Dark Greatsword is a hex in Dark Souls II: Crown of the Sunken King.
In-Game Description
- Hex adapted from an ancient sorcery.
Brandish Dark like a sword.
- By its nature Dark is normally tranquil,
but this hex releases a focused blade of Dark in an uncharacteristic flash of brilliance.
- Catalyst: staff
Availability[]
Found near the Priestess' Chamber bonfire in Shulva, Sanctum City. The player must drop down onto the platform from an elevator near the bonfire.
General information[]
Similar to Soul Greatsword; when cast, creates a greatsword composed of Dark energy, which the player swings in a horizontal arc in front of them. However, unlike Soul Greatsword, it also unleashes a mid-ranged projectile in mid-swing, similar to that of the Moonlight Greatsword.
Notes[]
- The arc of the greatsword can go through walls if close enough.
