Moonveil gets insane stagger potential. And with how cheesy it is against npc invaders and certain enemies I can understand why it got so far.
Honestly underrated 2k damage to
Just finished a SnF sword playthrough, and I have to say: it completely shook me to my core. The weapon, although having a high skill ceiling, is incredibly powerful. No joke I killed (real) Mogh and Radagon in like 20 seconds . With the right build, the azure comet aow was doing upwards of 6k damage a pop. On the other hand, the flame aow will always hit malenia and deal 3.5k damage; if you play the fight safe at mid range waiting for her to chill out, it literally becomes a joke of a fight.
I don’t understand why people pick the Black Knife over the Glintstone Kris. I mean sure the Black Knife looks cooler and all, but the Kris is unquestionably the most powerful of all the daggers. With the right build, you can easily pop 3K damage in one shot of the AoW.
People will naturally be biased to what looks cooler/is more popular. That's just how it is.
I have a natural disdain for anything soul, crystal, or glint.
Even though they’re mostly in the same area, I think more people found the black knife. Also I guess any build can use it to pop 10% off a boss, where the Kris requires an INT build. In any case, this is just reasons why I think more people used the black knife, but the Kris is definitely waaay better.
Yeah with the right build.
There is only one dagger, ney only one weapon that you can pick up, not upgrade it at all, not level up at all and beat half the game while having only average skill. And that is Reduvia. After the last changes where they added damage on the blade during the ash it just melts everything. You can comfortably clear altas and the capital all the way to the top of the tree, the snake boy in volcano manor, the underground areas and most of the rot hell except the gargoyle at the end before you even start worrying about your build. The black knife winning over reduvia is insane. People even talking about the Glinstone kris is beyond insane, that dagger is not even top 5.
The vast majority of players have actually used very few of the weapons.
There was no usage or competency requirement for voting in this poll
One thing that I think will always paint these kinds of polls is; people who used these weapons on a first playthrough or while using one of the early “get OP” builds.
There are tons of ways to break ER: and a lot of people got through the launch period using one form or the another. But patches and testing are too scientific of a way to gauge how the community feels about weapons lol
The community likes pressing l2 lol
@@user-jr3zr2mp9c L2 really had a glow up from DkS3 to ER lol
@@pockystyx4087 yeah it was useless lol, im glad its useful now, its just that it overtook all the other moves
@@user-jr3zr2mp9c I'd need a happy medium for sure lol
Peoole seem to flock towards the more flashy weapons that gave a unique effect as opposed to just good stats. That explains why the Black Knife won so handly. The Kris is also just not a popular weapon and I assumed it was another throwaway dagger when I voted.
True. Also the picks put in the polls don't even cover all the weapons so good stats, basic weapons get left behind. The broadsword has the best scaling by a mile from all straight swords but its not even in the polls.
The people like l2 sticks
For me a good secondary effect will make me put a weapon higher, this is why I picked the Black Knife, the added utility sets it apart from the other daggers.
I can just slap Glintstone Pebble onto a dagger for something similar to the Glintstone Kris, however I can't say the same about the Black Knife.
@@AceAviations2 you're missing a lot if you just put glinstone pebble on a dagger
Very fun ranking the weapons. Really enjoyed your input on the outcomes, keep up the great videos.
We Stan ghizas wheel
I'd say the great stars is better than the long horn because of how versatile it is, it's solid damage, it's good range, health regen and bleed, whereas the long horn only excels at shredding large targets
Rivers of blood never should have been nerfed for pve, there was no reason for it. You couldn’t get it until late game and you don’t have to use it unless you want to, now the only reason to use it over the nagakiba is if you like how it looks and don’t care if it drastically underperforms compared to it. Before they were probably more comparable with damage, with the nahakiba having permanent great range and rob having the ability to get even better range on it ash only and normal katana range on its regular attacks. That feels like more of a play style decision than what we have now.
