Best early game Black Knight weapon?

[Abaddon]

I just made a twink that has full black knight armor and will use all 5 BK weapons, so I need to know what's the best BK weapon for the early stages of the game, which requires the smallest amount of stats and works well until I can get to endgame parts to farm twinkling titanites.

I was thinking about the lightest of the 4, but I'm probably going to regret it at some point.

Thoughts?

The only Black Knight weapon you can get early is the BKGS, in the Crucifiction Woods where you find the Farron Coal.

I love this weapon, looks nice, good damage, great moveset and devastating combo.

Update: It's either the BK sword or the glaive, as I expected I want to waste as few points in vitality early on as I can, and the other 2 weapons are too heavy for that purpose. I heard the glaive sucks in terms of raw damage, but I feel the moveset compensates more than enough for it.

@Mr. Kitty: It's a twink, it's already geared up.

weapon | Str | Dex | Weight | Damage at +5
halberd 28 18 9 270
sword 20 18 10 302
ultra 30 18 16 322
axe 36 18 19.5 350

weight, go halberd.. stats, go (great)sword.. damage, go axe

All black knight weapons are good at scaling, they are rrally good weapons for people who hates to buff the weapon every time enters ima combat( like me).

It's going to be the sword, which is actually a greatsword, has thurst attacks, the smallest requirements and only 1 more weight point than the glaive. The other 2 weapons are straight out of the deal, because I'd have to remove armor.

Cheers.

I'm using the greataxe at sl55 and I gotta say it slays! Using both hunter and knight rings to mitigate the heavy requirements.

depends where u wanna twink if you look at my profile page then you see the salt of a twink which is using blackkngith axe in cruxifictiowoods


like i am using it an dpeople are crying about it

so i would go with the glaive has a awesome moveset and its not stat heavy

Glaive is also the easiest to acquire early if you can kill the Dancer early game (Oceiros is easy, then you only need to reach Chundyr's room to get the glaive).

[Abaddon]

I decided to go for the sword for the PvE moveset. When I get to lothric castle I'll swap into a different weapon, and by the time I reach the dragon peak I'll have every single weapon ready to change.

sword is betterer

BKGS carried me through over half my first playthrough, it rocks!

Sword requires the least stat investment, but you don't get it until all the way in the Smoldering Lake.
So the next best would be the Greatsword.

Yeah, but they're some of the strongest weapons in the game.
They'll carry you the whole way no problem.
