Hello Otz from 4 years ago!
How the HELL does your comment only have 4 likes? This is a crime against humanity!
@@ivelin_kolev haha, true
I just liked his comment right now :)
Farron dart is best great sword change my mind
I completely forgot Otzdarva used to be a Dark Souls player before DBD

It was far too big to be called a sword
.
Massive, thick, heavy, and far too rough
.
Indeed, it was a heap of raw iron
.
Yeaaaaaaaaah
Use the skull ring too for the full thing😌
It really does look like the dragonslayer sword
I know what you did there... ^^
Myazaki of dark souls is a great fun of berserk
I'm 4 years late, but god damn that intro editing was on point.

Im right with you buddy, also 4 years late lol, yeah that was some good additive blending for his intro.

Thanks
Dude, that is insanely well edited. The montage of different chars/swords/areas in the first minute is crazy! Very impressive, and thanks for the info, as always.
Rodolpho Pereira Neto you should see his moonlight greatsword review, the intro montage almost brought me to tears
Cant agree more
Ala o br
That was my exact thought
Rodolpho Pereira Neto I see you’re a Berserk fan, too!
The fact that you can hold the whole Catarina set with the shield and an ultra greatsword and have a midroll is amazing.
but... the farron fun sword...
Xtana Gaming Favorite weapon in the game hands-down.
Da_Swifta cmon man that thing is only meant for roll catching
I RP as an undead legion socerer and I find that farron great sword plus great magic weapon is very good, plus if you use carthus flame arc it looks like the second stage of the boss fight
The Ancestor I’m new to the game but have the farron and playing the pyromancer I can confirm you can’t buff it. I try every day I have been playing. Which is 3 days.
@The Ancestor you used to be able to but it was op as hell so they patched it

“Ultra Greatswords...the representation of Strength in the Dark Souls series”
*majority of these swords are best on a quality build*
Sorry, I can’t hear you over my 99 strength
Fume Knight's greatsword and Cathedral Knight greatsword are the only true strength weapons because they deal bonk damage instead of chop damage
Sorry I can’t hear you over my faith strength build that I basically two tap people with
@@memebeam8131
You better be using a club and not a sword...
@@xuanathan So those are the two i should check if i want a pure str build right? I'm using the Zwei but want my definitive weapon for PVP and PVE, that doesn't require much dex
as a sorcerer I never thought id be able to use a greatsword..but then I realized I had the Astoria greatsword
Farron Greatsword all the way. I came across it in my blind play through, and once I learned what it did, I never put it down
Important to note as well, that the fume also doubles as a makeshift shield with good stability and 80% physical reduction, justifying it's weight, and that i automatically block when you enter the weapon art.