"Stormhawk Axe is not the best axe because Stormcaller ash of war on something like bleed greatsword does more damage"
My point was that that weapon in particular doesn’t have much of a use because it’s outclassed by something else. So it’s going to be less useful in my eyes. I compared it to larger weapons because stormcaller best pairs with those
@@youwy I get what you mean it feels underwhelming at first glance, however its the strongest weapon in the game for lvl 1 characters, one of the very best weapons in pvp, top 3/4 weapon for speedrunning (bhf,serpent,iron balls) and it makes something like warped axe with stormcaller look like a toy in comparison 😋
Ya this didnt really make any sense. I agree that warped axe is better imo but what a weird criticism
@@Worsteverseen
*Doesn't trigger kindred of rot, mushroom crown, lord of blood's exhalation or white mask
*No source of percentage damage
*Doesn't have the highest r1, charged r2, l1 or jumping l1 DPS
*Not the highest ash of war spam DPS either
*Neither the fastest stance breaker nor the safest
*Uninfusable quality scaling
*Short range
Obviously the best RL1 weapon./s
It's not all bad though, and because of its accessibility it makes a good speedrun choice as you mentioned.
i started this game using katanas with bleed (still fun for me), but when i discovered the great moon sword... damn boy. its AMAZING, dont care if its op, for me the effect, the beam, the design, even the secondary mission to get it, its flawless. ( i never tried the rykards sword, but this poll makes me wanna try it)
It's not even that good, average in pve and will only hit a blind person in pvp.
@@JohnDoe-pu5gk If that is average then what is good... that thing staggers bosses with a projectiles in like 3 hits
@@JohnDoe-pu5gk☝🤓
blasphemous blade is absolutely busted
@@JohnDoe-pu5gkyou must not pvp very often
Golem's Halberd anf Axe of Godfrey are slept on
The Sword of Night and Flame is a powerhouse of a weapon, in my most recent playthrough, a sorcerer who just meets the Faith requirement, the thing is a beast, while the Flame part is undoubtedly weaker than it could be, it still hits very hard, and the beam, I've done over 2k damage with that thing.
Its my pick for overall best Strait Sword in a FromSoftware game, surpassing the Ringed Knight Strait Seord from DS3.
The Grave Scythe is the best weapon, it's a beast in both pve and pvp and it looks cool af similar to how the Scythe in Bloodborne is.
You should rank the build types next. Updated for 1.09 of course
I love the pickaxe, it has great damage output and has a scaling in pure strength I powerstance it with, another pickaxe but I should probably use the rusted anchor aswell
The best curved greatsword is the magma wyrm scalesword. It has the highest dmg, the second most range, uses fire meaning it has the most buffable dmg type and also has a crazy dmg aow.
It is also not buffable by oils or spells unlike bloodhound and has the most boring and slow ash of them all. Also it looks like a shriveled old chicken wing left outside in the sun for a month. ;)
@@AlexanderVRadev the guts greatsword itself has less dmg at max stats with a flame art infusion. Use all the weapon grease and spells u want lad ur dmg will remain lower than the scalesword. It is ugly tho I’ll give you that😂
@@RiziRama Flame art infusion? LMAO.
@@AlexanderVRadev just tested it with weapon grease and spells, bloodhounds fang has about 250 less dmg than the scalesword when fully buffed.
The dismounter has better scaling and its buffable while actually being the longest
Might be because community also consider pvp aspect too, Knight greatsword is really great for pvp combat, ordovis is more for reaction swap to catch another player off guard with its aow
If that was really the case the Death poker wouldn t have won so much Against the claymore. It was like 76% Vs 13 % wich is totally unreasonable if you consider pvp
SOTNAF is insane damage by fire, shield/stance comet-broker and easy access in early game (+5 or +6).
I just like nagakiba. Everyone likes their own weapons, nagakiba for me is just very flexible for a lot of builds. Tho i don't use it a lot thats what i choose. Objectively another would probably be better but i wouldn't know cuz i haven't tried it. Same goes for a lot of people who chose other weapons over what is objectively the best.
It's funny that people rank weapons for the pve, imo. You can make almost everything work against mobs and boss enemies.
So this looks to me like a tier list of weapons that require the minimum amount of effort.
Edit: and there are many faults here... e.g. bandits is the cs with the most range, it may be longer by it's pure physical appearance but the shamshir hits actually wider because of the better/unique moveset...
