I'm waiting on the Colossal Whips.

*Beast cutter entered the chat*


SomeBrandNewJacket

Great whips... *Drooling*


shmiddythachosen

A good sword whip is what I need, lmao.


WrysSeredan

Well, Urumi is pretty strong


shmiddythachosen

Not sure if you've ever used the Beast Cutter in Bloodborne, but that's more along the lines of what I'm talking about here


Sackferth

Started with Threaded Cane for my first playthrough of the DLC. as Soon as I entered the DLC area I knew I found my upgrade. Kept the cane on second slot for swifter attacks but the Cutter is amazing. A sword that whomps and also a whip that mega whomps. Trick weapons are so cool in general.


Taolan13

Beast cutter would be more a curved greatsword with whip heavy attacks, IMO, or a whip attack stance AOW.


TheEldenCasual

5 cinderblocks linked together by an iron chain


Ermaghurd_

Wait this sounds hilarious and fun af...


Wizard_Hatz

Mohgs dick, causes bleed and is so big.


Repulsive_Film5527

That’s that true big dick energy


ForsakenMoon13

Mohg wanted to be the bottom to his cursed-to-be-forever-prebuscent *younger brother*. He could probably be outsized by an eraser.


Wizard_Hatz

It may only be three inches but it smells like a foot!


GrizzlyIsland22

Yes but instead of cinder blocks, they're dragon heads that spit elemental damage when they connect


llllxeallll

And colossal daggers


InCellsInterlinked

...a sword?


llllxeallll

Never heard of it


Archemetis

Patch notes: Swords. Have changed the Sword class of weapons name to “Big Knives”.


GR1225HN44KH

I just want my Corvian Greatknife back...


blackviper6

cinquedea?


AliasAka1

Godfrey probably has one, but it doesn‘t drop sadly


StrayGod360

Str users and their fantasies


gammongaming11

i mean we already cut a braid off a giant and turned it into a whip, might as well cut off something bigger.


lessenizer

Great Whip: some kind of super flail, ball-and-chain type dealio Colossal Whip: using a dead snakeman or stretched out godskin apostle as a whip


GreenKnightGoof

That would be awesome


Magracer10

I'm really hoping for a great flail.


Salty_Simmer_Sauce

Weapon catalysts would be cool


[deleted]

Demon's Scar, where art thou? I miss you dearly.


anonymouse-07

Imagine demons scar in elden ring!!! Power stancing curved swords that double as a Incantation caster?!?! Holy shit


[deleted]

when I first discovered it, it felt like a weapon crafted personally for me. curved swords have always been my favorite weapon type from the very beginning of my souls career. pyromancy has always been with me in every game, and my go-to for first playthroughs. Final dlc, of dark souls 3, and it grants me *that* weapon? A dream come true.


throw-away_867-5309

A bit of a tangent, but I just love that feeling, where you find a weapon and it just feels like you're the person they thought of when creating it, no matter that that's impossible. I had that feeling with the Ringed Knight Paired Greatswords. I love giant swords, in any game. And I always want to swing around a couple of them. When I saw the enemy holding them, I thought "oh, that's pretty cool", then saw them *use* them and went "HOLY FUCK THAT'S SO GOD DAMN COOL". And then the game gave them to me and I never took them off.


Jarl_Korr

Dozens of us! I feel like I hardly saw anyone else use it in game


ph03n1x_F0x_

Truly one of the coolest weapons we've ever received. The power and edge I felt wielding it is unmatched.


[deleted]

Demon's Scar in my right hand, Pyromancer's Parting Flame in my left, truly a sight to behold.


Narcomancer69420

*Fuck* I miss my pyro back in Lothric


gammongaming11

did we ever find out why it started screaming when you used that one specific pyromancy?


Eschotaeus

Warmth. It’s a heal, so I imagine something something demons something healing bad. But I don’t remember anything from when I was playing and nothing came up just now when I looked.


BowserIsMyFather

Lazuli Glintstone Sword still irks me


T1B2V3

same with Lorettas scythe and Carian Knight sword


Valpuccio

Why the Carian Knight's Sword isn't a catalyst that boost sword sorceries I'll never know! It's item description literally says the knights used them as such to cast sorceries during battle ffs


ImurderREALITY

That kissed me off so bad. I did a faith build first playthrough, so second playthrough I did a bee line for that sword, before I even fought Godrick. If I had known it sucked so much, I wouldn’t have bothered.


coredumperror

> That kissed me off so bad. *snerk*


Bloody62798

Ah, memories of the Blue Flame


mad_mister_march

Like a dream...