Personally, I _LOVE_ the Greatsword.
The heavy two handed attack, when charged, is almost a guaranteed knockdown should it connect, and is probably among the highest damage attacks in the game, when it comes to purely physical damage. It also is one of 2 UGS's with a rolling attack that slashes, rather than thrusts, which is nice.
Also infusing it with dark gives you an A scaling in both intelligence and faith. I think a heavy infusion gives it an S scaling for strength but i could be wrong
@@lucalinadreemur9448 Yeah, heavy infusion give it S in strength
I was confused when he said infusions aren’t a good idea for the Greatsword, cause my in-game +6 Greatsword seems like it’d only benefit from being infused with a heavy gem. Did he mean for ppl who aren’t doing pure-strength builds?
@@b4thewar540 late but yes he meant quality build perform well on a uninfused greatsword
And for the guts cosplay
Black Knight Greatsword is my favorite member of the UGS family. Almost as great as its older brother, BKGA. The hyper armor you get with the black knight weapons is unreal and it never fails to amaze me how mercilessly it can flatten bosses and players alike. Those heavy attacks are out of this world too
My favourite: Greatsword. Guts approves this, nuff Said.
cathedral knight greatsword looks a bit more like it
greatsword is all black no silver yho
+John Lee McMullen atleast the cathedral sword has a bit more thickness and shape
scout wizardman the handle ruins the effect
+scout wizardman plus the hilt on the GS looks like golden age guts' sword
Just super sayin
Is the greatsword a reference to dragonslayer from berserk?
Two Genders. it has alway been, miyazaki even called the weapon art "The guts stand"
Alan Payne I like how there is so many references to berserk in dark souls but there isn't a single reference to dark souls in berserk
Miyazaki is a fucking berserk fanboy ^^
Doctorf 17 lol
@Raidon Sub iron dragonslayers armor it even fits with the description
FUGS will always be my number one in MY heart, PVP viable or not. shit serves as my primary weapon and shield. \[T]/
I gotta stick with THE LEGEND THAT NEVER DIES!!
Seriously tho, I like Astora's, but the Zwi just have more fun factor for me and I feel like it's got just the right amount of range and moveset variation to really confuse people in PVP, and is very effective for PVE as well. Also, it's moveset works well 1 or 2 handed, so even if you suck at weapon-swapping you can still have a chance at parrying if you have a shield in your off-hand.
Fume UGS is best UGS. If you've got more than 10 DEX, you're doing it wrong.
I have 28 ;-; am I wrong
VERY WRONG
Forgive me senpai
Bitch I'll come at with you with that UGS
eh, I have 20 in dex and use FUGS. why 20 dex? because I wanted the ability to try out any other blade at will. need more dex to match base stat, hunter's ring. my meta build may not be optimal for those other weapons but I have fun.
Anyway, love the FUGS, even after nerf. serves me well in both PvE and PvP.
That intro is absolutely phenomenal! Such badass transitions! Love this! My favorites were always astora, black knight, lothric knight, greatsword, cathedral knight, and profaned Ultra greatswords! I love many of the standard greatawords too! Awesome editing! I come back to this video every one in a while! :') awesome stuff! 😁👍🏻
+PvPSkillz
That opening was absolutely amazing! Your editing skillz at its finest! I love the MGS theme you used as well, and the use of the editing to go with the music was amazing! Please, Keep up the good work, and keep making the great videos!
P.S. Could you check out the Executioners Greatsword? It does respectable damage, and its weapon art can catch you off guard, and its Buffable! I Really enjoy it and its one of my Favs. Thanks!
i use it as well!! i found it to be quite viable in PvP and pve overall due to the extra FP. I never see it being used, and it reminds me of cloud's Hard-edge sword
JRBninja06 Yeah dud,, thats what i was thinking this morning!
+Sephiroth Destiny I was thinking of doing a cloud cosplay, just got done with a sephiroth one. I was thinking elite knight set minus the helm and some type of ugs with a twin sword side weapon
Cathedral knight Greatsword always looked like a giant fucking Dark sword to me
Have you seen otzdarva's video about the dark sword's "nerf"
+ManofVGames12 They didn't nerf the dark sword... THEY MADE IT BIGGER
Wait..that's what he used? I honestly thought he just set the size of the Dark Sword to a larger scale and gave it a greatsword move set.
Well shit.
THEY MADE IT BIGGER!
+Otzdarva don't worry the white knight will save you!
THAT WAS THE COOLEST FREAKING INTRO IVE EVER SEEN HAHA like holy crap it was so intense and an awesome way to show off the great swords
My pick : Black Knight Greatsword, can be farm early at Farron Keep perimeter. No need to worry and infusion and buff. The damage are high, good in Pvp and PVe.
That two handed charged R2 tho
Amazing sword, stamina burner for days tho!
Nick Hunter All the more, to train your reservation and attacks planing.
Has a R1-> charged R2 combo that hits fucking hard too
muttonsword Does that legit combo??
At around a minute in was the smoothest set of transitions I've ever seen. Props to whoever did that.
10:16 My god.. this guy, I DAMN MET HIM ON DS2 JUST A FEW HOURS AGO. Very impressed now
Funny how Ds2 is the most criticized but yet the best at pvp
Andrewo Mennah ☣ I wouldn’t really say that.
@@andryuu_2000 most build variety throughout the games in my opinion, and PvP is awesome. Only thing is, everybody moved to ds3 for PvP, and disregard or dont even know about the cool PvP there. It's got more of a strategic and decisive playing, but predominantly ds3 or bloodborne players might not prefer that.
I saw that reference to berserk at 0:36 ;)
Guts!
I saw that too! I was like "Wait a damn minute" and then chuckled. Well done.
it was too large to be called a sword, more lke a hunk of raw iron...
+ISenseAJamlessPersonAroundHere The great sword
we all did
Astora's can be parried now YAAAY
WarTitan77 praise the sun
got it patched? sad
from makes everything the same *eyerolling*
Yeah and that's a good thing.
I guess Lothric, profaned or cathedral would be a close second (or Fume/BK if you go full STR).
So whats the best ?!
@@schishne7546 Fume ugs.
That opening montage was legit the coolest editing I've seen in a long time. Those transitions were magnificent.
I use the profaned greatsword, because it really sings to me in a way. I use it in the arena and it absolutely decimates the other person or team. So this one has my vote.
I like my zwei for several reasons. 1)for nostalgia 2)no greatswords have great run attacks, or fast swings, and zwei is the easiest to use with an offhand weapon 3) decent moveset
the Legend never dies, Giant Dad for new DLC confirmed kappa
komreed00 Astoras greatsword has the best run attack. So 2 is wrong
Your intro with the weapons is the best in the universe
PVPSkillz, you have amazing editing and camera work. But it all requires another player to record you, does it not? Or are you recording another player doing some of these things? Can't exactly tell how you're doing all this, but I will say that it'd be a million times easier on PC.
So build a PC. Build a PC and come get the fistins. Your videos will improve for it, and you can get a free fistin.
I'm literally currently in the process of building my first proper good PC so can't wait to join the party and start playin with 60fps. Yes, the recording are done on my friend's PC for the quality in this instance but sometimes I use PS4 footage. Thanks man.
He should get a pc from Rich a ReviewTechUSA.
All hail praise, the parry God!
O fuck is this happening?
+Annex Orality what is with peeve and oroboro? they are very good
Am I the only one annoyed at how powerful the dex stat is this time around and how absurd it is you need dex to make half these swords viable. The greatsword defined strength in dark 2, now it's a quality weapon.
In Dark 1 it was also a qualityweapon...
AnonymMC C/D scaling at +15 is not quality. Thats a STR weapon. The claymore was a quality weapon with C/C scaling.
Simo Yeah its mostly quality builds now. A I mean you can do pure STR or a hybrid like STR/INT but they don't have the damage output a quality will.
C/D is basically Quality. The scaling is similar in Strength and Dexterity. You get more AR on a Greatsword/Zweihänder on a Qualitybuild than on a Strengthbuild. For me, thats quality, but that was (and is) discussed since the release of Dark 1.
AnonymMC
You'll get a higher ar on any weapon with a quality build. Even if its D that's still some amount of scaling. What determines if a weapon is quality or not is if both scalings are roughly equal, so C/C, and how much influence over the AR they have. The great sword gains way more AR per point of strength than it does dexterity. That makes it a strength weapon. The claymore however gained the same amount of AR for one as the other. Quality weapons don't favor one stat over the other.
There really isn't anything to be discussed. Its very clear among the community what a quality weapon is. Thats been the case since demon's souls came out.
I think the Lothric Greatsword for faith builds has more potential when infused with a blessed gem. The lightning damage makes it stronger while blessed. I have quite a bit of dex as well so it’s just the perfect weapon for me.
This was sick, you earned a subb, I mostly do PVE so I favorite the lothric knight ultragreatsword.
Heavy Infused Greatsword is also an excellent choice for STR Builds. Long range, big damage, and a good moveset with wide sweeping horizontal attacks make it great for crowd control.
The intro to this video is very well edited, great job man!
"Hey guys remember that awesome weapon that could block and attack? Yeah we can't be bothered to recreate that so we'll just chuck it's model on a Cathedral Knight Sword with a Black Knight Greatsword weapon art...."
Astora Ultra-greatsword is a really great weapon but my personal favorite will always be the Farron Ultra-greatsword.
The Farron cancersword
Lorian's Greatsword is my favorite for high level. Im currently playing a PvE pyromancer, so its rocking pretty hard. Killed invaders with it as well. I love Stomp WA, its just so good,.
Thanks for all of the effort you put into this. It was very helpful and entertaining and helpful going into late game.
You're an actual parry god. Great video! Very informative, supremely well cut, and presented in a way a PVP noob like me could understand.
Holy hell man, that editing is just beautiful. Thanks for taking the time to do all those move-set transitions. It was awesome as hell to watch.

