@trolololtrololol-v2w Depends on the buff tho, some are annoying to reaply (most of the defensive buffs) while others are quick and snappy, like Flame Grant Me Strenght
The fire knight greatsword has the undeniable best moveset out of all the colossal swords. It combines two unique moves from preexisting colossal swords, those of which bring the super fast R1 combo from the godslayer greatsword and the poking R2 from the zweihander. Combine this with arguably the best damage output of any colossal sword when going all out in fire damage and faith scaling, because it has a passive effect that improves fire damage. The godslayer and mainly the zwei were my favorite weapons in Elden ring, but now it’s undoubtedly the fire knights greatsword
I need this comment on my short cause it’s so annoying seeing people go “it’s not rare” or “it’s not even hard to get drop” it took me 11 minutes of farming to get it some people bother me with that stuff 😂😂😂 but I feel your pain my brother
Yeah good honorable mention I should have done some because I like it but in my opinion I like the ones I had on this list better, but thanks for watching ❤
Claws of night is a double barrel shotgun that is the best dragon killer in the game imo. And who should care about anything else but dragons and bosses?
Best fire knight greatsword farm i found is from the Storehouse Loft site of grace, drop down the ledge by the lift straight ahead. Go down the stairs and boom, fire knight has his back turned giving you a free shot. Also the Greatsword of Solitude has very high guard damage negation, making it a super fun guard counter weapon. That, paired with its Ash makes it allot of fun to run.
Personally fell in love with the backhand blades, the charged attack gets this really nice lunge to close distance and both ashes of war you can use on them are really strong, also you can infuse them which is even more nuts
@@Prez54 I think the falx is really cool but I think that them being somber weapons and unable to get ash infusion brings them down a bit in my opinion, I ran cold backblades and they stuck, plus blind spot and swift slash are dope ashes Blind spot can slip under attacks and past guards and swift slash is straight up a vergil move its so sick Lastly, you can get backhand blades right at the start of the dlc while you need to finish Hornsent’s quest or kill him to get the flax
Blood fiends arm 1. Barbed Staff Spear on a defensive faith build is strong. Bleed procs with its AoW, and the AoW isn't terribly intensive to fire off.
I got the fire knights greatsword on the first fire knight that i came across, i wasnt expecting it to drop from literally the first fire knight i kill
Falx can be obtained right when you get into Shadow Keep. Just assist Leda with her summons. Fire Knight Shortswords both with flame skewer on a flame build is literally nuts. Can do buffs and super cheese any boss in the game.
Messmer's soldier spear with Spectral Lance and Heavy infusion was insanely nice. Could basically stagger nearly every enemy I faced, either from distance or up close.
Great video. Thanks. Fully agree. Did not know lizard sword had that skill. Trying to decide what to use my Ancient Sombers and Ancient Dragons on from the DLC. I really liked the Ancient Meteoric Greatsword too and had much success with it. Backhand blades are very cool too. Bloodfiends Arm also a favorite. Fire knights greatsword also a Favorite. Greatsword of Radahn - Lord I just got and look forward to using in PVP. My favs from base game are Ruins greatsword, SacredRelic, Maliketh, Bolt of Gransax and are all maxed out. So many awesome katanas hard to decide on just one.
Dane's Footwork is better than I expected it would be. Dryleaf Whirlwind for the ash of war does some crazy damage and stagger, and throwing blood infusement can build up hemorrhage quite fast due to how rapid the strikes are. Obviously the downside is the range of it, but still, a very fun and surprisingly strong weapon.
I got the long axe and the twin axes, they are definitely awesome but i need to try them out more! Those death knights are one of my favorite bosses in the DLC so far! I obliterated tf outta them with the sunflower ash of war, it just stomps them into the ground if your able to tank a couple hits😂
Use the castle main gate bonfire and go down the elevator and fight the messemer soldier. Was able to get the greatsword after 6 runs with the silver scarab!
Renalla's swords are op af. It's the sword of night and flame, but dual wielded and the ash of war is long range for the magic, aoe for the flames. Definitely worth checking out.
I haven’t gotten to fight radahn yet since I’ve been making videos fighting him has completely slipped my mind 😂 thank you for reminding me of the final boss in the game I somehow forgot about
Milady not even top 10? Doesn't do much damage compared to these, but IT IS SOOOOOO FUN TO USE. Combo System, good flow, feels good. It's a huge enhancement to the game for me. The Multi hits/combo, is a breath of fresh air for me outside of Dodge and one attack and repeat. It's at least a High A tier if these were all S. imo
Damn is it crazy i got the lizard greatsword and fire knights great sword from the 1st enemies i killed with em lol no farming necessary only had 30 arcane at the time
This is how you make a list. I hate when top weapon lists include applying insane buffs. As if I’m going to buff my weapon every 30 seconds
Only gotta buff once if the fight is less than 30 seconds
I mean buffing is the correct play style for bosses.
like please stop being proud of limiting yourselves
@@trolololtrololol-v2wi hate it. Fuck buffing constantly let me play the fuckin game
@trolololtrololol-v2w Depends on the buff tho, some are annoying to reaply (most of the defensive buffs) while others are quick and snappy, like Flame Grant Me Strenght
The destiny music made me feel so nostalgic
Glad I can always bring the nostalgica with the destiny theme

