Every Black knight ive seen carries a sword. Sword which is frustratingly slow. Is the BK great axe as slow? Where might i find such a dude? is it slow too? thanks at forehand.

Re: Black Knight Great Axe
I only know of two, one in the Catacombs above the Bonewheel skeletons, and then one that respawns before the boss room, both can drop it but the second one can be farmed for the item. It is pretty slow swinging and a pretty common PvP weapon. But it deals good damage.

Thanks for advice.

Re: Black Knight Great Axe
It is fairly slow, but it's still swift for a weapon of it's size. Very powerful too but easily parried.
I'd recommend another weapon though, It's too boring to use i feel.

The 1H R1 is fairly quick compared to other weapons in its class. It swings kind of like a 1H R1 for a claymore, although its damage and poise effects are similar to an ultragreatsword or a great hammer.

Re: Black Knight Great Axe
Strangely it seems quite a bit faster than the sword. Weird, since it weighs double, I think. For a long time it was my boss killer; still is if I have a ton of souls I don't want to risk.
Normally I like the quick, rapier-like weapons, but I absolutely love the Black Knights' halberd and great axe, especially for the Four Kings.

Re: Black Knight Great Axe
Speaking of weapons, i prefer usin my man-serpent GS +15 or Murakumo, since my str is over 40 and dex 38. Although it feels nice to use Ricards rapier, for instance, cause its swiftness. And Iaito fully puffed, normal way. Liking the Eastern way of forging.callipygias wrote:Strangely it seems quite a bit faster than the sword. Weird, since it weighs double, I think.

lol what? bkga is the best axe in the game in terms of moves, the one handed r1 shas the speed of a greatsword, maybe a little faster. there's deff a lot better weapons in the game but they are harder to use and you will need practice, think of the bkga as the noob tube of dark souls.

It's a great weapon for boss fights, especially four kings.

Re: Black Knight Great Axe
I definitely would not recommend it if you are interested in duelling, people will simply riposte you given how predictable the weapon and its users usually are. It just seems to force people into the mentality of mashing R1, which leads to a swift death from anyone who isn't using a great shield. As mentioned, it is kind of a sign of a person new to PvP, is them using that axe. I love to Cos-PvP and even I really like to stray from using it with the Black Knight set given how common it is and how easy it is to parry. For PvE it is pretty good though.

Re: Black Knight Great Axe
Like everyone else has said, the black knight great axe is one of the most predictable and parried weapons in the game, its got pretty steep requirements and it cannot be buffed by resin or magic/miracles. And it the fact that you need 9 twinkies to upgrade it to the max which is 72000 souls makes it pretty expensive as well. Dont get me wrong, its a good weapon but there are better alternatives.

BKGA is great for PvE in NG+'s, if your looking for a bit of extra punch.

Re: Black Knight Great Axe
Why do you have to try and scare me away from Demon's, I really need to get that game. No places around here carry it though.
Even the dreaded gamestop here doesn't have it.
