Melu Scimitar is a weapon in Dark Souls 2. Melu Scimitar is a Curved Sword featuring moderate physical damage and a balanced scaling in strength and dexterity. It excels in both slashing and thrusting attacks
Scimitar of Laddersmith Gilligan.
Nothing notable about this weapon, except perhaps the luxurious jewels embedded in the hilt. If your aim is to appear dazzling on the battlefield, this might just do the trick.
Acquired From
- (Talk to) Laddersmith Gilligan after purchasing the 12000-soul ladder in Majula. Drops along with ladder miniature if killed
Hints and Tips:
- Upgraded with regular Titanite to +10.
- Uses Red Rust Scimitar moveset.
- It is possible to acquire two in one playthrough if you first buy the ladders. Talk to him for the first.and then kill him for the second.
- Due to its mediocre scaling for default path, recommended to infuse with Dark to pull it to full potential.

This weapon and the drakekeeper sword are good if you have minimal stats in strength/dexterity and you're fully investing in the other stats.
This thing weighs 2.5 more than the regular scimitar, yet does 5 less poise damage and 10 less crit. Why.

So is there any redeeming qualities to this weapon that any other weapon DOESN'T already fulfill?

Enchanted Melu vs Enchanted Falchion. Falchion has -10 attack than Melu, E, E, D Scaling(Melu C Int). Falchion is lighter (2.5). If your doing a full mage(High Int, Att, Str 18 and Dex 18 for MLGS) you wont be take to take scale up bleeding damage. Scimitar is ligher(1.5)...

After he has given you the sword do not buy the ladder miniature off him. If you are planning on getting the 2nd sword after killing him you will be blocked from picking the 2nd sword up. It will say that you already have the ladder miniature in your inventory and this prevents you from picking up the 2nd sword from his loot pile.