Hfingerman

Such a sick weapon for pvp


[deleted]

It’s got to be catalysts. A colossal catalyst would be insane for a Faith/Strength build.


assassin10

A colossal catalyst with increased power but a reduced cast speed would be interesting.


ImurderREALITY

Erdtree avatars colossal hammer with erdtree incantations


Jasole37

Dark Souls 2 had the best DLC weapons. There was that one shield that could cast both sorceries and miracles. Or that twinblade that was also a magic staff.


HOMCOcorp

Or the fist weapon that combined Heihachi and Ryu's moveset from Tekken and Street Fighter.


Nonsuperstites

Bone fist. I used to rock that in the right hand with Alonne bewitched sword in the left.


Jasole37

That magic sword whip is one of my favorite weapons in all of video games, it wasn't very good but it was cool as fuck.


missnailitall

Or at least something that can cast both incants and sorcery. Like gideon's staff! It should be able to cast whatever at the cost of some scaling.


Urusander

I really expected this from Carian and Miquellan knights’ swords (glintstone for Carian, universal for Miquellan). Just put it on AoW button


Beneficial_Drawer_19

Right? Like it’s even in the item description that the weapons were doubled as catalysts… maybe we will get a patch or something in the DLC that makes it possible


[deleted]

Yeah a sword you can use to fight meele style and caat spells or use incantations as weapon art bht the incantations or spells you have in the spell slots


_Flix__

“Masterwork objective complete”


fro90sway

Ball and Chain Collosal Ball and Chain


maybeSkywalker

Finally the twilight princess link build


fro90sway

That's the exact reason I posted this comment!


vezwyx

You did good. First thing to pop in my head. Weapon would probably be hard af to use in ER though lol


Islands-of-Time

Popped into mine too. Cave of Ordeals, Floor#???, many many small skeletons. Ball and chain wiped them out easily like reaping wheat. It was glorious. Imagine that but on *Torrent*.


H8erRaider

Some of the vulgar militia men carry kusarigama. Wish they would drop it


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

The stance damage lol


eLemonnader

Speaking of ball and chain, am I the only one who's disappointed by the flails? I feel like their move set is super disappointing and their reach is always way less than I'd expect.


AwfulRustedMachine

That would be awesome, like the Kusarigama from Nioh


PintoTheBlazingBean

Still can't get over how there should have been a colossal scythe called the crescent moon


Clod_StarGazer

True, I just wanted a cool Int scaling scythe


Chimamire_69

Yeah shame the only unique reapers are holy damage.


GrizzlyIsland22

Like a big bat'leth


rawrz_xD

the game needs way more scythes in general I love them and there's so much potential


treybrenn

Colossal flails and whips


stabthecynix

Colossal flails would be epic.


QuarlosMagnus

Live the Witch King of Angmar fantasy


I-Am-The-Uber-Mesch

I imagine them like Father's Ariandel flail but bigger


sunlitstranger

Or like the ring wraith king’s from lotr


Shrodingers_Cat1701

Nightrider flail should have been a colossal flail. The nightriders themselves have to use 2 hands when they are dismounted. Honestly disappointed by the whole weapon class of flails.


eLemonnader

Yeah most of the different weapons feel good to use, even if their damage ends up being lackluster. Flails just feel bad AND also have subpar damage. Not a weapon I've ever enjoyed using.


the_colonel93

Bo staff. I want quick stick to bonk with


sweetperdition

this is one i actually expect. we already have twinblades, so the moveset is there. just need strike damage and a weapon model, maybe additional poise damage.


the_colonel93

It would be so fun to twirl it around like a Shaolin Monk and absolutely obliterate enemies with it


AMS_GoGo

A Faith Monk Build would go absolutely crazy with this


the_colonel93

Oh fuck yeah. Yes! I need that so badly


Suspicious-Jump4270

Honestly, there's a lot they can do with martial weapons (sai, bo staff, tonfa, etc) and it would be interesting because they would most likely expand on the land of the reeds lore


Backupusername

And so many blindfolds to choose from already!


Good-Understanding91

Strike damage for those crystal dudes


eLemonnader

Yeah a blunt twin-blade doing strike damage, with some spin and bonk moves would be a lot of fun.