Nah man, for da money it's got to be the Dark Sword.
Nope its the dagger
stop joking it's obviously the spear
No you stop joking it's clearly the broken straight sword
+DingleDad ikr? The weapon's name suggests it's outright broken.
I am impressed that you were able to balance your own opinion with an objective view of each sword. Thank you.
Watching you parry with a greatshield deserves its own category of awesome. I don't mean "that's pretty awesome" awesome, I mean the awesome that was used to describe God's wrath in the Old Testament. That kind of awesome, that makes you feel scared, and inspired, at the same time. Thank you, for opening this possibility to me.
EDIT: There's no way I am going to not make this happen on one of my runs..
Gut's Dragon Slayer.... da Greatsword
I think that would be an ultra greats word actually considering the size and weight of the dang thing
The weapon in Dark Souls is called the Greatsword...... I'm referring to that
It's actually a cross between the original Golden Age Greatsword and the Dragonslayer In DS1 it was just straight up the main Golden Age sword, but in DS2 and 3 it got widened till it was almost as wide as the Dragonslayer.
the grandaddy of Ultra Greatswords
im a loving the transitions between the swords at the beginning of the clip. great work, well done!!
Profaned Greatsword is my absolute favorite Ultra greatsword. Not too heavy, deals great damage and poise damage which is great for ganks!
And the weapon art which sets the sword on fire while swinging it in the air and gets extra fire damage. And it looks great as well. 100% one of my favorites!
I miss the OG Fume.
1) 23:30 Astora
2) 18:36 Farron
3) 17:09 Black Knight
For me what makes the Farron Greatsword so good for me is if you use it's sliding weapon artr while you and an enemy are charging at each other you can use the arte to get behind enemies. not only that the dagger can stagger enemies also if you have more stamina to continue the Arte its an unstoppable combo. I love this sword a lot.
Fume UGS saves you dex stats for... vitality, endurance... eh you'll have to put it in equip load... so well it doesnt really matter ^^
Tilman Rath more defence
Honestly rather just use Y'horm's great machete.
coolnobodycares FUGS was better before it got nerfed
Some people like dex, I could save my strength stats for all that extra shit
The +10 Greatsword with a Chaos infusion while wearing the Fire Clutch ring. Thousands of Dmg.
david2odo wow ive been maining an uninfused quality greatsword for years and havent once thought to do this
david2odo +10 Refined GS with a Crystal Magic Weapon buff and Magic Clutch ring.
+10 Dark GS with dark clutch ring, dark mask, sacred oath is a beast. My favorite build.
Its also a nightmare build for other players. Havent been defeated with it yet and its been over a year
Omg it does 577 and 423 lol
I tried a build of dexterity+strength, and I powered up to 10 the lothrics knight ultragreatsword. It does 800 damage infused with a refined gem two handed with 40 dex and 50 strength. I also tried the astoras ultragreatsword with the same character and same stats, and it's true that it's very useful in pvp, but I definitely think that the best ugs is the Lothrics ugs because of its damage and it's two hand attacks.
Zweihander. In all souls games, Zweihander
Holy shit dude nice intro! Those are some awesome editing skills.
Fume Ultra Greatsword is DS3 easy mode. seriously, Two-hand R2 staggers MOST enemies. It 2-shot the Gargoyles of the Profane Capital and Lothic Castle. By level 110, below Meta, I was dishing out easily 600 damage to most bosses even in Co-op.
It's a monster that I tamed and I accept no other. Sure it's slow. I just use the Grass Crest Shield and a Chloranthy Ring to counter to the stamina loss per attack and it works very well. What isn't killed by the R2, is killed by the follow-up R1. It's block is 80%.
It S-ranks at+5 too. So a full sixty Strength with two-handing it.. unbeatable. And yes, I have beaten many invaders who came into my game using FUGs.
I know it's so broken. The funny thing was it was even more powerful at launch but even when it was nerfed it was still top-tier.
You know what is even more broken? Raw Dragonslayer Axe with Sunlight Blade and high faith.
I cut through Lorian like through butter.
really? lower ar than Profaned GS or BKGS
It's my favorite. I love the counter roll jab. It's a beast. I have gotten out of so many close to death pvp situations with it.
+AnonymMC Don't forget Lightning Blade for added lulz.
i personally really love the greatsword, its so good in pvp. i think you should also do like a sorcerer build guide for DS3
5 years late here, but the intros are amazing. Love it.