Just realised the wing of astel looks like serpicos blade from berserk
I don't know why there is a poll for people’s opinions when numbers prove which "weapon" is best.
Also if a person has "biases", why are you dumping on them when you ask for their opinion?
A strength build will disagree with intelligent build choices on principle. One is ranged and the other is melee... a different comfort level.
A dead corpse is not effective and looking cool while dead is irrelevant. 😢
Bolt of gransax vs blasphemous blade for ranged aow spam
seeing the royal greatsword get knocked out immediately after finishing a run where I ripped through the game with it... that shit hurts...
My ranking would be:
1) Darkmoon great sword
2) Blasphemous Blade
3) death's poker
4) mohgwyn spear
5) bolt of gransax
6) Bloodhound's fang
7) Nagakiba
Ngl Ordovis’s great sword top five weapon it does like 5k for 15 Fp
I'd like to see a pvp version!
surprised how little beastman curve sword was voted
Can you do a unique ash of war tier list?
EDIT: These decisions were also made based on PvE as I don't do PvP... so take that as you will.
Beastman's Curved sword I feel is the "best", but I was judging it based on a Str/Arc bleed build. It out performs even the Bandits and Scavenger curved swords on a Dex/Arc bleed build.
As for the SoNaF, I voted for that because I'm currently on a Int-Fai build and that weapon freakin ROCKS. Yeah... the ash of war isn't exactly fast (nor is it "expensive" as you claim it to be, sir :P It's not CHEAP but it's not that bad either, and if you're running it right you should also have ways of restoring your FP just fine... FP > HP flasks, Assassin Cerulean Dagger talisman / or Carian Filigreed Crest, etc), but it can really put the hurt on most enemies. You've got physical, magic, and fire options along with the necessary sorceries and-or incantations to help stagger enemies and then blast 'em! Giving you plenty of time to use your ash of war.
Beastman’s do not outperform Scavenger’s or Bandit’s and multiple people have proved it
@@broccolin Just ran the calculators using 80Str 80Dex and 80Arc for all 3 (to get equal comparisons) and we're both only half right. Turns out Bandit's Curved swords have the highest AR in both Blood and Occult category, then the Beastman's, then the Scavenger's. Interesting.
EDIT: Exact numbers (in same order mentioned above), and this was using multiple calculators to make sure the numbers were same / updated / etc:
BLOOD: 653 / 632 / 611
OCCULT: 655 / 626 / 611
@@lordvalinar774 👍
As far as whips, urumi lost because nobody uses whips lol. Id bet most ppl who voted never used them beyond maybe playing around when you first get a new weapon
you forgot one thing about stormhawk axe it has higher stagger than normal stormcaller so it's more consistently strong for most enemies, and in pvp it's unfair honestly
are you sure it has higher stagger? I've used builds with a scythe or greataxe that have stormcaller and I have noticed it works better than the stormhawk axe in both pvp and pve. Do you know the specific poise value? because I can't seem to find it
@@youwy Full WA does 80 poise damage and its the highest poise dmg per second weapon in ER if im not mistaken
@@youwy im pretty sure stormcaller uses the weapons base poise damage value while thunderstorm has the same poise damage as storm stomp, it’s pretty close but remember you can roll out of stormcaller but because of the little bit more stagger that thunderstorm does it can true combo
Can you please make a PVP version of this?
Sword of night an d flame is not int fai if you spec into one it is a lot better
I’m in the middle part of the game and been struggling thru rob and Margot’s can someone give me some advise?
I can try. What platform do you play on bud?
@@timtanner9469 it’s Ok i used morghs spear and finished the game but thanks tho
@@sgaksbcdjsnaammaj oh awesome congrats. Yea that spear is really strong. Did you beat malenia tho
@@timtanner9469 yeah I’m going on my 2nd journey now
Vykes works great in PVE. Act like the madness doesnt exists and you have a really strong fire weapon. Silurias Tree is a better bossing weapon but Vykes is a better mobbing weapon
bro im in your stream right now
Bro
Ez pvp build
Nagakiba with spinning slash
Straight up busted
I think a lot of these weapons depends on how you play.
