The Sorcerer's Twinblade is a twinblade in Dark Souls II: Crown of the Ivory King.

In-Game Description

A twinblade originating in Melfia.
Doubles as a catalyst for sorcery.
A rare weapons used by very few warriors,
owing to its dependence on honed skills
with both staff and sword.

Availability[]

  • Found in a chest in Frozen Eleum Loyce on top of a tower containing three chests that can only be opened once the area is unfrozen.

Characteristics[]

Doubles as a staff for Sorceries and Hexes; however, its casting animation is identical to that of a staff, regardless of whether it is used with one or two hands. Uniquely, this twinblade deals no physical damage, instead its damage output is made up of solely of a combination of Dark and Magic damage.This twinblade is only capable of being infused with Magic or Dark, in doing so the twinblade will actually decrease the attack rating, but raise the scaling in said element.

Notes[]

  • Despite the Faith requirement, the Sorcerer's Twinblade cannot be used to cast Miracles.
  • Unique to the Sorcerer's Twinblade, the two handed strong attack (which is replaced with casting) has been moved over to the two handed parry button. This allows one to take advantage of the Sorcerer's Twinblade's moveset, while still be able to cast with it.
