Demon’s Scar

It’s too bad that players can’t get the Demon’s Scar until The Ringed City DLC because they would have liked to use it earlier in Dark Souls 3. This weapon not only looks great, but it also does a lot of damage and is a lot of fun to use, as long as the player builds around Faith and Intelligence.

Astora Greatsword

The Astora Greatsword is a very light weapon that doesn’t take much to use. This makes it useful right away for many builds, but it works best with Dexterity builds. It’s also one of the best guns in Dark Souls 3 to use infusions on because it has such low requirements.

Exile Greatsword

Executioner’s Greatsword

This greatsword has a flat head, which shows that it only gives damage when it strikes. Most of the time, this type of physical damage is saved for hammers and other blunt weapons. However, this makes the Executioner’s Greatsword especially good against heavily armored enemies, who are usually weak to strike damage. It can’t be infused, but it can be improved to +10, at which point it does 262 physical damage and scales with strength like a B-tier item.

This weapon is definitely made for strength and dexterity builds. So the B-tier scaling with intelligence and faith from the dark infusion won’t help much. When the Dark Sword’s infusion is improved, it gains B-tier scaling in both strength and dexterity, giving it 198 physical damage.

Vordt’s Great Hammer

In the hands of a strength builder, Vordt’s Great Hammer is a tool of frozen death.

The Claymore

But the player needs to be able to dodge well because they can’t block.

If a player starts out as a Mercenary, these are the tools they start out with. If players choose a different class, they can get them in the swamp behind the Black Knight on the Road of Sacrifices, which is pretty early in Dark Souls 3.

Sharp-infused Sellsword Twinblades have a very high damage potential because they can deal 183 physical damage at +10 and can attack quickly. Normal and heavy strikes are quick, but its Spin Slash skill lets it land a lot of blows in a short amount of time, which most opponents can’t handle.