Because i feel like the darknoon great sword is over rated. The heavy attacks are great, it is a good weapon. But i dont get the same thing everyone else does apparently. I play much better withother great swords
I mean yeah weapons will naturally feel better for some people but certain weapons like Darkmoon GS are objectively better than other weapons. Charged heavies benefit from multiple Talismans to stack huge damage, hit twice due to having both a physical and projectile attack, do high poise damage, and apply the strongest status in the game. The nature of the skill allows you to easily stack it with Jellyfish shield and combo it with other sorceries.
I reccomend watching GinoMachino's no hit run with it, really shows how busted it can be in good hands
My opinion nothing comes close to the Nagakiba
Darkmoon Greatsword is better than Blasphemous blade. More damage and frost build up.
I understood this is Clearly only pve when i saw Death poker > claymore... And everything afterwards made sense
Fr, all l2 sticks lol
Hammers better be S tier. Or my wife’s boyfriend will make me sleep on the couch again.
Gargoyles twinblade is the best
I love it when streamers say "Idc about your opinions in my tier list, iT's mY tIErliSt" or the classic "iT's oNLy mY oPInIOn", like petty bitches. But trashing his communities tastes and calling people lowkey idiots is okey. This guy is not the only one believe me but I loathe hypocrism
The Bastards Stars version of Nebula is in my opinion much better than the wing for everything but speed and cost, you have more aoe so better crowd control and you swing the flail itself doing more damage, plus it also moves you which could help in certain situations. although it costs 5 more fp but that's fair.
Your not wrong Bastards is S-tier . Stars has higher AR and better scaling in Int compared to WoA.
I 100% agree. Bastards Stars has incredible utility because of the differences in aow from the wing. the enemy ai doesn't expect the rush in, and it never acts to avoid the delayed cloud damage, which often interrupts them just enough for you to use the ash of war again.
"Best" and "worst" are opinions dude. U should know this. There aren't exceptions. Taste is completely subjective.
Whips are best weapons in the game, it’s crazy you always pretend like they aren’t
Cool
RoB has been mid for a while. Nagakiba with spinning slash is terrifying
Its all wrong because the best weapon in every category is the Cinquedea.
I love how u let everyone know if the lists are "correct" or not lolllll. None of us are special bruh.
Mohgs spear is the best to me after seeing what it made me do to Malenia, poor little girl.
heavy epee beats helice
*promosm*
I'm only here for pvp content. I guess I'll wait
Im cuuuuuummmmmiinnnngggg! Oh lord Im about to bust!
Rivers of blood is definitely better than nagakiba. Bleed is just broken no matter how you look at it. Its still cheese and even if it way weaker its just always going to be good
Nagakiba can do more bleed than Rivers of Blood and can have basically the same ash of war
You should do more testing before getting such a fat head about things. At least with daggers glintstone doesn’t even come in 3rd. The crystal knife does the most theoretical dmg, the most for around 70 points to spend is erdsteel and is only barely beaten by a crystal knife with 99 int and dex while the glintstone sits middle of the pack when building completely around it.
Erdsteel dagger and it’s unique double dipping into faith scaling when sacred or flame is head and shoulders the king of daggers post power stancing and status build up changes. Hope I see a video exploring it as a build seeing as the RUclips community seems to have overlooked this weapon.
My brother in christ, healing is what the flask is for. If you want more healing, i will recommend hand of malenia with godskin swaddling cloth and crimson seed talisman.
What is this comment in response to?
@@youwy Blasphemous Blade winning
BB is easier to get, does fire damage(easy to buff)has good scalling and an op aow +looks cooler(in m'y opinion)
Dude this community is lame as hell and don't think for themselves, at least the majority as proven here. It hurts to say because i love these games
Yknow its a poll. Its not like the community is 1 person
You mean the elden ring community sucks, I agree.
Ehh it's pretty normal in almost any community that the more flashy/popular option is going to have an advantage. Not specific to ER community at all
Imagine choosing the BHF over the dismounter, Blasphemous blade over Knights GS, malikeths blade over the Zwei, RoB over the Naga
They're all l2 sticks lmao
I Mean l2 is fun to press