I killed that fire knight 72 times (80 arcane + silver scarab) - he dropped his whole set + the sword on the last, 72th try.
I need this comment on my short cause it’s so annoying seeing people go “it’s not rare” or “it’s not even hard to get drop” it took me 11 minutes of farming to get it some people bother me with that stuff 😂😂😂 but I feel your pain my brother
Oh man that sucks! Your gonna hate me but I got the helmet and greatsword my first time I killed him with 10 arcane lol
I need to go check… I looted two items off him on first kill but idk if it was the sword… 🙏
Damn only took me like 6 tries.
Luckily it wasn't the 73st try
Honorable mention for Claws of Night.
Yeah good honorable mention I should have done some because I like it but in my opinion I like the ones I had on this list better, but thanks for watching ❤
Claws of night is a double barrel shotgun that is the best dragon killer in the game imo. And who should care about anything else but dragons and bosses?
Yes!!!
Claws of night is amazing im having so much fun with it
Ironically probably the claws that rack up the least amount of damage in the game lol.

That one drops the shortsword not the greatsword
I’m playing through with a Smithscript Greathammer Thor build. So far it’s been a lot of fun chucking my hammer across a surprisingly long distance.
Hahaha no way I tried to make a build for it but I didn’t like it so much are you using anything crazy in yours
Personally fell in love with the backhand blades, the charged attack gets this really nice lunge to close distance and both ashes of war you can use on them are really strong, also you can infuse them which is even more nuts
Another weapon I feel like I need to go back and look at I tried them and ultimately like the flax better but the back hand blades are so sick😂
@@Prez54 I think the falx is really cool but I think that them being somber weapons and unable to get ash infusion brings them down a bit in my opinion, I ran cold backblades and they stuck, plus blind spot and swift slash are dope ashes

Lastly, you can get backhand blades right at the start of the dlc while you need to finish Hornsent’s quest or kill him to get the flax
Blood fiends arm 1.
Barbed Staff Spear on a defensive faith build is strong. Bleed procs with its AoW, and the AoW isn't terribly intensive to fire off.
"the flax" 😂
Glad to see someone else using the Rakshasa/Pelt of Ralva set, looking like a barbarian warlord
The destiny ost reminds of sitting in a raid for hours with friends just to get nothing. I miss those times
I got the fire knights greatsword on the first fire knight that i came across, i wasnt expecting it to drop from literally the first fire knight i kill
1.
I’ve kind of been digging the colossal weapon you get from the mother of fingers rememberance.
But the starlight is pretty great.
Appreciate the support I still haven’t fought that boss yet I need to get to that!
@@Prez54I've been using her staff on my INT+FAI build,I'm loving it so far
I did the DLC with the Messmer Soldier's Spear. I love this weapon.
It’s so fun and versatile

Blood backhand blade is great too. Double yield it and it will melt any enemies instantly. Not to mention its awesome aow. Best evade/counter aow imo
1. I have a crucible knight build that erases bosses, devonias hammer has been a great addition to this build.
OMG IS THAT PREZ54...HE HELPED ME BEAT ALL THE BOSSES IN 30MIN
Dryleaf arts is OP if you have the right build
Nice content, no BS. Appreciate it.

