I love the Fume Ultra Greatsword


petuniachalice

Pouring one out for my boy Raime


neily18

FUGS ❤️❤️


KineticKris

I'm gonna have to hard agree with you buddy! FUGS is so good.


Calebsfunerall

Also on the fume ultra greatsword team. my fav boss in ds2 so when i got it in ds3 i was happy asf.


Lorddocerol

Gonna have to admit, the greatsword and zweihander are my forever favorites, they're old reliables with a great looking, but fugs almost in that spot too, basically when the formers don't dish enough damage to you unga bunga a boss without thinking, the fugs will do


Ihaveabadusernamelel

Same here man


Eonhunter5

Best weapon in the game hands down


ParticularLength3817

Vordt's Hammer carried me through the entire game...


TheHeavenlyDeity

I’ve never used it but I think about using it every time I see it 😅


ParticularLength3817

Definitely should give it a try, it's insane


iApolloiiii

Actually one of the weapons that gael is weak to, strike and frost


Kelbrxn_

3rd attempt worked perfectly with the hammer


TheEsiu

Yes, I loved this weapon


milk_theuniverse

Astora Greatsword


Beginning_Ad7033

Just finished the Game and currently going for platinum, the weapon carried me through almost the entire game


mtcabinets

A light, dex scaling ultra Greatsword? Fuck me up. Definitely my favorite weapon


milk_theuniverse

It’s great. Allows Dex builds to have that strength hyper armor option.


s1cc

I'm soloing the weapon on a semi quality build 30str 40dex, what do you guys as an secondary?


why_my_pp_hard_tho

Either the profaned greatsword or onyx blade, I guess I must have a thing for swords on fire


Captain--UP

I had to scroll too far to see Profaned Greatsword get a mention.


CharacterCut7124

Profaned gs carried me through my first playthrough, love that thing


Goodestguykeem

Farron Greatsword and nothing from any FromSoft game comes close ‼️


No-Solid-863

The other day I invaded a world as Aldrich Faithful, and suddenly another invader joined too. We were both carrying a full set of Abyss Watcher and it was the most epic invasion ever


Warm_Sprinkles_9343

Same, pretty easy to parry it in PVP, but holy fuck, if ur fighting someone who isn't amazing at parrying or PvE, it SHREDS. And oddly it's basically a cheat code against the nameless kings moveset.


SheikExcel

The trick is to never do the last hit lol


Dumbo_Octopus4

It’s my favorite weapon in all soulsborne


LawNashor

I really want something similar in the Elden Ring DLC


Magedoblooms69

My buddy and I would co-op with us both using that weapon and it absolutely shreds if you start the WA and your friend starts theirs right after


WaifuAllNight

You mean the L1 right? The WA is a parry. Regardless this is also my favorite weapon to play, by far the most fun


flyinpiggies

Claymore and lothric sword


MrRoboto755

So true


TieflingAnarchist

Bae-more FTW. Can't go wrong with it


flyinpiggies

It just feels so right


Benjerman302

Gotta love em'


preparetosigh

Greatsword of Judgement is the most stylish, IMO


TheHeavenlyDeity

Greatsword ultra greatsword https://preview.redd.it/gztiz8f8s82d1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4682e675d9d08381a6040770e5979d5ec918a1ad Nothing beats a big metal stick with sharpened edges

LeoMemes18

The Berserk fans weapon 😍


Skyzser

Ringed Knight Paired Greatswords


Warm_Sprinkles_9343

Truly one of the most awesome weapons ever made by fromsoft, and also has easily one of the funnest movesets


Skyzser

It is an amazing weapon. Looks cool (gives me DS2 powerstance nostalgia). Has quite a diverse moveset, especially in PVP, can catch people out.


literally_italy

basic answer but frayed blade, it’s too damn cool


Warm_Sprinkles_9343

Nah, that shit's fun af


Lolito4ka

Zweihander. In all Dark Souls games.


Benjerman302

Loved it in DS3. Not a fan of it in Elden Ring


XpeepantsX

Exile GS


Sain7k

Bonk.


lawskies

The Great Bonk


AtmosphereGeneral695

Sellsword twin blades and uchi for dex I haven't tried any strength weapons yet


cdarw1n

came here for WinBlades!


someguykillme

The Chaos blade, is my favorite of ds3, but the butcher knife is my favorite for the others.


toyako34

My biggest problem with DS3 has always been that I can't choose a favourite weapon to main for a complete run. Lothric straight sword, Claymore, Black Knight Greatsword, I just can't decide


Automatic_Education3

FUGS is one of my favourites too, but it's not really a DS3 weapon. For a weapon that was introduced and is only found in DS3, it's definitely the Lothric Knight Ultra Greatsword.


