These are labeled "good" because they are an alternative weapon that is worthy of being mentioned.īlack Knight Greataxe - The BKG is faster than normal greataxes. It has A scaling for strength (when upgraded), isn't too slow, and has a weight of 10. Man-Serpent Greatsword - A very popular choice of weapon! MSG is upgradeable to +15 and easy to get pretty early on in the game. Note that the crystal form is the strongest, but obviously has durability issues.ĭemon Great Machete - A good alternative to the DGA, the DGM hits for high damage as well, but lacks the S scaling. This weapon is very strong and very heavy. It will have S scaling for strength and an attack rating of over 650 depending on how much strength you have. Right? Right! Top Strength Weapons Dark Soulsĭemon's Great Axe - The DGA weapon has the MOST physical damage in the whole game after upgrading it to +15.

I'm going to use acronyms for a lot of these weapons since gamers LOVE acronyms.

However, it also goes without saying that the best divine weapon for a strength build / str build (since you will need one during one part of the game and MAYBE a boss fight if you wish) is still the best strength weapon - so what many people do is get 2 or more copies of their best / favorite weapon, and then make one version divine (To deal with regenerating skeletons). I only recommend turning them into CRYSTAL (if you don't mind durability issues) and then the normal upgrade paths. Note that you can make some of these into fire, lightning, divine, raw, occult, enchanted / magic, or chaos, but that hurts the scaling effects so don't use those embers on these weapons.