what's the difference ? :/
+Silmaril69 greatswords can parried even two handed
+Silmaril69 Theyre smaller
What's the difference between a cow and horse?
Twin princess all the way
unrelated but honestly, I still love using the Claymore. I know there are WAY better greatswords outhere, but the Claymore just feels so reliable and good to use
Ghaulis Cabalis try the executioners Greatsword. It’s better than the claymore and is very similar in move set and it regenerates fp
To this day I'm using claymore. It's the best weapon in the game
Durante Exeralt claymore iz shiet git gud. No I’m just kidding, the claymore is pretty good for early on but post Wolnir it basically becomes unreliable.
@@Monyato hard disagree. I have a Quality build and still am maining it because the moveset is so good. Do others outdamage it? Of course! (I'm looking at you, Black Knight Sword), but do they have a more versatile moveset? Hard disagree!
Austin Growney dude for movesets I look at the profaned great sword and Lorian’s great sword. The skill move is just amazing be.cause it launches the opponent in the sky AND it flames the sword giving it extra fire damage. The best combo is using the skill, launching the enemy into the sky and then use a strong attack to finish them off with your flaming sword.
Jesus, the transition showing us the greatswords from 0:58 to 1:48 is fucking amazing, great work man.
FARRON GREATSWORD RULE!
Kuro Nyra YES!!
But...it’s easy to parry...
But in p v e it’s so good for aoe damege
@@wavedeloco really? Ever tried ringed knights ugs? That has a lot of aoe moves and its good in both pvp and pve