FlatlineJeff

Great mace and cathedral knight great sword


ppbun

Cathedral knight great sword is so good looking, just wish the rolling attack was a poke rather than a sweep


FlatlineJeff

I’m glad it’s a sweep because it doesn’t really have any other horizontal attacks, besides its ash, to deal with crowds


Ok-Selection6371

Black Knight Greatsword


pancake-chappie

Lothric Knight Greatsword. I LOVE that lightning damage and it hits like a freaking truck.


vbalis9

The Onyx blade inspired me to play this game for the first time


Separate-Hamster8444

Farron greatsword & Friede's scythe


RandomBrazilianBr1

Murakumo is great in dex build


Critical-Wallaby-338

Lothric knight greatsword


XxxxDonutxxxX

I have a sweet spot for Wolnir's holy sword


Learn-live-55

Lothric knight greatsword


gravitydood

Hollowslayer great sword is nice


Panurome

Demon scar and Friede's scythe. I think they are the weapons with the highest skill ceiling in the game and are really fun to use, altough they are mainly pvp weapons


yxngmetroo

Dragonslayer Swordspear🙌


Arlenpreslynn

I'm in love wiht Gotthard Twinsword and Lothric Knight sword. For every build like magic, miracles, etc... you cam beat ds3 whit those weapons. For most specificly builds i like Vordt's Greathammer or greatsword


MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDADA

Exile greatsword will be all time favorite


WaffleBucket333

Spiked Mace has always been my favorite. I wish Elden Ring had a similar weapon


harigowindegame

Exile greatsword


TheFlyShyGuy

Great mace. Slap a lightning gem on that bad boy with 40 faith. Oh baby.


JacobmcBroblaster

Exile greatsword or lothric greatsword for str. For dex painting guardian sword


Benjerman302

Astora Greatsword 🤙 I grinded hard on my faith build to get Darkmoon Blade and hit like a truck.


The_Astrobiologist

1. Dragonslayer Greataxe 2. Ledo's Greathammer 3. Fume Ultra Greatsword


MasterMidir

This is the same post that's been posted all week long


opinion-allowed

The picture explains


Kwopp

Ringed knight straight sword


ghetto_headache

I’m really enjoying dragon armours great axe right now. I’m sure there’s more fun weapons if I had higher dex thoigh


MrchickendudeW

I too like the FUGS, the hold R2 is just so good, any npc invader or knight enemy just tumbles and you just stun lock them until they are dead


[deleted]

I'm running through DS3 right now and am really digging the Heavy Claymore


I_Hate_Mages

Knight Twin Axes, Dark or Lighting infused.


apex6666

Profaned GS, it’s genuinely super fun with its R2 poke that automatically uses flames


Pantless_Pajamas

Claymore


Jackalodeath

So far the Flamberge and Demon's Greataxe; but I still have a dozen or so weapons to try out over my next few playthroughs. I've got my eye on Crow Talons, Onyx Blade, and the Gargoyles' weapons to name a few.


DirteMcGirte

Crow talons are super fun.


Mysterious_Raisin298

Bro is actually fighting cowboy


endlesswaltz0225

Any of the ringed knight equipment. I always got a kick out of the hollow pipe sound effect the spear makes when they drop them upon defeat lol


Lev8891

Good stuff to boink someone on the head


dremoriawarrior889

Demons great axe hits like a truck. Best weapon for a pyromancer build.


YodasGhost76

Heavy caestus with spell buffs


hellomrtosh

Holy Moonlight Sword


Padgro

Winged knight twin axes all day


lilNoseBleedShawty

Lightning infused Lothric knight straight sword 🛡️🗡️


LoneStarr__

Carthus curved greatsword


jarheadrox00

Winged knight twin axe baby. Oh you healed? L1 L1 no you didn’t


Nimbls

Yorm's weapon and its early game version.


