Grand Lance | Dark Souls 2 Wiki

Solid weapon for a blindfold playthrough. On a run where you have about as little precision as possible, being able to poke for huge damage behind a shield is really nice.

What bonfire do you ascetic to get a second one in SotFS?

Submit

Lance go poke and things die

Submit

It having Strike and Thrust damage type allow you to exploit any ennemies weakness in the game, its very strong, very funny thay made it available so early in Softs.

Submit

The damage cost of poison infusion isn't worth it imo, you lose out on massive counters which is the one thing lances excel at. If you want poison, just offhand a quick infused weapon to slash mfs who rush you. Poison Heide knight sword, Poison Manslayer and Mytha's bent blade do the job better.

leo ring + this + crossbow + bonefist = bloodborne

Submit

Just tried it, omfg is it amazing. Killed dragonrider in less than 30 hits with this beast of a weapon. 10/10 would reccomend. Eesy to parry tho in pvp so maybe 8.5/10 cause of the stamina usage.

Submit

YOU MUST WEAR THE RUIN HELM

Submit

The BDR, Big **** Rapier. One of the strongest weapons in the game with how counters are calculated combined with leo ring. Power stance these bad boys and you can hit for 900-1100 per counter with just a 40/40 quality build. Very fast too. They are kinda heavy but not TOO heavy so you can still get good stamina regen.

It says C on both STR and DEX when fully upgraded but STR actually scales it much better. You will still want a quality build though unless you are going spells.

i like how in SOFTS they made this weapon from late game to early game, they wanted us to feel its power.

Submit

Literally OP should be found on later areas/levels invaders melt my poise cant do anything

Submit

for a weapon available right after the first boss this is awesome, good right from the start to the end.

Submit

i swear the durability is 105

Submit

People use this when invading me and i cant escape from the heavy attacks so sad :(

Submit

i am still on my first playthrough and i was a 50 str behemoth with a +5 dragon tooth and then i found this in the late game... easily my favorite weapon in DS2 until i found the Chariot lance...

Submit

I’ve never enjoyed spears and the like in the ds series, they always felt too passive for me. But this absolute menace has changed my mind, along with Yorghs spear

Submit

This thing is a beast in sotfs, could easily get you through the whole game. But pick it up right after the last giant and lighting infuse it, literally dark souls easy mode.

Submit

It's pretty good

Submit

Ultra Greatspear

Submit

Pretty sure it's got a C is Dex

Submit

Grand lance + old leo ring + engraved gauntlets = insanely massive damage if you crit on a counter attack

Submit

Dear future gf: please peg me with this

Submit

The scaling is so ****ing bad that at 50/50 raw still outdamages the uninfused version lmao

Submit

I died countless times trying to get this thing is the original game. It sucked. Then in SOTFS they put it in the tutorial area...

Submit

this thing is bloody righteous. is poison or blood infusion worth it?

Submit

Used this and the Craftsman Hammer my first time through SotFS.
Give yourself a good shield and a bow and you can cruise through the game, having an answer for any situation.

Submit

People complain Dark Souls is to hard? Use this. Want to get easy kills in the best Souls pvp to the 2020 date? Use this broken ****. Even in 2020 the thing is cancer and if DS2 does get a remaster like DS1 I hope FROM actual does more than graphic overhauls and balance **** out.

Submit

Shouldn't the dex scaling in the info box be a C?

Submit

The actualy damage is (almost) double the AR (tested on hollow bois in forest of fallen giants)

Submit

This thing hits like a well endowed horse covered in metal plates and spikes

Submit

The "Grand" in "Grand Lance" is very fitting. This is an unbelievably good weapon you get very early, in SotFS atleast. Sure, 445 AR doesnt sound that good at 40/40 and +10. But as the notes already say, the 160 Counter is disgustingly strong. 160. Combine that with the Old Leo Ring and maybe RoB+2 if you want to, and you have a hard hitting weapon. Its tracking aint the best if youre off-axis already, so dont spam R1R1R1 when you arent sure youre alligned properly. It*****box is bonkers in PvP. Its backstabs really hurt. The range is good. And its attacks are quite satisfying. Only real drawback is the fact that its so heavy. So making a Rob Flynn build with it could be a bit tougher. But overall, really good weapon that i can wholeheartedly recommend for Strenght, Quality and even Dex builds.

Submit

I run a dex build and this weapon, along with ds spear, are my armored boi killers, since dex weapons are sh**t against heavy armor.

Submit

All aboard the pain train

Submit

Should add to the tips that it's hit box is the size of the ancient dragon and can stun no matter what even if the opponent has over 100 poise. Hopefully if DS2 gets a remaster this thing gets fixed.... and by that I mean nerfed.

Submit

This thing Just begs for the Leo ring

Submit

Is lightning infuse worth it?

Submit

*Cough* Broken backstab *Cough* All jokes aside I like this weapon, and its backstab.

Submit

I cant believe I'm still playing and researching this game...

Submit

"It is recommended to infuse with Dark if you have 50 Intelligence and 50 Faith" Well no*****, if you have 50/50 just about everything should be dark infused.

Submit

GrandLance. Or so i call it: Poise Killer

Submit

cancer

Submit

I got back in the game now on the ps4 with the scholar bundle... and just when I got stuck at around lv 200 this weapon helped me alot, it has the perfect balance between range, speed and weight (stun locks anything with stone ring even one handed) to be used in any situation, the hitbox is kinda broke probably because its so thick, lots of fun for the ones that don´t like cheesing their way and play it simple with a shield and bow, plus it has a weirdly high durabillity of 130 perfect for the long and slow NG++ enemies.

Submit

Useless no location

Submit

"recommend to infuse with dark if 50/50 faith int" yeah but why dark in particular.

Submit

You need 33 strenght and 27 dex to power stance