CaptainAction

They could easily do this and just put it in the twinblade class. A wooden twinblade, dealing strike damage. Bam, bo staff. It’s so simple, so I hope they do it. If they really wanted to half ass it, they could recycle one of the twinblade’s movesets and call it a day. But for DLC they usually put more effort into the weapons and make them special.


the_colonel93

Yeah it shouldn't be too difficult. Honestly though it would be nice if they not only added a Bo staff, but gave it a special moveset that's more "fluid" than the twinblades. A little less stop-and-go and more flow if that makes any sense 😂 idk my brain is toast today


MiracleYang1

Ooh maybe the heavy attacks could involve grabbing one end to make use of the entire length of the weapon.


Nanami-chanX

they could even make them out of different kinds of wood too like erdtree wood and make it have holy damage like they did for the great club recently


Legal_Objective_8027

Thorg angry, thorg want bonk


KumbhaCallum

Need Sun Wukongs massive cudgel


WacDonald

Boomerangs


miguelsanchez69

Australia DLC incoming


WeirdFishes92

You didn't know Caelid is based on the Australian outback?


Inverted-penis

Can confirm, I regularly get attacked by invertebrates who shoot semen out their back when I go for a walk


[deleted]

Regular night at the pokies.


Suspicious-Jump4270

.............Soka build!!!!!!


Darkon226

"Boomerang! You do always come back!"


[deleted]

More weapon arts that can be transposed to other weapons.


FudgeControl

I wish the Square Off AOW can be used on greatswords.


shepard0445

Chained weapons Like the Japanese sickle chain weapon.


Ancestor_Anonymous

The vulgar militia literally have one of those too ITS IN THE GAME WHY CANT WE GET IT


shepard0445

Are those the small fuckers?


AtlasHatch

The small fuckers *that drop lots of runes*


Kootsiak

Their chest piece is also cool as hell for deranged looking builds. Pair it with the page hood and you look like a serial killer.


HillInTheDistance

I like it because it feels kinda, working class, somehow? Like, someone who fights giant mutated monsters but ain't really bringing in the big bucks. Kinda like a mix between a witcher and a regular dude who ain't got any fancy magics but a long stick with a blade on it instead. I use it with the marionette bird helm.


Zack123456201

I stumbled through Caelid suuuuuper underleveled and farmed those little guys until I could comfortably stumble my way back out


ICantTyping

Yeah the small fuckers that use Guerilla warfare ambush tactics to make up for their smurf size


SwagginBear3000

Kusarigama


FrancisMute

I thought of the ones that are used by the duelists, the Greataxe and the hammer tied up with the chains, looks so fun when they use them.


Spiteful_Guru

Colossal Spears Polehammers (Mauls?) They could maybe take the Cross-Naginata and Guardian's Swordspear, spin them off into a Swordspear category, and expand on that idea from there. They really do act more like each other than anything in their respective categories, and their powerstance movesets suffer for it. Though Loretta's Sickle would need to go in that category as well despite its design being more Halberd-ish. Oh well. I like polearms, can you tell?


Ancestor_Anonymous

Is the serpent hunter a swordspear?


Longbongos

It’s a giant spear. Same class as Silurian tree spear and Mohgs Sacred spear and the lance.


Spiteful_Guru

Designwise it could be considered one. Not exactly in line with what I'm describing mechanically though.


Ok_Blackberry_1223

Gun


Supafly22

“Parry this you fucking casul.”


WacDonald

Hunter’s pistol


tanzer_j

Isshin Glock


WacDonald

Think Sekiro! You think I wouldn’t climb out of my grandson’s neck with a gun!?


progwog

BLUNDERBUSS


GodOfGOOSE

And not an “classical” gun either, give the player a fucking Glock-19 and watch the world burn


Ok_Blackberry_1223

I think moonlight AR-15 is cool, but the AK of night and flame is a lot better


Bad-Selection

Personally I'm more a fan of the Godskin Uzi


PirateJazz

Those Golden Order fellas can pry my Erdtree shotgun from my cold, dead hands.


Bolddon

How many elephant rounds can the elden beast take?


e_smith338

Isshin the Glock Saint boutta have a rival.


donttrustmeokay

An assault rifle


ProfessionalGay07

That would turn the lands between into America


[deleted]

The lands between Canada and Mexico


unaimarca5

Bows with decent scaling 🥲


CaptainAction

They could fix this by letting you change affinity on bows and/or improving their intrinsic scaling. Wouldn’t even need to add new bows.