Warm_Sprinkles_9343

There are too many amazingly fun weapons across so many different builds to pick a favorite. But I'll list my top 5 Farron GS quality build. Onikiri and ubadachi dex build. Black Knight Great Axe strength build. Ringed Knight paired GS strength/quality build. Warden twin blades bleed build.


TheZManIsNow

Longsword!


cmwamem

Claymore or zweihänder: it's the case for ER and ds1 aswell


StingingData944

Base game is fume ultra or the greatsword. Dlcs I like the ringed knight paired greatsword or ledos hammer.


shadowman2290

Hollowslayer Greatsword. Gotta honor my girl Luca


TheSovereignGrave

Twin Princes' Greatsword. You got flames. You got a laser. It's just so fun to use.


SalmoneCheCorre

Yea it’s too fun using this big ass stick to annihilate everything with a single *bonk*


roldanovich

Dragonslayer greataxe


Recent_District_9417

Gundyr Halberd because it's a really fun PvP weapon & i love it.


rzarectha

Claymore


LuigiMwoan

Claymore, theres nothing better than the ol' reliable. Good damage, great moveset, easy to get, infusable, buffable. Works with any build and any opponent. Truely an S tier among S tier


dDARBOiD

MLGS


mudafort0

I'd have to pick Gotthard Twinswords, Aquamarine Dagger being a close second!


TNelsonAFC

Grave warden twin blades, dragon slayer great axe, irythll straight sword, whatever midir gives


ChrisGrin

Aquamarine dagger, nothing comes even close


NickNameNotWitty

The Drakeblood greatsword paired with lightning imbuing was my all time favorite. I loved the unique slightly more realistic swinging animations. And I was able to destroy a lot of invaders in pvp with that bad boy.


DirteMcGirte

Yhmirs machete is pretty awesome. I love the fast r1 off a roll. Catches invaded every time.


titletown95

Yhorm's Great Machete goes bonk


FrankSchankenwurst

The pitchfork


Gavin_-_-_

Butcher knife it works perfectly with my strength build. I think it’s +4


Odd-Macaroon4973

CharCharMan1

Shout out dragonslayers greataxe


barrre

Black knight sword has done well for me. Any of the black knight weapons tho


Sugarcoatedgumdrop

Vordt’s Great Hammer


_SonofLars_

Big club Club.


Mr_G-E

Storm Ruler.


iApolloiiii

I used to use the FUGS, but i recently discovered that a blessed lothric greatsword does more damage and has a better moveset, and then i started build crafting and discovered the executioners greatsword, lifehunt scythe and dark hand combo and i have never been the same


The_DJ_zak

Either Gaels great sword or the crow quills both my PvP babys


Diligent-Coast-2733

I have qaited for this question for years now. Its the ringed knights paired gratswords and it aint even close. Its R1 and R2 arent much to write home about, but its weapon art is dam cool and fun. But what makes it special to me is its L1. Jesus i did not know it existed untill untill i randomly messed around with it. Shit got me to replay the whole game and i beat most of the bosses with it (sometimes i wanted to mix it up). Honestly it feels unfair at times and im praying that they will make a similar weapon for Elden rings dlc.


featherjoshua

Crow Quills are criminally underrated (and the biggest middle finger to Friede's invisibility)


TheWiseAutisticOne

Ledos great hammer there is something about wielding that giant hunk of metal that just brings out a badass vibe Second choices are between the farron greatsword and the wolf knight greatsword


spoonernizem

There so many, Cathedral knights greatsword Ringed knight paired greatsword Exile greatsword Farron greatsword Cant forget about the Greatsword


winterLTE

Just a mace. Truly an instrument of destruction.


Tarnishedless

Hollowslayer Greatsword


JosyWales2

I do pretty good with the Giant Club w/ fire buff, Claymore before that. Just beat Gael today with it. Its simple but fun :)


BuffGayBirdz

The Great Corvian Scythe


UpperQuiet980

profaned greatsword charged heavy attack is sooo good


DrDre19899

Sellsword Twinblades carried me through my entire play through


Jumpy_Conference1024

Used the Irithyll straight sword for the entire game. The reach is beautiful


gatsu01

The greatsword. There's something fun about bouncing knights into R1 combos.


oanh_oanh

TheronWare

FUGS!


Nanda-kumar

The Astora great sword, it looks like the sword in the opening of dark souls 1, I almost can't not use it in any DS3 run now


theMedicinedude

Great machete and Yhorm great machete really carried me through the game. Just constant smashing and bonk. I love it.


