight sword. Take min dex and infuse or take 40 dex and leave it as is.

There is also the silverback spear. Same 2 paradigms apply: take min dex for it and infuse or take 40 dex and leave it uninfused.

You could also use the grape popsicle, but it takes a lot of str and it's a slow lumbering thing.

Crypt Greatsword, infuse it with dark, here you go, you have a massive weapon that's one of the best for the game itself. ( Pretty much sucks ass in pvp tbh )

Yeah, crypt is better raw for most hexers. Unless you have like 50+ in both int and faith.

Also it's slow af, heavy af, and I question the moveset. I'd take a fire longsword over it, tbh.
Silverblack spear, dark ice rapier, dark longsword, dark manikin sabre, dark redrust scimitar, dark lost sinner's sword, dark heide lance (it infuses well with dark even tho it has a lightning damage type).

Raw? It stacks with dark infusion and dark weapon?

Seems so. I tried both with and without, only about a 150 point difference.

I got 1300 damage with 30 str 30/30 fth and int backstab. 300 damage with one hand but I suffered a slightly penalty, and 600 with two hands.

You can't stack infusions... the name of the weapons however is Crypt BLACKsword by default so I guess depending on your language it can be misleading... it's kinda like a Dark-infused Dark Sword in DaS3, just not as dumb.
30/30 should already be enough to make Dark better than Raw/uninfused though...

Anyway, what I actually meant was what rawrk pointed out.
On top it doesn't deal Strike-damage which makes it already a tier lower than the Sacred Chime Hammer which I'd pick all day over the Blacksword.

You can't buff it what makes it potentally worse than the other CGSs. It has also very high requirements. It's no weapon for casters at all.

No it's not, you need 50/50 to make it remotely worth it. And one shouldn't go 50/50 in the first place. Physical damage is always better than elemental (excpet for when fighting against shields).

Different weapon classes. Longsword is a meta weapon and should be used against other meta weapons (rapiers , straightswords, katanas, curved swords, spears, lances , axes, daggers).
Crypt BS is a trash-tier weapon and should be used against other garbage weapons (ultras, reapers).
