Club is a Hammer and one of the available Weapons in Dark Souls 2. Club can be bought from Merchant Hag Melentia for 800 souls. This hammer can be upgraded with regular Titanite and is not compatible with Bleed infusion. It is a robust choice for strength builds. While larger Clubs may offer more power overall, the basic club's early availability, before facing any bosses, makes it an attractive option for a strength-based PVE build.

DS2 Club Hints and Tips

  • Upgraded with regular Titanite. Cannot be infused with Bleed.
  • While at first glance the basic club may seem like a joke weapon, it is actually an extremely powerful choice for strength builds.
  • While the large or great clubs might be better choices in general, the basic club is available before you fight any bosses, making it a very attractive choice for a STR-based PVE build.
  • Has moves from Axes, making it faster then other hammers.

      Holy sh*t, this thing has you ready for anything PvE throws at you. High damage, good speed, good range when 1H, easy to get, good poise damage and BONK.

        This is a DPS monster. Bosses fall in no time. Just use Flynn's Ring, Stone Ring and Ring of Blades in power stance. Combined with a heavy crossbow and you are perfectly set up for anything the game throws at you. No need to invest any levels in dexterity and Magic.

          I decided to do a joke run were I used power-stanced clubs and tried to get as strong as possible, so I got all the soul boosting gear as soon as possible. I just beat the sinner and I'm already level 80. I was joking when I called them my beat sticks but wow. This is kinda sad. I tried summoning the power of god to smite my foes with heavenly lightning, but hitting them with a stick was just so much more effective. And this thing has a wicked combo. Power-stance R1->L1. The second hit comes out WAY faster then if you just hit L1 and it's great for a finisher. It never occurred to me to mix up the attacks like that before. I wanna test other power-stances now.

            I was kind of disappointed with this thing. Sure it does good damage, has a nice running attack combo, but the range is abysmal. Also correct me if I am wrong, but it's damage against armored enemies like the Pursuer was greatly diminished due to it being a blunt weapon. Club +4 and it was dealing hardly anything against the Pursuer boss.

            For clearing levels, I'd say you couldn't do much worse than the Club. It's terrible range and lack of sweeping attacks can often get you into trouble when fighting multiple enemies. For some bosses, it's also delivers very little damage. The un-upgraded Fire Longsword was outperforming it for most applications. It's a fun weapon to use, but seems niche, in that it's very situational. Perhaps only good for PvP ?