I use Danes and Dryleaf with heavy armor to compensate for the lack of range
Lessgooo. Someone actually mentioned it
1 and undecided on best weapon lot really fun!
Sword Lance is most underrated weapon out there.
No matter what infusion this sh*t hits like a truck.
That destiny music... It's giving me tower vibes
Flame faith build with dry leaf arts palm fist. Crazy range with buffs 1-4shot bosses
1- Death Knight's Longhaft axe. My build is based on lightning damage so this was a great addition.
No way do I need to go back and try this again because I haven’t used it much, also thanks for watching all the way I appreciate it ❤❤
Yeah the blink is so useful for staying close to bosses
@@hussle2654 I’m gonna try it again over the weekend for sure then thanks for the recommendation
I got the long axe and the twin axes, they are definitely awesome but i need to try them out more! Those death knights are one of my favorite bosses in the DLC so far! I obliterated tf outta them with the sunflower ash of war, it just stomps them into the ground if your able to tank a couple hits😂
Same, im walking through the dlc with this weapon/lightning build
1. Smith script great hammer is most fun for sure
Spear of the impaler is my fav to use.
Use the castle main gate bonfire and go down the elevator and fight the messemer soldier. Was able to get the greatsword after 6 runs with the silver scarab!
Great vid.
Got that Fire Knight Greatsword on the first farm attempt 🍀🙏
1- 100% the martial arts weapons they are so cool
They are so cool they saw the mods people made and had to ass them 😂
The only thing i can seem to use to counter the flax swords are with palm blast in pvp if i time it right, those swords shred shit up in pvp
Renalla's swords are op af. It's the sword of night and flame, but dual wielded and the ash of war is long range for the magic, aoe for the flames. Definitely worth checking out.
Does no damage
@@goldehammergaming lol. I melted half the DLC with that weapon at NG+5. Sounds like you might just suck.
@@chriswilliamson4516 I mean it objectively just does less damage than majority of options. Congrats I guess?
They're my favorite. I also use Milady with a cold infusion or whatever you call it.
@@goldehammergamingskill issue
1. I love the twinblades the most
Great list...thank you....The bleed build you had for the lizard, do you have a vid for that?
I think the back hand blades are cool
5:35 :D nice vid
Backhand blade, man. That's the best, thanks to the ash of war
I haven't got it all yet, but I'm currently rocking the great katana, milady and messmer's spear.
Lol @ playing straight up. I do use incantations on my uchi, but I use my uchi because unlike a lot of people I like to play the game straight up ;)

Havent played far yet. Looking for the best dlc weapon to use with the dragon build you made.
What a coincidence right before you said the lizard Greatsword I killed my first of the enemies and got it 😂😂
Damn I have pretty much everything on this list and have only tried like three of them, now I got to go back and respec 😂
Yeah definitely try some bro I want to make a full build for the lizard great sword it’s so cool 😂
came for elden ring, stayed for destiny 1 orbit music
Hi prez if you havent had a chance please make a vid on radahns lord weapon. Its weapon artis absolutely insane especially in pvp

@@Prez54 damn thank you for sacrificing your enjoyment in order to give us amazing content. You're a legend

Any of those top 10 do stronger than the Dark Moon Greatsword?
Shout out to the bolt of grandsax, it’s basically the intervention from mw2
I know it’s not DLC weapon before any of you guys jump my ass over that statement
@@trashman1969 *put away knife* i see...
flax? castle enesis? dyslexia claims another soul..
What was that ability you used with the lizard sword
L2. You have to change it to cold, fire etc. If I understood your question.
It’s called the poison flowers bloom twice
1... fire knights greatsword is my personal favorite. And you better not flick my mom like that.
Idk if I’m just lucky or not but it took me less than 10 tries to get the Fire Knights sword
I got 2 Fire Knight's Greatswords in 9 kills. I should go buy a lotto ticket.
Is sword of night good?
Ima replace my moonveil for starlined
What NG was the footage taken from?
Dry leaves arts and Mesmer spear
Foulx swords, 1. I like beast claws.
1 please dont flick my mum like that
HAHAHAHHAHAA much love man ❤
1. I think spinning weapon great katana is dope. And please don’t do that to my mom she’s a nice lady 😢
Any option for a pure strength build for my 2nd playthrough?
My fav dlc weapon is allso the new Rahsaan sword not light
Had the fire knight sword drop first try lol
Never let bro cook

1 backhand blades
Beast claws!!!!
Says he doesn't use buffs, has golden vow and flame grant me strength equipped.
he means weapon buffs i think?
How do you get bear armor
5:35 💀
Max level and ng +0. Spit.
Bloodfiends fork is bettee

So I see you play with no buffs. Do you also play with a DDR pad, blindfolded, while getting your balls stomped on? Dude you are so cool, prez.
Oh you meant the F-A-L-X

Why does this guy think heavy affinity staggers more than blood affinity? DO NOT listen to him on that, always go blood.
