Acquired From

Regular Version

• Memory of Orro, at the beginning go into the left door and climb the stairs all the way up. There is a crane with a destructible prop which will lower a platform which needs to be dropped to. Then jump through the hole in the wall and you'll find the chest with the lance. Be warned, there is a giant in the same room just to the right of the hole you enter from.

Scholar of The First Sin

• Forest of Fallen Giants, right outside the King's Gate on a corpse. You need to kill the Last Giant for the Soldier Key to access this part of the area.

Hints and Tips:

• Has dashing light attacks that allow you to charge and stun your target, and a leaping power attack that inflicts large damage.
• This is the only lance that can be buffed using resins.
• Upgraded with Normal Titanite.
• At Normal +10 with 40 Strength and 40 Dexterity the Grand Lance has an Attack Rating of 445 (340+105).
• It is recommended to infuse with Dark if you have 50 Intelligence and 50 Faith
• The damage for this weapon seems low when just looking at the stats (445 dmg with 40/40 str dex) however the high counter damage means attacking after an enemy has just attacked lets the weapon hit for around 800 dmg per hit. Also a leaping power attack will instantly kill most enemies or players.
• Power Stance moveset is thrusting with both weapons, you can power stance with daggers, curved sword, straight sword, but not mace.
• You may also wield a Parrying Dagger or curved sword for parrying, to imitate a retro lance w/ parrying weapon style.
• Also works great for PvE when combined with a shield with high stability and enough stamina, although requires either good lining up of attacks or turtling for efficent crowd control.
• Infusing this weapon with poison is extremely effective in PvP and PvE. Charging with the weapon hits multiple times, allowing the poison to stack up quickly. Most enemies (and players) can be poisoned with a full charge attack and maybe one or two additional hits.