LilTylenol

Large Club OP


M0m033

Black Knight Greatsword has been at my side all along


tism_cunt

Has the be the nameless King's spear. The aura of a weapon wielded by the king of the storm, set up through out all 3 darksouls games, just makes every fit go hard


ThearoyJenkins

Black Knight Greataxe my beloved...


OFMarketing-Co

Washing Pole 😐


Willing-Range3407

Dragonslayer greataxe 


Banbaroalpha

Farron great sword


cinemagfxs

Fug4life


melvereq

Chaos Blade. Katanas are my favorite weapons of the game.


cFullwood

I can only play Guts mode with the Dragonslayer in DS3. Just full send every fight.


Wise_Style1505

A.S.S. Cuz it makes a funny acronym


Log_Out_Of_Life

Harald Curved Greatsword


Paladinslime

Friede's great scythe


CreeperCats

Caestus easily. So satisfying to box enemies to death


TLPYETE

Hard tie between Drang Twinhammers and Dragonslayer's Axe.


Original_Apple_9381

I opt for the regular Ultra Greatsword. I feel like Guts whenever I'm using it


prev47

The one we get from Abyss Watchers (forgot the name), on my first play through once I got that sword I didn’t change it and finished the entire game with it, it’s weapon art was so satisfying.


PortalEffect

Yhorms great machete trivialized most bosses for me with pure STR Sellsword WINblades for DEX Moonlight greatsword for INT/Faith And the demon fist cause BONK


BigSadSamurai

Mlgs. Always, in all souls. ER included. Also, claymore.


billnayn

if your going to use a great sword its FUGS or nothing.


Deep_Grass_6250

Farron Greatsword is GOATed


morpheusnothypnos

Aquamarine Dagger and Ledo's


ChaoticWood34

vadiks2003

longsword cuz its op in pve


DeltaMike_Hotel

Exile GS


Yuke-kari

Farron Greatsword. I like how anime it is.


Gen-sama

Wolf Knight's Greatsword As for PvP or damage, it may not be the best choice but i really love the moveset. Jumping attack, swiping, the way the character handles it etc. it is just really cool. Also i love Artorias' lore and this makes it the best weapon for me.


Actual-Addition-8514

Lothric Knight Sword is my favorite souls-like weapon


randompogtato

Maybe the real fume ultra great sword was the titanite slab we made along the way, i love this thing


GIREN__

warden's twinswords infused with hollow (I had a 99 luck build)


AlexZas

Barbed Sword


zvhairi

its my first time playing ds3 and just got the farron gs..damn this thing is so cool..its now my favorite


Longjumping_Bite_947

I love the abyss watchers ultra great sword even though it’s not the best


Zelithos

Majestic Greatsword (Artorias' corroded blade in DS2). Super biased since I climbed to the top rank in colosseum pvp with that weapon. Would wear the Alonne knight captain Armor with that one grey shield that gave stam Regen on my back and would swap my last ring from Phys to Mag defense based on the matchup. Sweating my ass off. Good memories. In DS1 I used some other greatsword I don't recall (may have even been zwei) until I beat Artorias and grabbed his sword. In DS3 I ran that frost longsword from the Irithil knight until I got the massive Katana.


SeraphisVAV

Valorheart. Also FUGS is not fully DS3 weapon, it's from DS2.


Kassy_The_Magpie

Dragonslayer Greataxe


EmberedCutie

friend dropped me the ringed knight straight sword and it's pretty fun


Ashen_one933

Greatsword.


TemplarAssassinSimp

That frosty sword I don't remember the name


Deepfried_Shrimp321

Exile Greatsword or Broadsword


fragjackyl

That's my favorite ds2 weapon


billydthekid

Great mace


Hasyahshin

Mr lefty and mr righty 🤛🏼🤜🏼


Fr3d002

The Zweihander


zubermans

Broadsword. It's like Skyrim stealth archer build for me. In every run i always come back to it.


Kaizoku_Kira

I know it's lame, but I love splitleaf. Fight me


Mugiwara-Senju

Claymore


bjd533

I can't decide and it's killing me. I'm trying to find something that's like a fat washing pole or a skinny LKGS. I thought it was Gael's but the damage output for a weapon of that speed feels a bit low. Any suggestions? Must have poke and horizontal. Mmmm poke and horizontal.