Now, through the ultra great swords, with Morgan Freeman.
Lmao
Just wanna say that intro montage edit was incredible!
Lothric Knight Greatsword: "Infuse it with lightning" Well now look where the blessed gem's gotten to.
they will remove astora greatsword's un-parriable rolling attack in the dlc patch next week, though i think they will leave the damage type as thrust.
Best ultra greatsword: This guys editing
Memes aside, the Zweihander gets A scaling in INT and FAITH simultaneously with dark or chaos infusion. Thing takes a good 3/4ths or more of a person's health with a solid hit of the weapon art, and hyper armor will get you through most trades. I'm sad to say its range has been nerfed, but it's still pretty good.
I honestly think the lothric knight greatsword is the best UGS, horizontal swings (catches rolls), thrust rolling and R2 attacks, and uppercut stomp ability (best stomp imo).
I agree
Ditto, plus it has 3 stabs making Leo ring viable
thrust rolling equals parry city though..
+Guy Lloyd then you need to master trick rolling
+Shaved guerilla split damage
Awesome Intro, dude. definitely subscribing!
"Oddly it does strike damage when its visibly a thrust attack" what? Its description says it has a blunt tip it's the same thing as thrusting a club into someone.
PLEASE do a ranking of the Greataxes. They are so good!
Saw this intro and had to subscribe. Masterpiece
I would really like to see a cleric build guide because so far I have loved your to other ones where you are a sorcerer and a pyromancer😆
I've met him using a faithbuild, so it might be possible ;)
same here...
And in some videos he uses a dragon's slayer built
Well, miracles are kind of shit in duels, except for the regen stuff that can be used but is duel charmed off, sad times. But I guess the suprisefactor could make the build work for you, you do you bobo!
Not possible. Miracles are too poop. Ive had far more success with Pyros. ( I hope he does a faith build tho)

zweihander was my first ultra so it will always have a special place in my heart, love that sword
I still love the Greatsword. For me its op. The charge heavy is money against mobs and multi pvp invaders.

BEST INTRO EVER ! :D
Do a video like this for every weapon class
IM SO GLAD THESE VIDEOS ARE BACK ❤️
I MISSED THEM
from really needs to buff the fume sword at least close to its original glory. we have ledo's hammer now, a weapon that holds over 700 AR of pure strike damage when buffed, why does the fume sword have to be so wimpy for its weight and requirements :/
you can still get about 850 AR on it with a 34 strength and 60 faith. Buff it wth dark moon blade and use yorshkas chine +10 (since it has the most powerful buff) giving you about 300 pure magic damage with 500 raw
That can be said for just about any buffable sword though, hell the claymore almost has as much damage as it.
Now its op again
Dani Törmänen how
we dont make mistakes we make happy accidents
OK then. I'm a happy accident.
the intro clip is very nicely done. No complains on the rest of the video. But the intro video amazed me the most. Good job on that .
Nowadays, the best UGS is the Dual Greatswords from the DLC
see that's what I was thinking. the ringed knights greatsword is amazing but, i found the black knight greatsword to do more damage. you need a high attunement and int. for the ringed knights greatsword(s). idk I could be wrong though. I've been using the black knight greatsword until I can wield FUGS
Not exactly. Not able to buff or infuse, and you need high stamina and slow attacks.