ABOMINATION_BLITZ

Yes, tho more bows would be nice. Some with new effects and aow would be cool


Divinum_Fulmen

It sucks. The best bow in the game is a spell. Enemies dodge arrows. You have to pay for and craft arrows. Some arrows are limited in number per run. And bows lack good scaling. I'm like. What happened?


eLemonnader

Oddly, and I think most Souls games have felt this way for me, bows seem almost like they're supposed to be purely utility, and not something to ever use as a main weapon. I'm not sure why the game is designed in such a way. Maybe the devs think it'd make the games too easy, but it makes me sad because although you *can* play a ranger-type character, it doesn't really feel good and starts falling off quite heavily in the late game. It's a shame because you have so many interesting arrow types. It is still a versatile utility weapon, but I wish they scaled like a normal weapon.


appleneedstoburn

I use the short bow cause it’s cool but if you literally just walk left to right the arrows won’t hit, you have to line up your shots and use a lot of tricks to win against someone decent. The smallest bit of tracking for close range strafing would help tremendously


[deleted]

Black bow.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ScowlEasy

Lmao that’d be hilarious


Berzerkerlord

Great-Flails! Give me the goddamned Witch King's flail.


TrisssssssMerigold

Make it inflict Death Blight too.


Thatll-Do

Ngl I kinda want generally more unconventional weapons like the giant candlestick thing or the rusted anchor. Gimme a chair, the mariner's horn, a boat paddle, maybe a keg as a fist weapon, or a gong shield


TrisssssssMerigold

A house on a stick.


GiveHerDPS

A mailbox?


Agent_Galahad

Ash of war: Special Delivery


Farfelkugeln

“Bah Gahd! Radahn’s on the ropes! *And here’s Tarnished with a folding chair*!”


Bad-Selection

I love this idea so much. They could honestly go nuts with it. A tankard as a fist weapon. A frying pan or a ladle as a hammer Braided giant hair as a whip.


Thatll-Do

They already did that last one, you get it from the Fire Giant And the ladle was a weapon back in DS2, but it was a joke weapon


Taolan13

Another type? No. They've got pretty much every "type" of weapons covered. What they lack, in certain types/categories, is diversity. We have no Strike polearm or sword, we have no weapons that can be used for casting (or casting implements that can be used as weapons), we have a distinct lack of moveset variety in Straightswords and Greatswords, and we dont have near enough variety of Paired weapons. Similarly, we have far too few "stance" style weapon arts, especially of the magic spell variety. Where's my Carian Battlestaff with an AOW that does Carian Slicer on light attack and Carian Greatsword on a heavy attack?


AlternativeRope2806

Bro I didn't even think of stancing certain things like that! That sounds so fuckin cool! I so desperately hope this enables battlemage builds.


sincleave

Yes please!


eLemonnader

As someone who hasn't messed around with spells *that* much, I'm doing a spell-only playthrough currently. My biggest disappointment so far was finding out Carian Greatsword doesn't have a jump and roll attack like Carian Slicer.


[deleted]

The only real ones I can think of are ringblades and hook swords. Other than that From has been basically covered every weapon from history lol


Astarial7

Not even close but the remaining weapon types are very culture-specific, mostly eastern ones. To cite a few : Dagger & Rope-dart / Meteor hammer / Kusarigama (the chain-sickle wielded by some vulgar militia), Quarterstaves/Bo staves (bonk with twinblade moveset & speed), Chakram... Hell, I'd like to see war fans or nunchakus, also they could create something entirely fantasy-like. Most European-themed weapons can already be put into an existing category tho, so I get your point. Edit : typo


skippydinglechalk115

it'd be really easy to make a bo staff too, just make it with the twinblade category/moveset, and then make it do only strike damage.


larson_5

Ring blades with a AoW similar to Rings of Light Incantation would be neat


Shawarman_PPS

I think odachis from samurais would be cool (big katanas for those that dont know). Or some trick weapos like bloodborne


Lulorien

The Nagakiba weapon basically is an odachi. They just decided to come up with their own name for it


Shawarman_PPS

No, i mean an odachi mora like nioh. Two handded like if it was a greatsword with a New move set.


chimpanon

Seriously we need this. We have the dismounter but its not cutting it. Odachi would rly spice up the Str Arcane roster bc rn we only have Mogh’s prongs and Marai Executioner to my knowledge


PVT-Part

i’m kind of tired of katanas BUT I agree that would be sick as fucj I want a str samurai build


[deleted]

meteoric blade is strength scaling


burnedbysnow

Like Sir Alonne's!


