Crypt Blacksword is a weapon in Dark Souls 2.
Ultra greatsword symbolizing guardianship over the Undead Crypt. The sword has never seen the light of day, and is steeped in dark.
Acquired From
- Weaponsmith Ornifex, traded for Old Dead One's soul and 10,000 souls.
- Can only be acquired in NG+ and beyond or by using a Bonfire Ascetic in the Black Gulch in the Hidden Chamber bonfire.
Hints and Tips:
- Reinforced with Petrified Dragon Bone to +5.
- Uses the Greataxe moveset.
- By default it deals Dark damage, it can also be infused with Darknight Stone and buffed with Dark Weapon, best for hexers with high Strength, Intelligence and Faith.
- Once infused with Dark, it deals an obscene amount of Dark damage provided if you have 65 intelligence + Faith above, a perfect melee weapon for hexers.
- At 45 str/dex, 45 int, and 63 faith, while infused with Dark and wearing Ring of Blades +2 and Dark Clutch Ring, it has an astounding AR of 870 (266+65 Phys damage, 218+320 Dark damage). With Dark Weapon applied that brings the weapons total AR to 1067.
- It receives S scaling on Dark if infused with Dark.
- Two-handed strong attack can knock down enemies, like the Murakumo.
- Wielded by Grave Warden Agdayne when he's summoned or aggroed.
- It bears resemblance to the Dragonslayer, a giant two-handed sword wielded by Guts, from Berserk (anime/manga).

Parameter Bonus: Strength, Dexterity,Magic, Fire, Lightning and Dark bonuses - The scaling multiplier applied to the [Attack: stat]. Scaling quality is from highest to lowest as follows: S/A/B/C/D/E.
The higher the player's [Str, Dex, Mag, Fire, Light] stat, the higher the [Attack Bonus: Stat] is (found on the player status screen). The higher the scaling letter, the higher the percent multiplier applied to the [Attack: Stat].
This resulting bonus damage is added to the base physical damage of the weapon and is shown in the equipment screen in blue numbers as a "+ X".
Durability: The weapon's HP, when the durability hits 0, the effectiveness of its attacks become weakened to the point of almost uselessness. When an items durability is low, a message will come up saying "Weapon At Risk!" at this point the weapon does not perform at it's best.
Weight: How much the item weights when equipped.
Stability: How well the player keeps stance after being hit
Attack Type: Defines what kind of swing set the weapon has.

His weapon was far too large to rightfully be called a sword
It's was larger, Thicker, Heavier, and cruder than any normal blade
Indeed it's was a giant purple popsicle.

Honestly this sword grew on me. It has massive damage but I thought the moveset was kind of lacking. It wasnt until I tried it on a couple bosses that i realized how good it is. With a dark weapon and dark infusion this thing is op. I use one handed for straight one on one to catch a parry, and use two handed for groups. Also love the jumping r2

If you want the hex that comes from the Old Dead One's Soul as well as the sword (for whatever reason) you should know that you get the soul every other NG cycle/bonfire ascetic usage (NG = Nothing, NG+ = Soul, etc)

For hexers with high casting stats but just enough STR to two-hand, it's still worth having as the stagger is something a caster doesn't get easily. Pair that with S in dark scaling with infusion and you'll be making up in dark dmg what you'll lack in phys. While stunlocking anything in existence

If you're not good with this weapon and you still have enough weight to wield it as a backup weapon, it's the best riposte/backstab weapon for a hex melee build.

Just so the wiki is aware, in Sotfs it goes to S scaling in Dark even if its enchanted with fire, lightning, magic, or poison. Best dark increase with dark infusion of course. I also have over 800 AR at 43 Strength and 50 intelligence and faith with the ring of blades+1

Berserk fans: it was too big to be called a sword. Larger, thicker, heavier and far too rough. It was more like a raw chunk of...
Agdayne: "You picked the wrong house, fool!"
