Your favorite dark souls 3 weapon so far? Curious to see what people are lovin' in this game.

Read title above. Mine is black knight greataxe. The moveset is fun and it looks great with a lot of armour sets. Try using brass armour with it. The runic ♥♥♥♥ on the side of the axe compliments the armour really well.


After watching everyone's opinions. Especially so many people talking about claymore. I've really wanted to try and go back to my old DS2 pvp build with a bastard sword and a mace. Used to be so fun. Also wondered if anyone would like to add for some pvp sometime?

Crow Talons: ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA-

Wolf Knight GREATsword: the only sword that lets you kill someone with a frontflip

Friede's Great Scythe(s): Farming tools have never been better

Astora's Greatsword: who DOSEN'T like a useful weapon art in comparison to a sluggish one?

Farron Greatsword: hew, watch while i block with my Curse Ward Greatshield and then suddenly parry you!

Kick's Freides ass too on wakeup. Lmao. Poor thing can't handle the stunlock and the bleed is nice too when Hollowed on a Luck build.

Heyzel pick, Pontiff curved sword, Millwood battle axe, Onyx blade, Lothric straight sword (works well with leo ring), Crescent moon sword, Corvian Greatscythe and Gru spear.

But the overall favorite has to be Corvian Greatscythe. Especially now that it has hyperarmor on the WA.

[Artek [General]]

Split between Farron GS, Moonlight GS, Drakeblood GS, Storm Curved Sword and Lothric Straight sword.

Farron GS: awesome feeling of special attacks and uniquness.
Cons: heavy quality weapon, 40/40 is a must, but its an UGS, so 40 endurance is a must have and heavy poise is also required to protect hyperarmor. Also playing without blocking is hard.

MLGS: stylish, powerful, ranged bursts useful in PvE, weapon art feels like shoting with a shotgun.
Cons: magic damage that is useless against certain PvE enemies, abusing bursts quickly breaks the weapon, both bursts and WA are useless in PvP because they are easy to dodge.

Drakeblood GS: awesome design that is realistic and practical for once.
Cons: buffing is a must-do requirement to be PvP viable, shortest range among Greatswords, 2h r2 are side-sweeps for some reason, even though the sword is perfect for thrusting.
Could easily be a straight sword instead. Wasted potential.

Storm Curved Sword: awesome design, funny wa, dragon-related (made out of soul of one), high reach.
Cons: WA is useless and has little practical purpose, ♥♥♥♥ damage of 375 with 40/40 2h even though its literally the heaviest curved sword (5kg). Why must you torture me so, Frommy?

Lothric Straight Sword: best straight sword in my book. Awesome design, high reach, full set of R2 thrusts.
Cons: its a generic straight sword, also as all Lothric items it looks rusted and way too old for some reasons. Cleaner version is required.

Honorable mentions: Lothric UGS, Astora UGS, Black Knight weapons, Gotthards' Twins.

Conslusion: no perfect weapon in this game for me. Not now at least.
Hoping that next DLC will bring something worthy of a dragon knight.

Onyx blade and Man Serpant Hatchet and Demon Great Axe

[Arek the Dragon]

Morion Blade. Looks great, has Stance as weapon art and a bleed effect. Low health damage increase is also a nice thing. And it is a reference to Demon's Souls which is still my favorite game in the series.

[Jamchow]

Dark Sword. I can't even get hate for this since it's so easy to counter.

[Lindgnitazhe]

I would say that it would be these three. FUGS with 66 str and over 20 poise for late game and meta pvp. Good mixups, can be buffed, not as op as Profaned or BKGS, and also has really good WA which is stomp with a really powerful block. Also O&U with proper build feels super fun and rewarding to play, although insanely overpowered since landing L2 is basically equivalent of dealing over 1k damage. Last but not least, Valorheart is basically my personal favorite, since u can basically counter anything in the game except for super poise monsters and super stamina drain weapons like greatclub. Also looks very good with Faraam helm, Alva body, Slave Knight boots, and Follower gloves, and works especially well if u have some healing miracles.

Valorheart is very easy to counter with any weapon. I've matched with a lot of people using it, and I myself tried it too sparring with my friend. I found it awful, not only for myself, but either noone can play with it, or my general playstyle counters the weapon. It looks very good, but it's so easy to be countered when using it.

IIrythil Straight Sword. Frostbiting noobs in PvP and watching them panic/disconnect is glorious