SuckDragon

If you want to count it as a seperate type of weapon then BB's trick weapons. Since I finished the game I've wanted them in ER


TrisssssssMerigold

Something like Simon’s Bowblade would be interesting imo


DelixMariner

A twin-blade one handed A bow two-handed


PumpkinsDieHard

Give me the Burial Blade and I'd be a happy ~~hunter~~ tarnished.


benoxxxx

As much as I'd love that, I'm sure they'll be saving any ideas they have for those for a potential BB2.


Ok_Love7358

Colossal flail and please


hexaverybich

Honestly I just want an INT scythe like Friede's from ds3


Just_The_Memes_

Given what I've seen in the params I expect to see the kusaragami? Ball and sickle thing the vulgar militia boyos use, as well as chakrams like the ones the crystallians use. They've built in space for new weapon types so I'm expecting they are considering it. Given they seem to want a regular and great sized weapon thing, or having two of each type of weapon I expect great flails and something akin to whips will be added eventually. I dunno if I want more weapon classes/types, when I'd rather they build in more alternate movesets for the classes that exist. I know for a fact they could make it so infusions or applied consumables can swap between alternate movesets for the same weapon, so putting in something like that would be a welcome piece of complexity that I would prefer over weapon classes.


Dizzy-Nobody-8414

There’s no rememberance in the game that gives a shield currently, they could change that


Cun1muffins

Fume ultra great sword! Fume ultra great sword! Fume ultra great sword! Fume ultra great sword! The grafted blade is the closest I can get to it right now and it's saddening honestly.


_cheese_wheel_

Personally, i think not having the nox weapons function like trick-weapons is a huge missed opportunity. The Nox Monks atleast can turn their hammers into shields, so why couldn't we do so too? Also (though this is not a weapon) i wish we could use a thorn whip spell, similar to those the flame monk enemies at the begining of Mountaintops of the Giants use. Would be a nice alternative to carian slicer i think.


Chestburster66

Weapons that could cast spells/incantations would kick ass


Vikzzaz

I want nunchucks. With Malenia's cool roundhouse kick as an AoW Also more fist weapons, each with their own martial art movset, currently we just have boxing. They did it in dks2 with bone fist, it had Kung fu moves.


sunlitstranger

Sekiro had some martial arts combat arts too


[deleted]

Trick weapons, dual catalysts (spells and incantations), and weapon catalysts


AverageXavier

colassal flails


Spiteful_Guru

Slow down pal we haven't even gotten to greatflails yet.


Vallod

Trick Weapons No weapon arts, just transforms the weapon like in Bloodborne I see no reason as to why they couldn't do this.


assassin10

It's a pity the Nox weapons and Urumi weren't like that.


JinnWriter

I wish the urumi looked and played like an actual urumi.


GodOfGOOSE

Quarterstaffs!


Grilledkhalcheesi

Chain Swords would be a cool weapon type addition.


Spoonboy13

Nunchucks and shurikens, let’s sekiro this mf!


dwaynetheakjohnson

I would love STR based whip options that are much heavier, something like the Beast Cutter


[deleted]

Ultra colossal sword


BOS-Sentinel

I want a tentacle, like that one hunters tool in bloodborne, but as a weapon. Maybe one of the Land tako's tentacles.


curtymcdervs

Flying Guillotine


LuminousShot

Ultra Colossal Greatswords... just kidding. Oh god, Miyazaki, don't! In all seriousness, I just thought it would be nice to get more paired weapons. Currently it's only fist-type weapons, the ornamental straightswords, and the starscourge greatswords. They gave us power stancing (sort of) but having a small selection of unique weapon combos with interesting movesets could be really nice. In DS3 the dagger and Greatsword combo from the Farron Legion, and Friede's Scythes were awesome weapons. Actually, I just looked it up again because I couldn't recall it properly. Friede's Scythe isn't technically a paired weapon, instead the weapon art is a stance where you summon the second weapon into your other hand. Still, something like that would be amazing too.


Hemphoster

Slings


SimplexFatberg

ICBM


Elden_Gourde

Is fromsoftware known for adding new weapon types to DLC? I don't think so. Plus what could you possibly want? Half of the weapon categories are just "thing but bigger," anyway. There are 28 types not including torches. Cutting out the greats and colossal's you have 17 categories. I want great daggers


treybrenn

That’s a sword
